What sort of societal and biological ramifications could you get from humans being forced by circumstance to adopt environment/protective armor in a similar fashion to the quarians?
Or hell, a fantasy setting works too.
>>44404177
Lots of chaffing and itching.
Social: emphasis on etiquette and respect bleeding in from the fact you need to be extremely physically careful at all times or you're dead. See The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, Dune.
>>44404190
>The Moon is a Harsh Mistress
Isn't that the novel with the SJW society that manages to be extremely creepy, perverted and misogynistic?
I remember I was quite creeped out when I first read it ten years ago.
>>44404209
It's about the lunar penal colony's struggle for Independence. Emphasis on 'moon' and 'harsh' not so much 'mistress'
There now exists an immense incentive to invent affordable, practical powered armour. If you're already stuck in a suit your life depends on, might as well add some protection and servos to it.
>>44404223
So yes, it is.
Funny how creepy can be the 'ideal' society for women as imagined by neckbeards without much real life experience. My girlfriend read it too and found it absolutely disgusting, for essentially the same reasons.
There is some good ideas though, like the computer or the WMD project.
>>44404251
IIRC there were one female to every ten males, that's the definition of inequality so yeah it isn't exactly a feminist piece. The weird society was a large part of the charm, and I'm always a sucker for a conlang.
I agree the attitudes portrayed towards women were kind of creepy and unrealistic, but social science fiction is a lot harder to write than purely speculative technological stuff.
>>44404177
The Quarians never take that shit off, right? How in the hell do they reproduce? Porn would get really weird really fast, though latex fetishists might not mind.
>>44404291
>latex fetishists
Not just latex, IMO. There are broader horizons.
>>44404291
They take the suits off, but only in completely sterilized environments so they don't suffer the same fate as 90% of Native Americans in the 17th Century.
>>44404309
>>44404291
In my mind the reason behind it is that an alien race spitefully seeded most human colonies with an engineered, extremely deadly and contagious disease which targeted only humans. Out of sheer safety, people still wear protective suits as they never know where the strains may lie dormant. Sort of like that island in the Uk where they tested anthrax during WWII and there was still anthrax in the soil 60+ years later.
>>44404332
The canon reason is perfectly reasonable. If you're stupid enough to completely sterilize your space ships and you live in them 24/7, over time you will simply NOT HAVE an immune system to speak of. Or at least one worth a damn. We're sorta experiencing this in the modern west with autoimmune disorders becoming more common as living space is more sterilized.
>>44404291
Self-sterilizing ports to allow sperm and eggs to be extracted from two suits and inserted into an artificial uterus built into a third suit. The child is conceived and born inside the suit, and will remain there for their entire life.
>>44404177
Protective sealing armor in case of hull breaches seem like a good idea.
>>44404368
A simple campaign of controlled inoculation can prevent that. Start small, force one or two innocuous inoculation on your children per year, in a controlled environment. Voila, no problem any more.
>>44404332
This is actually a good reason.
>>44404177
While I like the backstory, the fact that her suits were so skintight probably means it was just someone's magical realm.
>>44404177
They should never have revealed what quarians looked like. Left it a mystery
None, because the Quarians are an unrealistic, and frankly, stupidly contrived science fantasy race.
>>44405860
There was no reason for it to be a mistery. There is space internet. Damn it, there are asaris who were alive when quarians were not space gyppos.
Anyway, the only source of how they were was a shitty shopped stock photo.
>>44405913
You can't trust an asari. Stupid blue space elves.
>>44404177
Fantasy settings
Magical, or actual poison miasmas blanket much of an area that either needs to be passed through or has material worth inside enough to warrent the risk
Picture hundreds of plague doctor masks, men and women wearing heavy coats of stitched together leather that is sewn shut with them inside to ensure a tighter seal. Safest placest to be unsealed would be great saunas, the heat and steam pushing back the miasma.
So i guess its fantasy Finland

