Why are half the companions trying to get in my pants?

[daven]

I've been talking to them for about 5 minutes and they immediately bring up sex. 

 

It feels so ham-fisted and forced. 

 

I just have to tell them to shut the hell up cos we're on an important mission, they can go to the brothel on their own time god dammit.

Modwyr wins that hands down. Also Ishiza is a male bird.

[Juodas Varnas]

 

Also Ishiza is a male bird.

That a problem?

The proper term to apply here is "husbando".

Everyone is bisexual and sex mad. 

 

Why

[Juodas Varnas]

Everyone is bisexual and sex mad. 

 

Why

Long trips on the sea are lonely and a hole is a hole? 

[Aramintai]

Everyone is bisexual and sex mad. 

 

Why

Because god forbid somebody will complain that they can't romance anybody with anybody 

[Fluffle]

But now somebody might complain that everyone is bisexual and sex mad!

 

If only Obsidian would find a way to please everyone. Yeah that's what they tried by making everyone bisexual. But they didn't take into account the people who would dislike that.

I did complain, but I got bashed by LGBTs in the romance thread. So better not try anything there

In my opinion the whole romance thing is one of the few things Dragon Age: Inquisition did right, every romanceable character has their own preferences. One man is bisexual, one is heterosexual and one is only interested in female elves. This isn't a bad thing, it's a reflection of reality.

[Tarlonniel]

Is Aloth the only one who doesn't express interest unless you do?

Very true. I like seeing a representation of reality - everyone wants to be included but that doesn't mean everyone has to be bi/pan etc. 

[Aramintai]

Seems so, but that at least is explained well in the game. He's a nerd, who values privacy and is uncomfortable getting close with people because of his past and living so long with obnoxious Iselmyr.

Trying to get into your pants? Well, they are mighty fine pants, and pantwear in the Deadfire is at a premium after every soiled their's after seeing a giant adra statue powered by a supposedly dead god wandered through. Though I suspect the pants market will crash like the dot com boom when people start realising they can just wash their old pants or make new ones.

Xoti showed zero interest in my character in 15 hours so far and I'm not romancing anyone.

How did you manage that? She was thirsting over my character the moment they met.

 

As for the OP half the companions? Tek and Xoti aren't half the companions so Yes they both hit on the PC pretty aggressively. You can also turn them down immediately and keep it moving. I'm not sure about Maia but Aloth doesn't bring up romance unless you bring it up first in my experience.

Maybe she doesn't like orlan that much? I never had her in the negative, but I did avoid picking "too nice" dialogue options early on if that makes sense.

Ah, yes. There is nothing I love seeing more in my fantasy games then reflections of reality. Well, except for the magic. And dragons. And sexy talking swords. I mean, those are all fine, but I definitely draw the line at bisexuals. Like, a society thats not hung up on gender? Well, that just is taking things too far.
