The period was somewhat disillusioning to me as well.  A lot of posters at that time turned out to be pretty useless and that made me sad.

Edit:  Though, I guess that's the point I started being more active myself.

I mean...if there was a poll about Ashley or someone vs. Legion who was going to be released in DLC, would it really be that bad if Legion won the poll?

Not really. Ashley is pretty poor compared to Legion...

It was "who is hotter" I believe, after Stolen Memory was released and everybody was drooling.

That makes the poll even more tame.

Ecael did the worst trolling, though. Finding out Tali herself was not chatting on here may have dealt quite a blow.

I remember people's insistence that the writers were actually behind the accounts...lmao.

I have to admit sort of using this place in that fashion already.  Though Azint's the only one criticizing.  Heh.

I've read too many awful attempts at making a Mythos story, I have this compulsion to tell someone that they are doing terrible.

Wait... Ecael was forum-Tali? Mind: blown.

My biggest complaint about Liara was that she really had nothing to do, she had little drive and ambition, and did not seem to fit in the story. Her railroad of a romance made it appear that she was supposed to be the romance of the game, which gave me the impression that her entire role in the story was for Shepard to bang her.

I got this impression, too for some reason.

I received very little emotional engagement from her romance, and felt somewhat sordid about it because she came off to me as the most immature character in the game. And I mean "immature" in a formal sense, I don't even care how 106 years old is to relative human years, she felt like a child to me, a child who needed someone to watch over her, not fuck her.

Liara, to me, was simply the load of the crew. We carry her around because she can not watch over herself, no less make her own decision on anything.

This Shadowbroker story really improved her as a character to me. Liara is actually doing something for the story, she even recovered Shepard's body while on her vendetta. The new Liara actually gets things done.

This is why I really want to help her now, Liara's all grown up and she means business.


That's pretty much what Shepard tells to the Council, when Liara first came aboard the Normandy.
Also, I did her romance just to get the Paramour achievement. No more, no less.

Meh.

That entire charade was hardly our shining moment as a community.

Maybe because that was her entire reason in the story?

Don't even get me started on the RP bullcrap.  I'd like to note that I was on record even back then that it was not a good thing for the thread.

What gave her away?

The bisexuality?
The complete and utter drooling worship she lathers on Shepard?
The fact that she was everywhere in the promotional stuff?

wasn't that around the time of the woo proclimation? My memory is fuzzy about those times. Atleast post Woo all those useless offenders left. The "inner circle" we have now is much better.

I didn't mind the role-playing until the thread was swamped with hug requests. It was every other post, and it got old very fast.

I do agree to an extent. I'm not sure about "did not seem to fit in the story." Because yea - she lacked conviction. Most of the other squad mates had something they were very vocal and opionated about. Wrex the Krogan, Garrus C-Sec/Red Tape, Ashley aliems (takin 'er jawbs). Liara? Nothing really. Kaidan also didn't really have that much either, although I could say that his willingess to cooperate with aliens may fit the bill.

Her railroad of a romance made it appear that she was supposed to be the romance of the game, which gave me the impression that her entire role in the story was for Shepard to bang her.

I received very little emotional engagement from her romance, and felt somewhat sordid about it because she came off to me as the most immature character in the game. And I mean "immature" in a formal sense, I don't even care how 106 years old is to relative human years, she felt like a child to me, a child who needed someone to watch over her, not fuck her.

My problem with Liara's romance was that it started so soon without any real emotional connection between Shepard and Liara being made. I remember playing the game and thinking "wat" when she asked Shepard if there was anything between them. They just met.

Also, yea, Liara's inexperience in relationships with people in general threw me off. You really do have to teach her about relationships in her romance because she has little experience in the real world, and was a recluse.

This Shadowbroker story really improved her as a character to me. Liara is actually doing something for the story, she even recovered Shepard's body while on her vendetta. The new Liara actually gets things done.

This is why I really want to help her now, Liara's all grown up and she means business.

I agree. The new Liara is better as a character.

It was interesting and fun for a while.

Like, the first few hours.

Then it just got OLD.
