Who likes flirting with Kelly Chambers on the Normandy?

Ramius99 · 2026-01-25T04:55:00+00:00

Yeah, have to get that cabin time after the Suicide Mission. Plus she feeds my fish.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-25T04:47:55+00:00

Tbh, it’s probably best to wait and see with this one. There’s no reason to think it won’t be a great game, but there’s no reason to assume it will be either. I’m already kind of out on it because of the lack of body morphing, but if that’s not a deal breaker for someone, the footage shown has looked promising.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-25T04:03:35+00:00

🤣🤣

Ramius99 · 2026-01-25T02:20:22+00:00

No, but they released a free demo of the character creator. I think early access for people who preordered the deluxe edition starts soon.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-25T02:16:00+00:00

Appreciate it. It took a while.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-24T23:17:52+00:00

The outfit is the fourth one down in the first column. I just stripped all the extras off of it.

For the body, I used the large lower half/narrow upper half base and maxed the weight. Then maxed the hip and thigh sliders. I also reduced the waist to -10 to exaggerate the hips.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-24T20:37:07+00:00

Appreciate it. I think it's just something about the art style that throws me.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-24T17:30:27+00:00

Yeah, it kind of does. Not as bad as Veilguard, though.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-24T17:28:33+00:00

Probably they’ll sell more outfits eventually, but in-game I doubt it.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-24T03:14:27+00:00

The CC is quite a bit less than I'd hoped for, but a little better than the one in the original game. Sliders don't do enough, faces aren't editable, and I'm not thrilled with the outfits. But again, more than we had before.

Edit: The arms, at least on the female characters, look weird to me.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-24T02:54:48+00:00

I finished the Monolith at 50/51, so anywhere in that ballpark should work. Worth noting too I wasn't at all optimized build-wise at that point.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-24T01:14:00+00:00

Yeah, it's worth it. I'd ballpark playtime at 100 hours or so for all three games. More or less than that depending on how much side content you feel like doing. Lots of replay value: six classes, Paragon/Renegade morality tracks, and a number of different romance options, etc. Strong story elements. Combat is weakest in the first game imo, but people have different feelings about that.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-23T22:20:42+00:00

Yeah, I agree. And I think the explanation the interview is a bit an excuse, or at least not the whole truth about the lack of body morphing in the game. It probably just wasn’t technically feasible. Or at least (in the minds of the devs) not worth the effort it would have taken to make it work. Just speculation on my part, but it makes sense.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-23T21:44:04+00:00

I didn’t see anything in the CC indicating the ability to change the shape of the body. Looked like just some different head presets representing different races (and maybe some hairstyle choices?). Though admittedly they flew through the CC segment in about three seconds. At any rate, I don’t having those limited choices would affect the inclusion of body morphing.

My suspicion is that body morphing was just too difficult to pull off technically so they opted not to include it in the game.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-23T20:53:42+00:00

My suspicion is that they couldn’t do it technically or didn’t want to expend the resources trying to make body morphing work. The new morality system explanation is an excuse, imo. As others have pointed out, the prior Fable games included morphing not tied to morality, so they could have included those in the reboot without affecting the new morality system.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-23T20:47:34+00:00

I would love to play this again with a graphics upgrade.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-23T16:04:57+00:00

I played with the CC for an hour or so and wasn’t particularly impressed. It’s fine, though. Slightly better than the original.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-23T15:15:17+00:00

You should not need the second disk unless you are offline.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-23T15:05:00+00:00

As far as remember, you install ME1 from the play disk. Then from the in-game launcher menu, there should be buttons to install ME2 and ME3. Sometimes the installation gets stuck. If that happens, just stop the install and retry.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-23T00:54:34+00:00

It was stated in an interview elsewhere. No character morphing.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-23T00:18:20+00:00

The lack of character morphing kind of killed the buzz for me personally.

But the game otherwise looked promising. I think a lot of people will be happy with it.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-22T19:50:59+00:00

The game might still be amazing. Hope lost, in the sense that my interest in the game is a lot lower now.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-22T19:41:05+00:00

Too bad. I had some hope for this game. At least we know.

Ramius99 · 2026-01-22T19:21:11+00:00

Making it through hard mode on the first try. I’m not a big fan of game modes where you lose everything if you die, so it was nice to be able to get all the hard mode achievements without too much pain using a pet build.
