And yes, she does get props from me for realising her acting was awful.

She was still better than Marina Sirtis.

-Really... Im wondering how the hell you are allowed to keep posting your drivel? Because you insist on calling everyone stupid, ugly, unemployed and whatnot. Makes me wonder what the hell you do for a living

Where you stating what your response would be? I agree. She's a celebrity almost. She's been in Askmen, FHM, Maxim, IGN,  G4, etc etc she is considered one of the hottest girls in business. Amoung other things. Many members here don't even have a job, let alone a good one, don't know or met any celebrities, never been on a radio show, tv show, or in a video game, or doing a job they love.

So what you're saying is Jessica has more going for herself than a doctor who works with cancer patients or a lawyer who specializes in fighting for children who are abused because she knows celebrities and has appeared in magazines, while those two haven't.

Good to know your priorities and how you judge a fulfilling life "bro".

Not very good at it at all. He needs reinforcements.

Chances are the apology is insincere for whatever reason. Either way, it doesn't really matter because, well...who cares really?


Yes I'm more concerned about my toilet, I have this sinking feeling something in there like a spirit or ghoul or something is gonna get me. Image IPB

But that doesn't mean I can't be interested in the current weather patterns of the ****storm in the Mass Effect universe. Image IPB

Ugh, the whole fighting over her looks just reinforces the idea that women are the decorative gender.

Don't even get me started the implications by which she was put into the game.

You should have seen the last thread. Highlights include:

>"Chobot is hot, so she isn't accountable for what she says"
>"Chobot is hot, and you would totally bang her IRL, so you shouldn't criticise her because you wouldn't IRL. Because she is hot. And you would want to bang her."
>"Chobot is hot. It is impossible for men to not think with their penis."

Were I Chobot, I would be insulted by the above more than anything else.

Agree to disagree, then.

Sirtis was awful in that hammy, "Oh lord, this is Star Trek all over again" sort of way. Chobot was awful in that "why is this rock speaking" sort of way.

Seriously, the elcor are more emotionally convincing, and I'm not even trying to flame.

This is why I don't hashtag all my rage comments with Retake whatever. Lots of stupidity in all of this, and I wish to align myself with me. Not stupid.

Personal attacks on Bioware employees = unacceptable, ever.
Threatening letters to Bioware or Bioware employees = unacceptable, ever.
Lots of the ranting I've seen on this board = unacceptable, ever.

Like the Occupy movement, it started out with people who had some very legitimate issues and wanted to have their voice heard. Then idiots jumped on board and acted completely irresponsibly toting the Occupy banner, making those with good ways to express valid issues look bad.

Dumb is dumb.

If you call on them they will come, so don't give them any ideas.

-Based upon her writing and her grooming of the image as the "pin-up girl for nerds" she seems to go for, Id say she would be unable to see why that would be insulting.

LOL. She's butt hurt that no one wanted her in the game.

Now she won't even stand by her convictions. Typical IGN.


You can laugh at her. But hmm she got paid, she's in ME history as a character in the universe, and she works for IGN. What do you have going on?



The integrity not to wiggle my ass against/around an editor for IGN for a job and "fame?"

Yes, that's strictly trolling. Saying "Retakers don't have careers and are all ugly" is not a statement based in reality, it's just an attempt to get a rise out of people.

Sadly, inspiring that seems to pay her bills.

That is pretty terrible.  I seriously had no idea who she was and I kept thinking "Who the hell hired this woman?"

She stood out from the rest of the cast like a sore thumb.

I can't blame her for getting upset, I've seen a few real nasty remarks regarding her.  Between that and the fact that by working in the game she's going to have a diffrent perspective, I can understand her getting fustrated.  Her mistake was blanketing all of the protesting fans as entitled whiners, which is not the case.  Some do fit that description, and some are being real jerks, but there are a lot of people who are being respectful and civil.  So she was right to apologise.  But honestly, she deserves an apology from a number of "fans" herself.  

In my mind, no harm no foul, she made a very justifiable mistake, owned up to it, and apologised.  She's taking enough undeservwed flack as it is.  I mean honestly, how many of us wouldn't have jumped at the chance to be in ME3?  While Bioware shouldn't have used her for stunt casting, she did nothing wrong by taking them up on the chance to be in the game.  Critisising her performance is fine, but people shouldn't make it personal.

Do not be upset she referenced you the customers of Bioware. I am in the party that the endings were not good and since ME1 they have went away from the formula that made ME1 such a big hit imo, but that is not the point here.

Jessica Chobot's motivations are to push herself more into mainstream and increase her fame which in turn makes her more money and you cant blame her for that at least in the US. Her company is in it to make money and they advertise for anyone who can afford to pay.

Why would anyone be surprised or feel bad about what she has to say about "entitled bratz" or anyone for that matter?

She is just doing her job, she can only say things publicly that are approved by IGN because they sign her paycheck. Her opinion is that of her current employer and whoever they are loyal to. Her company and her can not be taken as credible sources on the subject by reasonable people because they have their hand in the cookie jar. Don't let it bother you. Also before anyone says it, this is not a conspiracy theory about bought off Review companies either. It is just good business to support your customers. Bioware is the customer of IGN, not you. If they were my customers I would do whatever I could within my viewpoint of Ethics to support them and keep them as customers so don't think these comments are aimed at you the customer of Bioware, they are for Bioware to show they are a loyal company to their customers. Her statement was never about you.
