Of which there are many... :P

 

And to clear this up, it's not a dwarf fetish, it's just Varric, blame BioWare for making him so awesome..

 

Seriously this. Bioware has had some amazing Dwarves in their games - Varric, Sigrun, Dagna... All amazing. But that's not to say all Dwarves are great. Branka is a nightmare and let's not get started on the backstabbing Aeducan brothers.

 

We've never been closed to having an amazing Dwarf be an LI though so we're hoping and begging.

I get annoyed when people dismiss it as a kink, like..it has nothing at all to do with Varric's character?  No no it has to be sexual "perversion".  Did I want to romance Oghren?  Nope, did I want to romance Sigrun?  No I didn't but I know others would have liked to, have I wanted to romance any dwarf in DA before?  No I haven't...do I want to romance Varric?  Hell yeah I do, because it's Varric!  No other reason than that!

 

But for small people in reality that would like to romance dwarves, those that have played dwarves themselves to match their own size realistically?  To assume that is naught but a perversion is a little bit offensive to them and I stand behind them cracking my knuckles ready to defend.

I'm going with Vivienne, it'd be beyond stupid just have Cassandra and Josephine as romances for straight males. I'd say Vivienne is pretty certain to make it to the romance list but race-gated which is there is for "story purposes" in the first place, something that fits her belief in "status" perfectly. Secondly I'm going with Solas even though I would like Varric, I believe Varric's tale will unearth more about Bianca and it'll be up to us to help him with that, I don't think Bioware could write her out of his character quickly and effective enough for us to end up in a romance with him. Lastly I can see one of the romances being straight and the other bi, if it's Vivienne and Varric I'd say she's bi and him straight but if it happens to be Viv' and Solas I'd say she's straight and him possibly bi, who knows.

What I prefer:

 

Blackwall/Blackwall

Blackwall/Blackwall

Blackwall/Blackwall

 

What I wouldn't mind:

 

Blackwall/Viv

Blackwall/Varric

 

What I expect:

 

Viv/Solas

Second! I want Blackwall as bi or males only.

I already know I have Iron Bull for my male and I'll get through a female play through for Cullen.

 

But I needs me some Blackwall! :wub:

 

Sadly I expect Solas to be the bi or males only romance. :(

I did a video on this recently so I will be brief.

 

There is a difference between what I want and what I think will end up being.

 

I would like it to be Vivienne/Solas but it will most likely be Vivienne/Varric.

 

Honestly, I see real good potential story lines in all the remaining companions. Who knows? If the personality is interesting and the dialogue engaging, I may romance someone I would not based on what we know, at present.

Oh, I want to do this!

Most to least favorable
Vivienne/Varric
Solas/Varric
Blackwall/Varric
Vivienne/Solas
Vivienne/Blackwall
Solas/Blackwall

All bisexual, and of course I'll prefer anything with Varric. He's my favorite character and I'd like to romance him.

And Viv <3

I also am very interested in Solas and I think he is handsome!

Blackwall is also good looking to me, but id like to see more of his personality before I decide if I'd romance him. I felt his interview was the most lacking IMO, but I still look forward to him.

Would be nice to have a male elven mage to complete the set. :D Already had a rogue (Zevran) and warrior (Fenris).

 

What I hope: Solas. Probably with Vivienne to even things out between the sexes.

What I expect and will be bummed about (although happy enough for the fans): Vivienne/Varric.

What I least expect: Two males/any combination with Blackwall.

I'm gonna change my bet from Blackwall to Solas as the remaining male LI who so happens to be a race-gated bisexual, with Vivienne being the obvious female bisexual LI who's also race-gated (humans only).

 

But in order of personal preference

1) Vivienne/Blackwall

2) Vivienne/Solas (prediction)

3) Vivienne/Varric

4) Solas/Blackwall

5) Varric/Blackwall

6) Varric/Solas

I feel it's going to be Varric and Vivienne, have been saying that for awhile.  All the other combinations are equal in not happening, but if I had to pick the least likely/one I really don't want to see is Blackwall/Solas.  I just don't see those two at all has possible romance candidates, I believe Blackwall is going to be close to his calling, BioWare doing another Thane type romance so soon is lame, a bad choice for them.  And Solas, he's going to be the first male Elf that I will use, I don't want him to sour that relationship with hitting on my Necromancer.

From what I've read about DG's previous statements about the matter, it looks very unlikely that a LI is going to make the first move at all.  He's aware at how badly Anders was received in that regard.  So, even if Solas is a bi LI, he won't hit on you.

I just hope we get Solas or Blackwall available to male Inquisitors, cuz I'm having trouble imagining the writers doing justice to a bi Varric. Not because I don't trust their abilities, but because I worry that Varric, even in a m/m relationship, would still be all about the ladies. And I'm not super interested in playing second fiddle to the memory of his old girlfriend?

 

But if he ends up being a bi LI, I'll still give the writers the benefit of the doubt and try it out, and cross my fingers I'm proved wrong! :)

True. However, I can easily see Dorian hitting on you.

Ehm, I thought the problem with Anders is that you can't turn him down without losing approval. Not that he makes the first move. Basically you just have to pick the flirt options if you want to gain friendship, even if you don't romance him.

 

Isabella makes the first move as well, she says "I have a room, come later", though the game doesn't follow up on this.

I could never put my finger on why I couldn't personally see Varric as an LI, but that hit the nail on the head for me.

Some people had issue with losing approval when turning Anders down, yes.  But there was a vocal ruckus from some people (straight dudes primarily) that had a severe and irate reaction to Anders hitting on them without their control.  Y'know, being forced to confront "the gay" in their games.  It's what spawned many posts and topics about how said people didn't want to see that kind of content, and some even requested/suggested choosing sexuality during chargen so as to avoid seeing non-hetero content period.

I would rather not have any of my companions hit on me. I don't like the romances, so I won't be hitting on them either. It is OK to have romances in the game for people who like that sort of thing, but we should be allowed to avoid it if we choose.

 

Perhaps there could be a checkbox in the settings to allow romances, so if it is unchecked your companions will not make romantic overtures or flirt.

I like the idea of some companions hitting on you. You have always the choice to turn them down, so I don't see a problem with it. It's not fair to forbid them to start flirting with you, just because some people can't handle it properly. They should have the same rights as the Inquisitor. And companions vary from each other. It's just natural, that some of them are shy or reserved and others make the first step.

You understand that they aren't real? They don't have any rights. My checkbox idea would keep everyone happy.

then why not hide the conversations, the combats, certain characters, homosexual companions or other things as well? Just because they're game characters doesn't mean that they aren't part of the game. people should deal with it. simple as it is.

I don't really care, and I mean that in the best possible way. We know next to nothing about any of the characters (with the exception of maybe Varric), and having a preference as to who the next romances will be seems shallow and based on nothing except physical appearance. 

 

I will wait and actually engage the possible romances and base my decision of who to romance off that. No DA romance has ever been a disappointment to me, not one, even though I had "preferences" as to who I wanted to romance before DA and DA2 even came out. That was silly and I won't make that mistake again.

I'm not sure what you mean. If you don't want them with you at all then you don't have to take them, so that option is already there. In fact in most Bioware games there are come companions I just don't like, so don't take. But it would be nice to have a little more control and turn off the annoying aspects.

 

Maybe someone will make a mod to turn off the romances.
