The Asari are predominantly an all female race given that despite being able to reproduce with any species including their own they can all give birth.
They even have the term matriarch but no term for patriarch as a certain Krogan in ME2 confirmed.
I really hope Vailguard kills off the corpse of Bioware and their IPs can one day go to someone who can use them better.
Liara's "father" even chews Shepard out in ME3 when he called her Liara's "father", citing it as human-centric labeling of other cultures/species. Aka, cultural appropriation of a sort.
Eric Lang used to be a respectable designer, but it looks like his politics have gone to his head. Still, I'm glad to see people are calling put woke board games now as well as video games!
Designers, artists, writers working for corporations seem to always go down this road. I think because it's easy/lazy. There's prob some angle too where you are making these new IPs and characters, but will never get royalties or own them. It's just easy to use heavy allegory rather than put in a lot of effort. They'll still get the same praise from their peers and social media bubble, and same pay from salary. Of course their politics are always university/coastal elite, because everyone slightly different was pushed out years ago.
They hint at it at one point(and all the fridge horror that implies) by listening in to a conversation between a human, turian, and salarian(in ME2, I think?), but it's never explicitly stated.
Logically, its also the only thing that can make sense.
The Asari have been in the galactic scene longer than humans have, but other races still treat humans as looking strange despite Asari looking near identical. They've also all been breeding with those Asari all along.
So if it isn't the case, then Asari just evolved knowing that white human female was the de facto most attractive thing in existence and every other race just didn't see the connection.
Not physically. The implication is that, since the Asari are all innately psychic, they use their mind powers to manipulate how they are percieved by other species. Like Grant_us_eyes said, this is all based on one encounter with NPCs having a conversation about an Asari dancer where each of them, being members of a different species, all said the Asari look more like them than any other. It's not a complete illusion, the Salarian still asked what 'that pit in her stomach' was, and the human said it was her naval. So they still present themselves as mammalian regardless of species.
I think they already decannoned FemShep in the legendary edition when they turned her into the rippling musclebound love child of Kathy Griffin and Triple H.

They also chopped off her boobs in that picture. They really hate big boobs.
Anyone who hates big boobs is a heretic and must face the exterminatus.
The emperor has spoken.
Odd how he uses manbabies as an insult considering those are 2 things he probably likes
That's how he responds to his own rhetoric being pushed back to him.
He knows his actions are bullshit.
It's like when they respond with lots of crying-while-laughing emojis.
It's the mind's safety precaution when thoroughly defeated by logic.
When they laugh, you know you got 'em.

This troon and pronouns is a mass hysteria event.
Did they really release the game with adrenaline misspelled? They couldn't even bother to have a spellcheck program scan the text?
Oh my god. I googled the word, to see if it was some ME specific term. But no. You are correct. They misspelled "Adrenaline".
Very good. Never stop. We must become entirely intolerant of their ideology.
It's been awhile since I last played ME, but don't the Asari change their appearance to appeal to males of various species?

Did this just decanon FemShep with those pronouns too?

That’s a man, baby.
Modern board games are trash. I'm not interested in playing the slop from someone not talented enough to make video games.
