Not a Kaidan fangirl at all, I've Virmired him every time, but that is just so wrong. I hope this is just a rumor.

And come ON... not everyone in the future can be bi. That's just ridiculous. There should be a good mix of all three, or there's nothing special about the choice.

But what am I saying... destroying the meaning of the choice is the name of the game in ME3.

I don't get it. If he has such a small female straight fanbase, why put him in ME3 at all? And as a squadmate? Was he there just for the gay male base?

EDIT > 
We don't know if this is true... only the OP can confirm some of that.
What bothers me is that it's totally believable.
As I said, I don't know if Bioware are very good at knowing their fanbase, and even if they are, do they really care about minority players such as straight women, femShep players or people who romanced ME2 characters?

Wow, haven't open this thread for a very long time and then I got to see that rumor from Enigma O.o' which made my head hurt a lot!! >=O
If that news is true then I'm really REALLY done with Bioware! But since it's not officially out yet then maybe it's still not too late to whack things up and make some REALLY LOUD noise to make them change their mind. Maybe send them lots of fem!Shep-Kaidan fan art, flood their twitter and pester 'em >=\\

Btw from the Romance DLC thread, they're doing a new survey on Survey Monkey and the results will be sent to Bioware (survey ends on the 12th July). So, vote in for our fave Biotic and make your self heard ;)

What do you mean DONE!
If this is true I am absolutely not going to be DONE with Bioware.
I won't settle for DONE.

I. Will. Burn. Things. Down. With Doodle.
Maybe throw flaming bras at Bioware social headquarters in the process.
I can be pretty imaginative when I'm pissed. 
EDIT > it does NOT imply sending fan art.

Now don't shoot the messenger people but I have some potential news. Good for some and bad for others...

This is very hush hush and I am not supposed to say anything but I am very upset, with no offense to the gay people, so I had to vent it here! I am actually not even sure its true but my source at Bioware is usually not wrong. He was right back then 6 month's before me3 when telling me about Kaidan being bi in male shep world. Or actually Bioware called it more like a "mod", my friend said their reason to turn him was because people was gonna make mods anyways so they might as well make money out of it and make it easier for those people and thats why he is not completely bi with a bi past and all but that's another issue.

My friend says they are "discussing" the idea of Kaidan coming completely out of the closet and being purely gay and no more romancable by fem shep in future dlc since the gay fanbase is larger and more out there and more verbal in the forums. By future dlc he explicitly said even though he is already romanced by fem shep she might not get any new content with him, only male shep will, this will mean less work for Bioware when making romance content only for male shep. Of course not in the game it self but only in dlc. He says xxxxx from Bioware said straight women wants Garrus! And if they want Kaidan they are not loud enough!
He says they don't hear enough from straight females and the vs in general isn't that popular to begin with. He also says nothing has been decided for certain yet and half the team don't want it and that he is not part of the deciding team but that they have a lot of dlc planned and limited money. If this is true then I am done with Bioware! Even though the game is done and everything, there is lots of dlc on the way and this is not fair!

Hopefully I will have more info as time passes and I will post them here!

I am actually betraying my friend here so I hope they don't find out who he is.... :-(


I'm having a hard time believing that you're not trolling this thread, but on the off chance you're not, is it possible that your friend is having a go at you, and just wants to make you upset?

This really does sound ridiculous, and I don't even see how making Kaidan "purely gay" is possible.  I would even go so far as to say that if you are making this up, you're being really offensive, and I hope this isn't the case.

I'm actually thinking about alerting the mods to this, so if you want to change your story now, this would be a good time.  I'm really not interested in someone trying to stir up trouble between FemShep and MaleShep Kaidan romance fans in this thread.   :mellow:

Sorry.  I don't buy that.  At all.

Edit: I agree with Syllogi on this as well.

Just for the information, this, if accurate, would not make me mad at MaleShep Kaidan fans. I don't see why it would BTW.

Out of everything mentioned for Kaidan, if this Romance DLC goes anywhere, I think our best bet would be searching out and finding his Biotic Squad. Seems the most logical unless they want to add a plot point rather than build on one.


That is an awesome idea. Of course, I'd be lying if I said anything that was Kaidan related would not be absolutely, completely welcome. But unpphh, can a girl really get enough Kaidan?  Just sayin'.

This.

The devs would no more make Kaidan exclusive to s/s than they'd make Leliana or Zevran exclusive to the o/s.

Just no.

I can see people turning this "rumor" into an argument/debate about whether Kaidan's romance is "better" for male or female Shepards.  

Also, the whole "bisexual means he's really gay" thing makes my skin crawl.  Kaidan loves Shepard, no matter the gender.  Full stop.  It is rude and offensive to make up stories about the writers wanting to "stop" the femShep romance because the romance is "better" as the m/m version.   

I'm really hoping that the poster was just having their leg pulled by a friend, and isn't making things up.  But it sounds really, really suspect.

Relax people. The rumor's not true. Don't split the ship people. We all love Kaidan here. I've been seeing this more and more, even on tumblr. People saying one is better than the other. Why bother even saying that? It's just to stir up trouble.

They killed off Krios so then all that's left is Garrus? Not gonna happen.

After the ending fiasco, do you guys really think Bioware would alienate more of their fans? I seriously doubt this is even on their list of things to do in a DLC.

I actually seriously doubt a romance DLC is on their list of things to do either  though <_<

I really don't see Bioware making exclusive romance DLC.
But then, they actually have done so many things I just couldn't quite imagine.
The sheer possibility to actually skip dialogues or combat and alter the gameplay from ME3 to suit your needs sounded heretic to me, and yet they did it.

So in the case they actually would issue romance DLC - and quite frankly, with all the surveys and polls going on, the fan initiatives expressing their love, etc., i'm starting to wonder if they would not consider this as an easy money bet - well, this, as I said, is really believable to me.
 
Now as a straight woman, I didn't wait for this rumor to be (really) upset by the way Kaidan's sexual character was handled and to voice it, but I blame Bioware, not male gay fans!

Sorry, enigma but unless there is an official response from BioWare I'm not buying it.

To have BioWare even consider Kaidan being exclusively gay would be an insult to each and every female Mass Effect player. And as much as I love having the chance for my male Shepard to finally romance Kaidan, it's totally and completely wrong to have it happen at the expense of female Sheps.

Thanks for your input but it sounds as if your "friend" is trolling by proxy -- and that can only turn out very, very badly.

OK - He approved of EDI's new body promptly after announcing that it 'scared the sh!t' out of him. Doesn' think he'll survive an Ardat-Yakshi encourter (calls the normal ones 'attractive') gets caught staring at Allers... uh, Assets and knews a surprising amount about fetish websites according to TVtropes.com.

Yeah... unless bioware wants to retcon that...? Don't see what your friend says happening any time in the future.

Yeah this whole thing just sounds ridiculous. How would they even go about making him a totally gay character when the games are pretty much finished now and we've only got a few more DLCs to look forward to. That would be a bizarre time to retcon a character.
Plus the female Kaidan fans are some of the most vocal out there so I don't see how the logic of "we only hear from his gay fans" makes any sense.

Hoo boy I DO hope that this is just one bad joke about no more fem!Shep-Kaidan content..

But after seeing what they did to the Thane-mance, Jacob-mance and their previous statement of 'All LI's are equal' kind of thing.. Yeah.. -_-' I guess I'm more inclined to believe the bad news. That way, when it turns out to be wrong I can breathe easy and laugh at me being paranoid =P

*God dear God, pls let this be JUST a rumour and nothing else T_T..*
