If straight men get Peebee, Vetra and Cora I'd wipe my hands and call it a day. Keep Peebee for all I care, but I'd like Vetra to be available to us bisexual gals as well. No, I don't hate the Asari. They just aren't my favorite race, whereas the Turians are #2.Reliable sources have said Vetra is bi so no worries.

(scroll, scroll, scroll...) still no actual confirmations, right? Was not that supposed to come in today with the previews of the game or something like that? No. While the embargo has been lifting, the media can only talk about what they have seen and actual romance confirmations were not among that. Plus even then there was some stuff they couldn't talk about, like how we become Pathfinder.

If straight men get Peebee, Vetra and Cora I'd wipe my hands and call it a day. They are. Cora was confirmed in trailer, multiple sources reported Vetra and Peebee flirting back at Scott. Yes, they're getting 3 squadmates and probably tons more NPC romances.

Part of me really thinks they can't be so stupid so as to get Natalie Dormer and not make her a romance option. I mean they knew what they paying for, surely. Then again, part of me remembers others times I've said "I'm sure BioWare isn't dumb enough to do x" and sure enough x was right there. Remember Zenith.

I've been a little cautious in regards to gaming news here as of late. I also got busy over the last week taking care of some RL stuff. I don't think I've seen a dev confirm that though. I didn't get my lady Krogan squadmate (as a friend, didn't want her as a LI) but I did want a lady Turian to pal around with and possibly date. I really hope that this info is correct. I love Vetra's look, especially her coloring.

I kind of wish they hadn't done that, though, since now the "we're letting you wait and see until the game" policy sounds really hypocritical.

Biofan said he is gathering all the information together, he seem to have a source saying that Jaal is only for human female. I swear to fucking god if only women get to date male aliens... They get Garrus AND Jaal? Bullshit.

So troll or serious? Already blocked, but the problem with the blocking system is that you still see other people responding to the hateful/ignorant person's original post. It's annoying.

@hana Hey, I'm not saying it would happen. I'm only saying that I wouldn't put it past them. I've been asking for Natalie Dormer to voice a LI for the last 2 1/2 years. I'll be like Peter Pan and think happy thoughts then.

I don't think the straight men's situation is at all comparable to a the gay men's position rn. From what we see right now, straight men have all three female squadmates to choose from, while gay men have no squadmates to choose from, unless they prove us wrong on that front. And, if my friend's leak is right, straight men will still have more squadmate romances than lesbians or straight women.

Preorder is officially cancelled and will stay that way until I hear otherwise. I'm having none of this BS of M/M relationships getting the shortest end of the stick once again in this series. I wasn't even planning on romancing anyone in the squad with my gay broRyder since neither Liam nor Jaal appeal to me in that way and Drack, as awesomely hilarious as that would be, never had any real chance whatsoever of being a love interest. However, it's the principle of the matter at this point...and after they made a loud and proud proclamation about "learning from [their] past mistakes", too. And sorry, but I'm especially not having this "Oh, but you can flirt with them! Granted, they'll turn you down...but at best your interest will flatter them! That's good enough for you, right?" That's how it comes off to me anyway, and it's just kicking dirt in the wound.
The main reason I'm bitching so loudly is because I have a history of ending up with egg on my face. Hopefully my curse comes to haunt me in this situation, too, when all is said and done!

Those resources used for the "no homo" scenes could have been used for adding more gay, but if they decided having a special scene to reject us was more important... Since they confirmed that we can flirt until they reject us for our gender, I hope it's just a one-line thing and not some special scene where they awkwardly turn you down like in Dragon Age: Inquisition.

Like seriously. I come back to terms like "homosexual lifestlye" being used lol. M/m seems to be the hot button issue lately, and that's to be expected when everyone has squadmate info but them and they have the NERVE to start asking questions. In related news, the info we got about Liam yesterday has given me hope he isn't straight. Bioware loves their straight guy romances to be calm and cool Kaidan, jacob, solas, blackwall, cullen etc). Liam is apparently a bit of a hot head. He's cocky, can get worked up easily, and sometimes lets his emotions get the best of him. Doesn't sound like the guy bioware usually makes straight. There's a chance! From the looks of it Jaal is more likely to be straight than Liam. Sorry to be contradictory, but one, Kaidan was Bi. Two, not entirely sure that's justified reasoning. I don't follow the logic; there's precedence, but that doesn't mean he'll be gay or bi based solely on how 'emotional' he can be. Granted, I'd love him to be bi. But still. Not including ME3 obviously. It is very justified reasoning if you look at Bioware's past romances. Most of Bioware's past "cool and calm" characters are never the lgb ones. They are usually the sassy, lively, promiscuous ones.

Was a very nice romance as well. he is a true warrior type as well. I would have loved to see another romance like that. Fenris also a warrior type. As much as BioWARE is prone to repeating itself, they do experiment.

Determining a character's sexuality based upon pre-release info and some footage is a fool's game. I watched a few predictions about DA's romances be dead wrong. Like the folks that thought that Vivienne was going to be a straight romance because she fit the "ice queen" trope much like Miranda. I can say that I hope any bisexual or gay male character that is available does have a bit of the "calm, cool and collected" demeanor. I had a lot of friends in the old Gay KISA* thread from the BioWare forums that would love to see that. *Knight In Shining ArmorIt really isn't though. We have all noticed Bioware (all companies really) tend to make their BI characters the sexually promiscuous characters, the gay characters the sassy and rebelious ones (dorian, sera), and straight female Mass Effect fans always point out how their LIs are always boring, kind dull etc. The cool and calm ones. It is very obvious Bioware kind of goes for the cliches for romances. As soon as I heard news about IB being a "sexual deviant" I knew he was bi. They did the same sexually promiscuous thing with Zevran, Leliana, etc. It's not very foolish to expect Bioware to kind of make cliche characters. Don't even get me started on Jacob's "leave you for another woman AND knock her up AND have daddy issues black guy" cliche lol
