Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Mass Effect 3: Vote for FemShep.... again!

GT: batshido Hit me up on ME3.
We might like to think otherwise, but Mass Effect doesn't have much going for it when you take the interactivity away. Doesn't make it a bad game, but it's explicitly written with video games as a medium in mind.

That's true. Mass Effect is all about how you, the player, want things to unfold. Absolutely nobody would be satisfied with how the movie turned out, I hope it doesn't happen...

If we get a Batarian squadmate I'm assuming he'd be an outlier among his own people.
Like I said, Charn isn't such a bad sort, for being a murderous terrorist that is. He draws the line when Balak goes too far in regards to Terra Nova. Something along those lines for a squadmate, I could enjoy.
i don't think that'll harm its chances, though. throw in enough ships and explosions and it'll do just fine.

It is happening for now. Word is that the screenwriter for it is Mark Protosevich, who most recently did Thor, and he will be speaking about it at the Legendary Panel at Comic Con. I really enjoyed Thor, so if he can find that magic again, the movie could turn out decent.
Really? Damn... I really enjoyed Thor as well.
Ok, well as long as the movie is about The First Contact War or something and not Shep.

I hadn't noticed this. Of course, I don't read my own file; I know who I am, dammit!

I'm pretty sure there isn't a file for Shep. The 'him' and 'he' slip-up comes in Admiral Hackett's file. Some underling writes Hackett a long memo about why the Alliance needs to bring Shep in for questioning, to find out why "he" is with Cerberus and where "he's" been these two years, and it probably won't take long, 6-7months at most.
Hackett's reply? "Request denied." Heh heh. God I love Hackett.

I disagree here. ME is written like a video game, but that's why a movie adaptation has to adapt, not port over. The setting is pretty interesting, there's a wide range of cool characters, and epic war against unstoppable force is simple enough to hold it together.
I mean its easy to fit information into a 20+ hour game that comes with an ecylopedia to help explain things. Not so much in a 2 hour movie.
Unfortunately, Exterminating Batarians has limited applications in the real world.
Because 9% think it's too high, and shouldn't be cut! 9% of respondents could not fully
get their arms around the question. There should be another box you can check for, "I
have utterly no idea what you're talking about. Please, God, don't ask for my input."
Image size rules finally caught up with it and Echo changed it.
Damn. It really was the bestest OP.
Not the impression some of you guys give with your unbridled enthusiasm on the topic. :winky:*
*Imagine this as an incredibly dark winky face, as though it was from one of these guys.
Seriously, it's a great movie
Gonna finally drink that Brandy I've been saving and go hit on some Yoga moms
That's quite a lot for the OP having to shrink. Is that something you just do with any provocation?

I don't really see a time where it wouldn't be a good idea to hit on some hot Yoga moms.
Unless they're saying "Don't hit on me, or I will blow fire at you"

Ouch.
W.W.S.D.?
The fact that one of the most 'decent' batarian examples available is the guy who thought they were just there for a "quick slave grab" is a testament to the species.
The movie page on the ME wiki (not sure how accurate or up to date this is) says that the movie will indeed follow Shepard's story, and that the dev team has always considered said story to be prime movie material.
Personally, I'm rather peeved, because RPGs are about player choice and all the fans are going to end up yelping "my Shepard doesn't look like that!", "my Shepard wouldn't say/do that!", "my Shepard's a woman!".
>.>
<.<
Very poor situational awareness.
They will do that, yes
And I will point at, laugh at and mock them endlessly
And I'm also someone who only plays femshep
So, basically, exactly like things are already?
I personally am going to point and laugh at all the people who pay actual, legal currency to watch this movie. Whether they complain or not.
Because it's not going to be good, in all likelihood. Even if Michael Cera isn't in it.
As I said before: what-evs.
On the other hand, I do fervently hope that Bioware does some trolling of their fanbase in the third game. A Batarian squadmate would do it, but I doubt that's on the table. I'd probably be satisfied with some extra Aria sass.

The film page I see on the wiki only has the announcement from Chris Priestly, and if that's what you're referring to, it says nothing about Shepard, just that Mass Effect is ripe for a movie. Mass Effect is the franchise as well as the particular game.
They wouldn't use Shepard in a movie for the same reason they don't use her in the books.
How can you say with 100% certainty that it's going to be bad? It's not like Legendary has a terrible track record...
