Is there something your new romance has that the old one didn't and you wish it did? Vice Versa! Go go go! I'm stuck between Vetra and Liam. I don't think it can top Tali just yet, because I had three games to build a relationship with her. I really appreciate how she stuck by Shepard's side through the whole trilogy. But of course, Cassandra Pentaghast 💙 trumps them all .

Is there something your new romance has that the old one didn't and you wish it did? Vice Versa! Go go go! Favorite romance from MEA is Jaal, also I haven't done it yet but I love Vetra too from what I've seen (also she's amazing). Neither of them top my favorite from the MET though, there is just something about Garrus...probably also because their relationship evolved over 3 games and sometimes instant gratification makes it a bit too easy feeling? But I don't think anything could make me feel the same as the MET did, Ryder can never be Shepard to me and nobody can ever be Garrus, and as much as I enjoy the rest of the crew of the Tempest they will never be (most of) the Normandy crew. Well I wish the Garrus romance had nudity...somebody at Bioware really doesn't want naked turians... I wish the romances in MEA had a few games to develop, they sort of have a chance if Ryder is back for the next one whenever it happens, but if they do it DA-style then idk.

I'm going to do a romance this playthrough. It's freaking happening. ...It's probably either Vetra or Reyes, with a slacker Ryder. Vetra!! Hers is soooo cute, I love those awkward sexy turians

I only romanced Reyes and Gil. I liked both characters: Reyes is playful, Gil's sweet. The romances? I could vote Reyes, because this is problem free, Gil's romance would be beautiful with more content and without that burden... This is sad, because I would like him perhaps as much Kaidan.

Gil & Suvi both deserve more, Gil more so I think because so much of his personal story revolves around...you know who. I felt like I got to know Suvi as a person better than Gil, just on the friendship paths.

I've romanced Reyes (as Sara) and Liam and really enjoyed both. Opposite characters with very different romance arcs so I can't really pick a favorite. I like Liam better as a character, partly because I feel I know him better, and the connection feels deeper because of that relationship you build over the whole game. His romance is sweet and quite satisfying once you get over the initial pacing issues and lack of actual romance content (which seems about equal to Reyes' actually - if there's more I don't think it's by much). Reyes' romance was fun and sexy, and I liked how it tied into the Kadara mission. I also thought he and Ryder had some really great chemistry. In that regard I enjoyed it a bit more than Liam's. I just wish there was actual acknowledgement of the relationship post-game and after Kadara beyond just the epilogue conversation. Liam at least sent me a couple e-mails and I got some cute dialogue when I went back to Meridian. Made the romance arc feel complete in a way that Reyes' didn't.
If I were going by just ME2, I would say Reyes and Liam's romances beat out Garrus. As romances alone, they might actually be on par with him including ME3 without the DLC, though I was more attached to Garrus at that point because I watched him and his relationship with Shepard grow over three games. DLC included, Garrus wins hands down. They do beat Kaidan, but, I've never romanced him beyond ME1. I'm actually one of the minority of players who actually prefers ME1 Kaidan to ME3 Kaidan, but did find his romance kind of lackluster to where I wasn't really interested in seeing it through when I could go for Garrus instead.

This isn't like Hainly where you can just remove something entirely. Gil's romance and baby plot make up most of his content and without that you have next to nothing. Bioware can always add more scenes I suppose and something interesting in DLCs, but its not as if they can just scrap all the bad and make an entirely story arc for Gil in the main game. I really just hope Bioware's learns from this for DA4 if nothing else.

Yeah the only thing I could really see them doing is fixing his sex scene, I don't know what they could do about she-who-must-not-be-named in the main game without it being more than they would be willing to do, but I do hope they could do him some justice in the DLCs along with Suvi and Reyes and anybody else who are suffering from a lack of overall content. I should really hope that they learned something from this fiasco as well, because the next one had better be really good or I imagine they will lose a lot of fans/players/paying customers if they didn't already this time.

