Edit: Joker is by far my favourite minor character.

1. Udina - Fantastic bastard of a character. I guess I love to hate him.
Not sure if you saw my list but Udina is hands down my most hated character. I don't know if that was BW goal for him becuase out of all the characters fans seem to be able to agree on hating Udina and that is the only character I know of like that.
Personally, I consider him too much of a joke to hate.
And thank you Cthulhu42 for showing and saying that there is people who find something to like about Udina. I already said The same thing about Conrad Verner.

There we go I just summed up BSN "discussions".

I assuemd you meant you were tired of how other people saw her as a sex icon. Did you mean she "becomes" a sex icon in-game? In that case... how? The only times she does anything inherently flirty or sensual (Indeed, anything close to "sex icon") is during the romance.
I was more targetting specificaly how her entire appearance has created the as you mentioned 'oo dat ass' atitude. There are cutscenes tailored to this, and obviously her romance is one of them, and not really relevant to what I was getting at. Characters like Jack, Tali, Ashley, the asari, shepard obvi, they all have the standard female model, whilst Miranda has her own. So, as I've mentioned, personality is a like. She just has a... 'everything is too tailored and perfect' feel. Its kind of comparable to Lara Croft. Exceptionally intelligent, fan made sex icon.
Ah. I see where you're coming from. To be completely fair, the only glorifying cutscene (I know what you're referring to) happens once, albeit completely during the wrong time. I'm more than willing to blame that on a horny conversation animator though. I don't know about the comparison to Lara Croft (I mean, I don't know about her personality, I know she's a ridiculously overplayed "sex icon"). In regards to your point about "perfect", that's explained in-game (Her 1st and 2nd conversations on the Normandy), and I personally think it's a devious little ethical dilemma.
As someone who likes Miranda, I despise the mentality that went into her in-game character model sculpt, as much as I despise the people who think it's the only facet to her.

Although, if you're trying to argue she only gets turned into a sex object once.. Well. It seems to me that they seem to find a way to work a shot at her ass or boobs into nearly ever scene she's in. Not to mention that if you compare her LI scene to the other female love scenes.. hers are noticably more explicit. (Same with Jacob compared to other male LI scenes)

That's probably the reason. Have you watched FemShep's conversations with Jacob on youtube? It's very difficult to find dialogue choices that don't sound flirty with him, and FemShep's tone of voice makes me feel like someone assumed direct control of her personality. xD I've never hated Jacob for it. I'm just neutral towards him, when in the beginning, I thought he would be a great friendship character. Unfortunately, I haven't been talking to Jacob much at all with a FemShep for fear of romance traps.RVallant wrote...
To contribute to other discussions; Jacob, I never saw a problem with him, don't see why he gets a lot of flak but I play as Male Shep so... >.>

Thane, I would forget he was there half the time, and I just dislike the way he was written as a romance ("I'm dying, I'm still in love with my dead wife, my son hates me, I get creepy flashbacks every 2 minutes..." yeah so hot...)
