Even though you couldn't in DA2,companions were jealous of each other.

True. And I remember Isabela sad if Hawke`s LI was Merril. But it felt like there was no second chance for romances in DA2 though.

[Slukers]

My theories on companion-companion romances 

 

Cassandra and Cullen

Sera and Josephine

Iron Bull and Dorian

 

OMG Cassandra and Cullen would be adorable together! When I'm not romancing them, obviously. I also like Sera and Josaphine, but Iron Bull and Dorian seem weird to me... maybe Dorian and Solas   opposites attract!

 

Of course, they call all get together with whomever as long as I have Varric

Anyone refused to romance Isabella because she would not move into the mansion?

Nope. Why would I do that?

[Tootles FTW]

Borderlands is all I know of.

 

And that gawdawful Duke Nukem Forever.  SHUDDER.

Her protectiveness towards Merril if Hawke romances her was really heartwarming.

I was disappointed but I still thought she was one of the best options.

Another one:

 

Vivienne and Blackwall

* runs into the corner *

I did, did not like the fact that she would not move in.

[Tootles FTW]

I recall that Fenris was the only DA2 companion that wouldn't enter a romance with you if you happened to boink another companion before him - something that you wouldn't know until it was too late.  I wonder if any of the LIs in DAI will react the same way?

Its alright, I won't judge

That reminds me of something else I'd like to see in banter or in dialog with companions them warning you not to hurt your LI if they are friends with your LI. I found Isabela's and Merrill's relationship adorable and also found it heartwarming how protective Isabela was of kitten I mean Merrill.

The sisterhood was strong with those two

There's little problem with that scenario. IRL there are surgeries and hormone replacement therapies. Does DA universe have magical equivalent of it?

Not all trans* people have had surgeries though.

I don't know how I would feel if confronted with a trans* LI. Part of me would be pleased for trans* people that they were getting recognition and a character they could interact with and identify with. Part of me would be uneasy because aside from treating them with the respect I'd give anyone else I wouldn't know how to approach the subject if at all, and I wouldn't want to say the wrong thing through lack of knowledge- even to a videogame character. In all honesty, this just highlights my lack of knowledge and exposure to trans* people- so perhaps including one would be a very good idea if portrayed correctly. There's no harm in exposure and learning more about people with different stories to tell than my own

As someone who lives apart from my husband for work at times, it didn't bother me at all. 

 

That being said, all of our companions and advisors will live with us in DA:I, so no worries there

[godModeAlpha]

Its alright, I won't judge

Merril was alright, pls don't get me wrong I do like Isabella but I could not understand why she refused to move into hawke estate.

[TheJediSaint]

Yep. But her relationship with Aveline was more fun.

[Ajna]

Merril was alright, pls don't get me wrong I do like Isabella but I could not understand why she refused to move into hawke estate.

Must have commitment issues.

[Sporothrix]

I dunno.  I would personally want to know at the beginning of the romance whether someone was transgender or not.  I don't think having that sprung on you during the last lap would go over particularly well in game or in RL.  My reaction to this (and I think a lot of people's reaction to this) would be anger. 

 

I also don't know the precise number of people directly interested in a trans romance, but I don't think assuming it's significantly smaller than the number interested in straight and gay romances is unreasonable. 

 

Let's say such romance option was trans woman. If in DA universe there is nothing to provide actual sex change, then I don't see a reason for such romance, because it would only strengthen transphobic sentiments that they are just "men in drag who want to trick you into sex".

 

But let's say magic to make it possible exists, and the results are even better than in real life, so the woman in question was only born in male body, but fixed it since. Your reaction would still be the same?

[Char]

I think Isabela's husband ruined fancy houses for her
I quite liked that she was a free spirit who did her own thing, but I can see why others might have found it to be a bad thing

[Char]

But why even include it then? If its already like completely normal girl?
whats the point apart from a big controversy

Trans* people are people. They are not 'it'. The point would be that trans* people do exist and are among the most underrepresented and discriminated against people across the globe. I can't imagine what it must be like to know you were born in the wrong body. Like many disenfranchised groups trans* people suffer from a lack of positive representation in media. A trans* companion could be a positive, groundbreaking step for trans* people- and that's worth controversy.
As I've said above, as a group I know least about trans* people, but I would be very happy to learn more.

Do they have a set of genitals that are an utter turnoff for you? If so, maybe that can be brought up before sex. If not, than it's none of your business until they choose to share it.
