This is why I'm glad they're fucking finally putting same-sex romance in the third game. Liara, the bi alien love interest, is a character I quite like. I thought her romance was sweet, but not perfect. However, it felt more of an issue of "we've had no interaction, why are you suddenly in love with me?" than a fan-service problem.

Of course, I've got a marked blind spot for fan-servicey things, so I may just not have noticed. Though I really, really hate the f/f romance with Kelly in ME2

[dgcatanisiri.livejournal.com]

I have the same problem with Liara's romance. Kaidan and Ashley, you interact with and learn about. Liara, by the second conversation, it's romance her or never speak with her again. You don't get to know about her unless you're looking to sleep with her.

[phoeliac.livejournal.com]

You don't get to know about her unless you're looking to sleep with her.

Pretty much the only reason why my canon!Shep didn't romance her.

This is why I was so happy with the LotSB dlc - it gave you Liara interaction and some insight to her character without having to romance her.

Discussion in ME1 with Liara is so irritating :| I flat out told her I wasn't interested in her and continued to talk with her thinking it would be alright and I still got the double-timin' confrontation scene. WTF.

[phoeliac.livejournal.com]

Ugh, there's little I hate more in bad romance issues than ninjamance. I had this happen in DA2 with Leliana asking me if I was ending it, and me just being like "there's an IT?"

[mondaisenshi.livejournal.com]

This. I've recently started a mage elf, but due to her characterization she's gonna keep Zevran in her party, and I refuse to go through that game with two rogues. It's underpowered and annoying! So I started thinking, "How am I gonna win over Leliana if I don't keep her in my party?!" ... but then I remembered, I never keep her in my party. And she ALWAYS falls for my women!

The ironic part being, apparently a lot of people complained about Zevran being a ninjamance...? When really, he was the only one that had an abort button every step of the way, and it's RIDICULOUSLY easy to keep him at a distance. (Although he may not like you as much.. Telling him not to flirt makes him sad. XD) And Leliana, really, all you have to do is not be pure evil and she'll be telling you she loves you every time... Get off my dwarf, woman, she wants nothing to do with you! :V

..... I just don't like Liara. >>; To be fair, this thread has made a point I'd never considered - I never got to know her because I always shut her down right away, and I honestly didn't KNOW there was more to her character! As it is, though, I don't much care for the way she seems to be getting the spotlight. I mean, even a well written and developed supporting character shouldn't get THAT much more screen time than the others...

[dgcatanisiri.livejournal.com]

Love Leliana, but yeah, she's bugged out to hell when it comes to romance. I've had to shut her down twice in one game, when all I've done is be nice to her. No flirting, no leading on, just trying to be her friend while I'm boinking the hell out of Zevran. *sigh*

[caffeinefreeddp.livejournal.com]

See, I had the opposite problem. I told Kaidan I wasn't interested, romanced the pants of Liara, and still got him jumping all over me about how he thought we had a connection. My vanguard Shep was not at all impressed with mister Alenko.

What gets me is that they've been teasing us with same-sex romances since day one, right down to having the voices recorded for it...and then it gets jerked away from us. Both times.

[dgcatanisiri.livejournal.com]

Given that this time they've come out and announced it ahead of time, if they dangle it in front of us and take it away again, I feel confident in saying that there WILL be rioting.
