Heheeh, yeah. The marriage is disappointed.

[dragonsteak]

In DA:O you can marry Alistair, allowing you to become the Queen of Ferelden

You can also marry Anora, allowing you to become the Prince of Ferelden

 

In DA:2 you can marry Sebastian, allowing you to become the Princess of Starkhaven

 

But what happens in DA:I?

We only can marry a dirty blondie peasant and a childish lesbian?

I am disappointed Bioware, I demand satisfaction.

Yes, I wrote the title wrong, that's what happen when you marry a peasant or a lesbian.

 

That's why we will see:

 

Dragon Age: The Family Issues

"Once again step in the land of Thedas with Varric, just with grey hair and wrinkly skin, cleaning up the mess of the late Inquisitor's royal family. Take an exciting role between Chef, Accountant, or Janitor of the Inquisition and start your revolution to make the Inquisition great again."

Meh, Cass needs something utterly grand of a wedding so I'm not really super surpised about it.

[Bayonet Hipshot]

The most disappointing part of DAI's inclusion of marriage is that Josephine, who is The Disney Princess of DAI, does not have a marriage scene. Just ridiculous.

Cassandra is just being overly entitled, which is quite frankly the typical female behavior when it comes to marriage. They will want an expensive lavish over-the-top wedding, an expensive diamond ring of some sort, a romantic engagement that fits their entitled high standards, and the groom is just a human prop / paraphernalia.

Yah, marriage is so dissappointeded.

Hi, my name is Arshit. I'm an illiterateded tryhard troll who dreams of being cornholed by mah Cully Wully peasant every night.

And yes, I'm well aware that some snot nosed moron will report me. Oh boo how, give me a warning point. Gimme Gimme.

[lynroy]

My character already has a title and a castle, dirty peasant husband should be grateful.

[AutumnWitch]

Then what's the point of this game if it isn't the romance?

Actually I am very happy with the marriage prospects in DAI.

 

To me Sera being able to get married was a two fold positive. It shows how much she grew (as a character) esp if you play a Elven Mage. And two, I think it was a gift to the LBGT community at a time in real history when things were changing. I can say I adore all three DA games but being able to marry Sera was the single most joyful moment in all the games. It meant a lot, in a lot of ways.

 

As far as Cullen I think it was wonderful to see him finally get his woman. I just yesterday replayed the Mage origin in DAO and laughed at the cute flirting he tried  with the future of HoF. It really reminded me how far he came. Just think about it, he personally knew the HoF, Hawke and Inquisitor. In the ranks of such greatness! I also think, if you don't marry Cullen, his ending is one of the sweetest and most touching in the entire DA franchise.  A true honourable, compassionate man to the end.

 

As far as the others I can see why you couldn't marry them and it makes sense. Except for maybe Josie, which I suspect she still has a part to play in future DA games, so they probably didn't want to tie her down. That being said, it was left open-ended so perhaps one day she does marry the Inquisitor.

Hmm, Cass is a romantic though... I don't think she's being overly entitled though about it, afterall - some girls want there day to be extra special and that's what Cass wants so, eh, not really a cliche in the making.

As did I... I image my Lavellan ended up marrying her after making a great deal of potions (which means going outside a lot to find the ingredients for the potions) to pay for the expense of the ring, to pay for the wedding he just used some of the Inquiston funds to make the grand wedding Cass wanted happen.

[Gervaise]

My main gripes over the marriage issue were:

 

1) Originally we were told there would be no marriage in DAI - of course technically this was true since it didn't come about until Trespasser but it was still backtracking.

 

2) Only female Inquisitors had the option of marriage with you actually seeing the ceremony.   It may have been implied with Josephine but it didn't actually happen even in the epilogue slides.   Why is it assumed that male PCs wouldn't be interested in marriage?

