Thank god. So let's all remember it well, right? Back to Vetra, then. One thing is that I tweeted the VA once saying that I hope Vetra is gay or bi, then someone responded to me and her saying "Or Straight." The VA liked my tweet and not his, even when I checked back again days later. I know that doesn't indicate much, since the VAs don't know which recorded lines end up in-game until afterwards but... Still, I thought that was worth mentioning. I still stand by odds she is bi. Hehe you know what is also funny? What if devs are misleading us all this time about Vetra and it turns out she is much older, than Ryder AND... it's her younger sister who is the romance option for Ryder?

Well, I will be mostly ok with Vetra being for MaleRyder but only if Cora is bi. And there is the crux of the issue for me, the odds of having two straight women is very low with the currently expected number of romances, so either there is a lot more that we don't know about or Vetra and Cora won't both be straight.

It's hard to say x number will be straight/bi/gay since we don't know the total number of romances or if they are even evenly distributing the squadmate ones.

No we don't need to go down that road again. Thank god. So let's all remember it well, right? Back to Vetra, then. One thing is that I tweeted the VA once saying that I hope Vetra is gay or bi, then someone responded to me and her saying "Or Straight." The VA liked my tweet and not his, even when I checked back again days later. I know that doesn't indicate much, since the VAs don't know which recorded lines end up in-game until afterwards but... Still, I thought that was worth mentioning. I'll add a bit more fuel here, besides some of the VA's liking vetra/Sara related stuff, her writer has also liked stuff as well as people who worked on the game

It would seem kind of mean of them to constantly like and post Sara/Vetra stuff if the pairing isn't able to happen. Doing all that doesn't mean Vetra is exclusive to Sara Ryder, but it would seem kind of...insensitive to do that knowing that people are so excited, idk. So I still have some faith, haha. (Please BioWare, i'm trying here)

I'm going with Cora is straight and Vetra is Bi. If she's indeed a both option (fine, I'm willing to share ) I hope there is separate content for Scott and Sara. I don't want the DA2 type same scenes and dialogues with swapped models approach (same goes for the other potential 'bi' options).

Well romances are good and all but that is not really the point for me, maybe in the end Vetra is not even one. Which again I will be totally fine with it too but help me god if this cast is worse than DA:I in therms of diversity.
Idk this is why I do not like to speculate at all about the LIs this time around, it is just frustrating thinking that maybe Mass Effect is going to disappointing me again in this field.

The marketing has definitely been off, but I feel like they wouldn't want to face backlash for doing those things. Like them not revealing the romances is pretty much because of all the drama and backlash that came as a result of the DA:I romance reveals. I figure that they want to face as little backlash as possible.

It's hard to say x number will be straight/bi/gay since we don't know the total number of romances or if they are even evenly distributing the squadmate ones. I'm sure they aren't distributing the squad mate ones, but I'm sure that the major ones were created with balance in mind. Now I don't think it's going to be perfect, especially not when you include the minor romances, but Vetra and Cora both being straight is quite the imbalance. While it's possible that they're both straight, it would suggest that one of them were added after the balance was reached (the 6 person spread that they focused on in Inquisition) and I doubt either of them were. Basically, the reasoning is that certain characters are going to be priority romances, for example Liam, Cora and Peebee were almost certainly intended to be romances from moment one, and that undoubtedly effected their roles. That leaves the remaining three and I do think that both Vetra and Jaal are among them.

Why all this secrecy? And fandom clearly does not enjoy this annoying teasing. They want to avoid drama? Oh man, that's not gonna happen. It'll be even worse after the game launches...

Romance is the icing for me, the combat/story/exploration is the cake. To me is more about representation in works of art and pop culture really, not really if I can or not romance a character. That is kinda irrelevant, it is just another mechanic of the game that should serve a good narrative. That is why I would not mind if she is not a romance, like say Vivienne. I just want some balance when it comes to the companions.

I agree, I hate it. They're going after the whole "when you try to approach people in real life, you don't know if you'll be able to have a romantic relationship in advance bla bla bla" concept...which is silly when we're talking about banging aliens. Like. WE'RE BANGING ALIENS. WHY IS REALISM A THING HERE. BioWare, please. It's not like they're not going to be data-mined once the EA Access trial goes up anyway. I find it to be silly and it just makes me anxious and frustrated tbh.

I find it to be silly and it just makes me anxious and frustrated tbh. Actually you kinda know before hand at this day and age. So the realistic thing would be having their sexual preferences or the lack of it in the oficial profiles, with name, planet of origin and so on.... They can try to spin it with anything they want but the fact remains, that this makes absolute no sense. Especially for people that are on minorities and like bioware over other companies because of that said representation. Yes it is highly frustrating when the devs and leaks kept making wholes. I will be happy with a lesbian companion and that to me is going to be the bare minimal.
