Triss or Yenefer is definitley the hardest for a fan of the series. Also the situation between Geralt, Triss and Yen is way more complicated than suggested by the brief explanation.
What makes it especially hard is how neither of them are really that good of people. Correct me if I'm wrong, never read the books, but I've heard that both Yen and Triss do some shady shit.
+John Stovall Triss took advantage of Geralt's loss of memory. If you read the books, you'd know that Yen (at least if you follow the lore) is the One. Yen died trying to save Geralt's life, but they both died.
Livo Nata relatable. TBH I love iron bull but that's only cuz he's funny af, but in terms of romancing I adore Dorian. Like one glance at his moustache and I was love stricken
For me it's gotta be Dorian and Iron Bull. I'm a sucker for Iron Bull's kinkiness and softness yet I relate too much to Dorian to not want to give him affection pffff.
Ren Hana At first I was pondering too if I should go for Iron Bull or Dorian but then over time Iron Bull turned into what Varric was to Hawke in DA2 - just the best bro you could wish for. So yeah, that made the choice quite easy. Now on my second playthrough I am playing as a female Qunari and once again I have no idea who to pick though...
Or having a girlfriend and trying to give your character a romantic partner...but not wanting her to judge you based on that or be jealous because you made your character do it lol. >.< so rough heh. But then if you play as the opposite gender, they do the same thing because you're a female character then. No real winning heh xP
I liked Liara, but...I hated the fact that you only reconnect with her professionally in ME2 while she aims to become the new Shadow Broker. Don't get me wrong, she's still my go-to choice for any of the romances, but the fact that she's written off romantically in ME2 still pisses me off.
Am I the only person to find that Liara is a bit psychotic? I seem to remember her mentioning something about "flaying someone alive with her mind", and she didn't sound the least bit sarcastic.
Well the video is supposed to be romance but that comes down more to who you let live. As far as that goes it's nice guy vs strong woman w/ misguided and eventually forgotten prejudices. Powers-based biotic or guns-based soldier. But with literally romancing them, it's based on gender; if you kill Kaiden as a female, no dick for you; kill Ashley as a male, you still get lady parts from Liara.
if you read any of the books, it's a no brainer since you will team Yen hardcore. if you don't, the developers really make it hard to choose since you were romancing Triss in the first 2 games, now there's Yen in the 3rd sequence. who did you choose in your gameplays though?
It was how I began getting involved into the Witcher Series. I first play Witcher 2. Then, following the same pattern I had with Gears of War and Halo, only after playing the game did I went into books. Witcher 2, then reading, then witcher 1. I imagine if I had read the books first, I would not hesitate to go Yen.
If you've read the books you'd know Geralt and Yen are basically soul mates. But what put me off Triss other than how she manipulated you in the Witcher 2, is her voice acting. It's so disgustingly American compared to every other voice in the game.
Kaidan or Ashely was never hard but thats cause I didn't do enough research on ME1 and thought Liara was the default. Now since I've gone so far without romancing either I don't view them as lovers. Ashely is my sister from another mister and Kaidan is _"sacrificial lamb #1"_. Tali is my MaleShep's wife for life which made the break up Liara awkward as I never wanted her and don't even like Asari. My FemShep's husband is Wrex.....he just doesn't know it yet.
+MrDjBigZ damn straight but too bad there won't be a bloodrayne 3, Rayne was a complete ripoff of a comic called Durahm Red from 2000AD. The hair face and even clothes are exactly the same, so the game company (Terminal Reality) got sued and can not make anymore Bloodrayne.
i was just curious about your choice but yeah i did too but i have always like the bitchy witty characters like morrigan and yennefer not like vivienne though she annoys me
+jack brearley I thought he was already in love with Yen when he made that wish? And besides, Triss basically tricked Geralt into thinking he loved her by using his amnesia to her advantage.
But with that mission with Triss, and that mage boat. I chose the option I love her and then she sails off. Was sad... She came back and I was happy. Wow that sounded dumb but it was a nice scene in the game
Solas is trash he can fuck off, I'm never romancing him. Not even a choice. Sure you could say that it's for the angst, but it's honestly not even that angsty it's just annoying and, so is he.
I always pick Paragon choices in Mass Effect, and recently I had completed an entire ME game marathon (in preparation for Andromeda) with the mindset to have Garrus the entire series as my romance. And of course just to refresh myself on lore. However, picking Paragon in ME1 (to those of you who don't know, Paragon is always the top right choice on the conversation wheel) resulted in me accidentally romancing Kaidan. So I panicked and killed him on Virmire... just to avoid the relationship drama in ME3...... #IMABADPERSON
uhm you dont need to always pick up the top answer to get paragon.. also you dont need every paragon point as you get full after like 3/5 of the game (easier with dlcs)
hahaha i always justify killing kaidan by thinking he was always in pain anyway with his outdated implants. let him die a hero. no more pain. and now i'm just reading the wikia and it says he only has migraines from the L2s. shoot.
Leliana has her perks, but she lacks that mysterious, sassy quality that Morrigan has. Plus I feel like romancing Morrigan is a greater feat to achieve, especially since you typically end up fighting Flemeth to get to that point.
Late to this party, but Leliana for me 100%. Morrigan is a well written character and in any other game (maybe not ME2) she'd be romance option of choice, but that Leliana mojo is just too strong.
Zevran vs Alistair tho. Zevran was my bae, but Alistair being all cute and shit and Zev arriving quite late to the party had me almost picking Alistair.
very true... however leliana was a nice vanilla romance... that and if you chose leliana, you had the option for an orgy with isabela, whereas morrigan will shut that shit down quick. lol... this is why we romance both until the last possible moment and chose to visit the pearl early on... without morrigan in the party. :P
Since i play as femshep...If we are talking me1...kaiden. liara has the personality of a door knob. As in none. Me2. Thane. Sorry....garrus isnt as good as thane. Me3: still kaiden. Now if we are talkin male shep me1 no one. Cuz i kill ashley. Every. Time. Then its Tali or jack and only tali or jack.
I choose Morrigan for a few reasons. 1) She has some very seductive qualities about her. 2) Claudia Black makes her sound so fucking attractive. 3) I like making the story in Origins about a man seeking vengeance for the death of his family then ultimately finding love in a witch who laughed at the notion of the concept. Plus the amount of care Morrigan has for you after you do a ton of nice things for her is just the cherry on top. 4) In real life, red-heads and gingers tend to hate me so being with Leliana would have been super-awkward since my character in the game was a version of me.
Claire Dé Lune I stopped halfway through my playthrough just to restart to romance Dorian. That's how amazing of a character he is. AND WHO DOESNT LOVE HIS FUCKING MOUSTACHE AND DAT ASS BITCH SIGN ME THE FUCK UP GOOD SHIT 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Sofi Woot I'm playing Dragon Age for the third time already and that moustache always gets me. But don't you love his voice? I could listen him list the reasons why he thinks the inquisition soldiers' armour is horrendous all day. I never thought I'd see other people in love with that fabulous moustache, I feel so happy
Choosing between Garrus or Thane in ME2 was really hard for me, but I decided to go with Garrus because he is definitely the less emotionally traumatic option.
Lily Estheim I don't know I tried to go with Garrus in one playthrough and it just felt weird not because he's a bad romance per se but because it was never that type of relationship for me me. Whether I played as a male Shepard or female Shepard, Garrus vakarian was my brother from another mother and because of that Romancing and felt weird no disrespect to you of course or anyone else who romance Garrus. From me when it came to the original Mass Effect Trilogy of all the romance options my favorite has to be( don't hate me) Liara t'soni. I just feel like I've all the characters male or female Shepard was closest to Liara even if you didn't want me answering the first game. I don't know it just felt like Shepherd had the strongest connection to her and not just because she was some hot asari chick but a true connection that was Far deeper more I guess you could say spiritual I don't know which made it all the more meaningful if you refrain from Romancing her in the first game until the 3rd at least in my opinion.
Thane because of all the emotions. If you have the Citadel DLC, that's the only time you will ever see Shepard cry. Also romancing Garrus would have been way too weird for me. Same with a male Shepard and romancing Tali. Those two are too much like siblings to me.
thane in me3 and if it was needed citadel dlc was too much man whyy i would give half of my army and get a worse ending if i could look for a cure for him
Patrick Not star Hahahahhahahahahahahahaahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!! You crack me up!
Late comment but while playing ME1 I did everything I could to get into Liara's pants, while completely ignoring Ashley. Then Liara didn't give two shits about me, and Ashley pretty much forced me to bang her.
