And that's nice. They've found a good balance IMHO. All sex scenes in DA:I were tasteful in their usage of nudity to show the freedom of two people just being their naked selves together or to show vulnerability or comedy even. Witcher 2 was on the graphic side, as is GoT mostly because of the subject matter, but i' think we're at a good spot where it's not shameless to depict sex in gaming though it is still very awkward when my video-game character is suddenly seen humping his love interest in Wolfenstein The New order for example. You gotta strike that balance between gross and too censored.

To me, obsession is like to be completely preoccupied and consumed with one particular thing to the exclusion of most anything else. That's pretty hard core and though we have some passionate folks here, I think most of us have lives and other interests as well. But who knows, I could be wrong. I don't know anyone really well here so I guess it's possible there are some obsessed folks. I just don't think it's as pervasive as people think. While I agree that people are not literally obsessed (like crazy, 24/7 obsessed) people are having a very high need to know the romance options, that for people (like me) that don't have that kind of feelings about it, it does seem like an obsession. Just take the fact someone are complaining that we only have one Li revealed and people are getting upset that Bioware are not revealing more, even after all the tweets that Bioware have told that they won't. Well, it's Valentine's Day so lots of people were hoping there would be some nugget of info on the topic even though they said they wouldn't. We are a hopeful bunch.

Prejudice about gaming has changed. Last gen was the point where gaming truly broke into the mainstream I think and Mass Effect sex-controversy happened before that shift. We're also getting naked butts again since DA:I and Geralt motorboats his women in Witcher 3 without anybody in the media making a fuss over it. In fact, Obama praised the game and that didn't start any stir or hypocrisy about how Witcher was a sex simulator or something. This, and shows like Game of Thrones that are pretty graphic but so mainstream. Proprietary shows that Amazon and Netflix produce nowadays. Nudity is kind of getting normalized everywhere.Unfortunately.

I'll give you Liara the Writer's Pet(hello PeeBee) but what was the other alien that had more content than humans? No, I'm sure Cora and PeeBee have more in-depth romances compared to other possible romance options for those complaining about those two. Tali and Garrus had the most content in their friendship/romance arcs, because they appeared as full squadmates in all three games. I expect Vetra to have equal content to Cora/PB if she is indeed an LI. Jaal as well, though I know you're specifically talking about the female characters. I'd imagine both male and female Ryder'swill have a romance that's at least equal in cfontent I'd imagine Cora for Scott and Liam for Sara will be he main ones.

I'm newly signed up here, but have been lurking for a while. I have to say, I'm glad I don't give a shit about romances in a video game. The amount you people obsess over this stuff is...concerning. I think "obsessing" is a bit harsh. Focused? Yes - because I like romances and I like to talk about them. Obsessed? Nah - I can't be bothered to obsess about anything nowadays. Takes too much time and energy. Ain't nobody got time for that.I know I don't.

Well that is good to know there is stil a lot of questions about how the gameplay works I think. What are they? I mean, I've been pretty attentive, from what I've read of the different articles -- summaries of articles, even -- I feel like I have a good idea of how the gameplay works. There might be little questions, but nothing that will make or break the game for me -- all that was pretty much handled in the TGA trailer.

It's been posted here before, but thanks for reposting. It's been the only good thing Bioware-related today despite them having nothing to do with it.

Nudity is kind of getting normalized everywhere.Unfortunately. Why unfortunately? Do I have to remind you about Traynor showering in her underpants in Mass Effect 3? I downloaded a nude mod to fix that. Also, from a German Perspective, the nudity and sex in Bioware games would be rated for 12+ in Germany. In fact the entire series is generally rated higher in the US and PEGI than in Germany...which is very rare for games.

Shinobi's comments are so general that they are downright useless. Seriously? Videos coming up in the next couple of days? Doesn't take a genius to make such an educated guess. His statements on the upcoming "flood" of info from, I believe, IGN turned out to be pretty shaky as well.
Do I even need to cover his response on the second question? Like MEA would have a less developed CC...

Rachel @rachelnotwit In space no one can hear you... bang? (I'm lying, they *totally* can.) #space #prettyGoodBanging #HappyValentinesDay ,.-~*´¨¯¨`*·~-.¸-(_MEA_)-,.-~*´¨¯¨`*·~-.¸
All this banging is getting tedious. I prefer more info on the game itself.
Well, the good news is that there is no controversy with the constant banging tweets in ME:A as opposed to the Nier: Automata game and their BUTT controversy.
I thought it annoyed only me... I know it's valentines day but still...

There might be little questions, but nothing that will make or break the game for me -- all that was pretty much handled in the TGA trailer. the power bit's mostly and all that how you cycle through and use your various abilities as you unlock them. Are we limited to 3 powers per profile or can we select more? That sort of thing mostly. Things like that haven't been fullyexplained yet and they need to be I think. I'm happy withwhat I've been seeing but I still have questions and if possible I'd like answers to match them.
