50,000 year stasis has got to suck

[Frolk]

I feel kind of ambivalent about this. I really liked EDI in Mass Effect 2 - she was a very well-written and interesting character; an AI with a subtle sense of humour and what seemed to be genuine human emotions. I'm glad to see that she'll play a major role in ME3, but turning her into a sexy fembot just seems like a blatant attempt to titillate certain members of the fanbase and I feel a little bit patronised by this.

though you could see her doing it of her own accord in order to make jeff more efficient at his work (he works well under pressure or so she says :innocent:)

Is it a coincidence that EDI's voice actor played a human looking robot who had a sexual appearance in another scfi setting?

I don't think so.

You just watch....not only will we have this version of EDI, we will have another one that only Shepard can see. This one seems to believe it is an "Angel" and is very religious. Talks about Shepard being the hand of God or something.....

What a silly thing to rage about.

The actual experience probably only felt like a couple nights to him but, you're right, waking up that far into into the future sucks. Everyone and everything the Prothean has ever known is gone. I don't about others, but there's no way I could cope with an experience like that.

and amazingly enough he'll probably talk perfect english, unless he is psychic and doesn't need a spoken language.

I think only Shepard will understand him in the beggining since he has the Cipher knowledge.

I haven't seen this image yet of EDI in an android body so I can't argue about it appearence yet but is this really a bad thing?

A lot scfi shows reveals the capabilities of synthetics as beyond human, wouldn't you want that as ally.

Here is a few examples: Data in the star trek series, advanced replicators in Stargate series and the one that I think has the most relevance to EDI the avatar of the main ship in the Andromeda series.

Seeing how powerfull these things are displayed as, is it that bad to one in your team?

or

Is these complaints mainly about it have a female body?

Which is it, also can someone send me the image so I can see why people have a problem with it. :happy:

[Extort]

Poor Ms. Helfer is being typecast.

I'm gonna play the middle guy here for a sec. On one hand, I had the whole WTF?! moment (and to a certain degree, I am still having that moment), but I also think if done right and if it fits the story fairly well, it may come over as being a good idea. I have a history of trust in BioWare and they rarely dissapoint (me).

With that said... WTF!?!?

Knowing me though, it will all make sense once I play the game.

[Annoyed Dragon]

Well I have seen the image and frankly I don't see a problem with this.

The body was designed to sneak into places when it had skin, so who ever created this body wanted it to be able to interact with humans and influence them which is easier if the target find you attractive.

If EDI decides it prefers it without it skin then that EDI choice, most likely use it to be a greater asset to Shep's mission. I think my comparison earlier to Andromeda was a good choice, since it shows how a AI of ship would use a robotic body.

Also it should be fun to see how EDI play around with Jokers mind like it did in ME2.

No bull****. I was thinking about this today. I'm a Cap6 fanboy, but still sucks for her.

Someone never played Starcraft 2 ... all I have to say Sarah ****ing Kerrigan 

and it just gets better in Starcraft 2 Heart of the Swarm

[TheCreeper]

Both look alright to me.

[Ajosraa]

I just saw said designs from the art book.

What are you talking bout Willis? EDI looks awsome!

I like the design of both EDI and the *ahem* other one.

She reminds me of some old retro 1950s chrome robot concept of the future, which has a certain nostalgic charm.

And this talk of "oversexualization" I just cant agree with. Some are overreacting in this case imo. Granted its your opinion, but It is not mine. I Think her form in the art book is very much in line with my thoughts of a robot modeled on a female form, and since EDI is thought of as female, It all seems to follow. The level of sexualization seems wholly appropriate in this case imo.

Just because her form is "Technically" naked, and she has hips and boob shaped lumps, does not demean her. To think it lowers her in my opinion is to show another form of sexism, a strange oversenitive conservative sex-averse thinking that says that the female form is wrong or that admiring it is wrong or that person being physically fit is wrong. Thats the message Im getting from some people.

[AnAccountWithNoName]

Since EDI is technically an "it" and not a she, maybe it should have a gener-neutral looking body.

[Gold Dragon]

So EDI has a body that isn't the Normandy.  Big deal.

I expected it when I first heard that the Normandy was an Alliance Vessel in ME 3.

Either EDI got a body, or gets destroyed utterly.

What actually going to be interesting is in about 70 or so years (post ME 3).  Humans age, robots don't.
