Depends on who is putting on the bikini.

[GlyphGryph]

* GlyphGryph puts on sexiest bikini

Referend me! Oh yeah!

[Shinotsa]

I am greatly ashamed at my lack of facepalm pictures to post in response.

* GlyphGryph drapes a Shinotsa.

I would like to vote hells yes on the Shinotsa refendum.

[Shinotsa]

Hey hey hey, let's not get crazy now. I'm an Anglo-canadian from Quebec. I detest refyourendums

[Lord Dullard]

Meh. Fact: homophobes exist. Fact: Bioware sucks (you don't need to be homophobic to suck). Fact: The last several games produced by Bioware have been utter crap, and I couldn't care less what kind of hubbub they cause.

...
Fact: Two out of three of those "Facts" are actually Opinions.

Yeah, but... no, not really.

For instance, it is not technically a 'fact' that FATAL is the most terrible roleplaying game ever created.

And yet, it is a fact that it is the most terrible roleplaying game ever created.

In other words: yes, I agree with your assessment. But because EA sucks so badly, I won't change my own. I consider it a flat-out fact that EA sucks, that their products (of late) suck, and that anyone who holds an opposing opinion is... well, I'm not sure, actually - perhaps they're taking some sort of really good medication that renders the actual enjoyability of the games they're playing meaningless because WOAH CHECK OUT THOSE PRETTY COLORS DUDE.

Reality check: People might enjoy things you do not.


I mean, I think the live action Transformers movies were garbage, but there are plenty of people who willingly watch and enjoy them. I don't think they're all insane and/or stupid.

[Lord Dullard]

Yeah, you're right.

I'm just bitter about Bioware. After KOTOR II it's all been downhill. There was a time when I would have listed them among the best-of-the-best of commercial developers.

P.S. Mass Effect 3 players; if you don't want gay sex, don't hit on other guys/gals.

Now if only the rest of the internet would get this message.

[Bauglir]

KOTOR II wasn't Bioware.

This is totally irrelevant, but I am nothing if not a pedant at this time of night. At any rate it seems fairly obvious to me that hate mail is unwarranted, and I'm torn between concluding that it's a publicity stunt and that it's a legitimate overreaction. Has the Westboro Baptist Church gotten involved yet?

[lemon10]

Its probably a bit of both. They are probably getting some hate mail about this (because major corporations get hate mail about pretty much everything on the internet), and figured they could make it into a publicity thing.

Its not really fair to complain about bioware as a company either (after about 2007ish or so), because they aren't in control of what they do, they are a subsidiary of EA games, and I am sure that at least some (if not the vast majority) are due to EA and their meddling.

What's really funny is that that made sense both in the context of the discussion and in reference to the original topic.

"We want multipyler!"
"But EA... we're making a game with rich storytelling, a moving plot, and an imaginative world full of exploration! We don't have time to spend on multiplayer aspects without significantly impacting the single player game!"
"Cut exploration! Cut innovation! MOAR NINJAZ AND MULTIPYLER"

This is more or less how I imagine the meetings to go. It's much better than realizing that they're actually corporate geniuses who strong arm their way into billions of dollars a year.

Lord dullard, that link to FATAL,well, thank you. Jesus.
Back on topic, I don't know why having Homosexual relations is such a big deal. I mean, if ME3 was so lauded for it, it shouldn't be. It should be the norm for games with romance. It Should be just Expected.
