We talked about wanting this in DAI. I remember saying I used the Heart option to comfort Cullen even though I was romancing Solas and wished we would have the Heart used for compassionate feelings and not just romance. With all these extra hearts I wonder will folk still complain about being ninja-manced. Or is that even possible anymore?

What all these extra hearts I wonder will folk still complain about being ninja-manced. Or is that even possible anymore? I think it'll just be another way to react to the people you talk to, and perhaps lead to more if a flirt is initiated. Being a compassionate woman irl, I always hoped to be able to comfort good friends like that in the games, but sadly it was more or less just leading them on if used too often. I'm hoping that's part of what the heart option means.

Flynn said "The heart is part of many emotions...". That is not really helping to distinguish flirting from comforting.

(Don't think anyone's posted this) Fryda re-tweeted this: She also re-tweeted some Jaal fan art - including yours, Pon.ee ! Fryda's good fun, have high hopes for Sara. Continuing with the cat theme, ahem...

Well if someone is confiding in you or telling you a sob story, I would hope the heart doesn't mean you're trying to bang them in a moment of weakness aka "I want you Thane" In DAI the heart option was clearly flirt-related. To be "flirty without commitment", as BioFan put it, is fine, as long as you don't confuse the heart with whatever the flirt symbol might be. OT: I should really stop to talk about the same topic in two different threads, it adds whole new layers of confusion.

I still used it to comfort Cullen and role-played I was doing it as a friend, but what I truly meant by the action the symbol did not, therefore i am hoping this new heart means we can be kind without flirty when someone is in need of comfort.

I guess, since I'm a cat-lover, I think of cats as small, cute, fuzzy, adorable babies The angara seem very strong and beautiful, very alien. Not cute at all.

And I can't NOT see the cat thing. The nose shape and the eyes are very feline. More lion than house cat, if that helps with the imagery.

Though I haven't seen a pic of him since the trailer. I need to google. ((googles)) Yeah I guess with the black slit it is cat like, like if you shine a light directly into their poor little eyes lol

Cats can be strong and beautiful too. (I have 2 tiger posters hanging in my office) My cute & fuzzy felines are sleeping off their turkey snack on my lap and feet, respectively. Total difference.

Yeah I don't see my cat there AT ALL But a lion is different... as for the nose, he doesn't appear to have one, at least not one that sticks out prominently the way a cat's would. Though of course I know the comparison isn't meant to be totally like for like. I can see it a bit better now, though I still don't like the thought of associating my (hopefully) future love interest with my cat LOL

I think the confusion stems from the term "cat", which was meant as anything feline, including lions, tiger etc. BTW "the cute and fuzzy babies" are still predators, they only pretent to be domesticated...

Some clarification on flirt options from Twitter thread...
Jen G @caravaggio4lyfe TY for answering. So in some situations we'll have 5 options or is it more like the flirt replaces 1?
Ian S. Frazier @tibermoon It's possible to have Flirt + Investigates or Flirt + various Tone options, yup.

I do not see a cat tbh. I see a creature with the feline features of a lion and similar powerful haunches with skin of the aquatic variety.

[ APPEARS] ARE WE TALKING ABOUT HOW ANGARAN LOOK LIKE SQUIDS Sorry, it's just, I made this awful MSPaint thing a few days ago when the topic first came up, but then it ended and I didn't wanna post it. But now you guys are talking about it again and I can use it! It's not great, obviously, but it's where I see squid and not cat. It's like if the squid grew a body out from their mouth area, and their tentacles became more like hair. I just... I don't see feline. Except the slitted eyes, I guess? But crocodiles and vipers have slitted eyes, too. Besides, if Bioware does eventually create cat-aliens, I hope they wait until they can do fur properly and make 'em really fluffy. With tails.

I get more a feline feel, but it's not like I see a cat when I look at the Angara. As @ladyconsular has said before, they seem to be a mix. Which is fun.

On the squid thing for me it's those tentacles and his skin, it looks like it would feel like a squid's. More like a cat though imo I wonder if the things on his head really are some sort of tentacles or one solid part with some furrows on it. Reminds me of a conversation between Joker(?) and Liara if she could move the things on her head. She was not amused. And I have definitely never petted a squid, no idea what their skin might feel like.

They're just inside his armor in the screenshot we see of him. Somehow I doubt he can move them, though. That would be...strange to witness. If you're talking the top and backs of their heads, I have no clue. It looks solid to me, and hard compared to their faces.
