Another thing- I heard Drack is supposed to be really old. Another argument to make him not romanceable. Well, yeah, because turning 30 (or the equivalent for your species) automatically means no more sex. I don't know why the hell you're assuming that I wrote he's 30 (Krogan's 30). You're putting irrelevant words into my mouth.

So... stab me if this seems weird, but doesn't Kallo's mouth look... erm... less... salarian? Like, it looks... more human-like than usual? Maybe that's a sign? Ahem? Maybe...? I think you're right. I was staring at screenshot with him yesterday and noticed that his mouth (and his whole face) looks... well, adorable, lol. That's something that never came up to my mind in the previous ME games. Their mouths looked different, I agree. I'm secretly hoping for asexual romance.

I wouldnt be surprise after Bull, there is people that want to tap that. I have to say if Drack is a bi romance I would do a MaleRyder just for him alone. I would have said no chance on Bull either, but Weekes went out of his way to recreate the Qunari in his image with Bull and his story. I try to forget his character ever existed, he's dead anyways. But Drack is just another level, I look at Bull like I do a basketball player but Drack is a size not even comparable to human standards, Krogan make sumo wrestlers look like little children. It's like making love to Godzilla, which might fly in a JRPG but should stay the hell out of good ol Canadian made RPGS. Bull is dead for me as well Another thing- I heard Drack is supposed to be really old. Another argument to make him not romanceable. I really hope he's not a LI, because I fell like BioWare would make his romance promiscuous (BioWare: ,,omggggg he's huge and omgggg krogans have four testicles we cannot do anything else than bi/promiscious romance! This is the only thing that fits this character, just like we made Cullen straight, because we thought bisexuality didn't fit Cullen. He's a knight not some slut!'' Or maybe it was Solas bi romance that was scrapped because of this, I don't remember.). I'm just sick of stereotypes.

I prefer Bio working HARD on the game rather than marketing.
Do you realize that marketing is a separate division and artists, programmers, designers aren't a part of it? I prefer Bio and THEIR MARKETING DIVISION working HARD on the game. Right now I have no idea what their marketing is doing. This is a huge problem for me, because I don't know whether I should take a few days off or not. I need o see more gameplay first. The closer to launch, the smaller chance for me getting vacation for ME:A.

And writing a character of a different race than you (because ultimately it's a character, and race shouldn't determine who they are) is rather different from writing a romance specifically tailored toward a certain group of people when you're not that group of people. Or writing about a gay person, and instead of writing a character who happens to be gay, you're writing a gay person first and character second - which is what 'making orientation make sense for the character' implies. I mean, what if the devs said 'we almost didn't make Liam black because it didn't make sense for the character'? It would cause a huge uproar, as it should. But when they say that about LGBT people, it's apparently okay? LGBT people seem to disagree. Having LGBT people on the writing team could potentially steer them in a better direction.Does writer's orientation really matter? I hated Dorian's romance. He was a walking stereotype, yet he was written by a gay man. I still cannot understand that.

Actually, it's not him. The scene is edited to make it look that that guy is the one getting beaten up by Drack, but if you pause it, you can see that the guy that Drack is beating down has totally different hair than him. Two different people altogether. Strange. I quickly went to see it, and I believe you're right. The hair doesn't match. I wonder where he went then. Still, I highly doubt that man is Reyes.. I hope it's not him, because... well there's something in his face that makes me wanna punch him rather than romance. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Expect something around mid-February. (Shinobi is a reliable source) Well, Bioware already said that before he said this so he is not really being a source in this instance. I didn't know that. And I suppose there are other people who still don't know about whatever BW said or Shinobi's post lol. Not everyone here is lurking all the time.

All I know for sure is I hope Jaal (if he is one of the m/m options) has a happy ending. I'm still mad about the Dorian ending in Trespasser. "Love ya, but I'm leaving you. We'll skype on a crystal...later bitch!" v.v Actually Dorian's inability to ever be serious during the romance scenes was a huge turn off in general-but that's off topic so..back to business. Jaal does have some similar things about him to Garrus, but he is a lot better looking! Having lips is a must for me, and thus he won that war out of the gate. I wish I could like your post more than once. Most M/M romances in BW games were non-serious. I'm tired of this. Give me something normal, BioWare! Now i demand 2 serious romances as a compensation for Inquisition's IB and Dorian.

Scott and Jaal Scott and Reyes I love Jaal's feline eyes and Reyes' voice. I hope both of them will turn out to be great characters with interesting personality.

