A "save the willies" campaign should be immediately launched. They could hook up with the gaystapo, since their goals are so similairlt idiotic.

Don't worry, you probably won't live to see the year 2185.  Hell, if you eat KFC /Taco Bell every day you may not even live to see 2030.

Well it is like 500 years in the future. I don't think it would be unreasonable to say they've developed some kind of gene therapy that can be implemented on a baby before it is born. And it makes them healthier, including faster metabolism possibly. I remember hearing somewhere in ME1 that the average human life span is 150 years.


500 years in the future?  Not even close.  Mass Effect 2 takes place in 2185.


That was an exaggeration.

Anyone ever realize that there are no heavyset humans in the mass effect universe.  Everyone has a similar build.  It isn't really obvious unless you think about it.  I think Bioware could add a lot more story and humor if they included some overwight villians.  What do you think about this problem?


Uh, did you actually examine Captain Anderson's face? He's relatively "heavyset" (just not obese) and he's in the military.

Personally I think it's because people have gotten smarter about their dietary balance in the future (or one could hope at any rate.)

From a programming point of view, its just easier to use one body type

from a sci fi point of view, one could make the argument for chemicals/genetic engineering that enchance muscle growth and dont allow for build up of excess fat.

Whay say it then you know it would just get pointed out :P

Also FYI the 150 years thing was with Ashley in ME1 ( I just had the conversation) and she says "Humans are lucky to live to 150 years old"
I could not imagine living that long. I am closing in on 30 and think I have long out lived my usefullness :)

The Volus. They're mostly traders, so they can afford lots of pies.

One body only. If you pay attention, you'll notice that there's only one animation set. Creating Obese people would involve changing the geometry of the character, which would then involve new models and animation sets, which would then add to the already gigantic 15 gb of space on my hard drive this game takes, not to mention the work involved in creating these new assets. You'd have to create new heads to go along with the hefty bodies, so that would involve a whole new series of blend shapes for facial animation, and for randomizing individual characters overall appearance. All this work, for something that just isn't necessary.

%90 of the people you meet in game are military. They tend to frown on excess weight.

Drugs created currently can make someone drop a lot within weeks ,why not modify someone not to be fat.

Obviously, the people of the future use cybernetic implants which employ mass effect fields in order to drain excess fat through singularities. It is quite simple.

I think they actually explained that in the ME1 codex, something about gene therapy and stuff.

Too bad, I liked the idea of biotics giving people liposuction with black holes.

I, too, like this theory, and is way more plausible than stupid "gene therapy". Talk about high fantasy right there!
