1)Femshep will be at the back of the Collector's Edition of ME3, where the Collector was in ME2's case. Male/Default/Sheploo will be at the front cover like before.
2)Only 13% of players use default Shepard, so why is it a big deal if 18% for femShep is catered to at all? 83% customize Shepard in some way.
And this likely (*likely*) just accounts for the first playthrough, as I know many do a separate femShep play through. I don't think its bad to cater to 1/5+ of your fans.
@jgbloyd :D Thank you! But Cocker (lol) got it all wrong! femShep will be on the back of the collector's edition which this Guy Cocker did not describe
Lovely only 20% use Femshep so lets not even have it (thats the attitude I'm geting) Fucking hell there were 2 godamn votes to decide Shep's apperance and its still not good enough?
The blonde/red hair extinction theory is a myth. A magazine reported an unconfirmed story years ago about a supposed WHO study. Fact, the WHO never carried any such study, the supposed WHO researcher who did the study doesn't exist and the media never check their sources.
While blonde/red hair is indeed caused by recessive genes, without some sort of evolutionary pressure against people with that hair colour that prevents them from breeding, blonde/red hair is here to stay.
Terrible coverage. You're an idiot if you think FemShep's getting the front. We know David Silverman isn't the greatest marketing director, but he's not THAT bad.
And it was a vote for a red head... and the default femshep has always been a redhead. Durr.
Way to pick all the negative comments out. Tons more play femshep than jsut the 80. Thsoe stats were baseless. Do your REAL research before spouting opinions as facts like a REAL journalist.
The universe never mentions that Redheads no longer exist, only that blondes never exist. Also, the theory that blondes (or redheads) would eventually no longer exist is something of an urban myth.
Femshep is confirmed to be on the back cover of the CE, and MaleShep is supposed to be on the front.
The quotes they have in this video of people 'not liking' having the femshep in marketing or on the gamebox are taken out of context, and don't seem to actually be complaining about it?
"If you have any problems or blah blah blah I have a small penis and am Guy Cocker (lol), just head over to our Facebook page!" Ooooh, he's fucking subtle! I see what he's doing there... he's trying to get us to "Like" his gay Facebook page, BY SAYING IF WE'RE ANGRY ABOUT ANYTHING, WE CAN JUST GO THERE AND "LIKE" HIS SHIT! YEAH! SO FUCKING SUBTLE! COCKER! HAHAHAH!
not happy for free games? some console drop prce too but no free games for early buyers,,, like sony ps3 for example. So what to complain about FREE games? i don't get it.
COMMANDER SHEPARD ALWAYS BEEN A MALE GUY! HE is Commander Shepard and nothing else. Mass Effect 3's box is going to tha kitchen if they seriously apply it to tha box!
@JamesBondHero Shapard is whoever you have the choice for him to be. He can be black, he can be white. He can be with Jack, or he can get into a same-sex relation with a male character in ME3. She can be female and with an asari, or female and with Kaiden. He can save the council, or hold back to preserve the human fleet. He can shoot people, or talk them down.
This is the roleplaying in Mass Effect, and whatever you say won't change that.
@JamesBondHero DefaultShep is already claimed to simply be the easy way for them to market the game - using dozens of different male and female characters for Shep in marketing would be silly. Because of fan outcry and petitioning, they have been convinced to *include* FemShep in the marketing a little.
MaleShep will still be at the front of the cover - FemShep will be at the back of the Collector's cover where the Collector was in ME2's cover.
@SwobyJ Well, in the end, in doesn't matter. What I meant is: Male Shepard was an icon, and this guy said the female one would replace the Male Shepard on the Collector's Edition. But I played as femShep in both games (ME1 and ME2) so I'll have a save for ME2 to import in ME3 with both sexes.
It was worth it to pay $250 at launch to early adopters, but not when nintendo lowers the price. If it wasn't worth $250 to begin with, they shouldn't have bought it.
@zeal851 Did you the dude in the video? Only 20% of all Mass Effect players played as a female Shepard.. So, how does that make her the popular one? o_o
@SwobyJ Out of 83% that customized their male Shepard in at least some way... Which makes it 18% of all players that choose to play as the female Shepard -- customized & not.
My point? Don't randomly add a random ginger on the cover that isn't even remotely connected to the game.. Apart from the suit.. Besides, the Male Shepard's badass.
Having all that said, they aren't exactly "replacing" the male Shepard, so idc... And wouldn't really bother too much if they did.
@sihskaiekkcm Wait, you think she is going to be on the cover, or on the front cover? Because she's not going on the front cover. Maleshep will be on the front cover, with Femshep being on the back, where the Collector was in the ME2 Collector's Edition.
@SwobyJ Yeah, I realized that after my first comment. The guy in the video was too misleading. Good thing someone cleared that up for me. Anyway, it's not a big deal... I just want to play the game.
@sihskaiekkcm except they're not replacing Sheploo, they're putting both of them on the collector's edition cover, one on each side. And dude in the video gets it wrong when he says they're putting her on the front. They haven't announced that... and she'll probably end up on the back.
well i have to admit that FemShep looks good, she's beautifull, but i wouldn't play as her, i would still play as John Shepard. the galaxy needs to be saved by a tough man, not by a sexy chick. but this is only my opinion
@therockerrobert That's fine. I'm the opposite and hope that's fine, too. I just don't get why these puberty boys are all freaked out. Us femshep fans finally get to see her take the spotlight on just 1 out of 3 titles and it's like a hatefest. So, just wanted to say thanks for not bashing and taking it in stride.
She die,d it. HAHAHA!