If someone is curious when we'll see next gameplay: sourceGood thing Feb is a short month! Also, he mentioned some big IGN article on ME:Andromeda which should be released between January and February, so I'm expecting to see it this week. Unfortunately, I don't have time to find that post (I'm at work).

I wouldn't be surprised if all the LIs were no older than their 30s (well, relative to their race's lifespan). After all, Ryder is only 22. Dear God I am playing as someone exactly 10 years younger than I am Funny thing, ME:A releases on my 22nd birthday!

TBH, I don't want a romance between Vetra and PeeBee. I have nothing against our not-romanceable squadmates starting a relationship with someone else but not our possible LI. I'll be disappointed if this is what they're going to do with PeeBee and Vetra. I had nothing against squadmates romancing each other until DA: Inquisition, where DorianxIronBull romance had better ending in final Trespasser dlc than DorianxInquisitor (my canon). That was a bit heartbreaking to be honest. Even more heartbreaking, when female players considered DorianxIB as a canon. So, yeah, I don't want this with squadmates I'm going to romance either.

This "it has to feel right" thing irks me to no end. How could it not feed into stereotypes on way or the other? In real life, there are all kinds of non-straight people, just as there are all kinds of straight people. People aren't the way they are because "it feels right", it's just random. Maybe they should just flip coins to determine squadmate sexuality or something, honestly, because it might be better than them picking themselves If I was doing the picking, I'd try to make sure each group got some diversity in terms of type of character/romance compared to previous games, because then I'd at least be doing something positive. For instance, the first thing that comes to mind is that so far there have been no gay knights in shining armour of either gender, or bi ones. And there have been quite a few games. Can we let the gay guys and girls have an Alistair or a Cullen? Maybe even a Cassandra or Aveline? Since the leaks say that Jaal is gonna be a romance option for guys, too, I'm really hoping he ends up being a knight-esque figure. From the 0.2 seconds we've seen of him, I'm getting a serious vibe from him? Which is already really different from most bi/gay men we've seen in previous games, if I'm remember correctly. Fenris was super-serious, but, definitely not a knight-in-shining-armor. Steve was... friendly, and good guy, but a non-combatant, so, not quite a knight-in-shining-armor. Also, dead husband. And if Vetra pulls through as an option for Sara, she could definitely be the Cassandra/Aveline-type character. I mean, Turians are basically the Soldier Species, ya? ( wasn't it said that pb and vetra have an interesting relationship?) ( wasn't there also something that implied poly-esque relationships?) ( i'm not saying i'm just saying.) But that's lots of "hope" and not a lot of "proof", so. Wait, leaks? What leaks? Can you give me the source?

Drack because we already had enough badass Korgans so meh. Same here. I don't know why, but every Krogan is pretty similar to me. Wrex, Grunt, Drack... same thing.

I love how the Angara men look, however I hate female design. I don't know why, but there's something in their faces that annoys me. They looks way too cartonish with these huge slanted eyes, lips and tiny noses. I bet Matt Rhodes designed them. Sadly, I never liked his cartoonish female faces. Angaran men are fine to me, because every element in their faces seems to be fine and nothing is too exaggerated.
And yes, sadly, I think that Angara are going to replace the Quarians, because of how similar they look compared to early Quarian concept. Also, legs. Maybe Quarians are scrapped for budget reasons (not enough money to bring back all Milky Way species, while they also want introduce to us new Andromeda species) and they decided to give Angara some Quarian vibe to compensate their absence? I dunno.

I seriously don't like this. Yeah, maybe finding LI on your own is fun, but I really need to know if Jaal is available for Scott, because I don't want to waste my time trying to romance squadmate who isn't available for me. I don't want to be in a situation like this (from reddit):

Jaal, bi romance for Scott and Sara (no nudity for Scott scenes) Reyes, gay romance for Scott (some partially nudity) Yeah I'm a bit disappointed, cuz I don't care about alien romances (Jaal) and Reyes will not be in the squad, so aka Steve from ME3 I wanted bi/gay human male companion Bi Jaal romance with no nudity for Scott? Did I miss some leak? Or it's just a pure speculation? Because your comment sounds like it's official.

That's not the kind of deep my Ryder wants to get in Liam But I think "deep bromance" is a hint of the voice actor that he's not romanceable but has a great friendship arc. I think Liam was conceived as a bromance for Scott and a romance for Sara since the beginning. I guess, Scott gets Reyes instead... I hope you're right, because if Reyes is gay (daveliam's leak) and Liam is bi, then Jaal is hetero. I really want gaylien romance.

She saw romance scenes with PeeBeexScott, PeeBeexSara and ScottxMysterious Hispanic/Arab guy.
