The sex scenes in BioWare's upcoming next-generation role-playing game Dragon Age: Inquisition will take inspiration from Mass Effect and be "mature and tasteful," according to cinematic director Jonathan Perry.

"I think Mass Effect’s scenes were done really well and I think we will take Inquisition’s scenes in that direction," Perry told GamerZines. "You might have a nude character but they are framed in such a way that parts of them are in shadow, or having characters in various states of undress."

"We also want to focus not just on the sex itself, but also that this is the culmination of spending a lot of time with a
character and getting to know them, and so we’re giving scenes a mature and tasteful treatment I guess," he added. "We’ll see where it goes for Dragon Age: Inquisition; it’s something that we’re working on right now so we’ll see how these scenes pan out."

Asked if video games could match film in their ability to portray a scene of intimacy, Perry said it is "inevitable" that
games will be able to do this some day, when they can cross the "uncanny valley." Ultimately though, the interactive nature of games will always separate them from films, Perry said.

"But I think that games can be powerful in a very different way because they are interactive and they are based on your choices," Perry said. "They can react to what you’re doing and that’s something you don’t get in film as you are a
passive viewer."

Dragon Age: Inquisition runs on the Frostbite 3 engine, the technology also behind upcoming games Battlefield 4 and Need for Speed: Rivals. Perry said creating sex scenes that feel genuine and believable will be "incredibly expensive in terms of animation fidelity."

The role-playing game was recently delayed one year. It is now due out in fall 2014 for the Xbox 360, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, and PC


Money well spent. <_<

Sounds good, especially that it seems like it will be "romance scenes" rather than "sex scenes."

bolded is by far the most important part.

If it costs too many zots, just go with fade-to-black.  It's supposed to be a "love" scene, not a "sex" scene, right?

I don`t see why a sex scene would cost more than a regular cutscene, to be honest.

No, it's called wasting money on pointless sh!t. Or, in Biowares case, wasting money on pointless sh!t they can't even do well.

Based on what, you?

The romances are something many fans love (and demand) in biowares games. If it pleases them, and/or attracts more consumers and spawns good publicity, there is no logical reason why it should be either pointless or wasted.

I'd rather have a fade to black and more romances content , too.

By this I mean more little stuff along the way that reminds you that you're actually in a romance.
I don't know things like after a bad event , Varric writes your pc a long epic love poem to cheer you up .( and bring a lot of beer , poetry is awful)

I dunno how budgetting works either for these things. But it sounds like proper animation would be a nontrivial task.

Sounds good. In fact, just about everything about the game sounds good except for a lack of health regeneration and some concerns about the main story...

Mass Effect is a good series to emulate.

Generally speaking the ME series has handled romance/sex scenes better than the DA series and comparable games like the Witcher.

Which just goes to show how laughable most Bioware fans are.

For that to happen they would have to be good. And Bioware are ****ing terrible at making sex scenes.

Well combat tweaking must be wasting money too then since according to the fandom both games' were awful.<_<

According to you. I think people should just appreciate what they like and keep their judgement of others out of it. It doesn't belong in this debate wether or not you think people feel the right way.

I think bioware has donw fine with previous love scenes, perhaps far from perfect, but that just means it's a area that needs development and not exclusion to me.

Well, DA2 was a vast improvement over DAO and on par with ME2. It's getting there.

Why don't people who want sex scenes just go away and watch porn? Then they wouldn't have to worry about the romance content at all.

From what I've heard of the Witcher even Skyrim handled it better.:P

Because integration of roleplaying elements into the story. Why don't people who don't want sex scenes just skip them?
