If the aliens each speak their own languages, and your omnitool is just translating it for you in real-time, why are the aliens' mouths moving in perfect sync with the English words they're not speaking?
>>

omnitool alters your vision so it would appear that alien mouths move in perfect sync

there you have it.

You seem unable to let some things go.


Let go.

because learning each other's languages is apparently too hard for these people.
>>
>>342591949
Because it'd be annoying to the player if they weren't.

>>342592134
You assume all the species are even capable of producing the sounds required for that. Turian's don't have lips, it seems doubtful they'd be able to make all the noises of the english language.

Why has no one tried to see what Asari really look like?
>>
>>342592331

The whole "Asari show what the person wants to see" thing was scrapped.
>>
>>342592253
cut off a guy's lips you can still make out what he is saying. it'd be no more offensive to the language than conflicting accents.
>>
>>342592386
>scrapped

considering it was only referenced once in that bar scene and that was still questionable hardly means it was an idea that was actually being explored.

that scene was supposed to be pure comedy, 3 drunk guys just trying to convince themselves that the hot chick should like them.

The idea that they shift their appearance to the person is retarded for one huge reason: photographs.
>>
>>342592386
It was never scrapped, it just wasn't true. Each race finds Asari appealing because something about them reminds them of their own race. But for each, it's different things.

There's no seduction mind control going on. They appear the same to everyone.

because mass effect takes after space operas where scientific realism takes the backseat in favor of fantasy in spaaaace or politics in spaaace
>>
>>342591949

Because fuck you, and people would almost certainly bitch about how bad the lio synching was regardless of whether or not there was a lore reason for it or not

Hanar communicate by bioluminescence and have no sound capability at all.

How come cutscene Krogans die in one shot?
>>
>>342591949
It also localises some idioms but not others. Weird

in which cutscene did that happen?

>Mass Effect can alter the object's mass.
>You can make the mass of anything zero.

Okay, how does that make FTL possible again?
Because the entire premise of light speed is the speed at which mass-less objects travel.

i think it was about ships having negative mass
