"Let me get this straight." No, you can only get it bi.

Well, you can credit this phenomenon to either lazy design or an attempt to be edgy. This is one of those unique times when both seem to coincide. I tend to think lazy just because the dialogue changes between male / female are minimal, even more so than Mass Effect 2.

That you manage to make that even more final than the Qunari "No" is terrifying.

Come on, that really seems like a cop out. Maybe they wanted to make it so that anyone could romance any party member, and not have to worry about gender or starting a new playthrough to experience it.

But it just seems so... unlikely. All of the varied and interesting people I picked up on my adventure swing both ways? Does the population of Thedas have a much greater percentage of bisexual citizens than our world?

Or did they include a cut-and-paste modular romance experience for both genders because it was easier?


Bisexual is the best way to be ;) but from a gaming point of view I see what you mean..although it being 'unlikely', I'm not sure. Perhaps everybody is born with an element of bisexuality in that parents and society generally (I STRESS 'generally') bring children/people up to believe being straight is right or 'normal'. But what if you can fall for anybody regardless of sexuality..maybe a certain person has not experienced it yet because they haven't met that one person who grabs their soul and allows them to feel close and fall. I like the idea that all party members are bisexual. Sure it might not be as our world today where it may seem more unlikely but I think there is pro's and cons to this. I am not arguing your statement at all..I'm just saying.. :)

I've never played Dragon Age (I stick to ME), and I just had to check out this thread when I saw its title. I wonder if it (all LIs are bi) 's coming for ME3? Personally, I don't think it's a bad idea, actually I think it's a pretty good one. Unrealistic, maybe, (running into so many bisexuals in the same place), but hey, what's realistic about video games? I like to think while I'm playing my ME that it's deep enough that there's room in it for everybody. Wait a minute, that "deep" sounded pretty dangerous, ha ha ha

If I could have it my way, there would be straight, bisexual, and exclusively gay love interests. But I can promise you if they were to create the characters to have realistic sexual identities, they would be flamed and flamed and flamed by people who are pissed off because they can't romance their favorite character without using a character that is not the same sex as them IRL, etc. It's unfortunate.




I for one would appreciate a fully lesbian or gay character, but what I would appreciate even more would be the radical decision from Bioware to make the next Dragon Age game the first one with NO romances AT ALL, straight or gay. Considering the interests and focus of the fanbase, that would be a ballsy move...

**** that. These games are excellent therapy for being married, ha ha ha

I think they made it very clear Shepard is straight and Liara is NOT female.

Whether they change their minds , well who knows.

FemHawke: I really love you Merril!
Merril: Oh, I don´t know. You are so good to me and you´re the only friend I´ve ever had and all, but...
Hawke: What´s wrong?
Merril: You know, I have never had a boyfriend because noone likes me, but I decided that i want to be straight so I can´t be with you....
Hawke: [smilie]../../../images/forum/emoticons/andy.png[/smilie][smilie]../../../images/forum/emoticons/andy.png[/smilie][smilie]../../../images/forum/emoticons/andy.png[/smilie]

Sounds like someone writing creepy fapfiction.


Unfortunately, the "you´re so good and you´re my only friend" line is straight out of the game and not fan-fictiony at all....
Sucks, I know. but I still like Merril:wub:

Besides, if I was writing a fanfiction with Merril in it, you could be sure she would NOT refuse Hawke. There´d be lots of lesbian sex in it. In fact, it would probably be a script to Lesbian porn:whistle:




By the way, it´s funny how easily heteros get offended. One could think they´d be not so sure of themselves after all:D:P:devil:

The first part of which is a reason why DAO is much better than ME, and the second one is kind of a lie.

I'm not sure who you think is lying, but it's not BobSmith. Casey "McDoucheyNuts" Hudson has stated that the Asari are not female (despite appearances and in-game references and codex enteries all stating the exact opposite). Apparently, this is why gay men aren't allowed to be upset that there's no m/m in ME. There wasn't any f/f either.

Hey, no one is saying you -have- to get with them. They just give you the oppertunity to avoid complaints down the line and inevitable mods that allow you to do such anyway.

Yea, I don´t meant that Bob lies, I meant Mr Hudson obviously.

Unfortunately, these mods suck a bit. I used one to romance Morrigan as female and then my Warden had to get her pregnant personally, in spite of being a woman.

Well, I played a mage so I just went with :wizard:A WIZARD DID IT:wizard: and everything was fine again :innocent:

They aren't Bi at all.

If you're a male hawk, they are gay.
If you're a female hawk, they are a lesbian.

Since you can't have both a male & female hawk at the same time, they are never Bi.

For me I'd personally prefer it if the game would adjust to what you prefer in as much as its feasible; as in the cost of implementation shouldn't overshadow the benefits; having lots of romances available for example doesn't cheapen the game if done right; as in not every character will express themselves as romanceable characters, but you have to work for it before they cave in. Thus you wouldn't notice that character X is bi-sexual unless you played both a female and a male character, and in both instances tried to romance the same character.

& It's not about what's real, or you can't look at the love in DA2 and say its any less real than the combat, or almost anything else in the game. esp. if you view them not as bi-sexual, but customised to fit your character.


Rubbish.

The game world should adjust to the player? No. The player should adjust to the game world. Thedas (or any setting for that matter) should be populated with complete characters with developed personalities. Not some lumps of clay to mold into whatever fetish one might have.


True.

As far as I know, Aveline's sexual orientation is unknown. She might be bi.

It's America, I'm sure that if they hadn't thrown in some bisexuality or made it possible for two men to romance, they would have had a lawsuit for discrimination. It just worried me how easy it was, I wasn't even concentrating that badly and already in the first run through I'd already paid for an Evlish man-wh*re, had sex with Anders and confessed to Fenris. It was just too much and was one of the many ponits which ruined the game.

I don't think so. I think Anders has said in Awakening he like women.

And Isabella probs has had sex with men even if Your Hawke was a female.


Edit: Just remembered Isabella was open to threesome in DA. So. Bi no matter what ur Hawke is.

I just think that every companion being a bisexual is completely absurd..why cant ther be a few bi ones or gay ones..and an equal amount of straight ones. Do you honestly think 100% of the people in a foreign world are all the same in their sexual preference? Maybe i dont want a chick that rolls both ways.

Oh, then you guys are no doubt happily adapting to Thedas, where so many of your companions are bisexual. :lol:  And I recall Lotion adapting enthusiastically to the new elven look, despite his fetish for the elves of Record of Lodoss War.  I'm so happy you guys are happy.
