So this is how you guys handle it? twitter.com/ladyinsanity/with_repliesDisgusting. I am really done with this thread now and I am off to enjoy the game, like a gamer should. Enjoy your salt. Yay, let's generalize again like you did before!

The images aren't working for me. Any word on which romances are nonsexual or not? I don't know what do you mean my nonsexual, but I'm pretty sure that gay romances ale only kisses (not fully visible lol) But if you don't want even some kisses etc. then I don't know.. Hanako is clamouring for an asexual romance

I am so getting drunk and high and blasting Cher music... cloaked in my LGBT pride flag right now... of course I'm not, but I really feel the need to just drown myself in LGBT stuff to feel better about myself and being gay goddamn Torchwood is very gay. Would recommend. Prince doesn't need that pain rn

Mei is one of those characters that are so fun to play as, but not play against. I feel kinda bad when I kill people with Mei cuz I know I don't deserve to feel proud of myself hahah. I know the feeling, Hanzo main here with 72 hours on him, I always feel bad when I'm shooting at an enemy and a tracer blinks in front of me, killing her instantly, I swear tracers are the easiest squishy to headshot and I always feel bad when I do it on accident. Oh baby, that's just skill. To be honest if someone just blinks right into your arrow, take it, take that as a confirmation of your amaaaazing skills! I wish I was a Hanzo main, but I main plebs like Winston, Junkrat and Mercy. Basically I can't aim hahahsdfjaskfasjfrewar. Mei is one of those characters that are so fun to play as, but not play against. I feel kinda bad when I kill people with Mei cuz I know I don't deserve to feel proud of myself hahah. The only characters more annoying than Mei is Torb with his auto aim instant turning turret with no fucking delay because fuck you and fucking Symmetra hold LMB to win. Fucking cancer the lot of them (and yes I main Symmetra. She's still cancer). Oh yeah and Roadhog with his fucking grabble that's can grab you for almost 30m away and has a hitbox the size of a fucking barn. I can deal with everyone else but fuck them. Also DVA needed to be nerfed. Not as hard as she was but yeah definitely needed a nerf. Sombra buff should be fun. Good Sombras are a nightmare to deal with. D.Va definitely needed the nerf, totally there with you. Haven't really ran into many good Sombra's to be honest but I'm QP trash. I once stealth-pushed the payload and ended the game on Gibraltar, it was AMAZING. I felt so proud. Yeah Symmetra is the queen of not feeling any satisfaction over getting kills or the PotG with her. I don't feel accomplished, I feel cheap... but I still use her on Eichenwalde point 1 on defense because that portion of the map is basically MADE for her!

Okay, so if I can't romance Jaal, do I go Reyes or Gil? Haven't met Reyes yet, but I'm leaning slightly more towards him? Not sure yet...

ok, quick thoughts. to me, the most egregious part of this is of course the dicking around of GBT men; there's an open disregard there that really is apparent. But it rankles on a world-building level as well. it was one thing in the original trilogy. setting aside the cesspool of misogyny that is the asari lore (they're the culturally dominant species, but they all work in strip clubs and are ogled and objectified by other species, that's Totally How Cultural Dominance Works) one can handwave, even while not excusing, the fact that despite quirkinesses, most species are still fundamentally pretty similar. the line is, right, that the reapers' technology that every society is based off of causes all organic milky way life to develop along similar lines? it's lazy, and not nearly developed enough to even begin to call it adequate, but you know. it's an in-text reason. it's there. but here, we're going to an entirely different galaxy. one thing i did enjoy about the original trilogy was that there had to be constant explanations for how travel was at all possible-- just our own galaxy is so. fucking. enormous. going to an entirely different galaxy is incomprehensibly far to travel. it's a scope that's hard to get your mind around. sadly, it doesn't seem the devs even tried. it makes ABSOLUTELY. NO. SENSE. for an entirely different species to a) even have a binary gender system in the first place, What Are the Odds, but have remotely-- REMOTELY similar ideas about gender roles, attraction, whatever. it makes absolutely no sense for Jaal to be Somehow only attracted to human women, because that's just how the angara Are. that is bad fucking writing. i haven't sought out too many videos on the angara in-game, but what that tells me is that there was no imagination put into their differences at all. 'they're emotionally expressive! they have unique family structures!' you're just describing factions of modern human society, and not that creatively either. it's crap, and it's crap that is apparent to me as a random straight woman with no background in gender studies. that is bad lore that '''''coincidentally''''' dicks around GBT men. it's unacceptable, or should be, if you're a Mass Effect fan or just a human being. I know of several serious gaming critics who are in the midst of writing in depth essays that explore and criticize the deeply troubling colonialist narrative of MEA, on top of its other issues, including the just downright lazy writing in other areas.

