Actually only one thing on your list is natural:  Yellow snow...  toxic waste is man made and paris hilton is half plastic


Toxic Waste is made of all natural ingredients straight from your local power plant and/or landfill. Are you saying that Uranium and garbage aren't natural?

I'll give ya the Paris Hilton one though... that one was a trick :devil:

My point being that people use "natural" like it means anything other than "existing or formed by nature"

To be honest, I never expected to see the fanbase of a Bioware game so homophobic. And this is before the expected onslaught of crass console kiddies. Lots of nasty personal opinions being aired thanks to these threads. I don't remember seeing such ugliness on the DA:O boards.

Trust me, as someone who spent a lot of time there, it was just as bad.

Sadly that doesn't seem to be the case as evidenced by these threads. :(

*sighs* This is why I play Jrpgs most of the time. Due to the immense amount of yuri/yaoi fanboys/fangirls its very rarely so homophobic there.

Or at least not as bad as what I've seen here.

There were a few "I killed Zev because he was such a ****." comments but usually people either ignored them and they weren't repeatedly posting (most likely because they're belief wasn't being reinforced and no one cared because they could persue the Zevran romance regardless of Zev being killed off in the "he's a ****!" game) 

Meh I ignored them at least. :/ I really don't remember it being that bad. But then again. That's probably because I could actually enjoy the gay romance just by playing the game. <_<

I think a little variation between the male and female romance paths for a bisexual romance option would go a long way for immersion, without costing much more.  Of course, it would be nice if the two paths were different, but it's unnecessary, and not very likely in a game with a lot of PC-NPC interaction.  As long as it's well-written, I'm happy. :)



Something like what was done with Zevran and Leliana would have been lovely. If it really bothers people, don't make either character as "in your face" as Zevran (I had no problem with it tho, easy to turn him down).

Though lets admit it. The "beware Zevran's massage." Threads were hilarious. :o

LOL sometimes threads like that make me wonder at the typical male gamer's IQ. Can't be that high.


Also speaking of butts: Honestly I never got a good view of M!Shep's butt anyways. Though the few times I got a view it looked nice. I always got a perfect view of Miranda's ridculously shaped rear though. <_< I mean its lumpy looking. Who on earth designed that thing. They need to take some lessons from FF12 Fran. Bigger is not always better you know. Yeah I know weird topic but it bothered the heck out of me because they was so many shots of it. Its not like Fran's which is great to look at (and made me a little envious to be honest.) its all..ick...I can't really put it into words. You have to see it first. :mellow:

That image comparing could be seen as provocative so I won't post it. :?

But still...maybe I was just looking at shots were she was leaning to one side to often? :?

Now that I got that off my chest. :lol:

Who do you think Bioware would be most likely to make BI if they did decide to make gay DLC?

So what exactly is the problem?



That gay people are being left our that Bioware isn't "revolutionary" or "modern" enough in their games?

Well, I fear that the "minority" argument applies here--Bioware wants to appeal to as many people as possible, and probably sees exclusively homosexual NPCs as inefficient.   <_<  Which is a pity, since I really think that a lesbian only Leliana would have been more true to her character.  :/

B-but Handheld!  No thread is so far gone that it's entirely beyond saving (imo)!  We just have to stay on topic and ignore the gloaters and trolls. :happy:

Really? I thought that as a bard she'd have to romance people of both genders. :/

Still I don't think it would have hurt to make a male version of the asari race. Fluid, sexually liberated and despite having all the physical qualities of men didn't count as such.

Please?

:(

I always took that as she'd have to seduce people of both genders.  xD  It's just that, at least to me, Leliana's backstory does not actually suggest that she likes men much beyond bardic requirements... nor does she speak terribly fondly of them.  :/  Then again, half of DA romancables don't start with an emotional investment, so... actually, you're right.  xD

As for male Asari: That.  Would.  Be.  Awesome.

Also: we really shouldn't need to shut down this thread.  It changes tones and topics a lot anyway.  There were times before worse than this, so yeah.  We shall overcome!  :D

True.

*sighs* I...apologize to anyone who I might have offended.

There.



Why were you apologising? Some of the pics were no "worse" than showing the happy faces of two males...even the insinuation of homosexuality seems to be enough to get something labelled as vulgar. Don't quite get it myself...besides, 90% of the ones complaining were Hard Trollin'...even comparing the pictures to beastiality  

Surely this says something? :wizard:

Yeah the best part of the DA romances was letting them see that despite their past and upbringing they COULD fall in love with the PC. :wub:

I know I thought Thane was going to be the male asari (just less humanoid) but...nope.

Well this is my sad face. You've seen it many times on this thread.

Strangly enough. I usually don't like overly buff/bearded guys and that's kind of hott.

:/

I'm a horrible yaoi fangirl.

Handheld agrees with the other forumite this thread has turned into an argument of little logic or concern for the forum rules.

handheld thinks if you dont like his posts then perhaps you shouldnt read them.

handheld himself wouldnt have minded this thread if Handheld didnt see 50 other threads talking about the exact same thing and one for every page to boot.

Handheld is also not spamming the thread handheld has posted no such links to make any forumites go to a site to buy wow gold or sign up for a new credit card.

:D

I support it, only in addition to hetero/xenophilic, not instead of.



There is no reason to exclude gays. It shouldn't be too resource costly to add a single gay option for each gender, hopefully as DLC.



Again, I support gay LI's in addition to, not instead of, hetero or xenophilic. There is a market for all three.

Because I thought I was making more than just the trolls uncomfortable. :(
