Lucanis Dellamorte - Official Companion Thread [Spoilers]

From what I've gathered he's a family guy?
But look where he comes from.
Granny abused him and made him the Golden Child.
His BFF is Cousin Judas.
They're all in the wonderful murder business.
I wouldn't feel secure if I was him.
It's like they say in Fallout NV, the game was rigged from the start.
I pity Antivan Polly Pocket if he trusts and loves those people.

I guess that is a retcon from a certain point of view sort of things...

But it is basically what happened in Inquisition so I'm not really seeing it.

That's what I said when it was brought up the first time but gervaise21 has argued that the Iron Bull romance card constitutes a retcon and a cannonization of the choice whether to save the Chargers or not, meaning that the Chargers now always survive.  I don't agree but there we are. 

I really don't see how this conclusion can be reached, especially given that no one yet has seen the game and didn't see the extent of past companions' involvement. But the only way Iron Bull can *actually* be romanced, for real - and it's been confirmed years ago by Bull's writer - is when we save Chargers and Bull becomes Tal-Vashoth. We don't know what happens to him if he ain't romanced. For all we know he's never mentioned, mentioned only vaguely, or we get to specify his fate through some means we get while actually playing the game, like specific dialogues or interactions.

I really don't see where complaints are coming from - yes, you don't get to choose to specify that Inky feels terrible after what happened with Bull... but you don't get to choose this about Solas either. And the decision whether to kill him or not is not dependent on any previous relationship status.

Basically, we get to choose the exact same level of detail about romance with Solas as we do with Iron Bull, which is - we don't get to specify anything about it; just that feelings have prevailed up to events of Veilguard (or not).

And since we didn't yet see the game we have no idea whatsoever if/how past romantic life of Inky is going to be addressed. 

As for Solavellan, and whether they'll get any additional content in DAVe... quite possibly. This is a flavor they can add on top of a seemingly important aspect of DAVe, which is relationship between Inky and Solas, be it positive or negative.

But that's nothing new - you get to see past romance affect events in Inquisition only if you romance Morrigan and have a kid with her, so a *very* specific worldstate. And I don't recall people throwing a big fit over getting something more out of it in later chapter, when they choose to romance a character that is more relevant to the overarching plot than others.
