GalentheYoungerNah, he's a senior network engineer. He works on rotuers and such. He's just an uber nerd that loves finding stuff like that out. His default channels are Smithsonian and Discovery Science. And I'm not a fan of that modded Kaidan beard. I know it's a game and all, but facial hair can be quite coarse, especially on darker haired guys. Besides, I like seeing their face without all of that in the way. I do like a good stubble though. Bull and Anders had some decent stubble.

What's the point of a sci-fi setting if you aren't going to diddle alien dongs? There better be a gay alien. This post is the most BSN thing I've ever read. It's almost signature-worthy. I approve!

Trunkless elephants. At least they seem that way to me. But, when I saw one walking through the Citadel, it looked like his front feet were curled a bit and he was walking on his knuckles like a sloth. So maybe a Slothephant? Slothephant. I like it. I was talking to my husband about this thread, and he pointed out that scientists have determined that only mammalian creatures can grow hair. Humanoid and mammalian aren't the same thing. For example, the Asari are humanoid, but have faint scales on their skin. So unless we run into another mammalian race, we probably won't see any ailens with facial hair. It's been a while since I did biology in school, but I'm pretty sure mammal refers to any animal that gives live birth. Whales and Dolphins are classified as mammals, so I'd imagine Asari, Krogan, Turians and Quarians would be as well. I'd rather not see beards on any male LI's. I just don't like them. Stubble and short facial hair can look really good, but I don't think I've ever seen any sort of facial hair look good in a Bioware game.

No, live birth is not a requirement for mammals since we have two species of mammals on Earth who lay eggs and we have non-mammals that give live birth like some reptiles and fish. What makes an animal a mammal is that they feed their young with mammary glands, hence the name.

*Sighs* I'm kinda maybe against all odds stil holding out for a gay batarian, because I am a fool who loves to be disappointed ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Since I'm playing my broRyder as being more introverted, I'm hoping to get an LI with a contrasting personality; someone forward and confident, perhaps a little aggressive. As for species - if not batarian - then... well I still like turians and I'm really digging the Kett. I hope that our Andromedan squaddie is both one of them and an LI for male Ryders.
...Huh, i think I might have a thing for species that've been at odds with humanity.

I could be wrong, but I think that they're going to give pretty even romance options this time so hopefully that will carry over to aliens as well.

According to Merriam-Webster: Mammals are "any of a class (Mammalia) of warm-blooded higher vertebrates (as placentals, marsupials, or monotremes) that nourish their young with milk secreted by mammary glands, have the skin usually more or less covered with hair, and include humans"
So they have hair and nourish young through mammary glands as well as warm-blooded, etc.

I'm cautiously optimistic, but worried that they won't meet my unreasonably specific standards Actually, bringing up Romeo and Juliet, they said squadmates wouldn't die this time around, but there was no mention of non-squad LIs if I remember right. I wonder if BioWare will try to pull another Thane. Man that would suck.

A gay or bisexual Kett would be great, but I'm afraid that my favorite romances will be heterosexual again. I always prefer characters that turn out to be straight (Solas, Cullen, Morrigan, Tali ).

I want an alien with no facial hair . I don't really care about the human option since I know I won't be romancing one anyway but I always found a stubble to be enough.

I don't think we have any evidence to state either way if the species in ME are warm-blooded or not but my guess would be that they are. If any of them weren't warm-blooded, my guess would be the salarians and krogan, both reptilian/amphibian like and egg-layers. And hanar too, I suppose since they are invertebrates. I don't think turian females have breasts, so they would likely not be mammals since we don't have evidence that they feed their young with mammary glands. The other species it's an unknown since we don't have enough evidence. So vorcha, batarians, volus, and elcors -- no idea if they would be mammalian. Asari would almost certainly be considered mammals. The only mammalian trait that they appear to lack is fur/hair, but that can be explained away as an adaptation of some kind or by stating that they have ear hair or nose hair. Similarly, quarians seems to possess all of the traits -- hair, breasts, likely warm-blooded. So I think they are a lock for mammals. So ultimately, my guess would be that the only definite mammals are quarians, asari, and humans. A few unknown. And a few unlikely.

I'm kind of torn at this point because, while I'm hopeful for Liam, I'm not sure if he's going to my type (he seems like he might be a spikey haired, goggle-wearing anime looking guy, but maybe I'm being cynical. And we have zero evidence about what the other male look like outside of Drack. I guess I'm hoping for a good looking Andromedan?

Thats a point, but I still hope, and not against a good looking Andromedan. But don't worries, if all possibility will be disappointing, we can open a topic that " Every Gay/Bi Male LIs are Ugly"...

I feel like they'll be more than two male romances for Scott. Don't know why, since it hasn't happened before, it's just a feeling I have. And that's not including the "light" romances.
I'm betting on one squad mate (most likely Liam) and two crew members. Maybe Liam, the Amdromedan alien and one crew member, if the amdromedan isn't female exclusive.
And that's assuming the andromedan is male. I could see them being female or genderless, if the cut squadmate was male or a male looking synthetic.
I also have a feeling Reyes will be a crew LI for Sara only. Just a hunch.

Well, they say this game will have more romances than any previous Bioware game so it could certainly be possible.
