And to be fair if the comics characters end up as party members or major NPCs we have a lot of interaction with then I imagine they'll do a fine job transitioning. I don't like Cole personally but I think they did a fine job adapting him from book to game(forgetting how in the book he couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag). They dropped the ball with the Masked Empire characters but none of them had anywhere near as big of a role as the companions and advisors.

I frankly hoped for a romance with a male dwarf, but if it's just going to turn into a joke, I'd rather not.

Archetypes? I want this for m/m and this and this for f/f I posted this list in the gay KISA thread long time ago (based on my tastes and what I want, not what I think is going to happen) This game, I like it The guys!
Gay human by day werewolf by night KISA type warrior. Hunky, ginger with freckles, hazel eyes and stubble. He has been fighting his curse with integrity (werewolves can control their anger in DAO, so no problem there) he would be a Knight in Sour Armour rather than Shining. With option to cure him or not. Lawful good. Bisexual male desire demon in physical form, mage. Hornes and a little of muscle included in this pack ) with african traits. Lustful and shady character. Chaotic neutral. Bisexual Avvar human warrior. Tallest guy you ever met, scars everywhere and beard. Teddy bear material. Chaotic good. Straight rogue dalish elf bard. Slim but in good shape, based on mixed race. Very stubborn and the guy can sing. Neutral Good. The girls! Gay human KISA warrior. Brienne of Tarth-like character, she's a kind and mature woman with a mission. Lawful good. Bisexual dwarf rogue: The one and only Lace Harding. This needs to happen!! Lawful good. Bisexual qunari mage: Ice queen Tal-Vashoth saarebas with trust issues. Tall, hornes, freaking beautiful qunari. Lawful Neutral. Straight city elf mage: Quirky, funny and crazy. Neutral Good. I would love an asian-like character as LI, but I don't even know if they exist in Thedas PS. Just give me my gay werewolf KISA and I'm happy but knowing BW probably I will get another dubious bi men who can betray you and prefers women and another gay character with real gay angst :poop:

I frankly hoped for a romance with a male dwarf, but if it's just going to turn into a joke, I'd rather not. Someone like Renn from Descent would be great. I would love dwarven Blackwall minus the stupid drama. And with a better actual romance and overall story. But just his personality type and look. (I would like a human Blackwall, but alas.) Obviously I'd like this character to bi, but I can play a straight male/female romance if I can play as a dwarf or qunari, if I'm not made to act/look/speak too feminine, and if the romance is just right!

I need to read the thread but that would be .... seriously Bioware needs to write their gay male characters better, the reason why their lesbian characters dont have these kind of real life issues in their romances it's beyond me, dead husband trope, conversion therapy and you need to breed to be a real man icky gay. That qunari would be like a rebellious and sad Gil lol XD I havent been in this fandom long enough to be burnt out, but I understand some of my comrades when they are saying that DA4 will be the last chance they give to Bioware. And seriously I need my butch lesbian warrior Biowur cant wait to see how Spiders handle romances in Greedfall, I hope they are equally good in quality and quantity.

How do you like my prediction of a gay Tal'vashoth who escaped the Qun because they were going to make him breed with an icky female and he just wants to LIVE HIS LIFE And you know there'll be a bad ass Brienne of Tarth warrior. She will be straight of course. I need to read the thread but that would be .... seriously Bioware needs to write their gay male characters better, the reason why their lesbian characters dont have these kind of real life issues in their romances it's beyond me, dead husband trope, conversion therapy and you need to breed to be a real man icky gay. That qunari would be like a rebellious and sad Gil lol XD Because their lesbian characters are written to appeal to straight guys, not gay women... I mean, that's generalizing, but if the shoe fits... I think Sera was a step in the right direction (I said A STEP, calm down people); she wasn't traditionally "sexy" (though I think she's freaking adorable/sexy personally) and I don't feel designers had the straight male in mind too much when making her. She did do the annoying gay BioWare LI thing which is to casually state her preferences in the most obvious and not so casual way so that delicate straight players wouldn't be wrongly led astray. Traynor also does this in ME3 with her "Ooo I love EDI's sexy voice!" Though on the other hand you could excuse that as a heads up for female players to let them know she will be into them? I dunno. I just wish gay and bi characters could be, you know, characters, the same way the straight characters are.

The Horned Knight. Ticks the "dangerous mysterious man" box, and also owns a forest. I imagine he'd be like the advisor romances in DA:I, since he probably wants to stay in his forest most of the time. I would take this. I would so take this. I don't know how it would actually work since we know practically nothing about the Horned Knight (isn't he like a Fade spirit/creature?), but I'm a sucker for magical+mysterious+"you're the first mortal I've felt like this for" types. Would totally go for this. I don't think it's very likely, but it would be cool. I would also LOVE an escaped Tal-Vashoth Saarabas. Extra points if he has scars on his lips from where his mouth was sewn shut. Extra-extra points if he wants to destroy the Qun and asks me to tag along (I would set that whole damn city ablaze if that meant killing the Qun, I think it's evil and inhumane). I think it IS likely we'll have a Tal-Vashoth character, not sure if he/she will be a mage. I also really, really, REALLY want a male dwarf romance. I don't think it's asking for too much after *shouting to the sky at BioWare* TWO GAMES OF CRUELLY TEASING US WITH VARRIC to get this. There's a dwarf embassy in Minrathous, so it's not actually all that difficult to add a dwarf in there. I don't really care about getting another elf to romance, we've had three games with several elf options- we can give them a break for one game. I mean, if we get one, that's fine, but I am getting a little bored with it. We could do with some diversity. I'm straight, so what I'm really interested in are male romances- female romance options just don't really tempt me game-wise, though I love having strong, fun, female characters to be besties with.

