You can’t tell me you don’t want to climb that mighty tower of Qunari muscle.
Taash’s romance questline in Dragon Age: The Veilguard is truly unique. As you get to know the towering dragon hunter, you also follow them on a journey in exploring their identity. I don’t think there’s another character in all of RPGs that decides to change their gender expression during your relationship, let alone in previous Dragon Age games.
I can’t say that it’s always the most masterfully written storyline—much of Taash’s self-reflection is quite awkwardly inserted into conversations, and the use of very modern, real-world terms and ideas can feel jarring in a fantasy world, even if the underlying struggle doesn’t feel out of place in Thedas. But it’s certainly a bold choice to make it such a major part of the romance and the wider story, and it feels like a significant step to see trans inclusion so front and centre in a major game release.
Plus, you also get to just enjoy smooching with a character that looks like they could lift you over their head with zero effort—and Taash’s direct and dominant approach to romance definitely has its charms, especially if you’re the kind of person that often wishes a fictional character would step on them.
