Just to point out how soft ryder is... PeeBee doesn't get her ass kicked off the ship after her loyalty mission when what she did was definitely going to far. Also, Liam crossed all sorts of lines and you keep him on board when he crossed the line trying to bend rules and get things done his way. If his pal were to have given up the information he gave? Yeah, he should be removed from the crew, without remorse. Both of them should be. That is how much of a pussy ryder is that they don't respond to those kinds of behaviors with more than a firm talking to. wow a whole two examples. Someone stop the presses.

Wut. I never knew that about the Wrex scene. Hot damn always something new. Not having Garrus or Liara at Virmire just sounds weird to me, as if Shepard is commanding a ghost ship. You'll only have three sqaudmates after this mission.

and we are back to square zero for the entire argument. I'm sorry. Which argument is that? I have a life and don't have time to read an 18 page thread. But I just played both these loyalty missions and it really highlighted the point about ryder being a pussy. Now I'm off to bed and onto life again. Don't bother replying. I'll step in and reply then, they were both fun and I enjoyed them. No need to overthink these things.

Your point doesn't stand. It would if you apply it to Wrex as well Are you sure about that? How much do you want to bet he can be killed without T'soni on Virmire? I've done it. I recruited both Wrex and Garrus. That's how. From all I've heard, you sir have some weird playthroughs. It's why, though he and I have different play styles, he's a definite go to person if you want to know more about the OT. I'm guessing that may happen with MEA as well.

Why can't I throw Jack off my ship for getting Lawson's face? Why can't I throw the quarian off my ship for going after the geth? Why can't I throw the asari off my ship for getting in Javik's face? Why can't I throw the hologram turned platform off my ship? Why can't I send the asari to Hackett and have Miranda back in her office? Why can't I have those options to fit my roleplaying? That is kind of the argument from most of the people in this thread. XD I think that's sort of the point. People are acting like MEA is somehow behaving differently than the OT when it's not. By all accounts, if Ryder is a pussy for not throwing people off the Tempest than the same is true of Shepard with the Normandy.

Mine has a lot to do with a romance in the OT that hasn't been matched in MEA. Mind you, it took three games to happen so this isn't a knock against MEA, it's just that I haven't got what I want just yet.

Why can't Ryder have that option in this game? Since Ryder doesn't have the option not to recruit, why not let her/him have the option to kick them off the squad?

Honestly, the only romance in the OT that I actually liked was Liara's, but Liara had a significant advantage as the trilogy progressed. ME1's was pretty lame overall because of her wooden dialogue, but LotSB pretty much served it up on a silver platter with a good action adventure story.

I have only ever romanced Liara in MT because I am interested in a committed relationship, and she is the only character that has good content in all three games. One thing I hate is that they hem and haw over the whole thing in 3 again. It's like "Jesus! We've been through this twice already, yes I love you! Let's move on with it." That always annoys me.

Yeah, at some point, you have to let go and let the narrator ease you into being the character. For Shepard, it took all, but 10 minutes. For Ryder, it took sometime to turn the corner. Ryder still needs more fleshing out, but for me, it's the overall storytelling and polish. Seriously, I'm disappointed. I'm not doing another full run after this. I'm going to finish this run as my canon run until the collector's edition comes out.

Several days/weeks later: Liara: I wish we could spend more time together like this….just…friends. Shepard:
