Hey! Long time lurker here 
I was thinking that with Varric, something that can give more hope is that every time I can think of in a Bioware game, when they bring back a companion from a previous game to be a companion again they have been a LI.
Examples include, Garrus, Tali, Isabela, Anders, Merill.
So they may be going along the same pattern with Varric.
(Sorry if this has been said before)
He was a bro in DA2. I think after his experiences his role should change this time. Especially since it's been confirmed he won;t be everyone's best bud this time around.
His role will likely change, Instead of his crossbow, i am going to give him a dagger *nods* and watch him stumble around as he gets bashed around the battlefield.
But on a more serious note, I don't see him as the romance type; Especially considering the whole issue with his crossbow and all, i wouldn't care if he was the race locked romance, but i'd point out i don't see it as overly likely given that he is supposed to be the enjoyable carefree fellow, not all romantic and such, I mean he mocked everyone and their brother for it back in DA2, how much of a hypocrite do you want to make him?
Ultimately i'm indifferent about it, but i do think it would take something away from the character he was supposedly available.
I'm going on a limb and saying its a good thing I didn't watch that video then. Most things involving animals don't make me sad they make me enraged. (I have in fact slammed a boy I went to school with with a a table and into his locker for stomping a poor mouse to death when it was making a run for the door)

Hello and welcome, thanks for your post. 
It has been said before but there's no need to apologize, it's always a welcome and optimistic thing to be heard again!
You waiting for what?
A Chance say you support his romance? Okay then? Good for you?
It likely won't happen.
Wow, it's fine if you don't wanna romance Varric. That's cool, don't come into this thread and start acting uppity.

Hey, everyone here has been super supportive of each other and like many other people on this site we're very invested in the prospect of Varric being a romance option. This brings out a lot of feelings. Please don't bring people down while we are waiting for confirmation. Thanks a lot and have a nice day!

Seriously, everyone in this thread are aware of Varric's chances. No need for you to come in here and rub it in peoples faces. So, if you have something positive and nice to say, then please stay and have some fun! Otherwise, then kindly gtfo.

I ran out of likes. But yes. This.
Did Varric's chances suddenly drop when I wasn't looking?
This thread pretty much only has one sensitive spot (Varric romance), otherwise we're all very friendly here. Everyone is of course welcome to their views and opinions, but in this really uncertain time I think we're all a bit extra sensitive about it and it's best to not rub the wound. It's the same for any other fan thread with an unconfirmed romance, I'd say... it's just this is where his biggest fans in the forums hang out and we like to stay on the positive. Hope you can understand ~
Did Varric's chances suddenly drop when I wasn't looking?
Not necessarily, but Gaider said the last two LI's aren't the Race-gated ones, and Solas is semi-confirmed, so everyone is kind of in a panic.

Short story: It's been all but confirmed Solas is a LI. We all are nervous about that last slot now. But we are hopeful!
Did Varric's chances suddenly drop when I wasn't looking?
I think some people have just gotten a little bit upset about the Solas Q&A answers. Even though it wasn't a confirmation, it makes it seem like Solas may be an LI which would leave only one LI slot left open. I'm still hopeful, though.

Indifference is being "uppity"?
Having the ability i suppose by it self wouldn't be a negative, But it wouldn't be absence of that be a positive either.

Waiting for people like you to waltz into the thread and rain on everyone's parade. I really don't care if you think Varric will be an LI or not, that's your opinion. Nothing more. If we choose to believe he still has a chance, that's our choice. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm moving on to other things. I'd like to end this civilly.
The downside of this awesome thread: You never have enough likes. Speaking of, who's brilliant idea was it to limit the daily number of likes? One would think that they would want to encourage people to be positive about things around here...
Remember: Varric lies. His thing about not liking humans? He could have been lying to spare someone's feelings, jerking Cassandra around, or may he just hasn't met the right girl.
And now I'm going to be seriously mad if Cullen is gated against qunari. 
Stupid gating.

And I'm just pre-menstrual Clock, don't mind me, I've had a good cry now...and a laugh, at the same time...
Not necessarily, but Gaider said the last two LI's aren't the Race-gated ones, and Solas is semi-confirmed, so everyone is kind of in a panic.
Did he say that? I thought he just was correcting people who said that he said the last two were the gated ones is all.

Nah he, corrected himself. It's not true that the last two LI's are the racegated LI's, but it's also not necessarily true that all the race-gated LIs have already been confirmed as LIs.

Ah, thanks for the clarification.

But its to add 'depth' and 'story' like....like um....uh......I"ll get back to you on that one
(sorry still feeling a bit full of vinegar I guess. Race gates still bug me but maybe MAYBE they'll be pulled off well)
I'd be just thrilled if Varric wasn't gated. It'd almost be worth Cullen being gated against qunari. Almost.
Mostly, as long as Varric is a LI, I'm happy with everything else they've done and I'll learn to deal if he's not.
