But in all seriousness, I'm still confused on how all the men are so buff and all the women have perfect figures. They could've added a bit of realism by making Average looking bodies, fat people and skinny people. Heck, maybe add a few case of Dwarfism and Gigantism?

In all seriousness all characters sharing the same body type per species/gender combination is par for the course in video games. Different body types have to be made, and it can also require adjusting (or making entirely new) equipment models to match these body types. The animations have also be done in way which works with all versions. All this extra work can be instead utilized to produce some other (and considered more important by the devs) elements of the game.

And heck, with Mass Effect they didn't even have resources to create female models for number of species. Making more than one model for each type is like, entirely different level of fidelity.

Fat people don't have feelings so it's not as if Bioware are offending them.

That was done out of necessity. It would be a much more time consuming endeavor to create lots of individual body types for characters, so they just repeat the same few for all the characters of the smae race in gender. Actually, most games of this (or a similar) genre do that. For example, Oblivion, DA, WoW.

I like to think that anyone who lives in space is adventorous and thus wouldn't let themselves get fat and actually have the sense to work out and eat a healthy diet.

Now you're discriminating against fat adventurous people.

You would think that reanimating a long dead corpse is far more difficult than preventing obesity. Obesity is a disease, and would more than likely have been cured, one way or another.

Also, models are hard work, and making fat ones would take too long to bother with.

Did you notice that the vast majority of people are identical from the neck down and there are only a handful of hairstyles in the future?

Also there are no children.

I attribute all of these to a phenomenon in the current day called "Copy and Paste is way easier than making new ****".

Nobody knows how to dance in the future either. Besides the strippers apparently.



And there are fat people there, they are just using a mass effect field to hold it all in. Gottta fit into the tiny space suits.

That's an oxymoron, there aren't any fat adventurous people.

Its the future. When diseases such as AIDS and Ebola have been eradicated by medicine, obesity probably followed suit. Plus with genetic engineering and the right tech, fatness can be eradicated easily if a person happens to suddenly gain a few pounds too much.

We are not sure where this thread is going, but it is interesting to see your human reactions to stimuli- *buzz* OUR reaction to stimu- *buzz-click* ...certain threads.

Posting in epic thread.

I feel that we need a thread titled 'Your mom was poorly represented in the Mass Effect Universe'.

Mass Effect needs more midgets. Human midgets.

Fatness is a sickness that was cured in the future thank man kind. Appart from volus's kind who are fat.

[AlekseiVasily]

Hopefully they were exterminated.

[Tyreal42a]

Probably all killed by husks, which are basically the zombies of the future. Didn't you see rule #1 in Zombieland?

I may have crossed a line there.

Yeah I think you did.

No more than the attacking fat people.

But what does that matter, hmm? They don't have feelings like people do. <_<

You got your fatties in the Volus, so stop with these...disingenuous assertions!

[Gabey5]

umm did you read the books.. its explained there...

Fat people are disgusting. No one wants to look at fatties in their video games.

Says somebody whose probably fat.

Im fat, but I served 6 years in the Army and deserve to be fat.  After that **** I didnt want to do another day of exercise in my life.  Although my idea of fat may be different from others, Im 6ft 220 and thats fat to me.


So my point, I dont care if fat people are in a game, and I am not going to write letters of disgust if they are.  That fat guy coulda been a badass at a time, and might still have sumthin left.

I feel that the indigenous pygmy people of the amazon are not fairly represented in the ME universe.

This topic is bull****. For most of human existence, future or past, obesity will/has been uncommon. Through most of history, obesity has been almost excluded to the relatively rich, especially within urban areas. And this period where obesity is extremely common won't last very long, science will change things. Genetic engineering, and science, which will by 21xx know how to allow one to eat like a pig while still having a "healthy" diet, will make obesity virtually inexistent.

Indeed! Science will cure all our ails in 50 years!
