Moving away from selection and choices for a bit:
Anyone else worried that the flirt line wont sound like something your PC would say?
I mean I loved that DA2 had the romance lines change at times for the personality Hawke had.
I just worry that sometimes the only way to start a romance is to say something out of character for the Inquisitor.
Or even worse, having to take it because that is your only chance to start a romance.
To early to tell but I do wonder how the romances will start this time.
There is no "personality system" like in DA2 from what I understand, that probably mean that flirt options are "unique" with no variation (unless they get affected by something else, like the companion's disposition toward you or how you responded to a certain event).
I expect terrible romance "pick-up" lines....

"Is that an eluvian in you're pocket, cause I can see myself in you're pants."

Well, it's more your character has a set voice tone. You can be snarky, but your voice won't become automatically snarky as a result.

Quizzy: So...I just killed that dragon over there, want to go out sometime?
Companion C: Um...-looks over at the rest of companions who are all drenched in dragon blood- sure, why not?
Quizzy: Perfect. -pulls out date book- Let me just pencil you in...between Companion A and B...
Companion C: What? Pencil me in? Why?
Quizzy: -shrugs- Who knows how much time we have to live, gotta strike will the burner's hot.
Companion C: Uh...-stares at the Inquisitor oddly- Right...I'll just be, collecting some deep mushrooms over there...-hurriedly runs off-
Quizzy: -finishes penciling in the date- That should do it. Now...that nug looks promising for dinner tonight. -flashes evil smile-
Something like that? ![]()
The terrible pick up lines should be personalized for each companion.
Cullen:
"I wouldn't mind being stabbed by your Sword of Mercy."
Vivienne:
"We both crave only the best."
Varric:
"What other ways are you skilled with your tongue?"
Cole:
"I'll make you a man, alright."
Solas:
"Care to explore other mysterious realms?"
Cassandra:
"I have something that you seek."
Iron Bull:
"I want to ride the bull."
DHMG:
"Is the rest of your hair as nice as your mustache?"
Leliana:
"I'll make you sing like a bird."
Sera:
"Let me bend you like a bow."
Scribbles:
"Let me show you how I can use my hands."
Grey Warden:
"How about you vanquish my taint?"
O_____OAs long as I don't get garbage like Shep's "You want this" during Miranda's romance (I swear I'd punched him through my monitor if it was possible. So smarmy sounding). I'm fine.

Or like that awkward moment... your Sarcastic Hawke has just made love and while you enjoy being goofy in general, perhaps now is not the time... and as you, the player, sit there and feel your heart melt from the adulation your pixelated lover has just given you, your character's response is...
"Want a sandwich?"

He totally did. And the creepy facial animation he had during that dialogue didn't helpO_____O
Ryz...tell me Shep really didn't say that.

Shepard: ![]()
Miranda: ![]()
I hope the pick-up lines are deliberately cheesy if we play as a snarky!Quizzy. They'll all probably be vaguely embarrassing because PCs in Bioware games never tend to be smooth, but let the snarky version at least be deliberate.
Nah, she was totally digging the creepy act
Shepard:
Miranda:
Nope, I'm not even gonna watch. The fact that he said that completely boggles my mind. What the flying f*ck were those idiots thinking?

Did dudeshep said this to Miranda? EW.

OH. Idk which one i like more. ![]()

Looooool.
As I've said many times in multiple threads, whenever there is a platform for it... I just want Cullen to be an LI for male PC's as well! That's all it would take to make me happy!
I wish I was as easily pleased.
I wonder if we are going to get banter about the romances happening?
Since that was actually a really cool part of DAO and DA2.
Mostly since seeing those, made it seem like romances were not just character to PC interactions.
Like having Varric mention each of the LI was awesome.
At the recent PAX the devs stated that followers will comment about the romance between the Inquisitor and his/her LI.I wonder if we are going to get banter about the romances happening?

Interesting.
I can only imagine the teasing/insulting that will go on now.
With Varric writing detailed Friend fiction as it happens.
NPC: So you and the boss eh?
LI: Yes...what about it?
Varric: OOoh hold up I need to get my quill out before you go further!
LI: Ugh.
Nope, I'm not even gonna watch. The fact that he said that completely boggles my mind. What the flying f*ck were those idiots thinking?
It's not as bad as it could be, since it's not actually said during (or very near) sex. But otherwise, it's just about as bad as you imagine.
You need it, you want it.
All over your boooody.
Hi, um... All of this. ALL. This is EXACTLY how I feel about male Shep/Kaidan. My (unrealistic) hope is that Inquisition manages to pull something off as sweet as that pairing. I know they've only got one game to work with instead of three, but man, I hope they try. Male Shep and Kaidan are probably the biggest reason that the ME franchise stands out like a beacon for me amongst all the other games, with the exception of Dragon Age.
Huh, really?? Well that's a shame, if it's true. I think a "struggling with sexuality" story would be really great. Not sure how well it would fit into the world of Thedas - where we've never, ever seen anyone persecuted for their sexuality in the first place. But still, I would highly enjoy something like that.
I really wish my brother would post on these boards to offer his thoughts. He recently said he feels like the only gay man who did not like Kaidan/mShep. He said despite the fact that mShep had originally been planned to have a m/m ship since the first game it felt like fan service to him and he wished the mshep/Kaidan dialogue had been different than it was for femShep/Kaidan. It just really disappointed him.
He liked his Cortez playthrough better and enjoyed his playthrough as a femShep romancing Garrus.
He has an account here...I have been BEGGING him to post since he reads the boards and I can tell he wants to reply to some of these posts but he doesn't want the backlash for his ideas being different.
Maybe I will try bribing him to post. ![]()
