Jun. 6, 2017Mass Effect Andromeda Patch Improves Character Creator, Romance Options & More
BioWare has released the notes for an upcoming patch toMass Effect Andromeda. In addition to the standard litany of bug fixes, the patch addresses 2 big bugaboos via fan feedback: character creation and romance options.
Two new heads were added, one male and one female, as well as a new complexion option and a greater range of available skin tones. All hairstyles for both sexes have been unlocked, and they have added a new bald option. Players will now also be able to change their looks mid-game while on theTempest. You can also now choose to keep the default Alec, rather than having his appearance be based on your customRyder.
Scott Ryder can now pursueJaalas a romance option. Scott Ryder did not have a same-sex squadmate available as aromanceoption, nor could the achievement for completing three romances be achieved with only male same-sex partners. As the angara have expressed their fluidity in how they perceive gender, according to BioWare it was a natural fit to pair Scott with Jaal if desired.
Here are the full notes:

Editor at Fextralife. I look for the substantial in gaming and I try to connect video games to the emotions and stories they elicit. I love all things culture and history and have an odd fondness for the planet Jupiter. I think my dogs are pretty awesome too.
Odd that the patch notes have been released before said patch. That said, being able to use the CC aboard the Tempest should be helpful, as well as a few fixes to single player.
so you can romance a pillow person now? i’m not exactly sold.
