sauceemynx Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 That's it people, that's the sign we've been waiting for. Burn all the books containing romances, crush all the DVD's and Blurays that have movies on them involving a romance story. Delete all the songs about relationships from your Spotify lists. Humanity is no longer allowed to create stories about love, romance and relationships. Yes, I know we've been inventing stories and tales for millennia to amuse ourselves, I know we've been writing stories about love, romance and courtship for centuries purely for our enjoyment, but you've just heard it: they're not a substitute for the real thing, so we can no longer enjoy them... Ha ha ha ha, I love this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackerprincess Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 On the same subject, I'll bet a lot of people could also make sure that in one scene, my character isn't suddenly 6'5'' and my target LI is 5'8'', and in another scene it's the exact opposite. Agreed. Why is my character is supposedly around the same height as Lana gain an extra 8 inches during kiss scenes? And ridiculously enough, I had this happen in non-romance scenes too. I wonder if BW knows a healthy amount of people tend to main female characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zandilar Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 (edited) Agreed. Why is my character is supposedly around the same height as Lana gain an extra 8 inches during kiss scenes? And ridiculously enough, I had this happen in non-romance scenes too. I wonder if BW knows a healthy amount of people tend to main female characters. There are four different body types for each gender - with one being quite a bit taller than the other three. So they have to account for height differences in their scenes... which they don't do particularly well. My ladies are all body type 3, and it's weird that sometimes Lana is taller? (I usually just hand wave it as a result of my lady picking Lana up to kiss her.) Yeah, and someone mentioned on page 11, I think, that there are no solely m/m or f/f romances... There is precisely one. It's Lord Cytharat in RotHC. He's only romance-able by male imps. I suppose it's just a fling, though. (There has never been an f/f only romance, flirt, or fling in SWTOR to my knowledge (and I'm a pedantic know-it-all usually). It seems the rule of thumb is that all women LIs must be available to men.) Edited December 16, 2018 by Zandilar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nefla Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Agreed. Why is my character is supposedly around the same height as Lana gain an extra 8 inches during kiss scenes? And ridiculously enough, I had this happen in non-romance scenes too. I wonder if BW knows a healthy amount of people tend to main female characters. When they animate a scene, they do it with one player body and one body only and just weirdly contort any other body type to fit. It's not just the female PCs, for example it's assumed that your male smuggler will be taller than Akaavi so if you play a BT1 you get this hilarious gem https://i.imgur.com/mKzKFb0.png The male/male scenes are made with body type 2 in mind so if you're BT3 and you romance Theron, your character is going to be weirdly crouching when hugging him and so on.

MandFlurry Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 You misunderstand. What I was saying is that people who enjoy romance, have been saying how when they introduce PvP content or even some PvE, that it results into people quitting. I think they call them "content locusts" I may be wrong on that term. Their are some people that actually do quit over things that they did not like, whether it be in Pve or Pvp, and i 'm sure some have have even done it over the romance story lines not getting enough attention, though Bioware hasn't gotten' the resources other MMO's and game companies get, i'm sure you already knew that though. Not as many people quit over 1 feature, as they do over many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And a lot of the people on this forum are older than the millenial crowd by a good couple of decades, so let's not blame the kiddies too much.

sauceemynx Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Age? Okay, I'll play, because like you I don't mind how old I am. I was almost 7 years old when I saw A New Hope in the theatres, during its original theatrical run. I still remember how the line ran around the block, and how excited we were to see this movie-making miracle. That answer your question? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We get along really well, I don't really think it's an age thing (going back to the subject sort of) I think it's just people. There are also 50 year olds that I just don't get along with. Generally they're more old fashioned in their thinking, I guess? Edited December 18, 2018 by Eshvara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
