Mass effect "hot" chicks

[Lesd3vil]

You're talking about a bunch of pixels with a scripted personality :| personally I find it very hard to see game characters as anything other than vague representations of humans... It's like all the people who found Merrill 'adorable' in DA2... All I could see was the set-up for a never-ending string of poor jokes at the expense of a character that should have been developed more... It was, in fact, kinda racist. Hand on, that goes without saying, Bioware love the issue of racism don't they -.-

Hey, the Mass Effect characters have more personality than a lot of our "celebrities".

Celebrities have personalities? Well spin my nipple nuts and send me to Alaska!

Don't worry. You;re not alone in not liking what everyone digs.

As someone who plays Fem Shep, I'm not all that keen with being more than just friends with Garrus. Even Thane is a little iffy.
For Male Shep, Ash and Jack are the only people I'd let near him.

That's why Bioware was nice enough to give us a bajillion romances. Just in case, ya know.

I think Miranda's Beauty is deeply buried in the uncanny valley.

 

[aakibar]

The actor who plays miranda looks good if they basically kept her features and changed one or two things ever so slightly the model would be pleasing to the eye but in stead they gave her breasts that would break someone's back. But the other models are good. I think ash looks good for the engine but nothing amazing.

Ashley looks like a man in ME1 and 2.

Miranda has the jaw of Arnold Schwarzenegger.


So, yeah, those two are ugly as sin.

I never thought she looked like a man, more like a fish. Plus she was a racist *****, so I would have gone with Liara by default even if she hadn't been such a likable character. Wouldn't have been able to get Ashley into bed anyway; I left my tackle-box on Earth.

As for Miranda, I don't know. I can see all the things that should make her hideous, but I'm more of a big picture man and don't care about individual features on their own. So her face kinda works I think. Couldn't get past the encyclopedias she stuffs down the back of her pants though. "Superior genetics"? You're fooling no one, sweetie.

Yeah, it's Liara and Jack for me. In that order...wait, that came out wrong.

 

[Gralian]

Ashley was too plain to me and too much of a 'tough chick'. The one that tends to overcompensate to be 'one of the guys'.

Miranda... I just couldn't like Miranda, because of that epic underbite she had going on. Seriously, i couldn't have been the only one to notice this. It put me completely off her. Either she had one hell of a swollen lower lip or her lower jaw was just so fucked up that it protruded constantly.

Surprisingly, while i thought she was weird at first, i thought Jack was fairly hot. I tend to prefer those kinds of 'crazy chicks', i guess. The shaved head, the dark red lips, the wild tattooes, the complete disregard for clothing, it all sells 'crazy' right off the bat.

And while i chose Tali as my love interest, i didn't include her (or Liara) because you're not meant to find either of them particularly 'hot'. Not like how they wanted you to view Miranda, anyway.

 

[Spencer Taylor]

I know she isnt a main character but i personally like Kelly Chambers

 

[kuroikitsune]

My first playthrough of ME2, I had planned to romance Tali. However, as I played I was drawn to Jack. I liked her story. I liked that she had an alternate outfit based on Molly Millions from Neuromancer. She was just a deeper more interesting character. It was just a logical progression of events.

As for Miranda, I was never interested in her. I liked her Loyalty Mission. I thought it was cool that she could meet her sister, etc. That was cool. Otherwise, shrug.

 

[Kermi]

Miranda is not hot. Jack is more attractive and she's bald. Tali is more attractive and you can't see her face.

I never understand why anyone likes Jack at all.
As soon as I picked her up I wanted to kick her out of an airlock.

I thought Jack was a realy stupid character before I played the game (the "introducing Subject Zero" video they did made me think they were ripping off Tank Girl, but less funny and charming), but I kind of game around. I think the "badass ***** with a soft centre" was a bit too predictable, but the rest of the character is nicely nuanced, if you ask me.

 

[kuroikitsune]

To me, the Romance Options, as far as People that are available or that i'd go for if given the Choice from only the latter Bioware Games, well lets see.

Mass Effect:

Shiala (Green Asari Clone Person from Feros)
Samara (Mature and very practical Attitude)
Asari Bartender on Illium (She's like Wrex, just female and a Asari, so there)
quote]

Honestly, that is why I love Bioware games so much. The Asari Bartender is probably one of my favorite characters in Mass Effect and probably one of my favorite characters in video games. She was awesome. Great character, great voice, interesting story. And it was all just some throwaway lines that don't really matter in the overall game. This is why Bioware is a great game studio. Their throwaway characters are more interesting than the lead characters in most games.

 

[stiborge]

I thought Miranda was very attractive. Although I love the voice actress they got to play her from Chuck so perhaps I'm not giving an entirely fair analysis and I still love Liara more than any of them.

 

[kouriichi]

Miranda's jaw can grate diamonds. Seriously, she can mine obsidian with the thing like this dirt to a gold shovel.

But enough minecraft references. The only one i truly found attractive was Tali. The simple fact that we can basically put whatever face to her we want was one thing that made her so appealing. Jack wasnt to bad. Just a bit to..... "Butch" for my tastes.

I do hope they give the option for you to see Tali's face in the next game though. I dont thinkit would hurt to give us the option of "Ye or Ney" on knowing what she looks like.

 

[Jabberwock King]

I attribute this to the fact that Bioware isn't very good at making attractive humans. Some exceptions, but Ashley and Kaidan were in desperate need of an overhaul IMO and I'm glad they did so, even if the fandumb starts bitching at me about how she looks like a whore now (I don't care, better a whore than a... something) or that changing anything makes it automatically suck.

 

[radioactive lemur]

Agree with you on Miranda.

The weird thing is that Miranda is modeled after (and voiced by) Yvonne Strahovski, or as I like to call her, Yvonne Strahotski:

And yet they made her out to be this weird, big-headed Michael Jackson look-alike.

Miranda is hot, even fappable, but Yvonne is WAAAAAAYYYYYYY hotter. They really fucked up if Miranda was modeled after her.

 

[HazelrahFiver]

I am a bit puzzled by this naysaying of Miranda's looks. Hell, she looks almost exactly like Stra'hot'ski and she is absolutely beautiful. I was shocked at how well Miranda came out when I first started the game. I thought Bioware was going to botch it, but Miranda probably has the 'best face in a video game' (easy enough to do, considering her model).

P.S. Ashley is disturbing in appearance, and Jack is attractive.

That's horribly creepy considering I know a girl called Yvonne that looks almost exactly the same, but about 10 years younger (assuming she's 25 or so).

Pointing out sexism =/= movement, dude. I'm just calling it like I see it, when I see it. And I absolutely see massive sexism in bioware when 90% of their female characters are hilariously objectified and/or doormats.
