They won't have much of a choice if those are their only options in the game God forbid they try out more than one romance or orientation. I'm not a straight woman but that doesn't mean I can't enjoy Cullen's romance. I'm not a gay man but it doesn't preclude me from finding Dorian's romance engaging. Not if they are a gay man who lives in an oppressively heteronormative society where they might feel extreme pressure from every side to be (appear? sorry if my wording is stupid) straight. If there are gay men (or women) out there who don't mind playing as other genders or sexual orientations then good, more power to them. But if there are gay men who are tired and beat down from society telling them men have to be straight and anything else is an evil deviation and want to just see themselves in a video game and get lost in some good old escapism then who are we to judge?? It's not the same as a straight man playing as a gay man or a straight woman playing as a gay woman.

I'll seriously laugh if the people complaining about being stuck with Gil or Reyes wind up saying that either of them are their favorite romance in the game They won't have much of a choice if those are their only options in the game

you'll what? Take your business to that other AAA developer who puts out romances and space operas and the like? No I'm saying "empty threats against BioWare for not filling out your wishes in regards to squadmate romances are ridiculous" I believe the original post in question was roughly "they'd better do ___ or else" that doesn't sound like a threat of boycott or discounted purchase to me
And there is that entire interaction, in order.
There was no "or else"...there was a gif of Justin Timberlake.
Super big threat there.
And that gif wasn't even used as a threat to boycott or whatever. It was used as a reaction. A "looking into the camera like I'm on The Office"/can you believe this??? reaction. I hope my lil ole gif wasn't the reason that person thought we were threatening and boycotting. Cause if that's the case I would very much like to be excluded from this narrative.

It will be ten times worse if, if that is the case and they act surprised by the backlash that ^that would cause. ESPECIALLY given we've seen barely any of the crew at all in the marketing. If this is what's going to happen then I will be ready with my popcorn to enjoy the ensuing shitstorm. Yes that sounds very petty but I'm a very petty person

So... unless they make Vetra strictly into the ladies that means straight BroRyder gets not only 3 squadmates but ALL 3 female squadmates. But if they don't have any m/m squadmate options or any f/f squadmate options (that isn't a damn asari) then....

Also there is zero reasons for me to be happy with my options, If i'm not happy with my options. You'll have to fucking deal with that. I'm aware that it is not the same as not having options That doesn't prevent me to have my own personal experience. Okay ? Good.

I am seeing a lot of false equivalence arguments going on here. Representation for LGBT people is nowhere near the same amount as representation for straight people. So LGBT people asking for representation in a mostly straight game is ok. Straight people asking for more representation in a mostly LGBT game is nagl. And really straight people are not opressed. They are seen literally everywhere in this heteronormative society we live in. If they don't see themselves in ONE video game they just have to look literally anywhere else. Do I need to pull out the bowls of candy argument? You're missing the point in what their trying to say. Representation should be equal to both sides, trying to say that straight people don't need it, can't ask, etc is technically reversing the situation and while it make not seem that way to others doesn't change the fact that's what it is Ok well no it's not reversing the situation since there is an imbalance. There can be no reverse. For there to be an equal reverse there has to be equality in the first place. So you're saying equality = same-ness. Everyone gets the same amount. But this only really works if everyone started out from the same place with the same opportunities. Everyone obviosuly does not start out with the same opportunities seeing as how there weren't even any m/m romance options in the first two games. So say the amount of s/s romances rose in subsequent games while the amount of hetero romances stayed the same (as in no new hetero romances for a few games). Eventually there would be the same amount of romances for both sides. Then and ONLY then could the exclusion of hetero romances afterwards be seen as unfair. But until that happens (which it WON'T let's be real here.. straight ppl are never going to be on the bottom of the totem pole) there is no reverse situation. Right now it just can't be seen as bad as excluding s/s romances. It just can't. The imbalance is just too blatent and great. I hope my rambling made sense. It's 3 am and I'm stuck with a cold.

Hmm...I guess the real question is, would I mind if he didn't mind? Personally I was hoping the Angara were all about choosing one person as their mate and didn't view sex as something frivolous. As phoebe would say, Ryder would be Jaal's lobster Haha, maybe the Angara ARE all bout that monogamous life. Maybe it's just Jaal who's all "free love, man". It would be another interesting aspect of Angaran (?) culture to learn about and explore.

Are we even sure they're around the same age? (if one's way older than the other that gif is even more applicable) Could be, they are both ex-military veteran mercs between ME1+2, so they could have served together during the First Contact War... Hmmm...that's true. Still, I don't want Garrus anywhere near my (potential) waifu
