Because the OP hasn't learned how to count yet. He's waiting for the next Bioware game to teach him.

I guess you could say that learning what gay is made you gay, but not in that way.

One annoying thing about STEEEEEEVE is that he will never stop listening to that damn recording unless you go over and talk to him. Yet when you when you talk to him you can't be a proper renegade and tell him to get his act together and act like an officer or you'll throw him out the airlock. No dialogue option for that. I play as a renegade the rest of the time so why is Shepard forced into the some sensitive response?

 

And that voice recording was soap-opera level cringe. DON'T MAKE ME AN ANCHOR!

 

They really couldn't have been more obvious about the whole thing unless they put a flashing sign above his said saying "Grieving openly gay guy! Look at how progressive we are!" Bioware doesn't seem to understand subtlety.

Indeed.

Well... at least Cortez was better handled then Traynor, whose entire reason for existing it seemed was to tease M!Shep or turn teen boys on with that dumb "lesbians are hot" shower scene

It was not. That scene is never shown if you play as a male versus the scene with Cortez which is only avoidable if you avoid the cargo deck for the rest of the game.

Would you have preferred a "lesbians are fugly" scene?

 

Cortez was pretty funny though.

Stuff like STEEEEEVE, #RideTheBull, Traynor shower scene, Dorian, etc really confuses as to why people think BioWare is actually good at portraying LGBT characters.

When you combine it with U WOT M8 Sera, Miranda the Assening, Cole the Edgelord, etc to deny that there's fanservice going on is kind of crazy.

For the record I don't think all fan service is inherently bad and BioWare clearly shows that there's an audience for it, but pandering to tumblrites and tumblrinas ≠ tasteful and good representation of LGBT.

What I didn't like about the Cortez scene was he was watching while he was working. What about welding a space ship made him think "now would be a good time to watch the video". If you're gonna have a moment, then do it on your own time!!!

Obviously, but it was also really obvious that the scene was designed as T&A, the half-assed romance just made it worse, Cortez & M!Shep are treated as a relationship while Traynor & F!Shep honestly seemed more like some fling IMO, hell Cortez seemed more like a full character while Traynor hardly had any content

Fair enough. But whether or not the relationships seem real or genuine is not something I want to get into. It ends up going in circles and everyone has their preferences, so on and so forth.

Eh, I found Cortez whining about his dead spouse far less annoying than when Carth did the same thing.

Amazing how Carth embodies the worst of Kaidan and the worst of Cortex. I wanted to kill Carth more than I wanted to kill Malak.

Yeah, probably better to drop it, a random alien to lighten the mood

Tsk tsk tsk! How dare you all?! You scared the kid away! He hasn't posted a single word for hours, high-jacking his thread like that!   At least I was nice and helpful to him! 

 

He's probably posting in his other thread.

I wouldn't worry too much. He will be back with a new thread where he discovers bisexuals and calls people paranoid for not finding BioWare romances as transcendent as he does.

And we'll be around spamming it to death with our funposting.

BSN is working as intended.

I'm glad I had this opportunity, and was able to discuss and even criticize, homosexual content in a video game, without being branded homophobic. Although it wasn't a complete success given that it was insinuated a few times. Still... it's a kind of progress.
