Nobody is gonna say anything about Thane. It's a horrendous oversight by Bio... :wtf: :sob: That's what you need the Citadel DLC for!

I don't do it often, but I have refused to let the VS back on the Normandy after the coup. Best reaction is from Joker, I think. If you don't talk to them at all while they're in the hospital, they will not return to the Normandy.

Ashley sure gets upset though if she does offer to come back and you turn her down. I don't think I've ever turned Kaidan down (when I play with him as VS, I'm doing so because I ultimately want his biotics on the team in ME3).

I have had circumstances where it was impossible to shoot her/him and circumstances where it was impossible not to shoot her/him. Lowering the weapons (i.e. using the interrupt) can tip the scale, but it's not the only thing that can. I've also had a situation when I have kept my weapons drawn (i.e. not used the interrupt) and still had them back down. It's a complicated reputation check that also takes in whether or not the VS was romanced, whether or not they were cheated upon... and how it all ultimately adds up is what matters. Never said it was the only thing. Just that its important.

Who is KAi LEng? *giggles in happiness when Thane shows up* You were lying boo, look at you, you can still--- *sword through his abdomen* :o :( :crying: You stay there, Boo. I'm going to kill this guy SO HARD. :pissedoff: Yes, you will. Remember that Renegade action button you did not want to use ever again on page... something?

So you've given up on Kaidan, I take it? I dunno. Probably. My lover just died Dragon. :crying: I can't think about that now. No one else has even flirted with me. I guess I could do another romance if the start of it felt just right and it wasn't like...the very next time I played. In my fictional character grief, I kinda feel like saving the galaxy, all my comrades, but letting Shepherd die. I don't know if that can even be accomplished. And regarding your question about Andromeda... Definitely not waiting anxiously. Maybe I'd play it a year from now. Read your letters before deciding....on Kaiden, not Andromeda. Andromeda is going to be awesome.

OMG, I just found this and I'm crying all over again. Thane's Voiced Goodbye Letter to romanced Shepherdoh my gosh... Shepherd isn't romancing anyone else. And she needs to die saving the world. It's decided. *sigh* now how to accomplish this without spoilers. Ah, so you did. Sorry for double post. Yes, that was my solution, but it is brighter than you'd expect with One of the endings. I absolutely love that love story. A dying man, a dead woman, both fulfilling their purpose, and reaching for the other shore, in another reality all together. It's perfect. Bao-dur's relationship was similar, but there was never an option to acknowledge love, and Exile sacrifices herself for a wrong man in the subsequent fiction. Not to mention the appalling way the game glosses over the end of Bao's story. Anders never lets Hawke to be doomed with him and never lets him close enough to have the unity of purpose... Thane is a swan song of Bio's romances, and the last echo of Jade Empire. From the moment Thane died, ME3 became a wuxia story for me against it apocalyptic background

If I played in such a way that Kaidan ended up dead I think I'd care less about the fate of my own Shepard.

Although the urge to beat the game ASAP so I can kill Kai Leng quickly is within me... Oh, just wait for it. I hate the way Kai Leng was written and implemented in the game (I liked him as a villain in Retribution, which was before the salarian curry, he just got butchered as character in the game). But despite the fact that I don't think BW did a great job on Leng, I'll give them one thing: I really wanted to kill this bastard at the end. I am usually not getting very emotional about fictional characters and even less so if it's anger. But with Kai Leng, they did manage to get me enraged to the point where I just wanted to see him dead. So I guess, despite all the issues and cheap shots, they managed that and kudos for doing it BioWare. And the actual killing scene is oh so satisfactory.

Don't care if I'm in the minority. Just NOPE to all of that. :smh: Terrible enough alone, even worse on top of losing Mordin and Thane. That's super lame that they dropped the ball so hard on the Thane romance when, from what I can tell, it's the classiest straight Femshep option from start to finish. I didn't say I WANTED to shoot Kaidan. I'm just saying that if he'd not have backed down, I would have been willing to. I mean, at that point, it would have been him shooting me so it would have been self defense (or, apparently, a squade mate would have done it which would have pissed me off majorly.)

Read your letters before deciding....on Kaiden, not Andromeda. Andromeda is going to be awesome.

He's the ONLY one, outside of Garrus, who HASN'T flirted with me right after Thane died. Shepherd isn't romancing anyone else. And she needs to die saving the world.

Never let's HAwke be doomed with him? You mean, have full co-responsiblity for the bomb? One time I sided Templars and made Anders help me kill the mages. it was my 2nd PT and I was still pretty mad at Anders haha In the end, I felt like we both left Kirkwall damned and seeking redemption for our murder sins. Wuxia?

There's plenty that goes on before the party anyway. No, it's something very Thane-specific that happens. This DLC actually has a lot of spending time and bonding with former and current squad mates outside of the party.

Liara "meet in the quarters" bugged out and won't start. oh well.
Off to save cErberus scientists?
Kaidan makes a comment about the weather. Is he always boring?
Is that.... Jacob? *Disgusted noise* he's even uglier now than he was. Second bullet and he still doesn't die.
Brynn sounds like someone from Dragon Age. Hmmmmmm. Damn. So close. Ciri/Hawke?!
Archer doesn't seem trustworthy. *squint* we'll see

You can't start a new romance with Garrus in 3. Kaidan will message you about eating lunch together, and that's when you'll know if he's interested. Your other options are Liara and Traynor. Or if you want to waste your time, Allers is "romanceable".

Why can't you just give me the override code now, Jacob? I don't understand stupid. What! I don't want Jacob to join, why my Shepherd say that argh Then Jacob tells me that the Normandy is my real love, like he knows me You're so dying next time dude Yes. Yes you are blind. Haha Kaidan called the scientists stupid. I am amused. Let Kaidan fix the guns. Does it just take longer if they suck at stuff? And Javik seems to be just standing there as I snipe And then they give me a "choice". Reading between the lines but I think it's Save the Civilians and Cerberus gets tech OR The Civilians die and Cerberus doesn't get tech. On the one hand, I'm playing casual, so who cares if Cerberus gets tech. On the other, I dislike Jacob and my mean side says he and Brynn dying sounds awesome. Sigh. I always play the good guy NY first time. "Evacuation immediately."

Yaaay Jacob DIDN'T join!
I'm lonely in my war room with the Primarch gone. I liked him standing around.
I have been using melee more. I put away the sniper rifle and pulled out the shotgun. I am RPing a semi suicidal angry Shepherd who wants to kill people in their face.
So, I should go do the Citadel thing now?

Kelly Chambers is dead. Yeah...
At the Citadel. Javik reminds me of Fenris. Too bad he's not romanceable.
Why do I keep getting ass shots of Miranda when I talk to her?
Zaeed? Ugh. Shoulda killed him.....Oh. He's not doing evil after all.
Gag. Why force the Femshep flirting with James? Why!
Oh my god! They tricked me into thinking Conrad Verner had died. I was actually slack jawed and beginning to tear up "I don't even feel anything", I was so suddenly shocked with this madness. I don't know if I should laugh or get ticked off.

About whether to miss or not.
But then I was like...

So I missed.
That was a pretty good bonding scene.

I don't have that DLC. It's really nothing story related, just an abuse of game mechanics. I still did that for half an hour though. You don't stab my Shep's buddy and live. You don't even stab my Shep's buddy and die relatively cleanly. Boy did I feel vindictive then.