Dunno m8. I've read Farnham's Freehold, and it was all about how racism is bad. Then I've read the Moon is a Harsh Mistress, and it was all about how sexism is bad. Two to two - I can only talk about things as I perceive. Maybe Heinlein was a great man, what does I know?
For information: In the Moon is a Harsh Mistress, the lunar society had a male to female imbalance for a long time. As every male is a rapist hiding in plain cloth, the lunar society evolved to venerate and protect its female element. Every female is culturally revered by the lunar society, and even looking at them funny can make you go to jail.
It doesn't mean that they act more, or are expected to be grown up and to assume the consequence of their own choices. In fact, it's the exact opposite: they are treated like overgrown children/emperors. The main characters and driving forces of the plot are still males. But the female MC is useful to 'calm those pesky males' and is used to verbally berate members of the parliament.
Heinlein thought of creating a society without sexism. Instead, he created a society that objectify women like ever and is incredibly misanthropist and misogynistic, to the point of being literally creepy.
>>44405860
But the reason given is so good! A multiple system empire hurled from their homes by their slave race bots, too large were the survivors to inhabit any one planet, most others already claimed by other spacefarring races forcing them to remain in the many ships they fled in.
>Blue humans from shutterstock
It'd make human society get majorly fucked up since we thrive on body language and facial contact.
>>44404177
Aka The Subterrene War?
Permanent intestinal damage from the numbing drugs and catheters of your suit. A stink inside from the unwashed body, or the shit, moss, and fungus smeared everywhere outside when people get tired of hooking up to sewer lines and simply dump their waste-recycling packs on the floor. Constant low-level pain from the tension of living in a hard-edged compression sack. Never being able to itch. Going unshaven for months.
Imagine WW1 trench warfare, except in the future, you don't go to the trenches, they come to you. So you can never get away. You can tell veterans of the contaminated zones who have returned to civilian life by the way they run to the toilets six times a day, the special diets and pills they take to keep blood out of their shit and the way their eyes can't focus past three inches out where their suit screen used to be.

