'I dislike or hate the game' (General feedback)

You couldn't be more wrong, Maxzero. LGBT people form about 10 to 15% of global population and it's growing each year. 

God I hate politics, and I hate all the little niches of humanity BioWare feels they all have to represent in a science fiction setting supposedly filled with multiple alien species. I don't care about whites, blacks, asians, red heads, super models, average faces, straights, gays, trans-genders etc.

They are all equally boring in light of an alien like the Thorian or Rachni.

Seriously, if we want to talk about the actual "underrepresented minority" in the Mass Effect setting it would be the alien elements. I'm about 35 hours into Andromeda's campaign and I have yet to see anything that is more than a human in a rubber mask.

I politely disagree.

And I thank you for that

Look, obviously it's an issue, otherwise critics/gamers wouldn't be talking about it.

As Link"Guess"ski aptly points out, it "is" the elephant in the room. Well, along with the bugs, animations, storytelling, scripting/dialog... Did I leave anything out?

Case in point: My Ryder walks up to Gill, and in early in the discussion replies with something I thought was VERY neutral, non-suggestive comment and immediately I'm sucked into a romantically suggestive discourse. What did I do? Backed out to the main menu, reloaded a previous save and know I'm forced (well sort of) to be a complete a**shole to Gill and avoid him, so that my Ryder isn't "triggered" into being gay. There's a written default there that should take (IMO) more layers to get to. Maybe it was just lazy writing.

Anyway, in the previous MA series I don't recall this forced/sucked in experience. With Kaidan neither male or female Shepard went there by default, just for being nice. It took several layers of intent.

At the very least there should be more options and angles, if they want to inject the current day politics of a Starbucks employee - then let the player decide which way to go. Make it so there's no writer intended right or wrong. Allow for "critical thinking". That's an effective way to broach political concepts, and be influential. If that's their intent.

Acknowledging that LGBT people exist is not "inserting politics into games". Get outta here with that.

See, my problem with this whole thing is when people make the fallacious argument that because Bioware is generally far left-leaning when it comes to politics, that means the quality of their games go down, when there's absolutely no evidence proving that this is true. You can think that bioware has bad writers, bad programmers, bad artists, bad designers, but it is a gigantic leap to think that all the people at bioware who do bad work do it because they're SJWs. Can't they just be bad at what they do? Can't there just be problems with management, time, resources, etc? Patrick Weekes is just as much of an "SJW" as anyone else in the company, and his writing is among some of the best Bioware has ever done. David Gaider has been with the company from Baldur's Gate II up until Inquisition, was the lead writer for what a lot of people consider Bioware's best modern RPG (DA:O), and was the guy who specifically called out straight male gamers for believing they were the only target audience for BW's games, a decidedly "SJW" thing to do.

"Politics" isn't why Bioware is seemingly "losing its edge". Believe it or not, some of us actually enjoy being represented in games, for once.

How is it not?

I do think Bioware is clumsy in the way they choose to do LGBT+ representation but that isn't really a numbers issue or the fact that they do it at all, which seems to be what most people complaining about this are talking about. Even if the entire crew was gay that wouldn't be "unrealistic", unlikely sure but likely and realistic are not the same thing.

There's tons of heart icons that don't lead or go anywhere.

Oh please. Learn how to play the game before you start complaining. If you ended up in a flirty conversation with a guy then that's entirely your fault.

im talking about real life it was a response to your 10% to 15% and growing lgbt population comment you made.
