friendpath liara was great. but then, she SAVED you - there was a lot to be said there. but there is a lot to be said with friendpath ash/kaidan.

Yeah, there's a lot of potential with the inevitable Ash/Kaidan reunion regardless if they were romanced or not.  Horizon didn't go so well for Shepard

I'm not sure I like the idea of either of them apologizing to Shepard, though (like most people want).  I don't think they really did anything wrong.

They stood by what they believed in which is admirable. However, at the same time they didn't trust the one person they should have. I understand their reasoning. I think they had every right to feel that way. I don't know if they need an apology so much as just a lets more on sort of thing. An admission that they trust Shepard or something along those lines. I'm still holding out hope that either they join Shep in ME3 or they work with her in some important capacity kinda like Liara.

Though I found it painful at the time, I say Ashley's refusal to accept the new Shepard, working for Cerberus, was ultimately in alignment with her personality. Ashley is an Alliance gal (and pro-human at that, and not too keen on aliens); things are pretty black and white for her. Under Shepard, in ME1, she occassionally voiced her somewhat controversary opinions about aliens, but was kept in check by Shepard; and she accepted that, as Shepard was her Alliance Commander. For Ashley to have accepted the new Shepard, though, working for Cerberus, it would indeed have been out of character.

So, far as I'm concerned, no apology is required from Ash. Ashley is the model WYSIWYG girl: what you see is what you get; no bull, no beating around the bush, no trying to be politically correct. She just tells it like it is. And she just couldn't accept Shepard at the time. It's all good. Part of why I cared so deeply for Ashley was precisely her honesty.

Having said that, I see nothing stand in the way of the Ashter coming to her senses again: canon-wise, it will simply have taken her some time to readjust to the new situation, finally simply realizing it's still the old Shepard (a premise, btw, we all pretty much took for granted after Miranda patched her up again during the Lazarus project; but, in reality, Ash has good common-sense reason to doubt the outcome, as I think most would, were this to happen in real life; especially since she found Shepard on the 'wrong' end of the equation).

So, no apologies, please; just bridging a gap which, at the time, seemed too wide to mend.

P.S. A small token of my appreciation of Femshep + Ashley I once made:

Wow... that's impressive!  I love the animations so far.

She is very pretty and tough-looking, if I get that game I might actually play her default face they did such a good job. But what the heck is up with those animations?!  Gah!  There is no mass there, no impact, no weight.

I know they said they wanted to make combat move faster in DA2, but that is way too fast right there.  Sometimes it's a curse to be an animator; poor animation bugs me way beyond proportion.

... and I don't like the art style either.  What is up with the Darkspawn armor?  Seriously?  When did Dragon Age turn into Conan?

[JamieCOTC]

On the VS thing, I'm torn. I don't think my girl wants an apology either, but to reach an understanding that both parties may be in the wrong. Ash, for not trusting her friend and Shep, for trying to deny she works for terrorists. She also needs to cut Ash some slack. Liara knew what was happening to Shepard, but for Ash, Shep just pops up out of the blue. Then there is Kaiden, something they both need to deal with. I can imagine, perhaps in a cabin scene, that Ash would ask why Shep picked her over him (and vise versa for Kaiden girls). In my head canon, Kaiden was the tech, so he had to go w/ the nuke. Something could have gone wrong and he had the skills to improvise. Ash didn't.



Which begs a question, has anyone here romanced Kaiden and then let him die?

To be honest, I have a bigger problem with Lady Hawke's sword. This looks more like stuff you find in Final Fantasy than DA:O.

You can justify the Virmire choice either way. But no, I couldn't break my FemShep's heart like that.

Yeah, Lady Hawke seemed to have turned into a Vanguard.  Hey, maybe lirium and ezo are the same thing?  Hmmm.

Umm, can we talk about Femshep again, onegai shimasu! I haven't played DA, and I have no clue as to what all y'all are talking 'bout.
