And since we are talking about equity in Bioware games, here's a fun fact: there have only been 6 males available for same sex romance EVER in Bioware games. Four of them are in ME 3 and DA 2. Up to that point, the only options were Sky and Zevran.

Bioware has made huge progress lately in getting more and more equitable in their romance options, which is why I have full faith in them that they will do right by us.


Yep, this is one of the reasons that BW has earned so much of my respect, despite the mistakes they will (unevitably) make. Heck, let's go back to Hordes of the Underdark- male PC could technically have two women, but female PC didn't. Good thing I like Tieflings. Velen was my first foray into a BW romance and it's what's got me hooked on their games in a more general sense.

His romance can be continued with alot of decent amount of content, a sex scene and a romance good bye in ME3. Thanes romance is hardly continued in ME3 and Jacob cheats and leaves you. So ya that's not continuation.

 

I really am finding it silly that Thane's death totally disqualifies him from being a "proper li" so like when my loved one dies in real life I'm just going to dismiss the time I shared with them. Lol wut. 

Because I seriously enjoy his romance way more then Kaidan for goodness sake.

I don't really care, as long as there is a desire demon Companion/LI, I'm willing to roleplay whatever gender is necessary to make that happen.

For straight female Shepards and gay male Shepards there were 2.


You forgot the part where one of those straight options for femshep is reptile bestiality. :D


I know! It's completely unfair. <_<







My male Shepard wasn't allowed to romance Garrus and female Shepard is!

What is with you and this desire to love cool colored things that want to kill you?

Elfman, if I was in a setting like Dragon Age where homosexuality was considered an odd personality quirk and people are generally considered "straight" unti proven otherwise, I might find it useful to let a potential partner of the same gender know that I'm open to such relationships.

I see your point...but at the same time...just to outright say it like Anders did? As a gay guy, I found that to be very forced, in a way.

As long as there is no ninja romancing, I'm cool with whatever the person is.

To be fair, Justice turned to Vengeance. Why can't Desire turn to Compassion or outright Love?

Because it's not equal.

Would you be okay with only one romance option for the sexuality you like your character to be (which also reflects your real life sexuality perhaps) knowing that other people get to have more?  

Equal? When viewed in regards to percentages of the population it is more than fair.


Nice try troll.

A gay player should not have his/her content limited simply because they want to make a character that reflects who they are in the real world. 

Stating a simple fact makes me a troll? A developer shouldn't write characters that are open to romance the PC in all scenarios for the sake of appeasing a small percentage of their fanbase that thinks romance options being straight is some sort of injustice to them. They should have different sexualites just as they have different personalities and views. Should a romance with a radical mage be possible for a player who always stands with the Templars?


No. Your comment targeted sexuality.  You imply that since gays make up a tiny fraction of the population, they should just settle for less and be greatful with less.  Easy for you to say this since the shoe is not on the other foot. 
And yes. You indeed are a troll when it comes to romance/sexuality threads.  Billy is here.  I'm just waiting for Volus and Enigmatik now.

You do know Thane does not give you the romance achievment in ME3 yes? Thane has a very awkward kiss scene that makes no sense and a half assed hospital scene that again was poor which makes Allers romance look great, and Thanemancers do not get the romance achievment.Even the writers admitted they forogt he was a proper romance.

Except ypu can romance a radical mage while also being a big supporter of the Templars.

This. And the Citadel DLC only gives you a tiny little bandaid for it, too.

Oops, sorry. That totally went over my head. My left eye has gone half blind from reading these perilous BSN forums.

I really hope it isn't that stupid herosexual crap again.

The sexuality of a character should not depend on the protagonist's gender.

Exactly I wanted to have a relationship with Bethany in DA2, BioWare wouldn't let me, they're such bigots.

You trolls must have a hive mind or something.  Either that or you coordinate your attacks.



No, I can't throw a proverbial ball 10 feet without hitting one kind of weird deviant or another, you chaps give me so much to work with I'm almost spoiled for choice. I don't even have to troll, the twisted logic that passes for sense here does the work for me.


A weird deviant eh?
At least you are being honest with your intent now.  I'll giv e you that much.

Ooh, accusations of deviancy. Now the truth comes out. No pun intended.

I tend to roleplay characters who get a rush out of toying with death, but who knows. I'd probably play Bioware games a bit differently if they could kill you permanently.
