Shep: So you got a butt, I have one too!



Shep: See, mine is quite exquisite too! It's all the running and fighting I think really tones you up!

[Revan061]

Yeah, i figured it out about an hour after i posted that lol. My blackberry gets massive forum lag for some reason. Anyway, i finished Atonement about a half hour ago, and if thats what you guys picture as the “romantic hero”, then I completely agree with you guys on Miri not respecting that shep. most of my difference of opinion came from the way I play my shep. Or, more accurately, how i perceive my shep. The narrative was still spectacular btw.

@Andaius:
:lol:
Btw, that camera angle makes that modded armor look rather unpleasant. A texture change isn't really enough to make Miranda look like she wears amor, so I'll pass on that mod. 

[Andaius20]

Yeah, thats the only down side with modding in ME 2. since we can't add or modify models we can't get anything molded we can just work with texture replacing. So it's the same shape as her stock outfit. Actually doesn't look to bad most of the time. Just when the camera gets really close up shots like the butt shot there.

How ever since it rarely is that close most of the time, I think it's worth it. She only needs a proper enviro helmet now

That same guy who made the armor also has this mod



I had never seen it before, how do you all feel about it?

[NICKjnp]

As I was drinking my coffe this morning trying to come up with something to ask people... it hit me. I should ask them about whether their favorite character drank tea or coffee in the morning. So what does Miranda drink in the morning... tea or coffee? How does she take it and why?

coffee - it stimulates the brain more....



that 2nd texmod is awful.

[jtav]

I say coffee. She gets cranky if she doesn't have it.



Thanks Revan, for both comments. That's exactly what I mean by a Romantic (as in he's strongly influenced by the Romantic movement, not romantic in the love story sense) hero: emotional, focused on individuals instead of the group, unwilling to compromise himself for a greater good. It's my preferred Shep type, which probably explains my detachment from the romance. And Ieldra, I didn't expect any comment at all since you helped edit.



Not a fan of the second mod at all.

Really annoyed. Really angry. Really frustrated.

And a tramp stamp... ugh.

Miranda strikes me more of a coffee person than sipping the old Earl Grey hot

[ADLegend21]

hmm,I see Miranda as a tea person. It keeps her calm and level headed, which she'll need on the normandy.

Just pimpin' mah fic... Chapter 5 of "Second",  detailing one day on the Normandy when Shepard is off the ship, and the recruits all look to Garrus to handle things when Miranda is left in command.

hmm it's interesting, especially since it has squad interactions! Miranda's never liked by any of the crew it seems.

I think you'd have to admit that Miranda's not well liked by most of the crew, at least at the start... and for the most part she doesn't care what they think. Jacob's probably her biggest defender, but given their past he's not blinded by love anymore.

As for the non-humans on the ship, that she's proud to serve Cerberus isn't going to win points... and she's in a position of power over them, depending on who you talk to. Couple that with her demenor, and she's definitely going to have problems.

In my first playthrough, I wanted her off my squad inside of an hour of meeting her. Jacob I trusted right off the bat. Meanwhile, Dr. Frankenstein wasted her own assistant, wanted to put a chip in my head to control me, and had to be wrangled in by the Illusive Man of all people. Plus, she was Cerberus. In ME1, I went out of my way to wipe out Cerberus cells like I was playing whack-a-mole. Had there been a "space the biatch" button, I'd have had it on auto-fire.

That was my first impression of the gal. Of course, after talking with her, finding out who she was and how she came to be (and after proving herself to be loyal to Shepard) I was glad to have her on my side. She was reliable, competent, and even friendly once you got on her good side.

So in the end, my Shepard would go to bat for Miranda in a heartbeat... But would the other members of the squad? She didn't really seem to make an effort, and she doesn't really seem to think it matters. She's the XO, period. That's kind of what Second is about... How the rest of the team look at her and perceive her attitude and motivations. It's not a PR piece for Miranda by any stretch of the imagination, but it's not meant to bash her, either. Just like any well-developed character, her flaws make her interesting.

I see my shep as being passionate, but not naïve enough to think that everything will be ok if you try hard enough, and will be the first to try to save as many people as possible, even if that means sacrificing someone or something important to him. He also prides himself on his tactical abilities, and thinks that anyone who considers him lucky should try to make one of the decisions he has had to make, much less all of them. His convictions are strong, but he isn't stupid enough to let them get people killed. He did blow the collector base though, but that was mostly to spite TIM.



Coffee and that second mod was atrocious. I'm pretty sure Miranda is not a skank, so I'm not exactly sure as to why she would even consider wearing that. Unless she were undercover or something. Even then, though. Ugh.

IMO, she's a bit of a workaholic. These are usually addicted to coffee, as much as it pains me to admit it (I hate the stuff, smells like heaven and tastes like poison).

You've linked it before. I didn't say anything, but as you insist: Writing is OK, but it's not my type of story - too much characters arguing with each other for its own sake IMO. It all seems so pointless, almost like a soap opera. If you intended that, it's probably good but I wouldn't know because I dislike the genre. If not, then you need a plot. 

Edit:
Just saw your reply above. I get your point, but her character flaw seems petty, I don't think she'd be like that. That pettiness is why I said it all seems pointless.

I reckon she'd see the benefits of both, but still think she'd prefer a cuppa. Just making a cuppa has been shown to have relaxing properties, never mind drinking it!

I did not really get that impression.  They are all excited about working for Cerberus and she is the Cerberus leader, and not only that she is this top operative.
