Dragon Age and Mass Effect are among the games that contain these options.įor the hundreds of users who have been spent weeks arguing the case that such options should be included, this is welcome news.
In case of many Bioware games, that often includes navigating scripted social interactions that can result in a romantic relationship if the player makes the right choices. "Companion characters" are typically non-playable, computer-controller characters who follow the player's avatar through the game world and offer various options for interaction. Because ‘ The Old Republic’ is an MMO, the game will live on through content expansions which allow us to include content and features that could not be included at launch, including the addition of more companion characters who will have additional romance options. Same gender romances with companion characters in ‘ Star Wars: The Old Republic’ will be a post-launch feature. The official statement from Bioware read as follows:ĭue to the design constraints of a fully voiced MMO of this scale and size, many choices had to be made as to the launch and post-launch feature set. Several weeks later, their voices appear to have been heard, as developer Bioware has now said that same-sex romance options would be added post-launch through the release of add-on content. After developers announced last month that the upcoming game Star Wars: The Old Republic would feature only straight romance options, fans immediately began voicing their disapproval of the decision on the game's extensive message boards and across the internet.
