    Why is this a conversation that we are having?

    What the fucking fuck.

    I'm just wondering if Jokers boner is subject to vrolics disease. I mean can he break a bone jerking off? These are the questions that plague me at night.

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    The animator who was responsible probably spent more than a couple minutes thinking that his work would result in a discussion similar to this.

    Yes. The thread is BACK!

    Edit: I did it. I went to check out the EDI alternate outfits. I hang my head in my shame now.

    I'm sure that if we looked enough, we could find some bizarre detailed multi-page graph on EDI's uh...features on BSN. Or do they only do that for Tali sweat?

    edi being a sexbot was pretty awful. reifying a previously disembodied ai is a cool idea tho, just wouldve been nice if she'd gone into, i dunno, a less ridiculous platform. maybe one of the big mechs from me2, ymir squadmate best squadmate.

    EDI's a robot and therefore not real. Get it together Strikor, gosh.

    I almost typed this yesterday when there were multiple pages discussing fanart and fan fiction and the validity and quality of such stuff. I didn't want to ruin the magic by yelling "HEY GUYS, THE UNICORNS ARE BACK!" until Turian porn showed up, though. 8-> But robot vagina discussion counts.

    There was even some hastily crafted joke fanfic written. It's almost like 'Mass Effect 3 ending' never happened! Can we be a messed up internet family again?

    Edi's alternate outfit that is like Mirandas from ME2, has some serious robo camel toe.
    She's just emulating Miranda.

    Miranda didn't have camel toe that I remember. I mean she threw her ass at you the whole time, but she didn't give you the outline of her labia.
    The_Scarab wrote: »
    If I remember correctly the Miranda camel toe was an unintentional byproduct of the way the animation rig merged the two legs, just creating a kind of seam because Miranda's thighs are thicker than the standard Mass Effect female model.
    Well, I remember on my first time through ME2, on Miranda's loyalty mission I was scoped in on my SR, and Miranda decided to walk over and stand in front of me mid-battle.

    From then on, I have always seen it, because it cannot be unseen.

    I take back what I said about the text slideshow. Now I want a 2001: Space Odyssey-style ending with the planet replaced with EDI's lady bits.

    I never actually noticed the robo camel toe until the internet pointed it out for me... so thank you internet... thank you so much.
    Why the hell would they model that? Why!?

    I hadn't noticed it either. Mostly because it's the sort of thing that you have to... look for... on a robot... in a video game... and... yeah... internet.

    Is it because Dr Eva was a woman?

    I think it's more because the people buying the game aren't.

    Not entirely true for ME's fanbase, I believe BioWare has always had a higher share of women playing their games because of the RPG and love aspects. I know personally my wife picked it up for the romance options.

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    Ashley's breasts weren't super huge. You'd have a case based on Samara's outfit, or Jacks outfit in ME 2, but Ashley isn't exactly like swinging around quadruple g breasts. Not every lady in the military is flat chested.

    Yeah but you can also spend a good portion of the game waiting for Kaidan to put a shirt on. Or not, depending on your preferences.

    Look they had to show off how much Kaiden had worked out trying to win your heart back if you rejected him.

    EDI's design is one of my favorite things about the game, not gonna lie.

    This super-advanced Reaper-based AI with a holoprojection that already sort of looks like female genitalia is given a robot body in a universe where there is absolutely no gender connotations for any synthetic life forms whatsoever. Nothing looks male or female.

    So what does EDI do?

    She dolls herself up in a 1940s-era art deco sexy robot lady from pulp magazine covers, and then makes an outfit that shows off sexual characteristics in a way no other character in the franchise does

    Come on guys, her design is hilarious in the best possible way

    I like to think of it that way.

    "I'm right here Jeff."

    "Yes you are, Edi. Yes you are."

    Male gaze isn't really about proportion so much as it's about perspective and direction

    Scenes with Miranda have that, but her full-screen ass shots are more of a good-natured joke than an attempt to titillate, at this point

    I didn't see Ashley's redesign as anything other than making her look softer. So she went from being Vasquez to Ripley, she was still Ashley in personality.

    This is a big part of why I enjoy EDI's character so much. She wants to bang the Hell out of Seth Green, and that's fantastic.

    I'd argue that it's just a fine line to walk.

    Taking feedback (constructive praise and criticism alike) aren't bad things.

    Using the extremely devoted and unpleasable detractors to base your design decisions off of, however, is problematic.

    Not saying they did that here, just that while I agree with the perils of listening to either fringe, it's not a bad thing to play to your strengths and learn from your weaknesses, which requires some input to figure out what those are.

    Speaking of which, at this point I kind of expect some of Bioware's best work on the finale of their next game, presumably Dragon Age 3? I have faith they're not going to let this clusterfuck happen again, doubly so on their next big release.
