your op is just a statement on how the Devs need to be liberated from having romance in the game.
Actually, it's not, really. But don't hurt yourself trying to read it again.
my point is that romances are optional
Which has nothing to with my original post, but go on...
and thus this entire thread is irreverent
Well, not the entire thing, but I won't nitpick, since this is technically the most accurate part of your post (and the accuracy was entirely by accident, which is hilarious.)
as you have not made a counter point to this.
Don't hurt yourself thinking too much about causality, but technically, the original post can't contain a counterpoint to the responses, since they don't exist at the time that it is made.
I did not put any words in your mouth
Unless you count responding to an argument that I didn't make. You admitted earlier in this very post that I never made the argument that you claimed that I did.
nor did you actually seem to understand what it is that I am saying.
One of us definitely has problems understanding what the other is writing. I think you may have misidentified which one of us that is, though.
you wanting to remove it entirely is unnecessary as you are only looking to take away from something a large part of the fan base really enjoys.
Please, tell me more about my motivations, what I want and what I'm saying, while still claiming not to be putting words in my mouth.
this entire topic is nothing but a joke that you are trying to act like a serious question.
For most people, things can be funny and still make a valid point at the same time (hence the existence of satire.) And I must object, sir, as I do not recall ever acting like a serious question in all of my life. If I were going to act like a question, I assure you that it would be a facetious one.
the optional romance is a corner stone of the bioware company model.
You should immediately found a romance company and show me just how much you know about romance company business models and how to make them financially successful. I'll just be over there, somewhere, waiting for that.
has remained a consent threw out their entire catalog of games.
Well, if they threw non-consensual romances around, I'm sure there would be a lot more controversy about it.

Well, that was fun.
