I think it was mentioned that crewmates will have missions associated with them, just not loyalty missions. some, but not all and we don't know which ones. the fact that they make a distinction between loyalty missions and crewmember missions implies something. i'm not sure i like it. Definitely not, I'd be surprised if we even got inquisition advisor like content, those characters were so ingrained in the story

"cool dude"- it sounds like describing someone you have no particular opinion of. especially wih all the "amazing" "great" etc. descriptors they use promoting the other characters. ok, i'm bitter. just thinking- as a crewmate, Gil probably won't have: - loyalty mission(s) - banters on the field - interjections within relevant plot points and missions perhaps bioware found some way to circumvent some of these problems, but it's highly unlikely that NPCs are suddenly on the same level of content like the squadmates, since they NEVER were before. advisors in DAI are a step in good direction but they had less content than party memebers, simply by the nature of their role. the problem here for me is that all the banters and interjections really add the flavour to the character. squadmates have constant presence and evenly distributed content throught the game, necessary to form an emotional connection. and (good) romances naturally stem from forming this connection. so no, meeting an NPC, exploring their static dialogue tree followed by prettygoodbanging is not ideal. i'd rather know all the insignificant quips, reactions etc. that really make me feel like character is a personality. i'm more than willing to eat those words if proven wrong, but so far it seems like at best we will get some phoned in reactions at very specific points like it was with steve. and that sucks. I think it was mentioned that crewmates will have missions associated with them, just not loyalty missions.

At least Gil was in the club at the Nexus, shows that all your engagements wont take place on the engineering deck. I don't know if he was there for a specific reason or the characters just move around when we dock. I'd hope for the latter. Yeah. I mean that's like at worst ME3. Which is better than nothing, but if Gil only leaves the Tempest when specific quest/dialogue points demand it, and then after a certain point he either disappears from that spot forever and goes back to his default location, or never moves the rest of the game.... it's still kind of the issue. Also, ideally, both Gil and the hypothetical f/f Suvi should both have multiple places they'd be on the Nexus, and they would have enough content to at least not revert to a single default spot the rest of the main quest. Also, they'd have specific plot points/planet situations where they might be more involved with what is going on. For example, how Steve in the Leviathan DLC was more involved on the water planet (but better). That is the only way an NPC would have near enough content to compare to a Squadie LI. The advisor LIs in DA:I were really quite good, as both were at least involved in the main plot in a couple of places. I'm hopeful they'll surprise me. Yeah even though Steve was involved in the Leviathan DLC, Traynor was completely absent. Thats really my biggest worry, that when it comes to DLC its if they're cutting costs, guess which characters aren't getting any dialogue.

Does Jaal like bears? What does Vetra think of "futch"? Has Vetra ever been a member of an all female Turian softball team? How fast can Vetra assemble an Ikea flatpack? What is Vetra's opinion on pillow queens? Does Jaal prefer the top bunk or bottom bunk. or the middle bunk

I'm still holding out hope for Jaal... If there is no squad m/m option, and everyone else is represented (or if only m/m and f/f are not) I will be pretty disappointed. That would even be a step down from ME3 (for some people, me personally in my only play-through of ME3 Kaidan was dead, so no squadie m/m). Gil might be great and all. And we might have an entire line-up of NPC romances, but if they seem too segmented from where we spend most of our time (on the field), It will bug me. Squad members are less susceptible to the compartmentalization effect where they seem to only exist when we enter their little realm of existence. I hope they find a way around that difference between squad and NPC. Edit: If they do somehow make the NPC romance equal to the hours and hours of exploring/sight seeing/space-shopping you can do with a Squad LI, I will not care.. At least Gil was in the club at the Nexus, shows that all your engagements wont take place on the engineering deck. I don't know if he was there for a specific reason or the characters just move around when we dock. I'd hope for the latter.

Is Jaal a top or a bottom? I really hope the answer is top. Unless the resemblance to a cat extends to the bathing suit area. *shudder* Well the other animal used to describe Jaal was a cobra and... its not much better

Is it wrong that I'm trying to come up with ways to weasel-word some answers out of the devs? Like...... what does Jaal think about all that facial hair. How does Vetra feel about shorter women. Sshhhh, I can dream. Does Jaal like bears? What does Vetra think of "futch"? Does Vetra trim her nails

Go tell Bioware that you want the next female crewmember romance to be straight and that LGBT women can have the human female squadmate. You know what to do. I'm imagining the youtube comments as we speak

I am still pretty sanguine about my prospects of enjoying this video game. Sorry to those who aren't and who really wanted an M/M squadmate romance. All the things I'm (mildly) worried about are unrelated to romance. Plus I really like what we know about Gil so far, blurriness aside, so it's easy for me to be optimistic and hope for Cullen/Josephine quality even with the dubious lack of promotion. Hopefully more Cullen than Josephine... I mean desk sex in space? bioware plz

So true! The anger will be real if that leak holds true.
I want to take my love interest with me when I go into battle. I don't want to have to go through multiple load screens just to verify he still exists. (that last one mainly applying to a off ship romance that is the current "main romance" rumor about the second "just as good" romance.
My main thing is... how will I convey my feelings in 140 characters or less?! Oh no salt tweeting warrants a thread of tweets!

Posts don't dissapear when someone deletes their account. They remain there and you see the "deleted account" or something note under the avatar. What probably happened is one of the mods or the admin suddenly decided to delete everything "off topic" from this thread and not from any other threads. At this point the tin foil hat not only doesn't seem like a stretch, I'm starting to think it's mandatory The Gil conspiracy deepens...

I thought Kaidan was bi, can't he get with FemShep? I've never had him alive. Most female Shepard i've seen are with Garrus. He can be with femshep ut if femshep doesnt exist and he makes no reference to liking women, can't his sexuality be player determined? I dunno sounds a tad like bi-erasure, which isn't the coolest thing.

Burying your gays I see, poor Steve. He was an okay guy, kinda forgettable tho. Gay. Singular. Kaidan Alenko is alive and well and getting Shepard booty 24/7. Preitor Gavorn's doing fine too. I thought Kaidan was bi, can't he get with FemShep? I've never had him alive. Most female Shepard i've seen are with Garrus.

Hmmm The briefing mentioned a world suitable for Turians and Quarians.
This makes me think the Quarians are on the Turian ark, and considering one of the devs said we might see Quarians depending on our choices, I think it has something to do with the Ark missing.

What age do you think Gil is? Considering Ryder is around early 20's. For Gil to be head engineer he presumably is a bit older than Scott.

Defintely doubt it, the leak suggested we aren't even gonna see his butt. I'm not expecting anything approaching full frontal on any male regardless of romancibility or orientation. Male nudity is the final frontier in that regard. But I want butts, and I am not ashamed to admit it. Oh 100%, I need Gil to be the muscle bottom I deserve after enduring the Iron Bull romance, but I'm prepared for fade to black and the classic wake up in bed shirtless scene.
