Time for randomly picking up on stuff from the past 5 pages again!

I honestly don't know what they could come up with as a storyline for Garrus in ME3. I'm under the impression that, since the Reapers are, almost literally, at the doorstep, it would be kind of odd to have completely unrelated scenarios for the sole purpose of meeting his father. Much as I would laugh at meeting a grumpy Papa V...I just don't feel he belongs in the plot of ME3 at all. Maybe I'm wrong, but it's just the impression I have.

@ Sialater: I know Kaidan only says "I loved you" in the past tense, but it wouldn't have been appropriate to say it in ME1 (and yet he still almost did), since it was too soon and not exactly under the best circumstances. And then in ME2, Shep's been dead for 2 years and is seemingly a traitor. I still think that he'd be the kind to say the words in calmer times, when he's more secure about the relationship.

@ Collider: I always had the impression that people mostly hated Carth's guts. I've only seen a select few saying that they liked him. Of course, that doesn't apply to Alistair, lots of people (especially female) are all over him. As for Zev, I'd call it a niche following. The people who do like him think he's great, but he's the least favourite LI of the DA:O bunch.

I agree that Miranda and Jacob were designed as the sexy romances, mostly to appeal to the casual gamer crowd (especially Miranda, since there are more casual male gamers out there). And while I can definitely appreciate her curvaceousness, there really is no need to shove her butt into the camera. It just feels odd, especially if you're playing a FemShep (since most of FemShep's possible LIs are straight).

Jack does cater to a niche in the whole "tough girl + full-body tat + shaved head" department, but if you just look at her face, I think she's the most beautiful human female character in both ME games. She has absolutely gorgeous eyes and lips. By contrast, Miranda's face didn't transition quite so well from Yvonne Strahovski's.

He would so tap that.

And finally, the vid you've all been waiting for...

Sorry, editing my post screwed the video up.

Jack's Renegade romance scene with Mordin instead of Shepard.

I could see Papa V blaming Garrus and his involvement with Shep for the Reapers attacking Palaven, maybe. xD "I told you son, you shoulda stayed in C-Sec. Now we got the bull**** fighting right infront of our door because of that bloody woman you had to follow like some horny, stray varren." *rofl*

Plus, we cannot forgot that at least a few weeks must have passed between the destruction on the Citadel and Shepard's death. Of course, we don't know, how much time exactly, but still, it could have been enough for Shep's and Kaidan's relationship to grow stronger! So we don't know at which point they actually left off when Shep died.

Jack is gorgeous! But I've always had a thing for "freaks" and people, that look different than the average pretty faces. They transfer their beauty on completely different levels, sometimes with just one feature like their eyes or lips. And often that's enough to just catch my eye for a closer look.

I didn't hate Carth. I thought his romance was very sweet.

Of course, it's no Garrus romance. ;)

Hehe, funny.
Though it's a good thing BioWare installed some sort of über failsafe on Tali's romance, you always revert back to Shepard when doing that romance, no matter what. (The rest of the female romances, as indicated by the above and that one vid of Miranda doing it with a Scion, do not have this issue)

That said, you can now play as Tali. (This one also includes a HUD toggle, cannot cooperate with the Mordin swap, but more on that in the instructions)

I'll try one with Garrus too, but I heard it messes up his jaw.

I've also made a file earlier that allows you to play as Kasumi, Lia, random male quarian and a Collector Drone, I'll upload TIM too, if you want. (Again, these don't cooperate with Mordin's mod or any of the other bodyswaps, you need to restore your Coalesced through -Commands>Restore Coalesced- in the editor.

TIM does have one issue however, he can't help but flash everyone the Cerberus gang sign when in combat:

Garrus' romance has this problem too (Sorry guys, no Mordin/Garrus for you!). I'll check Thane's romance later.

Miranda/Mordin will be epic. :devil:

@Xsauce: thank you so much *hands cookies and happily scrolls pages up and down*

@Thundertactics: those mods are hilarious. I shall try TIMmy's when I'm off for my camping trip xD need something to keep me busy xD

@kglaser: don't get me even started on my cellphone and this forum. -.- i wish there was some sort of mobile version of it. I can't edit or quote. Pictures do show, links too, everything else is a pain in the rear end to deal with. -.-

This, I liked Carth.  And after Anomen and Aarin, my impression was lots of other women did as well.  Granted when you look back now after we have Alistair and Garrus and Sky and so on, he may not look as good.  But at the time it was great.

Hmm, ok, guess I'll have to see for myself when I get around to KOTOR. I know next to nothing about the KOTOR romances besides their names, the fact that Carth had a wife, and that Bastila turns.

Speaking of Sky, how is his romance? From a cursory glance at the potential LIs in Jade Empire, Silk Fox was the only one who stood out to me. But again, I haven't played the game yet, so I don't know.

Lol @ the romance failsafes. They didn't want modders to go too far overboard, I guess Posted Image

Ah well, we do have Zombie!Garrus though, so it's all good.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it was two months after the Citadel attack that the Normandy got kaboomed.

I like Sky. I can't honestly gauge his romance popularity because JE seems to be Bioware's least talked about game. It hardly ever gets mentioned anywhere. And I am not hard to please on romances. I like variety. The only two to date I have not liked are Anomen and Jacob. But Sky is kinda Zev lite. He's a rogue but he's got a big sap streak in him. He's not ribald like Zev. More smooth and charming. He does have the dead wife thing going on though he seems the most over it of any of the LIs that have this. It's not something you have to deal with in game. Some people might thing he is too smooth, too cliche, but he has a brilliant voice. The same guy who did Aran Linvail in BG2 and I don't mind sap so I liked him.

I love Sky.  He's always so forgotten, though.  (The same VA did Atton Rand and Leon S. Kennedy in RE4.  I REALLY hope Bioware hires him for something else again.)

And... have a Garrus.

I believe the timeline between the Battle of the Citadel and Shepard's death is one month.

enough time for Kaidan to use the L-word on Horizon, past tense or not. This short time with Shep wasn't just a fling, it was serious!

Wooooow you finished it! It looks awesome. Very detailed too. And yeah I remember you, long time no see :P. Thanks for finishing and sharing this, last time I checked the WIP didn't have a background :)
