there is a lesbian option because all you "gaymers" citied that a female could be lesbian in ME1 because of liara. and no matter what codex evidence was brought to you, you wouldnt let it drop. they cratered and decided that since you could be a lesbian in one (according to the community), you should be able to be a lesbian in the second.

there was no gay sex in ME1 period, so why would there be any gay sex interests in ME2?:huh:

cerberus could have put shepard together wrong, but then you would admit being gay is a biological/genetic defect, and no homosexual will ever admit to that.

there was no thermal clips in ME1 period, so why would there be any thermal clips in ME2?



Seriously, if your Shepard was not attracted to the 2 LIs provided in ME1, he could be attacted to other LIs....

*ahem*

You do realize that sexual orientation isn't written in stone? People have come out as gay after having been married for 20 years or more, at times, because they repressed their homosexuality for social reasons. There is also such thing as bisexuality, namely attraction to both genders.



I am supporter for all possible options, and find it surprising that some are missing in ME2, especially considering that I distinctly remember a promise from Bioware shortly after ME1 came out that the sequel would carter all preferences; clearly somewhere along the line this idea was lost to space fish and hamsters. Very peculiar, all and all, considering that Dragon Age went its way to offer full-scale options in this field.



This is not a huge deal for me, personally; I'm straight male, and I prefer playing the game through both as male and female Shepards. However, I do sympathise with all who find the lack of option disturbing, and if any polls or petitions are made in regards to ME3, I'm happy to add my vote.



Pity that these threads become flamefests in five minutes each time, as people with maturity of 13-year olds flock to yap about icky gay sex. Unfortunately a mature conversation on the subject seems to be an impossible dream on open game forums. Perhaps Bioware could be as good as to add an Ignore-fuction to these forums, allowing intelligent people to filter out the noise, and concentrate on discussing with each other?

Apparently, ME2 was developed by a completely different team than DAO. That team obvisouly had different priorities, such as a fishtank, model ships, weird stripper secretary, etc....

Don't forget space hamsters.

*sings hamster dance*

Anyway, for the argument that because there weren't gay interests in the first two, it doesn't make sense that they would be in the third, is a tad ridiculous. Because, as we know, there weren't any new love interests, or even characters, introduced in the second game or anything that weren't in the first. /sarcasm.

No. Not going to happen in this game. Get used to it.

Sorry.

Don't get me wrong I want this as much as you do. But apparently the demographic that likes shooters are too immature/homophobic to deal with anything other than shallow lesbian romances. >_>


That's not cool. What happened to gay rights?


You can still be gay, just not necessarily with anyone else ^_^

You know what? I say let them have their gay-projected-on-straight fantasy so they can complain that Shep isn't gay in the right way.

Meh Gay! Shep could be in love with a civilian. Hm...that's actually a really sweet idea. And now plot bunnies form!

*facepalm* I pray this doesn't start into another Avatar, you know, when a very vocal group of the LGBT commuinty opposed the film because there were no LGBT relationships in it? Come on, play the game for the amazing story.


This is  completely different....and please, don't get the idea that ALL gay people are like that. I, too, find them annoying.

I could care less if there were gay characters in Avatar - I can't control Avatar, it's a movie. However, as part of the gaming experience, I am supposed to be able to control shepherd. The fact that we are even given a choice to pursue a romance is what is causing this issue. I can pretty much 100% guarantee you that if romance options were not available ingame, none of us would be so angry. We would simply just accept this as a game developed by mostly heterosexuals, and expect to see one or two "novelty" gays.

However, when you give people the choice to pursue something, and deliberately omit a specific group, that says something completely different. Just please - don't get the idea that we are here JUST because there are no gay characters. I just finished playing Oblivion, and there weren't any gay characters in that game (actually, maybe one, but he was killed) - you don't see the Oblivion forums filled with threads about complaints of no gay characters. And, I didn't care! The game didn't focus on romance, it was about fighting. The Mass Effect series, however, does have a romance component which is seen as essential to the whole gaming experience by many. We just want options.

Male/Male in Jade Empire.



Female/Female in KotOR



Male/Male in Dragon Age



Even the asari are described as an all female race in their Codex entry.



The list goes on.

I wish it was in this game. Dragon Age sucked IMO. I don't know about you guys, but I think that you should be able to do a lot since there are many options available. I am not a homosexual, but I do want to have every possible option available. If Mass Effect 3 is going to feature free roaming and almost endless possibilities with dialogue and customization; then I am definitely buying it.

Well Bioware states the game is all about choice, so if it's really all about choice, why not include the option? I mean alot western game creators have bragged they're better than the ones in Japan because their games are evolving to where the play can make decisions about the characters and story...really? Then prove it.

Out of curiosity who considered the Liara option in ME1 to be a lesbian relationship? Technically the species is monogendered but they're always referred to as "she" and being honest...they basically look like a female, sounds like a female and act like a female.

Well if your Shepard was attracted to Liara then she was definitely not straight to begin with.

Anybody who claims asari are somehow not females is an idiot. There was most certainly lesbian sex in ME1. What the hell else do you call a relationship between two entities that clearly have vaginas and nursable breasts?!

It's implied and very noticeable if you actually read his comment.

Okay we get it. It would be nice if BioWare included gay romances (for me it's be nicer still if they removed them all so all these "Shep is straight by default because they are only straight romances!") people would shut the hell up. Its immensely annoying.) its a simple request.



It would be nice to keep it to one thread though.
