Gil Brodie - Chief Engineer (Official Thread)

Here you go, dear:



Boo‏@beatricedelrio
Please, please, please show us Gil Brodie. I hear he's hot.

Ian S. Frazier ‏@tibermoon
I don't know if we're showing him pre-ship or not, but I hope so. I'm quite happy with how he turned out.



Odd considering that I could have sworn it was Ian who said that we would see him before launch.  Anyone feel free to correct me on this, though.

I'm hoping he really does turn out to be the ginger sex god we all deserve.

Damn it, I'll have serious hard decisions who to romance after my first playthrough.

Welcome! I'm still waiting on an answer as to who's writing Gil.

I asked a couple of devs who's writing Gil, but I didn't get an answer. I sent a tweet today to Neil Pollner, asking him if he's writing Gil.

My theory is that nearly every writer wrote 1 squadmate and at least 1 major NPC. And we don't know who else Pollner is writing, and I don't think Liam's writer has a twitter account.

While my, as witchcocktor calls it: 'gil-boner' weakened a bit from the conflicting tweets on a pre-ship reveal, I remain optimistic overall since folks that have seen our Brodie depict him as hot and handsome. Even Ian, while frustratingly news flimsy, typically has good content to share- and for someone who doesn't come off as all too interested or too deeply invested in the looks, styles or features of the male characters, seems pretty proud of Brodie.

"I'm quite happy with how he turned out."

While I still have yet to see if Ian Frazier, those other game reviewers and I have a similar definition of what "hot and handsome" is, I can only hope to sit optimistically and daydream about a fiercely committed muscular bearded ginger who loves machines and lubricants. 

And Sheryl is writing Vetra and Suvi. I'm running outta writers I can think of.
Maybe Drack's writer perhaps? IDK.

Drack's writer left Bioware. I hope she didn't write Gil, since I don't know what that means for him in future titles if his writer left Bioware.

Perhaps! Who knows if she's even allowed to say so? But we should try.

I just wanted to say I really appreciate all the people that go to twitter for this info. I have an account, but for whatever reason I am just chicken shit when it comes to approaching people I don't know there.

But is winter in fact coming? (too soon? Too late?)

Cassandra had a different writer at first, but (she I think) quit and David Gaider finished the work.