>>44404279
I'm getting the feeling that you're pretty young.
First, Heinlein wasn't a feminist in the modern sense, but he was a very early adopter of the idea of gender equality (which even modern feminists still claim to embrace). His view was always that men and women have different talents but absolutely should be equal in a political and social sense. His wife Ginny was a brilliant engineer and famously strong personality.
Second, he's writing about the sexual revolution before it happened.
Third, gender and sexual mores change radically all the time. Stuff that looks "funny and creepy" becomes normal and expected really damn fast, and vice versa.
The jokes about cheesy pickup lines and leisure suits in the 70's came from a real post-college baby boomer culture. Porn was sophisticated and worldly. In the 80's, feminists tried to get porn banned. One night stands were common but people were no longer open about them, because it had become a little shameful. Sleeping with someone from work was perfectly normal and natural.
Then the 90's hit, and the web. Suddenly the firehose of porn started. But just in time, feminism had changed again. Now, if you didn't sleep around then you weren't being "sex positive". Girls in particular were under pressure to experiment with each other, lest they be accused of being homophobes. In fact, activists encouraged girls to do porn because it was so transgressive and liberating. But never, ever sleep with someone at work. Because that's just wrong; you could get fired just for telling a dirty joke.
In the 2000's, things flipped back. Now, sex was exploitation again. I think revenge porn was part of that, along with what was happening with celebs, but sex with coworkers was natural and don't be so uptight.
If you in the 2010's were dropped into any of those decades, you'd find the people there funny and weird. If someone had written about the 2010's in the 90's, we'd had laughed at how unrealistic it was.
>>44406195
Sounds like a spot-on prediction of third wave feminism.
>>44406842
>I'm getting the feeling that you're pretty young.
And I'm getting the feeling you're pretty pedant. Let's manage to not get ahead of ourselves.
>First, Heinlein wasn't a feminist in the modern sense, but he was a very early adopter of the idea of gender equality (which even modern feminists still claim to embrace). His view was always that men and women have different talents but absolutely should be equal in a political and social sense.
Possible. I'm not trying to fit Heinlein into an a box a priori. Boxes are difficult little things. Surely Heinlein can believe himself to be an equalist, and still profess sexist, misanthropic, misogynistic, or even racist beliefs. What he wrote is infinitely more telling about himself than what he openly professed to be. Adjectives are not important: 300 pages novels are.
>Second, he's writing about the sexual revolution before it happened.
No, he isn't. Sexual revolution has nothing to do with putting women on a pedestal, objectifying them to the place of overgrown children whose needs, and wishes, are more important than anything. That is the 'ideal' society presented in The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress. It reeks of neckbeardism because it is exactly what neckbeards, having no interactions with women, and putting them on a pedestal to the point of unhealthiness, believe would be the ideal 'sexism free' society.
>Third, gender and sexual mores change radically all the time. Stuff that looks "funny and creepy" becomes normal and expected really damn fast, and vice versa. [...](a detailed history of... pornography?)
And then, what? You seem to try to make a point, but this point is very murky at best. What? The sexist society presented in his book is okay because it was tolerated sexism when it was written? Because it was against the tolerated sexism of when it was created, so that makes it a good sexism? Are we really trying to argue about good or bad misogyny?
>>44404368
more like blasting antibiotics in everything gives rise to mutated bacteria that doesn't give a shit about your medicine.
>>44407159
Fair warning, not the same guy you were replying to.
>Are we really trying to argue about good or bad misogyny?
In terms of historical context, sure. The attempt to remove misogyny from society relies on the notion that there is misogyny in said society, which relies on there being evidence of that and of the changing worldviews surrounding it. In this case, Heinlein's works are important, as they help provide evidence of both the existence of misogyny in his time period and of the changing views on misogyny that he was a part of. Sure, his views seem creepy now, but in context, he was at the forefront of the wave within society that pushed society away from sexism. Without context, we have nothing to compare to.
>>44407159
>>44406842
Heinlein was a sci-fi writer who wrote a lot of books about a lot of things. You're better off examining the book and its content alone, since Heinlein is comparable to a tabletop player who plays wildly different PCs every time.

This. Which is a trouble when most people expressing their learned opinion of the author have generally only read one or two of his books.

Speculative science fiction has always explored unusual social arrangements and continues to do so to this day. But as always it comes from the times and conditions in which it was written.
Judging things as black and white using your enlightened modern mores betrays a lack of perspective.
>>44404291
Wasn't there a conversation you could eavesdrop on in 3 about this? The female talked about stimulating attachments and such.
I feel like movies and tv would decrease in popularity some. It's hard to emote under a mask. Audio entertainment and games would become marginally more popular as a result.
Racism would be a lot less prevalent because you couldn't tell a person's race by looking at them. But that'd be replaced by a class system for who can afford the best armor. So it's a lateral change.
Biologically, we'd have to develop something besides sweat because sweating in an enclosed environment is just going to be uncomfortable and not help anything. Also we'd be a lot more fertile because we'd probably have sex less.

