The points still stands it's his face, they can't just do whatever you see fit with it.

Actually, depending on the contract he signed, yes they can.

You don't see my point because you fail to recognize the difference between the "black and white" decision to be a ruthless bastard, and a very sensitive "grey area" subject like homosexuality in a predominantly straight society.

The decisions you call the  'black and white' are that way because most would agree that killing, torture, genocide, etc is immoral.  It's not a sensitive 'grey' area like homosexuality is, as you pointed out.   Homosexuality is grey because it's immorality is debatable.

But do you think it's better for him to be depicted in a way that most would agree is negative (the evil Ruthless way), than to be depicted in a way that just some think is negative (as a homosexual)?

Sure legally they "can", but if Mark didn't want to happen...it wouldn't happen.

That's moot. No professional actor is going to turn down a role because he has to record a few romantic homosexual lines.

How so? He can't sue them, he signed a contract. And in his profession, that would be career suicide. This is grasping at straws.

Some people haven't watched 'Brokeback Mountain' around here, I guess.

[DeathCultArm]

Again..publicity. How would it look if a model reported out how a video game company was using his likness against his will for a *** character..?

He would look really stupid when they bring up the face that he signed a contract allowing them to use his likness as they see fit.

[Radahldo]

you are writing *** instead of gay, again.

[DeathCultArm]

Maybe he would look stupid, but you know i'd work. All people would hear is "STRAIGHT MAN MUST BE *** AGAINST WILL IN MASS EFFECT"..

[Mystranna Kelteel]

LMAO



Lamb, just quit while you're 5 miles behind. Really, you're too far gone to keep this up.

[DeathCultArm]

Just go back to ignoring me, please?

It's annyoying everytime a point is made that hapens to be negative one, it's void.

Two things: one, it's okay to type GAY. Two, why would he cause a fuss? It would not be a surprise to him. Plus, his face is the face of a major and popular video game hero. Why would he want to lose that? Oh, and if he did make a fuss, there goes his modeling career. No one would want to work with him if he's just going to change his mind about how his image is used. So yeah, he would lose horrible and BioWare would gain a huge amount of exposure.

By the way, I'll ignore you if you stop posting.

I'm simplying trying to make the point that he could. And I don't even think it would be smart, to cause the scandal. But, for everyone to pretend ever actor, or potenital customer wouldn't care is naieve. People on the opposite never try and look at things from both perspectives. It wouldn't be good.for.business.

I have proven my point. You know where I stand on that last question, jlb524. I wish it were that simple, but the fact is that it is not. I have gay friends. I have witnessed them experience great pain in the name of homosexuality. I personally do not object to a male/male option, but that doesn't change the generally intolerant and predominantly heterosexual society we live in.

I really doubt he would care. More so, if I recall, ME1 had lines recorded for kaiden and maleshep to romance but it was taken out due to time. So, I really doubt it would even surprise him.

[DaeJi]

From what can gather, the most likely reason that same sex romances may be cut is space, something a DLC would fix.

[Sacae]

I'm a bisexual female gamer, and I kind of hope for a same-sex coupling at some point. And no...asexual excuses do not count...Also I thought Kaiden and Male-shep would have been a very cute couple. So seeing a m/m wouldn't be bad either.

[DaeJi]

I wish people knew what asexual meant; Asari are sexual beings and reproduce sexually. An individual Asari may be asexual, but the species itself is not.

I know ^_~ I just love using the incorrect word because a Dev did as well awhile back. Personal joke.

But, the whole "She's not really female" line gets on my nerves.

In that case my Shepard isn't really female either. So what happened between her and Liara was something beyond what anyone could imagine.

Except Germany and Japan.
