LMAO I just watched it and every time they mention a character you get a sample of being in conversation with them and then Gil comes up with his face covered and it goes 'chat to your crew...' *skips him over* 'and even talk to the bartender to get quests!' *shows Scott in dialogue with the bartender*
This is on purpose trolling right? There's no way it can't be.

Hold up. Are you kidding or did they actually show Gil briefly but his face was covered? Yup, I added the picture to the previous post. That is simultaneously absolutely hilarious and not funny at all.

There is Gil in the night club, but he has the button icon over his face, so can't really see anything. Looks like he has a beard to me though. Hold up. Are you kidding or did they actually show Gil briefly but his face was covered?

I may have tried Liam if he's available, and I'm a little disappointed that it seems he's not, but I'm not upset. I'm still hoping there's something with Drack for lulz. Reminds me of this. May be considered nsfw ....I'll be in my bunk.

Alistair? Cuz I will never be okay after not getting Alistair with my male Warden. That pain is forever haha Alistair and Cullen, mostly. I didn't play DA2 and don't know the characters that well, but I know I would rather be single than date Fenris or Anders, so Sebastian was my theoretical Hawke's only chance, but he's straight. I enjoyed the Fenris romance when I played a mage in a rivalrymance with him. Particularly with mods that gave him body/facial hair and a skinhead. Canon be damned.

I have a really hard time tolerating any "quirky" characters. They're almost always horrible IME. That's because they tend to be over-written, try-hard caricatures. Take Dagna in DA:I. 'Oh my gosh, I'm so cute! Everything's so cute! The breach is so pretty!' GET BACK BITCH HOW MANY CORPSES ARE STUFFED IN YOUR FREEZER

To be fair to the whole 'some guy in the hold' thing, ALL the other characters mentioned in that article have been marketed and thus the writer was likely already very familiar with them. If Peebee had received no marketing (lol, as if) she might have been referred to as 'some asari chick in the science lab'. That said, it is certainly disheartening that, of the whopping two hands on people who've mentioned Gil, both have only mentioned his enthusiasm for banging dudes as his apparently only memorable trait.

Look, the important thing is that we pass as many other characters' threads as we can with no new information. Liam's is within reach. Well in that case

Well there was some minor implications from one of the superfan hands ons (Ash?) from their YouTube Q and A where they said they'd like to romance Y'all with Scott. And as they'd had a few hours play that could suggest he was receptive to m/m flirting. I'm still clinging to the Gil life raft because what the fuck are those things on Jall's head but there's some hope for Jall stans.

The whole crew, I think. I recall asking if any of the Tempest crew had new info in there and the leaker said no. First or second page of the thread if you wanna check. I'm assuming they'll all have CC faces, that's probably why they're not in it. That was my assumption. Which leads me to believe that they will be more like Cortez/Traynor as opposed to the DA:I advisors. Ah, well. We'll see. Eventually.

Considering the artbook leaked and he is nowhere to be found, it's probably the latter. I think y'all need to brace yourselves for another Cortez/Traynor situation. I hadn't heard that. Are the other crew excluded from the artbook as well, or just Gil? The whole crew, I think. I recall asking if any of the Tempest crew had new info in there and the leaker said no. First or second page of the thread if you wanna check.

I was fine having a bisexual protagonist in FO4. *shrugs.* But then again my canon Shepard was bisexual too. Well it's not just that. Before you've even left the tutorial the game has already dictated that you're an ex-soldier living the surburban dream in 'Murica with his wife and child. As someone who likes to play as close to my actual personality as an RPG will allow, that's pretty much the opposite of what I'd want my backstory to be. And it's largely the focus of the entire main story. If you don't give a fuck about your 'wife' and 'child' (sister and nephew, come through fanwank) then the main plot just does not resonate at all.

Hey, if it works for you, that's great. I just don't understand why Bethesda would allow same-sex romance in the game, but only after locking you into a different-sex marriage in the prologue. They were so close. It boggles my mind They did it so they could have an amazing, deep, personal narrative. Good job, guys.

