And next time maybe don't wait so long for people to get emotionally invested in characters, like I did with Vivienne, and then drop a bomb like this. Do it early so the pain is FAR less than it is now.

 

News flash: You can still like, respect, interact with and enjoy a character that isn't romanceable.

I said she was the least developed romance in ME3. I didn't consider continuations from ME2 as actual ME3 romances.

Would you say the same for Steve?

Aw too bad about Viv, but I'd love to bromance her anyway.

 

Blackwall is an interesting twist (sneakyyyyyyyy, you guys held off for so long on that info)

 

Anyway, good job dev guys! And thank you!

Ask any female fan whether or not they consider those options.

I'm sure there are fans that while may not be totally happy with what they did with Thane, still consider being faithful to him (especially with the Citadel DLC) a valid option.

As do straight females who play dwarves or qunari.

That too. 

 

Well, thanks for DA2's romances. It was nice not feeling marginalized and less worthy of being catered to, even one time ever.

Yeah, it will be missed.

What sort of logic is this?Obviously if a character isn't romancable he/she can't be liked,interacted with,and respected.

 

Do note the sarcasm.

Thanks so much to Bioware for this announcement. now I can tear myself away from the boards for a couple months so that everything is fresh in November. (or whenever the Keep is available to all)

happy to know my 1st choice is not gated: Dorian. since in RL I'm a small, blonde female & usually play as an Elf dual-wielding female, I might go for a warrior Qunari male. wrap Dori up in my muscular arms! LOL. the Role-play is on!

there will be swooping.

so they replaced inequality for straight females with inequality for males?
first only straight females get Solas and now even Blackwall? And here I was thinking that males wouldn't get screwed

after the Solas announcement .....but nope now we have two options less then straight females :blink:

thats not how you fix an issue

>Add lesbians to video games!

>These lesbians dont count because they dont fit my exact specifications and appeal to straight men too!

 

Thats ridiculous.

 

 

That's very respectful scene from ME3:

 

 

 

What's interesting is the fact that they put the resources to make that scene for a man staring at her longer and more steamy than when you get this scene while you romance her.

 

But I guess lesbians shoudln't be angry about such representation, they're adding lesbians after all! Indeed it's great for lesbians lately, there's even going to be a movie with Al Pacino focused on a lesbian!

And know I am stoked to know whether there is a reason for Cullen and Solas having racial preferences.

 

Solas might think of having children and as we know, elf genes are not dominant, might prefer females of his own race to pass on his fade-superpowers. 

 

Cullen might not like people significantly shorter or taller than him. Or he actually doesn't racegate but culturegate. Or he just finds Qunari and Dwarf unattractive. He can look at them and respect them, but it doesn't work in the bedroom. 

 

My anticipation for the game has just risen significantly. Not that it wasn't high before.

I liked DA2's system because it let me play the character I wanted to play and get the romance I wanted. Plus it annoyed Steelcan, both positives if you ask me.

Do you have anything beyond "I don't like it"?

I kind-of sort-of called this with my earlier comments that female characters potentially having access to four romance options (while everyone else has two) would be something I don't find troubling.

Super happy for berelinde, but really quite devastated for all the ladies who really wanted Vivienne.

Cullen only wants women who can plausibly roleplay as Circle mages in the bedroom.

I wonder who plays his Knight-Commander Greagoir?

Bioware... what the heck

Back down the line you stated that only races would result in inequal options, but now you're telling us that gender AND race result in the same inequality.

What kind of message are you trying to send?!

I'm crushed right now because before now I said to myself "oh the last option will be for males because Solas was tailored for females" -boy was I wrong

I knew how askew the LI table was in Mass Effect but you cant fix inequality by giving it to someone else.

And next time maybe don't wait so long for people to get emotionally invested in characters, like I did with Vivienne, and then drop a bomb like this. Do it early so the pain is FAR less than it is now.

Still reading?
I'm getting this game, and I am going to enjoy it. But the business model you're currently fielding is total crap. Bioware, you do good work, but your delivery just sucks.

 

It makes sense for there to be more male romances as there are more high-up male members of the inquisition.

 

There are 7 important men and 5 important women.

 

If there were 6 important men and 6 important women, then it starts to look more dodgy.

oh noes, people who are attracted to both genders have more options than those who are only into one gender

Do you have something against Samantha Traynor? If so, make a thread about that in the ME3 section and let this thread discuss the romances for DAI

but they are making an objective claim "Traynor's romance doesn't count as one" but using subjective reasons for it
