So today had one rather bizarre moment. Ryan and I went to EB (basically Canada's Gamestop) to get Celebi (GOTTA CATCH 'EM ALL!). The store was pretty quiet, mostly just people there to get Pokemon, so I wound up chatting with the guy at the counter about Mass Effect. I mentioned that I wasn't sure what to do about Kaidan, since I am currently romancing him but I've heard the romances in the second game are cuter so I'm thinking about killing him off when the option comes up.

The guy said "I didn't know there were same sex romance options in the first game."

...

For those of you who haven't played Mass Effect... you can play as a woman.

I know 75% of players make Shepard a man and the box art doesn't acknowledge that the female option exists, but still! For one thing, female!Shepard has a way better voice actor!

(Actually, there is a same sex romance option... if you play as a woman. :p)

Although that's more a case of "hide your lesbians" :p

I know all of three MaleSheps. >_>;

Yeah, I don't know many people who play MaleShep either, but they released the official numbers and apparently my sample is weird. :p
