There are also lines where Meer is spot on and Hale is overly emotional.  I have a feeling that they wanted Manshep to have the dialogue the way that Meer said it.  Meer has done other voice work and conveyed emotion.... but seriously.... you expect a battle hardened soldier to phased by the crap that Shepard faces?

That was what the other member posted in response to my question in the manShep thread.  I do agree that a battle hardened soldier is going to be resistant to displaying and feeling emotions that others wouldn't be resistant to.  However, even the most battle hardened soldiers are still susceptible to some emotion.  Especially in combat.

And he does show some emotion... but I feel like Hale is a lttle overly emotional (do to voice directing I'm assuming... just like Meer).

Example... if Manshep romanced Ashley and they meet on Horizon... then his call to Joker after the meeting with her is slightly sadder and depressing.  Femshep has the same thing happen with Kaidan... but it is more noticable with Manshep.

So, Tali gets her own t-shirt, on the Bioware store. If you had to design a single item of Jack-related merchandise, what would it be?

A long-sleeved shirt with her ink on, down the arms, and back and front. 

That would be feck'n sweet. 

Be more a girl shirt, really, but it'd look cool, regardless.

Oops.  Beaten to it - don't matter - still cool.

Does that come with the belt bra?

Gotta keep it simple with T-shirts if you want them to be wearable, unless you can pull off something really artistic. 

I'd take a shirt that just had Jack's Omega tattoo across the back; same size. If that's too empty (it might be) or they need something on the front, it might look good with the Omega symbol and her tree tattoo going across the side in the same place she has it. You wouldn't have anything on the front except part of the tree coming over from the side, which I think would look cool.

(For reference:)

Optional.   

I mean, c'mon - Jack's uber-tough - that ink goes over those nips.  They ain't there to see, I'd wager.  That stoopid "bra" is only there to guard against the delicate sensibilities of those gamers who lean more to being complete ******. 

What a feck'n load that is.  I'll take naked ****** over spattered brains any day.

C'mon - wouldn't that whole thing look wicked on a T?  Throw in the surgical overlays, and the lot.  Skip the bra and hidden nips (sheesh). 

It'd be epic as a shirt.

I WANT THOSE BOOTS. NOW.

But yes, a T-shirt with her tattoos or her black silouette (as seen in the screenshot you guys posted) would be great.
The only problem is that I'd probably never buy it anyway, as the parcel will probably get lost during its long journey from America to Europe. In Italy things get lost from Rome to Venice, just to make an example.

This. Bear in mind the topless concept art. Some puritanical moron at head office (probably one of those f*cking idiots that get all bent out of shape if a woman chooses to breastfeed in a public place) probably thought it'd mean another tirade from sh*t-for-brains conservative journalists about the evils of a game with a topless character <_<

Newsflash - everyone has nipples. What's the big deal?

[Mondo47]

My issue is this - the halter serves no purpose other than to cover Jack's nipples. It is a minimal costume; evidently in place to on one hand show off as much of the tattooing as possible (because this is Jack's costume, really), but why opt for something as impractical as the halter? If you want to show off as much of the ink as possible, go the route the art used in the litho being sold went? Or, if boobs are such a touchy subject, why not use the costume as shown in the Blur studios vid? The halter, as much as it's now a part of Jack, needs some logic to hang it on, because as it stands (joking aside) the only thing it hangs on is her nipples.

And why do you keep going on about aboriginal peoples? It's a couple of hundred years in the future - I doubt very much that there won't have been a fashion trend here or there that involved public exposure of taboo areas of the human body (I always used to surmise that the way the material sections of a quarian envirosuit were deliberately pulled to one side of the chest in ME1 that the traditional pre-suitbound-society dress involved an exposed breast). It's occured numerous times through the ages in so-called 'civilised' society. And if the argument is it is there for some form of skin insulation or protection... how the hell does it do more than keep a tiny part of her warm and safe? I just do not buy the argument here.

I'm sorry, but we're going to contine to agree to disagree on this one, Johnny. If it's not there just to shield our fwagile little minds from bits of Jack we're not supposed to see for risk of us being depraved or corrupted, then at least give us a clue why. Most of the appearance designs that have appeared involved more clothing than now, so it just seems to me facile to argue the logic behind the damn thing. I don't dislike it, I just find the most logical conclusion for its existence a little patronising in the 21st century (or the 22nd for that matter).

Oh, and currently, I don't have a shirt on

Yup... I'm not sure if someone has posted the link already, but the full shoot and details can be found here. Really impressive, I think.

A few of my favourite images:

This.  In Canada, it is perfectly legal for a woman to go topless, in public, wherever she chooses. That did not, however, open the floodgates to exposed bewbs everywhere.  It was more having the right to the choice.  Of course, in Canada, we also treat gay people like they were people!  I know, I know, we're a liberal, socialist sinkhole destined for eternal hellfire or some sh!t.

*Shrug* What can you do?

Me, either!  

[Pacifien]

You know what impresses me about the Jack cosplay is that the girl actually shaved her head to match Jack.

[Yana Montana]

I got the impression that she's got her head shaved before the shoot not for it.
She looks very young, about 20 or so.

Actually, she's 28. And it seems she did shave her head especially for the shoot. :happy:

[Collider]

Realistically speaking, having Jack completely topless does cause more problems for Bioware. And we can't really assume (unless there is some dev/writer comment that I am not aware of, which upon writing this I have a suspicion that there may be) that the devs would have gone with her being topless instead of the belt bra had controversy not been a concern.
