Why couldn't a male Shepard romance Garrus, /v/?Tfw you will never cuddle with your turian husbando

Why couldn't I romance a turian female? Why couldn't I romance females that weren't recolored humans?
>>342165628
Don't deny it, you'd probably date Garrus too if he were real.
>>342164886
The rumor was that one of the voice actors didn't want to do it. In Mass Effect 2 if you turn the flag on for Garrus' romance and talk to Mordin when he asks about your romantic partner, all of the lines have no voice lines, except for one, where Mark Meer says "I am not sleeping with Garrus" in a very monotone voice.
Tali and Femshep have lesbian lines in the files, so male shepard and Garrus may have been planned to have gay lines as well, but for whatever reason this was not completed.
Personally my bet isn't on the voice actors, but rather the male model that they based default Shepard on. Femshep has no real life counterpart so they didn't have to worry about that.

plus garrus isn't gay
>>342165942
As a fucking bro. He is a wing man with the ladies.

I think one of the voice actors actually came out and admitted they didn't want to do it, but I may be remembering it wrong.
I never truly understood refusing to do lines. It's something you get paid for, and it's basically a job. Gay-for-pay would be a lot harder on TV than voice acting.
>>342166301
>1 person.jpg
>>342166359
If that is actually the reason then that is fucking pathetic. He literally refused to do the job he was being paid for.
>>342166485
Exactly, but it's something I've heard about a couple of times. It's this sort of "I have lines I won't cross." shit that I don't get. It's a ROLE, and if you're a good voice actor you can seperate your own beliefs from the beliefs of your character.
Plus, like you said, it's his job.
>>342166359
>>342166485
If one came out and said it I'd love a source, I keep hearing this but no matter how much I look I can't seem to find it anywhere.
>>342166612
Yep. If he was unwilling to do it then that means he is literally, objectively a bad actor.
>>342166485
>>342166612
>>342166903
>being this upset that someone didn't want to do something gay
>lol b-but you get paid!
Homosexuals need to be gassed.
>>342164886
Because Garrus isn't gay.He should've been though
>>342167136
If he didn't want to do his job then he should've been replaced with someone who would.
>hey we need your character to say this line about God
>Sorry but I'm atheist, I can't record that line, its against my morals
>>342167136
Yeah because gay actors, singers and VAs only do homo stuff right? If you get in one of those fields you do what has to be done, a fucklot of them do villains and serial killers and nobody gives a shit because that's just part of the job.
Stop allowing people to be pussies.
>>342166204
You wouldn't want to kiss Garrus and cuddle with him, Anon?

>STILL perpetuating this rumor
The original rumor was that Tali's voice actress did not want to record lines for a romance with femshep.
This is completely false, it most likely began back in the day on /meg/ when people were mad they could be lesbians with Tali and wanted to point fingers. Someone posted something like "I bet Tali's VA didn't want to record gay shit" and it just grew from there into tons of people believing that's what really happened, for no other reason than that they read about it on 4chan.
>>342167852
No! He is like a brother. A Brother from another spices mother.

That's the full image, Anon.
You don't romance your bro/wingman, dude.
>>342169180
What? What kind of sadistic person would do that? Fuck the artist then.
>>342169046
if you need religion to tell you to be a good person then you weren't moral to begin with. You're just a shithead, regardless of your beliefs

This is one of countless reasons that ME3 was ass. Frankly it's a miracle that they didn't turn Garrus gay for it.
If I had to guess, it's because they knew that most players would want to bromance it up with him and Bioware's 'romance' writing basically means inserting really awkward flirting into conversations when you're just trying to pick the 'nice' option. This means that the two really wouldn't be compatible.
>>342169430
>>342169701
this..
fuck religoin...
>>342169472
Instead of trying to turn attractive male characters into female characters you should probably just accept your sexualityfeelsgood
>>342170941
ME3 was shit for reasons that had nothing to do with the romance, and don't you deny it.
>>342171540
As I said anon, 'one of the countless'. Work on your reading comprehension.

