Honestly nobody deserves to be punched for asking tough questions in an interview.

But it's renegade shepard, he doesn't care what people deserve.

tablid journalists (espeically the ones working at fox "news" ) are the lowest form of scum on earth.  I have no sympathy for any "accidents" that happen to them when they shove cameras in peoples faces.

this thread is dumb, the game is made for you to make your own choices.

This comment is dumb, since the game didn't allow me the (much more logical) choice to punch the camera.

Well no. The much more logical renegade choice would have been to break the camera over her head. I think renegade Shepard showed remarkable restraint.

You know assuming that just because she's a woman that she can't take a punch in the mouth is extremely sexist and while you think you are Captain-Save-A-Hoe, mister OP, you are actually perpetuating sexism and the oppression of woman by making this post and crying about a woman being punched in the mouth.

It's 2010. The sexes are equal now. Woman deserve a punch in the mouth when they ****** on people just like men do. Because men and woman are equal.

MASSIVE F*CKING PLUS ONE.

Whilst I am still caught up to a degree in the social stigma of hitting a women (I have never, intentionally, struck a woman in an act of aggression - accidentally elbowed a female work colleague whilst working on a bar at a nightclub a couple times though - damned confined spaces), I still believe that sex does not give you a get out of jail free card when it comes to violence.

My theory is, (not specifically relating to this case), if she's willing to throw a punch, she's damn well willing to cop a punch.

Abriael_CG this sounds like it personally butthurt you

and yea you are the most sexist person in this thread.

She was an **** who needed a punch
He was an **** who needed a punch


Difference? none

There's a big difference between shooting a woman that's shooting at you (or pointing a gun at you in a few cases) and using violence with one that's just talking.

If you didn't choose wisely in ME1 she did a hatchet job on some Shepards. I can see why people would punch her lights out. I might have too, but then my Shepard turned the tables on her in ME1 and made her look like an idiot, so I just did the same thing again. I prefer talking to using my fists, but hey, people have a right to choose what they want to do (I was considering clocking her, but meh, my Paragon side won out ). I'm female btw, and it doesn't really bother me. If it were a male reporter, I guess you wouldn't have a problem?

[Wintermist]

She's the only one he actually punches in the face too, which makes you wonder what kind of man Shepard really is. Though he does headbutt a Krogan, all the rest get a stomach punch.

When i was confronted by the annoying journalist in the citadel, and saw that renegade icon flashing on the screen, I fully expected Shepard to punch or shoot or somwhow break the floating camera. I was extreemly surprised to see him punch the girl straight in the face.

I know, It's just a game, and it's a renegade choice so you're definitely not representing a saint, but still... punching a civilian woman that, while annoying, is just blabbering? 
Mind you, I'm not here crying to the scandal and bringing out stuff about encouraging the beating of women... but Am I the only one that found that just a tad over the top?

This is an M+ rated game.  Anybody playing should have the maturity for that kind of subject matter.  Those who dont either shouldnt be playing or need proffessional help.

Interesting response. So you mean not flinching at the idea of beating a woman is a matter of "maturity"? 

Oh well, whatever floats your boat, mate.

Sure, Go out and punch a woman in the face. Let's see where you end, in 2010.
Goodness, this comment is quite disgusting.

Gallantry doesn't really equals to sexism.

he can hit me in the face...though the rule is make sure it puts me out, because when I return the favor it's going to escalate.

then again, Im born and raised from a culture where the only difference between sexses is purely political, that said I'm personally more offended by a male who is too affraid to try for one reason or another " should I have provoked it that is"  if it's done without provocation, it's a douche move, regardless if your decking a male or female



but thats my take.

back on the topic " or alittle more on topic" I've been tempted to deck her a few times, but playing paragon, it's one of the options I just avoid reluctantly.

[Cheita_Corps]

Comon OP you're acting like he pistol whipped her. But yeah, I prefer to have my female Shepard to punch her out than my male one.



Still though, its a continuation of what happened in the first ME. You have the OPTION of punching her out just like in the first one. If you don't want to renegade punch her out you can still shut her up with a renegade option without using the interrupt. Thats how it was in ME1 as well.

[Jzier]

stop doing the damm whistling notes, you come off as a condescending idiot.



And if it was a man reporter eating a fist you wouldent have a problem?

Well, I didn't try the renegade option in ME1, so I didn't really know. And that's IMHO, one of the flaws of the interrupt system. You know that you'll gonna act like "generic paladin" or "generic douche", but in the end, besides a few times, you don't really know what you're going to do, and have no control over it.

Given how freely you avoid discussion by moving to personal attacks, I'm not surprised at all that this matter doesn't bother you.
Youngsters nowadays need ways to funnel their aggressivity, I guess...

That's why the game is fun, you pick the direction of your own movie...

And you are a fool to call me a youngster. You have already proved your own immaturity to this entire board by not being able to seperate video game world from the real world. So don't lecture me.

And i've already addressed the argument, its a video game, not the real world, and if you cant seperate them, thats said. It's hyper reality.

In the first game I didn't punch her. On the second I did and Shepard said:



"I've been wanting to do that ever since the last time you interviewed me!"

Really? Wouldn't that require a lil more control than giving "generic paladin" and "generic douche" options without any kind of real control on what those options will entail?

I am mature enough to understand that what happens in a videogame does not reflect how one should act in reality. 

[GnusmasTHX]

Stupid topic.



Don't want her punched? Don't hit the interrupt.

You should have read the OP better. You do not *know* that shepard is going off on such an extreme action until you do it. There are at least 5 different things he could have done instead that would have still fit in the "renegade" character without being such an absolute douche.

That's hardly control over the action.

The beauty of this game is that you can pick a path that's right for you.



To put it into perspective, when I did that sequence on my playthrough, I went Paragon because that fit my playstyle. I was entertained by turning the interview around on her.



Meanwhile my wife (who you might guess is female) punched out the reporter and was laughing hysterically at it. She was entertained that the game let her do exactly what she was thinking at the time.



She's hoping for a similar renegade interrupt when she runs into Kaidan in ME3, but thats another tale.

[Jzier]

Gnusmas, thank you

and wtf is with you man haha, now your just nit picking the specific's of Bioware's renegade action. It's obviously a continuation of ME1, if you want it fixed go ahead and rewind to 2006 and have them change the option then. It's too late. No one else is complaining.

Thats why you save beforehand. Interrupts are spontaneous, paragon or renegade. Like you said, not many of them have foreshadowing but this particular interrupt was pretty predictable considering the context established from encountering her in the first ME.

If it were a paragon interrupt it might have involved the camera.
