Are the rumors actually true about Miranda?
I preordered on steam and when i opened the forums up i see tons of threads saying they changed cut scenes of her azz so it doesn't show it? IS this true? That would be a shame because i really don...

@SofaJockeyUK I guess it depends how extreme the reframing is, like i seem to remember one part of the conversations with Miranda where she went over to the window and the camera saw her butt while she was walking. If they changed it to have miranda walking to the camera it would be weird, lose that effect of looking out into space while contemplating. Also I don't remember Shephard in a black dress specifically, i only played her once but I do remember that i didnt like shephard dressed up in any scene ever. It literally always looked weird seeing her out of military gear. Maybe it was because I played male shephard most of the time and his dress up gear was still functional if there was a surprise battle? or maybe the femshep character model was weird and didn't suit dresses, i really can't remember what i found so weird about it.
I do wonder if people are upset because of changes to the original game (no matter how small) affecting the game they loved or if they are upset because miranda puts the * in mass effect :O
Personally, I'm in the boat that cutscenes and story should be untouched save for being made prettier. Leave all the changes as gameplay improvements so new players can experience the game smooth as butter and be able to talk to old players about the cutscenes and story they loved. I guess if character models are updated it would impact cutscenes a bit too. I do worry a bit because I have heard of some remasters of other games where people cried about things being too sexual and so changes were made to 'remove the problem' and then it's overdone to the point of being unrealistic. I think it might have been some tomb raider game? where a female character who was super active and would have a lot of muscle had complaints of her butt being sexualised so they gave her a flat * which was incredibly weird on someone who climbs so much. I might have got the wrong franchise there :P didnt pay much attention to it, but my point is that i hope they don't go changing all the women in ME and making things weird.
Yeah this whole thing bothers me I had preordered ME Legendary Edition on steam the moment it became available but hearing about the censorship makes me really concerned (the motivation behind the changes). If the changes Bioware want to make are an all around win from every side then thats great, such as improvements on the quality, graphics or adding in additional storyline branches etc (which apparently they aren't) would be welcome from all sides. But deliberately removing/obfuscating various parts that made the game what it is because of various *cough* minority crowds without at least an option to keep it the same isn't respecting the fan base in my opinion. These changes are just un-necessary when the time and attention could have been spent on other more exciting additions to the game. The biggest worry I have is where do they draw the line?

It happens go all American games sadly.
Surprised a mod hasn't came in here and banned me and deleted the thread tbh.
But if there is a mod made that can fix the cut scene(highly unlikely) and the many other things they will probably change I may buy it.
