The toolset is useless for us console players until they start allowing mods on console, and give us a way to access and install those mods on our console games. I love modding myself so I'd be all for it, but for now it's a non-option.

So what would people be prepared to sacrifice in-game for gritty, nippletastic sex scenes? Since it's a matter of resources rather than anti-nipple morality, it could theoretically be done but not without giving up something in return since those resources are limited. Yes, TW2 had Triss etc in all their naked glory, but then you had a completely set male heterosexual protagonist and very specifically scripted sex scenes. There was very little variation in Geralt's gear, no companions (with all the implications such as inter-party banter, kitting out the companions, dialogue, personal quests, companion AI etc) and only the Triss relationship was fleshed out (pardon the pun) in any way, with the other scenes being much more casual encounters.
Personally? I wouldn't be prepared to make the trade with any of those things. As much as I am not averse to sexually explicit material in games/books/film, I like the things that Bioware games offer in terms of companion-based gameplay and character options, and wouldn't want to see any of those things disappear for the sake of some artful boob shots.
I wouldn't give up any of those things. I think it's a false choice myself. There are going to be romance climax scenes regardless, so the question is what form they take. The only extra expense in animating these scenes over any other scene is that you have to come up with extra skins.. which is not an extra expense anyway. You just have nude/partially nude skins instead of the underwear skins. (In DA:O, the underwear would actually be the extra expense.)
Now if they wanted to really do them justice, you'd have some bit of undressing on screen, so you'd have to have the clothes act like clothes, rather than be part of a solid character skin.. like the Shrek movies, seriously. If you did that you'd have to have that more advanced body/clothing character modelling and animation. That would be the real expense, but if that's too expensive, the before and after with more talking, kissing etc. and no or much less clothing would get it done.
Honestly if you had that, you had the intimate embrace/undress and a little talking, breathing, kissing emotional type exchange rather than the little clothed jokey shots from DA2 or the clothed whatever in ME2, that's a major improvement. That's what everybody's really asking for, I think. Once you've gotten everything needed emotionally out of the scene, there's no need to have a full 'sex scene'. Then you can fade to black. Not before. You don't need apparently TW2 type scenes, where I guess you see extended rolling in the hay or whatever.
So really, the only issue is nudity. There is very little extra expense. The scenes just have to be like ME3, but with nudity and a bit longer. If that slight stretching of the scene is a little too expensive, that's just one more reason to cut down available romances per gender from 4 to 3 each, like DA:O. I don't think they're in such a money crunch that it's an issue though.
The only issue is nudity.
edit: Obviously the person posting below must be referring to the OP. Or at least I hope they didn't misunderstand me that badly.

) But since they are putting it in game i want something of quality not some ridicilous scenes that everybody is in clothing.