Really? Kaden and Ashley? I would've though Jack or Miranda would've been the more opposite types for this list considering that's what your whole shtick was for this list.
+Tango Whiskey I don't know, Miranda has those buns of steel, but Jack is surprisingly a nice choice (read her files in the Shadow Broker station or just listen to her and how vulnerable she really is) especially when you see her in 3, she hot AF with long hair.
+Zandrous i dunno, to me perfect genetics seems like a really great choice. but my second choice would be EDI, followed by jack, though im not a big fan of her hair
Tali vs. everyone else in ME. I mean come on, the sadness in her voice in the end could tear a hole in the toughest of hearts. [spoiler] I still hear it now... Tali: "I can't stay behind" Shepard: "Don't argue with me Tali" Tali: "Don't leave me behind" Shepard: "I need you to make it out of this alive. Go back to Ranoch. Build yourself a home" Tali: "I have a home" *Shepard starts walking away *Tali holds her arm out to him Tali: "Come back to me" Shepard: "Go!" *Shepard waves them to leave *Tali lowers her arm in sadness and defeat, then complies That last part gets me, every time.
OMG, What about the choice between Fenrish and Anders? Also, i was very heartbroken at the moment when you have your first romance/sex scene with Cassandra, if you tell her that your love to her is not real. Her answer killed me :(
Aleksandr Jekimov The Fenris / Anders killed me. Because after Fenris does what he does and leaves, Anders welcomes you with open arms. And then in the end ultimately betrays you with the notion of helping him without second thought @_@
Master Sensui Yeah...and I dislike her even more for wrapping all the men around her finger. I am utterly disappointed by Bull! ;) Solas is a complex person, but after all, he is evil. He is like The Elder One or The Lord Seeker. He thinks his actions are righteous. But seriously....he was risking and is willed risking Thedas. That isn't an option, and it never will be, anywhere.
Leeloo you're right I just hope the rumors are true that in the next Dragon Age games he's the main antagonist so I could either talk some sense into him or more than likely kick his ass
MrBig Inthcave I never even would consider Solas a romance option. It was interesting listening to him sometimes but there still always was something very off-putting about it. Like leading an interview with a psychopath.
They both definitely have personality if you delve into them. once you do the only choice is to kill Ashley (ESPECIALLY if she kills Wrex without permission). Kaidan really only shows his personality through his romance though, which is unfortunate. But he's awesome, especially in the third game
If I recall correctly, part of what makes her a great dynamic partner is that you can influence her to ease up on the alien races. She'll see things Paragon Shepherd's way after a while, and not hold resentment towards aliens (particularly Turians). She isn't a "racist", but more of a "I don't like their type" kind of character. Not as outward as XO Pressley, per se (who also sees things Paragon Shepherd's way in the second game).
Are you kidding me? He's a complete fuckboy. The only reason he gets those headaches is because of the fumes from keeping his head so far up his ass all the time. He claims to love you, but completely betrays you calling you a traitor and a coward in the second game, then has the fucking audacity to be upset if you "cheated" in ME2 even though he made it abundantly clear he wanted nothing to do with you and will only even talk to you after you save his pathetic ass AGAIN and he's physically strapped to a hospital bed and can't escape. Even after he recovers there's not one apology, not one word of thanks, he even goes so far as to side with the same people he _knew_ from experience were complete retards for ignoring Shepard in the first game and almost destroying the galaxy rather than listen to you. Shepard should have just ended his pathetic existence on Horizon. At least Ash has a bit of backbone and the source of her conflict is just her competitive nature and wanting to be acknowledged as Shepard's equal. They're both still boring compared to Jack, Miranda, Tali, Garrus, Thane and Liara, but at least they're both more interesting than fucking Jacob.
Agreed that Jacob is the dullest character ever. And I thought Kaiden was bad. Jacob was a snoozefest. I actually kinda enjoy Thane? But ultimately Liara. Ha ha.
Fallout 4: Romancing Piper or Cait or Curie!!! seriously such a hard choice (Playing as a male protagonist) as Bethesda did a great job revolving quests, campaign, side missions and back stories to the characters as well as the conversations and character builds of the Romance characters. very suprised this did not make it on the list.....Does anyone else agree with this?
piper was my choice in my first playthrough. cait in my 2nd, but after I found out you can get a synth body for curie it was impossible to pass that up.
***** Not that i'm implying it was hard for me, I had predicted this choice way before episode 5 came out and I shipped Max and Chloe from the beginning so i knew what i was getting into, fuck Arcadia Bay tbh.
I chose Triss. Now I haven't read the books and most people who read the books say "How could you choose Triss?" Basically, Yen is an insufferable bitch. In the game. She really is one of the least likeable characters in the game for mine. She is no more decent than Djikstra.
Ben Guillemet That's how she tries to present herself frok the outside. Same for Triss. She also tries to be the opposite of herself. She's not an angel how she seems to be. She's a heartless traitor. Read the books. You won't regret it. In the end, Yennefer and Geralt are the ones truly meant for each other.
Honestly, I found the most difficult romantic choice I've had to make thus far actually being the overall Garrus or Tali decision... Naturally this one is also gender dependent, but perhaps it's because of the part of me that's so fascinated by culture and cultural differences. The choices all offered in this list were mostly human, of some variant or another, but these two offer some insight into the difficulties of getting to know another's customs and culture. I'm absolutely delighted that Catherine was on this list, because... realistically, the romantic decision is a huge part of what the game is about in it's own warped way.
+TheAsylumCat let's be fair. Skyrim was a massive game and the writers could not spend more than maybe a couple of days on the major characters. Serana was from a DLC where she was deeply tied to the story no matter what side you picked.
After a few PC mods did it become increasingly difficult. Vanilla game is basically "Which odd alien-esque looking character looks the least weirdest and would make the most sense"... so, Mjoll, Aela, Brelyna, or Ysolda (Maybe Muiri if you go bad), BUT get a few character and texture mods, some that renew and smooth out appearances, and a few that simply add dynamic, realistic companions with personalities and stories, it becomes pretty damn hard... Coulda married Elisif and been King! My last playthrough, I ended up with Faralda, of all people. Two reasons, A) the only Vanilla character that wants to marry you who you don't have to do some little fetch quest for (cutting room floor mod, you are TECHNICALLY doing it for Nirya) and B) the mod I have makes her look like this gorgeous famous stand-up comedian I am in LOVE with! interestingly enough, Serana wasn't even a contender. You take away how she is more attractive than the vanilla choices and put them all on equal ground... she is actually just a whiny, ungrateful jerk that constantly step in your way.
In the case of Dragon Age, Im all for Cullen and Iron Bull as a female. But as male, really Cassandra is the most interesting one to me. Thats just what I think. Ashley or Kaidan in Mass Effect? Fuck both of them. Mistrusting Shepard throughout 2 and most of 3? Ash has the most rude words toward my Shepard and she also isnt very tolerant of Kaidans whining. So basically, she hates both of them. The real question for Mass Effect is Garrus, Tali or Liara? Im gonna say this now... SHAKARIAN FOREVER.
SHOO choosing between Vishnal or Dylas in Rune Factory 4 is the hardest decision to make. An adorable much-angst tsundere or an equally adorable loyal butler?? Trust me, it's even harder to decide when you see everyone's events.... gdi. I'm so sad not many people play RF4, it's one of the best games I've played. It's the _only_ game I've ever played that I've had an actual emotional connection with. And I've played a LOT of games. What game makes you mourn a death that never happened, be elated about a proposal that also isn't real, almost rage quit a hundred times, be surprised another 100 times, and has a high amounts of chanced things that keep you on high alert?? Tell me that kind of game! I'd like to play that.
Aribeth from Neverwinter Nights... you thought you finally found a place in her heart when you get the ring... but desire for revenge was greater then new love... i liked Aribeth story so much...
Hmm, I picked Jaheira in BG 2, as I kinda felt bad she was widowed. Also, she was much nicer after losing Gareth than she was in BG 1. ME1, I don't even recall. Tali I believe. ME 2 was Jack on my last playthrough. ME 3, 1rst playthrough Tali, 2nd I continued the Jack romance, but it let me have a 1 night stand with Wallers (Diane, the reporter). NwN, I forget. NwN 2 the Tiefling, DA:O Morrigan, heh, like every time we camped. Alpha Protocol: The Asian chick. The first romance I can recall was in a game called Defender of the Crown. An OLD strategy game with some jousting, catapult wall breaking which leads to a couple of sword fights, rescuing the princess, getting married (so you get a ton of land and troops), and the best part, two naked silhouettes in a castle window. I dl'd it for Windows 7/8/10 about 6 months ago. Still kinda fun, but much more difficult as apparently an i5 makes much better use of the AI than a C64 did.
