All of the early game flirt options I\u2019ve seen in <em>Veilguard<\/em> are nice, chill things to say to someone you like but don\u2019t know very well. That might seem like faint praise, but let\u2019s take a little tour of some of the most outrageous flirt options in BioWare games.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Dragon Age and Mass Effect didn\u2019t always have flirt options that were labeled in the UI as flirtatious \u2014 instead, you\u2019d have to simply keep your companion approval high and infer what counted as signaling your intentions. That was not always easy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">During a conversation in the first Mass Effect game, for instance, your colleague Kaidan&nbsp;confesses his struggles with debilitating migraines (a side effect of his telekinetic abilities). If a female Shepard player character made the dialogue choice to express gentle sympathy, the game counted that as flirting. Even if you made no overt signs of intimate affection, Kaidan would eventually get pissed at you for leading him on, which, suffice to say, did not endear me. A person should be able to tell a guy, \u201cHey man, that really sounds like it sucks,\u201d without it being taken as a relationship commitment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\"><em>Dragon Age 2<\/em> was the first Dragon Age game to use the now-standard BioWare conversation wheel, which explicitly indicates tone, clarification questions, and, of course, whether a line mechanically counts toward the game\u2019s romance plotlines. <em>Dragon Age 2<\/em> is also the game where \u2014 after Anders tells you that since inviting a spirit of Justice to inhabit him, he has no idea where his personality ends and its begins \u2014 a smart-mouthed player character can flippantly quip, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=7RkPg79WbVs\"><em>Well, at least the demon\u2019s got a hot bod<\/em><\/a>. The game\u2019s animation did not support suggestive eyebrow wiggling, but one presumes it is implied.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">And while <em>DA2<\/em>\u2019s Merrill, a sweet mage who\u2019s just moved into a human city for the first time after her elven clan disowned her, is one of my favorite characters in the whole game, I\u2019ve never romanced her. That\u2019s because I\u2019ve never been able to get over how your first opportunity to flirt with her happens immediately after she tells you you\u2019re the only person she knows. <em>Dragon Age 2<\/em>! Right now, Merrill needs more friends! She doesn\u2019t need me trying to smash!&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">When I brought up <em>Dragon Age: The Veilguard<\/em>\u2019s comparatively normal flirt options, my co-worker Petrana laughed and immediately remembered a conversation with Cullen, your military advisor in <em>Dragon Age: Inquisition<\/em>. It\u2019s not the first moment you have to signal your affection for him, but this early flirt involves looking him in the eyes and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ij5H-AEwHrA&amp;t=34s\">asking him if he\u2019s celibate<\/a>. I can confidently call that an HR violation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/dragon-age-the-veilguard-lets-me-flirt-like-i-have-some-freaking-chill-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\" data-caption=\"\" data-portal-copyright=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">This is all why I was ready for Rook, the player character of <em>Dragon Age: The Veilguard<\/em>, to step forward into the arena of love with, well, a certain <em>forwardness<\/em>. Instead, I was wowed by Rook\u2019s earnest cool.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Bellara, the scatterbrained but dedicated researcher, apologizes for rambling, and a flirtatious Rook can tell her that they like seeing her enthusiasm. They can tell Taash they enjoy traveling together. There were a couple times I chose a flirt option just because it seemed like the nice thing to say. Since the days of Ol\u2019 Friend Zone Kaidan, BioWare has updated the dialogue wheel to give explicit indications of when romantic dialogue options <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/dragon-age-veilguard-guides\/471892\/romance-options-all-how-to-romance-characters#can-you-lock-out-of-other-romances\">open up and lock in romance plotlines<\/a>. And thank goodness! I\u2019m not trying to smooch Lucanis on this run, but I <em>do<\/em> want to check in with him about whether he\u2019s OK being alone with the demon in his head. He\u2019s been through a lot!&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Options <em>did<\/em> get tastefully hornier later, like when my Rook told a companion, \u201cI think your fingers are perfect,\u201d and, \u201cWow, in my daydreams, this is where you lean over me and slap the wall.\u201d As they should \u2014 my Rook knows these characters better now, so she\u2019s established trust and, maybe more importantly, a <em>vibe<\/em>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">I hit a lot of flirt buttons for a lot of different characters in the early hours of <em>Dragon Age: The Veilguard<\/em>, and I was ready to hear a real doozy of a line fall out of Rook\u2019s mouth. I was looking forward to having a healthy laugh about it, taking a screenshot for my friends, and moving on. Instead, I found my Rook saying a ton of nice, supportive things to her new, hot acquaintances.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\"><em>Veilguard<\/em> hits a best-of-both-worlds middle ground between the more overt romantic excesses of previous games, <em>and<\/em> doesn\u2019t get me in social hot water for just being vulnerable and nice to my companions. Is this what flirting is like in real life? As previously stated, I\u2019m not in a particularly good position to know. What I can say for certain is that it\u2019s exactly the kind of incremental evolution of romance storytelling that I like to see in a new BioWare RPG. New developments in world-building, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/opinion\/473379\/dragon-age-veilguard-combat-review\">new developments in gameplay<\/a>, and, yes, new developments in smooching.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/gaming\/478221\/dragon-age-veilguard-flirting-romance\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BioWare RPGS have earned a reputation for expansive world-building, complex characters, and difficult choices.
