...ah that blatant Cora and Suvi/Gil imablance. everyone else is in the same ballpark. SMH. Yeah.... Cora has 4 more flirty lines than Gil and Suvi COMBINED. 4 More!!! Which is almost as much as Gil's total! (5)!!!! *Flails* *Sobs* Yeah *cringe* Poor Gil they did him dirty.

"Crew romances have been significantly improved to feel meaningful and on a par with squad romances." "NPC romances can be just as good as squad romances."Uh-huh. Uh-huh. No. Uh yes they can. Now whether the dev puts enough effort into them to make that true is a completely different matter. They clearly didn't in this case.

I went and picked up the strategy guide while running errands, and seeing Gil's romance breakdown at the back of the book compared to everyone else's (besides Suvi who is similarly limited in content) is kind of sad. "Conversation Rounds" are listed below each character pertaining specifically to their romances. Cora has 15Peebee has 10Vetra has 10Liam has 9Jaal has 8Suvi has 6And my poor baby Gil has 5*Weeps* ...ah that blatant Cora and Suvi/Gil imablance. everyone else is in the same ballpark. SMH.

I know I don't use the first flirt because as he said she didn't even know him yet. It was just awkward. I was able to romance him just fine. ...also I can't get movie night to finish. I've bought the snacks and yep dead end. I've learned the parts of the movie night mission are gated by the main missions. You get the last part after the second to last priority mission (spoilered for mission names: So after completing Journey to Meridian but prior to Meridian: The Way Home). I beat the game tho and I still didn't get it

I think Liam is now a definite for my Sara playthrough, everytime I speak to him I leave thinking hes ridiculously adorable. YES HE IS. He's such an adorable ball of love I can't. I want to share him with everyone because it's beautiful.

Natashina : I think their face gallery upload was their solution to saving faces. It's meh compared to face codes tho. I know. Is it working yet at all? Last time I checked, it wasn't. This is super late and has already been responded to most likely but yeah it is. I even see the faces I uploaded up there. You actually don't have to be mean but if you wait for the nice rejects you have to exhaust their dialogue and never talk to the male before that. It's really dumb. It's just easier and faster to be a dick. If you talk to him before you reject them since in old BW games nice = I want to bang you he assumes you're in a relationship with one of them. But if I don't talk to Sky, could I miss some dialogues of him? I'm a dialogue-trash! Nope. Basically you can speak to him all you like until the Imperial City. Then just stop. You have to reject the girls before you go to Death Hand's fortress. After they're rejected talk to Sky and it'll be real obvious what you have to do to romance him.

I didn't play Jade Empire but I read that you have to be really mean to the girls to be gay with the only m/m LI available. I hate that You actually don't have to be mean but if you wait for the nice rejects you have to exhaust their dialogue and never talk to the male before that. It's really dumb. It's just easier and faster to be a dick. If you talk to him before you reject them since in old BW games nice = I want to bang you he assumes you're in a relationship with one of them.

On a side note, I wish Bioware would try a new IP that is an RPG but of a different genre. They used to do other RPGs like Jade Empire, so it'd be cool to see something cyberpunk or urban fantasy from them. #JadeEmpire2 Nah. They'd screw up CF.

And I just got another of Liam's scenes and I am dead from the cute. It was the perfect mix of you idiot and that's actually pretty sweet. And now that I'm thinking about it almost all his scenes are so gender neutral that I easily see them working with Scott >_> Not as simple as swapping body models this time around since they finally made the heights gender-specific. What a time to be alive. ? The heights were always gender specific no? Or was that just DA?

To add to my previous post: In my opinion, it adds to the idea that bi/lesbian women are there for the stereotypical "male gaze." Sure, let's make sure that there is no "icky" gay sex, but we're going to about go on and on about the "hot Asari banging" until the players are a little nauseated. Sure, let's make one of the bisexual ladies a horndog, but a gay/bi man on the squad? We can't have that. Give me a good goddamn break. I'm sick of having my sexuality being treated as fodder for the "male gaze" while the gay/bi men are hidden away like some dirty secret. I know they didn't mean to do this, but for fuck's sake. How about treating gay/bi men like they existed and give the bi/lesbian women a break here? Too much to ask? <adds a few more credits to her swear jar> Seriously. Thinking about how they just completely dropped the ball on this is a bit ugh. Clearly they considered making one of the squadmates for m/m because of Jaal's hot mess of code. Why the hell they thought Gil (who is awfully done.) And Reyes (who was made for females with a male bit slapped on) I mean...really? Also Peebee is my baby but I'm so very tired of the Asari space babes. So very very tired of them.

