Renegade != Bad I'd say it's more of a lawful vs chaotic thing, not good vs bad. I honestly picked Reyes because I really didn't like Sloane. Who likes Sloane? I feel like I missed something with Sloane. Like, does she say "Hey, listen, I don't like you, or the Nexus but if you help me out with this Charlatan we can be slightly ... less antagonistic?" I have no idea WHY you would side with her over Reyes. Like I said, maybe I missed some dialog. Or a notepad, where she opened an animal shelter on Kadara. I've never been so non conflicted about not using an interrupt. Genuinely though, I like to play the game once without any prior knowledge of romances and see what happens. I started flirting with Peebee, and then starting talking to Reyes and was like "ok game, sold. You Zevran rip off you."

Would give me left hand for Omega-ish Kadara DLC, lads. A lot of people have hoped for this in the romance thread over in the spoiler forum. That, or a Citadel style one with a party at the Tartarus with all the cast there, plus romance scenes and stuff. I feel like the chances of Kadara DLC are slim because they'd have to change the story depending on who rules the port. Which means x2 voice acting, different ambient NPCs, different squadmates reactions etc, I doubt bioware would want to spend time on this : ( They've been very lazy with, like, considering differrent player choices and all that lately. Really hope we are not going to get lore-heavy but otherwise kinda dull DLCs like in Inquisition.

I started flirting with Peebee, and then starting talking to Reyes and was like "ok game, sold. You Zevran rip off you." That's how I feel. I have absolutely zero motivation to side with Sloane over Reyes. She makes it clear she dislikes you, refuses to help you, and everything we see about her rule over Kadara makes her come across as drunk on power and rather incompetent. Her attempt at a colony is a corrupt, violent mess (especially compared to what the Krogan were able to achieve with just as little in the way of resources) and she makes it clear she wants to fight the very Initiative you're working to protect. On top of that, she managed to royally fuck things up with the Angara. Even if I disliked Reyes I would side with him, figuring he couldn't do any worse. But I do like Reyes. A lot. I was set to romance Jaal my next playthrough, but while I love the character and he's a favorite among the squadmates, he just doesn't click for me in that way as much as I'd hoped. Still, I was looking forward to it. But then I met Reyes, and he totally charmed me and had this awesome chemistry with my character. Like, he's that NPC I would have wished was a romance had he not been. So, sorry Jaal, looks like you're third. I'd love to see more of Reyes in a DLC, Omega-style, with him as a temp companion. I feel like it could work, even if you don't side with him. He is after all an opportunist, and I feel he would approach you for help regardless of your past, were it mutually beneficial. With Aria, you could just help her for the sake of yourself/the people on Omega, and not her. And you could stand up to her throughout the DLC. They could approach things with Reyes in a similar fashion if they wanted.

Or alternatively, an outcast themed DLC that involves a space station or another planet that the powers on Kadara are extending their reach toward. I'd love more Kadara politics and conflict, but not necessarily more of the planet Kadara itself.

I did a couple Reyes scenes over again to get screenshots. Thought I'd share some with you:

Is anyone already working on some Scott/Reyes fan fiction ? I kind of want to start writing some but I think I should finish the game first. (On that note, I'd love to have a brainstorming buddy to bounce fan fiction ideas off of because when I try to write stuff without that, I usually just write a page or two and then abandon the story LOL. If anyone on here is up for that, do tell me .)

I was wondering for anyone that romanced Reyes with Sara, what does they "About Zia" email say for you? The one for Scott is really gender specific, so I figured the other one must be something totally different.

I'm on my first playthrough here and I'm romancing this overly charming guy Reyes *drool* lol but what I'm wondering is this Will there be more content after she lock in the romance with him, when she lets sloane die and they dance etc... or was that the last romance content in the whole game?

I was romancing Liam at first but then Reyes turned up and I couldn't resist, I didn't expect it would lock me out of the romance from Liam lol, so when it did and I didn't really get much more else from Reyes, I considered going back to an earlier save but I've done soooo many things now that I really don't want to and if we do get something later, then I'll just save Liam romance for playthrough number two. I LOVE this game so much that I'll be playing it for a few more times anyways

Question regarding the choices with Sloane: What happens if you let Sloane die but also decide to tell Reyes you're through? Does he send an e-mail or anything? And is there an effect on the ending?
I've tried finding a video of what happens if you choose that option but haven't had any luck. If someone can point me toward one that would be much appreciated. :*

So I mentioned this in a different thread, but figure it belongs here even more so. Especially since I don't remember anyone mentioning it. How many of you happened to stumble on the Collective hideout? Apparently it's totally optional, which is unfortunate because it made my siding with Reyes even more of a no-brainer. I found it and went in and talked to that Asari at the entrance, but then worried I would mess something up if a quest sent me there later (as that had happened elsewhere in the game before) so I reloaded. Right after that I met with Sloane for her meeting with the Charlatan. No mention of the hideout when I took his side and talked to him after.
So I reloaded again where I actually went into the hideout, did the little quest there and talked to people, and it gave me a bit more insight into the Charlatan and his group. When I met with Sloane this time and was given the choice, it made a lot more sense to trust Reyes despite his lying to me. But it's easy to miss, as is the salarian who sends you there for unrelated reasons (didn't even get that quest until after Reyes was already in charge).

But it's easy to miss, as is the salarian who sends you there for unrelated reasons (didn't even get that quest until after Reyes was already in charge). Yeah, I stumbled upon it while searching for one of the monoliths (before doing the final Reyes mission) because I could see the waypoint on the map but couldn't actually find it so I figured it must be in a cave (which it was but it was a different cave ), went searching for caves and stumbled across the hideout. I'd also previously gotten the mission from the Salarian but that's not the reason why I went there. And yeah, I feel like the game has a lot of side missions that are supposed to be played in a very certain order or at a very certain point in the main story but that can actually be left for way later which can make things a bit weird. LOL. Maybe they're implying that Zia is a man. This tickles me a bit... Hahaha nah I think it was more like "my taste in women is shit but it's not so bad when it comes to men" Yup. I think he says "I have better taste in men than women".

Yeah, and I totally took it for flirting with male Ryder I guess I want to find out now if the email is the same when Ryder doesn't flirt with Reyes at all. Things like these always make me curious

Interesting seeing how many ways the Reyes relationship can play out. I was friendly and a little flirty (took the interrupt to kiss him), but we didn't do much more than that. You can still tell him "It's over" after the confrontation with Sloane, but there's no sad breakup email or serious regrets from either of them. They patched things up and became friends instead I thought that was really sweet.
