I really dont see why this is that important in the first place. I am not much of a fan of the idea, of video games turning into the next porn industry. Whats the most important part of the game? The amount of sex you can have or the actually story telling and amount of fun you have until boredom?


Who said anything about porn? You've got a smutty mind, dude.


This. I'd be absolutely fine with no sex (scenes) at all. Tasteful, realistic romances are what we need: building a relationship and the character development that comes from it, is what matters.

A Warden of mine killed himself with the Archdemon because Morrigan ran away, and the only reason why another Warden didn't was Leliana.

there is a bit more to it than "not liking" to it, you are a minority against the majority of normal people, there is no necessity to fulfill your sexual fantasies because time spent on creating deeper normal healthy relationships is for sure gathering more interested buyers and thus the developer makes more cash aswell

from a purely production perspective adding options for abnormal minority just doesn't pay them as much as focusing on heterosexual relationships in the game, the only cause they even include lesbian option now and then is because that is also much popular with males and thus adding that option is of a reasonably low risk level



Homosexuality isn´t "abnormal".


Besides, why have "normal" (tolerant people read: straight) people a right to have a game fulfill their sexual fantasies, but homosexuals don´t?

You really should rethink your attitude, because your current one is as bigoted as one can be.

i do not think that many straight people have a problem with homosexuality in games (at least if its handled different from zevran *shrugs*). and the most who do have one because of a guy with a strange hat so id say why not. besides: of course it is content and of course it takes time and resources but if we want all games only in a way that fits the market best, well propably should all start playin MW2 or something.

So homosexuals only want to fulfill their fantasies in game? No emotional connection with the NPC? That explains a lot. Anyway I put my vote in "Abolish all romances" because it's dreadfully obvious that the impasse has been reached. In fact I'm suprised this thread has not been locked already.

it is a well known fact, supportet by some guy named "Adolf Hitler", who was once a very important political leader. and -honestly- we all trust political leaders. i mean, you dont get a political post by being untrustworthy or even being a bad human, right?

Even if a supposed 10 percent of their consumer base was LGBT (which may be more or less given the type of people attracted to RPG's) that's pretty significant and more than enough business justification to devote resources to this option. Compared to content the entire game, how much resources are really invested in all of the romances combined anyway? For a few lines and scenes here and there, they really made a big difference in the gameplay though.

I stopped reading here.

Anyway, I won't discuss this further. Let us not derail the thread with pointless discussions.

I stopped paying attention after "normal PEOPLE". Am I really the only one who HATES those two words, especially when used together?

Joriandrake, maybe you could EXPLAIN to me what EXACTLY a "normal" person IS. Maybe that would give me the greater context I need to understand the rest of your comment. One thing is pretty clear - you must be a christian... correct me if I'm wrong.

So, my first question: is a christian normal? Keep in mind that there are 2.3 billion christians world wide and 6.8 billion human beings. Not to mention that christianity is also divided into orthodoxy, catholicism and protestant (three main groups) each having their own dates and rules. So, really, first tell me to which of those you adhere to and then tell me if you're normal.

You can also respond in a PM if you think it's going off-topic (if it wasn't to begin with).

I wouldnt mind having a few gay party members in Dragon age 2. Long as it was done tastefully and not the full blown "were here were queer get used to it!!" sterotypes...

I think homosexuality is "normal" and a kinder defense to overpopulation than God's former ways of curing his problems, like flooding them or giving them plagues =)

I meant normal as in having a normal relationship and planning to have a family with children



this is not about faith in God or evolution but about the basic reality of the needs and existence of humanity

1. I listed multiple option because I knew most of you are atheists

2. aye, but those if don't have still a normal sexual life will have no children and thus their bloodline dies out

well youve got a point there... and there propably are a few more intolerant guys out here then you so i propably misjudged you a little indeed.  but still, you propably should sometimes be carefull what youre saying, at least in a thread like this.... i actually can grab the hostility here, take it in a bottle and keep it for the day whenever i meet my worst enemy (whoever that is). giving strange comments or only appearing intolerant can be deadly (metaphoric)....

Wow, normal is about having children? Go tell that to Male/Female couples who choose not to or for some reason CANNOT have children. I'm glad only your narrow view of what a relationship is meant to be for is valid.



The world is becoming overpopulated and we are destroying the environment and consuming all available resources. "Normal" relationships have more than been successful in achieving the "existence of humanity." NOt every person who exists on earth has to go bare children to be "normal" or useful.

What is a normal relationship then? Must someone have children? Is this a rule?

Then you agree that homosexuality is actually good for the preservation of our civilization/humanity. If this planet gets any more over-populated than it already is, it might burst!

As a matter of fact, the less children the better. Humanity is growing too fast.
