Mariska Hargitay, you mean

 

Yeah but she's just Detective Benson to me regardless of anything else she's in

I'm not saying that he looks alien.. though aliens can be quite goodlooking.. , but he wasn't seen as good-looking by many before release, but after release he suddenly has big fandom who thinks he's very handsome. So I think it's his personality and not his looks that won people over. I haven't seen Solas is bald! complain in months now.

Nobody said Solas or Voldemort look like aliens. I explicitly said that Voldemort and Solas look nothing alike. That's it.

Why does it bother anyone that in a Feedback forum people give feedback?

 

Instead of the good folks of this community telling people why their opinion is invalid, calling them trolls for wanting something that they want or being unhappy and bitter, just give your own and leave it.  The forum says "Feedback".  Being disappointed in a romance option is, in fact, feedback.

 

I do think that Solar is homely but intriguing in a Nosfertu way and that Iron Bull looks like Baphomet so I'm not big on my romance looking like the rape scene from Rosmary's Baby.  That's my opinion.  I also don't like blondes so Cullen does nothing for me.  I like Blackwall okay but I'm tired of that Anders thing so...

 

As for the women, I'm not nuts about Sera's personality and Josephine is too...too...

 

So basically I ignore the romances in this game for the most part and that's okay.  It's not a romance game, it's an adventure game.

wtf?

 

Yknow, there is more to game preference than just sexual orientation.  My preferred game genre is WRPG, and preferably party-based CRPG. I do not play FPS or 3PS games. I find there are very few games that appeal to me. Bioware games are one of a very few, Witcher is there, and to a much lesser extent Skyrim was 'ok'.

 

As it happens I'm straight. Your comment is pretty darned offensive IMO. I fully support Bioware supporting the various GLBT communities. But I utterly reject your proposition that Bioware should just tell the straight community, who demographically make up a large/majority of their paying customers, to STFU if they feel like the romance options suck. Because, if Bioware were to limit their market to only the BLGT customers, they'd sell many fewer copies and how long do you think it would be before EA took Bioware out behind the woodshed and left their corpse to rot alongside maxis, westwood, and many others? You seem to forget that WRPG/CRPG are already a somewhat niche market for large publishers like EA.

 

Every corporation must understand who its target market is.  Absolute Vodka, for example, if you listen to their image Tsar early on realized they got far more support from the GLBT community and knew to cater to them as part of their "brand".

 

Games are far more costly to make then vodka and they have to be put out every 3 years.  You simply don't have the money to put towards making everyone happy so if it were me, I'd make my bread and butter group happy, first.

 

That's just good business. 

 

It's less important to you to get Bar Rafaeli in the game than it is to have appropriate sexual representation to those who have been disenfranchised from gaming and now have a company that loves them.  In other words you may still buy the game with Cassandra, but Bioware must continue to dance with them what brung them, so to speak.

 

It's not like they have unlimited development funds...

Manly men.

'Yes, I love Roman'

LOL.

edit:

'It could be one act'
Bruno: 'No' *shakes head*



Oh man, I had never seen that before. That is hilarious.

[Uccio]

Physically, regarding the hair etc I don't differ. But I loved her personality. Rather than the cliche of a tough warrior woman who has no time for romance, she actually like smutty lit, and wanted to be swept off her feet. I thought that was actually pretty fun. Out of curiosity, what type of personalty traits/story aspects are you wanting to see?

 

 

I was asking that myself and had to pile up features what I don´t like. Since I loved both Morrigan and Leliana in DAO, and Merrill and Isabela (Isabela got the boot for being a nymphomaniac) in DA2.

So I don´t like overly religious characters, that was one major point with Cass, as it was with Leliana. Even though she was cute redhead with sexy voice her "Maker this Maker that" blew it. And Cass just couldn´t stop blabbering about it, not even in the sack.

The second point would be the bullheaded one eyed vision. Morrigan was also strong willed woman with a goal, but she had more layers on her personality, and she was smart. Cass is more like a battering ram with the one eye concentrated in only one thing, her seekers. I could only be interested in her seekers to a point.

Third thing was her alleged romantic nature. So she likes to read books, romance novels. How nice. Did it manifest in the game beyond the Varric book incident? No. Reading poetry in their date was not a indication of romantic nature, only that she likes poems. Morrigan and Merrill both shoved better romantic personality.

[Tamyn]

Do they only choose people with extremely small heads and large breasts as secret police?

 

Haha, IB is always bragging that he's screwing everyone in Skyhold, and I'm thinking, really? When there are cute humans all over the place that could pair up?

[Panda]

oh Lucy Lawless, I will   you forever.

 

Xena rules. 

 

I knew she looked familiar! Xena was my favorite tv-series as kid, together with Relic Hunter

If you have access to it, I'd highly recommend the series "Spartacus."  She's very memorable in that, and I especially loved Season 2.  The whole series is quite good.

I think that Bioware should dramatically scale down and simplify their romance content and make it have as much affect as it used to in their old games like KOTOR. 

 

This pointless pursuit to make romance more "nuanced" is futile because in Inquisition, the romances are not nuanced. Many of them are silly over the top tropes like sexually suppressed religious female or Disney princess romances.

You know, I actually have wondered what it would be like if they did a game with just one male and one female LI, who were both completely integral to the plot (a la KOTOR).  If they were both bisexual, then everyone would get one option (which is where KOTOR dropped the ball).  I'm sure people would still lose their minds because she's 'not sexy enough' or he's 'too promiscuous' or something.  But it might be interesting to see them go back to that for one game.  Maybe not in DA, but in their new IP, perhaps.

Great idea. There is no discrimination in your suggestion nor favoritism. All that matters is the persons personality.  Skyrim did this with their marriage options and Skyrim was immensely successful.

 

And let's be honest, anyone who acts "fabulous" is pretty annoying.  I don't know why these people act that way, it's just bizarre.

[9TailsFox]

Go ahead, someone tell me Seven is "mannish"

 

We will have intercourse resistance is futile.

Ok I show myself out.

Which Cassandra is nothing like

She is religious.

Religious yes, but sexually suppressed?

Yeah.........somehow, I'm not so sure how I feel about them 'agreeing' with my post (and then going in a totally different direction).

Exactly.

I was holding sandal's earrings the other day as he was gearing up after a similar statement from a different poster.  I'm totally comfortable with my role as earring and purse holder while y'all wil' out!  I've got the vaseline and razor blades!
