>>3067751Yeah, at least Larian gave us Gale.
I was surprised by just how much I ended up liking him, even if he may not be a rugged warrior like Alistair and Cullen.
Hot, nerdy magic man won me over lol.
I'll gladly take him over Dorian, Zevran, and the Veilguard dudes any day.
Now don't get me wrong, I still think those guys are good characters. In fact, Dorian is easily one of my favorite companions. I'm just not attracted to any of them, neither in looks nor personality. And it doesn't help that none of those guys are very romantic, and that they all embody certain negative stereotypes and tropes that I'm really tired of seeing in m/m romance.
And the only thing I'm genuinely ticked off about is that those are our only options, as far as papa Bioware is concerned. We're only ever allowed to have outcast angst, morally gray spies with a fucked up past, and catty, flamboyant queens...
