I know it's not easy to make out, but Cassandra is in fact a straight woman. And Lelianna seems to be a member of the Faceless Men now.
 
I look forward to the gender-queer, otherkin romance options that will be available in DA3.
looks like you got your wish there with that "Bull" character


also lets count the romance options:

for female PCs: 4, three straight options and one gay
both gender: 2
for male PCs: 2, one straight option and one gay

guess which audience they are pandering to here

From the fervor of the female fan base when it comes to romance options its not really surprising, especially since most of the male fan base doesn't consider it as a primary thing.

There's a romance options with a chick - check, done - in my book at least.

It's BG2 but in reverse. Bet the butthurt levels are high already.

That just means there's more male party member characters than female ones.

So what are y'all proposing? That they add chicks to the story b/c you want more choice in your pixel fuck sessions? I'd rather they design the story then figure out plausible love connections. I hope that's what took place. If dudes got fewer options this time, I'm not that concerned.

I bet that means they die. Though they should be romanceable anyway. If you're gonna reach for the tranny dating sim market you may as well go for broke and throw a bone to the necrotrannyphiliac scene.

This. All day long. I just want the game characters to act in a semi normal fashion. Not some bitch Mexican guy crying about his faggot husbands death, and not some gnarly ass alien bitch coming on to me. For fucks sake.

Varric not being romanceable again is an even bigger disappointment for me.
A-fucking-men. That was the biggest atrocity of DA2. I'll be honest; the only romances I've ever really liked were like, the pseudo romance with Bishop in NWN2. Sort of there, but not really. I don't need it thrown in my face.

BUT VARRIC...was my bro. We were meant to be together. So terrible.

Varric would just lie about it, give his bros high fives, then make out with his xbow some more. Why bother?

Am I the only one who feels like the 'intended' romance options always feel trite for the sole reason that they are so obvious and planned?

And if they want to cater to a male audience they should make it like Witcher where you get to bang random women constantly and get cards for them. Because nothing satisfies a nerd's desires like women flocking to them and trading cards.
