I would rather them just not have romances in this one, truth be told. I don't think it would fit terribly well in the Destiny inspired style they appear to be going for. What, you don't want to romance your ghost? Get it all dressed up, take it out to dinner on strikes?

Maybe some light flirting with mission givers would fit better than full on romance?
Of course its hard to really say much when we don't know anything about the game.

Given all the butthurt whining the romances usually induce, I wouldn't blame them for skipping them altogether. Save themselves a headache.

Which would be fine if instead we get really involved questlines. Unless it's just a good grinder. But I figure they are going to put the word count into the quests this time. The romances did run away on them in Inquisition/Andromeda so it might be good idea to clean the slate & do something different.

I'll take Laci Green. She's became oddly somewhat attractive in this last month. I can't place my finger on quite why though Not really. Hypocrites are a real downer.

No romance means they'd alienate a huge chunk of the traditional BioWare fan base. A fan base that may not even care about Destiny/Division type games. Maybe they are trying to expand their fan base beyond the traditional, to millions of other people out there that enjoy such games as Destiny etc. I mean, I highly doubt they are going to stop making games with romance in them entirely, they just may not have it in every single game going forth. It just doesn't quite mesh with a mmo shooter that can be played as a co-op.

Glad to see I'm not the only one here who don't want romances in their next game. No romance = no endless complaints everywhere about who can/can't sleep with who, especially when all you're searching for is an intelligent discussion about the game itself. If I had to choose if I had romance in my game or not, I'd go with the former, but I fully understand. I remember when some guys complained that they couldn't romance Suvi as a male.

Well, that's why I prefer either none or less and all opened to all avatars. The Inquisition/Andromeda approach imo defeats the purpose & consumes waaaay too much resources for the amount of satisfaction it delivers. IMO it's doomed to fail.

If it doesn't end up in the game, then I don't really care. A lot of us have played role playing games where there are no romance options. I'm pretty sure we can survive one game without it. Anybody who gets disappointed by that should remember that there's Dragon Age and Mass Effect if that gets anymore content.

Honestly I used to love romances, I found them super fun and a nice way to feel even more invested in MET or DA's stories. But since MEA and all the crazy discussions/complaints I read (yes, Suivi, or Cora been "too ugly" for romance, or Jaal becoming bi with a patch etc....), well, I don't know, I think I overdosed The most terrible thing was that the romance discussions/complaints were almost everywhere, even on threads not related... Made me run away from the MEA forum.

But these people take these romances way too seriously. A lot of us mostly care about the arc that comes with the romance, but those people seem to want wish fullfillment and something to masterbate to.

The passionate people of the Bioware games love them because, unlike the games that infest the stores, they have romances, feelings, and moral choices. If Anthem was not so it would not be a Bioware game but an EA game. It would be pathetic ...

It wouldn't be a BioWare game without a little hanky panky spanky. What do you think we'll get? Hub hijinks? Teammate tete-a-tetes? A little solo suit action? Taking all bets! -(_ANTHEM_)-
One possibility is this: A single player campaign will have "normal" cinematics in 3rd person while MP is only in 1st person as shown in the 1st video trailer / teaser. If this is true, there is nothing to worry about. We can have our cake and eat it too. Why do I say this? Well, the video teaser only showed us the MP co-op mode where the game design is a deliberate change from the SP campaign.
Hey, if the above is true, we may yet romance another robot/android.

"If" there's going to be romance I doubt it'll even be close to the unnecessary level that ME and DA do it at. They could easily just do it like ESO where two players get married for a small XP boost when they play together. Not a bad change of pace, though I doubt they will let you get "married" per se. Iirc there was boost in the trailer shown for "preferred partner" or something like that. The basic unit in the game is 4, so unless we get into an Expanse-like polygamy....

I will be genuinely surprised if they include romances in the same capacity you find them in DA and ME. I always got the impression the original ME team higher-ups (including Casey) were never really happy about having them in the ME trilogy, and since many of those same people are now on Anthem, and it being a new IP, I just think they might decide to go in a different direction. I'm not even sure they are going to have followers in the traditional BioWare sense, let alone romances.
