I bet that those 20 seconds it took for you to repell Anders really ruined the game for you ~


Probably took longer to come up with that terrible pun than that.


must be since I don't even see my own pun.

but then I'm really terrible at posting ~


Where is the word play?

Ah, good, I was wondering what I did, and yes - that is a terrible pun.

It's never been "shoved in my face". Some of you need to choose your dialogue more carefully. My chars have never been hit on by ANYONE that I didn't want. 

Never

I loved the article, my pal Chrysalde forwarded it to me just minutes ago. Yahtzee hits the nail on the head. It's a CHARACTER. It isn't YOU. If you romance Character X, Y or Z in the game, no one is going to report you to the Official Board of Homosectional Registration. Kids just need to grow up and quit being stupid/closeminded.

Well Isabela and Anders does flirt a little bit when the men and women, and I believe Fenris also flirts a bit with women at least.

5 - 20 seconds each maybe ~ its truly horrible, HORRIBLE! I say.

I wish we had a "play dumb/act like Merrill" option with Isabella.

"Sorry, what's rigging? I'm not very good at sailing." "..."

Isn't wanting to not see homosexuality in the game your problem, not the game's problem?


I like to look at it more as money that Bioware/EA would like to have that they aren't getting. 

Now, if Bioware is actually intent on making a cultural statement with their gay/bi/hawksexual characters, they are completely within their rights to do so.  I'd go so far as to say they should do so if they're truly passionate about making that sort of statement.  But some of us have no interest in playing Dragon Age: Torch Song Trilogy and will direct our disposable income elsewhere.

So you didn't get DA2 because you heard it has teh gay? Are you even aware that the male homosexual who does hit on you does so once, and you can reject him and move on? It's not like he slaps you in the face with his wang.

If you're going to ignore DA2, do it because of recycled maps and a city that doesn't change through ten years, not because one guy hits on you in one dialog.

who has an issue with the Anders gay come on has probably got some
homophobia and you know what they say about that...


I like how not appreciating that Bioware converted Anders makes you homophobic.

I like how not supporting a behavior that stems from a defect with no evolutionary benefit, and not believing that that behavior should be encouraged, makes you insecure or immature.

I am getting really tired of this one sided discussion (due to the minority having immunity) that saturates these forums.

Do prove it being a defect.

The purpose of all life is to live, reproduce, and die.

Now unless you are saying that sexuality is purely choice and not genetically / biologically influenced then something isn't wired properly.

Glad you enjoyed it, I'm always happy to provide a nice sarcastic remark!

Btw, you do realize that what I said IS actually a documented scientific fact, right? Look it up if you're not too repelled by any search engine noticing you searched for homosexuality.

I suggest you direct a complaint at a moderator then, as for majority vs minority, I'm not gay and neither are 99% of the ones you consider the minority here which seem to be in the majority going by this and other topics.

No, those are the outcomes of life. Reproducing is optional.

If you disagree with it being a choice, why even bring up "encouraging" it?

Actually, just for a point, reproduction is the genetic imperative of life. The *act* is a choice though, yes.


Anyways, I really don't see the point of all this fuss.

So Anders flirts with your character for a few seconds.. big whoop. You can flat out tell Anders that it makes you uncomfortable, and do you guys know what he does? He doesn't flirt with you anymore.

Problem solved. So why is there thread after thread after thread?

I didn't mean to infer that you were gay, I had actually thought I threw in that the last part wasn't directed at you.

What did you say that was scientific fact?

To regurgitate what the person above me said, reproduction is a categorical imperative, an instinct that to my knowledge is supposed to be hardwired into all intelligent life.

I meant that in the same way that I mean when I say that I don't think those who are bi-polar-1 should be encouraged to act violently.

Lol... People keep throwing **** at me and complaining "Yet another one of these threads!"...

Screw you. I didn't start any discussion, I just posted a freaking link to a Dragon Age 2 related article. I didn't even say Yay or Nay to anything.  <_<

The problem is actually why do people keep coming around to derail these threads with offensive remarks.

I'm not bothered by being called gay, I'm bothered that you implied that the majority (being heterosexuals) shares your opinion and I felt it mattered to relay that.

Studies conducted say that 80% of homophobes get aroused seeing gay porn.

Statistics tend to be made up unless properly referenced.

Not intending to question this study, but how did they get homophobes to even take part in such study?