After multiple playthroughs my favorite relationships were: 1. Cullen 2. Dorian 3. Josephine 4. Cassandra 5. Iron Bull 6. Sera Loved the conflicting natures of the Dorian and Cullen romances, but loved Josephine's overall personality and sense of self EDIT: If Leliana or Morrigan had been romanceable in Inquisition id go with them in a heart beat
Sera was the best for me,I was surprised to learn afterward that I could only romance her 'cause I was playing a woman.I thought she'd swing bot ways xD.
There's also the fact that as a Light-Sided character, you have the option to lead her away from the Dark Side. It's a pretty important part of her arc. That said, I always go with Carth, myself. %D
+ComicallyMacabre You like Carth? Damm a few of you exists in the world People hate Carth so much that They Underrate Kaiden from Mass Effect because they are voiced by the same guy.
ComicallyMacabre Carth has a charm within him that I cannot explain Yes he whines about his past all the time but I forgave him when I learned that he had trust issues He is also my favorite Party companion I used him all the time. I always had him with me. And I'm sure most people doesn't even know Kaiden's personality because They are too busy Fapping at Liara or something.
My all time favorite Dragon Age romance is totally Fenris friendly romance route I love how at first meeting he seems like a brute who literally rips someone’s heart out to someone who has gone through so much shit and just being able to help him through it
How are Cullen and Cassandra the most important romances in DAI? I mean I didn't like the Blackwall romance too much, but Solas, Sera, Josephine, The Iron Bull and Dorian are in my opinion better, but objectively speaking at least equal to those two. As a matter of fact Cullen won't even respond to your romantic attempts if you are Qunari or a dwarf. So if you are playing as either, each of which has interesting effects on other discussions, you're completely locked out of that romantic arc. Also you can choose Liara in Mass Effect 1, and she is the only option available in both cases and versus the other one, as in ME1 both Ashley & Kaiden do not compete for either male or female Sheppard, so it isn't even a choice between the two. Liara is also the only romance that continues in all three titles, as ME2 doesn't really feature the others, and Tali & Garrus are friends only in ME1 and only become romantic interests in ME2.
I'm not so good with the evil character development so that usually slims down my choices. The fact that you had BG2 in there was epic so thank you for that! Aerie was my go to relationship.
Piper the adorable girl next door who wants the truth and want to protect her sister or Cait the Irish drug addict who has a troubled past and just needs someone to look after her
Asderuki How can I say it ... I didn't want to be rude to her. It sounds stupid but I picked the least rude option ... it didn't even sound that romantic if I remember correctly xD
Not for me. I love Liara, she's a great character but I'm a sucker for the super cute bashful type. The moment I knew I could romance Tali, my entire playthrough of ME2 was skewed in the direction of making that happen. Although, to be fair, Liara is my second choice, possibly tied with Jack.
+Barbowan Liara's not my cup of tea because I felt Bioware was forcing her on players. Tali has always been my #1 girl in Mass Effect, but I did make a character that romanced Liara due to a character in a Mass Effect fanfic I had written but never finished. Also Shameless Self-Promotion, but on my channel I made a Mass Effect 2 music video showcasing the Liara and Tali romances with my characters Henry and Zach Shepard, respectively. It uses the song Without You by Breaking Benjamin, and I plan on releasing a second version eventually showing off the Mass Effect 3 romance sub-plots between the two pairings. If you check it out feel free to leave a comment on whether or not you enjoyed it.
I started getting anxious when I got to 2 or 3 and Mass Effect still hadnt popped up...relieved at the end (though...I def would have picked Mass Effect 2... Thane is SMOKIN! Rowr!)
Stardew Valley actually presented me with the largest conundrum in this area. There are so many well developed and interesting characters to romance, I had a hard time choosing. I loved Abigail's wannabe emo attitude, her love of the rain, her gorgeous purple hair. In the end though, I ended up going for Penny, with her bookish and geeky personality. What clinched it for me was a desire to get Penny out of that home she was living in. I've lived that life, I never want to go back to that, and I felt a major protective instinct to take her away to something much better.
It's funny, because the majority of love triangles here and in videogames in general are 2 girls and a guy, and in books/movies they're 2 guys and a girl, it shows who dominates each market....
Nevertheless most love triangles in novels are so damn annoying. Video games don't have that issue, because you can decide quite quickly to not got through this "I can't decide"-bullshit.
Well, I read the witcher books except sword of disney and ladle of the lake (which I'll be getting to on my sem break). So far, though, I don't necessarily see how Triss did anything wrong. Especially seeing as how she saved Geralt after he got wrecked by Vilgefortz; and, that Yen is kind of an insufferable cunt as far as I've read.
I think the nice thing about the _SR4_ romances is that each romance scene is illustrative of the relationship between the boss and his / her partner. By parodying the BioWare penchant for relationships (specifically as in Mass Effect) _SR4_ (perhaps unintentionally) made an argument for polyamory or complex families (such as the Church of All Worlds), in which sex is not exclusive to a couple, but at least allowed between members of the clan. Given that the Saints would engage in sex work (including prostitution) in _SR2_ and then got really anxious about fetishes and kink in _SR3,_ it left SR4 open to a lot of unintentional messaging.
Mass Effect I always choose Liara because she is one of the only characters that doesn't accept Shepard's death she is the only reason your alive and she doesn't get mad for you working with Cerberus because she is the reason your working with Cerberus, imagine how different the galaxy would of been if the Collectors got their hands on Shepard.
It is not a hard choice every time i play as Lavellan it is pretty easy to choose that egg-man over everyone else, even sweet cully-wully But the romance itself is hard and FUCKING HEART-BREAKING SWEET MAKER WHY
Uhh ... If you gave Viconia a Yes-Man, you failed the romance. The whole point of it was to guide her to overcome her education and eventually change alignment. Also, Jaheira made for a very intriguing romance. Granted, Aunty Jaheira was hard to stomach as a choice for romancing, but if you did, it got pretty interesting. Now, that being said, the only legit choice was Immoen with the infamous mod anyway, but the others at least made for interesting one-shots.
+SkyCobra Miranda was really manipulative. She became way better off later on in the game, but her attitude sucked in the beginning. She was ten times better than Ashley though.
yeah Ashley was xenophobic bordering on racist, and Miranda was blindly faithful to Cerberus and manipulative both are terrible people but for different reason atleast Miranda redeemed herself in the end
+Luke wood (darkcrimsonwolf) Ashley's redemption comes through death. Sending her to fight and die alongside the salarian troops is quite poetic. She dies protecting people of a race she was once one to hate. But yeah, if she lives that storyline kind of gets nixed. And also, legit Q, how does Miranda get redemption? Maybe I missed something because that is not what happened in my playthrough. After everything, she still picks a fight with Jack and refuses to acknowledge Cerberus' BS. She's less bitchy to the player character, maybe, but not in any other respect...
Glad to see good old BG2 on this list. The different romances there really shape what kind of character you play; whether you're a knight in shining armour, an evil sorceror, a neutral-aligned ranger ... there's something for everyone.
Tali or Jack for me. Jack is kinda similar to me so I really felt for her and wanted to help but Tali is always there for you, even when her people are threatening to exile her for treason she thinks about you before herself. That being said, I played through the game several times romancing every character, so I guess it's not that bad a dilemma.

Triss or Yenefer is definitley the hardest for a fan of the series. Also the situation between Geralt, Triss and Yen is way more complicated than suggested by the brief explanation.
Probably cause its the best game out of these lol
What makes it especially hard is how neither of them are really that good of people. Correct me if I'm wrong, never read the books, but I've heard that both Yen and Triss do some shady shit.
I kind of feel Triss redeems herself much better than Yennifer ( and also isn't struck with obnoxious personality disorder)
+John Stovall Triss took advantage of Geralt's loss of memory. If you read the books, you'd know that Yen (at least if you follow the lore) is the One. Yen died trying to save Geralt's life, but they both died.
Oli go read the books.
Going with both yen and triss was my biggest mistake in life.
i fell u
+relax is power u fell him
+BaconOrigins I du
Harem life is hard
yup and then Ciri died for me and i replayed the game :)
Mass Effect's choice isn't that hard... Garrus
SanguinaryPhoenix Garrus is my bro. Fuck that. Tali wins.
