i think the new female is going to be an alien. in that case i hope they fully explore the Kelly romance, especially for the f/f part of it.

Come to think of it I do not like Jacob's uniform either. I might as well tell them to walk around the ship naked while my Shepard and the girls kick some ass and come back for our foot massages and lie back while we are being oiled down and fed grapes by hand. I am sure I can come up with some other things for them to take care of too.

Yeah, I'm not digging Vega's uniform myself. He'll be at least shirtless 90% of the time. For academic purposes of course. *AHEM*

Kaidan's armor looks AWFUL. My Shepard is going to make him take it off at the first opportunity.

Mine too, but not because the armor's ugly Posted Image


Damn, Isaac. My gay Sheps should take notes from yours.

Have you folks been being perverted in my absence? Man, I'm gone for a week, I miss all the good stuff (yes, that was a Jacob pun. No, I am not ashamed).

I haven't actually done a man candy run in ME, though, now that I think about it. It happened a lot in Dragon Age, Morrigan/Wynne/Leliana is about as brutal a party as you can have in the late game and in the early game Shale makes a better tank than Alistair, while Aveline/Merrill/Isabela is pretty much the height of awesome banter. So the boys do tend to sit around camp with no shirts looking pretty (well, the shirts they show up with, anyway).

In ME, though, I tend toward split parties; Ash/Kaidan, Ash/Garrus, Liara/Wrex, Tali/Kaidan, Garrus/Kasumi, Samara/Thane.... none of whom actually converse with each other (outside of the occasional ME1 elevator), or I'd definitely do more Jack/Miranda runs (they actually synergize really well and God their banter would be awesome if they had it).

My maleShep is an Infiltrator so I pretty much went for a balanced team for ME and ME2 unless the mission specifically called for higher tech/biotics/combat/whatever. ME1 squad was mostly Shepard/Kaidan/Wrex and ME2 squad was Shepard/Miranda/Grunt.

I may have to install a cooling system in my PC if I ever had to do a maleShep/Kaidan/Vega squad for ME3. That might be more hawtness than my poor rig can take. Posted Image

"What if you do not want to engage an unwanted same-sex relationship in ME3? How is it avoided?"

"Same as any other relationship. You're never forced to pursue anyone.

The one femShep of mine who can bring herself to talk to Jacob soundly disagrees with your assessment, Mr Walters!

(Actually I do suspect that's one mistake they won't make again; they certainly were quick enough to respond to the venom about the Ash/Kaidan ninjamances, and the hatred about the Jacob/femShep voice direction has been no less vocal or vehement.)

Just saw this on Twitter. 

It needs to be drummed into the head of every single person on the forum.

At least it's confirmation that there isn't and won't be a toggle. Hopefully people will stop making a dozen threads a week calling for one.

I actually don't think we've had one in a little while now...better rectify that...I'm getting quite bored. :whistle:

Let's hope that means there's no more crap like being trapped in a romance with Ashley with Shep's only choices being 3 different ways of saying yes. 

Because that sh*t was/is annoying o/s or no.

I don't think we'll have news for a long time.... and it'd certainly be posted here if there was. :)

Nothing new. All we know is high chance Kaidan will be available for ManShep (courtesy to Raphael Sbarge) and everyone expects Vega & new female (whoever she is) to be available as well. Ash is the most likley 'old female' since we think VS will have the same content.

Even Eurogamer can't help? It's sad. But predictable- we will suffer intil the game will be here. :devil:

That's pretty much how I play my DA parties...except I switch in Shale for Morrigan when she's annoying me XD

Aveline/Merrill just has the best banter of all, IMO....then Isabela/Aveline.

For gods sakes.

Really? Do I honestly have to say this AGAIN?

How do we expect the ignoramouses who are anti-ss to be convinced of the logic of our arguement (the pro-ss camp) that Mass Effect can only be improved by increased diversity if we keep perpetuating this infuriating myth ourselves? Hmm?

Bisexual DOES NOT EQUAL Gay.

We are never going to have an exclusively gay character in a Bioware game. 

Sorry as much as I would love to see it, it just isnt going to happen for simple resourcing reasons. Not enough people are going to uptake the romance with an exclusively gay character to justify having one. At least from Bioware's point of view.

The best we are going to get is a few bisexual LIs.

Thats it.

Bisexual =/= Gay.

Well, now that its been clarified that optional content is optional....let's keep :wizard:. Even though Kaidan would be my favorite m/m option, Vega isn't too bad eh? :wub:

In many people's minds a s/s relations is a "gay" relationship even if one or both are bisexual or heteroflexible. A o/s relationship is considered "straight" even if one or both are bisexual or homoflexible. I know quite a few bisexuals and homosexuals including family members who have this view themselves.

I think there's actually two different questions here, and two different answers.

Question 1: "Who is gay in ME3?"
Answer: "Probably no one, but there's been no official word on that. We'll most likely have a mix of straight and bisexual love interests."

Question 2: "Who will be available for a gay relationship in ME3?"
Answer: "No one knows yet. There will be same-sex relationships in ME3, but no bisexual or homosexual love interests have been revealed."

I still have hopes have we'll get exclusively gay romances no matter how right you probably are that they won't waste resources for us. I can't help but have really high expectations for this game. If I'm let down, I'll deal with it (as should the ones that don't want s/s romances. But it's impossible to make them understand so whatever) XD

And yeah, it's true, most consider bisexuals the same as homosexuals. If they don't like homosexuals then they most likely don't like bisexuals either, and so it doesn't make a difference for them if a character can have relationships with both sexes or not.
