yeah. its good in all the right places and bad in good ways in all the right places for me to love the series. i think bioware has definatly lost touch over the years in various ways, but they can still make ok stuff so far. then again i dislike very few dev companies. basicaly gearbox(liars/cheats/and cant make good games) and Chinese room (pretentious dickfucks who try to poo poo on other companies to look better) are the only really awful ones that i hope implode into financial ruin. bioware hasnt hit those levels yet.

And at least Bioware is still making and delivering games. Why yes I'm still waiting for Half-Life 3.

Got a laugh out of Civilization: Beyond Earth poking fun at Valve and Half-Life three with CBE's expansion. When the game "Isotopic Decay 3" was released, it cratered the economies of all the industrialized Earth nations, the International Space Station, and the Lunar colonies from everyone taking off work to play it, the resulting economic disaster being one of the key events leading to World War 3.

Just saw that Suvi Anwar, the Tempest's science officer (and also devout religious believer and strongly suggested to be lesbian romance), might get a bad case of accent backlash from fans. Suvi is from Scotland, and her voice actress is a Glasgow native, so I won't be surprised if there's cries that her accent is totally fake and unrealistic.

As a human, I can tell you that getting blown by a rock face is no fun, either. Let's not take sides, the way the parks department did. :argh:

Top middle, bottom middle, and bottom right are the only ones that look like something that could have evolved without being a big handicap. Your pick is the most aesthetically pleasing and the least bad of the "grab here and twist" designs.

Bottom middle has a vagina in its face so most Bioware fans would probably prefer that one.

maybe. i havent seen enough of the rock men to form a opinion. i am sure they will be ok. I am trying to figure out what generic sci fi faction trope they will be. my guess is covenant type empire or scavenger race. maybe a klingon type deal.
