BioWare tossed up three images of Mass Effect‘s Liara in Kotobukiya Bushoujo statue form. Unpainted, unfinished, but they want feedback. So check out the three images and then complain here, or go provide it at the game’s official Facebook page.
No word when this will go on sale, only that a preorder announcement is expected “soon.”
Racks too big, legs too long, and face barely looks like her. Back to the drawing board guys, and pull your pants up while you remake the next iteration.
yeah…..i dont think i like this whole “give us your feedback and we will go through changing our characters looks based on what randoms on the net are saying” thing that bioware have got going at the moment, liara was fine as she was, your the guys making the game, just make the decision and stop trying to please 30 different parties, because in the end your just going to annoy more people than not
I have a question though. why are they asking us what we think after 2 games already? Is it because she went and got her boobs done.. what are they now DDDDD?
Note for everyone commenting on her design, the bishoujo line of figures from kotobukiya are designed by shunya yamashita so all carry his signature look. So it has nothing to do with how bioware designed her but how kotobukiya sculpt her.
Asides Kotobukiya’s bishoujo’s line suffer from crappy QA and are pretty different from their concepts.
Bioware, learn to do breasts. Actually you need to a whole course in anatomy.
The worlds you create are vivid and believable but the immersion is broken by the fact that they are populated people with ridiculous bodies. Even elderly women in your games have a figure that’d make a Barbie doll jealous.
Guys… this isn’t Bioware’s design for Liara in the game. It’s an overly sexualised Bishoujo statue designed by Kotobukiya, based off of Liara’s models from the game. See their Marvel Heroines series for other examples.
Bioware are seeking feedback on the statue design. This is not how she will appear in the game.
Not only is this way too brazen and over the top, but I’m getting really over Bioware’s obsession with using Facebook as a way to shape the game. I used to be interested in Mass Effect 3, but now I know the whole game will be overly sexualised and catering to the lowest common denominator (ie Facebook) I’m really not interested anymore.
Why does everyone keep ignoring the comments saying that this isn’t a bioware thing and doesn’t have any impact on the game design. It’s a third party item that bioware are pimping, but it’s not bioware.

Sunday, September 4, 2011 at 2:31 PMBlame futuristic space-cosmetics! They inject nano-bots at birth that keep you firm and well rounded till the day you die.
Interesting side point – since their introduction the question of open/closed casket funerals has become a hotly debated topic.
scruffy
Sunday, September 4, 2011 at 8:40 PMWell, with breasts that big, i think Liara would probably need an open casket….

Monday, September 5, 2011 at 2:22 PMThe rack is PERFECT. Everything else is very anime styled, which is typical considering who did it and why they did it.
Also seriously… BOOBS. I love them, whats your guys problem?

Wednesday, September 7, 2011 at 12:36 PMThe bust is too Large and her head sculpt looks nothing like Liara. My shepard cheated on Liara with Tali on ME2 I’ve always felt bad about that.
