 hey,


So, does anyone else hate the new EDI?

I loved EDI back in ME2 when she was just a floating orb with a voice. 

but in ME3 i just can't stand her. I mean first she gets a fembot body like something from an Austin Powers movie, and then all that "how can I be human" questions she asks Shepard. plus she is not helpful in combat what so ever.

so yeah, does anyone else completely hate the new EDI?

I agree with you completely if I want to see an AI figuring out what it means to be human I'll go watch Star Trek TNG.

EDI in ME2 was fascinating. It was a very original take on the typical 'A.I becoming human' story.
In ME3, with the ridiculous sexbot body and how that retarded body comes to define every aspect of her, EDI's story became much more simplistic, generic and boring by taking 10 steps backwards.
Though taking 10 steps backwards in complexity and depth is what ME3 seems to be best at.

I love EDI. Maybe it would have been better if they didn't give her a body at all. No matter how it looked. But I still love the character.

[TsaiMeLemoni]

I don't hate EDI, but I wish we had Miranda instead.

[o Ventus]

As a squadmate, I don't really like EDI. As a character, I'm perfectly fine with her.

The only reason she even exists as a squadmate is because there needs to be a tech character at the start, so I can somewhat forgive it.

Needless to say, I would much rather have Miranda by my side than the Cylon.

Same here. I love EDI as a character. But I rarely use her as a squadmate. I always talk to her after missions etc though.

EDI was absolutely wonderful. The most interesting character of ME3 by far. Worked well for me and my ultimate goal of establishing peace between quarians and geth. They obviously put a tremendous amount of effort forth in making her fun and interesting, and aesthetically pleasing. She was also designed to make the quarian-geth issue more problematic and to give the player pause with a literal interpretation of the end, otherwise everyone would just automatically select destroy option (instead of the 75% who did anyway.)

Most critically, it was the only way they could Joker laid;)

[KiwiQuiche]

Eh...she was okay in ME3. Liked it better in ME2 where you could be rude and agro towards her (but Bioware lieks to take away choice in ME3...retards.)
They oversexualized her body WAY too much though, it was kinda creepy talking to her with those torpedo boobs pointing at me all the time. But Bioware did that with a lot of squadie chicks in ME, judging from Ashley and Liara.

[Shallyah]

EDI is one more plot device to get some players away from choosing Destroy in the ending, and give consideration to the other choices.

If she was just an AI, players wouldn't really care that much. Being your best friend's sexbot, the situation changes. Too bad they executed it poorly.

[Shallyah]

Double post.

Yeah, Ash in particular.  I think she may have had a kid or two during her absense given the hips and chest makeover.

[MadRabbit999]

I do not hate her, but I think she is an overrated character in ME3 just like Miranda was in ME2, and I suspect the reason being her incredible new ASSets, which makes the whole thing quite depressing "You become interesting if you grow big boobs and a camel-toe".

[Haargel]

I actually liked her.
Same with Allers and Vega, however I would have loved more ME2 squadmembers on board.

In my first playthrough I switched squadies regularly, I did not have Javik at that time. The only constant factor in my team was Garrus, for the other spot I rotated during all missions.

In my second playthrough, I bought from ashes and it's basically Garrus and Javik all the time. Still didn't do any mission on Tuchanka though, and that's a pain... playing maybe an hour a week, and after a week I have to find out what I did before because the journal doesn't update.

I frowned on the Joker - EDI relationship, however I encourage them, still don't see how it's even possible though.

[George Costanza]

I liked her more when she was just the computer. As a person I can't get over her absurd character model.

[wildannie]

I think what they did to EDI (and Joker) in ME3 was completely lame. I really liked them in ME2 and would have much preferred EDI to have remained looking as she was. However amongst all the things I hate about ME3, EDI hardly registers.

[wright1978]

Well one of my favourite characters in Andromeda was Rommie, so i'm quite up for the idea of sentient AI with humanoid body and the adjustments such a transition can require.

So as far as EDI is concerned. I thought the EDI/Joker romance was handled well. I half expected it to be played for laughs but it was done seriously thankfully. Dislike the silly synthesis ending symbolism that involves them though.

Obviously i would have preferred to have ME2 squaddies back even if that meant EDI being in her old ME2 format.

[Moira-chan]

i really loved edi in me2...she was interessting and i love her to be not one of these...well stupid cyber chicks...but this is what she totally become in me3. just to bring her together with joker? to fulfill the hopes/dreams of fanboys? oh please. edi was great as AI as she was...the body was unnecessary. i would love to have a me2 squade mate instead of her.

[OchreJelly]

It would have been funny if EDI had been given a clunky 80's Battlestar Galactica Centurion body. \\o/

[Peranor]

EDI would look hot as a YMIR Mech

[jaktuk]

I agree with op I liked EDI's character during ME2 but i really did not think they needed to give her a physical form. I like all the talks we have with her during the game but she did not need a physical body for that, would have preferred that they would have added another companion instead of EDI.

No I do not hate EDI in ME3, one of the best squad members ever IMO.
And I found her very helpful in combat, if used properly.

I hate decoy

- Edi, that guy has shields... Overload!
*Edi uses decoy*
- FFFFFFFFUUUU---

But yeah, she is pretty useful since she can take out shields, barriers and armor.

[Applepie_Svk]

When I heard that she was behind that massacre back in the ME1, i have taste to shoot her to processor...

Otherwise I don´t like or hate her - she was just better as simple Ship - after what she endanger whole crew with connection to EVA I want threw out from airlock both Edi and Joker... Yeah why not Joker want sexbot right on the mission in the middle of battle over Palaven - great step ...

She worked better without a body. I prefer my AIs to be just a voice.

Androids are for wussies.
