It doesn't matter the they went with a female body - it matters that they HAD to have it sexualised. They NEEDED to have it sexualised.
So? What's so wrong about that?
It's certainly better than those outfits Samara and Miranda had.
Its wrong because its only NEEDED for games aimed at gamers who have just discovered they get funny feelings hen they look at boobs.
There isn't a need for it in the ME universe. What started out as a series that had the traditional male warrior as a woman, and the traditonal female mage as a man and pushed a strong powerful female avatar has suddenly looked like they've done a backflip.
ME was a series that started off without feeling the need to reduce female characters to excessive objectification. Now - for no reason what so ever, and without any explanation - they suddenly NEED to have them sexed up?
Generally speaking I thought we were heading away from this kind of backwards mentality.
so wait you find edi to be over sexualized and others just arent?
look bro im a guy myself but if you dont like the look i understand but if your going to keep hyping the omg there oversexualizing thing i hope you understand that a few other charaters can be said for the same thing.
so dont make it sound like edi is the only one

Wait? What?
Never said EDI was the only one. In fact - since ME2 came out I've argued pretty strongly about their need to change tact when it came to female characters. Hell, they created special camera moments just for Miranda's arse.
In this instance though we're tlaking about BioWare stating clearly that they needed to make EDI sexy.
That was the whole point of their design philosophy on where they were going and why they decided on a robot body. It wasn't enough to have an AI, built into a ship, that had a female voice. It needed to become sexy.
That whole thought process right there, is just plain silly.

*legion looks at EDI*
legion: we would wish to pose a question.
EDI: yes legion?
legion: why the need for those frontal portrusions, they are not an efficient design.
EDI: this incites interesting reactions from my colleagues, particulary jeff.
legion: ...*head flashes and head plates tilt a bit*
Seriously though i can see this

And Little amusing Irony... see for a female character to be strong she not must have a female body at all and no femine features at all ... because strong women are never femine...

I guess BioWare finally thought that it was time they took their own trilogy in their own hands and not let the fans have a stranglehold on them all the time.

Eh, I like it. Also, simple fix; alternate outfit.

It's not female but it was designed with a female voice. It makes sense for them to put it into a female body. EDI may even prefer a female body to a male body, who knows.

according to the other thread she doesn't share any thing very intimate with anyone other than a simple action. Idk how to make spoilers highlight so I'll assume people have the guessing power.Cancer Puppet wrote...

You are right. I am curious as to why she would want to be put into a body and not do what she is programmed to do.lucidfox wrote...

Apart from appeasing the Joker/EDI shippers, there is no reason whatsoever to put it in a body that looks like it's designed for a sexbot. Because that denies the AI its primary purpose, namely, running the bloody ship.
