The best thing that could happen is if the voting is finally over and we get a tme when the femshep trailer is released.  And its Sheploo again.
After the trailer a Bioware employee shows up on screen and says PSYCHE! :lol:


lol. It would be like an atomic bomb went off in the forms if that were to happen. :lol:


Part of me would LOVE that at this point.


Being a Femshep fan I think its more than what we deserve at this point.


This.

You know what? I'm reeeeeeally glad Deus Ex Human Revolution is coming out soon, because at least temporarily, it'll take my mind off of this farce of a second poll.

I can definitely imagine that! I think it'd be funnier if it was "PSYCHE, we're using FemShep 1 from the first vote! Now what FemShep fans, now what?!"

I think I would laugh for about an hour.


I actually think that would be kinda of awesome :devil: BW would be like " No matter what we do we can't plz you people. Want to b**** about something, B**** about THIS!!" .... Do it Bioware do it! lol:lol::lol:

I actually hope they go with a female protagonist (similar to Sheploo) for their next franchise after Mass Effect.  Would be a nice change.


I'm hoping for another ME-trilogy, but yeah with a female protagonist this time.

See that's where I'm conflicted.  There are so few good sci-fi RPG series out now yet I want something like a sequel to Jade Empire.  Maybe do something stand-alone then do another series set in the Mass Effect universe.

As a FemShep fan I just want the trailer I don't care anymore which shep is in it. I didn't care in the first place. Before the first vote I thought it was gonna be the orginal FemShep and I was fine with it, just excited that Femshep was getting a trailer. What irritated me to no end was all the blonde bashing. Why so much hate for blondes:crying: and now people are still complaining. It basicly comes down to this....Rabble rabble rabble rabble

This makes things even worse-

Casey Hudson saying you cannot change her hair color in game


And you would have expected this ability why?


I don't think anyone was expecting it, but it's something a lot of people have been hoping for.  I know a lot of people have expressed interest in changing Sheploo's haircut or giving him a beard, and this dashes those (vain) hopes as well.

I hope they still intend to allow us to tweak imported custom Sheps, though.  That news made me very happy.

#5 won the first poll fair and square by a landslide. It was never announced that there would be other polls. Now all of a sudden it’s “Oh, forget that first poll, that was just the hairstyle. This round is hair color, and the next one will be eye color”. Hm. Where did that come from?

This is a cop out if I’ve ever seen one, or at least it is certainly coming across as such. And that’s why I’m disappointed. If it wasn’t a beauty contest then, it has become one now. If it wasn’t “superficial”, now it is. And if I wasn’t offended by all the backlash that took place, now I kind of am. They didn’t stand up for that result, a decision made by us players. To counter all the whining when #5 won the first poll, because she was a blonde. And apparently, blondes are “dumb bimbos and pornstars with glued-on nail and Chihuahuas in their bags” so that couldn’t be our heroine. That couldn’t be the strong female that saves the galaxy. But if you dyed her hair red (or black, or brown, whatever) she’s suddenly acceptable. Her IQ went up, she removed her glue-on nails and got rid of the Chihuahua. And dropped her day job in adult flicks to become the all-mighty savior of the galaxy. Behold the power of a bottle of red hair dye.

Yes, because blondes are superficial. Riiight. *extreme sarcasm*

I said it before and I’ll repeat, I would have been happy with any of the options in the first poll. It happened that #5 won. Now let’s imagine that #2 (redhead) had won. And there’d be multiple threads and literally hundreds of pages whining about that result (that was reached democratically btw), because “Gingers suck”. They are “dumb bimbos who smell like copper” and “get sunburns indoors at night” and as such they are weak and less capable. They can’t represent Femshep for those exact reasons. And all of a sudden a new poll is created stating that it was about the hairstyle and not the color. That people liked because it was pulled back and that’s more appropriate for a soldier, doesn’t get in the way etc etc.

That’s sort of how I feel about this. I’m just… disappointed.  :(

People can voice their dissent maturely, as the quote shows.

I'm actually more in favor of the redhead Shepard, but the way this was handled makes me feel uncomfortable. I feel like the blonde haters that were slinging around insults and petty stereotypes are sitting back and gloating, thinking they were in the right, even though they are just as idiotic as before. Only now they have Bioware at their back validating their disgusting behavior.
It's like Bioware saw the reaction to the first poll and were like "You know, they might be on to something. Shepard would be too much of a ditzy **** if we made her blonde. What were we thinking?! Re-do!"

I just hope this nonsense is over soon. I'm not really pleased that this was a beauty contest in the first place and the longer it goes on, the more disturbing it gets.

Hay guyz, Bioware just called. They decided that since Bioware fans in general are such unsatisfiable whiny, worthless little ****s that UglyShep is the new default for both male and female. Enjoy.

That is in no way how bioware reacted. I think I should just start posting quotes from Bioware on why they did this.

Thank you. I'm not the only one who feels really uncomfortable about all this.

Obviously. But the feeling can't be shaked by some people.

You kidding?  The quote was an exercise in the kind of teenage immaturity that too many people excel at nowadays: Talking about what they are owed for free by companies that they did not create or invest in*. Please.  

*buying a video game or two from a company doesn't mean you invested in it, child.

To be honest I think anyone else who thinks that Bioware will do another poll is likely wrong. They probably won't be doing another simply because the majority will vote for whoever they like best. The way it should be.

Just a little mention, but to the few who were complaining about the “new” face that now has freckles--I just looked at my female Shepard who is based off the default preset and she has freckles. They’re light, but still there when it shows a close up of her. I admit I only customize the first preset. I wonder if all the presets have them, or just the first one. Anyway, a minute thing, but I thought I would mention it.

I really hope they use both polls as a "baseline" and not use them specifically to make their decision.

Like, if the red head wins this one, they'll pow wow and decide between her and the blonde.

You have to admit its a whole hell of a lot more mature than some of the other folks who're angry.

I've seen some crazy stuff from angry folks during the first poll, and now during the second.

That wouldn't be such a bad idea. They're probably sitting down having their meetings and talking about this actually.

I mean, SOMEONE over at Bioware HQ had to bring up the, "Are we doing this because we want to give the players more choice, or are we doing this because we're caving in to the Blonde hate?" argument.
