Remember in the first Dragon Age where you just couldn't romance certain characters? Genuinely we should go back to that
Lady, EVOLVED 
@coriander the problem with bioware sexualities wasn't that not every character could be romanced by any gender of player but that bioware was frequently wrong about which ones were which
@coriander i do think it's interesting because like Baldur’s Gate is clearly a roleplaying adventure and you can give the characters whatever sexuality you want because you’re roleplaying and that’s your prerogative, but Bioware games have always been much more about defined Characters and Plots and i don’t think it’s wrong for them to have specific sexual orientations be a part of that
but like, commit to it if you’re going to do it; they’re too chicken in 2024 to say “no, that’s not the story we’re telling here” to the person who bought the game
@Lady Yeah that's a good way to put the difference!
