Summary

  • Dragon Age: The Veilguard introduces a romanceable character in his 50s, a huge step up from the typically younger options we see in games.
  • Fans are ecstatic to see BioWare branching out, especially since 'older' characters like the ancient Solas still look young.
  • But while Emmrich Volkarin is a major step forward, there's still a noticable lack of older women in our party.

Older romances are pretty rare in games outside of technicalities. Sure, Solas is ancient and Astarion is a centuries-old vampire, but they look young. 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Dragon Age: The Veilguard companion Emmrich Volkarin, on the other hand?

This grey, wrinkly, slice of Mourn Watch pie is in his 50s. And even though he's mastered the art of r♍aising the dead, he looks his age. Fans couldn't be happier.

"There's always been sort of an MO around 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Dragon Age romances. Pretty/handsome, and usually quite young," a popular Reddit post reads. "Call me a DILF hu🅺nter, but it's nice to see a wide variety of ages with the new romanceable cast, and it's great to see that they're unafraid to go higher."

As many point out, Dragon Age has always been ahead of the curve, with a wealth of companions in their 30s to 40s being romanceable (168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Iron Bull is the best, argue with a wall). But to see BiಞoWare take that even further with someone in their 50s to 60s is incredible.

However, while the self🤪-proclaimed DILF hunters are having the time of their life, there's a Flemeth-shaped elephant (or dragon, I guess) in the ⭕room.

There's Still A Lack Of Romanceable Older Women

"Me, having a perfectly nice day when I realise that Neve and Harding are likely to be the 2nd and 3rd oldest romanceable female companions ever across four games, and they're not even 40," the top commen😼t reads.

Being able to romance older party members in rare enough in games, but older women especially so. And while The Veilguard is giving us Volkarin on a silver platter, all of the women are still clearly yo🌺ung.

Morrigan might be a MILF depending on your world state... oh wait.

"I wish we had some older female romance options too (still salty we can't romance Jaheira in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Baldur's Gate 3). Oldest one we've had was Cassandra, I guess, and she was mid-to-late🐲 30s only," ♕one commenter said.

Maybe one day we'll get to romance a Flemeth baddy, but The Veilguard is not that day. But hey, Emmrich ﷽Volkarin is at least one step𒁏 forward.
