Discussions regarding real life politics, morality and religion do not belong in this thread or anywhere else on the forums. All replies must be on-topic, constructive and respectful or they will be removed. &#13;\n&#13;\nOur official statement:&#13;\n&#13;\n[quote name='StephenReid'][color=#f9d648]Official statement follows:&#13;\n[INDENT]Due to the design constraints of a fully voiced MMO of this scale and size, many choices had to be made as to the launch and post-launch feature set. Same gender romances with companion characters in [i]Star Wars:[/i] The Old Republic will be a post-launch feature. Because The Old Republic is an MMO, the game will live on through content expansions which allow us to include content and features that could not be included at launch, including the addition of more companion characters who will have additional romance options.[/INDENT][/color][/QUOTE]&#13;\n&#13;\nAs a gentle reminder to everyone, please remember the following:&#13;\n&#13;\n[LIST]&#13;\n[*][b]Insults[/b] - Please do not resort to or use them in any way in your posts.
