Though not for everything. I prefer jack stay the way she is.


Very nice good sir. I agree with you. Jack just wouldn't look right bustier than she is.

EDI isn't even alive. Not really. EDI is just a machine, and machines can be broken.

This line of reasoning could extend to Republicans. :lol:

Too political? =]


Shepard got some character development since ME1 :blink:

I actually just hate the Pinnochio story with EDI. Same with the geth to a degree.

Artificial Intelligence should be its own thing. Not try to emulate organics.

It's pretty immature as stated by several others. She's wearing Miranda's outfit. The tight sin outfit sure showed off her a**, but her vag wasn't on display. It was purposefully put. Amazing they can waste time designing Edi's vag, but not Tali's face


Curious allocation of resources is a vital part of artistic integritah.

You have to do a lot of camera/view manupulation to get things like this thrust in your face.....or so I'm told.

Essentially you thrust your face into it, rather than having it thrust at you

The step the geth took to true sentience would be lost if they were recreated by the quarians after you destroy them (grrrrrrrrrrr). It wouldn't be the same. If the Normandy is destroyed, EDI dies. Just like any other member of the crew that happens to be on board.

- EDI is a unique being that would be lost forever if she were to die, just like any organic.

We created them, we can do it again. Actually we have tech to bring organics back to life as well. Shepard....wrex....shepard....wrex....

I respect your opinion that it adds nothing. However, I think that nudity in video games adds a level of authenticity .

People laugh about the witcher 2's sex scenes but I found they really set the stage. The first one you see geralt waking up with a naked triss in bed. This immediately tells the viewer that the game is not going to coddle them. It adds realism, and a serious tone instead of the laughable underwear in shower scene. It invites deeper emersion, as we leave our social norms in favor of the games where nudity isn't as taboo. Geralt never giggles to himself when he sees a woman with her chest bared, and so an emersed player won't either.




Did a character walk around with nipples and/or labia intentionally made visible the whole game? Honestly, I have yet to play Witcher 2. It looks amazing, but there is a point where the nudity becomes excessive. I liked Rome on HBO, I like the Spartacus series on Starz. But sometimes they had ****** flying around for sheer shock value. I hit FF to a point where someone actually starts talking again. It brakes the flow of the narrative when things get that draw out.

Any recreated version wouldn't be EDI. That is the nature (and danger) of true AI. You don't know what personality it will have, like how some humans are good and others evil.

- I'll add that EDI changed herself for the better, too. She was the homicidal VI from Luna, and was created using Reaper-based code, but she chose to protect and fight for both Joker and crew to the bitter end if that's what it took. My Shepard counts her as a fellow crew member and friend.

I didn't even notice the cameltoe ingame, until pictures of it appeared online. And I was distracted by her padding, of course.

But yeah, they probably included it, because, you know, artistic integrity.

Witcher 1 had some characters permanantly naked, but again it added immersion. We had forest nymphs on the brink of society. Their norms did not see nudity as anything worth commenting on. It would have been odd to see such a culture running around with bras on despite their premise. As a player I reached a point where I wouldn't even notice their green bare breasts. They were forest nypmhs...its like being upset that tali has 3 fingers...its just what they were.

Witcher 2 did not have permanantly naked characters...but then again...( spoilers)no forest nymphs where geralt went. Theres a scene where you have a baroness being tortured. Her breasts bare. The game references the indignity within its confines. It makes the torture seem all the more real and terrible. The effect was a definate gain towards total emersion.

Honestly guys...it's probably just a mirrored texture error. I don't think they intended it


LOL. As someone who creates 3D models and textures, that would be an extremely shoddy excuse for the cameltoe. Mirroring a supposed flat area like that is easy, and if an "error" like the camletoe appared, it could be fixed. The cameltoe is on purpose, just look at the shading.

I suppose you want to say Jack's nipples are a bump map texture error too?

Very glad to know that Jack has nipples and they are always hard. It suits her character.

Yeah, I can agree with this. But then, it wasn't some weird attempt at fan service, it was just part of the lore and added to the atmosphere. The sex cards in The Witcher 1, however, were attempts at fan service, didn't add to the atmosphere, and as such, I did not like them.

It has something to do with the Heisenberg uncertainty principle and quantum computing. Basically, there's only so much about a blue box you can know and control, but the entire thing will factor into determine how the AI responds. Nature vs nurture, I guess.

AI like the Geth, who exist only as code, can be replicated rather reliably, though. Code is something that has to be readable. It all breaks down to 0's and 1's (maybe some 2's if you have a ternary computer, I'm not sure what the Geth run on). That can be printed out, manually punched into another machine, and the new system will behave like the old one.

Sex is a fundimental human activity. I was not shocked by the sex scenes in witcher 2. The excesive bad language though....Crikes, I sound like an american sensor.     

Simpley put, in context, sex, nuduity and bad language has a place in "art". Only excessive use is detrimental. In Rome and Sparticus, it gave us a view of history which seems accurate. In Witcher 2, bad language seemed forced - especially since the epithets where in morden language and definitions of swearing.

I didn't mind them, but enough people did that they removed them entirely from the sequel. I don't take the sex cards seriously. They certainly were not canon. They were more like collectable items beyond the fourth wall for the completionists out there to collect.

They are gone entirely from Witcher 2 and Geralt does not get with every *hot chick* in witcher 2...he actually only has his main love interest and a handful of plot driven romance options.

Well, don't forget that the geth received a boost from Legion and achieved true AI status. When you destroyed them, that was lost forever.

- I wanted EDI to see some positive qualities of organics. That we aren't all out to scrap every AI we find like what the AI on the Citadel talked about. That was an AI with a very different and hostile personality because of how it was treated by it's creator.

- Sorry, I'm done derailing the topic, now. Back to the important discussion at hand...

This is a positive in a game with one giant negative, I think complaining about it is a waste of time.

I just assumed the bad language came with the age and the entourage. I was surrounding myself with rebels and soldiers. The towns folk seemed to swear in good spirits...nothing malicious.

See, this is what I don't understand. They do tacky **** like this and then claim that ME3 is the Mona Lisa and can't be changed or else we set a precedent that will allow fans to add their own illustrations to the Sistine Chapel. Or something.

Because Mass Effect - with all the camel toes and ass shots therein - is high art akin to Monet's Water Lilies, Michelangelo's David, and Les Miserables.

And if you take enough shots in Purgatory you can wake up on the elevator. Voila! Art!
