Mass Effect 2 and 3 were made backwards compatible two months ago, along with Mass Effect 1 which had been for a while. So I wondered if you had to choose which Mass Effect game would you choose to replay in order to romance a specific character, either for the first time or again. Assume you were doing a new game with no romance carry over, hence the options.

I would be replaying series after I finish my second run to romance Garrus, but I will have to skip recruiting Thane because I absolutely love his romance. Since you will have tons of votes for Garrus I'd put Thane. I also always wanted to see Tali's, but I won't replay for it because of Andromeda.

Oh God, I'm still replaying the Trilogy on the PS3 (there was no PS4 version for it), and romancing all characters is on my to-do list, and I will do so eventually (I have plans... too many of em, haha). In my current run I'll romance Sam and my last Shepard before Andromeda will romance Tali, but I think I'm most excited to see Steve and Liara in the future. Steve will get my vote I guess because I never really watched any of his scenes, whereas I know some other romance arcs already thanks to YT Were it for re-romancing someone, definitely Kaidan with MShep and Jack so far. Loved those.

I guess Steve because I heard it's great. However, I'm also curious about Miranda,Jack and Tali because I've also heard good things about them. Don't care much for playing as FemShep so it's unlikely I'd ever romance Garrus or Thane.
EDIT: On review, I realize I probably wouldn't romance Steve. It's Kaidan. Always Kaidan.

I'm replaying the trilogy now and romancing Kaidan again, with a new Shep. Also love Tali, Thane and Steve's romances... Of the ones I haven't done, I've been considering Miranda -- but in 2 and 3. Ultimately voted for Steve because he's awesome and so is his romance, which is also a great "new, one-shot" type romance. You also don't have to wonder at mShep's "STEEEEEVE!!!!" sounding out of place.

I'm just going to pick the vacancy in the poll. You're missing Tali in ME3.
In reality, what I do is replay the entire Trilogy each time, with a view of changing the focus of the romance (using different lines of dialogue) or by cheating with different others or by even allowing the LI to die at some point. I've done all the basic romances, but one scenario I don't think I've done yet is a romance of Tali in ME2, staying loyal to her throughout ME3 despite her dying during the Rannoch arc - after Rannoch Shepard becomes a bit of an empty shell just in mourning the loss of his love. That means no love scene in ME3, but that's not the point.

I'm just playing the trilogy for the first time and I'm still on ME1, romancing Kaidan with FShem. Next playthrough I'll probably romance Ashley, with MShep, let her die and romance Kaidan in ME3. I have no idea who most of the other choices are but will find out as I move to the next two games. (A lot of life is being ignored while I get these games played)

Picked Garrus since I'm getting ready to do a new trilogy run and plan to romance Garrus again since it's been forever. Not sure about ME1 though - will probably romance Kaidan (agsain) then tell him "too late" in ME3.

Aaaaaaah.... ok! (however... who will play ME3 without imports??? I'm not referring specifically to the romances, I tried once to start ME3 without imports and I couldn't go further from the prologue because everything seemed so strangely generic) I wouldn't start up a random new Shep in 3 either, but for the sake of answering the perimeters of the poll... I thought Steve would be a good choice. I have only ever started with 1 and always would. (Or at least reimport if I'm feeling lazy. ) My goal now is to romance Kaidan in 3 but I started with 1. Guess I just won't answer then cause I won't do a part trilogy for a partial romance. Sorry I misread. No problem. I was confused about it at first. And I like Tali's ME3 romance, too.

Steve, but I don't know, perhaps Alenko again... I'm about to do my ME2 Suicide Mission. As it stands, I modded a relationship with Kaidan into ME1. Then staying loyal in ME2 (other than flirting with Kelly). I find it unlikely that I won't resume my relationship with Kaidan in ME3 in favor of Steve. However, because I'd like to try it out I voted for Steve.

Why there is no Tali ME3 and Garrus ME3? You can't start a romance with either of them in ME3, correct? Probably why the option isn't there.

However, because I'd like to try it out I voted for Steve. If you just want to experience Steve's romance you could import an mShep you already have (from 3, even) and romance him. If you like it you can plan a new Shep for him. If you don't like it, well, you didn't start over from ME1 to be disappointed. It's lazier, maybe a cheat, but you kind of get to have your cake and eat it too.

Well, then if I have to choose one game to replay without the others, I would choose ME2, no doubt. So Garrus always again (even when I like his romance more in ME3). He is the best character/romance in any videogame I played However, with the two Genesis DLCs at least you can go directly to ME3 without suffering the narrative changes of not playing the other two. So, if I had to start a romance in ME3, maybe I would go for Samantha Traynor or Liara (I wouldn't go for Kaidan given the fact I waited for him as MShep for three games, like a fucking hero, so no shortcuts with his romance, EVAH!! )

Ashley. I can't play ME1 and NOT romance her. I've tried... I've tried to romance Liara in ME1 but... I can't. Ash had me at Eden Prime.
When I romance Liara the playthrough starts in ME2 lol

Kaidan. Why would I want to replay the trilogy with bad romance? Might as well read a book with a half naked man in the cover.