:D
Nah i prefer liara
Male shep choice is hard as hell. Liara Jack or Tali
Cullen and Cassandra? For me it's harder to choose between Cullen and Dorian ...
Livo Nata relatable. TBH I love iron bull but that's only cuz he's funny af, but in terms of romancing I adore Dorian. Like one glance at his moustache and I was love stricken
Livo Nata Add Solas for the heartbreaking into the mix and you have my main choises
For me it's gotta be Dorian and Iron Bull. I'm a sucker for Iron Bull's kinkiness and softness yet I relate too much to Dorian to not want to give him affection pffff.
Ren Hana At first I was pondering too if I should go for Iron Bull or Dorian but then over time Iron Bull turned into what Varric was to Hawke in DA2 - just the best bro you could wish for. So yeah, that made the choice quite easy. Now on my second playthrough I am playing as a female Qunari and once again I have no idea who to pick though...
Dorian all the way. I love him so much that my bf got jealous.
the hardest romantic choice is being with girlfriend or playing video games ... oh wait i don't ever have one :'(
I feel u
the feeeeeels
I feel u bro
Or having a girlfriend and trying to give your character a romantic partner...but not wanting her to judge you based on that or be jealous because you made your character do it lol. >.< so rough heh. But then if you play as the opposite gender, they do the same thing because you're a female character then. No real winning heh xP
Feel you're pain man. but she's also a gamer so I get to judge her choices as well. ;-)
yenenfer vs triss was the hardest
hands down
+adam sandle simple,pick neither.it's a lot easier to be a lone wolf(pub intended)
+James Adams (ducking pub)
+James Adams FUCKING PUN
I agree
i should have been on the list
People like you are the cringiest fucking people on the internet.
there is no hard choice
i will always choose u babe ;*
No Preston we should have been choosing a settlement instead that needs our help
Whether to romance you or paladin Danse
Mcreedy, you always romance mcreedy because he's the best motherfucking character.
Ashley or Kaidan? you act as if thats an interesting choice
Garrus
if i have to chose between those 2 i think il go withouth romance XD
I'd choose Kaidan
Ashley can only be courted by male Shep and Kaidan only by female Shep
How is this a choice!? XD
started up mass effect again and I'm finally trying out bro shep so now I actually have a tough choice. Miranda or Tali. :D
Obviously. There's No Shepard without Vakarian.
This reminds me of how there really needs to be a new Knights of the Old Republic that isn't multiplayer.
Agreed I enjoyed SWTOR's story and romances, but despised the MMORPG of the game.
I just want a solo story-driven Star Wars game that's made by any good company (Bioware, Naughty Dog, the old 2002 2K czech team, ect.)
Adam Bergeron Agreed, but preferably Bioware.
I feel the same way, the story is the only reason I play and when there is a gap between story chapters, I hardly play at all.
No, because Bioware isn't capable of making games of that caliber anymore. They'd find a way to ruin it.
Farcry 3 ending is here calling it now
I was thinking the same thing!
same
+noblewolf155 I thought you said, "I was drinking the same thing!".
+Mexxron Fidds lol
Live and save your friends or die and have sex which will you choose?
Kaidan or Ashley ?
It was harder to choose between Miranda and Jack , or Liara and Tali
I liked Liara, but...I hated the fact that you only reconnect with her professionally in ME2 while she aims to become the new Shadow Broker. Don't get me wrong, she's still my go-to choice for any of the romances, but the fact that she's written off romantically in ME2 still pisses me off.
Am I the only person to find that Liara is a bit psychotic? I seem to remember her mentioning something about "flaying someone alive with her mind", and she didn't sound the least bit sarcastic.
Well the video is supposed to be romance but that comes down more to who you let live. As far as that goes it's nice guy vs strong woman w/ misguided and eventually forgotten prejudices. Powers-based biotic or guns-based soldier. But with literally romancing them, it's based on gender; if you kill Kaiden as a female, no dick for you; kill Ashley as a male, you still get lady parts from Liara.
She's not psychotic!! She's a teenager!! It's the hormones!!!
leonmagnushikaru Teenager? Who, Liara? (How old is she, actually?)
Yea... but choice of killing your damn blue haired punk girlfriend, or destroying entire town insn't hard. c:
That was SO HARD in my opinion
It was hella hard. But i'm glad i pissed vortex club and other little shits. (i'm talking about destroying acradia bay)
gryzoncreations I chose Chloe too, sorry arcadia bay, but best friends over strangers
Exactly
+Hannah MP strangers? You have other friends there too and Chloe's entire family that of which you also have a relationship with.
The Witcher...that, to this day, cannot decide.
if you read any of the books, it's a no brainer since you will team Yen hardcore. if you don't, the developers really make it hard to choose since you were romancing Triss in the first 2 games, now there's Yen in the 3rd sequence. who did you choose in your gameplays though?
yea the books its all yen no choice to be made
It was how I began getting involved into the Witcher Series. I first play Witcher 2. Then, following the same pattern I had with Gears of War and Halo, only after playing the game did I went into books.
Witcher 2, then reading, then witcher 1. I imagine if I had read the books first, I would not hesitate to go Yen.
i only know the books after i heard others talking about them, about how the games are based on. i still team Yen in both book and game versions. lol
If you've read the books you'd know Geralt and Yen are basically soul mates. But what put me off Triss other than how she manipulated you in the Witcher 2, is her voice acting. It's so disgustingly American compared to every other voice in the game.
Skyrim.
There is a whole land of people out there you can marry.
WHICH ONE THOUGH?
Lydia
+*Bethany Beckett* A better question is: Who cares?
Aela
Serana obviously. And of course, she's the only one you can't marry. WTF
Haha, true ...
Liara, Lair of the Shadow Broker.... Nuff said ;D
bruh hell yeah
Liara's ME1 personality: umm I'm very awkward with talking
ME2: tell me who to kill so I can kill someone else with my mind
Most definitely!
cody bullis not into bald chicks, hentai haired chicks ect.
The constant awkward dialog when romance is mentioned was entertaining, but the sex scene was disappointing.
Bae or bay from Life is Strange?
Or Punk or Nerd also from Life is Strange?
Punk.
AliceoftheBlueRose Fuck the bay, bae all the way
Puuuunk
Bae/Punk always
bae over bay
my little punk is too precious to be sacrificed
*Hardest* Romantic Choices...
*_Hardest_*
Please laugh, I have no friends.
+Jibran Khan nah
+Jibran Khan haha
+Jibran Khan i feel you
the hardest romantic choice in videogames is giving up on actual romantic choices in real life.
No that was easy for me I never had any to begin with.
Now let me go cry in the corner
I'll come cry with you dude
Kaidan or Ashely was never hard but thats cause I didn't do enough research on ME1 and thought Liara was the default. Now since I've gone so far without romancing either I don't view them as lovers. Ashely is my sister from another mister and Kaidan is _"sacrificial lamb #1"_. Tali is my MaleShep's wife for life which made the break up Liara awkward as I never wanted her and don't even like Asari. My FemShep's husband is Wrex.....he just doesn't know it yet.
lol
The Dynast Queen "He just doesn't know yet" HAHAH
Yeeee, fuck Liara
Kaidan and Ashley both sucked, Liara as placeholder...Tali and Wrex all the way, just like op says!
Garrus was soooo cool too
CatherEEEEN or KatherEEEEEEEEN
wtf
Jaelen Sandoval your logo makes it better
Jaelen Sandoval LOL 😂😂 but seriously, wtf does he pronounce their names so awkwardly 🤔
what about qathrine?
king of Halloween quanthrine, the emotionless blob
I couldn't watch the rest of the video after that.
Triss is the hottest redhead ever
True
....in Video Games. Jessica Rabbit is the hottest period.
+Ashramcr Agreed
Faye Reagan isn't far behind if you know what I mean
+MrDjBigZ damn straight but too bad there won't be a bloodrayne 3, Rayne was a complete ripoff of a comic called Durahm Red from 2000AD. The hair face and even clothes are exactly the same, so the game company (Terminal Reality) got sued and can not make anymore Bloodrayne.
Mass effect wasn't hard for me at all. I didn't go with either. One Word: Garrus
THOSE.
HIPS.
THE TRUTH IN THIS COMMENT IS UNREAL
can you go with garrus?