A lot customs that the quarians have can easily be translated to a human society. Like the one where taking your mask off in front of someone else is one of the ultimate acts of intimacy, because you're comfortable with possibly spending your last moments with the person
>>44404177
Is this just another shitty "bodysuit fetish wat do" thread? Because I think this kinda stuff has potential to be legitimately interesting but /tg/ can't keep it in their pants long enough to have a fun discussion.
Anyways, as for a fantasy version, you've got the Yukes from Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles and these dudes called magic elementals from Heroes of Might and Magic. Both were essentially pure magical energy condensed into sapience and ensconced in either plate or robes to give them form.
Come to think of it, FF9 Black Mages fit the bill as well.
>>44404462
>A simple campaign of controlled inoculation can prevent that.
Probably not, because in canon along with what >>44404368 said, it was stated that the Quarians evolved on a planet where harmful pathogens were a lot less common than symbiotic ones, so they always had weak immune systems more geared towards aiding symbiotic organisms than preventing harmful illnesses. So they may not even be capable of producing antibodies the same way a human would making inoculation useless.
>>44408184
>Both were essentially pure magical energy condensed into sapience and ensconced in either plate or robes to give them form.
Not exactly the same thing though, as those aren't human or even humanoid.
>>44407159
Seeing as how you couldn't understand my point with a brief history of sexual mores, here you go: The difference between what's considered "creepy" and what's accepted can be very, very short.
You're viewing history as a story of evil stupid jerks who blundered around being racist and sexist until one day they woke up to the perfect moral system, which happens to be the one that was around when you came of age.
The truth is, A) people can have different perspectives on race and sex from you without being racist and sexist. B) perspectives on all this stuff change rapidly over time. Once you've lived through a few of these changes, you stop being so assholish about the details.
In the 70's and 80's, gay rights supporters insisted that homosexuality is a lifestyle choice while opponents said it was a mental illness. Then they switched. Now it's that being gay is genetic, while anti-gay groups insist it's a lifestyle choice. Now, we can argue about which origin story is true, but the truth is that where you think homosexuality comes from has nothing to do with whether you think they should have rights.
Should coworkers be allowed to date? In the 80's, sure. In the 2000's, sure. In the 90s? Terrible, evil, wrong!
Your problem is that you have no perspective on this stuff. It's possible to be pro-equality without subscribing to your dogmatic, arid, paranoid version of feminism. A few years from now, we'll all be looking back at this period and shaking out heads saying "damn those were stupid crazy ideas" and you'll be doing it, too. But remember, you were part of it.
>>44407981

He wrote a whole bunch of different shit, which is why I always find it hilarious when someone reads one or two of his and says "He is totally writing down his exact opinions and describes them through his books."

>>44404177
Well, let's assume that virtual reality isn't a thing? Because then we'd all see idealized versions of each other when we meet online.
I suppose there'd be a lot of dry humping, which the two bodysuit pic threads already covered.
Socially, clothing has always been important. I think you'd see the rise of sumptuary laws: rules about which social classes can wear which kinds of environmental suits.
In this kind of setting, >>44404309, I'd have people live in big italian-style multi-generational manor houses with a park/spa inside. Plus leaders would build parks and baths that were environmentally sealed. In those places, you'd find nudity or close to it as people enjoy the few times when they're able to take their suits off.
>>44409263
The Quarians do have Clean Rooms on their ships. Most obvious use for them is children.
>>44409304
So Quarians pretty much just have environmental needs that are different than the other races? I haven't played ME in a while.
>>44409204
Especially when the society of The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress is explicitly an exploration of what would happen to social conventions under extreme conditions.
>>44409332
Yes sort of.
Their most vital need is an insanely clean environment. It would be insanely difficult to sterilize and keep sterile all of their ships all the time so they have to keep wearing the suits even in their ships.
Also they have some weird symbiotic immune system that works in harmony with their native environment or some shit. Worked perfectly on their old homeworld. Took decades/centuries to adapt to their colony worlds and even then wasn't transferable between colonies.
Everything went to shit when they became ship bound and now they are all slightly allergic even to each other. They can't share clean rooms without a lot of preparation.
Syncing up suit environments is a time consuming task that two married Quarians do so they can fuck. During the months long syncing process both are ill.
Or thats from what I remember. I could be wrong.
>>44407814
>I feel like movies and tv would decrease in popularity some. It's hard to emote under a mask.

Most precious locations would be the "clean rooms", that have airlocks and decontamination, wherein lie the only places where humans can live outside their suits. These places would all be neutral grounds by custom, as any violence nearby or therein risks damaging the expensive systems and dooming all those that are inside.
>WAAAH HEINLEIN'S A SJW

You can clearly see Tali's nose in all three games when up close at certain angles, and it's very humanlike; in fact overall she looks pretty human based on what's visible.

