I really like the romance line. In previous BioWare Games Romances are usually initiated by some dumb pick up line or straight up telling that you are interested. Which never fits with my Inquisitor/Shepard/etc. But this here is perfect. You are just making clear that you care about him and not some inappropriate comment at clearly the wrong time
@@Darkknightrises119 this is such an underrated nitpick but I 100% share it. I love Bioware romances as a whole but the starts always felt a little awkward. I also hope the more personality driven dialogue wheels means we can romance the same characters and have the relationships feel different (since the game and characters take notes if your rook is more sarcastic, diplomatic, etc etc). Kinda like DA2.
Sadly that means no more "well bang ok" jokes dammit (jokes I defintly prefer this style and hope it's the entire romance stuff and not just a singular option that came off well)
I take it you like guys who are a mess and hopeless romantics? To each their own. Some girls also go for the Stockholm/Edward Cullen type. Some like guys like Varric, it's interesting however you put it.
@Xxsorafan they're technically all pan since your character can also have they/them pronouns and can romance them, but they do start romances with other companions on their own too.
@@Just-A-Gamer1524 oh wow now I’m curious who goes after who that’s one thing I wish bg3 did but there is cut content of shadowheart speaking of laezel as her lover
@@Eiliestl honestly I don’t think it’s has much to do with people pleasing but just ensuring players can romance the character they want without having to reset their character. DA2 companions could be romance by either male or female Hawke so there are grounds to this. The BioWare team has been really selling DAV companions and letting everyone romance them probably helps player learn about the characters more
I couldn't decide whether to romance Devrin or Lucanis. After watching this, I've decided that Lucanis will be my first romance. I was immediately drawn to Lucanis and Spite's dynamic. They give me V and Silverhand vibes, and I love those two. I have a feeling Spite will grow on me like Elfroot, just like Johnny did. Silverhand was also an ass at the start and, by the end, became my favorite character.
Thank you! It's amazing to finally see AND hear Lucanis! 😭🙌 He seems like an extremely intriguing character and I can't wait to find out more about his story. Also, thank you for cutting out some parts so we can discover them for ourselves later on. That's very considerate of you! ❤
I'm feeling all the positive feels. That player rook looks 💯 just like me minus a beard. Down to the fade and nudread curls . Thank you Bioware I'm riding with you ! I've never felt so represented and considered in any game before
I had my eyes on him since the first companions trailer. And the more we get to see of him the more I love the guy 😅😊 Spite seems like a bratty gremlin 😂 Is he also voiced by Zach, just with some filter on? I couldn't tell from this snippet 🤔 I'm super excited for the game, can't wait to play.
Ive been playing through the Mass Effect trilogy and Lucanis’s flirt reminds me of Thane and how the flirting is less weird flirting at bad times and more of a genuine care for the other person
See, I thought for SURE I'd be romancing Davrin first because he's just so dreamy. But then the more I saw of Lucanis in these teasers and clips the more obsessed with him I've become so now I'm torn! (And then I'm also obsessed with Neve...and Bellara...and...and...)
For some reason, Lucanis’s demon Spite is reminding me of Kite Man Hell Yeah whenever Golden Glider loses control of her powers and her astral projection form appears and kills anyone on sight.
Pretty strong Anders vibe with this one...the "selling" points of a potential romance with him made me giggle a bit, snicker even, perhaps. 😉 So far, for me, Bellara seems like the most intriguing romance (even if I haven't liked romancing elves particularly in the prior games much) because she seems like a radically new character type (the idea of a veil jumper, not her being an elf). Unrelated, but I do hope that Bioware puts out the standalone character creator, so I can sink a few hundred hours into it prior to the game's release...
Everyone's so attractive, i'm gonna die LOL Also possessed bi-sexual disaster? Omg, It's gonna be Anders all over again. I already have my bias character 😆😆
you're doing such a service. I would love to see the full "I want to talk to Rook" scene, I've seen it chopped up but I haven't found a video of it all together!
BY THE WAY Kala, if you ever read this --- I'm so curious about the preview event itself, what was it like? Was the decor on point? Were the chairs comfy? Did they feed you guys??
i have a sneaking suspicion that illario betrayed lucanis and caused him to get captured......but maybe that's too obvious of a plotline haha. either way excited to see more of the interactions between the cousins, i loved their chapter in tevinter nights!
Wait a minute. Lucanis is a mage to be possessed like this? The lore regarding demonic possessions clearly states that only mages are at risk for this (so templars, tranquil etc). So either Lucanis has magical potential, or this is yet another breach of the original lore.
So we have another companion who is under demonic possession (or maybe apothosus, not a word used I just think there should be s distinction between the likes of Lucanis and someone that is an Abomination.). Why do I get the feeling he is the one to betry us
Thank you for posting. I was curious about this particular companion. I read his story in Tevinter Nights and was intrigued by his background. Now I want to know where and how Spite came to be. Pretty sure that demon wasn't around in Tevinter Nights.
The more videos you upload on this game the more I'm looking forward to playing it, not sure if anyone else feels that way but I am now convinced this could be the Game of the Year for 2024, its really starting to look good
Total disaster who is possessed. Yep, he is my kind of guy. Definitely romancing him because I always romance the guys who are a mess. I absolutely loved him the moment I saw him, and after hearing him speak, I love him even more.
I feel like this Character would be more impactful if they had just brought back Zevran instead. They're similar in so many ways, almost 1 for 1 aside from the racial and mage killing aspects.
Do you have access to all companion intros or just Bellara and Lucanis? Not even necessarily to share, but I'm curious how quickly you get to meet all seven in the game
@@sonnenblumefrau2048No? Zevran, Oghren, Wynne, and Shale are like mid-game, late-game at most and depending on your Hinterlands experience, Sera, Blackwall, and Vivienne, could be hours away or a dozen hours. Even in DA2 Fenris, Anders, and Isabela are at least a quarter through Act 1 which is dependent on side quests and money count so thats gonna take a hot minute.
@@sonnenblumefrau2048Have you seen how long the gameplay reveal trailer was? That was 20 minutes long so which means it could take up to 5 hours to get all our companions
I have a habit of romancing mages and, well, after hearing about a gentleman necromancer I was sold BUT… another possessed longhaired man, uh….. Devs want me to take not one week off, but two 😭
Well, apparently I will be flip flopping between golden haired, golden retriever romances and possessed boyfriends in need of rescue. At least Dragon Age is consistent. 😂
youtube compressed my video, sorry about the quality I have no idea how that happened :(
Rook can't see Lucanis' plus one because, he's not a mage? Or are mage characters unable to see it too ?
@@chaos9059two of the first companions you have can see the demon so maybe it’s a mage thing
Kala: "Lucanis seems like a ticking time-bomb!"
Me, glancing over at Anders and Gale: Just my type
I relate to this on a spiritual level 😂
Anders, Gale, zevran, Solas.... There's definitely a type for those of us that say we can fix them 😂