 

3) The awful joke that the writers pulled with Varric and Cassandra.   Was this making fun of people who want marriage in the game?   The problem for me was that it was anything but funny.   For my Dorian romance it was really disappointing to have the idea that it might be possible, have Cassandra tell me to follow my heart and then rush off to find Dorian only to discover Varric holding a farewell party for him.   For my Cassandra romance is was excruciatingly embarrassing to have her bring up the subject and when I seemed enthusiastic, have her awkwardly decline the offer (she wasn't Divine so what was the problem?).   However, the worst one was my Solas romance where I consider the marriage "joke" was downright cruel.   Vivienne and Sera were well aware that my Lavellan wasn't over him so why make Cassandra an insensitive idiot and Varric a absolute jerk for using her misery to mock Cassandra?

 

It didn't help my mood over the unnecessary "joke" when I discovered that some characters actually did get the option of marriage.    There was nothing wrong with the marriages we did get, just the way they dealt with the issue for everyone else.

2. Huh. i hadn't thought about it, but that is unfair.

 

3. WOW, that can be terrible narratives. My experience my first game, I'd romanced Cullen and had no idea Marriages could be a thing in the game. I thought it was a funny discussion, said, hey, maybe I would marry, why not? Literally right after talking to her, i went over to Cullen and BAM he proposed and I was Like OMG NO WAY AWESOME SWEET AMAZING.  But to have been IN a relationship with Cass and she declining? WTF MATE. That's messed up reply. I am sad Dorian didn't get a marriage discussion, because I feel like he'd have absolutely been up for it. And whoa, how does that dialogue even work considering the Quiz hasn't seen Solas in two years? How can that be funny at all? I agree, cruel!

People is calling you troll because you keeped maded stupided threadsed.

You also have to take into consideration that Cass is technically nobility and weddings are a big deal in that crowd and the planning can be years in the making for a proper wedding.

Well, your typing skills are not as great as most posters, but that could be due to your not speaking English as a first language.

 

Also, you're posting threads of discussion from a very aggressive "I'm right" stance. Inviting argument. Which is a bit trollish but if sincere and doesn't get nasty, can lead to good discussion.

 

Whether you're a troll or not, I'm enjoying the discussion and so that's all that matters to me. Not like that phantom/sheep guy constantly derailing the Empress Celene Thread. I don't even go there to read anymore.

I agree with what you're saying here. It's weird that they would set up situations that make Varric seem so uncaring about how that would effect the Inquisitor. Even though I can see it from the perspective of him wanting to make Cassandra look stupid, It seems unlikely that he would do something that insensitive to a (possible) friend. It's especially true with Dorian and Solas, since he can clearly see that's not happening for those Inquisitors and bringing it up can only hurt them, in context. I feel like this is an instance where the writers were only looking at it from a limited perspective and didn't think out the effect based on all possible stories. 

 

My romance was with Dorian and it was disappointing to have that conversation with Cassandra and then to immediately find out that, not only can you not even mention it after telling Cassandra you have thought about it, but you find out literally everyone knows he's leaving indefinitely except you. I understand that they want to use his character for future story purposes and that's fine, but the wind up could have been handled better.

Sera is kind of a discredit to the lgbtq community tbh. First lesbian choice - annoying and ignorant as hell.

I'm going to be virtually murdered now, aren't I.

Yes.

I don't give two squirts about people not liking her any more. I find that arguing about it is like the special Olympics.

One thing that really ticks me off though is this "correct representation of X sexuality/group". In BioWare's case they should be able to write whatever character they damn well please, without people bitching "Omgz it's a false representationz" should Sera have been an elven goddess/angel hybrid with a halo on her head and an arse that smells like roses? No.

Are you saying there can't be any lesbians who are annoying and ignorant as hell?  

 

Also great avatar.

I played Trespasser without spoilers beforehand. I had romanced Dorian and he stayed with me those two years. Then I got a scene with Cassandra talking about marriage and follow my heart and I was buoyed up with talking  with Dorian next. I could propose! Or he could propose! So, with a spring in my step and a song in my heart off I went to find Dorian. Had a lovely welcome kiss and then you got to the goodbye party. Can you say crushed? I felt like I'd been hit in the stomach. It probably wouldn't have been so disappointing if the option about marraige hadn't come up. I really thought it was an option. Then I found out that for some characters it <I>was</I> and option so I was even more disappointed. I wanted my Quizzy and Dorian to get their happily ever after. If ever two characters deserved it, it was those two.

 

Good job for fanfic, eh?
