Your'e probably right, but I didn't buy this game for its romance options and no one should.
Anyone that complains to much about the "lousy" romance options can Google adult anime (which I just did before this post) and they will find tons of adult stuff to buy, that I'm sure will satisfy the most demanding individual.
This game is all about the Lore of Dragon Age as it must be. The "romance" part are just crumbs anyway...with dialogue and scenes diluted so much that hardly meet expectations... hence the complaints.
I'd rather have the Bio team concentrate on the Lore and story elements than giving us a large canvas with faded colours.
Erm. I buy Dragon Age mainly for the storytelling and romances are a huge part of it for me. It's what I like.
"Adult anime" usually means anime porn and I hope you realize that is NOT the same as romance. I should hope you don't, anyway. The vast majority of that genre is geared toward male wish fulfillment. Certainly not something that I, a female romance fan who thinks Pride and Prejudice is the best romance ever, would really find romantic fulfillment in.
That said, I do think lore and storytelling are more important than romances in Dragon Age games and should be the focus. We are in agreement there.
