[SPOILERS] are all of romanceable companions bisexuals? :: Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Game Discussions

well played, biowarObsidian

minorities must be presented as minorities. 1 or 2 bi or gay companion (like it was in new vegas) is absolutely ok, but ALL of them? it feels like another bait for social justice crusaders and unique snowflakes who plays rpg for escape from this cruel world (and obviously for chance to bang with fishboys or catlike midgets)

post from josh sawyer's tumblr-blog:

Q: Before Deadfire's release, you said that every companion's romantic interests and sexuality would be decided individually as these preferences are part of character definition. What made you change your mind?

A: I didn’t change my mind. The companions’ sexual preferences were decided by individual writers for their individual characters. If you want to know why a writer developed their companion in a certain way, that’s a question for them.

what a miserable lie

this mandatory bi- or pan- or whatever-sexuality (brutally forced by permanently offended sjw) totally ruins characters composition and makes them un-individual. strictly gay characters are much better than this stupid attempts to please everyone (everyone of the minor but far more vocal percentage of society, of course)

and this is why i hate romances in crpg (i hope at least eder isn't romanceable). poe2 can be only better wihout it. can you imagine romance with stoic or grieving mother from poe1? wait... these two were created by chris avellone, who is a professional and high-profile gamedesigner, not by former fan-fiction writers. and who, as far as i know, hates romances too

I don't, other than the funny dialogue sometimes. What's the point of romance in a crpg anyhow?

Ok.

Eder and Pallegina arent romanceable.
But that's not the cause to be calm about it. Priest girl and fish guy are anime archetypes (the character, not the class/gender combo). Who wrote them should review their works seriously or get fired.

You mean there arent annoying prople like "priest girl" that want to save people souls and is arrogant to the point of only view her religion as the right one? and there are no extravagant
guys that think they are the ♥♥♥♥? Not eveyone is stoic or super serious. Maybe you just do not like those types of characters because you find their flaws annoying. That is cool.

Also everyone being bi is as realistic as everyone being straigh and white or watever but I do not see anyone complaining about that. Or the swords being in their backs, super unrealistic. Or Magic even more realistic!

Well, i do care, if it doesn't make sense and the only reason they did it is to appease those idiotic SJWs. Crap like this was made in DA2 too, and was ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥t as well.
This sucks hard and lowers the quality of the game by a good measure.

The Badman 12 May @ 4:19am

I actually like the furry pirate, who is just as annoying as the other two. But he feels like he is the product of his life. Priest girl is such an anime school girl archetype I fail to see why she isnt already pregnant 3 time over be the time you meet her. And Fish guy personality is just weird for the setting.
"Everyone be is as realistic as everyone being straight" Wut? Straght people are the majority of the world and always will be, you can find a group of 6 straight people easier than finding the same group with half being lgbtq+. It's just math. I can count on one hand how many people over 20 I know who hasnt hooked up with or married to the opposite gender and dont feel bad about it (outside the obvious couple fight, of course)

I think you'll find that people like YOU are the "vocal minority". The rest of us don't care.

its just hilarious to me. pushing your own agenda on devs that make every single choice as far as romance goes possible, so no one feel frustrated. Defining individuality as far as pixel goes is too far stretched you nerd

Of course, now gamers are more and more accepting of SJW sexual crap so they shoved it in their games like no tomorrow.

Support indie devs and let Big devs like obsidian milk the soylent drinking beta bois and the tumblrinas
