In any case, nothing was said about romances - or anything, really -, but I'm confident that we will have same sex relationships, regardless of how they decide to go with it.

at the sheer mention of a game, the first thing that you people think of is the sex

has literally only been announced


umm for the record we were talking about romance no one said anything about sex  
(I don't just straight people and why when ever lgbt stuff comes up the only thing they seem to think it  means is all we do or want to do is have sex. we love as much if not more intensely as straight people.)

Gay romances are more of an guarantee at this moment than:

+ Multiple races
+ RPing
+ Choices that matter
+ A non-dumb dialogue system
+ Tactical combat
+ Overhead camera

So could people stop asking about it???

They don't. We have a F/F thread, had a For the Love! thread (that was deleted) and we have this thread. Not to say that we should spam the forums asking for same sex romances, but the amount of threads on the subject is nothing compared to the "Make DA III Origins 2.0!" ones, really.

Considering how many of their games have had s/s romances lately I really don't think you need to worry. I'm like 99.99% sure it will have it.

ok so by your reasoning everybody should stop talking about things that have already been talked about?go to the weapons thread go tell them they already have weapons they should stop talking about that go to the dialogue wheel thread tell them mr gider already said we're getting the wheel so they should stop talking about it go to the turn of the voice thread tell them to stop talking about it cause giader said that isn't going to happen so stop talking about it go in to any other thead tell them to stop talking about it cause it won't change anything MY POINT AND I DO HAVE ONE IS s/s stuff is going to be it so we would like to talk about what they might do with it we have as much a right to talk about stuff as anyone else and to not have someone b*tch at us about it being wrong or they don't want it in it cause it makes them uncomfortable.

 I loved the way the did in Mass Effect 3. I played Maleshep for reference, the relationship wouldn't be the same for Garus and Shepard and Samantha Shepard had they been bisexual. Although I'm not sure if adding in more romances would take away from those that are already there, that said I didn't have a problem with the way they did it in DA2 either but it'll be interesting to see how they decide to implement it in DA3.


i'm gonna be so sorry for asking this but i must casue it just bugs the hell out of me when people say this 
but  how the hell does him might being with a guy in someone elses playthrough take anything out of your relationship? 
just because it's there does not chage the way he or they feel



You mean Shepard being with a guy? or Garus?  I wasn't talking about the sexuality of Shepard but of Garus and Samantha. Both are unromancable for maleshep, whether Shepard's bi or not doesn't matter.

I changed my post to clarify it

Thread is being (somewhat) watched by me so please don't do anything that would make me want to bring out the hammer.

I did mean Garus or any of the npc romanceable characters for that matter 
(maybe we should talk about this over the pm so that the ban hammer dosn't come out)

I don't doubt for a minute that there will be same sex romances in DA3. As I understand it Bioware implemented them because they had data suggesting that players liked the option. I'm talking specifically about DA1 and the number of people who went that route. Honestly, it wouldn't be Dragon Age without some same sex lovin' and that's the way it should be!

Well, Kaidan was bisexual, and a lot of people were happy for the most part. I guess if you don't agree with certain character swing a certain way then just don't choose it. :?

In that case I didn't mean to imply the realtionship would be better or worse, just different. For example a gay Shepard's relationship with Kaidan  would be different than it is with Garus. Or a straight Shepard's relationship with Liara would be different then it is with Samantha.

Kind of like how you have your guy friends and then girl friends, the relationship is different, not better or worse.

Do you get what I'm saying now?

I think people are misunderstanding what I wrote :unsure:

I said I that I do like the variety of bi/straight/gay characters. I liked both Kaidan, Garus, and Samantha. I never said I had a problem with the way any of them swinged

A bit, I think! Can you explain it again, maybe?

Edit: Okay! Reading your other post made it better to understand your point. I believe the point is: even if Garrus were to be bisexual, you could still have a friendship with him, simply by choosing not to take the romantic route.

I do, however, get the merits of ME3's system, with a heterosexual LI, a bisexual LI and a homosexual LI. I would be okay with that, but if they don't have the resources I would prefer the DA II system over DA:O's.

Do you mean that gay and straight relationship with LIs should be different, but you don't mind that there is no gender restriction? Or do you mean that there should be friendship between LIs as well?

It wasn't there for the first 2 ME games though (Technically, there's Liara, but lesbians are hot, so I guess it bypasses the mainstream crowd). I think ME team kinda got scared by the controversy at the time, so they remove it. I'm glad that they reimplemented the option though. I'm sad that it takes too long though since my Shep was alone for 2 whole games. I do understand their point of view that they have to appeal to the majority since they are a business and wanting to make money. I believe the same thing is happening with SWTOR . It's Bioware's first MMO, so they don't want to offend the mainstream audience.

@Hidden: David Gaider wrote in an old thread awhile back that all the companions will be romanceable by either gender. They will essentially be "Hero"-sexual.

So - yes - you will get S/S. Eh, that rhymed...

 Haha okay am I confusing everyone on this thread? Here I'll give a real world example:

There's a Gay girl, a gay guy, a straight girl, and then gay girl number two.

First the relationship between the gay girl and the gay guy. They go out maybe get their nails done. Talk about girls/guys they think are cute, theres absolutely no sexual tension between them and they're besties forever.

Now the relationship between the gay girl and straight girl. They have lunch sometimes, maybe the gay girl thinks the straight girl is pretty but knows that they wont be together, thats okay she loves her as a friend anyway. They have a nice little relationship and are good friends.

And then the relationship between the first gay girl and the second gay girl. The both think eachother are attractive but they are just friends. Maybe something will happen in the future maybe not. For now they both have a very good firendship and will always be there for eachother.

See how all the relationships are different? They are all good relationships, neither worse nor better but just different

So I guess, going by your example, bisexual people aren't allowed to have friends?  Or do they not exist?

Lol, no. In short I meant that it would be nice if there were gay straight and bi love interests for variety. I was giving an example of the relationships my Shepard had with each of the companions and how they were all different. But some people may have hated all the companions therfore would of felt completely different.

Who's on third?  The gay guy or the straight girl?  Is this one of those thinking exercises that I hated so much in high school?  Or are you trying to make the point that not all gay people are necessarily gay for all other gay people?  Because I would respond that all people are gay for the hero, especially commander shepard!
