Look...this is no different an expression than saying "my legs are tired" when someone wishes to imply that they are no longer capable of movement. In this case it's being incapable of small-talk and smiling.
This is just you refusing to accept a semantic dictionary that is inconsistent with your own. I wonder how you managed to read novels that introduced phrases that make no sense out of context such as "Our blades are sharp" when asked about being ready.

It's not clumsy writing when it emulates real people. This is nothing more than overanalyzing an incidental moment of speech. It is when nobody talks like that in anormal context. This is why that particular line stands out so much. I wager we all get her meaning, but the way she expresses herself is still out of place. How is the context normal to begin with? This is someone who 1) had been stranded for 14 months 2) lost all hope 3) dealt with insurgents and rebellions 4) just found out about the death of the Pathfinder
You telling me that sputtering expressions like "my face is tired" as a result of being too pissed off to care about smiles and small-talk is out of context? Have normal people like us ever been in that situation?

It's rarely used, and when it is it's usually referring to someone smiling or otherwise having to put on a friendly act longer than they'd like. Literally everyone complains about her being a bitch so the line still makes no sense. Just because other people think she's a bitch, doesn't mean she thought she was being a bitch.

We are probably over thinking it. Maybe she's supposed to just be over tired and babbling nonsense. In which case she shouldn't be trying to have a professional meeting with new arrivals.. but anyway Yeah, maybe she's just on the brink of burnout. I know I've said and done stupid things when overly tired. Still is clumsy writing, if you ask me. It's not clumsy writing when it emulates real people. This is nothing more than overanalyzing an incidental moment of speech.

I understood it as "my face is so tired I can't be bothered to smile" which explains her not being in the mood for chatter, being grumpy, and having a hostile introduction to a newcomer.
I didn't even bother to process it as anything other than what it was.

lol @ all the faux outrage. Shitty facial animations are nothing new.
The reason they look "worse" in MEA is that they tried to add more expressions rather than have blank stares half the time.

I think the orange tone is a result of a particular lighting scheme on olive skin tones. In that gif, Reyes looks like a regular Mediterranean guy.

No grunts with Gil? Pre-order cancelled. -- Also Reyes is kinda hot too tbh... might have a fling with him before going to Gil if it's possible ![:o](//storage.proboards.com/6576594/images/aCYreiXWLepPDsSBAqBw.png) )

So depending on geography, the percentage of gays is between 2%-11% of the population (or thereabouts). When it comes to consumers of video games, the percentages are likely the same, perhaps slightly higher. The representation in video games these days when it comes to gay romance and similar seems to go above 2%-10% in comparison to similar content aimed at straight consumers. So what is the complaint about exactly? You're talking in terms of quantity. The concerns being raised are also about quality. Not that I have any qualms about anything myself, especially since they've been improving on every iteration.

Mmm, I'm not really comparing them to other studios really, just my personal taste. I think that it can be done well in a game sometimes, but they overuse it. They do it well enough considering it's a feature and not the focus of the game.

I see. Kinda sucks if you're following the game. Huge risk of spoilers.
I still don't know how I managed to evade spoilers on ME3 for a whole year
I have to admit a small part of me wants to do the same for MEA... cause apparently my rig can barely handle 900p with everything on medium ... probably my driver being shitty
