The Mass Effect Project Director reveals that the dated shots of Miranda’s butt are not included in the Legendary Edition.
The Mass Effect project director has revealed that the tight shots of Miranda’s butt are not suitable for the remastered games.
Bioware released the first trailer for Mass Effect: Legendary Edition earlier this week. Remastered versions of the first three Mass Effect games. A side-by-side comparison of the old games with new ones shows how different the games will look. They will also miss a few dated shots, as revealed by the games’ project director Mac Walters.
The shots in question are close-ups of Miranda’s backside, something Walters spoke about recently during an interview with Metro. Kevin [Meek] actually exclaimed some camera cutouts that just … why was that aimed at Miranda’s butt? Walters explained, adding that those recordings did not make it into the remastered trilogy. Meek is Mass Effect’s character and environment director.
The revelation that the close-up photos of Miranda’s buttocks were actually prompted by another question. Walters was asked if he felt that characters like the Asari, a race of mono-gendered aliens, would be a bit out of place in a game 14 years after they were first introduced. Bioware has been accused of giving in to the male players of Mass Effect through the creation and recording of the Asari in the past.
“I don’t know if I’d say we were very concerned about it or anything, but there were considerations,” admitted Walters. So it looks like the Asari will go unedited, except it will of course be remastered along with the rest of the games. Mass Effect fans will be able to experience the remastered version of the trilogy when it releases on May 14, 2021.
In case you didn’t know, it was Mass Effect week here at TheGamer to celebrate the unveiling of the trilogy’s legendary edition.
