Maybe a better way to ask the question would be, if ME3 were cast today, who is the Jessica Chobot of today?The CO-STAR thread got me thinking about this. "Diana Allers" was a Jessica Chobot look-alike thrown in as a marketing ploy, a kind of inside-the-industry gag and, I guess, some kind of fanservice, since Jessica Chobot was the host of the, at the time, popular IGN Daily Fix. If you were a Bioware producer and wanted to do a similar look-alike placement today, who would it be? Remember, this is mostly a marketing ploy. Naomi Kyle?Ashley Jenkins?Amy Shira Teitel?PewDiePie?Someone else?

The day when Twitch and YT spots like IGN Daily Fix are merged into a single unified continuum of T&A talking-heads is not that far in the future. I guess some might argue we are already there.

Here's hoping they refrain from putting anyone in the game for marketing purposes. It's akin to obnoxious and blatant product placement. No thanks.

You got to be kidding I would hope that BW feel confident enough in their own game quality as to avoid puerile marketing techniques like the ME3 Diana Allers thing. Almost EVERYONE hated her so I don't see why they should shoot themselves in the foot by doing that thing again. No thank you, I enjoy a game much more when its image is not tainted by pointless marketing.

given the voice actor competition script has a reporter called Jessica who seems to fancy Ryder then I'm a guess that it will be her....

given the voice actor competition script has a reporter called Jessica who seems to fancy Ryder then I'm a guess that it will be her.... Jordan, not Jessica. The thread is also about the actors, not the characters, and I think VO contest winners don't fit the description given in the OP. Regardless, the characters from the scripts will likely not make it into the game, just like with the DAI voice-over contest. The scripts were drafted specifically for the contest and the winners played different characters.

While she's not technically in the gaming industry since he's primarily known for being a cosplayer, Jessica Nigri has shown she has the vocal talent with how excellent she has been at voicing Cinder in Rwby, could cosplay her Mass Effect character or others at events for easy marketing and definitely would meet the fanservice requirement (if they were going for that).

I only recognize Ashley Jenkins from The Patch and The Know. I only recognize PewdiePie because he's some all big huge and famous youtube star. I've watched a couple'a his vids. Wasn't impressed.

Hopefully, nobody. I still maintain that even if the idea of a reporter inside the ship made some sense in ME3, it was probably the most pointless npc in the entire game. Better use those resources elsewhere. Naomi Kyle pls BioWare, ty. That's her? why does the image have a Playboy watermark?

Naomi (first chick) is from IGN. I watch here and there The Know so Ashley sounds familiar. Btw, is that the chick with the HUGE breasts? or Am I mixing stuff from some other YT show? Same opinion about Pewdiepie. 3rd girl, no idea who she is.

Yah, it's not all that uncommon for females of youtube to do shoots for playboy now. I think Meg Turney (of formerly RoosterTeeth and before that SourceFed fame) did one, as well as Dodger (Press Heart To Continue, I think?). Ummm, I dunno, I listen to their opinions now a days rather than look at their sweater puppies. I mean, I guess. Sucks getting older. Ashley Jenkins is all over the place, she was on The Amazing Race (one of the network TV shows). She was one of the original Frag Dolls, a competitive team. So, if you really wanna know, just google her. (Knows waaaaay too much about Ashley Jenkins)

I'm not exactly immersed in Internet and popular culture. How important is it to have characters ported in from real life? It really didn't add anything to ME2 for me to have a poorly-mapped lady from "Chuck".
And the Chobot lady in ME3...enough said.
Do we need the pop culture injections into the game? Do we want them?
