I still love hearing Hale say:
"Perfectly legal? Yes it is, close the door on your way out"

I love that line. One of my favourites in ME2.

"Liara's not the jealous type ... is she?"

Here's a bit of a humorous something -  The Kelly Effect

[Jane Shepard]

Mikaela in ME1 (first appeared in ME2)


And another FemShep. Eriana (Era if short)

Heh. The uncomfortable nature of that encounter is why Renée was all business with Kelly.

My first inclination is to make characters that have at least a passing resemblence to myself. Like you said, it's a roleplaying preference, and I find it helps with immersion.

I'm pretty sure making yourself is totally impossible with Mass Effect since the feature shapes are static and have limited range. Unless you happen to already look like any of those features, unlikely. I've never tried, I'm mixed race and none of the eye or nose settings even come close.

Most regular looking people do not transfer well to what is possible in games anyhow. They lack nuance and quirky features are easy to lose in translation. Look at Miranda: she is gorgeous in real life, doesn't completely transfer over. She still looks pretty most of the time, but there is still some serious uncanny valley happening

Interesting question. Right now at this moment? No, I love my face as it is, flaws and all. It the only face I's ever known
If I could somehow magically go back in time to before I was born and play god?  Maybe.  Because technically "I" don't exist yet.  Too many variables to think about, need more coffee.  But I doubt many people would say no to being more attractive, and my favorite femsheps are how I see the ideal woman (which is for the record, Monica Bellucci.  Pls refer to my Dragon Age avatar for my favorite character I've ever made, ever.)

RE: Indra; that's Indra right?  Damn, she looks tough.  And I mean that as a compliment.

  It's interesting to see the different approach others take when playing an RPG. When I watched my mother design her ME character her first instinct was to design someone that resembled her. The same with my father. I remember finding that to be odd and I suspect that having some sort of artistic background affects my perspective on this. I see my face everyday in the mirror; I've drawn it plenty of times in the past......what's there to gain in recreating my look in a virtual format? I know that the world I'm playing in is not real so trying to tie in a real world analogue simply doesn't work for me. I would also jump at the chance of recreating how I think I should look. It's a great feeling to not be shackled by what you were lucky (or unlucky) enough to be given at birth; it really is a freedom of expression.

Your parents play ME? That's cool! My mother has never touched a video game in her life *g*
My first femShep looked nothing like me. It didn't cross my mind at all to make her look like me. In fact, all my femSheps have dark hair. It's a lot more fun for me to create a character who looks very different. If I had the choice to play as an alien in ME, I'd pick the alien, not the human. I wonder if having a character who resembles you helps with immersion....I could imagine it having the opposite effect. I'm not going to do a playthrough with my "recreation". She's very boring to look at for me *g* I don't even find her particularily pretty, either. Lol. Even if she looked a lot like me, I'd be put off by Hale's voice. It's not *my* voice! That would just be too weird. It doesn't fit at all, either. The face looks at least 10 years too young. IF you could actually kind of scan your face and body and add your voice, this might be interesting. Might.

By the way, I love Hale's voice!! Although I have to say she sounded better in ME1 somehow. Anybody else think so?? Her voice fits my canon Shep perfectly. I like her paragon lines a lot better. I've never played a renegade femShep, though. But judging from video clips and the ocasional renegade lines I chose, I'd say paragon suits her better.
Meer is terrible.... he's ok for renegade, but paragon? Creepy! His voice ruins every romance scene He does a better job than a lot of voice actors for other games, mind you. But compared to all the exellent work in this series, he's at the very bottom of the list.

Why play femShep?
Well, I'm a woman and that's why I can relate better to a female character. Unless the female character has a horrible personality... which is usually the case in video games. But since ME lets YOU give Shepard a personality, being female rocks!! I was thrilled when I found out I could play as either sex. I didn't know that when I bought the game. BW should really advertize femShep!! I don't get why they didn't do so for ME2. Makes no sense at all not to appeal to as many people as possible. Oh, well.
FemShep is the only woman I've ever seen in a game who comes across as a real person. She has a normal body and you can give her a normal face. Which is what I did. She has a great voice! Not like JRPG characters who talk like little girls... she wears body armor just like manShep. It's such a relief to play a character who is not offensively oversexed. Thank you BioWare (Let's ignore how some of the suaqdmates look ....)

Ugh, now comes something I dread...mining for minerals...



Sure, it helps upgrade the Normandy and our powers/weapons, but it takes soooo long to do. Can anyone pull off the top of thier heads the names of the mineral- Rich planets? So far, I'm in like the 75-80k range for all four, save for Eezo, which is at 62k.



I'll be posting some pics soon! Just gonna finish a side mission, do some more mining and do Grunt's recruitment!

Well, Cam does hate mercs...but only if they're waving a gun around and trying to shoot her. If they're like this guy, she'll just scare him a little.

Maybe on a different playthrough! *ugh, goes back to mining...*

[disco-bunny]

does anyone know of a site that can help you modd mass effect 2 to change hair and clothes for fem shep?

[jlb524]

I still like this one:



Turian: What are you looking at?

Shepard: A pair of sad losers that think they're something, and are about to find out they're not.

Oh, those screens are beautiful, Jane!

"What sound do you think you'll make when you hit the ground? Think you'll hear it before you die?"

Love this line. Hale delivers it w/ an icy cold that would chill death itself.

There's actually one single planet where you can get as much of every mineral as you want.  It's really fast, in fact it skips probes entirely and just deposit the minerals directly into the holding tanks.  It's called Gibbed Prime, this page will tell you how to navigate to it, it's not visible on the galaxy map.

In order to use it you actually have to log out of the entire universe and manipulate the quantum probabilities, but once you log back into the universe you'll have as many resources as you'll ever need.

Nice seeing someone else who's using the take pictures of the TV method of getting screenshots.

It's the only way for me, really.

On the topic of parents playing Mass Effect, my dad is a HUGE fan. In fact, he had to give up his Xbox when he moved in with his girlfriend (how can a woman take a man away from his Xbox?!), and he's been going through Mass Effect withdrawals. He has to live through my yammering on about it. Still, he mostly played male Shepard... but he did have one femShep. And oh dear, she was the most hilariously unattractive woman I have ever seen in my life, but he had SO MUCH FUN playing her. He even said the femShep experience was superior. 

Have some extra femShep to add to the words!

[mellifera]

Seriously...

[Undertone]

Here's my FemShep. I recreated her in terms of what I like visually in women. Mind you I actually like the scars but I have shots of her with no scars too. And my Shep is a *****, the only person she's nice to was Kaidan in ME1 and only Garrus in ME2. Her name was Ravenna or Nagash I can't remember.











Last shot with no scars.

That was my first very first Shepard. Unfortunately the saves and the face code are irrevocably lost. Ever since I've been trying to make something similar but it never quite looks as good as the original. The hair was the closest equivalent to a pony tale or actual long hair. As pale skin as possible. Green eyes.
