Let's just wait until we see what's actually in the game before we go nuclear, okay guys? Getting in arguments about this isn't going to help. The marketing on this sucks and I wish they'd have just told us by now, but there's no use getting worked up about hypotheticals that might not even happen. There hasn't been a game without squad options for everyone since ME2 and we still have stronger evidence in the code than in these vague articles repeating a source that admits it doesn't have any idea. Let's try to calm down for now. My big problem is that apparently asari O-face was more important than the character creator... Why did you remind me now I'm double pissed.

What's the problem with Blackwall again? I would like him with male! (More than Dorian.) He's dour, incessantly self-deprecating, constantly tells the female Inquisitor that "we can't do this" yada yada, leaves you naked in a barn after sleeping with you under false pretenses, apparently killed some kids, etc. Like, man....you're not hot enough for that. Fenris was hot enough for me to endure the high-octane angst. Blackwall though? Nah. His concept art was pretty sexy, but how he ended up being short and portly with a distracting large beard, I have no clue. Yep no where near sexy enough for all that drama.

I'd not be surprised if straight f!Ryder only has 2 options. It feels punitive as well, you know? We were greedy with DAI after all. Even when, as almost always, the LI can/will betray, lie or/and leave. I will never get over how they originally intended femquizzy to have just Blackwall and Bull. Why we gotta have two liars? What did we do?

Gonna get hella falck for this probably, but I seriously think they should have cut the total number of romances in half for this Just use Jade Empire or "fixed" ME1 formula (with bi Kaidan) or variations of those. All options covered with less resources more equally distributed and freed up for other sections of the game while avoiding "everyone bi". Done. ? Jade Empire gave straight guys twice the amount of options (if you count the threesome as it's own option it's 3 times). Wut?

and all things being equal I would absolutely agree, but all things are not equal in this game, the resources and energy poured into animation and writing for the romances are desperately needed elsewhere Then just have 4 love interests and make them all bi. I don't see the issue with that. Especially since the scenes before ftb would just be copy and paste.

Yep if the rest of the game was up to snuff I wouldn't care but it's not. Those resources really could've gone to other places. Gonna get hella falck for this probably, but I seriously think they should have cut the total number of romances in half for this Bi Liam, Vetra, Peebee and Jaal and have ftb for the sex scenes would've been fine. Especially if they dropped the flings.

I find it really weird that people are saying that Cora & PeeBee love scenes with Male Ryder is pornography. I mean, have you actually seen pornography ? Usually, if the pornography in question concerns a man and a woman, typically these actions can be observed (in no particular order): 1) Man sucking woman's breasts. 2) Woman giving the man a blowjob, sometimes accompanied with what you call titty-fucking. 3) Man giving woman a cunnilingus, sometimes accompanied with what you call finger fucking. 4) Man and woman have sex in multiple positions. 5) Man climaxes inside the woman's vagina or inside her mouth or on her face and breasts. That the run-of-the-mill pornography sequence. I have not touched on hardcore pornography or even hentai. I watched the love scenes and they are not pornographic, not even remotely. Sorry to be blunt about it but it is what it is. If anything, you could even make the point that Bioware played the egalitarian card properly in this specific context. For example, with Cora's love scene we get to see Cora's ass, Ryder's ass, Cora's breasts and Ryder's chest. No vagina or penis shown. In my opinion, credit should be given where its due - Bioware stepped up their game and took a leaf out of The Witcher 2. The sex scenes for Cora and PeeBee is mature and tasteful, not pornographic. Also, it is a welcome relief to be rid of underwear and pants in a sex scene. At the same time, I should also point out that Bioware should have given the same treatment to the romace scenes of othet sexualities - Like Gil and Suvi's love scenes. It's still overly explicit (imo) and those resources could have been better spent on areas the game is clearly lacking in. Objectifying men and women equally is not a standard of egalitarianism I care to follow. Yep if the rest of the game was up to snuff I wouldn't care but it's not. Those resources really could've gone to other places.

Watched the Cora and Peebee sex scenes... THIS is where resources went instead of facial animations and alternate appearances!!?? Why? Seriously WHY??? It's so fucking dumb. A FTB would've worked just as well.

She can be a goofball without looking like she's grinning while talking about how X is dead. Did that happen in demo? Cause I can't remember her smiling when she talked about X being dead. She was sad. One of the reviewers in my country pointed that PC version has less quality animations compared to consoles but works smoother than on standard PS4 (when it comes to PS4 he said it's better if you have a PRO version). Xbox version worked fine on both standard and S. No idea if this is true, but... who knows. Yep that looked like a grin to me honestly. It was awkward.

I wish they'd drop this open world shit. It kills the quality of their games.
Just give us linear shit like in ME2 and focus purely on the characters (mostly because the main plot tends to be kind of shit too) and that's all I want. Cause they clearly can't do open worlds correctly and trying to makes the things they usually do well suffer.

seriously that Cora animation was perfection. I'd rather have FTB for that and have FemRyder not grinning all the time. But fRyder is an awkward goofball I really like how different personalities the twins have. She can be a goofball without looking like she's grinning while talking about how X is dead.

That's even more lulzy than Cortez's pitch black room. Good grief. Ha! I remember when I once romanced Steve and his ''sex scene'' (yeah right) was so fu***** dark that I was like WTH just happened to my display?! LOL But it was always like that in the actual game Once I was thinking that Steve was actually black guy LOL Yeah my first reaction was "good fucking grief why is it so dark?!? Were they that ashamed!" lmao

No idea, every person that I read said that it's censored and fade to black Yes, I heard that even when they kiss you don't actually see it, because of their hands blocking the view lol That's even more lulzy than Cortez's pitch black room. Good grief.

I'm starting to think they put all their effort into the sex scenes, and forgot the rest of the game seriously that Cora animation was perfection. I'd rather have FTB for that and have FemRyder not grinning all the time.

2 and a half more hours before I can jump in. I'm tapering my expectations but honestly ME3 was a 70 game (really the only good part was fucking Tuchanka) for me so maybe this'll be better? Nah, 80 even if thanks to combat gameplay alone which was easily the best in the series. And based MP I don't play MP (and actually that shit effecting the ending just pissed me off. Thank fuck that was patched) so yeah it was in the 70s for me.

If ME going under means DA comes out faster than fine let it burn.
ME should've been shelved after ME3 anyway.

How the hell they managed to make it worse than DAI after those 5 fu***** years? I mean DAI was their first game on Frostbite engine and they did make it in 3 years, and it had 9 companions with multiple romance options (at least 2 for each gender). Overall DAI was better looking characters, hell even better facial animations, I did not even complained about DAI animations once! This game should have been delayed Of all the things I criticized DAI about , the animation, character designs and the romance quality was never one of them. This IP should never have been handed over to their B team, a team which has never made a full game before might I add. They know how valuable the mass effect name is so why didn't they have their best working on it? Why did they risk it? It makes no sense to me at all. Probably because the main team was done with it especially after the abuse over the endings. I don't blame them. I don't know why EA didn't shelve the series for some time when most of the old team wasn't working on it.

ugh the game's reviews are pretty crap. I'm not sure I want to pay the price I did for it >_> especially not since they'll be a fire sale in like 2 months. It's getting decent reviews, just not '' omg GOTY '' reviews, and not reviews that are on par with the rest of ME series. The release of BotW certainly doesn't help the reviews lmao, since this game will indefinitely be compared to BotW one way or another. yeah that's my issue. If it was I'd be fine with it. Then again I did buy DA2 on release so I'm used to BW screwing me.