I really want to see: male and female dwarf romances, a female Tal-Vashoth mage, and BISEXUAL CALPERNIA~ As far as actual predictions go... there will be at least one of the above. If there's a qunari mage, she gon be butch. Vaea will be the first female elf romanceable by male elves, and probably hetero. If Calpernia shows up, and if she is a companion and not an antagonist or a brief cameo, she'll either be in love with Marius or otherwise heartbreakingly heterosexual. :sob: I hope there's a gay or bisexual dwarf dude, a hairy bear of a man with a smooshy heart. Mae will be an NPC or companion romance, either straight or bisexual. She's a widow and it's all very sad but she's ready to love again. I'd say straight women will get Marius but I don't want to inflict that on them, I'm on your side straight ladies. Gay guys will get a Boy Scout KISA type who's awkward at love.

- Harding, almost definitely.
- A female qunari, preferably an escaped saarebas.
- For Bioware to level up their archetype reliance and realize that sometimes you can ~gasp!~ subvert expectations and that furbishing unexpected backstory and personality might actually make for a better character while still maintaining a recognizable archetype
- Calpernia

Would totally go for this. I don't think it's very likely, but it would be cool. I’d picture it as less of a spelled-out LI, and more implied. To me, there’s a very strong sex/marriage subtext in faerie deals, even though no literal physical relationship exists. When someone visits a faerie court, they’ve always heard the warnings earlier in the story. So they’re explicitly saying “I’ve heard the tales. I know if I eat this food or accept these gifts, I could be bound to this faerie king/queen for all time. I could be marked with some horrible curse, which will ruin my life when I least expect it. I may never be able to return to human society. And I’m going to eat this food and accept these gifts anyway.” If someone is making that decision, it says something powerful about how seductive the... food is.

Isn't Tessa with Charter, though? Unless they broke up or the devs decide to go the poly route. I think the other two are very likely.

Well, the devs did say that if they ever did introduce a poly romance it would be the protagonist joining a preexisting couple since the other ways are a programming nightmare, so it is possible.

Well, the devs did say that if they ever did introduce a poly romance it would be the protagonist joining a preexisting couple since the other ways are a programming nightmare, so it is possible. If DA4 has a poly couple as potential Love interests, my bet is that they would probably be M/F. Yeah it "forces" anyone who wants them to be bi, but look at the alternatives:
M/M has more options for gay men (especially if one of them is a Gay Knight In Shining Armor), but it also leans into, intentionally or not, the promiscuous gay man stereotype. Also, it provides fodder for Yaoi fans who fetishize gay relationships.
F/F also has more options for lesbians (especially for the butch variety), but also the promiscuous gay woman. Worse, it plays into the "dudebro stud fixes lesbians in a threesome" fantasy.
With that said, I believe any poly romanceable couples being M/F would be the best compromise.

BioWare will decide to subvert the no gay KISA and finally give a more butch less femme f/f!
For m/m meet Bartholemieu Carthus, a dashing knight who is goody goody but also a dork! You’ll definitely feel the feels as he regaills you about a lost love! Yes, for it turns out Barth was once married and had a kid, but a no good nasty magister sacrificed his family in tragic blood magic. Tradgedy gripped poor Barth’s golden heart and after swearing to never love again he starts feeling the feels for you! Edgy, we know! You’ll definitely fall head over heels for Barth as he constantly compares you to his dead wife and later help him find his kid who of course is still alive! And you’ll definitely not suspect this was a m/f romance that got reworked at the last minute!
For those who want a bad ass, tough Cassandra/Aveline f/f romanc well we got a treat for you! Meet Alessandra! She,s tough, she’s fiersome, but guess what? She’s not your typical warrior! She uses a bow. And instead of conforming to stereotypes of a tough woman with short no nonsense hair she wears her hair long. In pig-tails. She also likes dresses which she wears. In fact she’s so non conforming to the stoic warrior type she intentionally acts scatter-brained to confuse people, you could say she is a master in subterfuge. So much so, you too will think she is nothing like Cassandra!

They should bring back a degolemified Shale and make her a romance. That'd check the "dwarf" box and probably the "asexual romance" box, too, assuming she retains her opinions on...biological functions, despite it all.

It amuses me how many people are expecting Calpernia.
I doubt they would add a character that is able to die in so many playthroughs.
Also why? Frankly, shes hideous.

We saw her leap into the waterfall, we never saw her die. I have no particular opinion about her attractiveness one way or another, but there seem to be plenty of people who are into her. I'd love to see her as a companion because she's an interesting character with a unique perspective on Tevinter.
