I too can't believe they out in 20 freaking dragon fights. It's a rediculous waste of resources that pulls from the actual game. I hear they even may have side quests. What is even the point of any quest that isn't required to win the game?

Thank you for agreeing with me.

Most RPGs have sidequests. I don't see anything wrong with that.

Haven't there always been optional side-quests in the DA games?

I just feel that character interaction and romances go together neither would have the same importance without the other. If that makes any since. :)

 

Yeah I'm playing Divinity OS at the moment, no romances but character interaction and I love it. Romance adds a nice touch but to me being able to craft a character and play meaningful conversations with decent reactions means more to me than that.

I don't really understand what people think will be accomplished by arguing for pages and pages about what the majority wants in Bioware games. Nobody here is qualified to say that. You're just working from your own bias and your own limited view, that's probably heavily tainted by confirmation bias. That's why I wouldn't trust my own judgment on how far the romances should go in comparison to other things. Bioware knows the feature is popular and they also know they have to balance it against other things. I would expect it to keep being included and I'm 100% sure that they're never going to exclude all other content for it. Where the balance strikes is up for debate, sure, but I think some people are really over estimating how qualified they are to draw that line.

That's because you're making it up. I've never run across anyone request that DA be turned into a dating sim, or seen a thread requesting it. So right now you're in the "I totally saw a unicorn" level of credibility.

We don't even know all of the romance options so there's no reason to complain right now.

I can't believe you would be ok with then wasting precious, precious resources On something that isn't even the real game. Race choices, companion banter, dragon fights and side quests. All of this useless pandering waste of resources. Luckily I'm sure the silent majority agrees with me. Only The Real Game deserves resources and by sheer coincidence I get to define what counts as The Real Game.

Optional side quests in all of BW games that I can remember. Even in BG that had no romances.

Threads don't have to be specifically about romance to be dominated by romance discussion. Every character discussion thread, for example has extended periods where nothing but romancing that character is discussed.

 

Sure, the character threads often are about romances. Those threads are not 80% of the forum. You said 8/10 threads, and I pointed out that in 2/3 forums, romance content is barely 10%. When you make inflammatory accusations using actual figures, there's got to be more evidence than "because I said so". 

 

Now you're just being rude. I never even said people were requesting that DA be changed into a dating sim. Could you kindly stop putting words into my mouth?

 
No, I'm calling you out on the inflammatory posts. This is a thread entitled "Romance". You start to talk about how people in Bioware games are overzealous about it and would rather there be no content but romance in games, and that they'd love it if Bioware made dating sims, all of which is quite clearly meant to be pejorative, and then act like the victim when I ask you to point out which people actually said this. Your clear implication is that a substantial portion of the fanbase just wants a DA:I dating sim.

What other conclusion are we supposed to draw from (i) people would be more angry if DA:I removed all romance content than non-romance content and (ii) people would love it if Bioware made dating sims and (iii) the forum is oversaturared with romance content?

Yeah, but this still has some players only getting one option:  Straight male elves, lesbian elves, straight male dwarves, straight male qunari, straight female qunari

 

Like I said, I imagine that all race/gender/sexuality combinations will get two options.  Beyond that, it will probably not be even.

 

THIS IS WHY THEY NEED TO RELEASE THE ROMANCE CHART. 

 

 

...ahem...

But race choices, banter, dragon fights and side quests... when you put them all together, they do kinda make up a big part of the actual game. :c Well, the additions that make it more fun ~

I want them to give us the chart, but I think they'll announce the advisors first, if they're going to. 

 

Scribbles is probably on the chart and we don't know her name yet. lol

Im not sure how you took that post as me saying romance isnt the "real game" that doesn't deserve any resources allocated to it? Did you read my very next post?

 

Sheesh, people get so heated about the romances on here.

Yep all that together makes BW games special. Ripping one out lessens the entire thing =/

Nope. Any optional content that does not appeal to me personally is just a waste if resources and is pulling from my ideal version Of The Real Game

Oh, I feel as if I must have some sarcasm going right over my head in here. That's what I get for dropping in so randomly. xD

Side Quests are part of the RPGs whether you like it or not.

I'm pretty sure she's using this as a joke about people that want romances removed or shrunk down because they're "not part of the real game", as someone said earlier.

Bah! these romances and side quests and dragon fights and specializations and extra companions (I mean we can only have four person parties, we don't need more than three companions!) all waste resources that would be better spent on The Real Game

Getting digitally screamed at and listening to people talk about how romance content is a waste of space in thread called "Romance Discussion" is too much for me. I'm out. You win. Well done.

Your opinion doesn't represent the majority. A lot of people didn't like not having a choice with race in DA 2. Bioware does not have to make your idea of a game. THe world does not revolve around you.

They'll get bored soon, honestly. It comes up in these pretty rarely. I'd just ignore it. Bioware isn't going to remove romances, anyway. lol

Yep. If romances aren't part of "the real game" what optional content is?
