"...and how was Bioware under any obligation to give straight female players more romance choices? The choices they made for romances in that game were for their own reasons. Who cares whether or not female players got a lesser amount of romantic choices, how is that Bioware's fault?"
^I don't necessarily agree with this statement, just using your same logic against you. We're allowed to voice opinions on what we find lacking with the game.
Well, that’s because what you’re using against me isn’t logic, nor was it ever employed by me.
What Bioware wanted to aim for was fairness, not necessarily in Inquisition, but try to make a reasonable statement about the status-quo. The only thing they
had to do was, as I said, provide the expected two options per sexual orientation, and they did that, and did it well.
The extra romances available to straight female Inquisitors have no effect on what Bioware had already decided to do with the allotted two per gender thing. This was extra development, and they saw fit to obligate themselves to, as I said, balance the status-quo a little bit.
Asymmetrical numbers aren’t a problem in and of themselves, but Mass Effect 3 had an issue in how it handled things because choices from past games were deliberately invalidated by plot: Jacob and Thane. Garrus was locked in at ME2. That’s one vs four exclusive options, and he wasn’t even human.
This is pretty elementary stuff, I don’t know why you’re choking on it.
BTW, what right do you so called "feminist" have with dictating females appearances in video games? I often hear people of your ilk complaining about cleavage, big breast, asses, revealing outfits, walking animations, etc. (as if women IRL don't have big boobs/asses or wear revealing clothes)
Oh my god, get away from me with that nonsense. If you want to look at the dictionary definition, sure, I’m a feminist, I’m for gender equality, but don’t you dare make presumptions about what I think because you can’t comprehend a female character existing for reasons other than your gaze. Get over yourself.
I’ve never once said I have a problem with female characters being overtly sexy. I’m a straight guy, I like it; I’m predictable like that. At the same time, I don’t require it in order to appreciate a woman as a person, or find her attractive. Inquisition rather casually brings up Cassandra’s underwear—she doesn’t wear any—and there’s definitely nothing wrong with the size of her breasts. She's a woman, a striking one, and the game encourages you to think about her sexuality. That you can't is no fault of the games.
What "obligation" do developers have to listen and acquiesce to you people? Please, miss me with this BS you're spewing
“You people”, that’s cute.