I have been told to tone down shit posts and memes, so here are my take on how to improve on Gil romance (totally fixing it is not likely possible)
- Make the final kiss scene available to those who say no to the baby decision. - Fly-cam during the sex scene shows that some nudity (no dicks) is already there. So they should add some spice into the scene. I've heard that some grunt/moan sound files are already there. They can add those in too. - Fix the glitch where Gil's hands magically pass through the headphones lol. - Add additional dialogues during the first baby talk where you can disagree with the duty to procreate. - Make meeting Jill optional for pursuing Gil romance - More emails from him, especially after you died during a certain mission. (All romance in ME:A need this too imo) - Remove some SAM lines and replace them with Gil's conversation on comm, where appropriate.

Plus, the age gap between Cora (early 30's) and Scott at 22 makes her kind of a cougar. Also the mixed feelings about not being pathfinder thrown in . . . I'm going to assume that they are ALL older than Scott/Sara (with maybe Peebee as the exception, but I'm not sure how asari ages convert). Do the older male LI's get a special name too, or is that okay for men? Sorry if that sounds confrontational, but the double-standard irritates me.

No, because that is showing the interest of the younger person, whereas "cougar" connotes an older person pursuing a younger one.

No, because that is showing the interest of the younger person, whereas "cougar" connotes an older person pursuing a younger one. Some older men pursuing younger women are called "cradle-snatchers" or "cradle-robbers". About the only equivalent I can think of, to be honest. My husband is 13 years my senior and has had friends jokingly refer to him that way. I am not sure if that's also used for older men pursuing younger men.

Even if the older man isn't providing money to the younger person. And Cora is 27 years old.

With regards to the ages of the LIs, I saw it as this:
Around the same age as Ryder: Avela, Gil, Keri, Liam, PeeBee, Suvi A few years older than Ryder: Cora, Jaal, Reyes, Vetra
None of the LIs are more than a decade older than Ryder.

Pelessaria must be. If Liara at 106 was barely considered more than a child she must be around there too. Maybe a little younger given how immature peebs is.

Yeah, the writers mentioned how she is around the same age as Liara maybe a little older. She also has banter with Drack where she says her age is 'a hundred years and some change' or something like that.

Alright, back on subject! Everyone's favorite romance from MEA? Does it top your favorite romance from the trilogy? Is there something your new romance has that the old one didn't and you wish it did? Vice Versa! Go go go! My Scott remains single for now. It's no where near as amazing as my John's romance with Kaidan. I am hoping ME:A gets a sequel and Scott gets another chance at finding the right guy for him.

My question about a name for men in that situation was more rhetorical. I've seen Cora described as a cougar several times, but never the same about Jaal, Reyes, or Gil, who all read as older than Sara/Scott to me. I've never seen it in regard to Vetra either, so maybe it's just a human thing.

No, because that is showing the interest of the younger person, whereas "cougar" connotes an older person pursuing a younger one. short cw: rape-apologetic comments. criticized, but still, just a warning so nobody accidentally stumbles on it accidentally.) well old men have "trophy wives" but the fucked up idea is that men 1. are supposed to be always horny and 2 supposed to always wanting to fuck so they are defective if they dont want to or their partner is bad or whatever.. that some human men may just not want to have sex seems like some weird alien idea...ugh. fuck gender roles. Those assumptions are disgustingly fucked up because they can and get regularly abused to victim blame male victims of rape, with fucked up apologia like Le "be thankful that you had sex with such a hot woman" or " you don't fight back which means you must have wanted it" or "you are such a p*ssy, you didn't fight back, you also deserve it" its the "young child """"""""seduced"""""""" by teacher.. where people would call for execution if the teacher was male and the victim female (same with the "but erection" shitcrapwankfest... because those people either forget that morning wood is a thing or they think their penis wants to fuck their bed regularly on mornings after getting up early?) ah, nic, great topic #*sigh* yeah, fuck that double standard
