All of this, if your mind is going the way mine is going, is very complicated. Perhaps TOO complicated.

 

I hate to be that person, but I have my doubts about this game being able to pull this kind of thing off very effectively. The order that may not be so orderly and the chaos that may not be so chaotic, to those with the right goals and mindsets. It would be awesome but a tall, tall order for a video game.

It's like... I can see this being done in television series because it has been done, but video games? Hrm... like... the only thing that comes to mind at this very instant, that had a complicated story where I wasn't sure if the 'right thing' was the 'right thing', was The Wolf Among Us. But that's a more structured choose your own adventure. I'll stop with that now since this is a Bioware forum and not Telltale, but I guess that's the only game that comes to mind that pulled off a 'complicated' story well, in my mind at least. So it's possible. Anyway, I can't say much now. A judgement call will have to be made later. But, yes, I think we are on the same wavelength.

If we are to go with the theory that Solas may align with chaos, certainly others would have to do so as well. (He couldn't be the only companion, right?) I'm interested to see who else might be convinced otherwise.

This is my consolation if Solas isn't an LI. (Brofists the Fenris thread.)

I know, right? They're all such interesting characters. Solas is my favorite among the contenders (I am, and shall always be, a Cullenite) but all of them would make for interesting romance plots.  <3

I like call-backs and continuity and having how I design my PCs and select their LI harken back to how I designed my PC and selected their LI in the previous games.  I've also got a good couple of headcanons, one for an elf that sees it as the twilight of her race and wants the elves to breed with non-elves (she'll probably be Iron Bull's), and I wanna do another that's the opposite of that.

 

I'm all a-flutter.

Alright... So I was out all day with no internet access, and finally got caught up on the thread. I'm starting to feel like the devs just love torturing us Solas fans. I mean, seriously, its not even funny anymore (though I do feel bad for the fans of the other potential LI characters as well). Trying to stay positive really, but they're making it kind of hard. Like, even if it's bad news, just rip off the damn band-aid already.

Weren't the DA2 romances all announced at the same time (on Valentine's Day, no less), if I recall correctly.

 

If so, I prefer that. That's what I prefer. All the deets at one time, wham, bam, thank you, ma'am.

 

Because not gonna lie, my race choice is hinging on this.

Welp, totally snagged the image. And it is gonna feel like that a bit if Solas isn't available. It's gonna be so WEIRD.... My elves always seem to relate best to another elf. If Solas isn't an LI I bet my Dalish ends up celibate and possibly pining.

Fenris is very attractive physically, but I just didn't like him and I didn't like his voice.  :unsure:

I dunno about full on villains...well, except Spike. But those badboy types with the checkered past. Where it seems that things would have gone had the Bishop romance in nwn2 been completed, kind of deal.
 

I agree on the angst train, bit. I love me some good stories, even if they are heartrending ones.


Spike and Bishop are two great examples of bad boy characters who would be fun to romance. I don't really get that feeling from Solas, but we really know very little about him. I just have the sense that the description of him as your average apostate was very tongue in cheek.

So will several of mine.  <_< The rest will romance ALL THE LI'S  :ph34r:

You know the old joke, "If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans."   I think us speculating about Solas romance is a bit like that with the Devs.  

 

Haha a little bit.  It's fun.  Seeing how close some get, trying to figure out how some got WAY out there hehe.

HOLD ON HERE

 

I just caught this(it happened while I was gone for a few days) and this didn't cause this thread to explode??

 

Guys, he basically admitted that Solas is an LI, and that some of our theories regarding his romance are awful close (while others are wacky)

 

But...this sounds like a tacit admittance to me...

Yeah... Same here. His friendship arc was nice, but he's so anti-mage I just wasn't interested in his romance... even when playing a non-mage, I prefered Anders even after knowing how it ends... So... Solas somehow being involved in nefarious things? Bring it.

Funny thing is, I wasn't a big fan of Zevrans romance either. Did it once, and it was cool, but I'm just not as attracted to promiscuous mercenary types...

And so far my only options if i play my own gender/orientation are another promiscuous mercenary type and a Templar.... Hrmmm. Granted, i do like Cullen, but, still...

Spoiler

 

 

 

I've already started another DA II game today to do just that. :lol:

I wouldn't put too much stock in anything Allan said while he was drunk-posting.  Sure, he could have accidentally let something slip he wasn't supposed to, but more likely, because he was drunk, his reading comprehension was not the best.

Well, see, I think we're all too afraid to get our hopes up just to get them crushed... Perhaps were just a cynical bunch (cynical hippies.... Heh).

Liked his voice, liked his romance arc (friend path), would have liked him better as a rogue.

I honestly can't blame anyone for that anymore than I can't help, but to personally do the exact opposite,,,*sighs and shakes head at self*

Agreed. There are a lot of things posted in this thread besides romance-related theories. I know that he specifically quoted a post referring to Solas's LI status, but I wouldn't take it as proof.

I romance Zevran to my Lady Couslands and then marry her to Alistair.  I headcanon Zevran becomes the chief of her security.

Whoever is available.  And I guess I just won't do my elf that's afraid of having non-elf children.
