Those percentages are skewered and you know it!

More like 2%!

1% of 7 Billion is about 700,000 people. Times that by 50 or 60!

Although obviously the entire world can't, wouldn't or are unable to play DA2.

So let's make it 700 or 7000 people times 50 or 60, and add in DLC content they may buy later and tada.

But my calculations are probably wrong D:


Considering the BioWare 'numbers' come from actual player data and you pulled yours out of your head, I think it's safe to say that your calculations are wrong.

:whistle:

Read all the replies before instant responding. I is like Merrill saying stupid things. But get bad reception like Fenris D:


Who are you talking to? Moi, or someone else? If someone used the quoting brackets, we'd know...

And I did read the responses. I just like trolling your "misprint."

It's like Merrill saying stupid things. :bandit:


But I'm done! Here's a picture of Anders-baby!

I think that 2% of straight homophobic gamers should be exposed to as much gayness as possible, so when the initial horror and outrage fades they realise IT DOESN'T MATTER no digital gay man will reach out of the screen to grab their little straight peepees and turn them into rainbow unicorns.

Seriously, people tend to generalise, hate and hold prejudice against things they dont see EVER. I've had plenty of homophobicy straight friends go to the states for a few months - meet a crowd of awesome gay guys and come home to lecture me about how wrong prejudice is.

My point is, gayness should be in the mdia and in cinema and in games and it shouldnt be treated as anything different or special in order for people to get used to is and get over the shock stuff.

But, but, but... Anders DOES turn people gay. He shoots gay beams at people right out of the screen.

Actually I really love you for that post :wub:

How the hell did Zevran manage to become my favourite character from Origins anyway?

It was the confidence he got from the touch of soft Corinthian leather. 

He's mexican. He should know it's accentuated "COR-do-ba" not "cor-DO-ba".

math's not complicated (well, at the levels we're discussing anyway).  And is there any chance that the 1% of people that wouldn't buy the game because of teh gay is could be made up for by the ones that bought it because they could have a same sex LI in this flooded macho-gamer-focused industry?

So... I've decided to stop lurking and I have to ask: Is it really, really bad if I want to write Bioware a long and detailed letter on how I absolutely NEED Anders to return in later DLC or DA3 or else my life will never again be complete?

(And by return, I mean not killed off within minutes or twisted into an even worse form of Vengeance.)

Indeed. If there IS in fact a neglected demographic it is the homosexual male since generally the big white straight guy who controls the world doesn't mind lesbian stuff (correction - straight chicks making out with other straight chicks - an actual RELATIONSHIP between women is disgusting obviously), because lolz chicks making out is hotz. Are there more gay men out there than men so homophobic they would refuse to buy a game because of gay stuff? I sure hope so! It would make me extremely sad indeed if it was the other way around. 

I believe what Bioware and EA are doing essentially is being smart enough to make a product desireable for as many social groups as possible - which I like to think is not just in order to make lots of money but also because it's about time games moved away from the old-fashioned hegemonic masculinity completely. 

Hello gayness and ruffles :o

So I have a question for all you lovely people who are up right now. I just got done doing the "Enemies among us." quest. Now when you talk to the recruits they say Meredeth is showing her true batty colors and is rumored to be doing some wonky stuff to the recruits and some are never seen again. One being Karen...my question is was she using the blood mages to test them? Or did she simply think they were mages helping her quest to be the ultimate crazy in Kirkwall?

Or did I miss something completely?

Oh I don't think Meredith had anything to do with the mages and their plans. They were using their blood mage **** in the rose to brain-**** new recruits and send them to their secret werehouse where they'd attempt to put a demon inside of them. Other templars just assumed it was Meredith who was doing something to them because it was always new and inexperienced recruits that would go missing and she is a crazy woman.

Omg, sign me up! *pulls out ax*

It could be a petition! Just. Simply. Has. To. Happen!

Maybe the content has to do with him being separated from Justice with Blood Magic, or a simple romance pack, or a role in DA3...OMG BIOWARE I'M ON MY KNEES PLEASE.

*breathes*

I would be absolutely overjoyed to be a part of this, my friends.