Yeah, but enough of us evil SJWs sucking the fun from the thread. On to more important matters, like... How much chest hair does Gil have? A lot? A little? None? Maybe he has a ton, but shaves it into the shape of Ryder's face to show his undying devotion. Who knows? But it's our job to find out! Only back and shoulders should be shaved. Anything else is sacrilege.

Or if you argue against crippling wealth inequality, or outrageous political corruption or the destruction of our shared environment by psychopathic multinational corporations or if you're able to recognise that Donald Trump has classic narcissistic personality disorder you're an 'SJW' and your opinion is immediately invalidated. Even though those things having nothing to do with identity politics.

Not having any reliable and factual source is the modus operandi for people like that. Also accusing everyone else of things they do first or exclusively. And other nice stuff lol. And the "gays are just x%" is hilarious. The number gets less the more desperate they are, sometimes during the same conversation This. Especially with all the bullshit going on with the Beauty and Beast having a gay character. Can't even with Facebook right now. It makes me so mad. Straight ally, but I feel the pain when I read those stupid conservative christian bible thumping comments. "The gays are only .54636393% of the population!!! Therefore God gives us permission to be asswipes to them!! Because (insert ancient old scripture verse) but nevermind the other scripture verses!! Beastiality is also okay!! But a man kissing a man instead of shooting him?!? That makes me uncomfortable so I'm boycotting Disney! makes me PS. I really like Sheploo too. I would stop and drool during convos when a full shot of his handsome face was perfectly portraited on my screen. I also really liked his eyes. I felt so calm despite Sheploo being the badass that he is. #Dutchfever It's not so much the extremist Christians who piss me off so much as the either huge or incredibly vocal gamergate/4chan type dickheads who turn every single comment section in ANY article into leftist/'SJW' bashing.

I'm holding out hope that we'll be seeing Gil when we see Suvi. It would be insanity if they introduced every single major character except for the one LGBT guy on the crew. No one can be that tone deaf. So the fact that they confirmed that Suvi will make an appearance pre-release is good new for me, I think. Truly. If it is true that he is the only m/m romance of substance and is conveniently the only crew member absent from marketing then the only conclusion I can come to is bias. Gethin Anthony played a beloved character in a massively successful TV phenomenon. What other reason could there be for he and his character not being advertised like Dormer's and Nanjiani's? Again, nothing is 100% yet but excluding this single character that may be a gay man is just ugly. Currently flexing my twitter muscles should the worst case scenario come to past. That will be an epic dragging. media.tenor.co/images/22edf71ae304fef43c656b14ff5d8188/tenor.gif Nothing really additional to add to your comment but Madonna got literally dragged and by god I am going to use this gif.

For sure! This thread is still good for people to vent their frustrations and enjoy the bonds of our mutual gayness (even any straight peeps who join in can still embrace the gay) lolz It's funny how there's like a third of the site that whines about liberals, people being triggered, teh feminitits, etc and then there's the third that's really, really gay. Of course, everyone else is in that remaining third that isn't of either group. If by funny you mean 'makes me want to turn a large portion of the population into soylent green' then I totally agree! Also, yes, lol at those SUPER legitimate scientific statistics people pull out about the scarce percentage of gay people in the population. A fucking third of my college class were gay, with every aspect of LGBT covered, and that was not counting anyone curious, which, from all the times 'straight' men have tried to get me to 'experiment' with them, seems to be a significant amount. Sorry guys, the gays are everywhere. You might even be one of them! If you've played a Bioware game you've been exposed to our agenda, after all.

Will we see Suvi before launch?'' Yes! ''Can you show us Gil?'' We're not sure if we are going to show him or not. '''' I want him to be a surprise! '' I'm not normally one for harassing the devs but I feel like someone should copypaste this into a tweet at them so they know we can tell when shit stinks. It's just the right level of unimpressed.

Honestly, one of the interesting parts about romancing Gil with default Scott is that Scott's face model is very conservative (even a Trump supporter, at that). I wonder if the dude even knows there's gonna be so much nsfw gay fanart with his face on it. Then again, considering he's willing to face model for a company that makes games with gay romances, he might not mind. Slightly nsfw, it doesn't look like he minds given things like this. Wait, so we're playing as the pit crew?
