But for those of you that are still confused by bras - don't bother fucking around with both ends trying to get them apart. You can unclasp a bra with one hand by pinching. Take the general clasp area between thumb and forefinger, and pinch.
Problem solved. #dragonageorigins

If it has one or two hooks you can get by with pinching. And once you master the pinch, you can drive-by-pinch at crowded parties and not get caught. #dragonageorigins

This is what she looks like in-game: [farm4.static.flickr.com]
That means that to have sex, *she PUT ON* underwear.

Screw the mass media.
Give the customers what they want. If your making sales. And people are buying it. Isn't profit, isn't your customer, more important than what CNN, CNBC, Fox News, .. and all the others.. have to say? #dragonageorigins

@Morne: Well if it fits, or if it adds to the game.
Like Leon in R4.. Common, he went through hell to save that lady. I think him getting a physical reward from her would have fit.
If it doesn't fit, don't add it. I guess what I care about, is that the option for adult content, exist.. without everyone acting like its some sort of horrible sin.
@xfelixmorganx: @iJustice:
Thanks.
@MissAshley42: True. #dragonageorigins

Look at video games themselves... you can sever heads, cut off limbs, fill a room with blood and get an 'M' rating, and news and the media won't really touch it. Throw in some barely recognizable naugty-bits (Mass Effect) and we have an uproar.
Like, really? #dragonageorigins

I couldn't agree with you more. There have been studies linking excessive sexual content to more aggressive behaviour, but then again there are 'studies' that do the same for vidgame violence. I'd much rather have raunchy, dirty sex than try to rip the heart out of someone. But that's just MHO.
In another quick note, a prominant teacher recently got fired for showing his senior english class an article about homosexuality in animals. Whether you're against homosexuality or not... it's f'ing animals fercrissakes! #dragonageorigins

Seriously WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH SOME AMERICANS?
IT'S JUST BREASTS AND BUTTOCKS, YOU PORKERS EAT IT ALL THE TIME AT KFC.
How can a culture that worships guns, that has no qualms of showing dead people, THAT FOLLOWS CAR CHASES LIVE THAT CAN FUCKING KILL PEOPLE, goes all bat-shit insane when a titty shows up!
For crying out loud it's by tabooing sex that you create a nation of puritanistic PC fuckers who go around doing heinous shit in private.
Honestly does anyone really believe that "Private addictions, public virtues" is anything but the most cinic bullshit on the face of the earth?
I was in the states when Janets' breast popped up live, and by god the media made it look like she fucked a goat in the ass with a dildo.
I mean come on, relax, you stupid motherfuckers.
On a side note, Those could be crotchless panties. #dragonageorigins

There is no law saying they can't make games as racy as they want. The blame falls solely on Bioware, for being willing to compromise on their own vision, if anyone.
In short, piss off. #dragonageorigins

@NachoDudeX: @Selfear: Get your feet of the table: @anduin1: @Unexcited Squirrel: I am not saying I disagree with his general message. But the way he says it, being insulting and swearing for no useful reason is why I pegged him as a retard. He can make his point without being insulting to the culture in the US and the people, and he can do it without coming off as an elitist, rude asshole on some moral high horse. And for the record, I'm not American, I'm Canadian. But that doesn't matter. Anyone who comes across the way he did should be told off, regardless of who or what he is talking about.
@Moleculor: I never said it wasn't, but he doesn't have to act like a complete prejudice cock while trying to give an opinion.
@mind in rewind: I don't hate boobs. I just think they have a place, and that it is not in video games. I am rather uninterested in seeing polygon breasts. I just don't see the point of it. #dragonageorigins

But this was perfectly fine. I missed out on the live-chat the bioware people had, and wanted to ask about what has been changed or toned down on the console-versions. So this gets a lot of nods from me, at least. #dragonageorigins

...I don't know. Seems that Hollywood feels it's perfectly fine to show sex on film - as long as the camera misses the action. What I meant was that it's perfectly possible to depict sex in full figure without this being very "adult". Like someone else said, you can focus on a sensual kiss, an embrace, a hand traveling down someone's back, and so on. And show people actually having sex.
...instead of simply people fucking, just outside the camera. #dragonageorigins

It's the same with violence and swearing that is now ripe in gaming. Hell, you could even say that its like any game or story mechanic.
If it was planned to be in the game, then it should be in the game. Even if its a late addition they chose it to be in. So again, its part of the game.
Why get ate up over nudity, its not like other medias shy away from it. #dragonageorigins
