The stretch lies in assuming that time and resources were the only things keeping it from happening. In the end, Bioware could have still decided to not include it for a number of other reasons had that particular roadblock not existed. It was a short post about a short conversation, so it's entirely possible (and likely) that not all factors were considered.

The stretch lies in assuming there's more to it despite two different accounts from BW not mentioning anything else.


Assuming there's more to it? No. Merely pointing out that the argument that time and resources were the, and would have been, the only reasons for not including it is an assumption.

Great. Just don't forget an assumption that time adn resources weren't the, and would have been, the only reasons for not including it is even greater assumption ^_^

I'm not sure I'd say it's a greater assumption, but an assumption as well.

Is there a youtube video of this? Don't have the game myself, but I'm interested in some hilarity.


Well thanks to you two I am now going to put my game on easy and replay it with Hawke all by herself to find all the Easter Egg chats.

@ gamer_girl -- I still have not figured out how to take a screen shot of my characters and put them into my profile photo. Neither does Abispa but he may just be playing ignorant because he is afraid I will go crazy posting photos on the forum.

I'm not sure... I want to say Vega if he's an option. Maybe. Depends on who the females are as well.

It helps to have multiple Shepards...

I went back and read all the pages I missed and it looks like I missed so much fun stuff. What I am happy with is that I think it has been argued very well that DA2 having four "bi" LIs allowed the game to give more friendship, rivalry, and relationship options per character and not just romance them or they shut up like ME2.

I am so bad at creating new characters in the ME games and all Bioware games and never finishing them. I spend hours trying to get them the way I want them and once they are done I will start the game and stop and save. Then later I make another one. The DA series was really addictive to me for this.

What I do, since not only do I suck at the character creator but I end up spending more time developing the face then anything else, is to steal ones from Masseffect2faces and do a couple tweaks. Most (all but two - Sheploo and a FemShep) of my Shepards are this. :whistle:

Lol But that is my point exactly.    A soft gentle brush is what I would have expected to at least have a hint that Kaidan was digging my Manshep during the first game.  There was none of that, thats just why i find it odd to all of a sudden he can be s/s now.    Now I think about it, If Kaidan slapped my Man shep on the ass and then winked at him, I'd know he was into him!  


Man do you have any idea how hard that is to animate? Getting a hug to line up halfway believably in a game like this sends deskmonkeys into conniptions, and there are a thousand more places and camera angles you can use to cheat a hug to look halfway decent. You want a subtle hand-stroke, you are looking at weeks of blocking for even a handful of frames. Ever noticed how the characters in Mass Effect never actually touch each other outside of full-on cutscenes and quicktime events? Remember how totally awkward Shepard's shoulder-pat to Nef's mother was? Notice how you can't hug Tali with a heavy weapon equipped without her hands going right through it? Trust me, this stuff is not simple. Oh, how I wish it were. :(

Expecting subtle hand-gestures as definitive proof of a character's attraction is kind of like asking for an actual, readable issue of Fornax in-game. I mean, sure, they could do a whole bunch of new rigging for the hanar model and spend months setting up little vignettes to screencap, or even swing by the Image offices and hire some hapless comic artist to draw them all out instead. But, like, that level of work, for something which is that far from being remotely related to anything that's actually a priority for the game? Unlikely, to say the least.


I know EXACTLY how ME3 would do this scene!

KAIDAN: [Camera close up that only shows his head and shoulders. He has a coy look on his face.]

SHEPARD: [Camera close up of head and shoulders looking ahead and then he looks down but the camera does not move] Kaidan, did you just softly brush my hand? [Shepard looks up confused.]

KAIDAN: [Again camera close up. Now he has the ME rape face. Eyebrows wiggle up and down.]

SHEPARD: [Camera close up. Now he has ME rape face.]

:wizard:

Kaidan is mad now. He wanted a rape face.

You know, I would find him attractive if it weren't for his butt chin and the fouxhawk that actually looks like Elvis hair. :?

Mordin does not  have a non-rape face! Why do you think he has all those special love lotions for Shepard to use? Mwa ha ha ha ha!

Personally, I love both of these features of him :wub: But maybe it's because I like him as a character so it made me love the Elvis hair too even though I probably wouldn't like had my boyfriend sported it :lol: Hmmm or maybe I would because I love my boyfriend so I look past such 'flaws'? xD
