As much as I love and respect DG, he is kind of forgetful sometimes. Like in this case, for example. Here:

The truth is that making a romance available for both genders is far less costly than creating an entirely new one.

1) The companions weren’t all bisexual in DA2. Two of them were. You being able to romance whoever you liked is not the same thing, outside of the idea that in some other reality you’re aware of the possibility that they might romance someone of a different gender.

Once again— the romances are *not* “all bisexual”. While some people don’t like subjective sexuality, being aware of the fact some of your love interests could romance someone of the same gender in another game takes a back seat to fairness and fun gameplay.

All the romances in DA2 are available to anyone. If you’re desperate to slap a label onto their sexuality, that’s your issue. It doesn’t affect how they’re written, and doesn’t affect how the writers think about them.
