Ain't nothing wrong with bikini armor.awfull as the bikini armor mods in Elder Scrolls games
Bikini Armor is all good, but a lot of the TES mod stuff looks like it would have to be bolted on to stay in place.Ain't nothing wrong with bikini armor.awfull as the bikini armor mods in Elder Scrolls games
ME3 is a betrayal of the series as it very shifted the tone, ME2 was ... different but it was kinda like The Dirty Dozen were you assemble a crew to take on a mission, I am more forgiving on ME2 simply because it was still within the same overall tone.
Yes, I'm still really pissed about the all-synth soundtrack being changed to standard Hollywood orchestral drivel. That alone probably could've saved 2 in my eyes. Fuckin' lower wards, man.
no.From what I remember the writing was a solid craft again
But what if I find clowns just as boring and retarded as BW writing?lol, what is this a reference to
From what I could tell, the ending didn't resolve any of the ingame mysteries...
Who killed the AI director.
Who really funded the AI.
What is the Kett Empire.
Why were the remnant terra forming the cluster and why and how did they make the angaran.
Who were the remnant.
Who attacked the remnant.
What is the scourge and how does it work like a space tentacle monster.
Where is the quarian ark and what happened to it.
They are were planning a ridiculous number of sequels and dlc, but with this reception and most likely mediocre sales, I'm not seeing it.
For those who have played it, just how much is it like the horrendous DA:I?
I'm assuming the combat is way better, but is there that rotten MMO feel with fetch quests drowning everything? And that total disconnection from any fun via chore-like filler making up the majority of the game?
Best open world game I have played by far. Seriously.
The team that worked on the original Mass Effect trilogy is working(4 years already) on a game named "Dylan", an action adventure with a bigger budget then Mass Effect Andromeda. Source:Vg 24
Thats shows again how important the Mass Effect franchise is for Bioware and Ea. After the first game, the lead writer departed to Swotor, and after Mass Effect 3, Andromeda was developed
by their c-team...

You need to put a quote like that into context. Have you played, for example, Witcher 3 or Skyrim. Okay, I can't think of any other open world games (that I would contemplate playing).

Bikini armor is just as realistic as any other kind of female armor because historically speaking, there were no female soldiers to wear armor.
One might also argue that a chastity belt was the most common piece of 'armor' worn by women, making bikini armor the most realistic.
Everyone knows that the queen had a custom suit of ceremonial armor and you can always find some women willing to perform extreme entertainment. When your counter-argument relies on such examples, it isn't very good.Bikini armor is just as realistic as any other kind of female armor because historically speaking, there were no female soldiers to wear armor.

While most armours would have been made for men, there were instances where women would have historically speaking, been soldiers and/or worn armour. The Roman emperor Severus banned women from participating is gladiator games after a couple hundred years of it going on. Enough artifact sculptures laying around to prove they did fight in the arena too. There were female Scythian nomads also buried with their weapons and armour alongside the men. During the American Civil War it was not unheard of for women to pretend to be young men so they could join and fight (see the Declaration of Independence for names, there are women, who were soldiers, albeit not wearing your medieval-fantasy style armour). One of the old Chinese Dynasties was shook up by a woman after her husband and their rebels were seized and likely tortured to death. She was definitely a soldier with light armour who rode horseback. Joan of Arc never fought, but also wore armour. Lots of historical examples out there where women were indeed soldiers and also wore armour.
It doesn't change the fact that bikini armour is unrealistic though.

It appears that you mistook some colloquial language in a funny forum post for a legal document. Find an example that is more than half-of-one-percent valid before climbing that high horse.Everyone knows that the queen had a custom suit of ceremonial armor and you can always find some women willing to perform extreme entertainment.

Yet you said ". . . no female soldiers to wear armor." That implies an absolute. I also mentioned examples of females who would have been soldiers before the modern era. The Scythians weren't entertainment, they defended themselves. Neither were the repressed Chinese, and that was a soldiering example. American women fought in the Civil War. You don't understand history. The Roman case isn't even a matter of just "find women," plenty of them were forced to as any other slave.
Also, I gave no ceremonial examples. You gave the ceremonial example, which makes it evident that you have no clue what you are talking about as you just proved my point. If you want to crawl into the territory of realism, then most video-games have terrible representations of how combat with armour and the weapons used would actually work. Point of fact, not all armour even has to be plate. In fact, most armour would NOT have been plate if you take the sheer amount of different armour out there. More men protected by leather in history than plating any day if you want that scale to go off of.

"A woman wore a leather vest into battle one time" isn't a great example of female plate armor. Or are you arguing that men in games should have full plate and women should cap out at leather brigandines? Why do you care so much about this?
