Dragon Age: The Veilguard is an upcoming BioWare RPG that promises to be the team’s most romantic game yet. The game will feature a Relationship Level system where every companion’s relationship with the main character, Rook, is influenced by the choices you make throughout the game. By ranking up a companion’s Relationship Level, you unlock skill points to spend on that specific companion, allowing for customization of their abilities.
While Rook’s skill tree is extensive, companion skill trees offer five abilities, of which only three can be taken into combat. This requires strategic decision-making to ensure synergy with your current build. Additionally, companion issues, problems, and personal quests will impact Relationship Levels and how companions interact with Rook.
Romance is a significant aspect of relationships in Dragon Age: The Veilguard, with some romances becoming quite spicy. Each romance has a unique flavor, with some characters being straightforward while others are more awkward due to lack of experience. Romances unfold differently for each character, adding depth to their personalities.
A notable aspect of the game is that every companion is pansexual, meaning they are attracted to individuals regardless of gender. This differs from the “playersexual” approach in other games, where NPCs adjust their preferences based on the player’s character. In Veilguard, companions may form romances with each other, potentially impacting Rook’s romantic options.
During early gameplay, romantic interactions were observed in dialogue choices, allowing Rook to flirt and potentially initiate romantic relationships with companions. However, not all flirtatious efforts are reciprocated, and players can choose from different dialogue flavors such as friendly, snarky, or direct to shape relationships.
As Dragon Age: The Veilguard is set to release in the fall, more details about the romance and relationship systems will be unveiled.
