Can You Mod The Butt Shots Back Into The Game?

[Sawt0othGrin]

Title. I don't really know much about modding and I don't know if this is possible or if it has been done yet. Thanks in advance.

Update: There is now a "butt shot" mod listed on Nexus. Thank you to everybody who provided useful input that wasn't attacking somebody over an opinion.

"Miranda's butt has been restored for ME2 and ME3 Legendary Edition.

Contains download for both LE2 and LE3

Now you can enjoy the sight of this woman's backside as she talks about extremely sad and serious things, just like you used to."

Why does this exist

why do guys love staring at Miranda's ass, you realise she's in a compression catsuit which means when she steps out of it her booty probably sags like a mf

There's a reason why she only takes off the upper bit during her sex scene

I can't say I ever put that much thought into it. I'm a simple man. I see Miranda's butt and everything is a little better

After playing it i really don't see what the issue is, the camera still focuses on her arse in plenty of other scenes.

Why the f*** is everyone so caught up on the fact that in ONE scene, the camera was moved slightly further up Miranda's lower back because it just DID NOT MAKE SENSE to have it focus on her butt? Honestly, if you're old enough to remember playing the game the first time around, you're old enough that you don't need to get off on a video game character's backside.

That wasn't why they moved it. They made it pretty clear that this was about being social justice warriors. No one would have cared if they didn't come out with the interviews crying over it and talking about how they hate the Asari because liberals hate women now.

If they just moved the camera, I'm doubting most would have even noticed.

It doesn't matter if you like the threads. The company made sure that this topic was going to get trolled for the life of this game now. You can't set yourself up like that lol.

"About being social justice warriors"

So why are all the other shots of Miranda's ass bar two short scenes in two seperate games still in it, or any other cutscene that 'objectifies' women lmao. The straights are so bothered, talking about how triggered social justice warlocks are but can't put 2 and 2 together.

"Its all pandering nonsense."

Each and every game is made to pander to people. Adding more people to the list of people you're already pandering to is the very nature of marketing.

All games are made to pander to people. Making them pander to more people isn't a new invention.

Then why did they say they did it for those reasons? Why do you need to make excuses for it lol? You clearly see what a joke they are.

What is an excuse? Lmao? They said they removed it to fit the context of the scene, not because the social justice wizards bullied them into doing it. In the actual interview, they said that they didn't really get affected by the fact that times are different now.

Again, let me invite you to think. If you were actually trying to not objectify Miranda, you wouldn't just remove one shot per game of her ass. Because there are plenty of instances where Miranda's ass is in the middle of the screen.

I haven't heard this much crying since dentist day at kindergarten.

It's going to be trolled forever because you all are a bunch of whiners.

If you really like big asses, you can also go full out and do this. (I am sure this is what you want the most)

Look how fit it is!

I am aware of the photo mode now and I've given BW props on including it, for obvious reasons. This doesn't address the possibility of a restoration mod for the damaged cutscenes however.

I was hoping that somebody from the mod community might see this and chime in "yeah, that really shouldn't be difficult" or "no, that won't be possible because" so that those of us interested can make an informed buying decision.

I am now aware there is a camera mode, and I applaud the feature(more games should have it!) but that doesn't address the concern of the cutscene. Or possible sexy/nude mods.

I remember playing it for the first time about 8 years ago, and the scenes... Err stay in your mind. Don't like that they did it, this pandering to the 0.2% of people who don't appreciate mirandas bum is very sad.

That being said there is a galaxy to explore and save, with hugely better graphics so we'll have to distract ourselves with that.

And it's not sad that people are willing to not buy a whole trilogy just because of a butt? And are actually trying to take some moral high ground over it when all they want is pixel ass? That's not sad?

Or you are just a 12 year old and can't get a simple point. No one cares about the butt. People care about the companies coming out crying about how terrible a butt is.

That's not why most don't buy the trilogy though. Most don't buy it because they already have it and this isn't an upgrade.

You are getting upset over this. Is that not sad?

[Stumpy]

i have said it before and i will say it again. Will all you Commander "thirsty as fcuk" Shepard's just go and get laid.
After you do you will A) realise it wasn't censorship and B) its a camera angle change of a pixelated ass. I seriously am struggling to understand the mindset of some people. This is like the 9th thread i have come across all worked up over an ass shot.
