"Scott Ryder can now pursue Jaal as a romance option. There are several important reasons for this change:
Scott Ryder did not have a same-sex squadmate available as a romance option, nor could the achievement for completing three romances be achieved with only male same-sex partners. And as the angara have expressed their fluidity in how they perceive gender, it seemed only natural that Scott could have a relationship with Jaal.
However, we understand that a character’s orientation is an important part of what makes them feel real. The relationships with your crew are some of the most loved and cherished parts of our games, so we wanted to make sure we got it right. We consulted with members of the LGBTQ community, both externally and within our own studios. After carefully considering all feedback, we decided this was an important change to make, and one that made sense for Jaal, Scott, and the angara.
Our writing, editing, and animation teams worked together to ensure this change made sense for Jaal’s character, and the result is a relationship we hope feels as fulfilling and memorable for Scott as it does for Sara."
That bolded part gives me hope for you guys!

I feared they'd queerbait us hard again, but I'm happy they finally listened to the fans and saw sense. I'm thrilled that my canon Scott finally gets the romance (and hairstyle ) he deserves finally. But I hope that there are still improvements incoming for Gil and Reyes. Not everyone wants to romance Jaal or romance him every playthrough so those two need something to make their romances more fulfilling.

ok excitement aside, I'm truly worried for Reyes and Gil I mean, change lines of the bitch to make her less of a bitch, kiss scene for them if they dont want the baby in the end, and a proper sex scene for both romances, THAT NEED TO BE FIXED.

Wow great news! Definitely gives me a reason to replay the game. It is nice to see everyone here so happy. This thread has been a bit of a roller coaster but a lot of fun too.

Happy for you guys. There may be some salt from players that this affects 'not at all'. If any of that gets nasty, please PM me. Otherwise party on Oh, I suppose the hashtag #MadeJaalBi is now good to go?

If I will romance Jaal as Scott now, it means than my poor Gil will be alone? I would love that he could romance some nice guy (Reyes in DLC? lol) while not romanced by Scott..

Mixed feelings me, dunno how to feel about changing sexuality/revealing sexuality/adding sexuality to a character but at the same time this wasn't a cut/dry scenario, regardless of how people might (and will) characterize it. Would've liked expanded Reyes more BUT HAPPY GAY.

Looks like we're on our own. I wont back down though. I am a Gilmancer to the very end. I do hope they plan on fixing Gil at some point, hopefully it didn't happen yet because they are going to have to do more to rework the Jill shit and give him more content, thus taking longer than restoring stuff or slapping Scott in for a BJ in the culmination scene. Right now the only reason I want to replay the game is to romance Gil, so I do really REALLY want them to do him justice. I won't hold my breath on this count, but it'd really be nice to see SOMETHING done - I know I've said for months now, Gil's story really does need to be rebuilt from the ground up to remove Jill's involvement from it, so it would take more time than patching Jaal's bisexuality back in... But I'm really reluctant to believe it will come. Like, BioWare's always been happy to make grand gestures, which this feels like - 'here, have what should have been there from day one, aren't we magnanimous in offering you this concession?' I've been burned enough that I can only view this with a cynical lens. If genuine fixes come to Gil's romance (and Reyes's as well), I'll be over the moon. But I was surprised enough that this worked, I really can't bring myself to believe that we'll see any improvement here, that we've used up the mojo. There was a dedicated hashtag for making Jaal bi. Nothing of the sort has emerged for Gil or Reyes, which means the public outcry reaching their ears is significantly less.

The funny thing is that my GPU is broken and I can't buy a new one until August, so no Jaal for my gay Scott until then.

I have mixed feelings about this, but I have already said my piece on my problems with focusing on Jaal specifically.
Regardless, this does fix the biggest issues the game had with m/m romances. Now hopefully they learned better than to pull something like this again.
