3 Sara's,2 PeeBee's,no Scott  I'll happily trade you a Funko of Scott for one of those McFarlane figures of Sara. Exactly my thoughts They could have "sacrificed" one or two Sara Funko in order to have one of Scott and we could have one McFarlane figure of Sara WE COULD HAVE THEM BOTH!! WHY THE HELL NOT??? |

He was built in the milky way, though, which is illegal. What are they going to do about it? Follow, and write a ticket? Impose fines? Deactivate SAM? AI research is carried out by Synthetic Insights on Noveria. We know neither by whom nor where SAM was actually developed, or if the Council sanctioned it. The Council doesn't have jurisdiction over the entire Milky Way.  It looks like the implants that make SAM work were developed by a 'Dr. Ellen Ryder' - who's almost certainly mum, right? - while SAM itself, according to the dialogue that went along with this slide, is Alec's creation. (To be clear, I'm totally with you on the legality here being largely a nonissue. We know the Council looked the other way on AI research as long as it was conducted in such a way that they could plausibly deny any knowledge of/responsibility for it, and I imagine that goes doubly so when you're developing something for use in another galaxy.) |

Because the Sarahs are variations of the same model. If those pops are successful, I can see fans asking for Cora, Scott and other characters; then Pop Funko would make them. |

Kirky @kirkyv Are those training options unrelated to the backstories discussed in the briefing video? pbs.twimg.com/media/C3H3ZLeWIAAvflo.jpgIan S. Frazier @tibermoonCorrect, your training is chosen by the player. Rough backstory is based on which twin you are (see vid).

Still though, an AI having direct access to and the ability to manipulate the various nerve clusters and circulatory systems of implanted hosts… sounds an awful lot like those cyborg aliens during the Prothean cycle that were 'hacked' by the Reapers and turned into thralls. I mean what's to stop SAM, should it get upset with a particular team member, from stopping their heart? And this thing being practically in charge of all the most combat experienced members of the Initiative's crew? |

And this thing being practically in charge of all the most combat experienced members of the Initiative's crew? It's not that hard to imagine that the AI will be shackled to stop SAM from going all Overlord and turning everyone into organic bateries.  Just remember that EDI had the same security protocols in place. Also as stated before the Council does let some AI research to happen (remember ME1 and Synthetic insights). |

Well, that sucks. Were you hoping for more backstories? Yes, or at least have those two be interchangeable. But no, we are stuck with one background for one sex. |

Is it just me or does Jaal (or the alien I presume to be Jaal) look like a humanoid cross between a lion and an octopus?
I like the trailer and briefing video, though I agree that the editing of the trailer was a little off-putting. I don't think we will get the extended gameplay footage until at least the end of February but I might be wrong. I've seen enough to know that I want to play it immediately on release so I've already preordered it.

Quoting myself here, but i was just wondering if the "big T" in the first picture isn't actually a parked ship from the same model than the one on the second gif image.  |

Could have tweaked any backstory exclusive dialogue so we could choose. A bookworm Ryder would have been more my style. Replayability for this game would have gone up too for me. |

I'm still waiting to see how exactly the whole situation gets handled in-game. I'm not going to assume the sky is falling because something is presented in a way that I don't like, but at the same time it doesn't really make a lot of sense for a character-driven RPG to lock your player character into one background.

Or maybe Tee-Tee?
Tee-hee.
I should go.

Perhaps it's because they don't feel like having to switch the backgrounds for the sibling you aren't playing? Thing is in the trilogy it was a story rpg element that people liked. Just strange that they are removing it. At least we can take this as a sign that our background is going to likely be mentioned a bit more since they don't have as much variation. |
