Re: Dragon Age reviewed

Well I've developed the Zevran relationship further and I am even more firmly in the "he's not bi" camp.

He eventually admits to having fallen in love with a woman who he then killed. Not once does he regale you with a story of exploits with men except for a very business like discussion about how he is required to be open-minded. All of his romantic responses come out of the blue and clash with his backstory which is all about his female conquests.


I think with a female PC his story is really well written - the whole question of whether he is seducing you to survive or us falling in love. It rings less true as a same sex relationship. Meanwhile, Alistair seems to be constantly hitting on me and it doesn't seem to be gender specific flirting. It actually bugs me a bit because it just feels so backwards against the rest of the great characterization in the game. Le sigh.
