and guys like you should be cloned .

Don't get me wrong, I didn't like the fact that in origins you could woo Lelianna as a man, it looked OOC (talking about Lelianna). Plus neither liked the lack of an exclusive male gay character (Zevran doesn't count, he could **** a tree if given the chance)... but i REALLY hated the fact that in Dragon Age 2 everyone was "The Sims"exual... Anders should had been an option for just girls, not for guys.

I want characters to have their own real preferences, I'm not asking for something as intrusive as "make Oghren a foot fetishist because he is a dwarf" but more like we could let him stay "Brankasexual". Everyone here is asking for the first one, that's what is alienating me as a straight man. Is like if god would make me bi because a bunch of yaoi-fanfic-writter gods represent a huge amount of a marketer-god research database.

Well most people seem to prefer a more realistic approach but it's about resources and representation. Is it fair to shaft one group because in favor of more realistic characters? 

 

Anyway, what they are doing atm seems pretty damn good and I don't see many reasons to complain. 

 

I find your comparison a little off, game characters aren't real people and there are limits to how realistic they can be. I'm not saying they should flip around the sexual orientations of characters but we shouldn't be comparing their creation to how and why humans are the ways that they are.

They are real in their own plane as we are in our own.

About what they are doing right now I like the fact that Dorian is not avaible for girls (unlike Lelianna, who was strangely avaible for men). But also I beg for fully straight characters like Alistair and Morrigan and openly-bisexual ones like Zevran, I'm not asking for "shafts" against any individual.

What i don't want to see is the rehearsal of Simsexual characters that was DA2, i felt ubber alienated because the only heterosexual one was Varric. I would never force "Gobias Koffi" to date a girl even if i'm not into men+men relationships, I ask the same respect i'm giving, nothing more.

You don't have to beg since there are straight and bisexual characters.

Cassandra and Cullen are straight, and Josephine and Iron Bull are bisexual.

 

There are also two more unrevealed romances.

Yeah, thankfully we don't have to beg with this particular game.  There are straight, bisexual, and gay characters of both genders.  Everyone is getting at least two options.  While some people will undoubtedly be bummed with the specific choices that they will have access to, at least we all (well, maybe almost all) have representation, more than one choice, and roughly an equal amount of choices.  I think that they did a pretty good job, all things considered.  But then again, I might be biased because I <3 Dorian and <3 Iron Bull, so I'm a happy dude right now.

why do you say Anders should have been only for girls ? its like if you say isabela should have been only for men ! which will leave us with only fenris and merril as potential relations for both sex ?! we would have fallen into the same error in dragon age origin ! where you're only choice for a gay male was zevran ! (and zevran was not even that intersting charcater to exploit a same sexual relationship !!and he was always saying between the two he still prefer women duh...(and personaly not slightly charismatic nor plot-intriguing as alistair )) . No am sorry , i was very glad you had the same sex option with Anders (and with a background story reffering to Karl as his first love !!) and the same stands for fenris ! and anyways you can't compare DA2 and Inqui option because in the latter ,we have many characters in the party now ! thats why they where able to please evrybody with 2 male and female ,straight ,two male and female gay ect ! you have cullen straight and cassandra and we have dorian and sera and bi are vivienne and iron bull + straight varric and the rest like solas (which i don't know if he's or not romancable like cole )and others unkown characters we don't know about (probably straight am pretty sure hum.) .

I agree on the fact that games should be like real life by making the gay only option ,if there is enough characters !! and when there is not enough to satisfy evrybody ,then you make the characters bi ! because there arent enough and you cannot decide who will want to romance isabela as a female or anders as male ! that way everybody can have a chance ! because it stays a game and a game is about selling you fantasy by giving you the choices

**Edit**

 

If you want a date sim is your choice but don't invite me, if i want to play a date sim where i could choose any fetish in the basket i will play a date sim, not an RPG.

 

Anders was a Flamboyant cassanova before Heppler ruined the character (IDK who ruined Merill, but we didn't met her enough to know her preferences in Origins, so i let her pass for now) and my appologies for origin, i felt it was an unfair and pretty bad move to give straight men 2 options by forcing bisexualism on Lelianna and left everyone else with just one. I wish i had to stuck it up with Morrigan if choose male as starter so it would be more fair for everyone else. Also complained the fact that being gay means just Zevran and just because he could even do it with Dog if given the chance.

