At the risk of give out TMI, I am NOT gay, but my girlfriend has "penetrated" me with several of her favorite devices as a means to give a little extra "oomph" the the festivities, and I LOVED EVERY DAMN MINUTE OF IT, BABY! Wooooooooo!


So, what you're saying is these boys are freaking out over nothing, is that about right?


Sex is fun, especially if you know what you're doing. Even better if the one you're with knows what she's doing. And you'll be surprised how many things you once NEVER considered doing are a hell of a lot of fun once the one you love does them to you.


Well, the critical first step is realizing that you don’t become a different person—you don’t change your identity—because of some fun stuff you do in the bedroom. People get SO worked up over stuff like this, and it’s just recreational activities. :huh:

wow dude that is TMI. Never tried it and never will, the farthest I and my shep would go involves a thumb. Hopefully that's not TMI but I'd guess saying anything about sex probably is Image IPB.


Hey, that's more than most dudes will cop to, props to you. People shouldn't be uptight about this stuff, it's just sex for crying out loud. B)


*giggle* You used "uptight" and "sex" in the same sentence. :D

(sigh) So y'all actually did it Bioware. You turned Shepard gay. Congratu****inglations. You have now ruined the Mass Effect games for me and have lost my dollars on this franchise and as this has so far been the only one of your games I've played you have lost my dollars for all of y'alls future games.
Why couldn't y'all have gone the route Valve did with TF2 hinting @ gayness in a few characters even maybe Shepard without having forced it upon us as a possible canon side to him? @ least with the way TF2 does it though hinting can lend to the gamers own interpretation. I honestly do not care if y'all perma ban my account for these comments and not being politically correct but I'm now done with this franchise and forum as a whole.
And I sincerely thank y'all from the bottom of my heart for ruining a good franchise for me with this decision. (clap clap clap clap clap clap)
And welcome both Bioware and EA to my list of blacklisted game companies. Y'all can keep Namco Bandai company on my list. Though @ least with Namco Bandai they can easily work there way off by making Tekken 7 not have a offline level cap or patching 6. Y'all Bioware and EA have no hope to ever work your way off and get any more of my $$$$$.

Don't listen to ExtremeOne. He's just butthurt because Cerberus is the enemy in ME3, for reasons that haven't been explained yet, even though anyone with half a brain could see that one coming a mile away.


I will give ExtremeOne this, at least it's possible to reason with him even if it does end up taking a few walls of text compared to the others of the intensely pro-Cerberus crowd.  I know I managed it once, and yes it was like climbing Mt. Everest though minus the frostbite, oxygen deprivation and potential of death.

I will admit to being curious as to what specifically bothers him about m/m relationships since he's pretty clear that's the only thing that skieves him.

    





As I have said I have no issue with seeing 2 women have sex . But 2 men having sex is disgusting and it has always been something I do not like at all.  Oh I hear people on complianing about the rage over this . Did you really think Bioware could do this with 0ut having some backlash .  Th

DA did it. Origins I mean and there was a lot more sex seen in that one then DA2. Just sayin. DA2 was make out on bed and then fade out to clothed players.

But my satirical chum (I know your secret) you will never see Shepherd engaging in male homoerotic acts unless of course you search them out.  So,  unless you doubt your self control I doubt you will be seduced by a male character.

While I am a great fan of both George Takei (oh, my!) and Star Wars, both have nothing to do with this topic or Mass Effect. And I still see we're taking the occasional pot shot at each other. I am starting to wonder if this thread has outlived its usefulness?

Let's stay on target, please.

Whether or not they considered it for ME1 and ME2 is moot because ultimately they did not include it so it couldn't have been their policy at that time.


EDIT: that was mean of me, sorry.

Anyway, I'll try to lay it out one more time then I'm off to the gym.

Bioware desides at some point to include s/s options to the romance subplots of the games.
As each game comes along, they dicede to include it or not.
KOTOR, no.
Jade Empire, yes.
Mass Effect, no.
DA:O, yes.
ME2, no.
DA2, yes.
ME3, yes.
SWOR, can you even romance NPCs in that ?

Obviously I know no more than you do as we are not Bioware staff, but from my point of view, and working in software development being exposed to cut features all the time, I can easily seeing this as a case by case call.

   



Oh you forget in the Star Wars games they have to get things cleared by Lucas Arts . 


Th person got KotOR wrong.

Juhani was a lesbian in KotOR. I guess that cleared it LA.


Yes, they should also add f/f for both ME1 and ME2 (kelly + LOTSB and initial Illium kiss) so YES for ME1 and ME2, just not m/m.

....BioWare is pretty amazing, same-sex content in all those games! Makes arguing against s/s content in one of their games pretty silly ehh?:ph34r:


It's not just silly, it's really sad.

Why not use Omnigel?  :lol:


Well, there is all that left over Omnigel from ME1 and we wouldn't want that to go to waste.


Actually, that'd make sense. Kaidan was supposed to be a m/m LI in ME1, but as we know it didn't get implemented soooo in ME2 we don't get to use the Omnigel...and in ME3 we have tons of Omnigel available and so if Kaidan is the bi LI...:wub:

Oh, well that's your opinion then. Strangely, I still don't see anything wrong with it. And most of the backlash seems to be quite localized to a few people concerned about implementation, and even fewer people who are just freaked out completely because two dudes doin' each other is just "disgusting". I'll give you the same advice I've given others—don't knock it until you've tried it. :D

Hmm, I'm always suspicious of stereotypical protest letters, especially when they try to convey a southern accent in print. If this letter is legit, you are very very sad. If this was meant to be a satire of the stereotypical homophobic bigots, it is in poor taste. Homophobes come from all races and regions, and the South has given birth to many socially progressive people.

What about thoee who would find it disgusting to find fs/s encounters? If going by your standards, that should works the same way (my wife sees this conversation annoyingly funny). Would seeing a m/f be half-disgusting? Seriously, just don't make the choices where you have that encounter, you make the choices anyway. It really isn't that hard and everyone gets the win/win.

EDIT: Bioware, please fix the formatting of these forums, I hate losing what I type and placing text in another format, then copying and pasting it back gorfs the reply.

Please?
Have a nice stay over at some other games social site!

I do want to understand where you're coming from on this so you're going to have to help me on it.

Clearly from what you've posted, you won't be partaking of any of the male s/s options that end up coming available.  That's fine, there's currently romances in game that I wouldn't touch with a 20 metre cattleprod.

So, with this added content being accessible through clearly worded options on the dialog wheel and with some coloured text as a back up, since you wouldn't be going near it and so would essentially be just vaporcode on your game, is it still so unbearable?

I could understand if things were something really out there where  you're not able to avoid seeing what bothers you and it's pretty much giving you screenshots of the content for loading screens, but as an option that's not right out dancing on the screen in neon but just needs some specific actions from you to access, help me see through your eyes how this is a problem?

Suspect. Post is suspect.

However, if BioWare's name has just been added to a powerful blacklist then I shall have to contact the Shadow Broker...gotta protect them....:bandit:
