DarthCaine Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Will there be romances and love interests in Dungeon Siege 3 ? (like in NwN2, Alpha Protocol, Mass Effect, Dragon Age etc)
Lord Elvewyn Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Will there be romances and love interests in Dungeon Siege 3 ? (like in NwN2, Alpha Protocol, Mass Effect, Dragon Age etc) Head wall, head wall! Please no! That's totally not DS1\DS2 and is really not needed.
C2B Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Will there be romances and love interests in Dungeon Siege 3 ? (like in NwN2, Alpha Protocol, Mass Effect, Dragon Age etc) From what we know. No.
Dabu Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 That's too bad... romances are the best written dialogs in Obsidian's games, imo... ;'d Sorry for my english, it's not so good.
WorstUsernameEver Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 That's too bad... romances are the best written dialogs in Obsidian's games, imo... ;'d Not sure if you were ironic, but I honestly don't think Obsidian has ever been that good at romance.
Dabu Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 I wasn't ironic. I just loved flirting with Mina, convincing Handmaiden that I was a good guy, teaching Visas about emotions and even being seduced by Gannayev (when I played as a woman). Dunno if you feel the same, but that was my favorite moments. Those were real, personal conversations. I loved them. :'] I think that romances could bring something more to Dungeon Siege 3. Sorry for my english, it's not so good.
WorstUsernameEver Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 I guess I identify romances from Obsidian more with Safiya coming out of nowhere and telling me she loved me just because I had high influence with her and the horrible horrible romance with the elf in NWN2.

Well, Elanee was less a romance and more "creepy, creepy stalker girl". She was Tali before Tali. (Well, a mix between Tali and Legion) I actually took her more of a joke though.

Dabu Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Actually, NWN2 was a pretty bad game, because Obsidian focused on mechanics and graphics, other than history and characters (you know, all that D&D 3.5 is freakin' big). I don't even know if I completed this title, but I loved Mask of the Betrayer. :') Couple of times actually. xD Sorry for my english, it's not so good.

I don't even know if I completed this title, but I loved Mask of the Betrayer. :') Couple of times actually. xD I'm actually one of the few that really liked NWN2. Yeah, it wasn't anything special but I had a lot of fun with Act 2 and Act 3. And it had some really funny banter.
Dabu Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Partially agree, but NWN2 compared to other Obsidian's game wasn't that good actually. Imo, it's better than most BioWare titles (NWN1, BG, KotOR1), but still it's nothing special. :') And i still think that romances in DS3 would make this game more personal, deeper and enjoyable. Obsidian can do it. Sorry for my english, it's not so good.
Archaven Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 A big NO. Action hack n slash with romance? Unless there's alot of dialogues in DS3 which is not a Dungeon Siege game at all then.
Dabu Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 If it's the same conversation system like in Mass Effect, you would probably have the "good answer" on the top of wheel and a "bad answer" on the bottom. If you don't like dialogs, you may just figure out your personality and always choose one type of answer - you won't even notice the choices in conversations. For me, more dialogs = better game. Plus romances = holy ****, it would be awesome. ;') Sorry for my english, it's not so good.
Sannom Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 There is actually one thing that kinda makes me wish to see romances in the party in DS3 : you will apparently always play with the same party, and a character that was just a companion in one play-through can become your main character in another. How weird (and fun) would it be that you could play the romance from both sides of the fence ?
Starwars Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 I'd lean towards not wanting them personally but I don't really care too much either way. Just... if they're in, make them good. Listen to my home-made recordings (some original songs, some not): http://www.youtube.c...low=grid&view=0

Morgoth Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Romances are great if they're done well - meaning non-Bioware way. I liked the little flirts in Alpha Protocol. Rain makes everything better.
Dabu Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Romances are great if they're done well - meaning non-Bioware way. Only Shepard-Garrus in Mass Effect 2 when you play as a woman is cool. :') Sorry for my english, it's not so good.
faloow PL Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 i don't need any romantic in DS3. a big no for this
Archaven Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 The game is an action hack and slash.. Unless really done well and linear, it's not really recommended in DS3.
Labadal Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 If I had a say in this, wich I don't, I would say no please. But it isn't really a big deal if there are romances or not.
Tryphikik Posted February 8, 2011 Posted February 8, 2011 I'd like romances... I mean, i'm not really looking for Dungeon Siege 1 or 2... I enjoyed those games quite a bit, but gameplay and storytelling has evolved since those games came out. Which is why when people say adding something(like romances for example) would make it not a Dungeon Siege game, I don't really get it. This is a continuation off of those two games, which means it should evolve and grow in new ways, not try and redo it completely... that is how a series gets stale and stagnant. I think Bioware and Obsidian have done a good job with romances personally. The best part being that if they don't suit your character, you don't have to pursue them.

Yay no sleeze, mush or other reason to bash my head against the wall moaning as I do - See the final line at http://www.gamebanshee.com/interviews/1018...-siege-iii.html Game +2 today. After day's of moaning and whinging about it things are improving today
Tel Aviv Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 No soup for you! http://www.gamebanshee.com/interviews/1018...-siege-iii.html
Nathaniel Chapman Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 We encourage you to develop IRL romances while playing the game. For instance, you can use our co-op feature to gain influence with your romantic partner, bonding over the corpses of spiders, swamp slugs, Lescanzi mercenaries, and Dakkenweyr.
