If by “having fun with your friends” you mean the new multiplayer option that has, as far as I am aware (I’ll admit I could be wrong), never been a big thing when it comes to BioWare’s RPGs, then I think you’re going to get laughed at by a lot of ME/ME2 fans.

I play BioWare games to roleplay. For me, it’s kind of like improv acting where you’ve been given a set and some other actors to play around with. Only you can look however you want to for this role without have to gain or lose weight or muscle, you can play someone of the opposite sex without, say, the director telling you your boobs are too big for you to do the role in drag. And the audience will never decide you suck.

I like the “ham-handed romance” and hope there’s a wider variety of options open to both male and female characters. It’s an interactive story. I play for THE STORY. Not the shoot-em-up. Not saying I don’t think ME combat is fun, but IT’S NOT WHY I PLAY.

So you can continue to be shocked and disgusted in your little corner of the gaming world. I will sit over here and enjoy my single-player game.

Dude, they’re just petite. The redesign has its pros and cons (Zevran being perhaps the only con), but can we please stop body shaming the female elves and calling them “pedo-bait?” Thank you.

^^^^^ I like how it’s only petite and skinny women who get called pedobait, yet men who are not tall and muscled are not. Double standards, much?

People also seem to be overlooking the fact that they’re, well, elves. Of course they are going to tend to be slighter than humans.

Humans: don’t think unfavorably of your physiology because it isn’t elven. You are not elves! Laryn is a dwarven broodmother; we don’t toss and turn at night, plagued by thoughts of how we wish we could look more like The Mother, now do we?

BioWare could have made the elves slim and petite without making them look so incredibly unhealthy.

We’re just going to assume that you’ve never met a fellow human with a small frame. They exist, and most probably resent the implication that they look “incredibly unhealthy.”

What is the excuse for the Dalish then? “They walk a lot”? Also, why are the poor, poverty-stricken humans “robust”? Why are they not as skinny as the elves when living in the same conditions?

…Because biology.

They are humans.

All the awards for b-mommy. The elves do not have a human bone structure. Their shoulders are not as wide, nor are their hips. Their bone are not as large.

Also, if we want to get back on the subject of human biology, a person who is under 5’ and fine boned shouldn’t be called “unhealthy.” It’s really insulting to insist that they shouldn’t exist as a body type by saying it’s unhealthy or unnatural to be that size.
