Jaal Ama Darav (Official Thread)

Jaal's romance is great because it's so tied in with the main game.  The rest of the squadmates have that too, though to a lesser degree. Then we have Suvi/Gil, and both of those romances should have been way more relevant than they were (with more content).  Reyes, unfortunately because of his being on Kadara, is pretty much impossible to work into the main game in a way that makes sense as things stand now.  Maybe someday that will change. 

That's one thing I do miss about DAI romances.  ALL of them felt good, I never felt like I was missing out by romancing A instead of B, and the advisor ('crew') romances were awesome.  MEA needs to step things up in the dlc in regards to characterization in general. 

I wouldn't mind the simple addition of a repeatable cuddle/kiss scene for all of the romances either. 

Both Jaal and Reyes are plot romances, so I think that's also why they are so popular. Romancing both also makes them game amazingly more dramatic and emotional too.

Reyes was made for females, so I would more like sexist than homophobic considered the romances for females often end up dead or cheating. I feel like they have a plan for him in the DLC, which is why we couldn't kill him. They could very well follow the Udina's route where regardless of your decision, Reyes would still be the ruler. 

It's more that they are more fiddly than a desktop... if I want to remove one thing, there's a 90% chance I have to remove 6 other things first 

also the fact that laptop GPUs are all integrated as standard (unlike desktops where they can be removed and switched out), I'm really hoping that it's merely a software issue, because if my graphics card itself is fried/frying it means the only other option is to get a new computer... which I have nowhere near enough money for... hell... I don't have enough money to get my laptop checked at a store! Also I highly doubt they'd do anything I haven't already tried...

But the main problem is how long I've been wrestling with this problem... it started early this month, and got better-ish... (I was able to get past CC in ME:A finally) but I only got on average 50mins gametime before a crash... now though, the entire screen locks up the second I open chrome after startup




I won't give up on it though, I CAN DO THIS

I think Reyes was always intended to bisexual. The manner in which (and how well) BW implemented the m/f routes is another matter, and another can of worms. But you're right, his death would have annoyed both sides of the romance fandom, no matter how justified it was due to player choice. I just really hate people complaining (often loudly) about consequences of choices that were perfectly avoidable.

For god's sake please no. It would make all the sense and all, and Reyes tied to the main plot would be lovely, but not in this way. He's really not the only one in Andromeda who could have done that, he sort of claims to have been nobody before Andromeda which kind of rules out a Benefactor agent (unles she was an unwilling Benefactor agent during the mutiny, perhaps), Also, I may be reading too much into that and stuff can change, but in the dance scene where he says something like "there's a lot of stuff you don't know about me" he doesn't sound especially hinting at something horrible. More like "and did you know I like dogs?" revelation than "by the way, I killed Garson, such fun..."
He could know about the murder or the Benefactor though, that would also count as important enough to keep him alive.

I honestly wouldn't complain. I don't mind characters dying as long as it's for legitimate reasons. It's way less annoying to have them survive than Lelianna reattached her head then joined the sequel. Reyes was made for females first is one of the complains which led to the fix to gay romance. When it was first release, Scott was staring at the ceiling while dancing with Reyes due to the original model Sara being shorter, the dance also looks very awkward and less fluid which use a lot of camera to cover it up, then during their first kiss, Scott sways his hip to the side the same manner as Sara, and of course Vetra calling Scott "Reyes' queen". There were a lot of fixing that went into Scott and Reyes during the patches they did later which fixed Reyes and Scott. I think it's a tradition for Bioware to make bisexual characters with the opposite gender first. With Kaidan, they are basically using all of femShep's cutscenes, cut down any feminine movements in Shepard instead of replacing it, making the scene shorter for maleShep and less intimacy, on top of Kaidan only talking about his attraction to females. Peebee's scene where she rides an invisible dick. It's always the case with Bioware whenever they make bisexual characters. This is why I see them as playsexual. I see Jaal as the FIRST bisexual male character simply because they made it with both males and females in mind. They don't just make the entire romance scenes for the opposite sex before modifying later for the same sex. Jaal reacts to males and females differently. He has different scenes and different dynamic in relationship between males and females. He acknowledges the gender of the person who he's wooing. 

How? The last game they released literally has an LI that wants to destroy the world and all those who live in it. 

They might as well, since all of them were meant to be seen that way anyway.

I know, but he is still a romance option for players who play as a female elf. 

OMG cuteness! I just did the scene with Thaldyr and after we talked about her being devoted to Akksul, and now we have more reason to save the Moshae, Jaal says "let's go" and them gives Ryder the sweetest smile. I never noticed that before!
