Maybe I'm naive, but I don't really think straight male gamers care that much about the existence of gay characters, whether main or side. YES, there are people who will go to forums and other social media to express their disgust over gay shit and pandering, but I want to believe that that's just a loud minority. If the gameplay and story is good, I doubt straight male gamers care.. OF COURSE I COULD BE WRONG! I remember there being an achievement for kissing a guy in some game called Bully, and supposedly straight male gamers thought that was the shittiest achievement ever and they had to make their daughters or sisters or girlfriends do that achievement, all the while praising Lollipop Chainsaw's achievement where you look up the main characters skirt and thinking it was the best shit. But either way, back on topic, GIVE ME MY FUCKING GAY MALE ALIENS HOLY SHIT BW.It's just a vocal minority, most straight male gamers either support gay characters being included or honestly don't care about it. Those who complain are just insecure men that have deeper issues to work on.

Scott and Cora are official. That's it. Devs teased about PeeBee and Vetra and Jaal seems to want Sara, while Gil liked Scott, but no official couples will be announced. The devs said to buy the Prima guide or play the game. Oh, I assumed a leak confirmed the lack of manloving squad mates or something based on this thread. Just Gil but he's not in the squad.

Nope, I'll already see myself "dawww-ing" about those two... awkwardly courting each other and stuff.

Copious amounts of uncensored male nudity and not-so-subtle male homosexual themes, and the "brogamers" still absolutely love it.

No, I agree, I think generally straight gamers don't care... at last if it's not outright "forced" on them in a game where it's not expected.

Once again the Salarian Union formally reminds that a 6th-hand account of alleged Bioware source is not a leak, it's a rumor. A leak is game files getting datamined, or Microsoft uploading demo beta by accident on Xbox Live, or EA itself leaking the Prothean companion.

Wow that'll teach me for have complications while on Dialysis , I go away for 2 days and there's 30 pages of absolute disappointment and tension to catch up on ! Anyways I'm a bit disappointed myself now that it looks like we gay guys won't be getting a squad mate to cuddle up with , but not all that surprised . I am ok with an NCP and I have some hope for Gil , I've always loved Gethin as an actor so we shall see . Any who I'll be over here in the corner lurking always lurking lol Be Great to each other now !

This is devs as they already have the game and are in control: When they start revealing stuff, even things that are flatout obvious and are confronted with the information either they themselves or a reviewer that was allowed access to this information revealed:

I know they are just people that make mistakes, but they should own up to their mistakes when they make them...It's very strange to see people speaking on behalf of a company about a product that hasn't been released yet act like this. I know the game is going to be great but the pre-release hurts

If the gameplay and story is good, I doubt straight male gamers care.. In my experience, straight male 30+ year old gamers with jobs and families and a mortgage really don't care about gay content in games. These folks probably represent the vast majority of BW players yet the company (or perhaps EA or whomever) continues to cater to the teenager trolls screaming in their parents' basements.

We've never had a male alien for male dudes Sure, but just as with straight romances, it's humans that are most universal and will appeal to most because the players are human. So male human squadmate love interest should be the priority.

Though one of the devs did say that some relationships revealed by the people playing are obviously confirmed legit, but it's up to us to be spoiled by reading about them.

Legitimately surprised BW didnt do a big reveal of all the love interests and their orientations on Valentines Day, it was a perfect opportunity, smh.
Anyways, on the topic of the last few pages, as a straight male I can confirm I give literally no fucks if another character is gay or not. Dorian from DA:I is probably my favorite BW companion of all time and he's gay. Dunno why anyone would care at all.

All I've been seeing are them evading the question and being like byne agreed Dorian was my bro! None of my business who or what people want to have sex with so long as raping doesn't happen...
