This is an M-rated game. I don't think I need to say that the content in the game is designed for a mature audience.

Boom! Right out of the gate.

Bioware doesn't get to choose their own rating, the ratings classification boards of individual countries do that, according to their own specific standards. To say that a game rating is in any way indicative of authorial intent is absurdly fallcious.

Since Bioware already stated that this game will have love scenes, I looked back at their recento  titles of Me3 and DA2, and the "sex scenes" in those games.

"Love" =/= "sex". A "love scene" is not the same as a "sex scene".

I would say Isabella had the hottest scene in DA2, but there was no nudity at all, which makes me scratch my head as why I wouldn't see nudoty with a busty pirate. 

Me3 had it worse, everyone was in their clothing, except liara. I would say the most distasteful scene was traynor's shower scene. Who showers with clothes on? 

Really, scenes like those are quite a waste of everyone's time and can even go as insulting the player's intelligence. I would rather have sex scenes scrapped and make whatever time/resources available to be used for something else. 

Though that's not going to happen, I would like to start this discussion on whether or not sex scenes should include full/partial nudity.

Let me be perfectly clear: No Dragon Age or Mass Effect game has ever shown us anything that could even be mistaken for sex, and that includes DA:O and its awkwardly long orchestrated interludes of clumsy groping.

Fade to black is by far the superior choice. The animators have a hard enough time crafting a convincing kiss as it is, and I have to play these games in the lounge room with my family around me. Knowing what characters look like naked doesn't add any depth to them, or progress their narratives in any meaningful way, so who cares?

If that is true then that is stupid people getting banned for expressing an opinion in a mature manner about making the game better, if that is the case then that would be it for me and Bioware, plain talk... disagreeing with someone is one thing but to punish someone for an opinion... nah, so fo bioware sake i hope you are telling falsehoods :)

This was settled.
Gaider will get mad and he or one of the mods will close this thread. Maybe hand out bans.
Perry explained it in an interview , I strongly suggest the OP read it.

I agree there is a clear double standard, alchool drugs, obscenities head comig off, hundreds dying, killing children but you draw some line at sex... for a rated M game...smh

I don't care either way, but I've always thought it's funny how it's perfectly acceptable to shoot, kill and mutilate people in all kinds of ways in a video game but when it's time for snu snu all of a sudden it's too "edgy" and a game's rating will become AO and risk not being carried by most major retailers. (see GTA San Andreas)

^ "Mature manner"

You haven't seen most of the threads like this then.  It often degrades to the pro nudity crowd calling the ones that don't care/want it in game prudes and such, despite many of them saying otherwise or they say "violencesand stuff is ok, but nudity isn't?  Da hell is wrong with you?"

I think that if you aren't going to make the sex scenes realistic (I don't mean porn), then its better to fade to black. ME3's sex scenes where silly, who takes a shower with clothes on? If you are going to do it, do it with a bit of sense and in good taste.

Mass Effect always had the best love scenes. If DAI can do the same or similar with the scenes posted I would be happy. And for the love of God, have the characters use the sheets on the bed.  lol!

Didn't they say that they would make the love scene more tasteful akin to ME1 since there's a lot of good feedback on it?

Oh for goodness sake read the damn article. And if you REALLY your fix of a "Mature" love scene wait for mods just like what people did for Origins. And of course if no such modding will be allowed then just get over it and enjoy the rest of the game.

or use a internet rule as part of google search to get the pictures you so despertly need.


TL:DR version of my views on this is.

Yes its a dumb standard that Americans use, Killed millions in the street is ok, doing exicutions that would make grown men sick is ok. But show boobies and nuidity thats "not ok"

Its dumb we all know it. But what can you do. I mean we just had a Security of State cover up a statue. And we as taxpayers allowed it to happen.

As for if its NEEDED its not. It really isn't people. tastful romance scences where that tastful, where anyone would watch it and like yea that was good. 

Also if you really need the porns there are plenty of free sites out there i mean ffs its the internet. Just make sure your packing a good AV software, The internet vesion of a condom. Don't know what kind of STDs your computer can pick up out there.

This is why I only watch American Pie movies, because their sex scenes don't insult my intelligence. Now excuse me while I play God of War III for it's totally believable Aphrodite scene.

Seriously though, hasn't this topic been beaten to death already?

Nothing wrong with some wholesome dry-humping.

I'd be perfectly fine with fade to black.

Me too.  I do romances for the.. well, the romance.  Love.  Sex is just the "end of the romance quest" culmination thingy that I feel obligated to do.  I could do without it.

Indeed. I think the wait is what made it SO worth it. Honestly, that was probably the best romance I have ever enjoyed in a game. Kaidan certainly had me swooning.:wub::wub:

Yeah, that Liara scene is like WOW...

...not so much that I find it attractive, but it's clearly designed to be very, very erotic, what with the whole "world explodes in color" thing.

I would have loved to have Kaidan's biotics do the same thing in his scene. It was rather cool.

Yeah, I suppose from a technical standpoint it's neat.

Not something I'd really go bragging about in my favorite video game series though...
