Because yeah it only ever came up in Emails or after specific events if you indulge her. And I never romanced Suvi at all. didn't even select the first heart object that's always on her dialog wheel.

Yeah, but he's not the only one to talk about it like it's all there is to Suvi's character when it only crops up a couple of times.

Cythereal posted:Odd. In my playthrough, Suvi brought up God only twice, out of eight or so conversations. I haven't seen a single new conversation with her since the awkward flirt thing where Kallo wants to die so I had a one night stand with Peebee. The Tempest is basically a dorm.

I think, what people are remarking on is being forced into a "Do you believe in god Yes or No" moment in a videogame about exploring a new galaxy. I am not sure the most salient point is "YES BUT THE DEPTH OF SUVI'S CHARACTER GOES BEYOND HER FAITH."

Yeah I guess she was had a line like "oh Exaltation is so bad" or "wow Meridian is so good" just like everybody had after every major mission. It got very boring.

Carebearz posted:I can't decide between Peebee or Vetra for a romance option. I was gonna go with Cora because human purity but gently caress that "Not Asari" bitch: I went with Cora. She seemed like she was pretty close of being a good character, if she would've been a bit more sarcastic or jaded, especially after what happens in her loyalty mission. It almost seemed at times like she had some chemistry with Scott, but all in all remained a bit bland. The WBOK scene was pretty nice, though.

I'm watching the Freelance Astronauts' LP of ME1. I had no idea that biotic persecution has ben a thing from the start. You can meet this cult gathered together by an NPC who is trying to protect his biotic brethren from the rest of the world. It makes sense Cora would like the asari a lot. They don't hate you for being born with awesome psychic powers. (Well, unless you're an Ardat-Yakshi but whtev) NikkolasKing fucked around with this message at 20:22 on May 1, 2017 |

Well that's different I guess. Jack had to potentially hold that shield up for several minutes. (depends on how quickly you deal with the enemies) I found it a bit weird too, though. Cora mentions tearing apart APCs with her powers. Jack had to go through a lot of experiments to be able to gently caress up those mechs and stuff you see during her prison escape. *shrugs* Just Mass Effect being inconsistent. Nothing new with that.

It's Andromeda just being inconsistent and dumb like you said but it kind of seems like Shepard could have just searched Space Google for a random asari merc and called it a day.

I know it's easy to do but don't forget Samara was there. Justicars are supposed to be hot poo poo and I guess you could also have Morinth there as well and she's supposed to be super strong thanks to space psychic vaampirism. See, ME2 did it right. It gave us a huge squad so that you're bound to come out likinga lot of characters. I didn't like Samara or Jacob or Tali or Kasumi but that still leaves Garrus, Miranda, Jack, Mordin, Legion, Thane, Grunt and Zaeed. ME1, 3 and Andromeda all gave us these really small squads by comparison so if you don't like Liam or Cora, that's a pretty big hit to overall likability for your companions.

Good point, I guess they're just supposed to be Queen poo poo of Biotic Mountain and everyone else is just whatever.quote:ME1, 3 and Andromeda all gave us these really small squads by comparison so if you don't like Liam or Cora, that's a pretty big hit to overall likability for your companions. I'd like Cora more if she'd shut the gently caress up about those asari manuals. Liam and Jaal are pretty boring so I mostly just rotate in and out Vetra, Peebee (who is way way better than I thought she was going to be), and Drack.

It's interesting - and horrifying - to think about being a literal clone of your abuser.

Me, her and Zaeed against the world.

She didn't revive Shepard so much as she was part of the team that monitored everything I thought? Plus she also wanted TIM to put control triggers in you, gently caress her. loving daddy issues led to her being a meh as gently caress character.

No it was Miranda who wanted a control chip put in Shepard and TIM who overrode her. Then several months later it would be Shepard overriding Miranda in the engine room.

Did anyone notice that one of Drack's loyalty skill tree things lets him auto-revive himself every 60 seconds? I need to go do his loyalty mission so I can AFK behind cover and let him clear out the map for me.
