It's not the possibility of no qunari that's annoying me; it's that most of the characters they've released so far look fairly uninteresting.BruceyBaby said:Erm, it's more than likely a Qunari companion will be available... so I don't see why you're complaining.okogamashii said:I know they haven't released them all yet, but the ones they have so far are really boring. I mean, we have Isabela, who I hated in DAO, and am upset to see her again, Aveline, and your brother and sister. Fenris looks like he'll be pretty interesting, but other than that I'm really miffed about this. And what's with the rumors that Varric is the female's LI? Because I would rather vomit blood than even consider??*vomits*
Personally, I would love to have another qunari, since I liked Sten and now they have horns
I hope so, because I'll have to have her around for at least one playthrough, unless they give us another mage. Either way, I'm sure she won't be one-dimensional, since Bioware has some pretty beast writers. Just, sometimes they write annoying characters (see: Alistair).Icarion said:
I think they meant to write him like that. A kinds of young and moralistic chap with a wierd sense of Humor. I like it though.okogamashii said:
ragon_Age_2]. Aveline looks boring, not much info about Bethany so I can't comment there. However, I'm guessing her character will depend on the player and his choices.
I like how you think good sir. Anyways haven't seen any info on the companions, so I have no problem.quantumsoul said:
*nods* That credo, and the Blizzard companion, are carved into the foundation of Gaming. To deny them is tap-dance on quicksand.Straying Bullet said:
Ignoring your prejudices, do you have to like a character for them to be a good character? Because here's the thing: there's lots of people in the world who enjoy casual sex. There maybe even be some *gasp* in this very thread. The cast of characters in a video game should be just as varied as people are in life. It keeps things interesting, giving you a reason to get to know them all.okogamashii said:You're right, it is ignorant: hookers ask for money.

Then it's obvious you really didn't pay attention to the character or her background, or you would realize calling her a "hooker" is plain ignorant of the material, as a few posters have already corrected you on well enough.okogamashii said:Yes, but "hooker" is faster to say. Also, more polite than what I really think about her.KEM10 said:
And I payed plenty of attention to her background. I know she was married to a man she only kind of liked. I know that when he died, she inherited his ship. I know she and Zevran have some history, and I know that she knows you for all of ten minutes before offering to have a threesome, which in my book is pretty damn slutty. So, when I say "hooker" I mean "disgusting ho-bag who I wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole, much less go anywhere near".
EDIT: Sorry for the rant, I just really, really don't like Isabela. I had to talk to her in the game to get the duelist spec, and she just really rubs me the wrong way.
This is true, and that's fine if other people like her or whatever. But I don't, which was why she was listed as one of the reasons I'm so far disappointed.DustyDrB said:Ignoring your prejudices, do you have to like a character for them to be a good character?

They explain that, too, though maybe not in that article? The Tal'Vashoth(those mercenaries) tend to remove their horns when they defect.Irridium said:
