God fucking dammit BioWare. Next-gen Mass Effect's going to be a full-blown dating simulator at this rate.

I'm okay with your fixed.
You make it sound like that's a bad thing. Why do you hate fun? Or are you just afraid the game won't be BRO-MACHO with said element?
Don't worry Bioware, I'd buy such dating sim at a high price!

There's a difference between creating an epic sci-fi roleplaying shooter with optional romances and marketing a romance game with some sci-fi shooter action to connect the pieces. BioWare blatantly pimping those romances the way they've been doing is just so incredibly :lol.
also, I ain't no BRO-MACHO, I'm a gentleman.

lol...yeah I'm done with this company after ME3. Hell, I'm probably waiting on a sale for ME3 now that I think about it. I was kinda excited for this franchise after 1 but it's become obvious that it's just not for me after the sequel.
I'm finishing this out of some sort of obligation.

Pretty certain, whether they are full party members or just extras like Zaeed and Kasumi is unknown. I would prefer 1 be a DLC extra, with 2 then being a full member. So much potential for that one while the former is just fan service and doesn't need the depth or attention a full member deserves, just being selectable it's enough.

God damn, GAF ME threads among all others here are like those bad neighborhoods you pass through while driving to uptown or work.

Not really impressed with either of those, but not surprised.
Considering the end of ME2, they need an entirely new squad and it's obvious they've run out of ideas.

Fuck off, BW. :/

Bioware have become the industries creepiest developer. Some of their comments on the girls of Dragon Age/Mass Effect are really weird.
Tssspfffr...
Okay, BioWare... Okay.
The more I hear and see the less excited I get.
You could do some really cool things with new squad mates that belong to the other races... Like a bad ass, gun toting Volus or a Biotic Hanar or something (First random thoughts).
I understand that these character models would ofc. be really hard to animate, since they are not the standard size and BW would have to create specific, non interchangeable animation routines.

I hope

To aid the war effort, I mean. And for science.
Also, throwing this out here right now: ME3 will probably have a death scene where
share a creepy moment. Or maybe the other way around, where the roles are reversed, lol. Actually, that would be a perversely interesting way to justify that squadmate's presence on the team.

get together and make precious little killer robot babies. Onscreen.

EDI is critically damaged and about to go offline, and she and Joker

Still, i wont overreact like most of GAF. It's a game from a franchise i like, and i'll play the game day 1. Some of you seem to take all this Bioware stuff a bit too seriously.
make a body for EDI. Should have expected this to happen.

Made EDI fuse with Legion to create some sort of super intelligent Geth who would then UNIFY the Geth to fight the reapers

He's obviously going to buy the CE edition of ME3 and all the useless DLCs that is going to be available at launch.

I have no problems with this at all. Maybe a few too many overreactions going on here though. Remember; videogames are meaningless - wave a magic wand to wipe them all from history and civilisation would remain unchanged. It's just an enjoyable waste of time!

Not when it comes to GAF and Bioware. I honestly think most people here really LOVED Bioware so much in the past, that's why they do take it so damn seriously.
Sorry to disappoint, but they're not. At best, its temporary squadmates or just npcs for sidequests. From what i've heard so far, havent read all the script leaks. Seems like all the permanent squadmates are ME1 or new characters.

Is sex with a robot legal?
Slackbladder said:
I'm just amused that many are jumping up and down like puritanical bible belt over the idea of sexualized video game characters. If video game is an extension of our desire to do some of the impossible things that humans can't do, is it strange to know that some people like the idea of their character having sex with other characters? Or is it because some of the options to sex are not the typical heterosexual vanilla type? Meh, it's a futuristic multi-species world and if it's the end of the world, I'd make sure I've tried all kinds of sexual deviancy. So cum all ye, bisexual, homosexuals, alien-sexuals, android-sexuals, etc.

Do we still need to use spoilers?
Squadmate #1
Squadmate #2
This is just another thing that Bioware is retconning.
Squadmate #1
Why couldn't they come up with some other kind of non-humanoid design like a flying orb or something instead of robotic Tricia Helfer? Hell, make it look like a Centurion Cylon. Oh well, that's Mass Effect: Fanservice.
Squadmate #2
The Protheans are basically the precursors of the galactic civilization of Mass Effect. By encountering and having the Prothean as a squadmate shatters the romance of their status in the first game. They should be left to be mysterious and only realized in ancient artifacts such as the statues on Ilos.
Speaking of those statues, they look nothing like this Prothean. Some have speculated that he is a transition between the Protheans and the Collectors, but like the concept art says, he's been in stasis for over 50,000 years.

There's a difference between certain things being sexual and EVERY THING being sexual. It's like a 14 year old's deviantart harem.

But not everything in the ME games are sexual...in fact, the majority isn't...
What? You didn't noticed the sexy boobs of the Reapers in ME2?
Not when it comes to crew members.
