Worth a second shot I suppose. I first want to thank your team on hearing the concerns of the LGBT community with regards to BiJaal. But I'd also like to hope that you've kept an eye on this thread, which despite all expectations is the 2nd largest of the character threads. I just want to know if we can expect more Gil content ever. I know this is supposed to be the m/m patch, but some confirmation either way would do wonders.
Thank you again, and God bless.
Generally speaking I can't talk about things we are or are not doing outside of what PR has already made public, sorry!
I understand that these things are out of your hands but I hope you understand that this has left a sour taste for many of us. We were told that m/m romances couldnt be discussed and to wait and see during prerelease with the straight romances featured in trailers. We were told devs were happy with the specifics of the romance and were presented with a very disparate spread.
Many of us are very passionate about the character of Gil, he did capture hearts as I'm sure was intended but there is a feeling of being neglected.
As I said I know this isnt your call, I'm not asking you to break the rules just for your understanding of the current mood.

Can you please at least confirm that the team is aware of the issues with Gil's romance arc that are unaffected by the Jaal patch? I do appreciate that patch by the way, even if I ultimately decide not to make the option my personal canon.

People with Twitter accounts, may I suggest telling him that we need improvement with Gil romance here:
"The Light forgets. The Light forgives. In memory we remain, but in Light, we are freed. The Light will tear us. The Light will rend, mind from mind, split what has become the vile one into the repentant many.

Ah, didn't think that would work. Thanks for popping in!
You can answer questions about the current patch, though, right? Do you know if the patch fixed the Gil/Reyes polyamory bug? Where you can romance Gil and Reyes provided you commit to Reyes first? Haven't seen heads or tails of it. If it hasn't, can I suggest it be fixed in the next patch? There's also an animation bug in one of the Reyes' dances.
I advise being specific about Jill's homophobic treatment of Gil ruining the romance. I mean that is the major issue that needs mending. (at least in my mind)

I'm not sure about the Reyes dance issue, but yes, the Gil/Reyes issue you're referring to was fixed in the patch that we released yesterday.

Thanks for that! I know a lot of people were bothered by it.

I'm extremely sorry to burst into here, but does this mean the dev team is aware of the Reyes/Scott dance clipping issue? Just in case you aren't, it looks really bad and it takes place during the romance finale, i.e. the last place where you'd want your character to suddenly get possessed by Pazuzu and start reeling his head around. Here's a vid, from a redditor (https://www.reddit.com/r/masseffect/comments/6g2g72/no_spoilers_its_been_three_patches_come_on/):
I've been hoping that this would get fixed from the very first patch, but now I'm afraid it will slip all notice forever. I wish it could be looked into, if there are any more resources allotted for fixes.
Many thanks for fixing the Gil / Reyes romance flag issue!

The dance isn't fixed. Every time when I choose the logical answer (that Reyes will always have secrets and blaaah), my male Ryder gets a broken neck. :'D

The shitty Gil romance doesn't seem to be something BioWare is going to fix. I'm not really into the alien romances, though I'm happy Scott gets a male squadmate to romance. If Gil (or Reyes) had some significant content, it'd be something to draw me in. Fact of the matter is that I first came to ME in general because it's an RPG and I heard a male Shepard could romance a male squadmate. It got the full romance treatment. It's made me happy enough that I still enjoy it. This, though? The Gil romance is insulting and Reyes one is only nominally better (still too short).

If only he would stop his anti-bi patch propaganda too
Hopefully he loses his followibg and just disappears from the internet. Plastic faced and prepubescent voiced disgrace.
I won't go off about voice or appearance because there isn't much anyone can do about that without some expensive surgeries, to be honest. It is his personality to please the dude bros on YouTube. I'm ashamed to have an Andromenerds t-shirt after his comments about Jaal. He is just such a sell-out.

I know but I've run out ways to call him a cunt based on attitude and content. Got to keep the material fresh.

Whatever works! You should've stopped me from buying a t-shirt, but the hype before Andromeda had me thinking unclearly. I was a foggy mess watching YouTubers like crazy. He was one of them. Luckily, I'm out of that now and unfollow Ed him everywhere. Of course, he actually blocked me first on Twitter because I'm a mean gay and Jaal fan. Hahaha
Anyways, back to Gil. As I am now romancing Jaal, it feels quite strange to be doing the friendship path with Gil. It is quite a bit...well, awful. The Jill stuff is bad, almost seems worse when Scott isn't there to at least be dating him while that while baby talk is going on. Now, I am powerless to say anything. How is it that our only gay romance ends up with a girl?!

There's a lot of problematic issues that have been pointed out quite well by fellow brother sandalisthemaker.
It hurts to even play the game knowing that they're still there

It is really painful to not be able to stop it. No matter what I do, it doesn't seem to help. I hate to say this, but Gil's story is one of the worst I've ever encountered. It took a while for Gil to grow on me visually, and I have the fanart to thank for that. The Jill stuff is what makes it unbearable. I mean, honestly, who even thought names like Gil and Jill was okay? That's just silly and dumb.

To be fair, that is addressed directly in the game by Gil himself. I think the idea behind it was just to have a sort of cute happenstance that a person named Gil and a person named Jill would become close friends. You could have the same thing with another guy named Bill, or Will. I once had a friend that had my same birthday.
Unfortunately in this case, the intention is lost amidst all of the other terrible stuff about Jill, so it seems like a forced, cloying sweetness that instead leaves a bitter aftertaste.
I think Gil is a swell guy, and the romance does have some nice scenes that don't have anything to do with Jill.
