Id have liked to have seen more Pricefield in the game tbh. still cute though!  There's going to be a bonus episode in the new game where you get to play as Max before she moved to Seattle. Not much but I'll take what I can get. |

So as a straight middle-aged male, I shouldn't think the childlike babbling as Ryder hits on Suvi early in the game is immature and not how grownups behave? Is this some sort of lesbian dating ritual in which both parties act like they are 12? I had no idea! /sarcasm

Actually its the satanic blood rituals that usually come first 
It would have probably been better imo

If only they could have been all men! However, I could never have romanced both Kaidan and Steve Cortez. Never. Yeah Kaidan is just way better then Cortez and doesn't leave any need for more attention or content. That's how I feel about Jaal thankfully. I wish you would have had that kind of content with Reyes. Reyes definitely has potential for the next game or a DLC. Maybe it is my fault that I went through Kadara very quickly, but I feel that his romance is not so evenly spread throughout the game. I also like Kaidan romance more than Steve's. I think I only tried Steve romance only once. All other playthroughs are with Kaidan. It's unfortunate that Kaidan got knocked out and did not join you until after the coup. Though I like this final confrontation during the coup though, since being nice to him paid out very well. |

I need to dig out the review thread and make my own. I know it may look like this is the only flaw I'm fixated on but that's just a product of the thread. I also can't understand how anyone who is gay or lesbian over the age of 14 can't see how childish the exchange is, given the setting, context and type of people involved beyond their sexuality. |

So...some of the best ME m/m fanfic I've read was written by straight women, and that's saying something for me to be typing this. That is, women who just love the male/male relationships. That said, the person who started this thread is a troll.

Wanting people not to troll, and censoring a group of people for not agreeing about what they say are two VERY different things. No one is saying that straight people cant express their opinions here, that would be stupid for a roleplaying game. But there are some people here who were apparently going out of their way to cause problems in this thread, despite having nothing meaningful to share and I suspect not actually playing through any of the same-sex romances, so...
Not wanting people to troll is fine but asking a straight person to shut up about LGBT romances in a video game is silly to me. I have no problem with playing a gay character in a video game nor do I have a problem doing a gay romance, I did a lesbian one in DAI and the ones I don't do I end up watching to see if I want to do it gay or not. To me telling straight people they shouldn't care about gay romances is the same as telling white people they shouldn't care about Liam's romance because he is black or gay people can't care about Cora's romance. You still haven't told me your preferred brand of tampon. |

I just often refer to this as one shining example of the bad characterizations that show up throughout the game, as it's one of the first a player will run into and it's also among the worst for me.

I also can't understand how anyone who is gay or lesbian over the age of 14 can't see how childish the exchange is, given the setting, context and type of people involved beyond their sexuality. Gee, why ARE lesbians willing to ignore bad writing (if it is bad writing), in order to engage with the one lesbian character in the game? Also, what does any of this have to do with the article, which is specifically about BioWare's handling of issues that affect gay people in real life? Suvi is never even mentioned, because her character arc has nothing to do with the real life problems encountered by lesbians. But here you are, trying to make the thread all about that. Because we all need to know that some straight dude doesn't like the way a lesbian character is written. |

I think DA did a better job than ME in regarding to this. Still, to see a male desire demon in its revealing form would be glorious! And I don't mind if they look somewhat like the male qunari in DA2. |

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Male Scott got not a single human squadmate romance, and the two sidelined NPC's he got were made from recycled custom character creator assets. Not a single one of the gay male scenes even had intimacy rivaling straight Scott Ryder's. The romances were a fraction of the duration of others.
Hell, they couldn't even bother to animate M/M romance, they just copy pasted Reyes's dance with a female template onto Scott, so Scott looks up while being taller than Reyes, and Reyes kisses through his face onto the cheek on what's supposed to be a mouth kiss.
I love these dipshit journalists who talk out of their ass.

Anyone else notice how, despite whatever you think about the quality of the game's writing overall, Bioware has improved with respect to how they write their gay romances in particular? Is Andromeda the pinnacle so far, or arguably would Inquisition come out ahead here? Curious what people think. I can only speak to Sara/Suvi since that is the only romance I have done. Is it the pinnacle? No. Not by a long shot. It was cute, and Suvi was a decent LI but the amount of romance content specifically for Suvi was really lacking and overall the romance arc felt pretty generic. Compared to a romance like Leliana from DA:O it is not even close to BW's best effort. |

Thats what I want 
). I think DA did a better job than ME in regarding to this.
