Despite the news network's reputation, BioWare actually had a valid reason for concern, as the news channel previously went after the original Mass Effect game for featuring a romance scene between female Shepard and asari Liara T’Soni.

However, the higher ups at BioWare decided against this for fear of media backlash, especially from Fox News.

Recently, a former BioWare writer revealed that Mass Effect 2’s psychotic biotic was originally written to be pansexual, and would have been open to a romantic relationship with both male and female Commander Shepard.

The issue for the most part doesn’t lie in the storytelling itself, but rather who the romanceable options are throughout the three games. BioWare has long been lauded for its creative storytelling, immersive environments, and romance stories that stick with players long after the game has ended. However, there’s one thing that Mass Effect: Legendary Edition had the opportunity to change, but didn’t - the romantic storylines. May 14th is when Mass Effect: Legendary Edition will see the light of day, and with it all the technical upgrades and changes that players have been asking for over the years. Since the announcement on N7 Day, the excitement has only heightened, but now players have a solid release day to look forward to thanks to the official confirmed date for the remaster. Mass Effectfans have been on the edge of their seats since the announcement of Mass Effect: Legendary Edition, which will be a complete remaster of the original trilogy’s games.
