I'd say this topic could be resolved in a few sentences...

If romance plots within the game bother you... don't play them.
If romance plots within the game interest you... enjoy them.
If romance threads bother you... don't read them.
If romance threads interest you... enjoy them.

People are different. Opinions are different. BioWare is big enough to accommodate both camps in this issue, so extended posts dictating the value of one side or the other is futile. The game will be awesome, and that's the point.


Truer words have never been written in this network. I couldn't agree more.  Too many people in this forum have argument on titbids like this and i beleive these argument are silly and childish.

I think there is a quote that fits right into this:
"if one person is of one opinion and a million of a contradictory opinion. They are no more justified to silence him as he is to do so to them."


I love this quote and John Stuart Mill as a philosopher. The full quote deserves to be posted...

"If all mankind minus one were of one
opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would
be no more justified in silencing that one person than he, if he had
the power, would be justified in silencing mankind."     

Awesome reference man... Just epic...

Ambiguous rubbish, I can do it too. The sun grows dark, but lo. Here comes the dawn.

Ambiguous? :huh:  Hardly....

Your ignorance of great philosophy doesn't discount the value it could contribute to our society if it were applied to more than an idealistic world view. 

Judging by your statement however, it leaves me feeling disheartened... :unsure:


You're missing the refference.
