Curious, are there any straight guys here who'd want to pursue a dwarf or qunari? I know there are some on the forums, just don't know if they're lurking in this thread. Many of those already abandoned ship and are sitting on the sidelines waiting for the franchise to die.

You and me both. Though if they are talking about banging male demons then I say let us straight guys get to bang hot demon ladies then! 😈🔥😈 The desire demons were removed from game though. Too risky for Bioware when going for that metacritic score which is totally useless anyhow. People look at user score, bioware Stupid BioWare... 😒

I don't understand the turn of this conversation. \ I said a gay werewolf romance could be interpreted as problematic and make negative implications, because I was told a nonhuman gay KISA would have negative implications, and now ppl be all passive aggressive. It's cool though, gotta reap what I sow. ngl your comment pissed me off but this is not about you I guarantee that. Apparently talking about furries and twinks is just too much for some people lol

We can see the freckles dimples in Cora's unbelievable bubble butt, but a fade to black with a desire demon is too much? Waiting for a franchise to die... How stupid and unfruitful. I still don't get it. Straight dudes who want to romance dwarves and qunari are waiting for the franchise to fail?

I did not see a desire demon in DA:I Whereas they were in both DA:O and DA2. I still don't get it. Straight dudes who want to romance dwarves and qunari are waiting for the franchise to fail? It is a whole discussion which people have already had before, I am sure. But it started in DA:I, were also in MEA, and continued with John Epler's twitter reply to a: "Do not bring your politics into the game" It may have doomed DA4 before it was even started... I certainly hope not, I want to see a conclusion to Solas' story!

But I believe a large part would, by far, prefer humans and elves. Qunari may actually be the next best thing and dwarves the last. Scout Harding seemed popular though, but that may be due to her overall character rather than her race. Who knows.

Ppl still mad about Gaider talking about how female dwarf romance would be offputting. Qunari women seem to be popular too.

Hmmm... any women that romance male characters want to chime in on this? Anything you're hoping for in the next game? I mean, I am here but we all know what I want. (DWAAAAAAAARF!!!) And since I happily play characters of both genders and all orientations, I'm not really in a position to speak for women who only want to romance male characters while playing as a female character.
I think straight female characters have had the best variety of love interests in the series to date - it seems to me that there's really not much missing there. (Apart from DWAAAAAAAAAAAAARF!!! obviously.) If we were still in the South I'd say there was maybe a place for a male Circle mage - someone more like Finn, in contrast to apostate Anders and actual elven god Solas. But going to Tevinter we might just end up with 'Dorian but straight' and I feel like there are more interesting takes on that they could do.
I do think that if we're getting fewer promiscuous gay and bi characters they should provide more slutty straight people to compensate, because I would hate to see the promiscuous love interests left out altogether! Variety is the spice of life - people who want to romance someone chaste should have that and there should also be a contrasting option available. So sign me up for a slutty straight man in DA4, I guess.

I think you're probably right, but judging from the amount of guys who liked Harding, Dagna, Sigrun, etc. I'm guessing there's at least an audience out there... just dunno how big it is.

I do think there's a fair number who'd be interested in a dwarf or qunari, but I imagine at least one of the LIs for every orientation will be a human or elf. At least that's been the pattern.

I think fearing 'straight men' to be vocally disappointed is not one thing to be feared. As long as the woman made for a 'straight male' character does not look like she has been, and I quote: "shaped by the cold hands of a social justice warrior" the complaints will be miniscule. I can't remember how much backlash DA2 got for characters such as Merill and Isabella though.

There are gay guys and lesbians and straight women who prefer smooching humans and elves, too. DA2 got tons of backlash for Merrill and Isabela, both for their looks and personalities. It's kind of a staple in this fandom.

Wait. We can see the freckles dimples in Cora's unbelievable bubble butt, but a fade to black with a desire demon is too much? I did not see a desire demon in DA:I Whereas they were in both DA:O and DA2. Imshael is a desire demon, though he hates that label. I imagine most other desire demons were smart enough to stay faaaaar away from the rifts. They’re relatively high on the power scale, they can probably manage it. In a time of such upheaval, rage, terror, and fear demons had a field day, compassion spirits got too close and flipped over to despair, pride demons wanted to say hi to Solas, and various minor shades were too weak to stay away from the rifts. But the desire demons? They had little to gain and a lot to lose from risking the rifts to target scared, stressed-out people. So they skedaddled. I would bet cold hard cash that Tevinter will have plenty of desire demons. That’s got to be their best hunting ground.
