Dragon Age: Achievements

Yep, you will be boning your way to another 40 points or 4 trophies. Now if only they would tell us what metal type those trophies where. I'm guessing Bronze, but it would be awesome if they were ranked based on the look of the person you are experiencing the thrill of romance with. Setting a new form of Trophy Fuck.

All joking aside, while it is funny to have these types of awards in there, I think it is just open grounds for more bull shit like what happened with Mass Effect. Except this time you are rewarded for engaging in suggestive themes in the game. I have no issues with it, it's the backlash that we as gamers are going to have to endure because of some virtual nookie taking place. Even if it isn't seen.

I commend BioWare for having no issue with placing these types of themes and actions in their games. Sometimes they are needed to enhance the story. (No joke) I just hope that they are ready to be on the ball again like last time with the alien side boobage. I can see the prudes of the US going to town on this and trying to push for an AO release.

In any instance, here are the 46 of 50 announced Achievements that total 1000 GamerPoints:
