Were Jaal and Vetra EVER confirmed as LIs outside of the incredibly vague "ALL the bang" and "sexytimes" twitter comments? Because both of those are pretty vague/jokey. And as much as I'd love Vetra to be an option, it's just as likely we can flirt with her without it going anywhere... like Aveline. Wow, everyone. Tons of new information. Holy crap! I'm going to wade through everything. I did want to share a quick update that might help calm some nerves here a bit. My "inside source" was kind enough to give me more information earlier since she was able to see additional romance scenes recently. I won't share all of it in the thread because I've been attacked recently in this thread so I'd rather not set myself up for more of that. I'm not here for drama. So, like before they added this new section, if you want any additional information, just PM me. The stuff that I WILL post here (in spoiler tags, even though it's not necessary) is related to m/m content and I feel bad for my gay brothers on this one, so I want to help ease a little bit of the sting. In addition to the dark skinned guy with a dark high and tight haircut and stubble that my friend saw earlier, there is a second human male LI. He is a paler skinned red headed guy with an Alistair like haircut and stubble. This scene was also a fade-to-black, which is a bummer, but it DOES mean that there will be multiple options for gay Scott.
I don't know who the guys are. I don't have names for them. But I say for sure that there are two options. So hopefully this helps take the edge off. We will still get a choice in some way, which is nice to hear. I won't bother doing any speculation because apparently that's too confusing for some people, so just take this as a leak and speculate away on your own! Sorry some people are giving you a rough time, Dave. We appreciate the info you've shared. I'm worried that some of these may be one-off instances, like... sleeping with Javik or something. I hope not. Did your friend say anything about dialogue, or was it just visuals?

God, if we're taking it this bad, can you imagine the reaction from tumblr? -shudders- Tumblr will be too busy drawing SisRyder/Jaal pron. And the iron shield excuse used will be "but there are NPC m/m romances!". So IF it happens, it's simply back to square one explaining to devs that gay guys would like at least one squadmate romance option for exactly the same reasons straight guys & women want. And hoping it's better in Andromeda 2. I read in one article that other than Ryder the Tempest has ten people aboard: six squadmates and four crewmembers. Can u link it? And is that female Krogan Kesh not on Tempest? I was under impression she was? There's definitely much more NPCs on the ship, but many of them probably unclickable like on Normandy

I'm honestly going to be surprised if the only male options for a male Ryder are humans. Maybe there hasn't been a big enough outcry from the gay community for more aliens to consensually fondle? That's my experience anyway, whether it's DA or ME, most gay/bi men seem to be more interested in humans. Such a shame... hopefully I do get a male alien to romance ughhh! Agreed! I was really hoping for a quarian guy. But I'm usually told by other gay gamers that they just want hunky human guys. C'est la vie! Yeah, this sucks. We got two possible romances for gay men and they're both humans. I think that's it for us. Again, THIS SUCKS. I'm going to cry myself to sleep, wake me up when MEA: Gayliens Are Coming (And I Do Mean Coming) DLC is released.

This is the kind of crap that's annoying m/m fans. They respond to literally everything other than questions about m/m squad mates. wtf
Haha. So obnoxious. It is this more than anything else that makes me think there are no gay or bi male squadmates. They know there will be backlash, and they want to avoid that until people have already bought the game.

I was under impression she was? There's definitely much more NPCs on the ship, but many of them probably unclickable like on Normandy es-us-yahoo.levelup.com/Xbox-One/juegos/324337/Mass-Effect-Andromeda/preview But the life of the plot would be nothing without endearing characters. BioWare games have always put a lot of emphasis on bringing together relevant partners and in the case of Andromeda Mass Effect , they are characters with a lot of identity, as much or sometimes even more than Garrus or Liara. The reason is that there is a greater development in the personality of each. To do this, the study reduced your crew; You have 6 team members for missions, additional to 4 that are stranded on the ship.

Yikes. "At least one, if not multiple options" is really not a great quote. That makes me a little nervous. Not going to lie. That implies that there is an orientation that has only one, no? Or am I reading too much into that? Why not just say "Multiple"?

What it irks me is that if they want to avoid the backlash why not to create a single squadmate m/m option? It's plain silly this situation.

vertigomez Jaal is more or less confirmed for I think female players www.ausgamers.com/news/read/3569337/you-will-find-out-if-human-angaran-genitals-are-compatible-if-you-play-mass-effect-andromedaThe journalist was asking if genitals were compatible so I assume he or she was playing Sara. The turian lady...there's a lot of rumors, but then I've been reading she's also a bit of the ship mom. So *shrug* , I'm pretty sure I've read you can flirt with her. But I will say at this point it seems you can flirt with the whole damn ship, so who knows. I've read there's some one night stand possible in the games. And again reading some articles, the scottish researcher lady who's on the ship reminded me of the secretary in ME2, pretty eager to drop her panties after a few flirt lines. So there might be some light romances with some quick *cough* fade to black action.

This teasing isn't even funny anymore. Either reveal all the options before launch, or don't reveal any of the options at all until the game launches for the player to experience. This hush hush attitude is freaking frustrating.
Had to let that out. Sorry if this post causes trouble.

With Ian's "Every orientation will have at least 1", I don't think he is talking about the entire game but just on the Tempest. So straight guys, gay guys, straight women, and lesbians will have at least 1 aboard the Tempest. Bisexual men and women obviously will have more than 1.

There are definitely M/M romances. We just don't know if they are on the squad. Personally, I'm not to fussed about the distinction, so long as the non-squad romances have equal-ish content. I don't really agree with people who claim that BW is somehow regressing for not having a bi/gay male squaddie, because, like I said, I don't get why it makes a difference if they're a squaddie or not (I know why people say they care about the difference, I don't agree with their reasoning either). I'm just going to wait and see how things actually pan out with M/M romances. I'll be very happy if Jaal turns out to be bi, but Gil Brodie has piqued my interest so ... eh . As an aside, I didn't really look forward to Bull or Dorian (STOOOPID moustache) in DA:I, Cassandra was my favourite romance and frankly I really wanted Vivienne. Yep, many examples in video games where someone wasn't necessarily travelling with the protagonist, but they ran into each other and interacted often. I'm sure it'll be something to that effect at the very least. I'm just gonna play Sara for my first playthrough at least, I just don't have faith in Bioware to actually give us a substantial crewmember romance. If that leak is right M/M probably got nixed on the squad because of time/resources. Not a massive crowd for M/M like their is with Dragon Age. Still I can't help but feel I am less valued if this all turns out to be true. Everyone else has at least 2 squadmate LI's. We couldn't even get one, it feels shitty.

Think it's pretty obvious from the scene in the Lexi vid, but I'll see about getting "subtle" bi peebee confirmation.

Info will be mined out before release for sure so everyone will be able to check that part 16th it is, then. 20-21 days to go. Tho I'd prefer a bit of heads-up about at least squadmates, because this frustrates me so much. I prefer to plan my playthrough in a meaning of "who to romance/what tone/their appearance" basics. Their marketing "plan" creates more and more issues.
