Huh, you know I never looked at it that way. But yeah, Kasumi was the best addition to ME2 and the best DLC until Javik. She never left my side. I loved her shadow strike, her banter, everything. Her mission was also the closest thing my INFILTRATOR got to actually infiltrating something. Let me guess, that last line was innuendo about how your Shep felt about her, right? My friend, if Shepard got with Kasumi, neither of them would be stealthy about it.

Poor Jacob can't catch a break, I think it all stems from envy too. Guy can't help it if his game is so tight as to seduce Miranda, Femshep and Kasumi here. Pfft. Miranda friendzoned him and Femshep settled. Kasumi just digs the muscles. But really, no woman's gonna stick around long after hearing about the priiiize. Unless he knocks her up I guess. Forgot about Brynn, homeboy sees more vag than an ob/gyn. That he's the only one with the cojones to dump the PC for someone else ads a lot of points in his favor.

I remember reading somewhere that Kasumi/Zaeed was originally supposed to fill Tali/Garrus spots in ME2 because there was not originally going to be any returning Squadmates but the Fanbases raised a stink and B-Ware relented and brought back Tali/Garrus instead of the 2 vastly cooler Characters of Kasumi/Zaeed a damn shame if you ask me.

Wow, Kasumi and Zaeed. That's a pair I never would have guessed. Were they meant to relate due to being independent agents? Zaeed is just so...cynical for Kasumi.

You know my biggest concern is that they are going to pull another Kasumi Goto on us again in MEA and by that I mean they will be that one character thats freaking awesome ala Kasumi Goto that will outshine everybody else that they will dangle in our faces but not let us Romance them.

I would be intrigued, but not at the cost of denying people their dream crush. Tali and Garrus have the advantage of seniority in the trilogy. Now, as bonus romances in ME3, I can name a few to replace them with.

Even with Tali being in second for me, I'd gladly have gotten rid of her for Kasumi taking her place but then, I'd probably have given up the entire crew just for Kasumi =P Actually, I'd have taken Zaeed over space bro Garrus too.

I get B-Ware has to give a little Fan Service hell Tali/Garrus being made a LI was the Ultimate Fanservice to begin with.I mean Drew K or somebody else said after Mass Effect that Human/Quarian or Human/Turian relationships was impossible you know that whole Dextro issue.

I agree whole heartedly I love tali but after BWare pulled the Space Magic BS you know when Cerberus was rebuilding Shep they must have made him a Cyborg that way he can have unprotected sex with an impressionable young Quarian Girl sex that could have been fatal for her at least he doesn't even have a itch after the encounter right.

Speaking of infiltrating fails and Arrival, I will never forget this moment. Coming in solo to the batarian base, spot first enemies, they haven't spotted me. Take a step back behind pillar and activate cloak. "He's here!"

Just think Male Shepard/Kasumi Goto & Female Shepard/Zaeed Massani could have been pairings tell me those arent better than Shepard/Tali or Shepard/Garrus. Zaeed would've been a superb Renegade Femshep 'mance. His bad boy antics in his loyalty mission made her wet like the pacific, as opposed to Jacob and the two aliens that had her dry as the sahara.

While renegade shep isn't my personal canon, it was really hard to find a romance that suited a xenophobic Femshep. Kaidan could be persuaded to be a xenophobe, but that was jarring to see him change so drastically and it seemed to be left behind in ME1. Jacob's too suspicious of Cerberus and by ME3, there was very little roleplaying room. Back to Kasumi, which outfit looked the best? Always liked her magenta and black ensemble but it was fun to glitch her outfit to that urban graffiti design.

Kasumi is ok, I like her funny face and voice too.
But I glad that she's not a squadmate in 3, with her IMPOSSIBLE jumps and falls.
One Kei Lang is enough.

Biggest problem with Kaidan as a renegade manfu is that he's just so passive and submissive to femshep, and making him renegade in ME1 doesn't help things either. All the other male options aren't much better in this regard sadly(or in DA for that matter). So, those of us who want a masculine take charge bad boy manfu for our female PCs to submit to are out of luck, and likewise for those of us that want the reverse with a renegade male PC with a bad girl waifu. To get back on the subject of Kasumi, the one perk of her being a waifu is that she'd be neutral-ish enough to be suitable for both a paragon or renegade PC.

He's too reasonable, too quiet and thinks things over instead of making snarky comments like Wrex will. A male PC might have better luck with Jack unless you're talking about someone who is unapologetically hostile like Aria with no soft vulnerable moments. Man, you're right; it IS hard to find that matching personality to romance for our renegades! That'd have been awesome if at the end, Shep could have run off with Kasumi to steal stuff together.

Comparing that gigantic pile of fail to Kasumi is an insult to her honor. Choose your weapon, sir! As for outfits, default black is best. Not a fan of the red. I think she's the only one I don't switch to the loyalty outfit in ME2.

You know, I kept hoping that ME3 would have consisted of a set number of slots and you had a choice of who you wanted to be on your team as the plot progressed. Like say we had six blank slots. Vega and Liara occupy the first two. As time goes on we can pick from Kaidan/Ashley,Garrus, Mordin and Wrex for the Tuchanka mission. By the time we get to the Citadel, that could have been the moment where we decide if we want to trade any of them for Kasumi, Thane (shush, let me have this one), Jacob (yes, Jacob as he should have been written without a time crunch), Tali, Legion,etc to replace their spot. As for having more teammates like Vasir, I agree, it'd be nice for a more aggressive Shepard to have a choice in picking teammates that are better suited to their philosophy. How Jack would tolerate a paragon Shep who gets too preachy with her or Tali be able to stand a Shep who keeps backstabbing her, takes a whole lot of headcanon to justify breaking suspension of disbelief.

Yeah, it can get pretty absurd with how much Shepard can get away with doing whatever he wants and the companions just go along with it, like how Wrex in ME1 throws a fit over the idea of letting the Rachni Queen go and how he vows how he and the krogan will set things right against, but then after the decision is made, it's like nothing ever happened. And I would've loved to have Zaeed(my fave companion in ME2) and Kasumi over Liara and Garrus in ME3 personally. Not enough talking about Kasumi. We needed more clips of her parkour moves in ME3! Let's put to rest who truly has the best ass in ME2.
