To the Americans on this thread - you insult every gay soldier in our armed forces every time you suggest that a gay man couldn't be a soldier. People who take ridicule every day with the intention of keeping you hatemongers free -

As for "topical" - it IS topical. Shepard is a soldier, and the stereotype by ignorant bigots is that a soldier couldn't do what Shepard does. Adding the option "could" have been more than pandering to a bunch of screaming consumers - it could have even been a statement had Bioware wanted it to be. Any art worth calling itself that - changes minds more than it dulls them.


Amen. The moment that one of the people on this forum saying gay man aren't manly signs up for the armed forces personally, then maybe we can discuss.

Im happy you only accept it when people say they are MANLY... i said the general worlds seing them as sissy... I don't, i just dont want to have backdoor humping on my PC


1) do they they ever show the sex? no.
2) do you have to? no, it's a choice.
3) I don't want to see heterosexual sex.

what's your point.

My point is i dont want the video and audio file being on my harddrive dug deep inside the ME2 folders.... Some people (like you) want to see everything that is wrong, instead of being happy that you could hump a tiny french elf in their previous release


What is the use of arguing with this person? He has no validity in anything he says, it is like trying to tell a five year old not to eat candy. You aren't gonna get anywhere ;)

He isn't fighting for any opinion, or moral ground, he is fighting for his own personal hate and fear.  Look at how he phrases.  You want to see everything that is 'wrong'.  So a male being attracted to another male is wrong in his eyes.  And everything that is right and happy is what he believes. 

So just stop responding and I know it is really hard. It truely will be, but honestly it just proves how useless an arguement it is. And if he keeps posting.... Well that just proves his intellectual level ;)

No. See everytthing that is wrong as in "OMGZ WTF LULZ!?!?!?! ICANT **** MEN IN THIS GAME!?!?!?!
And anyway.... My own fear? Im only afraid of clowns.... And hate? I got pissed at ninja mage... And some others, but i feel fine about gay people... Im just mad that people made such a big ****ing deal about the above

Yes, i guess my percentages. But I'd say 0.2% for gay ME players is most likely accurate.  There are not many gay gamers overall and far less into FPS and Sci-Fi.  Lets be honest, if we did a poll on the following features:

PVP in ME3
Melee Weapons in ME3
More Gay Relationship options in ME3
More Costumes in ME3
More Straight Relationship Options in ME3

where do you guys honestly see the gay option finishing if it was a general poll of the entire playerbase.  I imagine it would be rock bottom.

Why waste resources on something only a very small amount of people want when there are other things that could benefit everyone, including the gay market.


Why wouldn't people attracted to the same sex be interested in FPS and Sci-fi? I want you to really, really think about that.  And then I want to hear your answer. 

No harshness in tone at all in my post! I just want to hear what you have to say after answering taht question.

A: This game must have heterosexual only because for some reason despite having an option I don't want them to have one out of spite

This **** is what pisses me off. You ALREADY have an option, but out of sheer ignorance and hate you would deny me even 1. How am I suppose to support your side of the argument AT ALL?

Though I wish we would get Dev confirmation one way or another.

If I wait until ME3 and they say their isn't a MM romance I'm gonna be a sad panda.

*hugs Ninja*

I'll see if I can find any decent Japanese MM games. There should be a few RPGs. That aren't porn. :whistle:

They are.. Though the majority of people, including gamers are not gay. And that is just how it is. And people who arent gay couldn't care less about it.

Lets be honest, I have never seen the minority argue for gay exclusivity (except in an attempt to prove a supposed point), and if your honest with yourself you know thats not what you want.

On the other hand, there are people who dont want to encounter that option. For people who disagree with that behavior (not the people who do it) its nice to be able to talk to your male squad members without worrying about running into it.

I would support this if it was an option in parental settings (or something equivilent) that was off by default, but could be enabled for those who want it.

This is not to degrade those with this lifestyle choice, but to allow those who do not wish to have lifestyle choices they disagree with forced upon them.

Before you make the inevitable hetero comparison, heterosexuality is not a lifestyle choice and is not force upon you by any people, rather it is forced upon you by nature due to its necessity for the survival of the species. For this reason, removing hetero as an option is not particularly viable in any sort of common lore.


You know, there are people who don't like the idea of women fighting.  Does this mean Bioware should exclude females from combat situations every other game?  No.  And hey, if it's what it takes to convince others that both included = both winning, I'll argue for gay exclusivity.  But I shouldn't have to.  :/  What you have is a false dichotomy.  It's like the argument that neither US political party can *ever* be right on their own--that one's platform *has* to hurt the other.  Which is not true.  

But I'm with you on the parental settings bit.  I  would be happy if this was included on the setup options screen, even.  :happy:

Parental settings in a M rated game? :? Whatever as long as I could turn off being hit on by random guys with my F! Shep I'm all for it.

Actually there are many people who aren't gay who have empathy for people who are treated poorly. Just because you don't want to see Shepard make love to Thane everyone else must not want to either? You're viewpoint is just sad and is poorly thought out. Just because a majority doesn't want something, doesn't mean the minority have to be ignored and persecuted. That way of thinking only hurts you aas well because you might be in the minority someday

Bye for good now.... My point is this, LBioware didn't want it in the game because it is popular and they dont want another big deal to take care off after the **** that happened in the first game.. DA:O isnt a pop game and therefore noone god pissed when you could have "romance" with Zevron

Blacks are always reduced to the Commander Role and not the hero and die

see
Halo(Johnson died), Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2,(First person on task force 141 to die was black), Mass Effect(Anderson is going to die), etc

I just wanted to point out, I am attracted to the opposite sex Blame, and I am actually engaged ;)



But caring about how pain can effect another human is universal, and doesn't have gender, skin tone, or what sex you prefer.

Problem is that you are comparing people and I am comparing demographics. 

You as a gay person (which I have all the respect in the world for) are just as likely to be into Sci Fi, gaming and FPS as me as a straight person.

But the gay demographic has not shown itself to be as into these things as the straight demographic.  In the same way the straight demographic has not shown itself to be into fashion as much as the gay demographic, whilst I am heavily into it and you may not be.

Its about percentages.  If you do a poll of gay people and ask them how many play sci fi space shooters, then do a poll of straight people with the same question, of course you would find more people, but also probably a bigger percentage of the straight people.

Why?  Probably down to culture.  But individually, a gay person is no more or less likely to enjoy things a straight person does and vice versa.

Fine... I dont see a problem in that, if you are engaged? Congratulations. But gay people could be engaged to ;) Like i said in like 5 forum pages... I have nothing against blacks people, white people, latino people, asian people, crab people. and gay people

Why do you assume Shep can't be a gay man? :whistle:

Edit: Wasn't the woman in Resident Evil 5 a black woman?

I don't remember her dying. At least I hope she didn't she was pretty kickass and had a cute accent.