It'd probably carry on more or less as before but with 'clean rooms' becoming a massive cultural and social thing.
>>44409421
>>44409332
For the most part, yeah.
Quarians are symbiotic organisms, that's just how their immune system works.
On one hand, it's fucking fantastic because on a planet or where they've become attuned to, they can pretty much never get sick from anything short of cancer and other mutagenic diseases while also being better off somewhat because their biology would be enhanced by the bacteria and other shit, or at least be ignored which is kind of how it worked, where with humans, our immune system fought shit off, for them with there being such a serious lack of microorganisms, bugs n shit, they sort of just evolved to use it or make their bodies invisible to it.
On the other, it's hard for their bodies to adapt and after being forced to live in suits their whole lives, their ability to attune weakened, so many are forced to stay perpetually sick in order to rebuild that strength.
They wear suits on their ships because there is only one method of completely eliminating any microscopic life and that's with lasers. Problem with this is that their ships are massive and it takes bringing in scrap or salvage to completely fuck up everything, which they're entirely reliant upon.
Dicking humans, each other and other species is such a problem because every quarian has their own collection of microbes and shit that their body uses, with other species, its the same, like with humans there's like 10000 different microbes in the human body.
So if they were to adapt to their ships, which some do, it not only becomes incredibly tasking on the body but you then multiply it by how many other quarian on the ship and then multiply it anywhere from 100 to 5000, you then get the effort needed to become normalized to that single ship in that single moment.

It's because of Mass Effect and hot alien ass that I am pursing an engineering degree for the slight statistical possibility that there is a possibility that
A. There is an alien species that is intelligent out there in the cosmos
B. There is a possibility that in the future, we will be able to engineer new forms of life
or C. When humanity finally finishes prototyping the technology to transfer memories (already proven) and ergo, knowledge, with human testing, we'll be able to create a network where humanity will be able to grow exponentially more intelligent as more people learn, as every new bit of knowledge will be shared to everybody else, kind of sort of like the Geth network only human; and because of this A and/or B will be achieved. Hopefully eventually a D where transdimensional travel will be achieved.
I will dedicate my entire life if but for the vague possibility of dicking an alien.

>Quarians are symbiotic organisms, that's just how their immune system works.>Read a vore story involving Tali and a shrunken guy the other day
>Talk about Quarian's bodies try to form symbiosises with foreign organisms is making me think about it ending with her absorbing him anglerfish style instead of in digestion
Fuck, what has this place done to me?
On an actually related note, it just hit me that Quarian is a play on quarantine and I feel stupid about that
>>44433994
>Quarian is a play on quarantine
I honestly don't know how I should feel about this
>>44404177
A very weak immune system. Very weak offspring. Your own native environment would become eventually lethal to your species. The race would be doomed.

You weirdo.>not wanting the guy to turn Tali into a biological biosuit he can wear and control instead
>>44434125
I know, in retrospect is seems obvious and almost comical but fuck, why did it take me this long to realize it?
>>44434210>>not wanting the guy to turn Tali into a biological biosuit he can wear and control instead
Well one, turning something that assimilated you into a biosuit doesn't really follow, and two
>Not wanting the guy to become a part of dem Quarian hips and dat magnificent ass, making them both just a bit thicker and wired into her in such a way that when she uses the stimulation attachment his whole body is treated like an erogenous zone
You weirdo

Turians come from Centurions as far as I know

...fuck. Never noticed.
Asari is an Egyptian God, another way of writing Osiris.
Rachni are Arachnids.
Salarians are Salamanders. The animal, not the myth.
Batarians are barbarians.

You aren't true xenophile. Go back to your normie life and fuck your female human wife.

I believe I have seen original 3d model from the game somewhere. It's pretty low-poly, but yeah, mostly human-like in appearance.
>>44442040
>You aren't true xenophile. Go back to your normie life and fuck your female human wife.
Not him, but I like them to have a female/hourglass silhouette at least, does that disqualify me? It's not a requirement, just a preference
>>44404177
Something something sumptuary laws
Something something highest level of intimacy is letting them see your face
Something something latex fetish
>>44443447

So, not much else to talk about then?
