Can someone make a Kane Shepard?

 

 

Hair shouldn't matter then...

Default male Sheperd is HAWT. <3 <3 I don't think I could play a female.

In any case the shadows on some of the female shepard hairdos are a bit screwed up.

I wouldn't limit it to that. Both my character and 2 or 3 of the first NPCs I met had bizarre angular splotches on their face that went away when I turned dynamic shadows off.

Sometimes this happens on noses as well, or the hairpiece won't cast the right shadow on the forehead. It actually breaks the graphics more than anything, I don't get why this made it into the game.

 

EDIT: On the 360 version anyways.

 

EDIT: Also, black shepard just doesn't feel right with the voice.

Black main characters never really feel right since they're always voiced by white people.

and white characters don't sound right when voiced by a black person (see Xmen Legends Magma)

ME is one of the few game I play female (and I only do that because of erm... Liara )

We should not put it as black and white as that since a lot in voices come not from the actors but how we hear the voices and what we make of them.

 

I didn't get that Joker was the guy who did Scott Evil before I looked on IMDB, now it is completely obvious.

I think I need to play first time as male Shepard. My female Shepard will want to romance Kaidan and he still needs some time to stop being Carth.

Or maybe she'll ditch that punk for some hot blue alien action.

Surprisingly, I could imagine male Shepahrd being voiced by Asian man due to the contribution of his robotic voice.

 

In the end, I would like to see a voice altering system in the next sequel where you could have some freedom in adjusting Shepard's voice by pitch. Something similar to Metal Gear Online.

I'm half-way through the game with a male Shepard, but I'm seriously considering starting over with a female char. The voice actor is ****ing atrocious.

the female voice is better, but not that better.

At least Hale is capable of expressing emotions other than "I'm tough, and you are not. Suck it down.".

Ditto. At least I feel immersed during gameplay with fewer moments of rolling my eyes during certain line deliveries.

to what could you compare the male voice? for what kind of character might it stil be working well?

It is not a matter of comparison, but rather how he delivered the lines. He certainly has a good voice, but the VA simply did not invest much emotions into the lines necessary.

 

A good example would be during the conversations with the playable NPCs in Normandy. During intimate lines in getting to know the crew, be it with Wrex or Ashley and Kaidan, Hale delivers them with a soft and quiet voice that expresses intimacy and sincerety. That itself gives the player a sense wearing the shoes of a big sister role with the crew. The Male Shepherd on the other hand speaks in a manner where I felt at times, invested in too little emotions and simply just reading from the script. Hence I coined the term 'robotic'.

 

I understand there are cheesy lines in ME, but if you speak those lines with the absence of the GARness Hale manages to capture to a degree that the male VA is unable to, the line just comes off with eye rolling moments.

Hmmm... It appears that the new SecuROM imbeds itself in the registry.

Hades, please do post this image into the official MEPC forum too!

Already have.

It really depends on what it does when it's in the registry, and how hard it really is to get rid of it - but yeah, sounds like no Mass Effect for me then.

I'm pretty sure SecuRom has been adding itself to the registry for a long time. I have a SecuRom entry, and another one underneath NWN2 in the registry.

after having played both, I personally liked my female better

 

Ditto. After hearing Jennifer Hale, Mark Meer's VO made me want to slap him awake.

Already have.

linky please, am interested in the comments on it
