Yeah I already read through the reddit page. I guess I'll run the flashpoint through on my Inquisitor first and then just delete him after. I couldn't stand to play through anymore story content with him after this. And those people who broke up with their original romances for Theron are going to be pissed. |

We can't even talk about this on the stupid bloody forums because it's mined info. I was going to take my rage over there so you guys wouldn't have to put up with me. I think I'm just going to play some Dragon's Dogma. I have a pawn named Theron who even has his voice (even if it is some weird half British, half American accent version). He says things like "I didn't know the ocean was so close" when he's standing in it and he STILL sounds more like Theron than that guy. |

So wait, in the game the players had to fight for months on end to get gay romances-they are Fucking over the best m/m option? Seriously? I don't play that game, but that sounds like the most fucked up shit I have ever heard of. |

I don't play that game, but that sounds like the most fucked up shit I have ever heard of. Yup, one m/m option you can kill, and even if you don't chase him off he might as well not exist anyway because he barely gets any content now, and now they've gone and turned the more popular m/m choice into the traitor.
It also sounds very final so unless he pulls some bullshit on us and escapes, it sounds like we'd have to kill him at some point unless they plan to drag him being our next big enemy out forever. So well done Bioware, you fucked over both m/m options. Also You can literally kill the only gay guy you can 'flirt' with, with lava so... bury your gays/bi guys apparently. |

Having just read the spoilers, I really hope Austin gets a lot of negative feedback on this. Both for the treatment of LGBT issues and for extremely poor writing. I wonder if they're trying to self sabotage at this point, because the spoiler sounds completely nonsensical.

I think if I was a player I'd be blowing up twitter before the new content hits. Maybe it's not too late to stop that crazy train?

It's funny you say train because the flashpoint takes place on a train. Except it's not funny because *spoiler* was the tits and really the only viable option for certain players and now this character's been reduced to some Saturday morning cartoon "SURPRISE!" villain. Fuck 'em. What's sick is that I kinda wanna play SWTOR now to say goodbye and remember the good times. |

I know this is a different team than Edmonton but Bioware better amputate their carcinogenic limbs before all the noise taints with homophobia Bioware as whole. That is just awful. I'm so sorry for you guys.

I'm so sorry for you guys. it's bioware austin, they're well-known for being shitty in this direction. like, really well-known. so far with montreal being shitty (and then finally being closed) and austin still being shitty edmonton is my only hope, but with anthem... well, rip, bioware, nice knowing you for 20+ years. |

I am so upset over this. I just... Wow. All my characters have romanced You Know Who. Yet again Biowrae shows me that I shouldn't be playing games as a gay man. I am unwelcome.

After the Andromeda mess, I don't think I can handle another emotional break like this is probably going to cause. You Know Who was given to us m/m players a couple years back but only recently handed him to us as a companion and one that can be customized. Now, that's gone. For what? Some mysterious "Bioware is great at writing" bullshit. |

I'm just not okay with this at all, and I don't even play the game. I'm mad for yall. |

Again. no doubt. I'm starting to think I should just go full basement and just never play anything but MEA over and over again, cause Jaal will protect me from the rest of the shit that goes down in the world. |
