Bioware is totally making fun of us. Or themselves. I can't really tell.

It might be themselves, I know David Gaider mentioned that he personally thought the Jacob romance was "Cringe-Worthy" so I think they get that they dropped the ball with Jacob. I have a few pointed words about Jacob's writing but that's neither here nor there . . .

Well just because they work in the same corporation doesn't mean they have to love all eachother's work. I'm sure that there's people on the ME2 team who've found stuff they didn't like on Dragon Age.

I really can't fault Gaider for saying what he said - pretty much every fan has been saying the same thing: Jacob is an awesome setup for a character and a nice guy, but everything dealing with the romance from his lines to Hale's sudden case of the sleazy boss just went horribly, horribly wrong.

The true power behind the throne ... if you romanced Liara that is.

Such wasted potential, les sigh.  I think his voice actor could melt butter so his dialogue is extra disappointing.  Oh well.

I think there are parts of the Jacob romance that are good (he does ask Shep how she's doing, for example) but the 'love' scene is just soooooo wrong.

I'll just leave this here
The dialogue between Hale and Lazarre could've been smokin' (both are good voice actors)--WTH happened?

Finally getting around to starting a serious FemShep playthrough with my avatar character.  Been so focused on fine-tuning my "canon" game for Mass Effect 3 import that I have just kept putting off getting this one going.  I've kept tweaking what she looks like - I've used the name Raina Shepard since I posted my treatise on creating Shepards way back in '07 - and this is an updated version of the same look.

So far I've only completed the intro missions and gotten acquainted with the Normandy SR-2.  Since I'm a screenshot wh*re, here's the best ones, following Raina's progress:
(All images are 1920x1080)








Why post a buncha screenshots in the thread?  

Well, first - pride.  I think I did a good job with her look and welcome comments and criticism as I'm forever tweaking all my toons. 

Second and more importantly, looking for ideas on what to do with my playthrough - decisions to go with, LIs to pursue - if there are funny unique dialogues or other interesting choices I ought to check out, let me know.  

Edit: Fixed thumbnail hyperlinks.

She looks so down-to-earth, Up. Very cute, too!

omG! is that really...? wow. i could only get halfway through that. that is horrible.

what happened? i know hale can do flirtatious/empowered/determined/subtle all at the same time, so how did that happen? sigh.... no offense, but I miss the SR1. clearly the SR2 put something into the airducts that makes everyone crazy. like kelly. and the little problem mordin tells you about. Cerberus is a zoo.



*sigh* good times.

[Fiery Phoenix]

SR1 actually felt like a spaceship. SR2, on the other hand, feels more like a huge science lab. But the two are still great ships.

I agree.  She looks very natural.  Good proportions and combination of colors.

Suggestions?  I'd make her a paragon.  Random funny dialogue choice though? I like picking the neutral option on Joker's first conversation ("I guess I should be happy you're wearing pants.")

I like! Be sure to do the femshep exclusive renegade option when talking to the batarian merc recruiter on omega! but depends on if you like to see femshep tossing people out of windows for the rest. i like to choose paragon actions but have her say snarky renegade/neutral things. it's funny that way.

LIs...um, well, you can choose thane, garrus, or jacob - samara as a teaser - can you get liara w/the DLC? or do you have to have romanced her in #1. as you can see from my screenshots, i'd recommend kaidan, but he's ME1 only (for now, unless BW as a christmas present planned).

truly though, femshep just ROCKS whatever way you play her. hale delivers the lines SO well that she has this kind of fire to her that you can believe she's a hot-headed renegade or a passionate and compassionate paragon and it all works. have fun! post screenshots!

Sorry Jlb. I just got home from work! 10 hrs yay I got that Shep/Liara pic from the Liara disscussion group actually. Orginally from DA site though. Set it as my desktop. WooT!