Garrus is love Garrus is life
In ME2 you can
Where is Dragon Age:Origins?Morrigan vs Leliana?
Because it's not a hard choice in the slightest.
@waste of time who did you pick? I prefer Morrigan but only slightly because i really like leliana just prefer Morrigan.
Tristan B
99 percent of the gaming world went after Morrigan on their first playthrough.
i was just curious about your choice but yeah i did too but i have always like the bitchy witty characters like morrigan and yennefer not like vivienne though she annoys me
in that one you can do both in a single playthrough so yeah lol
If u are fem shepard you choose Garrus. Or Thane if u like crying
Kasia Chudy no, you choose lesbian
Thank God you recognised him :D
Oh damn true 😂
Kasia Chudy damn thane just hits different tho
Hardest for me was definitely choosing between Yennefer and Triss.
I went with Triss, if anyone wanted to know.
Same Geralt loved yennefer initially because of a spell so I thought triss was more real
I still can't over the fact that triss basically took advantage gerelt amnesia and slept with him so yennefer all the way
+jack brearley I thought he was already in love with Yen when he made that wish? And besides, Triss basically tricked Geralt into thinking he loved her by using his amnesia to her advantage.
Played Witcher 3 only and still had no knowledge of Geralt having amnesia? Even in the game itself, Geralt mentioned that he had amnesia.
But with that mission with Triss, and that mage boat. I chose the option I love her and then she sails off. Was sad... She came back and I was happy. Wow that sounded dumb but it was a nice scene in the game
In DA:Inquisition there wasn't even choices to be made. Got drunk with The Iron Bull... Went all the way. :D
im pretty into elves so i was A female elf whose heart got broken by the dread wolf :(
iRinnda I didn't romance anyone since all the options sucked.
Darth Vader Fanboy but but Dorian :(
But Dorian .....................
Mass effect: Forget the both of them *chooses Liara* xD
Someone hasn't visited many Dragon Age groups.
It's kind of a tie between Cullen, Solas, Dorian and Cassandra.
Conscious_Whisper Easy for me since I hated everyone.
Sera is pretty popular. She even got her own wedding.
I'm the only who likes Josephine?
@@AgentUltimate7 She and Cassandra were my tied first options as a hetero male.
Solas is trash he can fuck off, I'm never romancing him. Not even a choice. Sure you could say that it's for the angst, but it's honestly not even that angsty it's just annoying and, so is he.
Never forget persona 4 waifu wars
true

Are you excited for the looming Persona Waifu World War 5?
+Little Knight's Reverie the world is gonna end
How about DA:O Alistair vs. Zevran? That was one of the harder romance decisions for me
Emily White nah. Allister all the way
Morrigan :333
Alistair
I've named my service dog after him 😂
Alistair is the worst of the four options
It's zevran Morrigan or leliana
Me too, also dragon age 2 Anders or Fenris.
kaiden and Ashley are number 1# WTF THE MASS EFFECT COMMUNITY HATES BOTH OF THEM!!!
I always pick Paragon choices in Mass Effect, and recently I had completed an entire ME game marathon (in preparation for Andromeda) with the mindset to have Garrus the entire series as my romance. And of course just to refresh myself on lore.
However, picking Paragon in ME1 (to those of you who don't know, Paragon is always the top right choice on the conversation wheel) resulted in me accidentally romancing Kaidan. So I panicked and killed him on Virmire... just to avoid the relationship drama in ME3......
#IMABADPERSON
uhm you dont need to always pick up the top answer to get paragon.. also you dont need every paragon point as you get full after like 3/5 of the game (easier with dlcs)
hahaha i always justify killing kaidan by thinking he was always in pain anyway with his outdated implants. let him die a hero. no more pain. and now i'm just reading the wikia and it says he only has migraines from the L2s. shoot.
*Dragon Age: Origins*: Morrigan, or...ah who am I kidding? There's not even any contest.
Leliana has her perks, but she lacks that mysterious, sassy quality that Morrigan has. Plus I feel like romancing Morrigan is a greater feat to achieve, especially since you typically end up fighting Flemeth to get to that point.
Totaly agree and there's something enticing about banging a spider witch that you don't get in other games
Late to this party, but Leliana for me 100%. Morrigan is a well written character and in any other game (maybe not ME2) she'd be romance option of choice, but that Leliana mojo is just too strong.
Zevran vs Alistair tho.
Zevran was my bae, but Alistair being all cute and shit and Zev arriving quite late to the party had me almost picking Alistair.
very true... however leliana was a nice vanilla romance... that and if you chose leliana, you had the option for an orgy with isabela, whereas morrigan will shut that shit down quick. lol... this is why we romance both until the last possible moment and chose to visit the pearl early on... without morrigan in the party. :P
"Ashley or Kaid-" Liara. Every. Time.
Tali every time, for me.
A Tali is fine also.
Tali was cool, couldn't stand Liara.
Since i play as femshep...If we are talking me1...kaiden. liara has the personality of a door knob.
As in none.
Me2. Thane. Sorry....garrus isnt as good as thane.
Me3: still kaiden.
Now if we are talkin male shep me1 no one. Cuz i kill ashley. Every. Time. Then its Tali or jack and only tali or jack.

tali or rachni queen was the hardest for me
Rachni queen she is so vibrant
How about Morrigan and Leliana from Dragon Age Origins?
***** Yeah I vote Morrigan too but Leliana is pretty nice and good and stuff
Leliana, hands down
Leliana
I choose Morrigan for a few reasons. 1) She has some very seductive qualities about her. 2) Claudia Black makes her sound so fucking attractive. 3) I like making the story in Origins about a man seeking vengeance for the death of his family then ultimately finding love in a witch who laughed at the notion of the concept. Plus the amount of care Morrigan has for you after you do a ton of nice things for her is just the cherry on top. 4) In real life, red-heads and gingers tend to hate me so being with Leliana would have been super-awkward since my character in the game was a version of me.
thank you!!! was waiting for this particular comment.
i dated a Attack helicopter in bo2. does that count?
Xavier Edinger thats the best answer i red q:
Thicc armor and dangerous WEAPONS
Cullen vs Cassandra? How about Solas vs Dorian? That's my dilemma whenever I replay.
Claire Dé Lune I started the game over again just to romance with Dorian.
Claire Dé Lune I stopped halfway through my playthrough just to restart to romance Dorian. That's how amazing of a character he is. AND WHO DOESNT LOVE HIS FUCKING MOUSTACHE AND DAT ASS BITCH SIGN ME THE FUCK UP GOOD SHIT 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Sofi Woot I'm playing Dragon Age for the third time already and that moustache always gets me. But don't you love his voice? I could listen him list the reasons why he thinks the inquisition soldiers' armour is horrendous all day.
I never thought I'd see other people in love with that fabulous moustache, I feel so happy
Cullen, Dorian and The Iron Bull!!! And a big part of me is utterly frustrated that we can't romance KREM!!! I mean....SERIOUSLY!
Solas is IT, man. Solas.
Choosing between Garrus or Thane in ME2 was really hard for me, but I decided to go with Garrus because he is definitely the less emotionally traumatic option.
tw was really dificult to chose between Tali'Zorah nar Rayya or Liara... Going with Liara, i think...
I chose to go with Thane, big mistake after i've played ME3. DAMN!
Lily Estheim I don't know I tried to go with Garrus in one playthrough and it just felt weird not because he's a bad romance per se but because it was never that type of relationship for me me. Whether I played as a male Shepard or female Shepard, Garrus vakarian was my brother from another mother and because of that Romancing and felt weird no disrespect to you of course or anyone else who romance Garrus. From me when it came to the original Mass Effect Trilogy of all the romance options my favorite has to be( don't hate me) Liara t'soni. I just feel like I've all the characters male or female Shepard was closest to Liara even if you didn't want me answering the first game. I don't know it just felt like Shepherd had the strongest connection to her and not just because she was some hot asari chick but a true connection that was Far deeper more I guess you could say spiritual I don't know which made it all the more meaningful if you refrain from Romancing her in the first game until the 3rd at least in my opinion.
Thane because of all the emotions. If you have the Citadel DLC, that's the only time you will ever see Shepard cry. Also romancing Garrus would have been way too weird for me. Same with a male Shepard and romancing Tali. Those two are too much like siblings to me.
thane in me3 and if it was needed citadel dlc was too much man whyy
i would give half of my army and get a worse ending if i could look for a cure for him
what about the most important one? Heavy or Pyro?
