TBH, Liara is probably more useful to Shep in her new capacity of information broker than she is as a crewmember.
Also, since she's all ruthless now like her mom but without the excuse of being indoctrinated, I'm slowly accepting the idea that I may have to shoot her in the head at some point in ME3, especially if she is playing me and wants Shep to knock off SB so that she can take his place.

Liara's ruthlessness appears to be just a shell, a necessity in her new line of work. But yeah, being able to execute her would be cool. Bioware already did it once with Wrex on Virmire.

The best games are those so morally ambiguous that you have to question your own morality after playing.

I wonder if one achievment is "cheater" lol

[crimzontearz]

oh good god Bioware PLEASE no decisional Achievements like



"cheater": complete The Lair of the Shadow Broker breaking up with Liara



or



"A Fire Rekindled": Complete Lair of The Shadow Broker reuniting with Liara



I'd have having to play it two or three times just to get all the possible branching achievements

Or, you know, decide not to spend your time earning meaningless achievements.

eh...when it comes to Mass Effect I'm a completionist I just do not like the tactic Bioware used of having decisional achievements

I inclined to believe that she will not be recruitable. This is because the shadow broker seems like a very important figure in the ME universe, it wouldn't make much sense to kill him/her off in a DLC we can choose to or not to buy. Also I'm not sure we even confront the shadow broker in this DLC he/she is very resource I'm thinking by the time we get to his/her lair he/she will either be gone or there will be a decoy set. Either or Liara would just go back to trying to find the shadow broker.

Why not? I doubt her taking over as SB will have any weight.(meaningful impact, i.e. life/death consequence)



I don't see any good enough reasons not to have her join Shepard.

uhhhhhh because if she joins shepard then she can die in the suicide mission and if she DOES die in the suicide mission then she is not in ME3 which is what Bioware wants (meaning her being in ME3)

I end up getting 'em all too, but in ME2 it's because I just wanted to try out all the stuff available in the game.  But if you don't really care about seeing an alternate outcome to some part of the story, and the achievement itself doesn't provide a bonus like most did in ME1, then why bother?  It sounds you actually do care about the alternate outcomes though, so if there happens to be an achievement attached to it, what's the issue?

What?!

I was under the impression that this was post SM, besides even if pre SM it's not like BW can't fix her survival.

one of the outcomes might imply me breaking up with Tali rendering that entire playthrough useless for the purpose of importing it.....I guess I could save BEFORE LotSB  and then try all the possible outcomes and pick the best one in one final re-load

Hmm from over in the News forum, I quote:
"Hi Everyone

We are pleased to announce this morning that the next Mass Effect 2 DLC episode The Lair of the Shadowbroker
will be available on the PC and Xbox 360 on Tuesday September 7 and
will cost 800 BioWare/Microsoft points. Not only is this an excellent
adventure through Illium and the shadowbroker's secret lair, this new
DLC will add the Shadow Broker intel center, new research, and five new
achievements – and give fans from Mass Effect 1the chance to continue a
relationship with Liara."

So if you can continue your LI, which I didn't choose as a FemShepard, surely she is going to be on the team from then on, or if not that, then ME3? Still, we will know by September 7th.

[Loerwyn]

I must admit that I find it hard to believe Liara will be LotSB only. Even if she's not a squad member, I can't imagine her not having some function on the Normandy. She might not hang with Shepard in his/her room, of course, but at the same time there's nothing to stop BioWare adding a new room for her (although I think she should "live" with Shep).

Well, it's not out yet and there's probably more info to come, so we'll see.

[Esbatty]

Whats with the death to Tali/Liara posts? Damn... if got all of my female squaddies killed I'd have to swing by Omega or the Citadel and pick up some Serrice and see what Chakwas is up to

[Prince of Kemet]

This is a little bit off topic but it does concern Liara. Has anyone considered the fact that the Asari council member might be Liara's father. Think about..in ME when you present the evidence to the council, we get a big clue. Remember when audio file was played and Benezia started talking? The Asari counselor immediately stated that she recognized that voice. How would she be able to recognize Benezia almost immediately....unless...she knew her personally? I'm just saying, don't rule her out as potentially being Liara's father.

[thepaladin1]

because benezia was well respected among the asari? You haven't met obama but you know who he is kind of thing.

[havoc373]

i dont think she'll become a squad member, but what i do see happaning is liara taking over TIM role as the person who gives you big missions. but i hope she does that from the normandy and not in her office on illium

[Eradyn]

If the hidden Liara audio files are anything to go by, she won't be joining the squad at the end of the DLC. Granted, there's always some measure of hope that things change...maybe you can convince her afterward...but I doubt it if she takes on the SB's role.

I'm cool with that idea, so long as she's doing it in Shepards room. lol.

[BigC-VI]

No, but there will be a chance to continue the relationship. Im assuming she will be on the ship.

[Burningwolf]

Continue the relationship...

Another Kiss...or a Hi how yah doing....can be done anywhere...no need for them to put her on the ship.

But then again this is the most expensive dlc Bioware has put out for either game(Not including the $15.00/free with new purchase dlc's)So I expect a LOT from this.To the quality of a character intro mission and loyalty mission from the first game.



None of this ..30 min of content stuff...but thats just me...we will see..

Bioware specified that they are still following the line of thought that poeple are still playing ME2

only in the future they will start thinking "people are done with ME2, let's abridge the story archs"

LOTSB will most probably be done BEFORE the suicide mission and therefore Liara will not be recruitable and no Bioware will not fix her survival because otherwise  there is no point to the suicide mission at all
