QuevvenXiltyn Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Depends on the character I'm playing. Most are already in committed relationships, so pass on all of them. As for Vaylin... You know there is a part of me that wants a scene where you have to face off with her and Arcann. You know, they have you surrounded, and you have to choose to face the one you think the bigger threat. I'd pick Vaylin. She actually scares me more than Arcann.

SerraShar Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 It would be funny if WE got to fight and beat her in a later chapter and she became infatuated with us because of it. However, More then likely she'd want to kill us even more for it. I played the expansion 3 times , and 3 times she say 'You have a crush on me!' ....Wth was that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yria Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 (edited) Senya. Easily my favorite of all the new companions (sorry, Theron). She totally won me over when she started to sing in chapter 7 And I just love how hesitant she is about killing her own children. She realises they are a major threat, she knows they need to be eventually taken care of, but she can't bring herself to hurt Vaylin all the same. That's what I call a normal mother behaviour (sorry again, Samara). Now I will be totally fine with it if she finds it in herself to kill Arcann or Vaylin eventually, it's just important to me that she hesitated. Lana was all right in SoR, but now she is becoming annoyingly inconsistent. She keeps acting all sith-like and condemns all your merciful decisions if you make them, but try playing a slightly more evil character... and she will be lecturing you agaisnt those very things she would advise as practical had you been lightsided. And no, Lana, you aren't the one to talk about trust after what you did to Theron on Rishi and after how you recruited Senya behind Koth's back. I mean, I understand your practical reasoning behind those decisions, but trust you? Nope. And please don't get offended that I suspected you might want to experiment on me if you learn about Valky in my head - after all, that's exatly what you wanted to do to Master Surro on Ziost. Vaylin is just Vaylin. She makes DS Jaesa look sane. I realise some might find that attractive, but not me.

Chazcon Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Vaylin. She is strong and sexy. Yes, evil and uncaring, but you can't have it all in one woman. Senya - I like her, but waging war on your own younglings = awkward. Lana = Boring as hell. And I thought Elara Dorne was bad. Best quote ever: Aric Jorgan, referring to Elara Dorne: 'I've had drill instructors more relaxed than that woman." At least Dorne has some fire. Lana makes me not even care what she has under the hood. Glad Bioware put her through rehab though, she needed some help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She does have the same Vibe..but I have more respect and love for Samara because while I know its mustve tore her apart to kill morinth..as she said..she owed the victims much more , regardless of the pain she has to endure . Lets hope she sing..and that Koth doesn't interrupt ..again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yria Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 (edited) But Samara killed Morinth . So in a way , Samara code is far stronger then Senya . Well, my point was, I don't like Samara exactly for her code being that strong that she can go kill her own children. Yes, I realise that she mourned Morinth in her own way, and that she prefered suicide over killing her other daughter in ME3, but Senya still looks more human, more real to me.

_NovaBlast_ Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 (edited) Sadly, and with no disrespect to the voice actor, who turns in a very good job on Lana; it's unsurprising that many who are that way inclined lock themselves on to her, the point about the writing is spot-on... she's Mary-Sith. The Sith who isn't evil, is nice and kind and decent but still emotion-fuelled and fiery and warrior-woman-hot while also being spymaster-hot ... oh, and with Defrosting Ice Queen tossed in for good measure; essentially, she's a rather transparent collage of all the tropes deemed 'hot' in a 'strong female character' archetype, whether those tropes are consistent or not. If that turns out to be a trap, and she's the way she is deliberately to *be* in-universe irresistable bait, or as a disguise, then fine... but if that really is all there is to her character, then I'm afraid she's essentially a piece of cardboard, only there to be attractive to other people. I disagree with you I like Lana as character becase she doesn't act like a typical Sith in a lot of ways.. I stated in my previous response below I actually made a trooper specifically to romance her prior to Kotfe came out when she was not even a official companion. On e of my troopers .. have chose Lana even before KOFE came out 2 (one is with Elara) if a pub romance for Vailyn came out though .... I have to say i would use my free 60 for that .....just for the sheer experience of it her wild personalty with that sexy body and that voice ....maybe worth the risk..... the fact that she is crazy would mean she would permanently dominate you though .. you probably end up to be more of a possession/ plaything/ pet than a partner....but no one would dare threaten or harass you....ever..... I'm with Jaxo I would have traded Jaxo for Tano or Aric in a heart beat. I was sad when she wasn't made a official companion Edited November 4, 2015 by _NovaBlast_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommanderVintres Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 (edited) None. *le sigh* Give me more male companions. It's frustrating how Bioware wants to please male players by giving them almost a full crew of female companions for romance purposes.

GeneralRhodes Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Lana, because I like her name when you change the letters around. Uh now that you mention it the same kind of applies to both names if you reverse them I'm kind of wondering if this is a developer joke. I mean thats bizarre if its a coincidence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's frustrating how Bioware wants to please male players by giving them almost a full crew of female companions for romance purposes. *le sigh* It is frustrating how no one is ever happy. Through the first 8 chapters, here is the cast (main) lineup Arcaan -- Non - Playable first 8 Chapters; Male New Valkorian -- Non - Playable first 8 Chapters; Male New Koth -- Playable first 8 Chapters; Male New ROMANCEABLE both sexes Theron -- Non - Playable first 8 Chapters; Male Not New ROMANCEABLE both sexes Vaylin -- Non - Playable first 8 Chapters; Female New Senya -- Non - Playable first 8 Chapters; Female New Lana -- Playable first 8 Chapters; Female Not New ROMANCEABLE both sexes *le sigh* something out of nothing I suppose. Those whom are really getting shafted is those looking for non sentient romance, as both HK and Scorpio are non romanceable. If anybody should have Bioware neglect issues it is that crowd.

hadoken Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Senya would be the most stable choice. Lana can be reliable and good, but also still very Sith at times (instant execution for her #2 on Ziost, for example - no questions asked). Vaylin is just ******* crazy, far as I can tell. That isn't particularly fun or safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiguelGx Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 I have a weakness for *****es so Vailyn would be on top, the only problem is that Lana took a lot of risk trying to rescue me, only for that I would choose Lana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faardor Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Lana. Senya is too old and I certainly dont have mommy issues Vailyn is too much of a nutjob I could list some positive reasons for Lana but do I really have to? Process of elimination already invalidated the other potentials. Altough honestly if I had to pick any strong woman from ANY female companions it would be Akaavi, Elara is definitely a very close second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshlaBoga Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 I really find the "Senya is too old" to be strange. Plenty of us are the age as her (50-55), is everyone assuming she's like 80 or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