Hmm...can't think of ANY and that's just being honest. And I'm not talking about the usual F/F route most gaming companies take, still two females and guys don't mind that much. M/M romance stories in big games? lol...you will never find it. And Mislav from TW3 doesn't fucking count, that's a tragedy, not a love story. It's the same tragedy that most gay male characters face in fiction books, films, etc. The death of one lover due to the worlds 'hatred' of them while the bi/gay females are very present and alive.That's actually untrue, at least when it comes to American TV shows. Currently, both bi/gay men and bi/gay women make about 2% of all characters on television, but men make 3% of all TV deaths. Women - whole 10% of all deaths.
Source: www.vox.com/a/tv-deaths-lgbt-diversityWhat's interesting is that among that 10% of bi/gay dead female characters the majority were specifically lesbians since the story usually looks like that -- the lesbian is a minor recurring character while bisexual woman is a regular who was initially de facto straight but at one point showrunners decide to give her some female fling - aforementioned lesbian guest character. Then the fling dies, bisexual woman comes back to male lead and showrunners are congratulating themselves how progressive they are. One example is on my avatar.This was... the ugliest thing I've seen in my life. Seriously. No one can beat Jason Rothenberg when it comes to trating LGBT like trash. Compared to him BW is all honey.

It's hilarious that I told my friend that I could easily clock in 200hrs on MEA because of romances LMFAO Now? After I'm done [spoilers] with my Gil bear, MEA's dead to me After that, it's time to go back to DAI, download that bi-Cullen mod and give my gay KISA for a ride. Go DA.

Yup. Now I know why trial was locked. It follows with one of the best quests so far... and then everything goes to shit. I'm not even going to judge their plot, quests, or whatever, because this is subjective, but Havarl and all other places having exactly same wildlife Eos had?.. They haven't even tried. Filed for a refund. I guess have fun, guys. Wow it's the same wildlife? That's pathetic. Least you can get a refund I tried but nope. ME always had the same wildlife on different planets,but if MEA does the same it's suddenly unplayable?

Question? My literal last resort is mayyybe playing as Sara, but I need to know, are her animations like walking the exact same as Scott's? Really not going to bother if Sara does, and walks like a hench dude... She doesn't walk like Scott.

The colonialist thing was what I was most interested before release. I look forward to reading these pieces. I expect Kill Screen will have something good. Maybe even Film Critic Hulk will throw his hat into the ring again.

D.Va definitely needed the nerf, totally there with you. Haven't really ran into many good Sombra's to be honest but I'm QP trash. I once stealth-pushed the payload and ended the game on Gibraltar, it was AMAZING. I felt so proud. Yeah Symmetra is the queen of not feeling any satisfaction over getting kills or the PotG with her. I don't feel accomplished, I feel cheap... but I still use her on Eichenwalde point 1 on defense because that portion of the map is basically MADE for her! lmao nice. Yeah there was this Sombra in ranked my god she was just a wrecking ball. I kept getting hacked and couldn't do anything rip. Seriously I got potg as Symm because my turrets did all the work that was lulzy. Yeah I use her on that map and any map with a ceiling I can reach on the point. Place the turrets there is a good delaying tactic usually. (nothing worse than a troll sym who screws up the teleporter. Ugh.) Biotics are more fun in ME:A. I'll give it that much.
