Who ever said this needed to be a priority?

Maybe PvP should be restricted so that only female characters can participate in it, just to see how much people would enjoy being forced to be a certain gender in order to experience one of the game's basic functions.
lol... only a matter of time before the spin doctors start their work...

My quote was in response to this quote, which was already in the post that you quoted but conveniently left out.

Quote:
Personally, not having this is preventing me from playing my female characters past a certain point. It's really frustrating, i can't imagine being in a "relationship" with random hairy all over the place dude.
This guy wants SGRA because he wants to roll a female toon, yet doesn't want to romance with a male companion. No once forced him to roll a female toon, or forced him to romance with a male toon, which is entirely optional. My quote was an advice to him saying you have many options to avoid romancing with a male companion. Don't roll a female toon, or don't romance.

I have no idea how it means what you think it means. I really don't get your analogy at all. Sorry.

Having played both of those stories i can understand, but perhaps there is someone who is interested in one of the SI or BH's companions, i'm sure they wouldn't mind.

My point being, this should never get priority over making more actual story content. Therefore, it would never get added because it would always be lower on the priority list.

They can have em, I would love to romance Talos as I think he is just so cute, Torian is like a little brother to me and Andronokis is too thuggy for me and does nothing for me at all. If it were not for Quinn I have to deal with Pierce who is just so not my type in any way. In many classes male toons get a choice of at least two to pick from while us females get one choice and that usually sucks.

But, he is forced to romance a male companion if he plays female.

PvP is optional too. So is it fair to restrict it based on gender too? If somebody rolls a male character and can't PvP because of it, well, then, no one forced him to roll a male toon, and no one is forcing him to PvP, which is entirely optional.

Exactly -- like I said, basically it's a choice between having to play something you dislike, or not getting to participate in an activity you like. It's exactly like having to choose a certain race or gender to be eligible for PvP -- you have to restrict your character generation choices in order to do what you want in the game.

"Priority" is a matter of opinion, to each their own

Do you have to "romance" a companion to complete their story, or can you excercise free will and chose the other options?

Yes, it is very unfortunate, i would love to discuss this with you in greater depth but that would be going off topic, perhaps you should create a movement to get more/better male romanceable companions?
