    You guys do realize that Bioware made the plot using a holywood blockbuster mindset, and that if you push the general store front on the main street of that wild west town, it will topple over because there's no actual building behind it, right?

    Debating how completely retarded Cerberus is is like argueing about how Cobra in GI Joe is so stupid. Same goes to the "Oh, how are we gonna beat the unbeatable 50 thousand Reapers". It's an action movie, Shepard is gonna do something completely illogical and throw a bad ass one-liner at it.

    And I'm gonna love every minute of it.

    to be frank i was surprised at how easily the reaper core went down

    furthermore, given that you can still one-shot the thing with the cain on insanity, and also

    given that a thresher maw on insanity takes MORE than one cain shot to put down

    thresher maw is going to win

    It's really not fair how hung over I am.

    That has nothing to do with Mass Effect so, I dunno... let's bitch about Ashley looking like a Jersey Shore reject some more?

    This is the Mass Effect thread. All we do is post horrible fanart and have multi-page debates about stuff we've had multi-page debates about a hundred other times already.

    Speaking of bad fanart, apparently a group of fans went ahead and made a "real" version of Fornax, the porno mag you can buy in ME2. Pictorials, interviews, ads, all that sort of thing.

    Two issues, in fact.

    The first issue was made some time ago. Casey Hudson admitted to knowing of its existence in one of his interviews.

    Well, I was just asking if you guys realized it. You're free to go all Star Trek on ME's ass for as long as you feel like it :D

    Ashley was basically worse than Hitler.

    Good thing Shepard nuked her from orbit.

    It was the only way to be sure.

    Confidence born of ignorance. The cycle of the Mass Effect thread cannot be broken.

    We are firmly in "Cerberus Slaughtering Humans," And "Ashley is Space Hitler" territory.

    As much fun as September is, how was it tied to Mass Effect?

  • FightTestFightTest Registered User regular
    Since you're talking about how terrible Ashley is, I just wanted to drop in and say my virginal Shepard from my first playthrough was going to remain loyal to her, but then I saw how they fucked up her head and face in ME3 and now he's a renegade space boner because ew.

    MOBA DOTA.

    I must be blind or something because I can't see this "massive" gulf between ME1-3 Ashley other than she has LONG HAIR.

    I guess I don't examine the pores.

    Man, I wonder what batarian was responsible for the Shepard is Screwed video going down.

    So pissed off about that.

    That's because it is the same goddamned head scan in a new engine. I don't get it either, the differences are minor if it all, and clearly due to it be being a. A BETA SCREEN SHOT which you known are known to be the perfect representation of how a character model looks for Mass Effect and 2. the lighting and angles which again, obviously don't have anything to do how a model looks in Mass Effect. That's never made things look odd, ever.

    People who make like, any, decision about what they are going to do in the game prior to it being in their hand, well I don't get it.

    But I also don't have a canon Shep. I have whichever one looks most fun to be play the first time.

    Basically, people just need something to bitch about...so, like with most things, they found something to bitch about.

    Where do the quads come from?

    I mean, Krogans believe in testicale transplant that comes from... other krograns... who are also sterile.

    Quads are from this thread, in which we speculated on the girth, number, and likely alignment of Krogan testicles.

    You guys can be mad all you want but over the past few years Ashley developed a case of the fat head.

    To be completely frank, I actually like Ashley's new look.

    She was completely hideous in ME1.

    I guess she thinned her eyebrows? Did something to make her lower eyelids droop. Got her chin done. Had the lower lip plumped out with some larger venom sacs.

    Ah...the irony of that video now that we know all that we know.

    I mean I know its a Bioware game so you aren't going to be screwed over for your decision with the base either way.

    But I still knew Cerberus would fuck up somehow.
