Disparity between male and female romance options

[Bella]

Females:
Piper – hot
Cait – hot
Curie – cute
Magnolia – hot

Males:
Hancock – half his face missing
MacCready – looks like a rat
Danse – ugly blubby lips
Preston – insufferable melter so what he looks like is irrelevant

It's the Internet. Also rule 34.
(Without verbal cues, no way to tell if serious or troll post.)

It wasn't meant as a negative post. Looks like a was just in the mood to give a weird comment. Sorry, if someone read that wrong. :)

None of the female options are "hot" in the vanilla game. Vanilla Piper is somewhere on the cute spectrum, I guess. The others—Cait is a junkie, Curie is a forgettable Plain Jane, and the only thing Magnolia has going for her is Lynda Carter's voice.

The males are a parade of ugly too, but I don't see this disparity you speak of. Bethesda's vanilla characters have almost never looked good. On the other hand, I think the companion personalities and side quests in Fallout 4 are some of Bethesda's best character development efforts to date, for females and males alike.

Piper is worst gril, Magnolia shouldn't even be considered a legitimate romance option because she's not a follower.

As far as looks go, there are mods on the Nexus for every companion. Various different looks. So search and pick what you want.

Romance wise.. I like Mac and Cait. Piper is ok.. when she shuts up. Curie is cute.. but is just terrible in a fight (and she doesn't want to fight anyway). Dense is fun. But it's too bad his romance is tied to the main quest (meaning you have to go far into to get to the end). Yes you can get your affinity way up with Dense (just get in and out of power armor or modify it with him as a companion) and you can have him as a mate.. but the real end happens after you are inside the Institute and discover a few things.

One of the things I hate about this game.. you are forced to do certain things. You must start the main quest, save Nick and kill Kellog for the BOS too arrive; you have to run a few quests with the RR (even if you intend to kill them later) to get the weave. Now the weave is modded already.. but still.

In Skyrim, you could ignore the dragons and the main quest completely. In fact, there a mod that turns off the main quest in Skyrim. I don't know what was on Beth's mind in this game.

But back to romance... I'd be careful with romance mods for Danse. Nick, and Deacon - since all three are tied to quests that you must complete.

That's what a story is—a sequence of events connected in some way. I'm not even sure what your criticism is here. The fact that there's some semblance of causality in the game? The fact that you have to meet people and do things to get stuff?

I guess Bethesda was thinking we experience time in a linear fashion, and the macro-scale universe seems fairly rooted in cause and effect. How silly of them, right?

I'm not saying I want to romance any of them - I never do. I was just pointing out that when it came to 'looks' the devs gave all the good ones to the female characters.
I totally disagree that Danse is handsome; when he talks his mouth looks kinda weird - that lower lip ......... but yeah, from the looks point of view, best of a bad bunch.
And as for Preston, he is the MOST irritating character in the whole game and I'd like to blow his head off, which would kinda spoil his looks.
Gage I'd go for except I didn't want to be a baddie in that DLC - I tried but just couldn't stomach it lol
Anyway, it was all a bit tongue in cheek, just saying, there is a distinct and noticeable disparity from the looks point of view.

What happened to the old males are more attracted to the visual and females are not deal ?

Hancok is sexy as hell, even being a ghoul. I always choose him.

From what I recall, in Skyrim you had to progress the main quest for dragons to turn up (much as you have to progress Fallout 4's main quest for the Brotherhood to arrive), and there were other equivalencies with regard to items and so on. The bigger problem is that Fallout 4's story tries to say more about who your character is, so progressing in it feels more restrictive, while in Skyrim your background consists of being imprisoned for some unspecified reason.

As for romance, it seems to be more a matter of opinion, but on the male side of things I've heard people directing more love towards Danse and Hancock than the other two. The female side I've heard more balanced opinions about, though Piper seems to be slightly more popular. It's not like I've taken a poll, though; it's just my impression from hearing people talk about them

the reason is specified, while crossing the border into skyrim (maybe illegally, not sure on that one though) you were caught together with a group of rebels, which caused them to think youre one of them

I can't say I remember that, but the result is basically the same, since it doesn't really define anything about who you are, or how you came to be in that circumstance.

That's unlike Fallout 4, where you have a very specific character identity tied into the main story, and progressing assumes you're involved for very specific personal reasons related to your predesigned backstory.
