Hearing what it was like to write, shoot, and animate ‘Baldur’s Gate 3’ definitely explains why the romances and intimate moments feel so real.

    I would like it more nuanced like in Bioware games (ME, DA, SWTOR): some companions are bisexual, some are homo only, some are hetero only.

    I don’t mind some being straightforward and persistent but I would also like some being shy and not initiate romance if it isn’t you who hit on them.

    It would make for more “realistic” personalities, in my opinion.

      The only problem is, people complained vehemently over BioWare having characters with any sexuality that’s not player-sexual, and immediately mod out those gender limitations on romancing. Just look at the mods to make Dorian and Suvi straight, and to make Jack and Tali bi.

        Is that why Larian made everyone bisex? Those kind of complaints don’t make any sense IMO, it’s fine to have mods tho.

          Probably. Personally, I love characters having their own sexuality. It gives me a reason to play have more than once with different genders.

          And honestly, it’s actually very creepy to mod Dorian straight/bi in Dragon Age Inquisition, if you know his backstory.
