It seems like EDI is fair game for people to objectify - the counter argument being that she is an object - but at least in her default metallic state, EDI herself is not leaning into this. Eva’s ‘skin’ is burnt off, leaving just the metallic body underneath, and I don’t really have an issue with that design.

Yet it doesn’t really surprise me that people don’t like her, because you take one look at her combat costumes and yep, I see why everyone thinks this is a bit silly.ĮDI takes the body of Dr Eva Core, a Cerberus Android who had successfully been posing as an actual human, so that explains her gendered shape. While EDI isn’t my favourite squadmate, I think she’s up there with Javik and Legion as easily the most interesting. Thinking EDI is a daft squadmate isn’t just a bad opinion though, it’s one I completely struggle to get on board with. Working in video games, you get used to hearing bad opinions - someone here wants High School Musical in the next Kingdom Hearts game, even though the obvious choice is cult TV detective drama Fillmore.

It has come to my attention that some people think having EDI as a squadmate in Mass Effect 3 is rather stupid.
