arguing against having both expressions, which wouldn’t take anything away from other group, is so silly.
@Yassi99 now calling the views of others "silly" is disrespectful and unconstructive. If you wish to continue to participate in this thread, please review and act in accordance with our forum rules, particularly those I highlighted
above. And while it's okay that people drop a short note explaining why they've voted as they have, the OP clearly stated that the purpose of this thread is not discussion, so please move on once you've had your say and don't keep posting similar points that are likely to draw debate that will derail the thread (and that goes to @Elly as well).
I'd also ask everyone to recognise that however strongly they feel their own view, it is not the only possible one and others can and do have other interpretations and by participating on these forums you are agreeing to comply with our rules, which include respecting the character preferences and narratives of others. I find it really dispiriting to see people who must know how contentious this issue has been here and who have already made the same points repeatedly elsewhere apparently making objective statements that seem to invalidate the preferences of others, such as that they would make the romance not a romance, or are the result of a mistake. It's of course fine, and understandable, to hope that our own preferences will prevail when it comes to the game, but I'd hope that those who take seriously the responsibility we all have as per the rules to make this a safe and positive community would do more to meet the other side constructively.
I'm also going to ask everyone again to stop rising to everything you see as provocative and if you don't feel able to de-escalate at least disengage and don't escalate or enter into a row. Please, can we just try to have one thread about Ascended Astarion where people with different views can discuss with each other civilly?
