I am female, and love me some mass effect hardcore. I wouldn't say I'm much of a gamer, but mass effect is one of those rare games that I'm pretty shameless about. It's the only game I went out of my way to collect all the achievements on, and it's the only game I've actively followed the forums of. [Even if I'm mostly just a thread stalker.] At this point, if you put the ME logo on something, I'll probably buy it. It's a sad existence. I did not feel anywhere near as attached to DA, although I certainly enjoy playing it. I wasn't even a big fan of the sci-fi genre before ME.



My main femshep is a paragon colonist/ruthless, and I have yet to romance anyone besides Garrus. [I tend to skip over ME1 romances completely.] But there are very few characters from ME1/2 that I did not enjoy. I've always enjoyed comics and shows with ensemble casts, and I think that nature of mass effect really draws me to it. Romance is important to me... but not all encompassing. I like relationships with the crew in general, and I'd love for more dialogue trees with everyone, not just the love interest.



As for combat, I've played just about every class but sentinel. Adept tends to be my favorite, with engineer a close second. I do wish I could get light armor back for my adept.

Garrus fangirls exist and are technically genetically female. So yes.

I have heard some women deny they are women. So what you claimed can be questionable?

everyone here is a 15-35 year old white/asian male, currently at school, college, unemployed, or employed with a salary range of 50-200k a year. All girls are fat men or trolls, all children are FBI/KGB/lizardmen agents



there are no real women or black people on the interwebz

I am a male and love the ME series. That being said, my twin sister also enjoyed her play through of ME 2 as a female solider.

[moilami]

Supposedly women play ME, but rule #1 of the internet is that there are no women on the internet.

The #1 rule of being a sexist d-bag on the internet is stating this supposed "rule" of the internet.  It's never been funny.

What is so offensive on it?

Paragon mostly with the odd renegade that doesn't make my Shep a complete tool. I play female only and took the obvious romance option (no spoilers means no names I assume) in ME1.

My char if you're interested:

Yeah, no spoilers please. Thanks appreciated.

I would if I been female, never post my picture although. 

Hardest sentence structure ever but I hear ya. Was a well known forum to me and posting the pic fealt safe (it was the Member Picture Thread after all). Not doing it ever again though. I even deleted my Facebook profile a while back. Every now and then you would get these friend invites from people from across the globe, people you've never met. And in 100% of the cases, these people were in fact male.

I have uh wut, 20 Sheps I think. I've created one for each romance, some are single, some cheated on the ME1-LI while others stayed faithful. But I'm not female, I'm a 40 year old, bald fat guy and I live in my mom's basement where I sit in front of 10 big screens with my own power supplies in case my conspiracy theories are correct, which I know they are. yah...

I see tons of sexist talk there, but because the writer claims to be a woman, it can't be sexist?

I have enjoyed creating different shepards for the game and to be ready for ME3. I even created a Male Shep in one, just to romance Tali in two. Hoping to eventually have a full paragon/renegade shep, along with a "what I think is the best choice for the galaxy" for ME3.

I know how impractical longer hair would be in this game and setting, but I sure wish there were more options for that <.<.

screw practically. I want spiky hair on maleshep

archurban wrote...

@lawp79 why many people love Tali so much?

that's the difference between man and woman.

Could you be more specific please? I mean is the trend that mainly females love Tali or other way around? I feel my manhood threatened.

In other words, I don't want to be ungrateful but I am deeply disappointed. The developers have some... odd... ideas about what women want, in my opinion.<_<

yeah because women ALWAYS know what they want.... xD

*facepalm* Epic fail at finding the point.
There's a reason people stereotype us as being all about "feelings rather than sex." Romance matters to the average woman. Personally, I care about both equally, but to go the other way and assume that most women just want hot booty is pretty stupid.

Even stupider when we're talking about Garrus, where a relationship like that really shouldn't start with sleaze lines. I will be very surprised if anyone wanted to romance Garrus for his body alone. Jacob I understand, but not Garrus. That was ridiculous.

No idea what your problem is but there's a reason why women are stereotyped at taking things out of context, taking things too seriously and having no sense of humour at all...oh wait....wut?

I would elaborate on the Garrus romance but I really just can't be bothered right now.

No pics, no chicks. Everyone proclaiming to be female here is infact a poser. Probably gay too.

 I was in London for the Warden's Quest event. Ask Chris Priestly, Fernando Melo, exorzist, Astorax, MistressNine9,  etc. or possibly any of the forum users who were watching online if I'm a woman.

Also, I can confirm that moarinternets, Tamyn, n2nw, Cat Lance, and DLAN_Immortality are female, as I met them there. They too have racks and are in fact quite pretty. I would estimate that all of us are under 40 and under 200 lbs., so there goes that myth as well.

q.e.d.

Female gamer here. Love Mass Effect series (and all of Bioware's games in general, to be honest). My main is Velia Shepard, vanguard, paragon to the point where she'll save every single kitten stuck on a tree and if possible will have every race hold hands/tentacles/whatever and dance around, singing happy songs.

Rule #2 in Internet. Women never talk sexist.

you may want to look up the definition of "sexist" and maybe while you're at it, go to "meanwhile" for a date with your hand.

I wish the dudeSheps had some better hair options. Other than bald or buzzcut the hairstyles for them look pretty much douchy...

Rumours tell Vikings had long hair and it did not affect their fighting skills negatively. If you have attitude, a long hair doesn't matter.

As #2 says, you can't be female since females never talk sexist (even though refusel to quickie indicates the opposite).

Yeah, you walked right into that one. Jesting aside, there was a poll a while back. About 35% or so of this forum is female. May have been over 40%

what metal taste do you have?

#1 Slipknot! then everything from FFDP to A7X, Disturbed, Devil Driver, Suicide Silence, Mudvayne, StaticX, KSE, Bury Your Dead, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden...and so on. That list is just frigging long. As long as it's not some weird scandinavian power metal, I'm good.

I do love Industrial and EBM too. That's my other music love...

But... but... scandinavian power metal is the best! *Swedish metal lover who likes native bands* xD

I agree, they are.  followed very closely by german industrial to my ears (there's something about the language that just makes it work better then english)

hub turned me onto Slayer and bands like that, when we met, I was more of a Metalica and Iron Maiden sort of gal, but I've noticed that on many occasions, heavier metal has some of the best lyrics.

Never been ashamed of my geekiness and people who obviously have geek tendencies but deny them make me somewhat sad, but it helps that my highschool experience was...unique.    Being a geek in my high school was normal.  we traded books to each other, sometimes litterary stuff, sometimes sci-fi or thrillers, played computer games during lunch period, shared our lunches smoggesboard style, and being in a school band or making the cut for some reginal science competition was actualy concidered cool

P.S.  hair choices never really bothered me, seeing as Shepard is millitary, they woudln't have a lot of "pretty" choices due to regulations.  Viking rumors nonwithstanding.
