I really liked If You Need Me. Very entertaining, but takes like 2 hours to read all 35 chapters. ;)



And Sago_mulch, I double-dog-dare you to type a relevant response which 1) does not include the word "racist" and 2) is not in ALL CAPS.

Tali . . . . I'll stay mum so as not to offend. I'm just disappointed with what they have done to her.
 


Go on


Fine.  I will.

Tali never used to have a self-esteem problem.  SHe had a mind of her own, was completely badass, feisty and very interesting.  In ME2 she is all about Alpha!Shepard.  Gross.

Sorry Talmancers, I don;t mean to offend your lovely goddess, I just think the writing sucked and they retconned the hell out of her.  THey could have done better., imo.

Looks like all the romance option for the women have a problem.

Protip: you can do this for everything.

Jack=Psychopath
Tali=Child
Miranda=Skank
Chakwas=Old

Looks like all the romance options for men have a problem.

These aren't my actual opinions, but tossing out an adjective which is superficially, if at all, related to the character does not an arguement make. Borderline trolling, in fact.

Ask Bioware....


RACIST


No I'm not racist because I never said why I thought Jacob was a gang member. You think I said it because he is black, but I never said that. So YOU are the racist for thinking it.


WHY ASSUME JACOB IS A GANG MEMBER THEN? THE ONLY CONCLUSION - BECAUSE HE IS BLACK


No because he is with Cerberus, and Cerberus is a gang. So everyone, including Shepard is a gang member. But you are racist and you just proved it. :o


CERBERUS IS NOT A GANG.

YOU'RE ONLY CALLING IT A GANG BECAUSE A BLACK GUY IS IN IT

I always thought Tali was there to educate me on Quarian exile

EDIT:  I should clarify.  My personal opinion of the characterization of Tali/Garrus in ME 1 is that there really wasnt any.  Same for Wrex except Wrex seems to have more dialogue on missions.  So I can't really see that Tali was a badass as I don't see much concrete made in that character in ME 1, it just seems imposed, and I would have still thought that but after playing ME 1 again I realized that Nostalgia had a hold on me.

Having a powerful woman like FemShep, known throughout the galaxy for her exploits, throw herself at a man like a sex-crazed trollop after knowing him for two whole days, while he responds with a shrug and a luke-warm throwaway line may be a popular male fantasy... but it sure as hell is not a popular female fantasy.

You made me lol. But no, I call it a gang because they act like one. A black guy has nothing to do with it.

I wasn't aware that people act the exact way in love that they do in non romantic situations.

As much as Joker is. She's got a smaller following than him, but she's got that older British woman, Helen Mirren sort of appeal. A lot of people would be interested in a romance.

Gmartin, you should realize that those descriptions were not serious, instead sarcasm. "Perfect" is not an insult.

Women don't play hard to get in future sci-fi.  Radical feminism changed that.  It's the other way around in the future.:bandit:

Edit:  Clarification
This comment was made in jest.  I thought it was obvious that it was, but just wanted to clarify this.

I think a basic issue with the female romances (Garrus and Thane in particular) is that they're non-human and unattractive. The quarians don't have faces (that the player sees) so it's easy to suppose that they're attractive based on their body plan. The asari look like humans with wigs.

Unless you have an amphibian fetish, Thane is IMO definetly not really rocking those features that humans ought to find attractive. The irony is that apparently he was designed to look like a romance interest from the start, which only makes me wonder what the kind of mind-bending drugs the arists were at the time. Garrus, though, he's just there by popular demand. His species was definetly not designed to ever be romanceable.

Give Jacob credit - his personality aside, you could at least imagine meeting him somewhere and not thinking he was going to eat your face.


Have you seen his teeth?
