^^^ That is a terrible design practice and I despise Bioware games for using it.


I never romanced anyone in this playthrough (I try to avoid most Bioware romances), but it might have been appropriate for Liara, in London at the very end, to take on your DNA randomizer and get pregnant or whatever (after asking you) instead of just showing you some weird memory.

I'd have allowed that if you guys were good friends and poo poo. We all knew Shepard wasn't coming back from that final assault into the Citadel.

...this probably outs me as some closet furry or something, but I swear I'm not. :sweatdrop:

I always thought that this was the case anyway. Which is why I initially thought Peebee could be Shep and Liara's daughter, since she has eyebrows and that loving :shepface:
But now that we know they left for Andromeda before ME3, I guess that can't be true.

Instead of you romancing someone, Pheebee romances you and this manifests as her visiting your quarters after every mission to check and see if you have something new to say

You're just trying to get some crafting done or just enjoy how your quarters look, maybe drinking a beer or something; however, once again the crew wants to loving talk and mate as usual. The paragon option will be just to lock the door and wait for them to get bored while the renegade option is to punch them and dump them out the air lock. They'll be fine, they're still in their space suit/combat gear for some reason!

I don't think the rest of the Galaxy would appreciate a bunch of old civilizations/alien races screaming their digital voices raw from accumulated horror.

Apparently, the trauma of being kidnapped, watching zombies slaughter your people, and being agonizingly melted to merge with millions of strangers to form an undead civilization ending monster is just easy to wave off.

So ME2 Engineer with Tali and Legion means 3 combat drones, which makes a multi-coloured drone party happening. Tali's is purpley-pink, Legions is green and mine is blue.
It's like a christmas drone bauble party!
Also spamming AI hacking from all 3 of us just results in everyone standing around awkwardly as everyone is your buddy with no shots fired.
Good times.

Just make this the canon choice please. With the Andromeda folks just looking back at Citadel space and going "Welp, we'll never visit there again"

The funny thing about that character was that if you played a Femshep you couldn't romance her and she had almost zero non romance dialogue. After her initial talk there was I think one very short conversation with her in the rest of the game if you kept her on board and that was it.

Complete waste of space for a character but 'games journalism' (bribery) is what it is.

Two very different long-standing developed journalist characters for the players to choose from in our choice-game? Eh, let's kill one of them off off-screen and give the part to the YouTube "reviewer".

One of the silliest bits in CItadel is the look Traynor gives when she pulls out her toothbrush to unlock the Normandy. It's great. Right up there with Joker doing the robot at EDI in ME2.
