Thanks, guys - I guess you're right and I'll leave Evan alone. (;

And I have to agree. Ele managed to do outdo herself again with Rhona. Did you modify Lena's texmod for her?

I did.  It's a combination of the eyes/eyebrows from my old face texture + Lena's skin/lips and normal maps.

Top Also the only one I have left to share.

We haven't had a femshep question in a while, so what's everyones shepard's views on getting married to an LI?



For me, Kallen would love to settle down with Miranda or Ashley (PC) and Jacob or Liara (360) she'd just have to pick between the two of them respectively. XD

"I Remember Me" is my favorite origin quest in Mass Effect. It literally makes me want to cry (and sometimes I do). It's so perfect for Holly. Talking Talitha down, hugging her, telling her everything will be all right...

I think it really gets to me because of what happened to Holly on Mindoir. I have a vision of it in my head, but I haven't written it down. Probably in a ficlet when I get the time.[/quote]

From a story perspective, I must agree. It is easily the most emotional in-depth and compelling of all the pre-service history side missions. It does help the VA for Talitha is one of the strongest performances in the game. That scene required a specific tone and deft touch (I love using that) that even a minor slip could have ruined the immerision.

Admittedly, I do fancy shooting that kid from the Reds. The Turian's cheer about it is all the more amusing.[/quote]

None of my Shepard's actually had a problem with the genophage, especially after the speech from the weryloc guy talking about what would go down once the genphage was cured, Even my paragons like Angela, Mihka, and Novae Rog were high fiving Mordin for his work because not all the Krogan are reasonable like Wrex. Imagine if the krogan rebellions were still going on and Shepard had to do that instead of fighting the reapers. we'd all the screwed royally.[/quote]

Selene (Paragon) was more vocally irritated by the genophage, perceiving it unjustifiable to doom a species in the way the Krogan have been. The dialogue exchange between her and Mordin, who seemingly considers it a naive belief was quite intriguing. In contrast, Keira is less idealistic and had long concluded that if the genophage was cured entirely, the Krogan could well attempt dominance once again, and is therefore in agreement with Mordin. She further surmises Wrex is not long for this world and the Krogan are not yet ready to accept there exist alternatives to violence. What I fancy about this is how that moment provides a unique realization for Keira herself, who adheres to violence more often than not. Always much fun to roleplay complexity.

[quote]ELE08 wrote...

I would say choosing 100% bottom dialogue makes Shep a cruel and sadistic person, which is where I think people who think renegade Shep is evil get hung up. Being rude and cruel to your crew for example, is not renegade. It's there as an option because there always needs to be a top middle and bottom dialogue and if someone wants to RP a total a-hole they can. But you can still be professional or even understanding with your crew and still get every intimidate in the game. Renegade Shep for me = success at all costs. Undermining your crew is not renegade it's just being an a-hole. Getting your crew killed because you didn't do their loyalty mission isn't renegade it's just stupid.

In the same vein, the really distasteful acts like taking Talitha out with the sniper or getting Gianna and Anoleis to kill each other are things I also never do in a full renegade playthrough. Because both can be accomplished using intimidate options. Again, I feel like the really unpleasant outcomes are just there for flavor, because sometimes it's fun to do the stupid evil thing.[/quote]

Where I found the 'renegade' choices became moronic and thug-esque was during conversations with your crew. You have options that simply demean and insult the majority of them to such an extent I cannot fathom why they would want to help you. I suppose the Reaper threat is enough to warrant their stay but they game continues to presume they enjoy working on the Normandy. I cannot imagine mocking Ash's father being dead (you can ask if he is a zombie) or crewing out Tali would make either want anything to do with you.

That said, for a throw away run. The options can be amusing if only due to their unbelievability. I must concede I derived much enjoyment in having Gianna and Anoleis duel one another in my initial run and again even in now. Once the novelty of it wore off, it was more entertaining to proceed in a realistic manner and not cackle madly as you intentionally set up two people. Being bi-polar in the aftermath of that scene is even more perplexing. Shepard claims she thought informing Anoleis of Gianna's identity might give her leverage to force his cooperation. How could she not perceive he might be a tad hostile to a woman who had been trying to arrest him for investor fraud?

In any event, I still remain fascinated at times how people find it difficult, if not horrifying to play the 'evil' side when allowed the option. It certainly goes to show the impact a story can have and that even when just doing a throw away file, some cannot put aside their morality. Granted, after Jade Empire, I can understand why. That game Bioware showed no liberties. You were not evil, you were bloody well psychotic. Some of the things that game allowed even pushed on my relatively low morals. Regardless, you all are a better people than I because I still found it fun for a one-shot run.

Fortunately Mass Effect accomplished the "being a jerk" role devoid of being a psychotic nutcase you have to ponder why anyone is surprised this person is more evil than the villain.

Avery and Kaidan, marriage, definitely.

It's her own fault.  She just can't choose.  And she's not the sharing type.  

