i havent been paying much attention to DA awakening but now that its getting closer to the relase date if done some research and learnt there wont be any romance what the hell!? right now dragon age is better than mass effect 2 simply because mass effect 2 isnt an RPG it turned out mor elike a space set shooter game with a pathetic amount of character interactions,  and if they have messed around too much wit hthe rpg aspects in awakening then like mass effect 2 it will be a big dissapointment to many fans and just be yet another failed rpg sequel

The romance options made up what... 5% of the original game?



Grow a pair and deal with it.

its not the romance im solely concerned about- its the fact that mass effect 2 was complete **** when compared to the first because bioware cut out basically all of the rpg elements



and now even before the game is released we are learning theyve been doing the same to dragon age which means the chances are good that theyve also ****ed up this game

There's plenty of romance. It just won't involve your character. Also expansion, not sequel.

There aren't romances because they didn't have time to make them. Not because they're streamlining the game.



ME2 was streamlined, and it still had romances. And ME2 ****? Are you high? Or do you not think somethings an rpg unless you have an inventory full of obsolete crap?

ME2 is an awesome game, its just designed to appeal to the masses. If it was an RPG it would be a completely different game, right now tho it really is just a 3rd person shooter, calling it an RPG (in the traditional sense) is a joke.

So theirs no romance in DAA, its not too bad, id imagine you'd still get to know the characters in great detail, only this time around you wont be able to "knock boots wid em"

no im not high, mass effect 2 was rubbish. people that prefer it to ME1 arent RPG fans- simple as that.
and seeing as i am an RPG fan there pretty much the only games i like im hoping that dragon age awakening doesnt dissapoint

Their are things I miss in ME1, such as the RPG elements, that, yano, make it an RPG and not a 3rd person shooter, the weapon and armour mods, and the fact that it felt so much bigger.

But I still prefer ME2, because its combat is just so much nicer to play. Their were more weapons. I tried playing ME1 again after completing ME2, but it was just so "clunky".

Agreed on ME opinion. 

There will most likely be romance, the npc's will be hitting on other npcs. Just none for the wardens.

Aside from the crappy inventory system, what RPG parts did ME2 get rid of? You still levelled up and chose skills (and you couldn't max them all out), you still upgraded your equipment, and you still got to choose dialogue options.

So is a game not an RPG unless you have piles of obsolete junk in your inventory that you never use?

And I'm not a true RPG fan? Really? Funny considering ME1 was subpar in the 'traditional' RPG department anyway. And maybe I like ME2 for the different story and characters, as opposed to the gameplay?

And considering you're a 'true' RPG fan, what 'RPGs' have you played then? Oblivion? Fallout 3?

ok lets see what ME2 missed



there were far less skills

less weapons

less armour

less character interaction/dialogue

renegade/paragon had bigger impact on ME1

much more customisation



and thats just off the top of my head- i dont need to defend muyself to you the point of the fact is ME1 was way more of an RPG than ME2- and all im hoping is that bioware sticks to its origins and keeps awakening as a good RPG and not sacrifice a lot of good interest for combat

I'll never understand this fascination with romances in a VIDEO GAME. Dude get a real relationship and you won't care about it so much in DA.

Somebody call the WAaaaaaaaAAAaaaaambulance... i mean really.. since when can a RPG not be succesfull without bloody romances. Ferelden is at war with a new unknown enemie, its hardly the time to get down and rub nugs with the new Grey Warden recruits don't ya think?

I think he's just referring to the fact that the "romance-aspect" separates DA from other RPG's, so it's a shame that it isn't a feature in the expansion.. And considering ALOT of fans like that feature, it's all the more irritating. Ofcourse it's not necessary, but I did like it and find it a disappointment that it isn't a feature in the expansion.

And don't go "omg get a relationship" on me, because I've been in one for the last 4 years, thank you.

Imho the romance feature was unique for BioWare and especially DA. This way you could really get attached to the characters in-game. For alot of people who liked it in DAO, the expansion will be somewhat disapointing.

Spelling, grammar, punctuation, capitalization; work on that and your posts might carry more weight.

Also, Awakenings is going to be just fine; stop complaining about how the sprinkles on your cupcake aren't the right color.

I don't care for Romances or not as long as the relationships can be fully fleshed out. Some of the best character moments from DA:O were not romantic.

I see what you mean Rokushi, i just have a hard time beliving people that all out say they wont buy the game cos they cant get some ingame booty.



True, you can get attached to people you are in a relationship with, but so can you with people who are just friends.

It's been stated Awakenings will be "mission-focused". Take that as you will.

True. I'm disappointed about it, but nevertheless am I going to buy DA:A ;) The romance/relationship-aspect just made me get much more attached to and connected with the characters. It was a much more emotional rollercoaster all the way, compared to others RPG's. I'm just afraid that this won't be the case in DA:A, which will make the experience less intense. But we'll see that in 9 days ofc:lol:
