yeah I let her go on my first playthrough but on my second one I shot her. Bu then in that first playthrough I was kind of still figuring everything out. But then that what I always use my first playthrough fror in a game like this. I am always torn about Kalinda. My Ryder doesn't kill anyone unless she has to, and Kalinda is in a vulnerable state and shooting someone so calculatingly is against her morals, but she has been attacking Ryder and Peebee for ages and she's a total PITA. First proper play through I saved her cause the Peebee abuse kind of slipped out of my head in the moment, but I think Ryder will shoot her next time. I'm going to totally metagame my next pt. Yeah my Scott saw her as a troublemaker at least in Peebee's case while she did cause trouble at times she was at least trying to help even if she made a mess of it at times kind of like Liam tbh as well. She realised just like Ryder did that the key to surviving in Heleus was to learn and rty to understand the remnant tech left behind. Kalinda tbh kind of reminded me of Nassana Dantius from ME1/2 a very manipulative bitch. My Scott realised this and figured someone would likely shoot her anyway eventually so he got it over with.

Actually... no. Take this thread for example. I posted a song expressing my opinion in a lighthearted way that everyone seemed to enjoy because it turned this thread into a music thread. My second post was also meant as a joke - more negative in nature yes, because as you can see, after my original post, I was attacked, numerous times, both directly and indirectly. As an outlier to the rest of you in that I think this game is a 4/10, I think my posts, whether positive or negative, regardless of intent, are seen as an attack by many of you, because I’m not towing the company line. Some of you are just really easily triggered. Those are the people I won’t back down from. Your idea of a joke - reassess it. If it were not the thing you always do, chronically getting into insulting arguments with people and just showing up in every thread where people are liking MEA, specifically in every there where people are liking it just to add some 'jokes' about what you think of it, that excuse might fly. The thing is, it's not every now and then, it's a constant in the universe. If there is a happy thread, you will guarantee show up and piss on it, probably insult a few people, and likely be rude and condescending at some point. I'm not triggered at seeing people dislike MEA. I could give a crap about that. I'm tired of seeing the same few TROLLS trolling in every thread about how much they hate the game. If there is a thread that looks like it might have some people enjoying the game posting in it, there is a 100% guarantee that you will show up in it and at some point begin exchanging insults then condescend to them for liking it. I have yet to see a positive post from you in the MEA forum unless it is about how much you positively hate MEA. Yet, there are others who I know do not like MEA or aspects about it, who are capable of engaging in interesting discussion about the game without behaving in the ways you do. So clearly it is not that people have issues with other people discussing aspects of the game they don't like. It's more like they have issues with you. Perhaps you should think on that. Again, I don't care that you think the game is a 4/10. You are entitled to your opinion. Really it's not any of my business and none of my concern. I do care however that you seem to get some twisted pleasure out of coming into a thread where people are focused solely on what they like about the game so you can insult or rile them in antagonistic ways. The Jizz video and circlejerking comment are precisely what I'm talking about to clarify. There's not need for that shit. But that seems to be who you are and what you do. Other people can discuss their dislike for their game even among people who like it and conversation never degrades to that level of trash. You? Always happens because you are incapable of having a civil discussion without the insults. Actually, the guy's very first post was a very typical "look, my Ryder is the prettiest girl anyone can possibly make, she is awesome!" Then something changed, and he embarked on this obsessive vendetta that is way past when he stopped playing the game. There is nothing for it, but a shrug about other people's problems and an ignore button.

I shot her, because it was the woman who put significant resources in attempting to eliminate a Pathfinder out of nothing but petty spite or the device. And getting that device was arduous. Saving Kalinda instead had no net benefit.
I was never curious if this device might become a plot device later, but maybe it is actually a thread that was intended to be built upon. Hmm...

It's already bad enough that a space vagrant decided to bunk in an escape pod only to have another one pilfer stuff off the ship. Aside from that, any new technology of this sort is immensely more valuable than some pesky outlaw that tried to have the team killed on multiple occasions. My Ryder refuses to go on a wild goose chase just to come up empty handed and some pitiful asari to show for all that trouble.

There is nothing for it, but a shrug about other people's problems and an ignore button. Eh, trolls will be trolls. If nothing else I think his posts about BotW are funny. My main troll question is whether Mahad is a really bad or a really good troll. His actual posts are pretty basic - he doesn't do any of the Nintendo-is-god stuff that suko does, it's just 'duh MEA is terrible because I said so lolz'. But his account name and avatar are from a game that got just as much an unfair reception as MEA (Dead Space 3) - in fact, a lot worse, given that it was released in a much better state. That would be significantly meta and worthy of many dank points.

Kalinda would 100% shoot Peebee or Ryder in the back if the situation were reversed. She's just a selfish bitch. If the game wanted to make the decision harder, it needed to give her at least one sympathetic quality or an ounce of character development to suggest she is a redeemable person (for ex as ME2 did with Sidonis and Maelon). Just like I will always let Miranda shoot Niket. Fuck that guy.

MEA 2 is not really needed. Good DLC with some very unexpected ending, like Sara killing Scott for not waking up mother and committing suicide, Jaal revealed as a Kett spy destroying Tempest and killing the crew, Kett attack destroying Nexus and at the best at the end - Tann as a sole survivor from Nexus being sexually assaulted by some lonely Krogans...

It's not about how Kalinda is portrayed for me, but how my Ryder would respond. Shooting people who aren't shooting first isn't second nature to her. She doesn't like to take a life. So in a split second decision Ryder hesitates, Kalinda lives. If I'm metagaming she dies. My Shep wouldn't have hesitated, but my Ryder isn't my Shep.

Actually, the guy's very first post was a very typical "look, my Ryder is the prettiest girl anyone can possibly make, she is awesome!" Then something changed, and he embarked on this obsessive vendetta that is way past when he stopped playing the game. There is nothing for it, but a shrug about other people's problems and an ignore button. Exactly. My philosophy at this point is to starve that subset of the forum of air. They post something provoking I'm just going to ignore the fuck out of it. Let 'em bleat to themselves. That feels like a solid plan worth following. Very wise.

Exactly. My philosophy at this point is to starve that subset of the forum of air. They post something provoking I'm just going to ignore the fuck out of it. Let 'em bleat to themselves. That feels like a solid plan worth following. Very wise. Yeah, now we just have to see how long it lasts. My under/over on myself right now is 3 days.

Case in point - our friendly neighbourhood Trump supporter. He may support Trump but he's a good guy.

MEA 2 is not really needed. Good DLC with some very unexpected ending, like Sara killing Scott for not waking up mother and committing suicide, Jaal revealed as a Kett spy destroying Tempest and killing the crew, Kett attack destroying Nexus and at the best at the end - Tann as a sole survivor from Nexus being sexually assaulted by some lonely Krogans... they'd have to be really lonely krogans.

Kalinda would 100% shoot Peebee or Ryder in the back if the situation were reversed. She's just a selfish bitch. If the game wanted to make the decision harder, it needed to give her at least one sympathetic quality or an ounce of character development to suggest she is a redeemable person (for ex as ME2 did with Sidonis and Maelon). Just like I will always let Miranda shoot Niket. Fuck that guy. Kalinda is a selfish bitch, but my Ryder isn't, so it was a hard decision for her (and for me playing as her). It's not about how Kalinda is portrayed for me, but how my Ryder would respond. Shooting people who aren't shooting first isn't second nature to her. She doesn't like to take a life. So in a split second decision Ryder hesitates, Kalinda lives. If I'm metagaming she dies. My Shep wouldn't have hesitated, but my Ryder isn't my Shep. Indeed my Ryder may not be as experienced as Shep but they know trouble when they see it.

Hmm, I think my M!Ryder will actually shoot faster than Shepard. He's younger, and values life far less. I think my Paragon Shepard is my canon, but my scoundrel Ryder is my canon over the good girl one.

I think my Paragon Shepard is my canon, but my scoundrel Ryder is my canon over the good girl one. I think I see my sisRyder as a Shepard in training. She's young and hasn't seen a lot yet so she's a little green and naive. She acts more impulsively.. My Ryder punches the reporter (if she could have) and my Shepard uses the Intimidate. My Shepard sides with the Moshae because the sacrifice is necessary and my Ryder instinctively believes this, too, but saves the Angara because she can't bring herself to betray her friend. They both save the rachni queen and shoot Kalinda. They are similarly talented with a snjper rifle but my Shepard is smarter/seasoned on the field and definitely wins when Ryder makes a rookie mistake. But I think both my canon Shep and Ryder are middle/neutral characters who sometimes make the hard decision and other times the idealist ones, but neither would ever be on the side of Cerberus. (I gibbed this new Shep to be able to make any decision I want without penalty, and I like her much better than my other one... for ex, when you get back from Tali's mission Paragon Shep is way too nice. They waited 3 hours! The Intimidate is way more satisfying: "Go get your ship!")
