Probably old, but it bears repeating that animations are far from the only thing wrong with the graphics.

neck still looks funny and she's still a mexican 2/10

Definitely old, but also definitely worth repeating.

you guys don't understand bioware wanted to purposely make ugly characters because that's how people are in real life!

I just wanna ask everyone who made this game two questions: Have you seen a human?

Yes.

In a French-Canadian Starbucks.

Humanity has risen! pls comment

What some random person did in Reddit:



Five fucking years.

hello darkness my old friend

I think lyrics from The Boxer are more relevant to Bioware and Biodrones:

I am just a poor boy
Though my story's seldom told
I have squandered my resistance
For a pocketful of mumbles
Such are promises
All lies and jests
Still a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest

How can this "Initiative" have an AI, if AIs in the milky way galaxy were labelled as "dangerous" and illegal?

 

[salaciousbcrumb]

No one could ever ask for a better three-headed monkey.

The video clip wasn't mine,I got that when I was looking on neogaf to see what they'd stolen

mind you, I'm pissed they haven't bothered yet with the poetry clips and the not-Jacob fart clip.

One of the reasons they went out there as I understand it.

I am honestly surprised that Bioware and EA haven't tried to do the same marketing trick that Sony tried doing with Fembusters. ""Buy the game to make all those racist, sexist, homophobes, xenophobes, transphobes, something-phobes, cis, hetero, man-children mad!" Although I am kinda excepting them to do this soon though.

It's assumed because Bioware is their "LGBT" studio. It gives them the pink star points. Go watch that "hate is not a game" video they did, half of it is The Sims and the other half is Bioware.

 

[salaciousbcrumb]

It took hundreds of people longer to make ME:A than it took Michelangelo to paint the Sistine Chapel.

And yet he only netted around $52,000 for his work. Imagine what he could've made applying the proper methods!

Oh yeah, a lot of that shit is in The Sims and their community. Doesn't help that EA has been pandering to the Tumblr crowd with The Sims such as removing the gender binary in the CAS and allowing you to finally make that non-cis, gender fluid transsexual that we all have been dying to make.

you guys don't understand bioware wanted to purposely make ugly characters because that's how people are in real life!

Is there any truth to that? Did they say that in an interview at some point? Because this level of incompetence is mind boggling. Literally every character is ugly and/or deformed.

Just take a look at some tumblr art.

If you look at the Bioware fans they are all saying the characters are acting like robots because they are robots in the end game...:D:D:D:D:D:D

And they all look like hipster cunts ideas of heros and talk like tumblr landwhales because there is a DLC that makes you and all the aliens have sex and drink space tizer and turns you into a pink amorphous blog blob that saves the galaxy by getting fat and expanding faster than the universe while writing for kotaku and the huffington post.

 

[Charles Eli Cheese]

It looks kinda like they intentionally made them all look like junkies

 

[Vorark]

Its funny but I really want to play this to enjoy the train wreck. Its to bad they want money for it.

This game is quickly approaching "So Bad - It's Good" territory..
I had zero interest in the game.. this Thread is making me wanna buy it though.

Wait for the CPY approved version.

This may just be the Heaven's Gate of AAA development, at least as far as PR is concerned.

Maybe because Ghostbusters flopped?

I guess we now know why Bio closed down their forums a few months back...

 

[a cut of domestic sheep prime]

So yeah, the "Tempest" instead of the Normandy, Pathfinder instead of Commander, all dialog options are weak, no renegade mode.

Everything about the original ME screamed military. You even had the option to be a total pro-human racist in ME1&2. I think I remember one of the Bioware devs even talked positively about the being able to take a "softer tone" with the Patherfinder's dialog than they did with Shepard. It feels like the series got co-opted along the way by people who hate the hard military feel of the game and so decided to subtly gut those aspects.

Most of the biodrones have moved here: http://bsn.boards.net/

And they are either in complete meltdown or denial.
