 Dear BioWare,

I just completed my Biotic Mastery challenge and gotten the lobby banner proclaiming me a BIOTIC GOD!! However, I am a CHICK. What's with this discrimination? You should offer an option to be a Biotic GODDESS to your female players.

TIA,

BeefIn Mah Taco

It's a meme, not discrimination.

That said, +1

Haha, this is a jab at the maleShep banner-topic, right?

...right?

Asari these days...

Biotic Goddess, blah blah blah, impossible anatomy, yada yada, Thessian haze this, Ardat-Yakshi that, we get it. Everyone loves Asari for some reason.

I was thinking the Fury should be the banner icon, actually...

what if technically the biotic go is a neuter?

Why would it be? Most of the titles are gender-neutral, but it's at least odd that a game that has been very intentional about the idea of gender parity for its heroes has locked a couple of the challenge banners into a male frame of reference.

Sex is irrelevant to gender.
Now, if Niftu Cal were genderqueer...

Multiple challenge banners would fix this, but it's better to roll it out now with slightly reduced features (MaleShep is far more popular than FemShep, and VAwise, rightly so imo) than delay for reasons that don't break function.

The Fury couldn't get to the banner photo shoot in time. She got downed like, 16 times on the way there, and no one cared to revive her any more after that.

Maybe the way you play her. You're doing it wrong.

Alright, fair enough.

Would have pefered if they would put some of the banners bit more "femine" manner thou. As every banner is unique.

One good way to play Fury is like a Novaguard, but squishier and more damaging, and relying on sprints and teleports rather than charges. At least, that's how I roll her.

There is no discrimination. It's not like the banner simply pertains to males and males only due to it being called god not goddess. God may be set more in the male standards obviously but that doesn't mean it's for males only. You unlocked it and if you don't like it don't use it.

There's always alternatives like Mathemagician of course.

More like everyone else on these forums. I can play her just fine. But then again, I'm not the one trying to get her to the photo shoot.

Maybe I'd believe this if one of the female biotic characters was the icon instead...

[Dracian]

Surprisingly, three of my friends on ME3 are chicks and none of them has ever complained against the fact that it is Biotic God and not Biotic Goddess. I'm pretty sure they would be if the banner was feminised.

ahaha. aha. ah.

MP forum is too crazy. Ill go hang out at campaign discussion's place.

Also, Biotic God is the meme.
The Biotic God is a volus adept. that'sthepoint.jpg

The Lone Wolf thing is an unfortunate technical limitation, but to make it Femshep would be blatant discrimination due to her limited popularity compared to Maleshep.

This concept does not exist in English.
Point mooted.