The pick up line you use on garrus is excruciating
I concur on all your Lucanis thoughts. He's a trainwreck. I'm beelining straight for him lmao
This is such a DA fan comment and I love it
We can fix him? 😂
I take it you like guys who are a mess and hopeless romantics? To each their own. Some girls also go for the Stockholm/Edward Cullen type. Some like guys like Varric, it's interesting however you put it.
As someone who romanced Anders in DA2, I have learned absolutely nothing and I'll be seeing y'all at the dumpster fire. 🙃
Let's just hope he doesn't commit some form of terrorism 🤞🤞
Seeing Lucanis, Illario, Teia, and Viago together makes me so happy ;~; I've been dying to see them all in-game since I read Tevinter Nights
Goddamit, why am I always attracted to the disasters?!
As someone who romanced Anders and Solas, I feel this in my bones
@@KFoxtheGreat solas, fenris, and zevran for me. So, disaster elves are my type and Lucanis is an aberration for me lol.
@@VibesWithPlants Yeeesss I also do love a good Fenris rivalmance
Well damn, another possessed bisexual disaster? BioWare you know us so well!
So do the characters have sexualities in this one?

It’s getting harder each day waiting for this it LOOKS ALL SO GOOD!
I love what we've seen of him the most. And his story in Tevinter Nights was amazing so can't wait to figure out all of his secrets.
Woo heard my name ❤❤❤ I love spite already 😁
With his armor and now knowing its spite I just can't help thinking "eye for an eye"

Just a taste, I really just wanted to hear his voice a little before launch so thanks.

"lucanis seems like a walking ticking time bomb. so yeah, im gonna be romancing him" so real

Why he sound like Zevran
@@MrHarindrakvidya Because they're both Antivan, so they have similar accents.

"He's a walking time bomb. Just my type." hahaha.
As a mage im ready to romance the mage killer :) (Its going to be a completely healthy and non toxic relationship i swear)

I've been wanting to hear his voice for So Long! I'm on love ❤️ 😍
Lucanis seems to be a walking time bomb. Sooooooo I will be romancing him" :)))))))))))))))))))))
Lucanis intrigued me with his entrance, but confirmed to be my romance with "It's complicated." 🤭

It's usually a mage, so him being a rogue is against that.
That voice…M'aiq is that you? 1:45
M’aiq is done talking.
Well damn. Just read Teia and Viago's story in Tevinter Nights. So nice to see them all together with Illario. And yes, plan to romance Lucanis. 😊
I saw a video that shows his head is too big and now i cannot unsee it 😩
Lucanis is NOT a hot mess!!!
He's a spicy disaster LOL

Between Anders/Justice and Cullen/Lyrium ticking time bombs are exactly my type
Calling it Lucanis is going to be the Anders/Morrigan/Solas of the group.

Can't help but notice a lot of his lip syncing felt off. Still really excited to meet him though!
The accent, the danger... but the mullet. So much conflicted.
I am worried he would be another Anders and it looks kind of right? I am an Anders simp so it's perfect. And that voice got me shaking. ❤
Interesting that Lucanis breaks out just as they invoke Razikale and Lusacan.
Yeah, especially on "Lusacan," I think that's some serious foreshadowing. It's not coincidental.
the Gale Dekarios vibes from this man....I'm in danger.
Don't mind me just finding my next Dragon Age cosplay template.
Like Sera said, The pretty ones are always crazy'
That name is straight made up from Sims name generator 🤣🤣🤣
Can't wait
I am a simple gal. I see Lucanis, I click.

Damn its Jzargo!!
Interesting that he popped out when "Lucican" was called......
I wonder if lucanis' VA also voiced Spite
This is my question. If so, he has range!
Lucanis is very interesting. Personally, I've already chosen to romance Neve.
I am so in love with Lucanis. 😅 Do you know if Zach Mendez also voices Spite? I think so, but am uncertain.
Cool :)
Hot wings!!! ❤ Thank you for the video, Kala!
Kala you are so real for saying "I hope it hurts" because there is no way his romance arc will not hurt hahahaha
