It's early days yet, but I was wondering if BioWare and/or their writers had an opinion on this?

I thought of that, too.   And here's more information on their guidlines.
Official Amazon Post For Authors

This a very interesting situation.The limitations they imposed on what they will accept cuts out...probably 60% of the really good ones I've read.  I guess they accept fluff so...

I don't in anyway consider depictions of 'sexual acts' and 'violence' to be offensive.  If I don't like it, it's probably because I think it could have been written in a better way.  Or it's just...weird.  Nonsensical.
And...does that mean Shepard can't call batarians 'squints', salarians 'frogs' or 'lizards',  quarians 'bucketheads', or turians 'birds' and 'skull-face'?  Cause those are racial slurs.    

I'm not working with Amazon if I can't write offensive and non-existent racial slurs! D:<

Fan fiction containing sexually explicit scenes will not be accepted, the firm said.

Way to alienate 90% of the market.
