I want the option to turn off uncomfortable silences between the PC and the squad during exploration because they really make me uncomfortable.

I want a male with facial hair toggle.

Men with beards make me feel weird. I don't want them in my game.

I know you guys all have a crush on Varric...admit it...COME ON...hairy studly little man, never has to get on his knees...oh, and I thing most women ARE Bi-sexual...if not, they are a rarity, while the majority of men who are 'curious' would rather hide. But the ladies in places like Facebook and Myspace proudly display it like a badge. Even young girls under 20.
I still say we need some Chinese elves, Black darkspawn (no pun intended) and Mexican Vicounts!!!

When you die in real life, there is not a load last saved game. Why should you have one in a game?

Hardly comparable and those games owe me countless quarters.

Perfectly comparable. Do you get worried about films or novels that deal with homosexuality? I´m sure you avoid them and move on. Same with this.

I am a heterosexual male and I am not disturbed at all to see homosexuality and bisexuality in Bioware´s games. Hell, I wouldn´t be disturbed even if they did a game exploring masochism, drug addiction, sadism and many other grotesque topics.

And simply put...it is poor character structure to make everyone able to be romanced by either gender.

Some characters should be straight, some gay and some bi because through out history to the current that's been how people have been and are.

Some characters should flat out not be able to be romanced, period. Due to gender conflicts/instincts or what not.

it makes the characters plausibly believable, a staple in fantasy works.

I'm just concerned that since Bioware has now set a precedent by including gay/bi/lez romanceable characters in their games, it means all of their future games will cater in some way to the gay community at the expense of character development and storyline.
What they did with Anders is the perfect example of this..  Lady lover in Awakenings to man lover in Dragon Age 2..

 I'm Gay and just want my prefrence to be included
I have no problem with heterosexuals, I just hate it when they suggest a Turn off gay option.  They may as well be saying " I don't approve of you nor your unatural lifestyle, thats why bioware must make an option for me to ignore people like you."

 It offends me.

I'm sorry that offends you, but I don't buy video games in order to validate anyone's sexual behavior (even my own).  I have no problem with your playing the game you like, but I'm not inclined to spend money on entertainment highlighting homosexuality.  I don't question your dignity as a human being, and I would stand between you and someone attacking you because or your sexuality.  (As a matter of fact, I've actually done this.)  I will, however, always have a certain distaste for some of the things you are inclined to do.  Odds are good I do some things you'd rather not have to look at, either.

In any case, I come by my inclinations just as honestly as you do.  If a company wants me to buy its RPG's it should probably look into a way to firewall the sexual preferences so I'm more likely to enjoy the immersive storytelling.  No one is under any obligation to do so, of course, and I'm not obligated to buy and play their games.

There was a time when this debate was about gay players having choices that allowed them to experience the game as they wished.  Now it's apparently about straight players learning not to play the game as they wish

Apparently despite living in a rather left-leaning state I am in some 1950s timewarp because most guys and girls I know are straight and not bisexual. But where are the low gas prices, cool hats, and nuclear attack drills?

I want the option to turn off the inclusion of small, furry animals. They make me uncomfortable.

And large furry animals too, while we're at it.

Stupid bears.

We don't deserve an option to disable such content? In that case you don't deserve gay LIs. You insist on having a choice of gay LIs yet straight players don't deserve a choice to opt out of such content?

They wasted all of that effort to add gay LIs, yet they shouldn't waste the effort for a "no" option. Face it, you're insisting Bioware flash this in everybody's face.

You do have a choice to opt out.

It is called saying no.

Otherwise known as boning the chick instead.

I've always wondered about this.  As a straight female, I've had to say no more than once to a guy I wasn't interested in.  Do guys just never learn to say no?  It's not hard  especially in a video game.  I turned down all of the NPC romances at one time or another .  As you suggest, maybe more guys or sometimes women, need to practice this.  

I really have never understood the problem people have with this.  I like the characters with sexual differences.  Makes the world a bit more real for me, whether or not I go for the romance.  I would much rather have had a group of different sexual orientation NPC romances instead of the one fits all variety. <_<

Actually - put people in the right circumstance- and most are bisexual. 

Prove it, or provide evidence, other wise just shut up about this.  I'm betting that you have no idea when it comes to how human sexuality works..

No,  you don't "deserve" anything, and why you feel entitled to such is - bemusing.

Gays, lesbians, bisexuals - and (gasp) women play games - not just het male gamers.

Get used to the idea of devs being more inclusive. Especially with RPGS which are meant to mimic real life. You want a het male testosterone fest?

Stick with Gears of War.

Problem solved.

oh and your just plain ****ing ignorant. I can understand your pro gay, but attacking a het male simply for expressing his views is a lot like what you are against.

"attacking" a male gamer? Surely you guys have thicker skin than this comment would suggest?

Or - maybe not.  ::smile::

No they were alluded to being lovers. It's fandom and fanfiction that some people call them cousins, sisters, and other things. *shrugs* A good reference to the allusion is when Fang and Lightning have their cutscene after first meeting in Palumpolum in the game. Fang states "I would tear down the sky for her" when she is speaking to Lightning about Vanille. Now I don't know about you, but I don't know of any cousin that would tear down the sky for another cousin or risk their life or go as far as Fang has in the game for Vanille. A lover yes, cousins or sisters... not really. Yes blood is thicker than water and familial ties do create strong bonds but not as strong as how Fang feels for Vanille in the game.

This should totally be in. 

I should also have a toggle for the game to make the aggressive options invisible. I don't like being mean.
