Eh, I got a -20 with Alistair, too, and that was after telling him already once that I wasn't interested, when he gave me the rose. The game still assumed I was pursuing him and when I had to "break it off" a second time, he gave me the -20. Very annoying.

Happened to me on my DEF Rogue as well. Told him off once, and all of a sudden he starts calling me beautiful again. At least it was only a -2 this time around :D

Well, I usually play as a female Warden, because I got no interest in romancing Morrigan ( which bears out pretty well after having finished the game one time ^^ ) and you can get Leliana anyway.

Since I also ascribe to the "directing a movie" way of playing these games, I don't see a problem with RP'ing a woman here. I wouldn't want to RP a woman in a real tabletop roleplaying game, though. Here, your answers are pre-chosen for you. There, I wouldn't know how to best react in many occasions. :P

Ya know, I tried a new HNF last night, and that was the first HN I've played in a while where I didn't go through with the Iona/Dairren fling.  It felt kinda... ****ty (edit: "s l u t" is apparently filtered here).  I tried it but the dialogue with Fergus got me scolded by Oriana about shaming the house.  I always do it on my males though and Fergus doesn't care!

And now that I think about it... playing a female I probably can't get the kiss from Bella either can I?  Male PCs get all the fun!

No no kiss from Bella but you can flirt with Teagan so it depends on your perspective of fun.  I found Teagan flirtation MUCH more fun than the kiss from Bella but her kiss is the hottest one in the game. 

and Good evening Axe, I hope you had a good day?

Hmm... well I guess that's not so bad.  Seeing the cutscene from castle Redcliffe, he can breakdance pretty well (really where did he learn that???).

I did actually, thanks!  I went 5 for 5 on my picks for UFC111 so I'm feeling pretty awesome atm. B)

Do male characters get to offer to sleep with Dwyn in order to have him help defend Redcliffe? If not, then that's another perk in female PC.

DWYN?!?!  Is that really a "perk?"

I didn't know you COULD sleep with Dwyn. I thought even a dwarf lady gets turned down (though he expresses regret about it?)

He does turn you down (more regretfully as a dwarf) but propositioning him is always amusing. As for why you'd want to? Possibly because you're still heartbroken that Gorim left Orzammar some time after you did but still had time to get married and get his wife pregnant by the time it took you to get from Lothering to Denerim and so you decided to sleep your way across Ferelden to make yourself feel better? Now THAT was a fun playthrough...Although Cammen was scared of me...

As far as the male/female romance balance in the game, remember the guys can seduce Gheyna, whereas the female wardens have the rare privilege of seducing Cammen.



That's one of two quests I just refuse to do anymore. It's just wrong and there is no possibility of a happy ending.

Speaking of seducing, you can seduce the dwarf that's got Sten's sword lol. Not sure what his words are or if he even takes up the offer but if you're playing a female you get that other option. I forget the exact words but it is there.

That would be Dwyn. He never accepts the offer. I think he prefers to polish the ol' weapon.

^^OMG you're right! I never knew that. According to the Wiki, "If the male Warden chooses to seduce Gheyna when Wynne is in the party her opinion of the Warden will, surprisingly, increase by seven." Hahaha!

There's still so much stuff in this game I still haven't done or seen. It's kind of mind blowing actually...

Lol there's a bunch of perverts in the game. Funnier then heck thats for sure. Finally decided to take a different line talking to Daveth and I mentioned I'll watch your back if you watch mine. His response was great and then you have the option of saying something about not getting to distracted, which I didn't choose but that whole you watch my back line was funny.

What, the Cammen/Gheyna quest? How is their getting married not a happy ending? Or is this if you sleep with one of them? I haven't hooked up with Gheyna but even though Cammen was scared of me I still convinced Gheyna to marry him and he wisely never brought it up.

I've heard people say it seems like Wynne hates elves, but I think it might just be male elves. She made Aneirin run away, tried to convince him to leave his peaceful home to go back to people who tried to kill him at fourteen, and couldn't even be bothered to take his token when she left at the end of Origins. Zevran, of course, she keeps trying to 'save' and Cammen most likely doesn't get the girl if you sleep with Gheyna. Does she freak out and call you a bad person afterwards, too, or is Cammen the only prude?

When asking him to fight in the militia, you get a Persuade option that runs something like, "What about a more... personal reward?"  He hems and haws and turns you down, though he might say something nice about you, especially if you're a dwarven lass.

Heh, I did say "offer." Didn't mean to imply that it worked. I just like the fact that we can even try to bribe Dwyn this way because it's absurd enough to be funny. My dwarf commoner is romanceless so she had no qualms about making this suggestion to Dwyn and even less so for visiting the Pearl (had Oghren walk in by accident, too). Reason my dwarf commoner is not attached to anyone is because they'll add a dwarf romance at some point and I don't want to break up with anyone just to move on to the new guy/gal.

When Bioware announced six new romance options for Mass Effect 2, people immediately started making characters in ME1 that had no romances so they wouldn't be in the position of having to break up with their original love interests. There really isn't a way to break up with the ME1 love interest in ME2 and Bioware said there'd be consequences in ME3 if your character "cheated." Yeah, keeping my character clean "just in case." Could be moot if we have to start again on fresh characters in DA2, but that's OK. It was nice to not have Wynne ask me about relationships at least once! =p

A dwarf romance?  When did they announce that?

Technically there wasn't a dwarf romance announcement. I'm just going by a much older post that DG made in all sincerity and keeping my fingers crossed. ;)

http://forums.biowar...orum=135&sp=105

And I'm not sure why everyone is so concerned about dwarf romances. If
you're playing a dwarf and you think it's weird, then my suggestion
would be not to romance anyone. One day, however, we WILL do a
dwarf-specific romance. I swear it.

Heh. My main playthrough is a city elf female. I have just gone terminator on an entire mansion full of guards, then killed the highly trained son of an Arl. I am a freaking killing machine, an instrument of vengeance who scythes down all who stand against me.

So, no, I'm not inclined to be scared of Sten. He's big, but so what? Virtually all the people I've killed are bigger than me. And as for Alistair, if he acted leaderlike, since he's senior, I'd let him lead, but he clearly doesn't want the job, and yes, so I'll handle it, just like I handled the Arl's son.

(As an RP note, I just assume my CEF was well trained and has spent years fanatically training after her mother died. I also assume that she has been involved in plenty of street fights, and as anyone who has played the game knows, virtually the most dangerous opponents in the entire damn game are Denerim street thugs. After growing up fighting them, Darkspawn other than Ogres and Emissaries are laughable.  "Baby, I grew up on the mean streets of Denerim.  I'm supposed to be scared of you!?")

iirc, she pretty much does. Made me feel bad so I reloaded. Cammen's reaction to it was pretty hilarious though.

Haha!  You know, you may be on to something there.  Between Gaxkang, city guards and the thugs those Denerim streets are worse than the Deep Roads. :D

That's for sure.  Fortuneately we have good ole Sgt Kylon to help with that mess.  (He is the only city guard to walk away from the merc ambush in my games)  For me that's one of the toughest fights in the game.

BTW The same VA who does Sten does Sgt Kylon Image IPB FUN times!
