You need to have Holly Conrad an her friends do ads for Mass Effect 3, heck maybe even the DLC, in their costumes. It'd be awesome. Also hire them for the Mass Effect movie. Please, they already have the experience. Seriously. I know it'd get more people to buy the games, and wow even diversity shown with FemShep. :D Ok so Bioware, my friend an I came up with this ingenious plan.

Nevertheless, thanks for the daily summaries, Chris. I can't wait until some of us non-con-goers can see some gameplay footage. If I’m not mistaken, that’s Grunt–not Wrex.

]]> Comment on Thinking About Running a Tabletop Game… by Solarom http://blog.bioware.com/2010/02/19/thinking-about-running-a-tabletop-game%e2%80%a6/#comment-1746 Solarom Wed, 12 May 2010 18:25:36 +0000 http://blog.bioware.com/?p=2921#comment-1746 I wouldn't recommend UA. I love that game, and I love the mechanics, but it's veeeery unusual, and, well, fail-based, really, mostly designed for games that center around character's flaws instead of their merits IMHO. Savage Worlds is great though. There's a limit to what it can do, so if your game's really unusual and requires some creative mechanics, you might need to "glue in" blocks of new rules to the basic engine. Other than that, SW is simple, fast and fun. Nearly perfect in my opinion. I wouldn’t recommend UA.

It has its place and there are cool mangas, but imo DragonAge would deserve a very different treatment, not the "every face looks the same" one. Hire some quality French illustrators, for example, they've got some superd historic comics over there. Please, don’t turn everything into manga.
