So, out of curiousity, is there any way at all to keep a romance with Alastair if he's chosen as king? Also, has anyone supported Anora, and if so, what happens?

I hear you. The most adorable male romanceable ever provided, and such a tragic one.

If you are a guy, however- you can avoid 90% of the bad things. And yet be King.

Which 90% are those?  Morrigan dumps your sorry butt no matter what you choose.  If you're romancing Leliana, you have to cheat on her to survive.  Same with Zevran.  And you can have a loveless marriage with Anora.  So, yeah, that's great if you're playing a jerk.   Nice guys don't get any happier endings than the nice girls do.

thanks jakia!  i've now gotten confirmation on this from two different players on two different boards.  since both of you are describing the same thing, but others still aren't seeing it, then i think that it's probably more a matter of the fact that this game likely has more branching paths than any other singler player RPG we've ever encountered.

There are indeed a huge number of variations on how the Landsmeet and the ending can play out. You are presented with some difficult (and some would say unpleasant choices), but that does not mean that happiness is impossible to find -- but it does mean there isn't likely to be much "and everything works out great for everyone!" going around. Considering the story that led up to it, offering up an easy choice and a sugary ending would have ultimately been more saccharine than satisfying.

Opinions on that may vary, of course, depending on what your personal requirements are, but I would advise anyone to make the choices that they believe their character would make and play through to the ending to see how it plays out and what effects their choices had.

I romanced Alistair with my rogue city elf, chose Anora to be Queen to avoid losing him after the Landsmeet. It made sense, but what I am annoyed with is that no matter what I do at the end when confronting the Archdemon, he won't let me killed it myself ( I chose not to go with Morrigan's plan). Did I screw up somewhere, or is there simply no way for me to sacrifice myself at the end if in romance with Alistair?

If you expect him to let his lady-love sacrifice herself, then you don't know Alistair very well.

The only way to do it is to not take him with you to fight the Archdemon.
