In the past couple of weeks BBC News (online) has been reporting on Mass Effect 3 and contravery surrounding the ending of the game. However, today the BBC had a posting about the fact that a Christian group in the United States is circulating a petition to boycoat Bioware for allowing homosexual romances. It is their right to complain but it is also Bioware's right to write their games as they see fit.
I commend Bioware of for a social stand and a very Canadian social stand. They have produced a series of games (Mass Effect and Dragon Age) that has pushed boundaries. Not only have they allowed homosexual characters in their games they also allow inter-racial and inter-species relationships. If this was the 1960's there would be huge uproar over that. No, this is the year 2012. Times have changed and the staff at Bioware are intrumental in allowing change.
The players of Dragon Age Origins who made countless mods to the game. Some mods allowed your male Grey Warden to marry King Alister and be his love mate. Other allowed you to have free wheeling relationship with other NPC's regardless. The huge mod concerning Roland is a fine example. To me, such mods say that the community wants these things. The communiity wants the freedom to express their views within the game. Bioware allows this and for that I take my hate off to them.
Thank you Bioware for being honest in your endeavers and producing great games that do more than entrall us with their tales and wonderful characters.