#TeamHeavy #Heavyneedsanupdate
tf2 is dead tbh
Patrick Not star Hahahahhahahahahahahahaahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!! You crack me up!
Ginger with a soul it's true I stopped playing after my favorite server was shut down
+Patrick Not star TF2 is dead because you dont play it. Cool.
Ashley and Kaidan? Lmao it's a clear-cut decision, choose Liara.
Mr Smiles Garrus
Late comment but while playing ME1 I did everything I could to get into Liara's pants, while completely ignoring Ashley. Then Liara didn't give two shits about me, and Ashley pretty much forced me to bang her.
Mr Smiles Tali.
You misspelled Tali. :)
GARRUS or Thane. Done.
Really? Kaden and Ashley? I would've though Jack or Miranda would've been the more opposite types for this list considering that's what your whole shtick was for this list.
Mmmmmmm Miranda.....😻
+Chris Smith yeah Miranda all the way
+Tango Whiskey I don't know, Miranda has those buns of steel, but Jack is surprisingly a nice choice (read her files in the Shadow Broker station or just listen to her and how vulnerable she really is) especially when you see her in 3, she hot AF with long hair.
N7 Wolf Agreed. I lean more Jack myself between the two.
+Zandrous i dunno, to me perfect genetics seems like a really great choice. but my second choice would be EDI, followed by jack, though im not a big fan of her hair
Choosing between Jumin or Luciel
Dream Pop man hardest decision T_T
Dream Pop and
Zen, Luciel, Jumin, Yoosung or V. I choose Zen but got Yoosung whose so adorable
Zen, always Zen.
Is this a real debate?
Jumin Han, obviously
I wish Skyrim's marriages were more engaging like the ones in this list...
Lydia
Ashley was a space racist. Thats why Kaiden always lived in my playthroughs.
Don't you mean, Spacist? Ba Dum Tss
Honestly I probably would have left both of them to die if it had been an option
She gets better though.
tbh that annoys me about Ash but with Kaidan he just puts me to sleep with how boring he is
Do you even M.E. lore?
She has her reasons and she slowly changes and opens up. Its called character development
Tali vs. everyone else in ME. I mean come on, the sadness in her voice in the end could tear a hole in the toughest of hearts.
[spoiler]
I still hear it now...
Tali: "I can't stay behind"
Shepard: "Don't argue with me Tali"
Tali: "Don't leave me behind"
Shepard: "I need you to make it out of this alive. Go back to Ranoch. Build yourself a home"
Tali: "I have a home"
*Shepard starts walking away
*Tali holds her arm out to him
Tali: "Come back to me"
Shepard: "Go!"
*Shepard waves them to leave
*Tali lowers her arm in sadness and defeat, then complies
That last part gets me, every time.
yay for Tali her voice was done so well for conveying emotion especially when she gets rambling.
keelah se lai
damn you for making me remember that scene!
How do you get to see this scene? I have romanced Tali, but I do not think I got this scene in my play through.
farakhhanif It's at the end of ME3. It's their goodbye to each other. I think that it's in the free extended cut DLC.
BigFry9591 Okay. Thanks for the response.
@gameranx : IN DA3 , the Solas-Romance shouldn't be underestimated.
OMG, What about the choice between Fenrish and Anders?
Also, i was very heartbroken at the moment when you have your first romance/sex scene with Cassandra, if you tell her that your love to her is not real. Her answer killed me :(
Aleksandr Jekimov
The Fenris / Anders killed me. Because after Fenris does what he does and leaves, Anders welcomes you with open arms. And then in the end ultimately betrays you with the notion of helping him without second thought @_@
Yennefer all the way.
Triss for life
Courtney Bennett Yen for life!
I beat my meat everyday.
abdullah ghannam Those romances don't change the way the Yen or Triss choice turns out
Fuck no
Solas, Dragon Age: Inquisition. If you play Trespasser, it's the best romance option in the game, and without a doubt the most emotional one
Tresspasser is my 2nd favorite DLC of all time. 1st is Citadel DLC in Mass Effect 3. Female Elf and Solas is the best romance in Dragon Age.
Master Sensui Yeah...and I dislike her even more for wrapping all the men around her finger. I am utterly disappointed by Bull! ;) Solas is a complex person, but after all, he is evil. He is like The Elder One or The Lord Seeker. He thinks his actions are righteous. But seriously....he was risking and is willed risking Thedas. That isn't an option, and it never will be, anywhere.
Leeloo you're right I just hope the rumors are true that in the next Dragon Age games he's the main antagonist so I could either talk some sense into him or more than likely kick his ass
MrBig Inthcave I never even would consider Solas a romance option. It was interesting listening to him sometimes but there still always was something very off-putting about it. Like leading an interview with a psychopath.
Grey Warden and Champion of Kirkwall Exactly my feelings about him!
Choosing between Thane or Garrus was the worst
BULLSHIT! ASHLEY AND KAIDEN HAVE NO PERSONALITY. I WOULD HAVE LET THEM BOTH DIE IF THE OPTION EXISTED!(does it?)
They both definitely have personality if you delve into them. once you do the only choice is to kill Ashley (ESPECIALLY if she kills Wrex without permission).
Kaidan really only shows his personality through his romance though, which is unfortunate. But he's awesome, especially in the third game
kill Ashley because she's a racist kaidens only crime is being boring
If I recall correctly, part of what makes her a great dynamic partner is that you can influence her to ease up on the alien races. She'll see things Paragon Shepherd's way after a while, and not hold resentment towards aliens (particularly Turians).
She isn't a "racist", but more of a "I don't like their type" kind of character. Not as outward as XO Pressley, per se (who also sees things Paragon Shepherd's way in the second game).
Are you kidding me? He's a complete fuckboy. The only reason he gets those headaches is because of the fumes from keeping his head so far up his ass all the time. He claims to love you, but completely betrays you calling you a traitor and a coward in the second game, then has the fucking audacity to be upset if you "cheated" in ME2 even though he made it abundantly clear he wanted nothing to do with you and will only even talk to you after you save his pathetic ass AGAIN and he's physically strapped to a hospital bed and can't escape. Even after he recovers there's not one apology, not one word of thanks, he even goes so far as to side with the same people he _knew_ from experience were complete retards for ignoring Shepard in the first game and almost destroying the galaxy rather than listen to you. Shepard should have just ended his pathetic existence on Horizon. At least Ash has a bit of backbone and the source of her conflict is just her competitive nature and wanting to be acknowledged as Shepard's equal. They're both still boring compared to Jack, Miranda, Tali, Garrus, Thane and Liara, but at least they're both more interesting than fucking Jacob.
Agreed that Jacob is the dullest character ever. And I thought Kaiden was bad. Jacob was a snoozefest.
I actually kinda enjoy Thane? But ultimately Liara. Ha ha.
Fallout 4: Romancing Piper or Cait or Curie!!! seriously such a hard choice (Playing as a male protagonist) as Bethesda did a great job revolving quests, campaign, side missions and back stories to the characters as well as the conversations and character builds of the Romance characters. very suprised this did not make it on the list.....Does anyone else agree with this?
Nah, even if I'm with the Institute, i'll always go for Curie
BYRNE all of the above
so the sex pile approach. i like it
Curie's an adorable robot lady with a French accent. It's a pretty easy decision, if you ask me.
piper was my choice in my first playthrough. cait in my 2nd, but after I found out you can get a synth body for curie it was impossible to pass that up.
Fucking Life is Strange?
Y ou're literally choosing the life of one person, or a WHOLE TOWN OF PEOPLE, COME ON
That was the hardest choice that I've done in my life. Life is Strange ruined me. Haha.
***** Not that i'm implying it was hard for me, I had predicted this choice way before episode 5 came out and I shipped Max and Chloe from the beginning so i knew what i was getting into, fuck Arcadia Bay tbh.
Unless you don't go for the lesbian romance than its super easy.
TheSwordsman100 Then you're doing it wrong.
Before i watch this video. Yennefer. All the way.
*yep*
i like you
Yennefer is bae ♥️ Fuck Triss
I chose Triss. Now I haven't read the books and most people who read the books say "How could you choose Triss?" Basically, Yen is an insufferable bitch. In the game. She really is one of the least likeable characters in the game for mine. She is no more decent than Djikstra.
Ben Guillemet That's how she tries to present herself frok the outside. Same for Triss. She also tries to be the opposite of herself. She's not an angel how she seems to be. She's a heartless traitor. Read the books. You won't regret it. In the end, Yennefer and Geralt are the ones truly meant for each other.
