Its about the whole attitude that leads to changes like this and ends up with what we got in Andromeda where everyone has potato faces.
I like having sexiness in my escapism. Personally I could not care less whether they keep Miranda's butt shot or not but its part of the trend that needs to be squashed.
The DLC is available so you can give her a sort of almost armor as soon as you get her back to the ship. I like the look of it, very cyberounk like though I felt all mission outfits should have been real armor.
Eh, even her DLC outfit isn’t an armor, since it’s just her wearing a tank top and sleeveless jacket. I just wish they all had one set of armor or fully sealed outfit for missions. When on the ship or safe ports, sure wear whatever, but then have them in lore-appropriate attire for missions.
Well there is a reason I called it a sort of almost armor, it had like buller proof vest vibes which is something but in a wolrd of full head to toe hardened armor is inadequate. And I agree on mission they should have all been in standard mass effect armor.

I don’t think anyone is debating the removal of the original outfits completely, just a few more options to choose from, when in combat.
Don't worry, I'm sure sexual predator Femshep (Jacob / James at Citadel DLC) will be fine...
Another reason Citadel was terrible.
That one is a pet peeve of mine. When sexual assault happens to a male its funny. Though it was not jacob she was a predator to still get a dude drunk and have sex with him is skeeze crap, and isn't a funny scene. GTA5 was the worst with it, they virtually had a laugh track running every time the inbred looking dude raped a guy.
This is what I like to hear! I hope they add new hair style options for male Shepard too.
I also can't recall what kind of casual outfit Shepard had in ME1. But I'm pretty sure you couldn't change it. That's another small improvement I would like to see.
The new Black hairstyles (cornrows, hi top fade, perhaps more) are definitely available for male Shepard. You can see how the fade looks in this comparison:
I think there's a decent chance they'll unlock all hairstyles and makeup options across gender, but no news on that front.

The LE pic is on the left. There is no equivalent to a fade in the OT, it automatically converts the "AUM" in the face-code to "AUG".

I worked on some of these games.
The shots being changed were dumb as fuck at the time.
They didn’t pull off the “femme fatale” motif, the conversation didn’t fit, and it turned dramatic moments into outright comedy.
This isn’t censorship. Mac wrote the damn thing.

I hope that some of the improvements in the CC are also in regards of beard options and quality. Given the return of the code system and the possibility to change the appearance at least at the start of each game, if I’d go towards creating a custom Shepard, I’d love to make him look different, slightly older, and with different hair and beard styles across the games.
yes because the butt shots is what made the story great.
No, they were ridiculous. Eye rolling. Aimed at teenage boys. But so what? Sex sells. Women who feel threatened by that need to get over themselves. I did.
They had one job. Brush up the visuals and add all DLC.
But nooo, this is 2021, so we gotta get rid of the naughty. It's evil. Sex and desire are evil.
Ugh.
Actually, this is my biggest gripe with Cyberpunk. Women are incredibly sexualized and portrayed like objects- which is perfectly fine because that's the world of Cyberpunk- BUT the men were left alone or even censored. Scenes where men were previously nude and used as objects were replaced or dignified with boxers when women weren't. It was incredibly skewed and the theme of Cyberpunk was ruined. Both genders should've been exploited for overall corporate gain/greed. Take Alt and Panem for example. Butts, boobs and vajayjays everywhere. Men? Nah, they can shower with their underwear on.
BTW the difference between Panam and Miri is that CDPR doesn't have multiple cut scenes during serious moments focused right on her ass.
Are you serious ? She got more shots from the back then you can even imagine.
Look, no one here is complaining that there are butt shots from Miranda. It is the timing of those shots. Serious conversation versus flirt/sex scene. One detracts from the mood, while the other adds to it. What about that is so hard for you butt people to understand? I don't care either way- it doesn't ruin the game for me, but the change is welcome and sensible.
Also, the only reason you have tons of Panem butt shots is because you pervishly place your V there. I approached Panem and others from the side and butts were never in my face. Only time I had to see butts were appropriately during sex scenes, to which men typically were undersexualized compared to their female counterparts, I might add.

UGH why can't Bioware remove the fact that Jacob cheats on you? The ONLY black romance option and he cheats on you. I'm pretty sure while folks like Josh Sawyer are patting Bioware on the back for removing a "horrible" thing like Miranda's butt shot, terrible things like what Jacob does to femshep remains.

I do find it weird that almost nobody mentioned that, especially given the fact that he’s a black man. I do think however, that post release we’d see a lot of complaints.
It’s sad, if we consider the his loyalty mission, and what his father did.

Which was a betrayal of his character arc, I don't care if people find him boring that was plain wrong what Bioware did. I can't believe they did a thing like that, It made me think at the time that they never cared about diversity, they just cared about APPEARING that they care about diversity. And that's wrong with society today, it's all about looking good but not actually doing good.

Wait, how did people wanting sensible sexiness for all genders and all orientations result in the potato faces we got in Andromeda?
Nobody sane pulls off weird stunts when they're conducting serious business, aka competitions...or combat, when your life is on the line.
You wanna talk to me about realism in a world where people fling shit around with their mind?
Why not? There is lots of realistic stuff in it so there is stuff to discuss.
Nobody cares about whether it is practical or not. It's a video game. Go nuts.
I'm nobody? If we abandon tons of practical things in the game just like that and go nuts, the game would be all over the place, which is a sign that there is LOTS of stuff in the game that was designed to be practical. And I want one more.
If you do care about an imaginary woman, in space, that can manipulate the mass of the objects around her, wearing heels on the battlefield, you have way too much free time. I just enjoy it.
Well, cool story bro, I don't enjoy it. Also, thinking about art choices is a sign that I have too much time? What? Where the hell is that considered a thing? In North Korean gulags?
