I'm fine with same-sex romances as long as we don't get the silliness of formerly straight characters suddenly becoming bisexual in order to pander.

I approve.

Because...um...I'm conservative.

Edit:  Actually...it's a great idea.  If they axe all heterosexual romances, they can put the extra time into creating things like a separate 'Cerberus' path through the game so people like Kaiser and Seboist will be satisfied.  They can keep one gay and one lesbian romance in the game so the can say they're 'progressive'.  Adding in heterosexual romances isn't really necessary and won't make them 'stand out' since that type of content is a dime a dozen in video games.

I can get behind this.
Although I'd have it that there's only one homosexual romance each game (can't have too much 'pandering') and which portion of the homosexual community gets the delcious s/s content will be decided by the homosexual community (perhaps they can take it in turns or something).

I find it weird how OP just chooses to ignore the alien LIs, which are (IMO of course), the better romances for both genders.


of course they are b/c...

all human squadmates are boring, amirite?

Too late. That's what we're getting.

*facepalm* Let's just say that they should keep thing how they are.

I am unaware of that. Evidence?

Not all of them. But in general, I personally tend to find the aliens more interesting.

Oh boy, somebody used the word "pander".

*takes a drink*

Woo! Now it's a party!

For the people asking which characters formerly only open to one gender have been expanded to both, I believe they are Ashley and Kaidan. I don't have any proof, however.

I can't seem to remember a character telling Shepard that he/she is heterosexual. Except for Jack who actually confuses me with her "Girl's club" thing.

"His" girl's club thing? You must really have been confused.

There's nothing confusing about the girls club comment. She's not into girls. So she'd better not be into girls in ME3.

I never thought that comment had anything to do with her sexuality. I just thought that she meant she wasn't the sort to get friendly with people...y'know, just in case Shepard was thinking of bringing in Scary and Baby.

Jack would be "Scary", I'd think. :lol:

I honestly always thought Kaidan was gay. Also, I don't see the issue with certain characters becomin s/s options in ME3. If we're being honest, just about anything can be made to sound sexually suggestive, and no one gas clearly defined their sexuality before, so it wouldn't be a break in continuity.

Don't worry Mister,  Jack is staying straight in ME3 I'm almost positive of it.  Kind of dissapointing to me,  but,  I can't argue much against the girl's club line.

I beg to differ.  Rightly or wrongly, I didn't get any "I'm not bi/lesbian" vibe from that comment at all.  I just got the impression that she wasn't interested in a close friendship with a woman.  But that's based on context, since I'm straight myself and play a straight FemShep, so I was just trying to be Jack's friend and it was this that I felt she rebuffed.

Yep, this is pretty much the feeling I got from that comment.

You are deluding yourself. She's not a lesbian. The comment has nothing to do with friendship.

Not purely homosexual, but bisexual maybe.

Besides, she says she never liked the idea of a boyfriend or a girlfriend.

Prove it.

I personally think it could go either way, but the fact remains that people hear different things when she says that line. There's nothing concrete either way.

She says it in reference to her experimention with a threesome, one guy and another girl. The inference is clear.

I think this whole debate is moot anyway. It doesn't look like Jack is going to be bi in ME3 whether she was or wasn't implied to be in ME2.

I must have missed that, because that line and her story about the two thugs she ran with are in two completely different conversations.
