It is a bit odd to give her the surname Harper if she isn't related to TIM. It is a somewhat common surname, but why choose a name that is going to cause fans to make connections that apparently aren't there? I wonder if they just forgot that TIM's real name came up in the comics. I think it was just a nod to the Trilogy, or maybe they enjoy us going full tinfoil hat in the lead up to release. I really doubt it was unitentional.

I mean, go back to the Baldur's Gate games and you'll still see people with names like "Fenris", Canderous" etc. And Korgan Bloodaxe sure acts like a Krogan

I don't remember the Cora - TIM thing being confirmed to be true or false, really. Really, it still could be true.
Given the whole benefactor plotline, and the very real possibility that it's TIM, it's possible the condition for his help was smuggling his unknowing daughter to Andromeda.
Would be an interesting development for her character; it was all centered around finding her place this game, and then that place would probably feel a bit shaken when she finds out her father was a pro-human terrorist leader. Still, I don't really think it'll happen, in truth.

Thanks for clearing that up, bugged me for a while. I honestly think Cora's character is better off without those links. Tbh I have seen nadda confirmation, either way. I've seen it somewhere on twitter. It was an answer to someone's question with a simple "no", but I can't remember who said that. Someone related to ME, the acc had a confirmed status... and it was shortly before European premiere. I was digging info about her, Peebee and Jaal from so many accs I seriously can't remember who that was

James Vega's father's surname is Sanders though he chooses to go by Vega, his mother's surname, because in typical ME fashion dad was a deadbeat. (Did all Bioware writers have a horrible childhood?) Sanders of course is also shared by Kahlee Sanders, who is no relation.

Ugh, I want to throw Jaal out the airlock. That smooth mf is hitting on all my girls. I landed on Voeld first this time so every angara is untrusting toward us, Jaal included. Buuut after the patch the squad tends to burn all their banter in one go so we quickly reached the friendly-part of the crew status talks. He established that he considers her a sister, 100 m later he compliments her physique. Bro, I called dibs but still a few main missions away from the lock. Good thing there's no crew pairing this time. If DAI had the same tempo Bull+Dorian would have hooked up even before we could reach skyhold.

Sort of like getting Miranda's "it's been an honor" bit in ME2 if you don't romance anyone, I guess.

For those who have done the no sex route of Cora's romance, does the stuff after that refspect that choice or does the game act like you had sex anyway?

One of my favorite Cora moment in the game. Also at super high-res, you can view full size via clicking it.

However, an email she sends you (I think it was the one after completing the game) suggests, or at least that's what it looked like to me, that you two had sex off screen.

It doesn't have to mean sex but that's how I understand it. Ah, okay. That's not as bad as I was afraid of and can be seen in ways other than sex. I'm just about to start another playthrough and planned on romancing Cora so I wanted to make sure this route was supported in the rest of the romance, unlike Jaal's where even if you choose the no sex route the game still considers that you went the sex route. Thank you again for your help.

Thank you again for your help. Happy to help. Fortunately it can be interpreted in a lot of ways, it could just mean that she has a gift for Ryder that she knows he'll love. As I said it's just how I understand it but it's nice to have at least one romance that's doesn't end up in sex. I mean, the ''pretty good banging' it's okay, I actually love Cora's sex scene (more for the intimacy than the sex itself) but it's was about time to have a romance with an important character for the ace spectrum. Actually I've recently discovered I'm demisexual so I'm pretty happy with Cora.

I've reached the hug scene after the LM. It was nice but the asking for permission is still silly. This should have been the moment where "you grab the girl and kiss her like you mean it". And apparently it was a Sims-hug because now we have a daughter walking around in the pathfinder HQ.

Everyone flirted, but Ryder's not sure yet how much it means. The whole grab the girl thing comes on the EOS date.

I think you shouldn't be flirting with anyone, especially PB if you want to romance Cora. I'm romancing Jaal now and right after my first heart-flirt option with him, PB had lost hers. Could be the same with Cora.
