Pillars of Eternity II is a cRPG in the vein of Baldur's Gate and a lot of the party is bi/pan. There's four romanceable characters who are into men and women, one who is only into women but shares his body with his previous reincarnation who likes men. It's not a primary feature of the game though, closer to Bioware style romance where it doesn't have a ton of impact on the plot.

S'okay. I'm pretty new to it myself. I'm reading articles and stuff as I write this.
Using this as a reference: Pan is gender blind, omni is all genders but gender does matter and may include preference, poly is more than 2 but not all genders. Bi is a big tent that includes all of these.
Keep it? I think Bi is the big umbrella which contains pan, omni and poly/multi.
Pan seems to be gender blind, i.e. attracted to people with no regard to gender or attracted to all genders.
Bi has one definition in being attracted to both men and women, both sides of a binary.
Bi also has a less common usage to mean attracted to more than one gender which may or may not include both halves of the binary or the entire spectrum.
It requires that you provide a lot of documentation to get something that qualifies as a RealID. Multiple documents showing your full name, birth date, SSN, and proof of address. And if you can't provide that paperwork, no ID for you, get fucked. Maybe that doesn't seem like much, you just need the RealID to fly on planes, right? But if you can't get an ID you can't get hired. You can't drive. You can't rent a place. You can't vote in a lot of places.
And then you get the ugly Catch 22 where you can't get a RealID because you're homeless and jobless, and you can't get a home or job because you don't have any ID.
My dad helped an old friend he knew who he found out hard been homeless for a while. And realized how you can be unpersoned. The old guy had no living family, no supporting documents to prove who he was and as such couldn't get an ID. Which meant he couldn't get a bank account, or a job that wasn't cash under the table.
