LOL Whelp, that's something that hasn't happened in a while. My Likes are gone, but LIKE! Yeah, that's my hope as well. My Solavellan depression is starting to see the lighter side.

 

On playing the other DLC after Trespasser, TBH, I'll be surprised. With DA2, they had Varric's framing story to explain why you were popping around in the space-time continuum, but I personally think that's harder with DA:I. The two DLC we have already have been a bit limited in their pre- vs. post-game mentions, making it plausible that they are set at any point with or without a live Cory. But Trespasser is two years later, with a very different worldstate, it sounds like. I don't think they have a plausible mechanism for you to go backwards in time even with the War Table. My guess is this is it for your IQ's story if you play it. Plus, we know there won't be anything else released, so this really is it and I'll bet that players will just have to plan accordingly. 

Trespasser is indeed an epilogue and, as such, is only playable after the main campaign. Mike Laidlaw explained that it won't even appear on the war table until after you defeat Cory. So, the game will check to see if Doom Upon All the World is complete and if it comes back true, then Trespasser will become available.

 

I'm very excited for the new content and I'm with the others in hoping that we get to determine the final state of our relationship with Cullen.

^^ Interesting. At the moment I am happy that Solas is present in the dlc. And my thoughts went immediately to IB. I wonder if he can choose to take Qun's side when we asked him to stay loyal to them. :/

Also, just popping in for a moment (spoiler prevention) cause I am still holidaying and still pre-Descent. I will have a serious DAI binge on return. Bit sad about Tresspasser being the last piece of dlc ;_;

Sorry for double post but

Ashe @ladyinsanity
They wanted to make sure to put some "extra sauce" on the romanced characters (versus friendly-only). #BiowareBase

So careful yay for moar (romantic?) Cullen content

ARRRRGH. I was already plenty intrigued, that's NOT what I want more of from this DLC!

An order of Cullen with extra sauce? YES PLEASE!

But....but....completely satisfied is all I want. Who needs intrigue? (So tempted just to load up a save, dump him and run to Cullen...I'll have my happy ending BW, despite your efforts!)  *pouts*

 

Oh well I suppose my Lavellan run through can wait then, I'll go with a Qunari first, planning on romancing Bull and seeing how that will play out, I wonder if him going back to the Qun would have an interesting twist to it, or maybe no impact at all.

Ouch. Isn't looking good for the Solasmancers.

 

BTW, did anyone else notice that the only companion or advisor whose face we didn't see (barring Solas only partly turning) was Cullen?

I did notice that and I did find it a little strange but it could just purely be because of the time constraints for the video. They had to fit a lot in to a 1minute 50-ish trailer. That or scenes he’s in could be a bit too spoilery

Perhaps at some point during the two year timeskip, Lavellan ended up having a drunken threesome with Bull and Cullen? Now that would be intriguing as a plot twist, as well as teach Solas a lesson for just leaving us in the lurch like that! Or perhaps somewhat less risque, having Lavellan finally succumb to Cullen's charms during the interim and hook up with him instead, leading to an extremely awkward reunion?

You know, I actually headcanoned my Lavellan and Cullen having formed a deep affection for each other and the only thing keeping them from acting on it was their respect for her romance with Solas. They 'flirted' (I hate using that word, the heart options always seem so much more than mere flirts) throughout the game and that bow he gives her at the end I imagine he lingers a little longer watching her disappear into her room.  So yeah that could work, aww but wow what a complex Cullen could develop if he found out he was treading on the toes of a god...ummm.

Wouldn't surprise me if Cullen had developed some kind of crush on an elven or human Inquisitor regardless of whether he was romanced, much like how in Origins, Leliana was implied to have the same kind of unrequited feelings for the Warden, as did Alistair if you were playing as a female character.

 

It's not like two years aren't enough time for the Inquisitor to develop feelings for someone so they aren't simply thought of as being a rebound romance, especially when some of the relationships in Inquisition can end badly depending on how you play them, like Blackwall, Sera or even Solas.

The kicker is: your romance with Solas is locked in as soon as he dumps you, and you can't romance anyone else. So, you've been in a state of romanced abandonment without moving on for two years. "Insult? Meet injury."

