     Am I the only one tired of getting so many "Conveniently" Bi characters in bioware games? I have nothing against people who are Bi I just feel its a copout by bioware. I LIKED in ME3 how they actually wrote gay characters who seemed like real people and not walking stereotypes (looking at you DA2). I'm also fine with Bi characters when it makes sense and its written into their characters (I was fine with Zevran and Isabella for instance).

But I feel Bioware goes overboard and just starts making characters Bi... for the sake of being BI and adding nothing to their characters. Biggest offenders for me were characters who had appeared previously and are suddenly Bi, Kaidan and Anders come to mind here... some hints at it in the 1st game they appeared in would have been nice. Merril and Fenris struck me as poorly done "BIs" as they never seem to make mention of the fact that they are BI... hell I think "PCsexual" fits better since they wanna bang the PC regardless of gender, which to me is poor writing. I mean really, the PC just HAPPENS to put together a team thats like 50% switch hitters?


maybe I'm way off here but, I think the characters come out better when they are written as Gay/straight/BI from the get go. Some LI's being unavalible to certain genders is GOOD. One of my faorite moments in ME3 was getting shot down by the gay indian chick as manshep! Less Bi characters and NO PCsexual characters bioware!

Once again-- the romances are *not* "all bisexual". While some people don't like subjective sexuality, being aware of the fact some of your love interests could romance someone of the same gender in another game takes a back seat to fairness and fun gameplay. As I said before, if we have a sufficient number of romances, a spread of set sexualities would actually be my preference... but that's not always going to be the case, as the game's focus is not on romance content even if threads on the BSN often seem to be.

And since this topic inevitably goes downhill very quickly, I'll close this here.
