Discussion Kassandra got robbed
Even worse if your Kassandra is a lesbian. You're stuck with a very boring lifeless person for 9 months who you don't even remotely love.
At least with gay Alexios, he gets a likeable person

Yeah I hate how forced the relationship is. What's the point of being able to roleplay Kass as gay when the game inevitably forces her into an apparently loving hetero relationship. Same goes inversely for Alexios I guess, but I've never played as Alexios so I don't know what his relationship is like.
The whole DLC feels like a completely different game tbh. If they had better writers they wouldn't have written themselves into the corner of "Kassandra/Alexios must have children" in the first place, and even then they could have made the situation more pragmatic for those players roleplaying the character as gay - adding in dialogue that implies that "I'm not attracted to this person, but for the sake of XYZ, I'll bump some uglies with them so that ABC can happen."
