I just finished act 10 and had drinks with spite and lucanis, and it's just sad. I'd like to think I'd play again and try another character but I don't even know who to try.
I was hoping for some antivan passion and charisma I feel like I had more of that with zevran in DAO. Spite interactions woulda been great! Like if spite liked rook but lucanis was reserved, spite could have done more lifting being a romance bridge. Or if lucanis really despised becoming an abomination (which has extremely little blow back in this world that used to want you dead on sight for that) then he could have tried to be more "I'll show you the kind of man I am! Give me a chance to prove my heart. I am more than this demon." And spite could have been SPITEFULL at rook over being boxed in because of lucanis's efforts to be human.. FOR ROOK!
Davrin is kinda meh. Dose he or dosent he trust the griffin, oh he didn't eat a dying Halla now he has 100% trust? He's the saddest greywarden I've seen. I wasn't a fan of Blackwall, but I adored Alistair and his character progression! I love playing as an elf but I became a noble human for that man so I could have him in the end and marry him for the other games.
Emmerich? I don't feel the need to flirt with a guy the age of my father sorry guys not my trauma Llama. He's cool to have around and I like Manfred.
The girls are all a bust. Taash I don't even talk to..at all, i don't wanna deal with her crap. Ballara is the forever bleeding heart and 80% of her personality is "I ramble" worse than merril. Harding is just not engaging for me. Her side story didn't make tons of sence and I kinda just did it to get through it. Neve is a maybe she seems kinda like a person but if she's gonna flirt with lucanis all the time there's no point.
Could we get small fixes over time? More flirting dialog when walking around, edit some sences to be more special/thoughtful? Or in like 4 months announce the romance upgrade that may bring people back to the game? I'm not a game developer, but I feel like it's possible. I want this game to be salvageable for the franchise sake.
