Iron bull likes to fuck bitches and suck a dick once in a while= entire backstory ...

You're not reading the thread, I know a lot more than their sex orientation just by reading here.

Christ, those are some ugly characters. If they're going to make a thinly-veiled dating sim, they could at least give us some adequate waifus.

Bioware's fall has taken an awfully long time (I thought EA would have taken them out the back and shot them like they did with just about all the other studios they've bought up long ago - or at very least just after the release of DA2). I think it can be traced back to the decision to introduce romance options in BG2 and courting the kind of audience that wants that kind of stuff. Almost inevitably this is not the core CRPG audience.

I've always said if I wanted to romance annoying people I could do it in real life. That's not my motivation for playing CRPGs.

 

[Night Goat]

It's pretty clear at this point that they don't really care about the core rpg audience, and are focusing their efforts on pleasing SJW romancefags. The question is whether it will work. EA has a lot of dewritos to give out, so the reviews will be stellar, but EA's reputation has been sinking for years and the gaming "journalism" sites have been handling "gamergate" in the worst way they possibly could. I don't think romancefags alone are enough to make the game a success, so if they fail to get the core gamers on board Bioware could be in trouble.

I just wish I had not heard of the game and all of the spoilers for every goddamn character so I could just pick it up and think it's kinda ok except for all the faggots trying to suck my cock ingame.
It's like a negative marketing what they are doing.

 

[Night Goat]

Why would you expect a game from EA and modern Bioware to be ok?

now I wouldnt, because of you fuckers.
ignorance is bliss

hm or actually I dont know, I never cared for DA2 so maybe Id be able to figure it on my own.
at least Id play the game and enjoy some of it instead of the disgust Im feeling now

 

[Athelas]

Two “additional” romance options were added to the game as a result of the extra development time DA:I received.

Good to know they got their priorities in order. Most every game developer would kill for that extra development time.

Not that hasubandos are any better. I find it pretty funny that they declined even in comparison to DAO, which wasn't a pinnacle of character design by any means, but at least girls there were better looking than Cassandra, dyke elven chick and what's-her-name black chick.

 

[FuriousGamer87]

Ah, the only thing better than this thread is the BSN & SA thread after the game is released where they will bitched about how their waifu and husbando don't love their in-game avatar enough and therefore, are poorly written.
I await ridiculous bullshits like those as a source for my amusement .
And also that's pretty much more entertaining that struggling through this poorly designed replica of an eroge.
Even better is the part, where unlike the game, entertainment is free and without any dlcs.

Oh look at that, they included a younger Orloc as a party member. Nice to see some throwbacks to the classics!

 

[Tom Selleck]

wait so my LARP Dragon Age character "LORD TOMAS SELECKIVOUS, REGENT-PALADIN KING of the CHIVALROUS BANE" only gets one fucking option waifu? and it's just some semi-ethnic?

(he wouldn't bone a bisex lady, that's a sin against, uh, whatever God they have in "the DAS". the chantry. the mom. who the fuck knows.)

FFS. WORST GAME OF THE YEAR 0/10 NO STARS

 

[Multiple Sarcasm]

what spoilers? that gay looking guy with faggy mustache is actually a faggot?

But can you imagine the butt outrage of Biodrones after they invested dozens of hours into the game only to find out the cardboard cutout they've been focused on wouldn't fuck their toon?
And now we won't have that. Tragic, I say.

"Speaking more generally, as I may have hinted towards… if there's a group that I'd be most willing to "short change" (or better stated, since only one group is really benefiting here, I'd be most unwilling to focus on) it'd be the straight male group because within pop culture (games, movies, etc) they are already the beneficiaries of so much content. So I do not consider it the same level of "inequality" to have them get less options than a different group, as opposed to those other groups.

While I fully expect it to be seen as empty words (since for all the talk of trying to focus more on LGBT representation, lesbians and gay men receive less than straight people), I do consider their cries for representation to have a much more solid grounding than some guys who, for maybe the first time in their gaming life, have to deal with the reality that sometimes not everything is going to fall their way.

I actually don't feel it's necessary for all our games to have precisely the sameamount of options for all because sometimes a story/narrative may make sense, and in the case of DAI the alternative would be simply not doing that content instead, which is still unfortunate to anyone that would like that content. I do, however, personally feel a bias towards giving straight male gamers the bonus at this time because of their lengthy track record of receiving the most focus and content.

So yes, I actually do feel that gay men and lesbians have a touch more reason to be upset… though if a straight man feels upset I won't begrudge them that feeling. I do hope, however, that they can step back and realize the big picture regarding their disappointment and can better empathize with people that are not like themselves going forward".

 

[Whisper]

Good thing, with more and more catering to faggots and avoiding normal people, "West" civilization is going down.

Good riddance.

 

[Zewp]

Why do they give out so many spoilers? What the fuck is their problem?

Spoilers? No. Romance options are selling points in Bioware games.

 

[msxyz]

Does this game need Origin like all the rest of the recent EA sofware?

This alone may be a good reason to skip it.

 

[Martius]

Yup, just like all recent EA games.

 

[Elfberserker]

At this point I don't care which character we can bone with our chosen ones.
As long as there will be brothels and hookers then my romance and boning needs are satisfied.

Besides If recent bioware games are any indication, I expect that DA:I will be in 5€ bucket sale in month or two.
I still hold on hope that DA:I can be entertaining...

 

[Roguey]

lol if you are a straight man and getting mad at who you can't romance in a video game

Why do they give out so many spoilers? What the fuck is their problem?

Because Biodrones get really mad if they try to romance someone for dozens of hours and it turns out they can't. This nips that in the bud and they can create their character with their romance in mind.
