Poll of the Day > A small rant about Mass Effect Andromeda. *possible spoilers*

(+) Yeah! (+)

This game was so obviously under heavy influence of SJW's and super PC liberal leftist trash.

Why do I say this? Couple things.

- Almost every single leader is female. Even the fucking Krogan leader. Their culture is innately patriarchal. It's just the way it is and should be.
It's not bad to have female leaders. But it's very clearly a statement in itself when they have minority male leaders when at the very least it could be equal.

All i got atm but its pretty glaring with just that

Not sure if shitposting...

Not sure where you're driving at but I do not agree lol

Judging by Mass Effect 3 and Eve, Krogan women are highly revered, so, no.

I agree there does seem to be a lot of pandering with the character designs. I can't help but be amused by the fact that Bioware decided to casually introduce a trans character and it pissed off the SJW community because of course it did.

I'm ok with a female Krogan leader but that voice actor was such a terrible choice, did not fit at all. Honestly most of voice acting stinks so far, it is very flat. The only characters that have decent VO work are Alec Ryder and Natalie Dormer's Asari character.

Revered yes. As mating tools and advisors. Leaders? No.

My friend hates the female krogan voices but they dont bother me at all.

But yeah. It always makes me so happy when SJWs ear each other because there will always be something that offends them. They just need to not fucking pander. It's frustrating.

Ive no problem with the voice acting. Just the two billion bugs.

They're ugly. But Turians are ugly lol. I'm just glad they're distinctly different. Female salarians look just like males.

the krogan woman on the nexus is literally just an advisor to tan that happens to run a few things, too.

besides, the nexus isn't a krogan-run thing, anyways. so why does it matter what role she has?

You're not that far in are you? I'm not talking about Kesh. She's fine.

Try that elsewhere bub. As a gay black guy, I'm the least likely to be a misogynist than anyone.

It. Was. Excessive.

They're made almost every leader a female to make some stupid fucking statement when the statement should have been ACTUAL EQUALITY.

It's a really awful game tbh. I only keep it for the mp even though it needs a lot of work

Use the shotgun. Dhan. It's overpowered. Only gun worth a damn aside from sniper rifles.

Anyway there's a Female Krogan named Morda who runs New Tuchanka. The new Krogan colony in Heleus. The male krogran are literally afraid of her.

Sorry, but being gay and black doesn't change shit.

In fact that's almost as pitiful as when someone says "I don't hate X; I have X for friends!"

Based on what? In ME3 they made it look like the women pretty much ran the shit. They formed the female tribe and seemed to run most of the shit while the men just killed each other.

Meh. There was never an actual female leader in ME3. Anyhow, it's not just specifically the Krogan leader. Almost every single leader is a female. I think i only need one hand to count.

Tann, Kandros, Archon, Alec Ryder, Male Ryder if you choose male but I dont count him, and I think that's it. The rest are female. That in itself is a political statement.

No what was a political statement is the chick in podromos who just randomly goes "I used to be a dude" when talking to them.

I feel like you've got a massive persecution complex because they aren't all male, considering you left off some male leaders.

I'm playing as engineer and having a lot of fun

I have a neat turret, can shoot cryo beams, and suck shields off of things and onto me. I also made a laser rifle that doesn't use ammo like in ME1

Unnecessary for hainley to mention her transgenderism, yes.

My point is, there's a disproportionate amount. Not to mention Manaveer Heir is a huge SJW himself.

Eve pretty much stepped up rallied the Krogan together, I'd say that's a pretty big deal.

Honestly, since we didn't even SEE a female Turian or Kroan until ME3 (and for the Turians, it was in a DLC) that the developers were trying to incorporate them more in Andromeda because it was a slightly new toy to play with.

I think the Turians were particularly weird because IIRC there wasn't even a handwavey explanation thrown in for their absence like the Salarians and Krogans got, they just...weren't there even though they were supposedly as common as any other Turian. Or maybe an explanation got thrown out and I missed it.

I thought it was weird that we barely saw female aliens, yeah. But at the same time overcompensating by making all the females leaders is glaringly obvious.

In Eve's case, she was the Krogan's savior and only hope for the future, so of course she's revered. Her position was advisory at best tbh.

Plenty of video games have male dominant casts, and I don't see you people complaining about those games.

We're not talking about those. To go from one extreme to the next is obvious and the political undertones is succ.

Like I said, I wouldn't have any problem if it were equal.