Honestly, I found the most difficult romantic choice I've had to make thus far actually being the overall Garrus or Tali decision... Naturally this one is also gender dependent, but perhaps it's because of the part of me that's so fascinated by culture and cultural differences. The choices all offered in this list were mostly human, of some variant or another, but these two offer some insight into the difficulties of getting to know another's customs and culture. I'm absolutely delighted that Catherine was on this list, because... realistically, the romantic decision is a huge part of what the game is about in it's own warped way.
The hardest romance choice was choosing between Abigail and Leah in Stardew valley.
Neither, Penny all the way.
I say abigail.
Shes ok but nobody beats penny.
+Chickenking17 I say abigail because she is the most relatable.
I say Jaz *insert le Lenny face*
WHICH WOMAN TO CHOOSE IN SKYRIM
Similar thing with which man to choose in Skyrim
I would say that Serena was the only actual character in the entirety of skyrim.
^
+TheAsylumCat let's be fair. Skyrim was a massive game and the writers could not spend more than maybe a couple of days on the major characters. Serana was from a DLC where she was deeply tied to the story no matter what side you picked.
After a few PC mods did it become increasingly difficult. Vanilla game is basically "Which odd alien-esque looking character looks the least weirdest and would make the most sense"... so, Mjoll, Aela, Brelyna, or Ysolda (Maybe Muiri if you go bad), BUT get a few character and texture mods, some that renew and smooth out appearances, and a few that simply add dynamic, realistic companions with personalities and stories, it becomes pretty damn hard... Coulda married Elisif and been King! My last playthrough, I ended up with Faralda, of all people. Two reasons, A) the only Vanilla character that wants to marry you who you don't have to do some little fetch quest for (cutting room floor mod, you are TECHNICALLY doing it for Nirya) and B) the mod I have makes her look like this gorgeous famous stand-up comedian I am in LOVE with! interestingly enough, Serana wasn't even a contender. You take away how she is more attractive than the vanilla choices and put them all on equal ground... she is actually just a whiny, ungrateful jerk that constantly step in your way.
In the case of Dragon Age, Im all for Cullen and Iron Bull as a female. But as male, really Cassandra is the most interesting one to me. Thats just what I think.
Ashley or Kaidan in Mass Effect? Fuck both of them. Mistrusting Shepard throughout 2 and most of 3? Ash has the most rude words toward my Shepard and she also isnt very tolerant of Kaidans whining. So basically, she hates both of them. The real question for Mass Effect is Garrus, Tali or Liara? Im gonna say this now...
SHAKARIAN FOREVER.
Didn't want a piece of Sera? :D
I had zero problem choosing my avatar's husband in FE: Awakening. None whatsoever. Chrom and Robin's route is ❤️💯👍🏻
SHOO choosing between Vishnal or Dylas in Rune Factory 4 is the hardest decision to make. An adorable much-angst tsundere or an equally adorable loyal butler??
Trust me, it's even harder to decide when you see everyone's events.... gdi. I'm so sad not many people play RF4, it's one of the best games I've played. It's the _only_ game I've ever played that I've had an actual emotional connection with. And I've played a LOT of games. What game makes you mourn a death that never happened, be elated about a proposal that also isn't real, almost rage quit a hundred times, be surprised another 100 times, and has a high amounts of chanced things that keep you on high alert?? Tell me that kind of game! I'd like to play that.
Aribeth from Neverwinter Nights... you thought you finally found a place in her heart when you get the ring... but desire for revenge was greater then new love... i liked Aribeth story so much...
Hmm, I picked Jaheira in BG 2, as I kinda felt bad she was widowed. Also, she was much nicer after losing Gareth than she was in BG 1. ME1, I don't even recall. Tali I believe. ME 2 was Jack on my last playthrough. ME 3, 1rst playthrough Tali, 2nd I continued the Jack romance, but it let me have a 1 night stand with Wallers (Diane, the reporter). NwN, I forget. NwN 2 the Tiefling, DA:O Morrigan, heh, like every time we camped. Alpha Protocol: The Asian chick.
The first romance I can recall was in a game called Defender of the Crown. An OLD strategy game with some jousting, catapult wall breaking which leads to a couple of sword fights, rescuing the princess, getting married (so you get a ton of land and troops), and the best part, two naked silhouettes in a castle window. I dl'd it for Windows 7/8/10 about 6 months ago. Still kinda fun, but much more difficult as apparently an i5 makes much better use of the AI than a C64 did.
to be honest in dragon age I chose joshaphine over casandera
glad Im not the only one
Same.
After multiple playthroughs my favorite relationships were:
1. Cullen
2. Dorian
3. Josephine
4. Cassandra
5. Iron Bull
6. Sera
Loved the conflicting natures of the Dorian and Cullen romances, but loved Josephine's overall personality and sense of self
EDIT: If Leliana or Morrigan had been romanceable in Inquisition id go with them in a heart beat
Sera was the best for me,I was surprised to learn afterward that I could only romance her 'cause I was playing a woman.I thought she'd swing bot ways xD.
+GEMain I'm with you there. First time I played through the game, I was sad when I found out I couldn't romance Leliana.
I can't be the only one here thinking about Chloe or Warren, LiS anyone?
You aren't alone.
Yep #Pricefield
TBH I'd go with Nathan if that was an option. Now THAT would make for some compelling intrigue.
Pricefield all the way
I chose both. I made Max a whore and I am ashamed.
How is romancing Juhani any more dark sided than romancing Carth? The Jedi don't approve of romance for Jedi regardless of gender or race...
There's also the fact that as a Light-Sided character, you have the option to lead her away from the Dark Side. It's a pretty important part of her arc.
That said, I always go with Carth, myself. %D
Well yeah, that's the only way you can talk her out of fighting you to the death in that grove..?
Exactly. Which is why the whole "romancing Juhani = Dark Side" point seems a bit silly to me.
+ComicallyMacabre You like Carth? Damm a few of you exists in the world People hate Carth so much that They Underrate Kaiden from Mass Effect because they are voiced by the same guy.
ComicallyMacabre Carth has a charm within him that I cannot explain Yes he whines about his past all the time but I forgave him when I learned that he had trust issues He is also my favorite Party companion I used him all the time. I always had him with me. And I'm sure most people doesn't even know Kaiden's personality because They are too busy Fapping at Liara or something.
My all time favorite Dragon Age romance is totally Fenris friendly romance route I love how at first meeting he seems like a brute who literally rips someone’s heart out to someone who has gone through so much shit and just being able to help him through it
How are Cullen and Cassandra the most important romances in DAI? I mean I didn't like the Blackwall romance too much, but Solas, Sera, Josephine, The Iron Bull and Dorian are in my opinion better, but objectively speaking at least equal to those two. As a matter of fact Cullen won't even respond to your romantic attempts if you are Qunari or a dwarf. So if you are playing as either, each of which has interesting effects on other discussions, you're completely locked out of that romantic arc.
Also you can choose Liara in Mass Effect 1, and she is the only option available in both cases and versus the other one, as in ME1 both Ashley & Kaiden do not compete for either male or female Sheppard, so it isn't even a choice between the two. Liara is also the only romance that continues in all three titles, as ME2 doesn't really feature the others, and Tali & Garrus are friends only in ME1 and only become romantic interests in ME2.
Should have been Cullen and Solas.
cait, piper, Preston or strong?
Strong, by far.
+Nicholas Hesser who wouldn't he's so hot
+Nicholas Hesser to be real... Piper... But strong Wooeeee he wants milk? I'll give him milk... ^~^
+Billy Siravo all jokes aside cait Is a 110%
Curie in her synth body.
Dat accent.
I'm not so good with the evil character development so that usually slims down my choices. The fact that you had BG2 in there was epic so thank you for that! Aerie was my go to relationship.
The closest thing to a romantic decision I’ve ever made:
Softcore, or hardcore?
Right hand, or left hand?
Piper the adorable girl next door who wants the truth and want to protect her sister or Cait the Irish drug addict who has a troubled past and just needs someone to look after her
or curie the miss nanny bot who just wants to be the best scientist she can be
Chickenking17 Or Danse the synth who wants to wipe out his own kind
I went with Cait. Pipers voice sounded like a gazelle during labor.
Well, these aren't really choices though. You can sleep with everyone and nobody cares.
Or, since Bethesda finally stopped being hypocritic assholes, all of them?
