I could see that at a quick glance since they're both huuuuge, horned humanoids but there's no question about it, the one in the vault is like a direct lift of the DA:Origins version - armor and all. The comment Kasumi gives isn't special tho unless the alleyways she refers to loosely ties to the endless alleyways of kirkwall/deeproads.

I don't necessarily disagree, but I'm running out of songs with booze references in them!

Kasumi: "You look great."
*camera pans over to Shepard's chest*
:rolleyes:

Also why does she think she can get into the party wearing that ridiculous hood and armor? She even said Shepard wouldn't get in wearing that. Morons. She looks super suspicious.


That's not working for me. Also I absolutely hate the youtube :/ :argh:

in fact he should be the main character. And the DAO Ogre was a nice easter egg, I thought.

also since we're here I can point out that Shepard's little smile and nod when Kasumi pops the gunship shield was one of my favorite little touches. It's a blink and you miss it type animation, but it was pretty nice all the same. The visor sort of hides it, but you can see it after Kasumi goes maximum anime at 33:08.

No, RRW was already on the list. And then later after posting I remembered Tubthumping and thought "o god not that song again" because I remember when you couldn't go loving anywhere without hearing it; on the radio, on the grocery store's muzak, and any other time someone just needed a random inoffensive song to play. :shepicide: Scars run deep, man.

I was going to do suggestions but then I realised that most songs I know about drinking and being drunk are of the depressing kind.

I am still going to recommend Tom Waits though, especially Warm Beer and Cold Women. He has a lot of drinking songs though.

Frangelico
Creme de Cacao
Kirsch

Peas in a pod

The Drink
Chock Full O'Butts
2 oz Creme de Cacao
1 oz Frangelico
1 tsp Kirsch
Coffee

Add ingredients to coffee (hot or cold) and stir.

The Drinking Game
Drink whenever someone says "Collectors."

The Episode
TIM wants to talk to us. Some Turians managed to disable a Collector vessel and we're supposed to go check it out. Sounds shady, but whatever. We pull up to a giant space-turd and it's just as gross internally. Aliens are bad at specimen management and also housecleaning. In a shocking revelation we discover Collectors are (or used to be) Protheans. The first time here it is quite spooky and the reveal is totally whoa man. Also I pick up a sniper rifle because headshotting poo poo at max distance never gets old, and it's actually useful since sometimes there are things we just can't charge :sad:

Well of course the ship isn't actually damaged and it's still full of Collectors so we have to GTFO as quickly as possible. Oh, and TIM totally lied, big shocker. After murdering our way to the exits we chew TIM out and then find out how the Collectors manage to get through the Omega 4 relay when nobody else can. Now you can totally choose to go ahead and pick up the IFF but that has...unfortunate consequences later on if you then also decide to get your squad's loyalty. You can choose to skip loyalties but that too results in unfortunate events (or not if you're trying to get rid of people) down the line. So we'll wait to get the magical MacGuffin and instead go pissing around the galaxy.

We'll have a short catch up section with the crew and then it's mostly wide open.

I like to think we hit them so hard that their brains are scrambled, sort of like birds smacking themselves into windows. And it's less a helmet and more of a jockstrap on his chin, but cute nonetheless.

Here's what's open to us:

Loyalty Missions
Miranda
Johnny
Jack
Grunt
Mordin
Garrus
Tali (not yet seen)
Samara (not yet seen)
Zaeed

Haven't talked to Thane enough yet to get his, but should be able to trigger it after another mission or two. Zaeed's and Jack's both have a P/R check associated with 'em so I'd prefer to put them off a bit - we're probably close but better safe than sorry.

DLC
Lair of the Shadow Broker
Arrival
Overlord