It would be so much easier if I could give her the same romantic fate my Warden had.

Personally, I am hopeful there is a good ending where Shepard dies. It will probably be the one I opt for most often. It would be entirely awesome if at the end Shepard gave command to Garrus, concluding the teacher student relationship they had with the teacher passing on the torch.

It is a difficult call who I would spin that ending to. Keira has enough suffering in her life as it is however it would be a defining character moment for her. And while Selene has had a relatively easier life by comparison. It would be in her to die fighting to save the galaxy. Suppose I shall have to wait and see what the ending to this series is before I decide.

... and saying "ending to this series" make me feel bad. Thanks AD!

Eh, you never know, end cutscene?  I doubt it too.  The thought of a bunch of aliens in traditional earth formal wear at Teagan and Kaidan's wedding does defrost my heart a little though.

I prefer these things implied for one, and optional for sure.  The line to Liara about little blue children was very cute.  I would prefer if things were left vague even in a text epilogue, so I can decide what happens myself.  Some Sheps I can see not wanting to get married, and definitely not want to have kids.  Others I think would like some kind of implied comittment.  GarrusxFemshep bond ceremony <3 Which begs the question, do aliens get married?

I guess I'm indifferent to the option of marriage.  If it's there I'd like it to be optional.  I just want a happy ending really.  Reapers defeated, everyone's alive, ride off into the sunset dealy.

Well, Avery is destined for her happy ending with Kaidan.  I will move hell and high water to give them that.

Meghan loves Garrus (we'll leave out Kaidan for the moment.).  And she cheats.  She's like a female Captain Kirk.  She'd rig the Kobayashi Moru to give herself the happy ending she wants. 

[JamieCOTC]

I recently tweaked UJ, bringing her cheek bone in a little tighter and bringing her eyes together just a tad.  I doubt anyone could tell the difference, but I think this completes her.

Yeah, UJ would marry Liara in a heartbeat, but y'know, Reapers and all.  I know what she wants, to settle down w/ Liara, raise a family, maybe be the next human councilor, but if it came down to it, she'd sacrifice herself in an instant.  As a Colonist/Sole Survivor, death has been following UJ nearly her whole life.  One day it will find her.  And on that note, I found the perfect song for her.

I agree. For example, there's a mod that adds a wedding for a Cousland and Alistair in DAO. Well done, but I'd never use it. It was enough that my Warden was engaged to him and they got married in an epilogue, I don't really want to see all that. In fact, the whole marriage thing was kinda cheesy IMO even without the wedding mod.

I don't really know if my Shepards have anything planned as of yet, haven't thought that far. I don't really see Adele settling down though (as in staying in one place long, not that she's gonna up and dump Garrus when she gets bored xD), but Devon as an Earthborn would probably want to settle down at some point with Kaidan, have a family, all those sorts of things she never had growing up.

I don't need a wedding for my Shepards, happily riding off into the sunset with their LIs is enough for me.  Where they go from that point on I can use my imagination for.

Yeah, which is why I prefer a more open ending in that regard. Not everyone's Shepard will want to get married or have kids or whatever, so it's more economical to just have an ending that doesn't specify any details like that.

Madeline has come to terms with the fact that there may be no "happy end" to her story. She is a warrior and there is no limit to how much she may be asked to give or sacrifice for those she has sworn to protect.

She would love to have something perminent with Kaidan and kids of her own however, and holds onto a bit of childhood optimisum in this regard.

She does know that being a warrior is her first and only destiny. A destiny that she cannot escape, one that will follow her across the galaxy no matter where she tries to settle down.

@marriage: I was avoiding to read other posts before I answer myself.

Marge doesn't think formalities are more important than true feelings. There's something romantic in sacred vows thou, but for her, contracts seem to have inherent fragility, they can be broken or canceled (cookie for anyone who sees a reference). That said, marriage isn't a proof of anything for her, thou a little girl in her wants a silent, military wedding.

On the side note, I've finished my FemShep (a Shenko, let's be honest) Flux vid, can't upload atm it cuz my love is doing heroics now, but it came out quite good like for a newb ;p It's not big thou. 450 pixels, which youtube will shrink to 360, so I'm gonna upload to youtube and mediafire. Soon. Quality will be like on this example.

As others have said, I'd prefer ME3's ending to be fairly vague. Something like the ending from Return of the Jedi would be adequate as an example. That way you're free to make up anything extra yourself. As long as there's no forced sacrifice Shepard to defeat the reapers crap. Make it an option by all means, but don't make it mandatory.

As for my Shepards. Hrist is retiring and is going to enjoy the quiet life with Liara. I've also decided that as a side effect of the Lazarus Project her lifespan will be increased to a few times that of the average human. If Bioware can pull bull**** science out of thin air for story purposes then so can I.

Lenneth, if she survives, would team up Garrus and keep kicking arse throughout the galaxy.
