Renee is of the opinion that Garrus is one of her closest friends remaining after her 'resurrection,' and doesn't want him to go over the edge. Seeing Sidonis self-flagellate is enough.

Knowing what will happen if she fails is hard enough-but she's trying to keep control on people around her just so she remains the symbol the galaxy needs.

Edit:  Top of the page FemShep.

It's interesting the pictures you can get if you're lucky.

I keep on making and remaking this one character and she never looks remotely alike in each incarnation. I think I've finally settled on her looks, lol. I also did a bit of texture editing and brought back the heavy Ursa armor for her







Hilariously creepy. Lulz Vanguards.

It's actually Thane that admits he has feelings for her after that. Which at that point Shepard can tell him she does, too.

So the "I want you, Thane" bit is more of an obvious hint for dimmer players? <_<

Augh! playing through ME and of course you eventually get to Virimire and just sit there staring at the 2 options for minutes. /tear

Yeah, when I finally actually picked that choice I was just baffled at how the two cold even be considered remotely the same. Well, I'm glad she didn't actually say "I want you, Thane" because that would have been awful.

@Quietness: Yes, that always hurts. Worse, I find myself getting through everything on the Normandy so the background music will change. Supposedly, it's called the "Love Theme" or similar. It sounds more like the "So you left someone behind... you monster" theme.

@Aislinn, Yuki: Oh. Okay, I'll have to try that line with another Shep sometime. All the dialogues looked cheesy for them all, so Kyrie ended up friend-zoning everyone. Oops. Oh well, maybe Joker will be available in ME3.

Re: Makeup. Not sure. My initial Femshep didn't really have any, but I noticed some screenshots where her upper eyelashes seemed to... float away from the eyes. Not sure if that was because of missing eyeshadow or since it was an import from ME1. The Femsheps I've setup for future ME1 playthroughs using the ME2-ME1 converter have settings that look subtle. I hope.

Not very knowledgeable on the subject. Wore some for a school play or two when I was younger. Hated it. How do you ladies deal with that day by day? Okay, stage makeup is probably thicker, but still...

"I want you, Thane" is an incredibly misleading dialogue option.

[Cyansomnia]

I find it incredibly sad that terrible dialogue wheel paraphrasing is keeping people from trying out Thane's romance. It's actually quite touching, which is why I love it so much.

The first time I did it, I went on faith that it wasn't actually what she was going to say. I breathed a sigh of relief when I found out that was the case. I hope they do a better job with stuff like that in the future.

Well, I have never been able to make a non-eyeliner Shep work, but upon waking up from the Lazarus Project I was able to give Jessica the gray eye shadow rather than the black.  It makes her look more non-made-up without reaching full on mutant status.


"Did you just call me baldy?"


"Hmm... shackled AI, you say?  Hey, EDI, have you ever heard of a little thing called the stock market?"

Jessica would never classify herself as vain, but she wore her helmet most of the time to hide her shaved head ("I look like I just walked out of a concentration camp!") until she could get the dermal regenerator in the medbay up and running, and as soon as she could get to the Citadel, she got herself some mascara.  I modded her though Gibbed to remove the actual eye shadow, but darken the eyeliner.

I rarely wear makeup, because of my job.  It would just melt off my face, because I work in a kitchen where it's hotter than hell a majority of the time.  The most I wear is some chapstick.  I try to take very good care of my skin, though.

I think Holly would feel makeup isn't necessary and a waste of time.  I do see her taking care in her appearance, though.

I imagine the complaints of stealth romancing in ME1 were on the writers' minds, so they wanted to make the intent very clear that you were pursuing the romantic path at that point. Unfortunately, because I didn't want to sound desperate for a shag, I managed not to romance Thane in my first playthrough in spite of my intentions to do so. This is because if you don't pick "I want you, Thane," you've just blown the one opportunity the writers give you to begin the romance.

It was as if they wanted that option to convey intent, but they were also using the paraphrase system used for all dialogue. Compare with Alpha Protocol which takes the approach of only displaying the intent rather than trying to paraphrase the dialogue choice. Or the upcoming DA2 system, which I get the impression is supposed to be a bit of both.

Anyway, so I spent the entire game trying to get my Shepard to not sound like she was throwing herself at Jacob, and it ruined the relationship she could have had with Thane because of poor paraphrasing. Which I bet amused the writers, and it amuses me, but it was the sort of amusement they left in that led to poor gameplay.

[mellifera]

In reality Adele would not wear eyeshadow to combat. Maybe a bit during downtime, but not the heavy black eyeliner/shadow combo she has in the game, haha. The lip stuff is perfect though, it's not overly shiny and doesn't look like makeup as much as a glossy lip balm or something. In real life I mostly only wear light foundation and chapstick, and I wouldn't wear foundation at all if I were more confident.



And yeah, I imagine that line is a poor solution to the stealth-romance problem. It kinda sucks.

[Cyansomnia]

I agree with you, Pacifien. I'm sure they were trying to make it obvious you were pursuing the romance. The option was just incredibly jarring and off-putting, which is why people have a hard time getting past it.

Fortunately, I took the plunge, so to speak.

Which is why I think DA2's <3 + Paraphrase will be much better.

*crosses fingers that ME3 adopts that feature*
*also hopes they drop Paragon/Renegade for being an inconsistent mess, but that's more of pipe dream*

Frankly, at times. I am utterly convinced the writers intentionally got together and compiled some of the worst lines imaginable just for the pure hilarity of screwing with the fanbase. It is how I justify "but the priiize" being greenlighted, xD.



I do recall Femshep having a line similar to "I want you" in the Thane romance, or perhaps I am thinking of another. Regardless, this is why I always rewrite off the first file with a "Yeah, probably going to be redoing this." That wheel is deceiving at times.

[upsettingshorts]

I excuse that one as awkward former Corsair jargon.

So while it's obviously not a great line, and really had a way of putting a lot of people off, I can see why Jacob Taylor would say it without it being some troll attempt on behalf of the writer (Lukas Kristjanson). Heck, I've said really dumb stuff to women before too. Maybe I can just relate.

Well.. I can definitely say that line with Thane pretty much dissuaded my FemShep from furthering the romance plot. Luckily there weren't similar issue with the paraphrasing for the Garrus romance. But I'll have to give Thane a chance next time, knowing how badly done the paraphrasing is now. And I was going to suggest that tone indicators weren't needed but turns out they are.

Hmm... i was thinking...



This could be the best casual dress that is available, if not for those "long plumber gloves" and SR2 labels. Maybe one label could be acceptable... with narrower borders...


But still... Looking good, Rayne

It's the only ship uniform without a Cerberus symbol, the Canderous Ordo outfit just didn't really fit my FemShep, and the black dress is best for formal occasions. I'll have to see about modding the files to open more options.

[Bourne Endeavor]

All this discussion of Femshep romances reminded me of the "secret" romance. There is simply none better.

[mellifera]

I'm not really a fan of that casual outfit. My Shepards usually wear the standard crew uniform, even though it has the Cerberus logo on it. Though I did mod in an outfit with the same shape that isn't Cerberus, so that's what my mainShep wears now.

I finished LotSB, bringing my canon's second (and true) run to a close. Well, there's Overlord left but I can't be arsed to do that until I'm really bored because of the damned Hammerhead sections. I'm doing my Liara romancing Shepard next, the end of LotSB is just so much more awesome.



SB's face amuses me here.

The Shadow Broker knows Shepard is an undead cyborg, though 

So I'll go with: "Oh ****, I might lose!"
