They should replace female Shepard's renegade dialogue.

I was thinking, a lot of these renegade dialogue scenes that involve Shepard intimidating people and showing physical violence work effectively because Shepard is a physically imposing male. 
When we see the exact same reaction from various NPCs while controlling a female Shepard, it just comes across as a bit out of place and unrealistic.  Just how intimdiating can a rather squat looking woman be?

I think for Mass Effect 3 they should replace the renegade dialogue choices with "seduction" dialogue choices similar to what we saw in Vampire The Masquerade:Bloodlines.  For instance, during the interrogation scene with Kelham, rather than threaten Kelham, there should be a "seduce" option where Shepard can say something along the lines of...

"If you tell me what I need to know, I promise to show you some sugar."

If Shepard's "seduction" level is high enough, it will work.

To add even more depth, I think Bioware could add certain items which raise female Shepard's "charm level."

This can include items like seductive makeup, fishnet stockings, slinky dress, etc.

They can even make the "seduce option" an integral part of Kasumi's loyalty mission for female Shepard where Shepard has to obtain Donovan Hock's DNA.  In order for it to work though, Shepard would need to find sexy seductive items.

I think by ignoring gender disparities, Mass Effect is not quite as deep as it could be.  I'm hoping that this is addressed in the sequel, or future DLC/expansion.

1) You are sexist.





2) You can have any stature you want, anybody carrying a gun that shoots nuclear bombs is intimidating.

Ah, I hadn't seen a troll thread from Busomjack in quite a bit. I was getting worried.

It's the same concept as his last big troll thread, though, so only 3/10. Try harder next time.

e: although,

To add even more depth, I think Blizzard could add certain items which
raise female Shepard's "charm level."

is either a nice touch or points toward delicious copypasta.

I'd be intimidated by anyone carrying a tactical nuke on their back.

Ermm...are you trolling? You can't honestly be serious about these suggestions.



That's like saying male shepard paragon should have flowers on his head and be frieeeeennnndddsss with his enemies and have tea and cupcakes and let the reapers indocrinate everyone.



Not all women want to use their sexuality like that and women can be strong especially if they have shotgun to your face.



You = FAIL

Yes, and I find that women are not really intimidating in the sense that you feel like your life is in danger from them and not every dialogue scene involves Shepard using his firearm against an unarmed person. 

I do however find women have the ability to be persuasive when they can effectively use their charm.  It's not like it's some sexist idea I made up or anything, even Dragon Age mentioned this when Lelianna and Morrigan both claimed to have used their feminine charms to lure men into traps.
The beauty of the Mass Effect games is that they let you play Shepard how you see fit, so what is wrong with wanting to play as a femme fatale Shepard who will use her seductive charm as a weapon?

*grabs an handful. Takes an seat next to Mister Mida and Dokarqt.

*whispers*

So is he asking how an squat women who is the first human spectre, Saved the Citadel, has come back from the dead, killed hundreds of geth and Mercs, carries an nuclear launcher on their back not intimidating? If so, this should be good.

Because Shepard is a zombie cyborg marine, not a frilly bard. :)

We're not ragging on you for suggesting that women can use sexuality as a method of getting what they want. We're ragging on you for insinuating that women, even women who are obviously armed to the teeth and famous throughout the galaxy as one of the most badass people organic life has to offer, can't be intimidating. Which is sexist, because they definitely can.

Busomjack wasn't your last troll thread about how femshep should do less damage with melee attacks than maleshep? And now females cant be strong confident characters but must resort to whoring themselves out to get what they want? I take it you have had bad experiences with girls in your life...

Seriously bros, proven troll. Just stop replying and let the thread go peacefully into the graveyard. Last time got 30+ pages and some necroposting, let's not let it get that far.

My Shepard only wants to be sexy to her love interest, anyone else can get a bullet to the brain if they upset her, that is how I want to play it on renegade.
