You want to talk about disappointing romance options? Try having zero team members available and 1.5 NPCs to choose from: Gil and Reyes. Reyes is typically the better choice, too, since his personality is much more interesting than Gil's.... and to add insult to injury, not only do you only get a dance with Reyes (which is a clear swap from SisRyder since you stare at the ceiling while you dance), but Gil is just a fade to black. Can't even have a good conversational flow with Reyes, either, since he stays on Kadara.
DA:I did this better. ME3 did this better. Why did MEA go in reverse?
Playing SisRyder, I had to google Reyes's romance, because it felt so incomplete I didn't feel like we even knew eachother much yet, and I didn't even realize there was a fade to black until I read an email that implied as much.
I kept waiting for the next scene. I felt cheated that I was now locked out of trying a better character. Jaal and Peebee are the only barely half-decent options, which I measure in no small part with "Exposure" and Intimacy.
WHY in the absolute reaper-loving heavens do some romances get to have some measure of quality (and nudity) while others are barely more than flirting and only get fade to blacks?

I know right?!
Why would they also claim plenty of banging when only 3 out of all the romances even get an on screen sex scene?
Why unbalance all of the romances this way? Equalize them all, is it really that difficult?
If they want to make an ace char - make one who specifically says they are ace. If they want to make a character like Liam where sex was obviously involved (he said as much). Give them the sex scene. Don't give it to one and fade it for another. Give players proper balanced choices so we can take the romance we want - with all the trimmings.