 

Dating Isabela as male only would make me uproar even more since she was Zevran like in origins... Anders was what made me mad... i was ok with Fenris

 

About Karl he was crafted in lame dragon age 2 lore so i don't take him as official, just a plothole handler. Thought in making a mod for origins, but i keep procrastianting it, that removes the male options for Lelianna to make it more lore friendly and adding the cannon wardens to it (the dalish elf martyr, the cruel queen aeduncan and good guy Cousland), Also planned on making the dalish elf a gay male instead of female so we could leave everyone with 2 options: Zevran and the only one you can romance. That or maybe just make queen aeduncan a bisexual too so everyone has 3 options and stop complaining.

Yikes.  Where do I begin......?

 

So why not give me also romanceable children in that case? Lolicon fans are a huge database and deserve respect and options too... way better if your character can **** the entire tedas even it's children just because you are like Zevran. If you want a date sim is your choice but don't invite me, if i want to play a date sim where i could choose any fetish in the basket i will play a date sim, not an RPG.

 

Why are you comparing sexuality to fetishism?  Either you don't understand sexuality or you don't understand fetishism?  Or both maybe.  But the connection that you are drawing is not similar at all. 

 

Anders was a Flamboyant cassanova before Heppler ruined the character (IDK who ruined Merill, but we didn't met her enough to know her preferences in Origins, so i let her pass for now) and my appologies for origin, i felt it was an unfair and pretty bad move to give straight men 2 options by forcing bisexualism on Lelianna and left everyone else with just one.

Also complained the fact that being gay means just Zevran and just because he could even do it with Dog if given the chance.

 

Bisexual men can be flamboyant cassanovas.  And flamboyant cassanovas can turn into moody petulant men when possessed by the spirit of Justice.  I'm not seeing an issue for that.

 

Also, why do you keep saying that Leliana was "forced" to be bisexual.  She was always bisexual from the beginning of the series.  She's a bisexual character.  Period.  I'm not understanding why you think making her lesbian is more "lore friendly"?

 

About Karl he was crafted in lame dragon age 2 lore so i don't take him as official, just a plothole handler.

 

Wait, Karl isn't "official" because he was created for Dragon Age 2?  So is Meredith not official either?  What about Feynriel?  Or The Arishok?  Or do you just use this criteria for characters that you don't like?

Are you saying 99% of video games are unfair?

 

Not sure I agree.

How ignorant of you, sir! I was recently informed I have a fetish for the female body (!). [/sarcasm]

 

I wish I was kidding about that last part.

To be perfectly fair, I think many of us would rather pretend DA2 never happened  :D

They are real in their own plane as we are in our own.

 

No, they are characters in a game, they are not at all like real people. My point is comprimises have to be made, they have to be written to fit into the story and into the game. There are limitations that come with that and these limitations do not apply to real people. I'm not actually arguing for or against anything here, I just found your comparison to be rather useless. 

 

It's a sort of extension of the realism argument. realism is all well and good but a game can never be 100% realistic and neither can the characters. 

 

 

 

What i don't want to see is the rehearsal of Simsexual characters that was DA2, i felt ubber alienated because the only heterosexual one was Varric. I would never force "Gobias Koffi" to date a girl even if i'm not into men+men relationships, I ask the same respect i'm giving, nothing more.

 

I don't really understand this argument. I don't feel alienated when I play a game full of straight people. Of course I would like to see more lgbt people in games but there is much more to a character than that. I don't really get how the  of the characters would make you feel alienated in any way.

How can sexual orientation be out of character?

 

If you see her conversations with Zevran, the fact you need to make an approach first as a man (if you are a woman she INMEDIATLY compliments your hair at +20 or so), how she talked about the Sisters in the chantry, how she felt about Marjolaine and that she keeps watching Morrigan in a way Morrigan practically screams to her "MY EYES ARE HERE! CREEP!" you could see Lelianna's interest is just women and warden.

Leliana is bisexual, as a person.

 

How is more lore-friendly to make her a lesbian?

 

That's just... such a bizarre thing to say.

I think you are making a big deal over nothing and you obviously don't know much about bisexuality. It's perfectly normal for a bisexual person to be more forward with one particular gender (not that I agree that Leliana is). Many bisexual people have a preference or are just find it easier with one particular gender. That doesn't mean they aren't bisexual.

So what if Leliana likes women more? Do you know there are bi people who will like one gender more than the other?

It is never stated that she prefers woman more than men and even if she did, who cares? Its not like she loves a male warden less.

