Kaiden was even supposed to be a gay romance option in the first game but they chickened out. You can find unused audio clips and they're hilarious.

Zero VGS posted:Kaiden was even supposed to be a gay romance option in the first game but they chickened out. You can find unused audio clips and they're hilarious. There are same-sex romance voice lines for both Ashley and Kaiden in the game files. I think it's unclear whether or not they ever actually planned to use them or just had the voice actors read for each part.

Here's an idea: Maybe the game is better if you imagine you're never actually playing as Ryder. You're playing as SAM. You have a goal - to restart habitation in the Helius Cluster and to make the Andromeda Initiative work. Your problem: You're just an AI and can't go anywhere. You have to rely on a group of runaways and incompetents to do even simple tasks. The main vessel for your exploration, the tip of the spear, is an indecisive imbecile who requires your actual intervention just to make simple decisions. This human wants to gently caress everything that moves and has to be constantly and explicitly reminded not to burn or freeze themselves. Not only that, whatever that scourge stuff is, it's loving with your perceptions because your human just talked to a colonist whose head was spinning, and before that they had a conversation with an invisible crew member.

Bioware's gone on and off record commenting that for ME1, it was just both VAs reading everything due to an awkward flagging system. So, mystery solved and that.

Is this a new book or an old one? As a fan of TIM and ME2 in general I have really wanted to get around to reading the Karpyshyn book that is referenced near the start of 2 when Miranda and Tali have an argument.

I've almost reached level 70 and I am reaching a point where I am having actual fun playing the game. It may have been the patch or it may be just switching up my playstyle from my former favorite (infiltrator with single shot abilities) to Engineer Explodabonanza, or it may be that since I've played the game before I now know to just zone out when doing tasks. Or just that I'm ignoring planetscanning now. Completely. It feels like there's a reason to invest in every skill tree at the higher levels, since there are bonuses in some of the trees that work passively so you don't have to switch up your abilities any. I'd still love to see just a single more ability at least past the 3 you get without switching, though.

Nah, Ryder and SAM will discover the Benefactor's identity in the form of an encrypted audio file deep in the core of the Nexus. "I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite knockoff of the Citadel" But the timeline doesn't match up you say? thats because it was Clone Shepard

NikkolasKing posted:Is this a new book or an old one? Old one. In one of the old books, Saren had an apprentice named Avitus who he taught to have a similar ruthless, brutal mentality. Avitus eventually tired of the Council's hypocrisy and using the Spectres to do their dirty work and left for parts unknown. Andromeda uses the character from the book and shows where he went.

Does Andromeda also show us what happened to the Salarian merchant on Feros, the non-corrupt cop-san on Noveria, and the guy who asks for his wife's body? I mean it's really important to find out what happened to them.
