I feel like at this point I can't even begin to speculate whether or not Cullen is a companion. We've gotten such conflicting info that could go either way... I just don't know, I really don't.
I'm surprisingly peaceful about not knowing. For tonight, at least. 
In spite of being not even a little tired, I need to try to get some sleep. Catch you guys tomorrow!

As for Cullen being a companion...all I know, is that I know nothing.
He might be, he might not. I won't believe he is or isn't until it is officially stated or I see it in game.
But at least I know I can cuddle him 
So much this, I was going to respond but you said it all for me exactly as I view it. Are you in my head? *suspicious*Technically, though, he never said Mages aren't people. He said 'mages aren't people like you and me'. I'm not about to defend the harsh language he used, but he IS right and did have reason to think this.
(For the sake of this, let's ignore Mage!Hawke for a second. This isn't about 'lol, he's so unobservant'.)
Mages can be very good people. Mages can also be very bad people. That's human nature. However all mages are, whether you like it or not, people that are in danger of being possessed at every waking moment. They're people who have a LOT of power at thei0r finger tips. So they are technically living weapons that can have their control taken at any moment if they're not careful. It's easy to say they have the will to resist, but, everyone has their emotional low moments. Everyone has losses in temper. Everyone has moments where their mental walls are weak.
Some of the fear of this is lost on the player, though, because the player character is never in danger of this part of the lore.
I made some videos awhile back with Cullen as a love interest in DAO. Obviously I had to make up the story. Never thought we would actually get a chance to romance him. I really hope he's a companion. He has such great potential for a character!

lol Y'all know that pic is on the first page of this thread.
LOL Not my fault, this thread is confusing with all its pages!!!
So I'm reminded of DG's recent comment, about us not getting our hopes up because of the number of lines GE supposedly recorded.
After the big announcement, I immediately thought, Ha! That DG, he totally trolled us and threw us off the scent!
But now I'm sort of thinking, he was definitely being sincere. Maybe he's warning us that no way is Cullen a companion, that GE hasn't recorded as many lines as our (incorrect) math was telling us. He is just an NPC.
This is very confusing.
Okay let's say he's just an NPC again... Would they be able to pull off an actual romance with just 20 hours of recording?
Maybe the 20 hours thing was just that one week, and the VA will come back for another recording session down the line.
Ahh what is happening??
Meh, I don't believe in the existence of advisors. So far the only support for that seem to be some fan theory and some leaked information about being able to make the keeps into hubs for either trading, battle or espionage. Ellis has time to record more dialogue.
I've gone from speculating to firmly believing that we'll get Scribe Girl as the last rogue as a bard, DHMG as the last mage, and we'll have either Cullen or Cass in a playthrough, not both (counting them as one companion the same way Bethany/Carver was). Remember where you heard it first, boys and girls, because in the unlikely case that it turns out to be correct I will gloat
I'm really looking forward to the next Follower Friday announcement. Of course, it could be pretty much any of the remaining companions, but there's a part of me that hopes it will be Cullen. It would fit very nicely with the LI reveal. I suspect it will be Solas, though.
Whew, finally caught up again from yesterday, what a nice way to spend a Sunday morning.

Also, big HI to all the de-lurkers, as someone who's only recently come back out of lurkdom, you couldn't have chosen a better thread and group to do so in
In your head? Blood Magic? I have no idea what thy speaks of.

These are really awesome, thanks for sharing!! The song in the second video is so haunting. Also your Warden is very beautiful!

It was revealed in a demo that the keeps have to do with espionage, trade, or military might, though.
That said, there's been no official word on advisers to my knowledge.
sooo hai again, any news? have they finally confirmed Cullen AND GW as followers? 
hey, i'm an optimist
Sorry, can't resist, beware of ME3 spoiler His name was Marauder Shields
This is one of my favourite videos ever! It always makes me laugh! 
(Don't mind me. Just catching up with the thread)
75 pages in less than 24 hours!
This must be a record.
Idk why Tumblr has given Cullen fans such a negative stigma, you guys are all actually pretty adorable.
I did ask about him being a possible companion at the signing, and all I got was a smile lol.
but most of you guys already know where I stand w that

Because tumblr gives everything a negative stigma
Okay... here's another question: Who would be disappointed if Cullen was an NPC instead of a companion??
I wouldn't be disappointed. Just knowing that he's in the game and he's a LI is good enough for me

Does it?? 
I love Tumblr but sometimes I just... I don't understand all the aggressive hatred that has infected that site recently.

*sigh*Tumblr can be so excessive at times...
I just hope he won't go back to being so mean to mages ("Mages cannot be treated like people. They are not like you and me. They are weapons") :|
*Cullen Snip*
He didn't seem to hate them by the end of act 3,he even stood up for some of them and if given the option he expresses his doubts about Meredith's decision to invoke the the right of annulment.
Though this doesn't mean that he won't be distrustful at all,though I believe that he'll be equally wary of mages and templars this time since he knows that both can be corrupted as easily.

When did he express doubts on starting the RoA? The only time I remember him questioning Meredith was when she wanted to kill Hawke.

Yeah, I know he did it's just that with all this bad stuff(bad stuff which is possibly caused by magic) going on he could go back to his "kill all the mages!" business.
I hope it will be as you said: equally wary of mages and templars.

During the pro-templar ending,when the three mages surrender.
