I’ve been holding back on commenting too much on Andromeda promotion material just because it’s been a wild ride and, as we’ve covered previously, Mass Effect has an odd history of jumping back and forward with quality of female costumes.

This is doubly a shame since it would be nice if we could have a vision of the future where these kind of double standards are not an issue.
