For the Ladies/Voice Overs

They do indeed take a lot more time. But in my opinion, do we really need 60 different nude body meshes..? 100 different Morrigan face morphs..? I'm really pleased with the work that went into mods like Realistic Bodies, Natural bodies, Pineapple's Tints, More Hairstyles, etc...but once that's done successfully, why not move on to mods that allow the player to enjoy fuller customization and the game as a whole? There are so many possibilities for new story arcs and there have been a few really good mods and campaigns that utilized the modding ability of the game. I'd just like to see more of these rich stories and characters. With at least a few points with female players in mind.

I also poke my head in on the BioWare forums every now and then, but am not 'active'. I'll have to poke around and see if there are people looking for voices.

What do you mean by, 'a few points with female players in mind?' Can you give us some examples? I understand why you think most mods and even the OC are directed at males (though I personally think, albeit in my limited capacity as a male, that the sex scenes mod caters to male and female perverts alike), but I'm not sure what female players would look for. Is it male cage dancers?

 

Edit: If so, should they wear special costumes?

lol, Awry...your comment made me chuckle ^^

I can only speak for myself, not all female gamers. And yes, I do think the vanilla sex scenes cater to both sexes equally.

As far as things with female players in mind (I lawled at the male cage dancer bit), Alistair and his romance line is a rather good example. Women tend to be more interested in brain candy rather than eye candy. Snarky jokes, flirtation, etc. And lest someone think I'm bashing the boys, I'm sure a ton of guys (both gay and straight) would appreciate the same thing. Perhaps additional NPCs with similar dialogue options to the vanilla companions where your discussions not only gain their affections, but give you insights into their personalities. BioWare did a marvelous job at creating superficial bonds between the player and the NPCs and I know that female players (and a large number of male players) would appreciate the same effort and ingenuity put into modded NPCs.

It's rather difficult to describe exactly what I personally am looking for, but I essentially want a fully enjoyable experience that engages me mentally and emotionally. Not just another mod with boobies or gratuitous sex sans a back story. I have a number of scenarios in mind, but sadly, I lack the skills to create mods.

Teach me how to make a new companion with unique face, create dialogues, make them compatible with the main quest, and give me a good mic, and I might consider it. Then all you ladies can swoon over my sexy manly voice. I'd thought about re-voicing all the dozen or so lines for Sten and adding a romance option (for those who want to end up crippled), but that also requires knowledge of some of the more arcane aspects of the game.

 

I can also do "brooding outcast" just as well as I can do "brooding smartass".

Ah. Then we're like-minded. While I can't say I'm not ravenous horndog like most of the male population, I've never been too fond of 3d boobs and virtual sex scenes (perhaps because I never turn on antistropic filtering), especially when nothing else is included in the bargain. I do believe that every romantic path has to have a solid sex scene at its end, though (perhaps with some exceptions; Planescape: Torment comes to mind).

 

I haven't tried my hand at modding yet, since I have very little free time between school and work and other things, but if/when I do, a mod in this vein would be one of the first things I'd think about.
