I'm a guy and I actually want a pretty elf girl please.
I didn't like any of the human females in the DA series thus far. Actually, I don't like any of the female love interests in DA series.

Wow, impressive necromantics here. Having said that, I recall I meant to ask alanc9 what he meant with his post at the top of this page. Are you still there?

I thought his meaning was perfectly clear (of course one never knows, maybe he meant something totally different from what I understood), but I'll let the man answer himself.

Yeah, uncanny valley. I literally haven't been able to personally experience the phenomenon. I'm just taking other people's word for it that the uncanny valley is actually a thing.

Yeah, uncanny valley. I literally haven't been able to personally experience the phenomenon. I'm just taking other people's word for it that the uncanny valley is actually a thing. An example off the top of my head would be to compare Data from Star Trek: TNG to Katy Perry's character in the music video for "365". Both are portraying androids, yet only Katy Perry's character would be said to fall into the uncanny valley.
This is because Katy Perry's android character looks too human, making her quirky behaviour and (seeming) lack of any emotions seem creepy and off-putting, as we know that she's not human at all. Whereas with Data, his pale skin and yellow eyes immediately clue us into him not being human, so despite his equally quirky behaviour and (initial) lack of any emotions, it's seems less off-putting because we don't feel we're being "tricked" in some way.

I've never heard the term "uncanny valley" before this thread, but that comparison helps explain it.

I'm a male and open to romancing any species of female. Also open to playing as a female if a lesbian/bisexual romance turns out to be my favorite like Sera's.

As a dude I'd love to have a sexy qunari lady as a party member and option. I really like some of the designs from Heroes of Dragon age, and some fan art based on the early concepts

I hope there's a full dwarf romance in da4 as opposed to just a partial one like Harding in inquisition. (extra points if a Kal Sharok dwarf)

I think it was confirmed by a dev that she was only a flirt and nothing more. Yeah. Apart from anything else, she doesn't have a Keep tile, so there's no way for future games to take the Inquisitor flirting with her into account.

Besides being cute and nice I really don't get the appeal of Lace, at least in DA:I. She's not a very complex character and there's simply not a lot about her out there.

I think that is exactly why she is so popular, people take this not very fleshed out yet flirty side character and in their heads fill her blank pages with their own wishes and desires so she inevitably becomes the individual perfect love interest. Just like with Cullen, first in DA we only got a glimpse of him yet people fantasized so hard about him that this relatively minor side character became hugely popular.

Pfft. My inquisitor, according to trespasser, is pretty much dating Harding (One of them atleast) No one in the future is going to get her, every other character can go ahead and try take her from my inquisitor!
