Kindregan isn’t the one particular person to talk up on Jack’s sexuality suppression within the shipped model of Mass Effect 2. The character’s voice actress, Courtney Taylor, additionally believed the character was pansexual.
“I was surprised there wasn’t a female romance possible because that was my understanding,” Taylor defined. “I think it was the time, you know? That was, what – 2008/2009? The industry has changed exponentially since then, and BioWare was leading the charge on that. I don’t know if it came down to a budget constraint or maybe someone being like ‘this is too obvious’ because everyone was like ‘of course she’s a lesbian.’ But my sense was always that she was [pansexual] and it just didn’t get followed through. Of course, the community modded it immediately so you can have it your way.”
