Yeah, I think my own view on it is at least partially attributable to my method of play - I effing love using walkthroughs for games and when I played DA:O I was always referring to the quest pages on the wiki for the best way to get through them. It was not just the individual quests either - I looked ahead into plot issues and saw the long-term things and decided quite a way ahead which I liked best plotwise, and setting up Alistair with Anora has the best result, epilogue-wise.

I don't know if I would have went the route of keeping the relationship if I was viewing Elenaria as being my RP character for real. I suppose I don't view the mistress idea all that badly due to a prosaic view of royalty and mistresses.

Your 'first time through', or on subsequent playthroughs? My first time through I don't want to be spoiled for anything, so I wouldn't be looking at walkthroughs. After that though, sure!

But then again not everyone is as against spoilers as I am.

I don't see it as a 'bad' option, it just isn't one I would choose for the majority of my characters. I can see why someone would pick it!

That was definitely my first time through. I am pretty spoiler-proof, and don't mind knowing in advance the basic plot of something. It can mitigate the effects of a shock in a plot, knowing it's coming.

The only time I tried to avoid spoilers was when the book of HBP came out, but I trouble getting into reading it and the online spoiler period wore out and I gave up. I stopped worrying about being spoiled after that.

My tendency to walkthroughs dates back to Baldur's Gate, where having a guide book actually got me to sit and play BG2, partly because it informed me of the romances.