Seriously. The whole makes sense excuse is so dumb. Half the damn plot is incoherent. If they want to focus on something that has to make sense it should be that and not making sure it makes "sense" for a squaddie to be bi/gay.

Well. This romance is turning out perfect with its pacing and setup. Ignored the first flirt, didn't take the "interested in you" option, then took the flirt options when Liam was half naked with Jaal. So then later, after everything they went through on Voeld... you can say things just kind of happened when Liam and Sara both needed to hold on to something familiar and comfortable in the moment. Impulsive, but it worked well for the narrative in my mind. I also continue to find it hilarious how I can imply my Sara is a bad movie buff too, but not so sure about Liam's choice of vids for dates. I know I love his romance because of that. And it's a perfect mixture of sweetness and Liam being Liam. I just got the Eros scene And when he said he wanted her to have a happy memory of falling with him I just and the heart in the sky at the end lmao

I have one Inquisitor who went full throttle with the trust by Andraste thing. But he was a mage and clung to his faith in times of stuggle. Everyone else is either atheistic or agnostic.

So its not just me that finds the lips to be way to thick? I was trying to create a character with thin lips but irrespective of how I tweak it she still hass semi-botox lips Meanwhile I felt the lips were too thin on some presets. I have no idea why there's not a mouth/eyebrow slider like there was in every fucking game. It's so dumb.

Yep I do the same. It's all in good fun. That really doesn't make the complete lack of such any better because they're straight (NVM that you never actually get rejected by Jaal so you should be able to flirt with him there at least). Jaal is seriously broken. I'm not sure what's going on, but his slow building relationship is escalated in 2 flirts to semi-relationship (calling me dearest) and we aren't even a couple yet. Yeah rip. I even did things he hated and he still sent me that letter. XD

That's sheer idiocy. Plenty of people flirt with one another knowing full well nothing will ever happen between them. Yeah, straight guys flirt with me at work knowing I'm gay, I do it back, it doesn't go anywhere, it's never awkward, it's just friendly and humorous and mutual, I don't see how this would be a problem to do in the game ffs Yep I do the same. It's all in good fun. That's sheer idiocy. Plenty of people flirt with one another knowing full well nothing will ever happen between them. With the exception of flirting with everyone once to find out where they stand, after that the flirts are based on their orientations. That really doesn't make the complete lack of such any better (NVM that you never actually get rejected by Jaal so you should be able to flirt with him there at least). Also Scott being ugh there is exactly why this predefined garbage annoys me.

Beeeeecause Scott is boring and serious and that effectively destroys any flirtatious side of him? Unless you are referring to something else entirely. They are both straight, so Scott can't flirt with them. That's sheer idiocy. Plenty of people flirt with one another knowing full well nothing will ever happen between them.

Yeah that's it and she got the flirt and not Scott because of reasons we already know. Beeeeecause Scott is boring and serious and that effectively destroys any flirtatious side of him? Unless you are referring to something else entirely. Except for him being all happy with Peebee on his lap. Scott can flirt just fine. It's a stupid omission.

You know that Liam & Jaal scene? Well apparently Sara has a flirt option when it happens. First I can't flirt with Jaal, and now I can't even roleplay as a fully out gay gentleman who wants to be flirtatious despite being surrounded by straight men? Unless that flirt option was '' Liam specific '' I do not understand. I hope it is about flirting with Liam, because I've had it with MEA forcing me in the goddang closet or not letting me openly express my interest in the male body. Christ, this pisses me off. There's really no reason it's not there for Scott. It's pretty much a "ooh nice view."

Glad straight female players didn't get another romatragedy again Seriously, I know folks who were left depressed after Thane's romance. And the stories I've heard about Solas Thankfully yeah. Liam makes me so happy. It's just a nice laid back romance with two people that decide to just see where it goes. It's not a big grandiose I love you (that really often feels fake as hell to me. They know each other like what? Not even a year?) but it has the chance to blossom into something lasting with some work and understanding. I love those sorts of romances so hard.