That doesn't mean she can't be bisexual.  I have a friend that prefers women, but if things click with a man she's perfectly fine with that.  Anecdotal, but I think you're imposing your assumptions for how a character should be based on your expectations, when that's not fair because it's entirely possible that your expectations are coloured by a non-universal experience and isn't actually reflective of all situations.

 

A character like Anders doesn't bother me, by being bisexual.  It doesn't seem like character assassination to me.

 

Our games also aren't made in a cultural vacuum.  BioWare is still growing as a studio in getting more comfortable expressing some of this in a world that is still learning to be more understanding and accepting to this sort of content as well.

There was a guy, I never knew was bisexual, till one day he came out with it.  I was somewhat surprised, but at same time, realized that makes sense. Before I was told, I didnt notice though.  I know a few more female bisexuals than males that had came out of their shells that is. Couple of those female bisexuals prefer women over men, one prefers men over women, and that male preferred women over men.

 

Leliana, Anders or any others that had a stronger preference of one sex over another, doesnt surprise me and seems to be normal, going by those people that I know personally. I cant say its normal worldwide, just in the people I know specifically.

*sigh* and here we go again 
No mr ,no one ruined anders character ,you just didnt grasp the thing because its complicated .
most of Anders’ character development occurs on-screen. The only thing that happens off-screen is the merger with Justice. But even in Awakening, Anders was bothered by the treatment of mages (see also: his multiple escape attempts and the lengths he went to eliminate his phylactery and any ties to the Circle). Justice was also equally appalled by said treatment, and asked Anders why he never struck back against his oppressors. So these big glaring character traits that have people up in arms were there to begin with.
What’s the difference, then? Well, Awakening Anders was still masking much of his pain with humor. That’s something DA2 Anders does, as well, particularly in the first act. Note his quips about not liking the Wardens because they made him give up his cat (rather than the truth, that they assigned a templar to guard him just like the Circle or when he crack jokes with varric !) . As the years pass and the strain of seeing nothing change despite his manifesto, despite the Mage Underground, despite running the free clinic, Anders finds it a little harder to cling to that veneer.
The important thing is, there’s a difference between the Anders we see at the end of the game—hunched in defeat at the edge of his crate—and the one we meet at the beginning—still capable of cracking jokes to hide his torment. That’s character development which occurs over the course of DA2. It’s not a sudden fingersnap between games transforming him from a free-spirited prankster to a revolutionary. The carefree Anders was always an illusion. There was no ruining just an over-the-years-developement. 

As for Karl , no one  said he count as an official character ! he's just a backgroud plot for Anders past !! he's just there to prove than Anders isnt meant to be straight, he in fact had relationships with men (karl being totally his first true love that he confess in case you didnt have the chance to hear it ! and also the way he respond to a male hawke flirting with a bit of  ease ) .

anyways i'll leave that for you to grasp it if you want ,but one thing is certain : no one ruined anything . thats just your way of not accepting the change of an evolved character .

are you being serious here ??!! we're talking about dragon age here not some other game !! and when i said ,games are made for people to live their fantasy and have choice ,i was talking about the topic ! same sex choices !! which is something about dragon age right now ,and don't worry i know there's still choices elsewhere where you can really indulge in fetishism !!!, but as some might've pointed you out , a sexual orientation is not a fetish ! and bisexual people are not some fetish bunch of guys !!! omg i can't believe this !

They are real in their own plane as we are in our own.

About what they are doing right now I like the fact that Dorian is not avaible for girls (unlike Lelianna, who was strangely avaible for men). But also I beg for fully straight characters like Alistair and Morrigan and openly-bisexual ones like Zevran, I'm not asking for "shafts" against any individual.

What i don't want to see is the rehearsal of Simsexual characters that was DA2, i felt ubber alienated because the only heterosexual one was Varric. I would never force "Gobias Koffi" to date a girl even if i'm not into men+men relationships, I ask the same respect i'm giving, nothing more.

Speak for yourself, I want all the shafts against my inquisitor :whistle:

I have a female friend who's the opposite. She prefers men, but if she happens to click with another woman then she's more than happy to progress the relationship. As it turns out, bisexual people can have preferences in who they're attracted to just like anyone else.

As an hetero man i'm feeling alienated by this topic...

 

I actually laughed at this because I thought it was posted by a guy who gets it and was being funny/ironic/sarcastic. But then I kept reading, and saw the other stuff he posted and I realized he wasn't joking and now I'm just... I'm just staring, open-mouthed, because... WOW. o_O