 

Gah. I just can't even with this latest tweet. Back to the cave of depression.

My heart goes out to anyone who was playing on 360 and romanced Solas first, because they had to suffer the "Beloved and Precious" achievement popping up during that scene, which only served to be even more of a complete kick in the teeth.

 

And I forgot that it locks in even if he dumps you, drat, that makes it worse! So my Lavellan has to sit around for two years waiting, rather than seek solace from the dashing Commander of our forces... I never thought I'd say it, but dammit Dragon Age, be more like a cliched romance novel and find my second love from the knightly gent who's been there all along!

I avoided all spoilers for Solas romance, so when I actually got to that scene... *empty* I felt that after returning to Skyhold, my Quizzy would break some furniture. She had strengh for that. Warrior, Champion. If she wasn't that golden-hearted... Not furniture, but someone's bones would be broken.

Is that achievement the romance one? Yeah, I recently reloaded my Solavellan game pre-endgame to play the other DLC. I ran through the main hall and those pesky nobles started talking about how my romance had climaxed and they were going to my wedding or some such. I almost started to cry.

 

Pfft. Hey, at least Cullen's romance is likely to continue its tidy happy ending.

[Ariella]

I'm curious to see how both Solas and Cullen turn out.

I may not have romanced him, but I've always like Solas and I'm curious about his motivations. I do get the feeling that with high approval Solas seems to take a proptietary interest in the IQ, that's well as close to affectionate as he might get with anyone who isn't romancing him.

Writing him is a pain in the butt. Props to Patrick Weekes.

It's just though... Greg's voice... sigh.

Blasted mobile keyboard!

I don't think it's just headcannon that Cullen has a thing for an IQ whether or not she's in a romance with him because if you get to the final scene with Solas and you break it off, you can walk straight into Cullen's office and start a relationship. But if you let Solas break it off, you're stuck for years (denied all agency and too emotionally frozen to notice someone adores you?) Why would Cullen shy from the chance to pick up the pieces if he was OK with you jumping relationships voluntarily (and never asked a question?)  Locking the relationship in at the moment of the breakup only made sense if there were still possibilities. Still being left alone in the end is going to be teeth grittingly frustrating.

Now that would be intriguing as a plot twist, as well as teach Solas a lesson for just leaving us in the lurch like that!

Wooohoo! Someone needs to write the drunken threesome, lol. I'm pretty certain several people have written versions of the second, without the awkward reunion maybe, though more of those could be fun.

 

Edit for top (one of my favorites:)

Just got caught up now

 

 

I was camping in the woods the weekend without any internet and not knowing anything was killing me  I can't believe it's only 10 days away! Cullen was on a horse, the inquisitor said "****ing", Solas is back , there was so much to geek out over! Gonna go re-watch the trailer for the umpteenth time.

[Jewlie Ghoulie]

I've got to finish my game with Arienne, my pro-circle, chantry obsessed Mage who romanced Cullen. Though I didn't finish the PT I really enjoyed it and Cullen's romance is the only one I saw that enticed me enough to pull away from Solas. With this DLC coming out, I can't wait to see the Cullen content. Two years with Cullen? Arienne was probably as happy as can be till people messed with the Inquisition!

[thats1evildude]

Ouch. Isn't looking good for the Solasmancers.

As I said to every Solasmancer asking for a DLC where they get to be together:

Sigh. I'm glad I spent so much time years ago in this thread, if I hadnt, I may not have had that first Cullen-mance. And that romance with Cullen is going to see me through the utter despair that will be my Solas romance.

Pretty..
Now, if only the game could actually make the uniform look that good.

And I've got to wonder what Cullen might say to his love's rather 'unladylike' outburst. Not sure if, being just as pissed, supports her or having learned a teeny bit of diplomacy, tries to calm her down.

I would think he would wait behind after she dismissed the advisers, have a quiet one to one to make sure she was alright. Since it's the winter palace he might even try to distract her a bit by bringing up the time they danced there 2 years ago .

Amen. I'm so glad to have the sweetness and dependability of Cullen to fall back on. Solas breaks my (PC's ) heart, Cullen tenderly pieces it back together...
