I still feel like one of the gated romances is Cullen. It would kind of stink if he is, though, since he's the only straight female option, so far, but, he is also an adviser not a companion...I really have no idea.
That's what I was thinking too, but yeah, that would stink.

If he's gated, it'll be against qunari. Which would suck, because that's the kind of character I wanted for him. But I can find someone else for Ashtal Adaar.
Nah about the gated romances ... they said that the last two not-announced romances are race-gated
I just thought about the fact that since Solas is a self taught mage I wonder what kind of conversations are going to come up between the other two mage companions. Dorian being from Tevinter and all seems like he would be okay with the fact and might even be interested in Solas abilities.
Vivienne on the other hand is probably not going to like the fact that Solas has been an apostate who taught himself and has a rift mage's abilities (still not sure what rift mages do exactly but they sound cool) but will probably respect him to an extent.
I imagine a rift mage is not your everyday mage so it will be pretty interesting to see how Vivienne and Dorian will behave towards Solas when it comes to magic.
Edit: @Fondragon I never saw anything saying that. You sure they said the last two were race gated?

Not sure where i saw it ... i might be wrong (misread something) .. i would try to search for it but its 3:13am here and i am about to go sleep
My aloof dog just came to sit next to me. I want to take this as a sign of good fortune.

Actually it was that someone asked if there was still 2 race-gated people after Iron Bull was confirmed and I think DG said there are still 2 race-gated romances
Whether it's the final 2 romances or the already confirmed ones remain to be seen

Thanks for clearing that up.

Also, LadyInsanity had this to say:
@User It's possible someone we already know is race-gated. I didn't hear anything against that possibility
Also, LadyInsanity had this to say:
Yea I tried asking too, but Allan wouldn't answer 
Boop required.
I booped her nose and now she's giving me a look that says, "You suck and you should be ashamed." She's a sweetie. 
On that note, I would personally like to enter the next phase of pathetic displays. Anyone is free to join me.

Thank you!
Patrick Weekes clarified in twitter that Cole is not a LI.........come on!!!!!!!! Clarify the remaining 2!!!! How hard is it to say the final 2 are Vivienne an Solas?
Even a hint would satisfy us!
With three originally planned race gated LIs, the gating wasn't really going to be "fair", so I'm not sure they'd feel like they had to stick with bi options. The benefit is that it would have saved them an extra cinematic if they did pick a bi option.
In keeping with my notion that Solas-mance could somehow involve dreams...
Spoilered for length.
A totally weird thought I had, too...
What if Solas is romanceable, but ONLY in dreams/the Fade? That would be so weird, but also so interesting...
If a character is race-gated for story reasons, does anyone else get the feeling it could be Sera? I know she is already limited to the ladies only and a race-gate would further narrow the field. There is just something about her personality revealed thus far that gives off the vibe she could be wary of certain people.

Naw, I really don't want anymore 'hints' as everything being said including 'soon' is being twisted every which way. I hope they just announce the last two together and everyone can speculate race gating from there.
As for the last four options, I can see arguments for and against being the choice. If Bioware goes for gender split down the middle then Viv is in and that makes all the females romancable. Yet it was described as not every companion has time for your stuff. She is Ambition and has another agenda. She could also be gated for humans only if her snobbish personality holds true. Other then being female, she so far has not struck me as a romance unless she becomes Morrigan 2.0ish.
Blackwall is the Resolve and that is what makes me think he may not be an option. It sounds as if his focus is on his duty and saving people more than romance. It is not his age so much as this combined with the fact that he would be the third warrior, possibly nearing his calling and has a physical build similar to and is part of team vulgar with Iron Bull that seem almost too similar to our confirmed Iron Bull. Iron Bull sounds like he is dealing with Post Traumatic Stress according to Patrick.
Then there is Varric. He sounds promising to me as far as race gating goes, could possibly be bi and is handsome, would provide racial diversity but is hung up on the guilt surrounding Bianca. Is is true love or survivor's guilt? There is definitely a story there. He too, could go either way.
Finally, we have Solas, the Mind. Can love be a part of his life? He could be so focused on the intellect that he doesn't have time for the physical or it could be that is what is explored, expanding his experiences. Race gating doesn't seem to make sense on paper. I just don't know because I am not objective here. His VA is a fan favorite and it sounds like he is really tied into the story into an important way.
Man, I just don't know at this point. I know I have my worst case and my best case but it may be something in-between.

This pretty much reflects what I think as well, though the possibility of there being a Morrigan-esque situation concerning Vivienne romance hadn't occurred to me.
Blackwall - very sorry to those who are hoping that he is a LI - reminds me of a banter between Alistair and Morrigan in Origins, where she was asking him about a Grey Warden having to choose between his duty and his love. Alistair was a young and relatively inexperienced Warden at the time, which makes me think that Blackwall would not want to set himself up to have to make that choice.
I take back what I said about hints being satisfactory. They're not fun anymore.

Race gating does make sense for Solas, though, if he is gated against characters who can't dream. Again, perhaps there's something in his romance requiring you to be able to dream. Remember, he is our Fade expert who goes and takes naps in ancient ruins. Maybe he's attracted to what's in a person's head when they dream.
