They said that love is a many splendored thing.


I guess you might want to clarify who "they" are, though, in this case.

They said no one cared enough and they are cutting romances. Instead focusing on making compelling characters without pandering to creeps who want to **** them.

They said that many players' long denied dream of being able to romance Kevin Michael Richardson will come true.*

*may or may not have been made up

In a strange bit of game design, every potential romance character will be anti-playersexual and will always have the opposite sexual inclination of your player character. Thus, they can never be achieved. Nobody's really sure why they're there at all.

The sole romance option is an all-male orgy taking the form of a quick-time event.

Press 'O' repeatedly.

It is also mandatory for the best ending. How do you think those templars got to be so red?

These attitudes tie heavily into a feminist concept known as 'Effortless Perfection.' One of the fairly few I find merit in. I've been meaning to write a paper on it sooner or later.

They didn't really say anything about romance in the podcast and said they are keeping those details close until they are ready to announce them and someone already uploaded the link to the GI article

Care to give us a synopsis of your application of the concept, David?

Wow, you really didn't hear? Well get a load of this:

Image IPB

The long-rumored Broodmother romance is finally coming. Bioware said they wanted to appeal to the widest audience possible when it came to not just the gameplay itself, but also the romances - and therefore a Broodmother romance was not only a possibility but a necessity.

In particular, Bioware wants to branch out to the hentai crowd, who do so love their tentacles. The Broodmother in DA:I will have a tentacle for every occasion, including some you didn't think a tentacle could be used for. The blood, vomit, morbid obesity, and cannibalism are sure to win the hearts and minds of some fans as well.

It's gonna be a real crowd pleaser, they think. I know I'm looking forward to it. <3

Basically, physical beauty is appreciated as a good and desireable thing, but only so long as it's effortless.

As soon as effort is put into creating or maintaining beauty, a great deal of negative perceptions pour in that wouldn't otherwise be there.

Obviously, this has a huge impact on fiction and video games in particular, since everything that exists must be specifically put in by the developers.

I'm intrigued. Can you elaborate on what I've bolded?

They said they're integrating full support for the oculus rift.

Thank the Maker!

Well, beauty in the abstract is pretty much good by definition. You know, you think of something like a goddess or a nymph. In the myths, they always exist above humanity, or in isolation from it. Goddesses aren't beautiful for any particular reason, they aren't beautiful for man's benefit, they just are.

But when people consider man-made beauty, the tend to look at the apparent motivations and get angry. Why is she beautiful? It must be to seduce me! To get my money! To get my attention! How dare she! The fact that she put effort into it must be proof! A goddess is beautiful simply because she is. But the woman who put effort into it must have done it for a reason.

If you haven't noticed, basically any attractive character gets a backlash. They get accusations that they must have been attractive for attention. For advertising. For 13-year-old boys and basement dwellers.

The logic is pretty much as follows:

- Alice is attractive.

- Alice doesn't have to be attractive! Her character would function without it! The story would function without it! The developers must have made her attractive for a reason!

- Alice must be attractive because the developers want to bring in basement-dwelling teenagers! It's so obvious!
