I ususally kill him with all of my male Sheps because i think Ashley is too young and too good of a soilder to die. I saved him on my fem Shep however, even though i romanced Liara.



I kinda have mixed feelings about Kaiden really, i used to hate him but after listening to his long backstory so many times he sorta grew on me. I dunno, maybe it's because he doesn't continously whine about his dead wife(Carth) but i can see where he's coming from.

Always kept Kaidan alive. I decided to try a [default] male Shep for the first time in ME2 and was so jarred to see Ashley that I had to go back to ME1 and create a male and save Kaidan just to import that one into ME2. Nothing against Ashley, I just can't stand a playthrough with no Kaidan. I haven't yet done Horizon with the male Shep but I'm sure it will just be my best friend disappointed with me. I hope it makes an interesting dynamic in ME3 and I can't wait to see how it plays out.

Male Shep, saved Kaidan.



Staff Lt. Alenko was the superior officer, a biotic and tech expert and was escorting a group of Salarian STG members to the air defence tower at the time i was forced to make the decision.



Given the choice between one NCO and a group of individuals lead by a powerful biotic officer, there were two choices. One emotional one, one logical one. I chose the latter. My Shep will still be haunted by the fact that Ash had sisters, a loving family, many who are going to miss her, some who may even blame him. The galaxy is a lesser place for Ash's death but, at the very least, in death her family has finally found its war hero and its vindication.

I actually get the impression that Kaidan was the one who is "supposed" to survive: a dead Ash will generate a galactic news message that she posthumously got a a bunch of alien medals for her participation, (along with a hilarious misquote that makes her sound very egalitarian and cosmopolitan regarding aliens) while Kaidan gets zip. At least I've never heard him mentioned yet in my "Kaidan dead" games.

I kept Kaidan alive, despite the fact I'm male. Why? Ashley always ran into walls and shot at them. Kaiden used his biotic powers and helped me.

On my romance playthrough with Ashley, I did what every soldier shouldn't do when a mission is involved and involved personal feelings. Kaidan was nuked.



On my Renegade playthrough, I followed what every commander who doesn't let personal feelings involve in their choice and left her behind.

It's mentioned that there's a charity or something in his name that sends child biotics to the Ascension project.

I hate his voice with a passion, I always kill him off as soon as I can.

Male shep, I sacrificed Kaidan.

I didn't really care about either Kaidan or Ashley, but I thought I might as well let the girl live -- and Kaidan volunteerd for the job anyway so bye bye Kaidan.

I was just wondering, if you are a Male Shep, how many of you have kept Kaiden alive instead of Ashley?

2 out of my 4 MaleSheps kept Kaidan alive

1 out of my 5 FemSheps kept Ash alive

[NICKjnp]

I did... on my Liara LI playthrough. Ashley is a space-racist.

[spacehamsterZH]

I saved Kaidan. I think he's probably the single most profoundly uninteresting character in the entire franchise, but he was very useful to have around because of his abilities, so Ashley had to die. Wherever she is now, I hope she gets to hang out with Hitler. I'm sure those two would hit it off like woah.



In all seriousness though, much as I felt my Shepard had to dislike her for being racist, I thought she had one of the more interesting and believable backstories in the game.

[tonnactus]

Kaiden is far better then ashley.Personalitywise and in combat in insanity.Also one of the rare human biotics and he have a higher rank.I nearly always let him survive.(male)

[RyrineaNara]

All my Shepard do keep Kaidan Alive. Kaidan is fare better then Ashely even thought I like Ashely a lot.

[Alamar2078]

In ME1 my maleshep almost never kept Kaiden alive. I think only one or two times [out of a BUNCH of playthroughs] did I keep Kaiden alive and that was only to see the sympathy reaction of Shep having to leave his LI to die on Vermire.



Oddly because I like to see the romance options in ME2 largely unfettered by prior entanglements I'm often importing the few chars that happened to kill Ash [primary LI] ...

[rage9345]

I only saved Kaidan on one playthrough, because it was a female Shepard that had him as a romantic interest, all 4 of my other playthroughs I happily killed him. I couldn't stand that whiny Holden Caulfield wannabe. Ashley may have been a xenophobe, but she never acted like some emo kid; besides, Kaiden complained so much because he was living in pain, I cured his (and everyone else's) suffering.

I have yet to not  keep Kaidan alive in a playthrough.  But then again I have yet to play a maleShep.  So I guess in my case, yeah, I stick to the "default".

I probably kept him alive three or four times. Wish I did more, I grow tired of seeing Ashley with all my imports.

Take all of Ashley's dialogue and make Carth read them outloud.

[Badpie]

I kept Kaidan alive for my romance with my Femshep. But I also have a dudeshep that romanced Ashley so I did both.

eh, Thane might act emo sometimes, but most of the time he's a bad-ass. Besides, I found his spirituality to be interesting, nothing about Kaiden really intrigued me.

[Suron]

I dont' like Ash over Kaiden or vice versa at all..so it all depends on the character I'm playings "theme" so to say....



I only romanced Ashley once..she's annoying and a xenophobe...though I do admit romancing her does open her up to be a lot more likable.



Kaiden is just kinda there..



so it usually depends on how I send them out.

Male Shep, kept Kaidan alive.
I have no animosity towards Ashley, but I felt that because she was
a) Lesser rank than Kaidan
Not a biotic like Kaidan
c) Believed in God and heaven
d) wanted to redeem her family name
Ashley was the better choice for me personally.

Holy ****.. I had the same reasons (except d).
