Check Out the Dragon Age Hotties in Maxim: UPDATED

...I love how people are blaming BioWare for Maxim doing a cover on the "hotties" in their game.
Also, a small note, in the case of a rogue or a mage of either gender, they're more likely to be slender then bulky. Lean muscle tends to form more when you're being built for speed rather then power, and mages just aren't the physical type.

I wish RPGs had romance on the same level as The Legend of Zelda series. Which is to say almost none whatsoever, but you still get to save the princess. Or even Half-Life 2, implied and everything, but still meaningfully to the game.

Bioware advertising? You mean EA right? I'm not sure to what extent Bioware has control over the marketing of their games.HK_01 said:
But I do agree. Whoever is doing the marketing for this game is doing a terrible job. (Marilyn Manson? Really? I guess it's not too bad if you cut out the parts where he sings.) I'm still looking forward to the game, however.
The way the gaming industry is evolving is almost enough to make me cry. That is; however, if it hadn't already killed the part that cared long ago.
Whether BioWare/EA initiated or merely sanctioned this article, they will have had a hand in it. My faith, therefore, takes a hit that a company that I believed to able to market itself as one of the last bastions of unique (although this verb may need to be removed soon) story telling is now happy for this to occur.
Call me a prude (of which I certainly am not), but you have to accept my point: A market is on the decline when it's entire marketing structure is leaning towards only catering to our most primal of thought patterns.
A market, that instead of trying to apply to the more sophisticated of its installed base, seeks to demean them. A market that is perpuating it's own suicide.
I may be jumping the gun, and turning into an apocolypse predicter here, but looking how things have turned I can't see it as sustainable. I refuse to believe the human race is becoming more stupid as a whole, but I can certainly see why one would.
Don't judge this game on its substance, judge it on its appearance. Judge the girl not on her credentials but on her fuckability. We all know the attitude of the girl who knows she is lusted after by all; so, so shallow.
Our games will soon become this way. But maybe the world will be happy after all; it's come to rise because there's a demand, hasn't it?

honestly i think less of people who do sudoku. Sudoku is like the reality TV of abstract logic puzzles. Give me a Nurikabe or a Heyawake any day.Amnestic said:
now now, her new kitten is apparently very sick and she seems awfully broken up over that.Amnestic said:
There are free Sudokus in the back of the metro, they're a good way to pass the time on a bus/tram journey first thing in the morning, but that's about it.cobra_ky said:
I'd be broken up if my kitten was sick as well, but I wouldn't be tweeting it as I'd be too busy doting on the little thing.
There was a thread recently with people mislabelling Rule #34 as Rule #32. I dunno where people got the idea that #34=#32 from.The_root_of_all_evil said:
sudoku is a last resort for me. i read the horoscopes and "this day in history" before i even look at the sudoku. i always feel a little dirty about it afterward, too.Amnestic said:
yeah, you're right, i was just defending her because she's astoundingly hot. ¯\('_')/¯Amnestic said:
I think the concept art for Morrigan looks BETTER then both the in game skins and the person they are based off.
She originally looked like a curious and powerful yet young mage with an attractive face.
Then she ends up looking like a 40 year old with a manjaw, and the purple makeup that doesn't look much like it, just like she needs sleep.
But I guess it is all good as I'm in it for the story, discovering which girl I'll like more is just the extra part.
...Plus these pics don't even show some skin and there tiny. Not good Maxim, not good at all.
