His conclusions cannot be incorrect in this discussion, merely different from yours. Having said that, the only way to argue against or around the OP's line of reason is to debate with him/her the qualities of an 'old school RPG' and the intellectual or emotional investment he/she has to those qualities, and then why those qualities still exist in Dragon Age 2 - if in somewhat of an evolved and cultured form.

Is there any person in kotOR 2 that can be like Bastila?? I mean is there someone you can love??
Not really like KotOR...not even close. One of the lead designers over there thinks that love plots have no real place in RPG's. I beg to differ with him, but that's another argument, another day.
The romances in K2 are nearly non-existant, male or female. They basically boil down to innuendo and vague references, but nothing even half as satisfying as K1. The Female Exile romance options are badly done. So vague. So very vague.

Very likely something they have in common with Codexers.

Are you salying that Bioware fans do not know what realistic relationships are like? How can you generalise and label people like that?
Jools said:Nothing new under the sun there, if it wasn't that the thread is from 2005. I had the impression all the romances shit was something kinda recent, started by DAO and continued by ME2 (and DA2, and every future biowhore game, now). Evidently, I was wrong: this shit was abound and advocated 6 years ago, before even ME1 was released. Meh.
