I do find it wrong that there is no new romance for the Straight female. I mean, if you're playing ME3 for the first time, then your only option is Kaidan.


Kaidan is all one really needs.



No offense, but I kill Kaidan, and I don't think I'm alone when it comes to that.

So like I said, I think the straight female should have gotten another option.


Seriously. Being stuck with Kaidan or no one sucks.


If it were Alistair, it'd almost be ok.

Yup even Alistair would only be a almost.

Much less Kaidan. =]

You know, I am looking forward to Samantha. From everything I've heard of her, she'd be basically perfect for main!Shep, if main!Shep weren't already two games into a relationship with Ash. I don't mean to sound ungrateful or anything.

(Still. ASH DAMMIT.)

Did someone check Diana's voice files already? Does she have sex scene? Or is she Samara/Vega like LI with flirting but no further progression in the span of the game (no matter what the reason)?


She doesn't have a Rom file so I don't think so.

So I guess she'll do the pole dance, like Kelly?

I found Anders and Fenris lines fitting their characters in DA2. If they became the model for EVERY s/s male LI from here on out I'd say your fears are justified. Maybe it was prejudice on my part, being a straight male, but the Anders romance DID feel different based on gender.


Not remotely prejudice. Anders is way different with a male Hawke. I have never romanced him with f!Hawke and never will, because he's a patronizing git who obsesses over protecting you and thinks you're too good and clean and perfect to be with his sparkly-skinned hole-dwelling self. I did manage to get through a m!Hawke, though, who he treats much more like a partner.


I don't really get this because he's always patronizing to Hawke on the friendship path.  He resists male Hawke just the same for 3 years because he thinks he is no good for Hawke. He doesn't tell male Hawke about the mage underground or what he is planning with the Chantry because he wants to "protect" him. Hawke being male makes no real difference in how the romance plays out. The only way to avoid all this is to rival him, but that's a different kind of creepy. Best not romance Anders at all.

But we've never influenced a predetermined trait or piece of canon.

But I think that actually clicking a button that turns a character straight in one playthrough and gay in another playthrough would count as influencing a predetermined trait or piece of canon.

Strangely enough...this is kind of what they did with Anders.
If you play as male, Karl was Ander's lover. If you play as female, Karl was Ander's friend.

Is it unrealistic for a bisexual male to emphasize his past male relationships to men, and focus on other subjects when talking to women?  I don't think so.  It's a part of relating to the person.

When you go to a job interview, you tend to focus on relevant experiences, so to speak.

Eh, you could knock out 2 of those 3 options because [SPOILERS]. Straight FemSheps are lacking options just as bad as the S/S crowd.

When it comes to the sheer numbers of straight MShep romances compared to what the straight FemSheps have an options for... Its a bit off, but when all is said and done we have to be greatfull for what has been provided because they could have had the franchise had began hetero-normatic; Male only, straight her, yada yada. But instead they choose to take charge and allow Shepard to be a male or female hero or "hero-by-results-not-action" in the renegade outlook, And also choose to allow both the ability to have romances with any gender. Sure we're all like more suggestions (hell I expected Kaidan with a hint of doubt that it would happen, but I knew when they announced that if anyone was going to be it was going to be him or Vega or both. But never did I expect them to add an exclusive in the form of Cortez. And sure as much as I would like for the beefy Vega to be available, I've got no problem with what was given. But there will always be disappointments for everyone. If not one thing, another.

But the point I was trying to make was that my sympathy has to be weighed against those who never got anything until now. It would definitely be best for everyone if there were more options available for straight female Shepard (and I wish there were, and I'm disappointed there aren't), but her well hasn't been totally dry the past two games like some others I could mention.

I also objected to the idea that anybody here would try to point to f/f options to assuage the disappointment of players whose straight female Shepards didn't have more than one new option (this entire thread exists for the purpose of having the right genders available to the right characters); this is probably the only reason I even responded, even though I didn't actually say anything about it. Nobody here is going to say "Well, you have lots of female LIs too, so why are you complaining?", and it wasn't fair to throw that suggestion in as part of the argument.

I could knock pretty much everyone out who thinks going [SPOILERS] is cute and at all vague for people who have been already partially spoilered against their will or doesn't have the IQ of a potato.

Suck it up?

I complained about it in the past, and they still managed to spoil it for me. I'm at least as unhappy as you, but I suppose that doesn't mean I have to spread the misery.

Edited.

If I think about it there were two options in mass effect one for whatever gender you play as,  they do make a point that asari aren't really female...kinda I think. (depends how you look at that)

Mass effect two had Three hetero options for both male and female Shepard I think.
and I wouldn't count Kelly as anything (hoping Samantha and Cortez aren't like that).

As far as I know in mass effect three there's only three New options all together,
only straight femshep doesn't really get one..Not that I actually 100% know anything just dont wanna assume anything.

(I'm not experienced at all on posting on forums so I apologize if messed up, just felt like saying somthing)

Sorry for getting snippy but it's something I've been noticing all to often.

@101ezylonhxeT You can find her thread here, not too much there.

No, I notice it and really dislike it as well. You were right to challenge it, and there was no excuse for me getting involved (I may have had to suffer terrible spoiler damage, but it doesn't give me license to inflict it on others).

Sadly, they will be unavoidable in the next couple days.

It's so approrpiate though.

... so does anyone remember or have links to several hundred pages back when we were talking about possible s/s options, and "they don't even have to be squadmates, you could have some guy who pilots the shuttle and hangs out in the hangar bay or whatever" was mentioned?

So do we confirmed SS/bi characters? Steve, Samantha, Liara (I know she is monogendered.... but the the purposes of this thread)... any others?
