I looked up two videos of female Agents and there appears to be no flirt options whatsoever.

 

My male agent who didn't romance Keliyo pre KOTFE didn't get any flirt options either.

 

So either you need to be male agent who romanced her in the original story or any other class and gender to be able to flirt with her.

i'm gonna be a couple with vaylin... for the 5 seconds it takes me to put my lightsaber through her stomach.

 

seriously though, definitely don't want a romance with vaylin since she's still a kid in her mind. it's so weird. makes me worry about that " you've got a crush on me." line at sanctuary.

Why do you see Vaylin as childish if I may ask?

Imo she is mentally disturbed (if that means what I think it does) but so are half our characters - so as far as I am concerned I hope they allow us to romance her:)

(both genders ofcourse...if they allow romance, but prevent my female SI from pursuing it that will be evil!)

 

....or if Lana swoop down and steal Vaylin's heart...that will be fun...in a 'what just happened' sort of way:D

valkorion locked away most of vaylin's power, and when he did that she was still just a child. it locked away most of her mind and personality as well. so she's stuck mentally at around like 6 years old or so.

Hmm I see....well apologies for sounding creepy, but that might actually be nice romance with very interesting character:)

Romancing Vaylin strikes me as, at best, the equivalent of that nameless, faceless possibly lifeless Imperial grunt that Jaesa mentioned wanting to romance her. Yeah she might go for you, but she's also just as likely to kill you afterward, anyway.

 

That said, I wouldn't mind an optional quasi romantic subplot between her the Outlander (kind of like between the Fem Smuggler and Skavak), I think that could be fun. But a full blown romance doesn't really sound like it would make sense.

 

I mean yeah, the "You've got a crush on me" line implies she could possibly find the idea fun, but I think she'd almost definitely try to follow a hookup by literally trying to eat your heart.

 

Although that line was especially funny on my Sith Warrior because he's like "Wellll, you do remind me a little of my wife."

ROFLMAO! Was he talking about Jaesa? My only warrior that I've gotten that far is female.

 

I didn't meant he literally said that in game, but yeah that was the feeling I imagined he had in that moment.

 

Unfortunately there is no recorded dialogue that mentions any of the Class Story LIs specifically or by name.

I wanted to mention this in this thread, because same-sex topics having at least of a caliber of posters that are worth discussing with in a mature manner are few to come by outside this thread, are difficult to come by but...

 

Are there any LGBT guilds out there? I have looked around and have not come across any. (wouldn't it be great for there to be some sort of in-game index/register to wade through guild-wise and read their descriptions and whatnot? but alas).

 

A few of us have started a LGBT guild on the Bastian, the "Stonewall". And why we know its only ever going to be a small guild and kind of a fun novelty, the aspect of trying to promote such a guild to attract the right members is daunting. Normally guilds do their recruiting on starter planets and in general discussion. But trying to mention LGBT or gay in general discussions leads to a boatload of weird and somewhat insulting commentary.

 

Anywho, any advice on a good way to promote and attract members to a LGBT guild? Also, anyone know of any other LGBT guilds out there on the servers? And finally, if anyone is interested in joining us (or even just make an alt who joins us, no need to quit your main guild you raid with and is super awesome) just shoot me a message here. But otherwise some helpful advice would be great. Thanks.

 

And yes, we have a Courascant guild base/ Tropical nightclub casino, where you can same-sex romance your companions with. lol Though if they ever did a Rishi stronghold that would be insanely perfect for a LGBT guild stronghold... Just thinking outloud here.

No offense but, what's the point?

 

What has your sexuality to do with the kind of guild you join?

I mean.. somehow you want LGBT to be something normal and accepted in the society, while you distant yourself from other people and making yourself an outcast with this.

 

I'm super open-minded so please don't see an enemy in me. It just doesnt make any sense.

If you want people to see you as normal then you should probably start by doing that yourself.

For fun? Like anything in this game. For fun.

What has sexuality have to do with characters romancing their companions? What has sexuality to do with this thread? What has sexuality to do with finding other LGBT Old Republic fans and interacting with them?

Wow.

 

Non of that is really relevant? How is this "making an outcast" or "just trying to seem normal"? That has nothing to do with just a making guild in the game. People have guilds all the time, this is just one of them. Some people have "sith warrior only" guilds, or "smuggler only" guilds. No real difference. Nothing deeper than that. And this isn't about real world politics or perceptions of normality or outcasts by non LGBT people, or even as a perceived personal validation by LGBT people.

Its just a game. This is just for fun.

Thats all.

You can find some mentioned if you do a search for LGBT. Given the way guilds can come and go, they might not still be active though.

Here's a place where some LGBT-friendly guilds have advertised themselves- http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=112319

Knights of Stonewall is on The Harbinger server. I used to be with them but their numbers have really dropped. Try contacting them at knightsofstonewall.com and see if they are still active and recruiting.

 

Hope this helps!

I was against the same sex romance because of Star wars being family friendly and all but I am happy at least its toned down and not done in such a mundane political manner. The wording on the options it gives you is not pushy and I don't feel at this point it will push any of the younger players to make choices that go against their nature.

...ugh I am not sure if troll bait or not...

 

....anyway to answer you somewhat - yes you are right that in vanilla game they handled our romances badly, as (if I am not horribly mistaken) in most you needed only be polite and nice to someone to make the game think you were interested in them and start the romance. Thankfully from what I have seen in SoR and KoTFE this is not the case and you actually need to select the [flirt] option for the above to happen...?

....feel free to correct me if that actually is not the case:)

 

Edit: on the other hand I guess there is a realism in someone who likes you like that, twisting what you are saying and getting the wrong thing from it....

...I think this was the case with my JC and Iresso (it was long time ago) - if you continue to be polite to him, even without taking a single flirt option, it will inevitably lead to kiss....and as my JC was such a person to be always polite....:)
