Why not give the option to turn off gay romance.

[dbellue1]

I don't like talking to Gale or Halsin or the Emperor. You have to outright tell them you don't like them that way and they get but hurt about it. Don't force the gay agenda on players. I am certain there are more non-gay players than gay player.

If it's not important why do you push back against everyone that just want's to have a choice?

Because everyone get's to have a choice unless they disagree with you?

you. have. a. choice.

just say no.... -_-

Stop hugging their legs.

You recruited them and kept them because you love them

That said, it checks A LOT of boxes to keep things like that so women notice nothing and men suffer, so larian had their goals in mind while being lazy and incompetent.

You don't get to speak for "men". I'm a (heterosexual) male and I have no problem at all with the male characters hitting on me--say no and move on. Just like in real life.

So weird what people fixate on.

That's not what I asked but I can understand that you would like to deflect because it's already inconvenient for you.

Now answer the question. We've already told you that:
a) This is not a choice that appeals to us it is one that appeals to you
b) You have to turn down companions multiple times throughout a play through
c) Not playing with the companions is the removal of choice not the addition of it
d) The companions still constantly push homoerotic flirtation in your face
e) The game still preaches to you and tries to lecture you

None of them are optional and will naturally happen by virtue of selecting options the characters align with and talking to them when the game pushed you to by putting exclamation marks over your head and making you go through a confirmation screen before resting.

You will lose out on their character development and lore without talking to them at these points. This is not a choice. This is punishing me for not wanting to deal with the homoerotic content.

Did you not play the game?

[dbellue1]

Crystal Sharrd, I know what you mean. That is why I do a quick save before I try out a dye. I thought a dye would look great and then it turns out not looking like you thought it would. I am still trying to get Gale's hat to look like Elminsters.

[Curfuffle]

It's weird how fixated this game is on this stuff. Feels really out of place and breaks immersion.

[PK_Thunder]

Because perverts get really upset if you say that you don't want their nonsense rubbed in your face constantly.

[dbellue1]

Crystal Sharrd, I know what you mean. I am trying to use dye's to make Gales pointy hat look like Elminsters. I haven't found the right combination yet.

at no point do you have to hug hold hands date flirt kiss have sex with or generally be romantic with ANYONE.

no dancing with wyll is not romantic. and the moment HE makes it romantic you can stop participating.

NPCS being romantic to one another is just the story. if you dont like the story then dont play the game.

yes I have over 100 hours on my current playthrough

You can ask this question a million times expecting some kind of logic or at least no hypocrisy but you will never get it because the people you are trying to confront have no logic or morality and are happy to be hypocrites.

False. You can ask a million times. It will be the same answer no matter what agenda you are pushing. Calling people fanboys, shills and stooges aren't getting under peoples skin like you want, in order to have a free reign to push your narrative.

"You can ask this question a million times expecting some kind of logic or at least no hypocrisy but you will never get it because the people you are trying to confront have no logic or morality and are happy to be hypocrites."

Such a hypocrites, that won't leave these discussion boards, like so many of the religious types attempting to convert heathens.
Letting those of us that adore this game to enjoy it, you can't have that no, you must howl that your "others"/enemies have no logic when logic is always used, but no I see more and more snowflakes melting, having no morality and are happy to be christian hypocrites because "degenerates".... the most hypocritical thing I've seen is that this game affects adult morality reminiscent of Tipper Gore.

What is the argument, the same argument.
That the choice you want, erasure, because icky.



(That is as implausible as)
The choice that I want all murder removed, because icky.

It is not that type of game. If a mature 18+ rating wasn't enough to make you pause from a Belgian gaming company, to look up the themes I'm not sure there is any game for you in this world other than tetris and pac-man.

Can we have a mod that removes these? and while we're at it I want a mod that removes the lesbian relationship between a certain selunites.
Nothing against lesbians, but we both know why its really there.

At this point its clear they are trolling. If even the existence of an option offends them, they are a lost cause.

Options are good. We shouldn't be trying to disable OPTIONS of all things. This has been mentioned, Just. Say. No.
