I loved this about Varric's entrance as well and my first thoughts were, that was awesome and this one is going to be trouble, but so worth it.... oh so very worth it.

My first thought was "wow young Varric sure looks a lot skinnier, and taller, and his hair didn't seem that red in the intro...ooooooooooooooh that's not Varric, that's Varric." 

 

After that it was just about love at first sight :P.

Agreed :P

 

Speaking of writing, which story would you guys be most interested in reading. Varric+Bartrand as kids, from Bartrand's POV, or a cute Varric/Secret Admirer, mystery fic (with Sera and Varric teaming up to find out who it is)? 

 

I've got idea for both but I'm not sure which to write.

 

I'm personally a fan of mysteries, but I would read either :)

I was already part way there, the voice and charm just sealed the deal.

Whenever I like something popular, I kind of accept the fact that, eventually, I'm going to feel the need to say, "Well, I like [thing] but I wouldn't call myself a fan of [thing]," because eventually the louder parts of the fanbase get so unhinged that I don't want to be associated with them. DA2/ME3 was pretty much that moment for me. Yeah, DA2 was rushed, yeah, ME3's ending had some serious flaws, but the negatives got blown so absurdly out of proportion it's embarrassing.

I think I'm the only one who goes looking for axe-crazy fandoms :P. As artists like Poe, Emily Dickinson, and Van Gogh will tell you, axe crazy fuels the creative spirit, and I love me some fanart :P I absolutely hate it when I end up disliking something popular... all that wonderful fanart I could be enjoying, but can't because I don't like the source material.

 

I got into DA and ME because of all the blowback, especially over ME3's ending. I wanted to check these things out for myself, see what all the hubbub was about. Man was I glad I did, would have never been introduced to Varric if I hadn't :P

@fiveforchaos: Sure, different strokes for different folks. The thing is, I'm a nerd. I like debating stuff. Dragon Age has always been great for that, because you have divisive characters and issues (Loghain, the mage/Templar war) and give you reasons to support either side of the argument. It's a little frustrating when I'm trying to talk about something, and the person I'm trying to engage with just keeps shouting about how right they are and ignoring me. No big deal, internet, it happens. It infuriates me when I go to twenty different places, and they're all shouting about how right they are, and they're all saying exactly the same thing. That's when I start losing patience with the fanbase.

You're not alone. A lot of people seem like they want to know everything they possibly can before they even start the game, so their playthrough is the "right" one. It's not something I'll personally ever understand, as it seems to me like people want to play the game before they play it, but it's a desire the team is well aware of and I really doubt you won't eventually learn who all the romanceable characters are and who they will/wont romance prior to release.

 
sry, typed the wrong emoticon at first lol :)

agreed! I've actually been so pleasantly surprised at this thread because it is a place on the internet that people don't freak out like they do in other places (at least as often, and it shuts down pretty quickly when it does happen)

This is true. The bioware forums do have their good neighborhoods and their bad you can usually tell by the topic :)

Yeah, I've been tracking DAI since it was announced. It would be hypocritical of me to say that all the fans are out of control.

That was embarrassing <.< First time a dev ever replied to my post and it was when I was pretty much personifying one of Gaider's pet peeves. I really need to be careful about what I say outside the Varric thread, I keep forgetting that the devs actually visit those parts of the forums.

Ah :P, I'm always one for a good debate now and then, I have some rather divisive views on Blood Magic that can get some people riled up, but it's all good fun. I'm not as much of a debate fan though, so when things get rowdy it's pretty easy for me to move to safer places.

don;t be embarrassed, you got us confirmation from DG that we will know the romances before launch! He hinted at it before, but this basically tells us!

Well he promises that someone will, or says that it's likely.

Basically - he said  I really doubt you won't eventually learn who all the romanceable characters are and who they will/wont romance prior to release.

That is the most confirmation we have gotten so far
