Where it was an option?










This bald nerdy guy I know who literally complains that the new alien movies aren't loyal to the lore of the comic books was giving me grief because I've played as gay and/or female characters before in RPGs.

And I'm like "So? thats the point. Its role play, you pretend to be soneone else."

I have no misgivings about being a female elf but I still played as one in Dragon Age.



Hell Jennifer Hale's Shepard is twice as good as Marc Meers and I ain't fucking Kaidan in ME1

He'd bore you to sleep before you took your pants off. Guys mother was a Jigglypuff

No, but I also tend to avoid romance in games if possible. Kinda tired of it. I also don't play terribly many games like ME/DA/whatever that have romance as a thing.

I'll see how it goes in Baldurs Gate 3 but all the party members are just terrible people so far so not interested in it again lol

Not really, but I've never really roleplayed as straight either. Usually roleplay as a dude that kills bad guys

Yeah, I just pick the character I like most, it doesn't really matter what gender they are.

Lesbians all the time. Especially if there are sex scenes.

Sort of. I have a memory of me and my sister playing Ultima 7 and we found a brothel. You can do same sex stuff there but all that happens is the npc says "whatever floats your boat!" And the screen goes black or something

We were dumb then and thought it was funny

The rpg romances I've done since then I think were in Star Wars The Old Republic. But I stopped playing before they added same sex romance.

Pretty much any time I play as a woman they're a lesbian. I don't tend to go into hard-core role playing so my own taste and personality are usually front and center.

Lmao I have NEVER done this

Came close one time because I was picking all the understanding options for that driver in ME3 and then that crying scene came on with his husband dying in the invasion and I comforted him

Then it gave me the romance option and I was like oh shit

Luckily they gave you an option to decline as a friend so I was happy with that
