I'm surprised no one spotted the blatant anti-dwarf racism here. Dwarves are evil creatures like demons and monsters indeed...

I assume it is because humans are always classified independently of everything else as they are 'real'. Whereas elves, dwarves, demons, and monsters are all 'fantasy' creatures/people.

Agreed, we must end this oppression of the short peoples! (love the DA dwarves, despite me being an above average height myself o.O )

Those lines sound hilarious out of context.  

 

But woo naked people!

All answers yes but I have no idea where the rating gets its information from.  Is this rating 100% from actually playing finished game content?  Is it from reading a script and game content?  I don't know how these ratings work.  Do the raters sit down in front of a screen, play the game and write notes?  do they do that and look at in game dialogue?  How is this dialogue presented to them?

 

Bioware/EA basically send them a DVD of the most "extreme" stuff, together with a representative sample of the game as a whole.  The ESRB don't play the game.  Though they might go check after the game is released, particularly if they get complaints

But dwarves have simply amazing beards! How can they be oppressed?

I like that it was dwarves not Elves.

Well look at it this way - if Bob's opinion is "I don't like sexual content, and I don't really want it in my video games" and Stuart's opinion is "I love sexual content, I want to see it in more video games", why is Bob's opinion considered less valid than Stuart's opinion?

Tbh I'm more excited for the butts then the boobies.

 

If we see nip though that's a pretty big deal. Not even Bayonetta shows nip.

In this instance it is because Sexual Content is optional. Bob can avoid it fairly easily.

Dwarves are a noble people!

Also the offensive generalising of protagonists.

Not all PC's are warriors

Warriors just happen to be more equal.

Indeed  I'm pretty sure my first completion of Origins was a Dwarf Noble, though that was 5 years and 5 other playthroughs ago, so I'm not entirely sure XD

Super intelligent shade of red confirmed as player class!

Warriors are just better.

This rating has made my day.

Do you simply cast clouds of rouge as a type of AOE on allies/enemies, or is it more like a case of rouge suddenly being magicked onto other peoples' faces?

What colors do you specialize in? And why does it make you so proud?

I would say neither, the game developers ultimately decide if sexual content makes sense in the game their making. I mean their are plenty of games with zero sexual content because there's no need for it, so when the developer decides its inclusion adds to the experience why shouldn't sexual content be included?

[DinX64]

Blue,Red , or Green depends on the day of the week

Edit: Sometimes I refuse to pick one.

“The way your t*ts bounce when I pin your arms and take you on the side of the bed…”

Bioware continues it's immensely useful tradition of helping me come up with lines for the ladies.

 

This may even top:

 

-"I'm curious about a band called Expel 10."

 

-"You wanna get out of here?"

[Bekkael]

Reading through this thread is like reading through a discussion of a pack of giggling teenagers.

 

Oh, children.....

[llandwynwyn]

well, we better see more than t*ts bouncing in this game.

[Heimdall]

It's still true.  People in the US easily forget about violence in the media, but any sexual content sticks in their mind and is either greeted with approval or disgust.  There's no real middle-ground, and if there is, it's completely drowned out by the arguments on both sides.

In video games in particular, that owes much to the abiding impression in the media that video games are supposed to be for children. Simulated violence has been an acceptable mode of play, especially for boys, for much longer than video games have been around. Simulated sex... less so. That said, it's not as if ultra-violence has never aroused controversy, look back to the original reception of Mortal Kombat titles. It's faded over the years, but it's still there today. Now that sex is having a greater onscreen presence, the same thing may happen.

That, and many people simply feel that onscreen sex is senseless titillation that cheapens the experience in order to attract the lowest common denominator.

[XMissWooX]

In this instance it is because Sexual Content is optional. Bob can avoid it fairly easily.

That is a good point, and DAI seems to handle the situation pretty well. I believe it's been stated that, for some romances, sex can be turned down, which also helps those who don't really want that content to avoid it.
It just seems to me that Bioware is doing a much better job of respecting both of those opinions than some of the posters here. :/

[NoForgiveness]

Is it weird that this gets me really excited? I mean, not in a "sexual pleasure" way but just like normally. The gory stuff sounds better than it was in the other games. The sex scenes are no longer silly "let's play in our underwear" scenes. And swearing is just pure ****** awesomeness.


Btw, I realize those lines are out of context but who the hell would actually say the sexual pleasure one? It makes me think it's more of a joke line or something.
