But do you guys really think without the thread they would reduce her to a cameo?
Honestly, no, and I find the idea sort of ridiculous. Anyone who has played Bioware RPGs knows that they value characters and character development over all else, and they aren't going to spend so much time getting us to care about a character only to unceremoniously dump them for no good reason.
Also, I think that Bioware has a good idea of where they want the individual characters to go already, and it is likely that nothing we do or say can change it too much. Even the addition of a Tali romance was apparently an idea that had been toyed with by Bioware themselves, and I think that response to her character only encouraged them to go ahead with it -- which is to say that they weren't inventing something
only because fans requested it. Bioware isn't just a great developer, they are great story writers, and they know what fits in their story and what doesn't.