>>342171680
How would have making Garrus romanceable for a male Shepard have made the game bad? On the other hand, one of the reasons it sucked - apart from everything else was that I couldn't have the consolation of flirting with and dating Garrus!
>>342168730

It's a name. Charlemagne can call it dicktits if he wanted.
>>342164886

I always thought of male Shepard and Garrus as lovers.
>>342164886
I'm upset they didn't let male shepherd fuck weird monsters. It makes it seem like they took it all super seriously, which sucks, because I fucking didn't. The West can't make waifus.

What gay turian?
>>342174665
Gavorn in ME2
>>342164886
Because Garrus, unlike OP, is not a faggot.
>>342175054
What does he ever do that is remotely 'gay'?
>>342175803

You can watch some camera footage where hes with some human dude in a bedroom room or some shit

That's cute :33

>>342166301
/v/ has never hated VNs as a concept. Like at all. Sure the shit ones, of which there is a massive fucking abundance, but not good ones.
Tali best girl
>>342178790
If it has one and if it's good.
Would you bang a turian or Krogan that acts like Steve Cortez?
>>342179168
Only if I get to scream his namein agony like I lost the best friend I ever knew, then in the very next sentence deliver a completely monotone line.
there are people on this very thread RIGHT NOW that didn'tthat didn't taste her blueberry vagina or stick it in her purple butthole
you disgust me
>>342164886
The turians were supposed to be cats with metallic skin right? That's what they always looked like to me.
>>342166038
NAH it was because vanderloo or whatever, maleshep's face model, was adamant about no gay shit
>>342166038
also mark meer has dressed up and performed in drag as a witch more than once
>tfw cute quarian guy
>no bara geth bf to snuggle
>>342179778
>drag
>gay
It is pretty weird, but performing in drag =/= gay
>>342179925
never said drag=gay you whiny tumblrina
all i'm pointing out is he's not uncomfortable doing LGBT-related shit
>>342179504
Asari are tealwhores who only there to suck your wealth and pop-out more tealwhores.
I went withno one since there were more important matters than my benis
>>342179675
Well too bad for him since you can gay it out with that Steve dude in Mass Effect 3.
I honestly like the fact that Garrus isn't a romantic option for maleshep despite being a fag myself. Most people are still straight IRL so it would make fuckall sense for all the characters to be BI. I truly appreciate a well-written friendship (especially a male friendship) more than an equally well-written romance. The former means so much more to me than the latter and has very rarely been done well in media.
>>342180596
how do you feel about steve boiling down to MUH DEAD HUSBAND
and also that Vega wasn't romanceable
>>342180801
Not him, but giving us the worst characters really sucked. Seems like it was just poor planning though, since you can fuck that purple dude in DA:I.
>>342181307
also dorian was the worst thing in the world in da:i
also the iron bull romance was ruined for me by the implied BDSM shit
>>342180801
Steve was completely uninteresting and I didn't even bother beyond talking to him a bit because I'm a completionist. He felt like nothing but a token "full gay" character and I fucking hate being reduced to some fucking oppressed minority that needs some PC writers to represent it. Vega secretly being gay as fuck and hiding his intense faggotry beneath a facade of being a total gymbro who fucks all the bitches would have been hilarious. You want genuinely good gay characters you have to look beyond BioWare (though I did think that Dorian was fucking great in DAI even though his storyline was ridiculously predictable; he was a true bro).
You've probably heard this before but Obsidian got that shit down perfectly: both Arcade Gannon, Veronica, and Christine are realistic, reasonable gay characters whose sexuality is important to their story but doesn't necessarily define them as people at all, nor are they any quicker to talk about their sexual conquest than any other well-adjusted adult without something to prove. Sawyer, Avellone and co. be based both in their willingness to tackle sexuality in a fair, tactful way but also their refusal to reduce character interactions to a romantic/sexual power fantasy.

>>342168934
religion is a social structure that enforces selective morals
just look at the jews and their completely insular society for godsakes.
>>342183314
she could be like P4DAN Rise and have her voice switch to Anthony Burch's sister's?
>>342183630
I think his point was that religion is not a requirement for morality which is what the previous poster implied.
