DA 4 Romances! New info for real this time!!! Zom-bangin'?

Reading that Alistair, Cass or Morrigan are not plot-relevant characters is why I have the half of this thread blocked. yeah like they werent mandatory that you can skip like every single lgbt character in DA. Seriously the sealioning is so hard that stinks. Meh.



Anyway. Plot relevant lgbt characters that you cant skip and mandatory, that's what I want, for once, I dont care if the character is a she or a he. Iron Bull is my favorite and he's not plot-relevant. DA does a better job than ME mind you, but this is one thing that a so-called lgbtq friendly franchise still doing, Leliana and Zev both can be said to go fuck themselves, and both can be killed, DA2 doesnt count for obvious reasons, Dorian, Sera, Bull are optional to join the Inquisition, and Josephine is not a companion sadly.

The starter and always mandatory companions? Make them bi or gay.

Indeed, it's not just how much a character affects the world and the story, but how much screentime they get. Though I guess in that sense, we could just talk about relevancy, instead of plot relevancy.

So guys, since there is still a long time between we get actual info, is there any game with romance you are waiting to play or know info?
Playing POE2 right now because I had to stop due college and waiting for all the dlcs to be released. Tekehu is everything I wanted lol buff, tol, blue, furry, non-human, kinky, handsome, good boi   also he talks about past male lovers too so Bioware should learn some from Obsidian.

recently finished DOS2 and Fane was really sweet boi (although Sebille got glitched and ruined my whole gay immersion as usual with female characters lol)

I bought Technomancer last year but I couldnt play it yet, hope I can soon. I have my eyes on Pathfinder Kingmaker but the only gay m/m option is kinda problematic, Regongar is still the hottest one tho imo lol   

Have Greedfall in my wishlist and I hope we can get news soon. And I need to revisit my canon MET, DAI and Skyrim characters again lol 

I need a Hyperbolic Time Chamber to do all this lol 

I dont want to give CDPR my money since their transphobic bullshit and hate first person games so C2077 depends on how they treat lgbtq companions, but I will probably buy it second hand if I want to play it.

well already knew that but fitting meme anyhow

We're two of a kind, friendo. 😋


I won't, 'cause then I'll be like.....

@daveliam

In a world, where the "laws" are wrong, the "lawful" can't be "good". In such a world, the "good" is who works against the law.

Oh it's my problem. I really can imagine a knight, who protect the people against the law – but s/he must break the law.

Or we speak about the "Universal" law? But if the mortal law against this "Universal" law, then the lawbreaking is a virtue. (And sometimes very bloody.)

Like with any other strange born-in-recent-year labeling.
You'd have to have a pretty clear definition of what a KISA is, because it seems that it differes a lot.
Not to mention preferences for specific archetypes as you personally pointed out.
One could argue, though, that Dorian was a... I fret to use LGTB, but... LGTB scholarly type of love interest, was he not?
Then again, when are they actually scholarly? 

I'll try and sit quietly in the background and hope for the tyupical "sexy bitch" love interest for straight male characters, that said, this love interest does not necessarily have to be straight herself, but at the very least bisexual.

Fenris is my favorite first contact 



lol

I would like something awkward or dorky, I'm very basic I know. Alistair's is very dull despite being my favorite romance, and Bull's is just smash and greet. Isabela's is quite sexy but that's me wanting a male Isabela for ages.

Someone like Milo?

I don't think that'll happen..... Maybe meeting him a slave-hunter or a slave, but he won't be a romance again.


LOL. Yeaaah his awkward giggle is great (tho that's at the second meeting, after he shoves his fist through a slaver's heart 😍).

Well that's why I don't think "good" is necessary, personally.  I think a lawful evil character that follows the same criteria that I mentioned could be argued to be a KISA type as well.  Especially for an "evil" PC playthrough.  

I think this is different than a "Robin Hood" type, that is more 'chaotic good'.  They perceive a problem with the laws and break them to do greater good.  I see a difference between those two trope types.  I'd like to see the former (personally, I'd like to see a lawful good type, but I could also go for a lawful neutral type as well).  

Exactly.  Zevran could be a minor boss fight and then killed.  Leliana doesn't even have to be met.  She's easily missed.  And then there's Sera, Dorian, and Bull.  All are optional.  And only Dorian has any plot relevance (and that's really only in the mage path, too).

I like the 'reluctant partner' approach where you are assigned to work together but it's not your choice at first.  I also like the 'purposefully recruit a team of experts thing' where you seek out people because of what they can do for you.  It's more of an ME2 thing, but I wouldn't mind seeing it in DA.
