I created a poll to find out what the majority here thinks about Jacob. There is A LOT of Jacob bashing, it's fun mostly, but there are also people  who state that he is allright.
The general statment made is that "Nobody likes Jacob".
I am curious what the results will be and I would really appreciate it, if many community members would give their opinion.
I hope that I provided the poll with sufficient answer options.

I'd say Jacob was the worst squadmate in a Bioware game ever...

[Goodwood]

And people said Garrus had a pole up his arse...

[Cyberfrog81]

Jacob is pretty boring.

But while I did make this,

that doesn't mean I "hate" him.

How dare you, good forumite!

He was awesome in game 2. In game 1 he was like ugh.

Oh, in 2 he was great! But since that's not a Bioware game, it doesn't count. In 1 he would open a single Sith base door for me, then get swapped out and left on the ship for the rest of the game.

There should have been "I hate him as a LI but he is good as a drink buddy"

Shepard: Jacob, you're a moron.

Jacob: Yeah, you're right Commander.

Jacob: Will you help me with my father?

Shepard: No.

Jacob: Yeah, it's probably best not to bother with it.

Shepard: How are you today Jacob?

Jacob: Meh, okay.



This is why.

Truth. I don't think I bothered to get two beeps out of him after Taris. Not like he had anything at all of interest to say anyway.

I guess you're right and it doesn't count if it was Obsidian and not Bioware.

[FenixFire]

Jacob was okay, but his powers weren't much of a complement because my main character already was a Vanguard. Same goes for Jack, their personalities were okay but their powers weren't that good when you're already a Vanguard yourself.



Still think Jacob is full of steroids though. He had massive bulk on top, but nothing on the bottom (no sexual innuendo intended).

[FenixFire]

EDIT: Double post, my bad.

I like Jacob, he's a straight forward mercenary type character. His loyalty mission is pretty decent and his dialogue was pretty well done...

Until I tried my very first Femshep, then I started to see why people are having issues with his dialogue.

[Nightwriter]

Yeah, as femShep it was just intolerable.

But even as maleShep, every talk with Jacob seemed to amount to, "Go away. I'm just fine without you bothering my existence."

[gutty47]

Not liking someone isn't the same as hating someone.

I nothing'd Jacob. All of his cool background is ignored (why couldn't his loyalty mission have been about the Corsairs?) and his 'cant talk' line is annoying.

[Wrathra]

My problem isn't with Jacob as much as it was with Femshep's interactions with Jacob. I couldn't tolerate talking with him for more than 5 seconds because she did that awful voice and squirmed all over the damned table.  And once I finally got past the squirmy sexy crap he had absolutely nothing to say.   I avoided him like the plague.

Plus, there's the whole Priiiize thing.... all his interactions were like some bad soft core movie. Ugh.

I voted: 'Jacob is my buddy, he's allright'

Because...he is.

Jacob was alright. I enjoyed talking to him, he is a good guy with some interesting things to say. He just didn't really bring anything to the table squad power wise.

[THX2012]

He generally lacked any/all personality. He was just not interesting to talk to in the slightest.

I found his Pull and Squad Ammo power to be useful with my Sentinel.  I took him along a good bit during that playthrough.

[Jack Package]

Hm I think the problem most people here have with Jacob is the romance thing. I played only once with a FemShep which stayed loyal to her ME 1 LI, so I avoided the "Are you single?" (or something similar) dialogue option and everything was fine. However I saw the romance vids and it is bad indeed.

WTF?!? I loved my little droid buddy. He had much better dialog too, as well as usefull skills.

[Nightwriter]

Easy, Karstedt. Chaos was meanin' in game 1.

[ResidentNoob]

Jacob is my bro. He's probably the kind of guy I'd have as a friend in real life.



Plus, something to remember: He's the first Cerberus employee you meet in the franchise who isn't trying to kill you.