Not Just The Looks It's
WELL:
LOOKS,
PERSONALITY,
RELATIONSHIP,
Fuck no...its tits
+Veenoms what if your gay or a straight girl?
in that order
THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE
I picked Yennefer, not just because of the books but because Triss' voice acting is so disgustingly American that it's unimmersive.
Simple solution: Play with the original dubbing.
Original dub is in English... if you play it in Polish you'll hear how actors speed up to match lengh of the sentence. It ruins mood so much.
I accidently picked romanitic interactions with Yennifer ... I like Triss more because redheads are best
Ayato Haw can you accidently do that? :D
I thought it is clear in game what you do XD
Asderuki How can I say it ... I didn't want to be rude to her. It sounds stupid but I picked the least rude option ... it didn't even sound that romantic if I remember correctly xD
liara or tali was pretty difficult for me
Not for me. I love Liara, she's a great character but I'm a sucker for the super cute bashful type. The moment I knew I could romance Tali, my entire playthrough of ME2 was skewed in the direction of making that happen. Although, to be fair, Liara is my second choice, possibly tied with Jack.
+Barbowan Liara's not my cup of tea because I felt Bioware was forcing her on players. Tali has always been my #1 girl in Mass Effect, but I did make a character that romanced Liara due to a character in a Mass Effect fanfic I had written but never finished. Also Shameless Self-Promotion, but on my channel I made a Mass Effect 2 music video showcasing the Liara and Tali romances with my characters Henry and Zach Shepard, respectively. It uses the song Without You by Breaking Benjamin, and I plan on releasing a second version eventually showing off the Mass Effect 3 romance sub-plots between the two pairings. If you check it out feel free to leave a comment on whether or not you enjoyed it.
i went with Jack
Liara, nobrainer for me.
I started getting anxious when I got to 2 or 3 and Mass Effect still hadnt popped up...relieved at the end (though...I def would have picked Mass Effect 2... Thane is SMOKIN! Rowr!)
Thane was my Favourite too...his voice did it for me....omg and the story line made me so emotional
Haha yeah... I agree about that voice...purrrrrr.... ;-)
*Cough, cough*... Solas.. *cough*
Stardew Valley actually presented me with the largest conundrum in this area. There are so many well developed and interesting characters to romance, I had a hard time choosing. I loved Abigail's wannabe emo attitude, her love of the rain, her gorgeous purple hair. In the end though, I ended up going for Penny, with her bookish and geeky personality. What clinched it for me was a desire to get Penny out of that home she was living in. I've lived that life, I never want to go back to that, and I felt a major protective instinct to take her away to something much better.
It's funny, because the majority of love triangles here and in videogames in general are 2 girls and a guy, and in books/movies they're 2 guys and a girl, it shows who dominates each market....
It's also funny how the video games get praise while the novels are only though of as a fad.
Nevertheless most love triangles in novels are so damn annoying. Video games don't have that issue, because you can decide quite quickly to not got through this "I can't decide"-bullshit.
Life is Strange
Warren or Chloe?
Or what about the entire city of Arcadia Bay? Not exactly a romance option...but still an incredibly difficult choice
Bae > Bay All day :D
I initially chose bay....feels bad man.
+BlackBoxGamers I'd rather kill myself then play life is strange.
Feel like I'm the only one who likes Warren more than Chloe lol
If you read Witcher 3 books and chose Triss, your a cold hearted son of a bitch and probably got the bad ending. just sayin.
Read books and based on them i chose Triss.
Well, I read the witcher books except sword of disney and ladle of the lake (which I'll be getting to on my sem break). So far, though, I don't necessarily see how Triss did anything wrong. Especially seeing as how she saved Geralt after he got wrecked by Vilgefortz; and, that Yen is kind of an insufferable cunt as far as I've read.
or because i cant stand yennefer and because i am more into cute redheads
Alice Haruno didnt yennefer cheated on Geralt with some mage?
you're* and fuck reading, I do enough of that with subtitles
I think the nice thing about the _SR4_ romances is that each romance scene is illustrative of the relationship between the boss and his / her partner.
By parodying the BioWare penchant for relationships (specifically as in Mass Effect) _SR4_ (perhaps unintentionally) made an argument for polyamory or complex families (such as the Church of All Worlds), in which sex is not exclusive to a couple, but at least allowed between members of the clan.
Given that the Saints would engage in sex work (including prostitution) in _SR2_ and then got really anxious about fetishes and kink in _SR3,_ it left SR4 open to a lot of unintentional messaging.
the starter pokemon. it's not sexual in anyway, but it is a meaningful and important relationship.
You cant romance Cassandra if you're a woman? :\
You can express your interest, but she'll eventually turn you down.
Angelica Vargas What is ":\" supposed to mean?
Angelica Vargas well.. no lol
mbbell23 You can’t :( It almost made me cry when I found out, she’s totally my type!
Icecreamandradness No homo
NOPE. Liara or Garrus as a Femshep is the HARDEST choice ever.
Blackdragon99omfg as Genaro always choose liara
Mass Effect I always choose Liara because she is one of the only characters that doesn't accept Shepard's death she is the only reason your alive and she doesn't get mad for you working with Cerberus because she is the reason your working with Cerberus, imagine how different the galaxy would of been if the Collectors got their hands on Shepard.
Choosing yennefer over triss wasnt hard at all :3
I choosed both
Yup.
@@timrauhut515 it's chose.
Well, It's one sided love with Cloud. Didn't Aerith still loves Zack?
Yeah. Tifa is the one who loves Cloud for Cloud.
Solas from Dragon age INQUISITION
Solas is a racist, ignorant dickhead.
It is not a hard choice
every time i play as Lavellan it is pretty easy to choose that egg-man over everyone else, even sweet cully-wully
But the romance itself is hard and FUCKING HEART-BREAKING SWEET MAKER WHY
Uhh ... If you gave Viconia a Yes-Man, you failed the romance. The whole point of it was to guide her to overcome her education and eventually change alignment.
Also, Jaheira made for a very intriguing romance. Granted, Aunty Jaheira was hard to stomach as a choice for romancing, but if you did, it got pretty interesting.
Now, that being said, the only legit choice was Immoen with the infamous mod anyway, but the others at least made for interesting one-shots.
in my mass effect I always made Ashley stay I just dont like her and I never romanced anyone in ME1 Tali FTW
YES! Thank you! Tali's the only girl in the universe!
SkyCobra Miranda is almost as bad Ashley Ive never romanced her
+SkyCobra Miranda was really manipulative. She became way better off later on in the game, but her attitude sucked in the beginning. She was ten times better than Ashley though.
yeah Ashley was xenophobic bordering on racist, and Miranda was blindly faithful to Cerberus and manipulative both are terrible people but for different reason atleast Miranda redeemed herself in the end
+Luke wood (darkcrimsonwolf) Ashley's redemption comes through death. Sending her to fight and die alongside the salarian troops is quite poetic. She dies protecting people of a race she was once one to hate. But yeah, if she lives that storyline kind of gets nixed.
And also, legit Q, how does Miranda get redemption? Maybe I missed something because that is not what happened in my playthrough. After everything, she still picks a fight with Jack and refuses to acknowledge Cerberus' BS. She's less bitchy to the player character, maybe, but not in any other respect...
Yes fire emblem had to been here because I can't decide who to marry in fates.😞
yeah some tough choices there xP but at least you can pair up multiple characters lol.
marry charlotte
+Amin conquest
+Murdi she was my second choice!
+Tasassinn Interactive true
None of these decisions were hard, I mean Mass Effect 1 > Liara without a doubt.
I am a Tali in any of the games
Glad to see good old BG2 on this list. The different romances there really shape what kind of character you play; whether you're a knight in shining armour, an evil sorceror, a neutral-aligned ranger ... there's something for everyone.
Juhani is a dark side character? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Yeah, you literally cannot romance her as darkside because you have to kill her.
I had to check if I was watching a watchmojo vid at that part lol
Mass Effect... Aiden or Ashley? um.. NO. You mean Liara or Ashley/Aiden.
Peterbuilt Bigdawg kaidan**
for me it should've been Miranda,Jack or Tali in mass effect 2
Tali or Jack for me. Jack is kinda similar to me so I really felt for her and wanted to help but Tali is always there for you, even when her people are threatening to exile her for treason she thinks about you before herself. That being said, I played through the game several times romancing every character, so I guess it's not that bad a dilemma.
If I had to choose between Triss or Yennefer I would choose the mastercrafted ursine armor. That thing is absolutely beautiful
