Hmm, they shaved about 5% off the Qunari, I'd wait until the game is at least 5% off.

Maybe you're a special hornless qunari, like Sten.  :P

Ryz, and the other poster, back on topic, if you please?

 

Fine I'm done with bashing my head against a wall anyway.

 

 

Exactly. So they should get all the news out now so they can get all the frustration out now instead of let it bottle up for 5 months.

 

Agreed. Pull the bandage off quick as it where.

When the hell did I say he was a paragon of standards because of that?

 

The warden has been gathering armies. Armies with their own generals. Also Alistair flat out says he doesn't think you should've been a warden if you go back to the camp with him at -100 approval so...yeah.

 

Look I'm just saying the warden poking his/her lip out after Alistair poked his/her lip out and said he was leaving if they did X and they did X gets no sympathy from me. Alistair was acting like a child. You either put up with it or kicked him to the side. Acting as though he put the wardens entire gathering of armies up to that point at risk is where you lose me. You end up with the same amount of GWs as you started off with. He gave you a choice. Him or Loghain. You picked the latter.

It was more that he was willing to put down his sword and possibly let his friends (Leliana, Wynne, potentially Og) die because he's upset that the Warden is actually acting like a Grey Warden.

 

Generals that we never meet & are never mentioned, whose quality we are not informed of.

 

Loghain isn't guaranteed to survive.  But I'm done.

No. Forcing you to be a Qunari without horns is like forcing you to be a Dwarf without a beard. Should only ever be an option.

To be honest, they're damned if they do damned if they don't. I'm honestly content, although this does bite for some of my friends who won't be able to romance who they wanted.

Content how? You mean because you think you'll like the system they choose?

I'm reading this as they are trying to do a 2/2/2 situation. In one sense, it sucks that some people will not be able to romance necessarily who they want, but at the same time, it is a great opportunity for them to talk about sexuality, which I am so happy for. I would be beyond happy to just to get a fully gay companion who expressed his desire in men, or a woman companion who does the same towards other women.

That's true.

 

I just hope it doesn't mean more Carth Syndrome's. It's kind of why I prefer that happen with NPCs. Least then they can talk about current lovers and spouses and I'm not sitting there like "...awkward."

I was only interested in Dorian and most people think he'll be gay, so the 2/2/2 system might work out fine for me. I just wish they'd tell us if that's what they're doing, because it's difficult for me to expect it.  :unsure:

I know, man. The waiting part is hard. Just know this, they are gonna give us equal options, cause that's the one thing they are pretty adamant about, though the exact number of LIs may vary. I'm betting on 6 - 4 companion, 2 non companion.

Yeah...that could get a little awkward to say the least. But even still, it's got me so damn excited.

So Gaider just posted in the resurrected "sexuality" thread in Scuttlebutt.  The gist of his comments were that, while he would prefer if the discussion of romances wasn't around "realism", the team is focused on creating more varied relationships, including not locking out content for LI's who aren't being romanced.  He also assured people that the team is still focused on providing equitable options and that they will be discussing more about romances in the upcoming months.

 

I feel a bit better after reading it.

Yeah, I'm also think it'll be the 4/2 split. This with 2/2/2 does seem the most likely, with everything we know.

Bah, they won't give me the option that I really want, so whatever.

For those who didn't see it:

 

 

 

Who says it's the only limiting factor? We've not said how the romances will work at all, so that's quite the assumption.

 

I understand the concern about possibly ending up with the "short end of the stick", but I'm not sure where the DA team has yet given the impression that will be so. I'm not going to tell you that your concerns don't have validity—I'm actually quite familiar with how it feels to have my interests treated as a secondary concern when it comes to popular entertainment—but I'm hoping that concern need not equate with panic at this point. We've got a lot of time yet to discuss this.

 

Personally, I'd rather the conversation didn't start with a discussion of what is "realistic". That's not a bar the DA team uses to judge any of our content—not in a fantasy game. There's an argument that can be made about internal plausibility within the setting, but the realism that Cam was trying to talk about in that interview was with regards to character depictions and the variety of viewpoints that can be touched on depending on the approach. I hope that's clear. If not, it's something we'll certainly be discussing more in the months to come.

That's what I'm betting on: Cullen/Scribbles - Bisexual, Cassandra/Dorian - Homosexual, Solas/Sera - Heterosexual

 

That's about as even as you can get it. The only one I'm not confident on is Solas, because he's in there to the the non-human male LI slot. Varric or the Iron Bull could easily fit.
