This is a little off topic, but Skyrim has same-sex marriage in it.  I was just going to let this game slide on by, but maybe now I'll check it out.

I don't see this causing a huge controversy.  Likewise, I don't see ME3's SS options causing a huge controversy either- outside of these boards, that is.


So...they are saying all romanceable companions/npcs will be available to all PCs (regardless or race/sex)?

Sweeeeeeeeeeee

 The Skyrim marriage topic is already full of the usual "I DON'T WANT THAT IN MY GAME" BS that we get here. Unfortunately since the TES games allow basically anyone to be killed at any time unlike ME, it gets a lot more "I will resort to violence if I see any s/s stuff" <_<


But it makes *me* incredibly happy cause I'm no longer going to have to build relationships in my head, I can just expand on them. :B

As for what we'll get in ME3... at this point my money's on Kaidan, Joker, Vega for dudeSheps and Ashley, Liara, Kelly for femSheps. Apart from Ash, not my ideal selection of women, but looks good for the menfolk.

Sounds like a good possible list of gays except Kelly who to me seems like too much of a joke character. Nothing wrong with funny guys and girls of course, most stories are better with them. Instead I think there will be a new female human character, another Vega in a way, who will also be vunerable for FemSheps charms.

I wasn't going to buy Skyrim till some crazy steam sale or something...now I'm going to pre-order, if for nothing else to support the move towards equality.

Ya here the Bioware, particularly those in the Austin offices....

Gonna buy it as well, even though I'll never play it and just give it to my brother (he likes fantasy RPGs).

Interesting that who will be love interests will be spoilers. I wonder how much weight that theory about Vega being Leng has...:?

EDIT: And then theres the drama of the indoctrination of Kaidan and Ashley...then theres the revelation of Kelly being a Cerberus assassin...oh wait. :police:

Makes you wonder, if Ashley/Kaidan do turn out to be s/s options, how many of those homophobes will go back to ME1 and do a new playthrough where they leave the other one on Virmire so they don't have to *suffer through possibly getting hit on by someone of the same gender* in ME3.

* denotes sarcastic tone. Just to clarify ;)

They can't do that with Vega though :devil:

Unless he ends up being Leng and there's a becoming the mask moment and then we get a heart-filled all a lie moment. It might actually make people like Vega despite the faux-hawk. :whistle:

You keep thinking that...I'm prepared for any LI betrayal. Vega becomes Leng. Kaidan and Ashley are indoctrinated Reaper sleeper agents and Kelly will try to assassinate me. Though that last one I'm kind of hoping for. :devil:

Prepare for the worst - hope for the best. B)

I think in one of the 5 billion "Baaaaah S/S doesn't belong in ME let alone the world" topics that have sprung up, we've seen a handful of "OH NO. IF KAIDAN HITS ON ME I'LL LEAVE HIM ON VIRMIRE NEXT TIME" type posts. The logical part of my head just explodes because I do not understand how someone's brain can think that's an okay attitude. :| Haha if Ash IS a s/s option, I'm already planning to devote a single for two games FemShep to her. :wub: Sorry Kaidan, you're a good kid (lolcomic) but I've been hoping for this since 2007...

Don't worry, Kaidan's gonna be well, happy and satisfied more than ever before with my GayShep

Well, in that case BW may sell more copies of ME1 so there we have another economical incentive to include ss.

After watching the s/s mods on youtube all I can say is hot damn! Its about darn time! Definitely saw something between Kaiden and male Shepard. Or maybe female shepard and Jack; Jack needs some affection :) I hope Bioware gives a good dialogue with the romances. Props to Bioware for doing this! March 6th cant come fast enough! Would do anything to play it sooner.

As long as it isn't forced to either begin a s/s romance or not be friends with them as it was in DA2, I'll be fine. I wanna have bro chats with Garrus and Kaidan without them trying to get me to sleep with them, or vice versa.

What are you talking about? DA2 is the only one in BW's recent games where you could have just friendships, as romance dialogue was completely separate.

Garrus count: eleventy billion. For that matter, bro count: eleventy billion.

More seriously, nothing was forced on you in DA2. Believing that one line of dialogue constitutes a forced romance is paranoid. You could easily have a friendship with a character without romancing them.

I know you probably don't care,but I have something to say. Recent events in my life have substantially changed the way I see things,homosexuality included. I'm sorry for being an ass in the past,it shouldn't matter what sex you are as long as you love each other. But understand me,I'm still not 100% comfortable with it,but please give me time and I'm sure I'll get there. Anyway,I also wanted to apologise to anyone I might have offended and let me say something I should have said a long time ago: congratulations people!

:crying:

Beautiful, sir. 

But in all honesty, realizing that love above all else is what really matters is actually what put things in perspective for this (as in myself) ugly poster as well.

A very ballsy thing you did there sir, few are wise and strong enough to say things like this. Even so, you should remember that you have the right to your own opinion about homosexuality, games and what not. You don't have to like it at all, that is your right.
