One character? Uh... Garrus. I think Garrus would make a cool M/M romance option.

Do you honestly care more about the realationship part of the game over the story and gameplay? Not saying that's a bad thing, it just doesn't seem to be a big part of the game.

It's not a question of more or less, the romances help to give an even more personal feeling to the squadmates and the story as a whole. They increase immersion and that makes the rest of the game seem richer.

For those of you who haven't seen it yet there is a cool maybe real maybe fake link in the new thread about Katsumi. If it turns out to be real, she oughta be awesome.

Honestly?  I think Mordin is the most stereotypically gay out of all squad members through both games.

'Cause of, y'know, the showtunes.























I'd hit that. :innocent:

Ack, no, I don't want NPCs sexual identities to flip flop around depending on the PCs preference. It is cool to have gay/lesbian/or bi characters but the gender flags show the characters preference and add a layer of realism to the character. 

Easy fix to that: say, if you are playing a girl, Jacob is straight, if a guy then Jacob is bi/gay.

Anywho, I have a question for everyone, if you had to pick 1 character to be bi/gay/lesbian who would it be and why? 

Why just one? There is six love interests in the game. I say there would be two same sex romances per gender.

Scarcity my friend, if you have a dollar you can only buy a coke or a pepsi, you can't buy both.  I just want to see which character is everyone's favorite from a romance perspective and by limiting options people use more logic and emotion than they would if they could have everything.

I'll take Thane! He's very similar personality wise to what I'd want, and those big eyes are just too cute. I could get lost looking into them.

Edit: And hey, they changed the DA:O registered user icon...

I would rather shoot for the stars and hit the sky. As for my choices, in order to list them I would have to put in spoilers (that everyone knows already), and in respect for the devs I will reframe from doing so. However, I would say that I would choose from the current pool of six choices, and that I think each gender should have one alien and one human same sex romance (hense why I would want two instead of one).

That's kind of the point of what she's saying. They COULD have invested differently, but they didn't.

He's... scary.

:happy: That was a very funny introduction video. He certainly seems ... intense.

Are you talking about me. Because I'm a guy. Anyway, like I said before I would want two per genders so that we could have a choice between an alien and a human.

Which seems reasonable to me.

[SirGladiator]

If I had to choose only one I would choose Tali, but I do believe that at a minimum both Tali and SuZe should be options. I would choose Tali because she's awesome, such a deep and interesting character and a fantastic voice. She really should've been a romance option the first time around, I read the only reason she wasn't is because they thought she wouldnt be that popular, which is really hilarious given that she probably turned out to be the most popular character in the first game. But I do agree, having a choice between an alien (Tali) and a human (SuZe) is the best way to go (well, second best to getting all 3, including Miranda, of course. Dare to dream ).

I saw this as well.. I dunno what to think of it, I want to lean toward it being fake... but it did look pretty cool, even though it sorta looked like something taken from tali and photoshopped to be human. hmm...

[Wakara Pezi]

Tali or SuZe.  

[Megalomaniac21]

Bioware, don't give in and make BS politically correct videogames. Please just make a game with a good story like you've always done.

Even if it happens to include characters with diverse sexual preferences!

[Arik7]

This is not about political corretness.  This is about players' enjoyment.  If you just want a story, you can watch a movie. However, taking away choices does not make a better RPG.

Why is this thread even here? There is a same-sex option in the game. Spoilers, though.

Exactly. I could give a rat's ass about politically correctness. This game pretty much sells itself on 'MAKE YOUR OWN CHOICES, BE YOUR OWN CHARACTER, CHANGE THE WORLD AROUND YOU'. All that we're asking is that we be allowed to do that. If I want to make a gay MaleShep, I should be able to do that and have options to go with that sexuality.

So invest in your gaming development company and create an RPG exactly the way you want it. Otherwise, learn to be content with what Bioware has decided to give you, or refuse to give them money (which would speak much louder than simply posting on a forum).

The consensus seems to be it doesn't count, I'm still on the fence.

[SorrowAndJoy7]

Out of curiousity since I can't seem to recall any, has bioware ever done a character that was a same sex li, but wasn't bi. Like only available through same sex romance options?

Juhani from KOTOR though much of her content was cut

No, I don't think they have.
