I get what youre saying but 'Everyones gender preference equals my gender and everyone wants a relationship just with me' is kind of the opposite of my rl experience. It just feels so unnatural that all female characters are hetero while all males are gay automatically. The exact opposite if your character is female. Also, why cant you reject someone by saying you arent attracted to their gender? Coz thats what I would do irl, not just say 'leave me alone'
I felt that there should have been an option to set your orientation during the creation scene. It would have avoided a number of weird encounters. IRL life you'd tell them you're straight and the advances would stop.
That's the case in all bioware games, and cyberpunk 2077 was criticised for not doing it.
But I'm worried now. Is it really the homosexual attention that's so concerning to you? Because it is starting to look like this.
It is not the homosexual attention per se thats bothering me, it is the lack of non-sexual friendship. Why cant I just be friends with someone without being hit on all the time. Sure, being hit on by women bothers me less because thats my sexual preference, but its just unrealistic in both cases. Yes its nice to have the option of all kinds of sexual relationships with characters, but I dont want it forced on me. I just want the option of being friends with men and women without them constantly seducing me.
I was friend with Wyll and Minsc and Jaheira.
Yea actually my critique was aimed at the earlier versions of the release. In my second playthrough it seems less awkward and more casual. So props to the devs for working so hard on the game after release.
