It ends fine as long as you don't side with the faction they're against. If you're gonna side with the Templars, romance Fenris, if you're gonna side with the mages, romance Anders. I just got my Anders love scene......he was invisible for the whole thing so Hawke was making out with air, lol.
Oh I know, but BioWare are the ones that pretty much started doing it with real romances. The Bully thing always seemed like more of a "hey, let's be controversial and piss off parents! That's still cool right?" thing than anything else, and they've never had a real gay option in any of their other games. Even in Gay Tony you played as his straight employee. Skyrim was good for actually getting to play as a gay guy, but the romance system is pretty shallow, and I doubt it ever would have been put in if people weren't so overwhelmingly supportive of BioWare doing it. Not that I'm complaining, Skyrim was a great game and I love being able to have a real gay character instead of trying to avoid the romance and just make him gay in my head, lol. Dragon's Dogma lets you be gay too, lets you romance literally anyone in the game actually. So it's a trend that's spreading, even to Japanese developers. Gives me hope for gay romances in Persona 5. *crosses fingers* lol.
