You know, people who don't have a sexual/romantic relationship can still care about each other.



Liara can still care about Shep and understand that they don't have the relationship that she originally wanted.

Well there's also the matter of people who recruited Liara after Virmire, knew her for two seconds, died, and awoke to find she'd chased after your body to hell and back. Lol nonlinear plot missions lol. This is why Liara should've been recruited on the Citadel.

Well, these people should feel her actions are less about romance then, as they would have never gotten that far in the dialog with her.

Well, as for the reason Liara goes through so much for Shep (regardless of paragon/renegade), it could be because of her mind-melding with him/her. You see the same sort of obsession/adoration with Shiala (with whom Shepard also mind-melds) if you talk to her again in ME2. Sorry if this has been said before--haven't read the entire thread, but I thought I'd put my two cents in. But, the mind-melding is completely separate from the romance aspect of their relationship. If you didn't romance her, that is. I never do, so I don't know the other side of the story.

(spoiler) And if you run into Gianna Parsoni and you helped her in ME1, and then help her in ME2, she gives you a bit of a hint.

ManShep has the latent potential harem going on, it's kinda funny in a way.

 because of the redemption comics. Although I don't particularly like Liara, i feel that i'm forced to romance her because of the events of redemption. She gives up everything to look for shepard and bring him back to life, but if Shep rejected her in ME1, it seems rather strange that she would do that. Dealing with a speciest organisation, leaving her old life behind and putting her life on the line just so shepard and her could be "Friends" again? It seems that if ash was romanced, it would be going against an established canon.

Is there a justifiable reason why an un-romanced Liara would go out and look for shepard's corpse?

Its the same reason she is on her revenge trip for feron.She feels like she owed shepardt her life and did this for him
because of that.Simple as that.

Yeah, Liara saved Shep in Redemtion.

Shep saved Liara from Saren in ME1.



As I see it Shep doesen´t owe her a damn thing.

You know, I never thought of that. Now I'm kinda mad at myself for helping her because I felt I had to to make up for her finding Shepards corpse rather than treating her like I would every other criminal.

Right, but that's just your take on your Shepard. My Shepard was never in love, since hanging out on the Normandy for a while, having a night of "teh hot secks" before the Ilos and then a few weeks toghether not so much dating but chasing the geth around the galaxy is not particularly enough time to be in love with someone. To have strong feelings for, sure.

That's fair enough for your Shepard, obviously.  Mine wouldn't have sex with someone she didn't love.  But I think the whole point of this is that each of us is free to roleplay Shepard in our own way - we certainly don't feel forced to romance someone in a particular way or to a particular depth (let alone feel forced to romance a particular person, such as Liara).

You know, this is a brilliant point.  Regardless of whether Shepard loves Liara or not - regardless of whether Shepard loves someone else or not - there will always be a connection between Shep and Liara that no one else quite has.  (Apart from, as you say, Shiala.  But Shep and Shiala only melded the once, and you don't really get to spend much time with Shiala - this is assuming one doesn't do Therum after Virmire, of course.)

I too think it that the under current was for the player to choose Liara, not only were most of the events logically pointing towards a special connection between Liara and Shepard, the dialouges and other events were leaning towards that conclusion as well.

When in persuit of Ashley, there was far more easier ways to not only screw up the conversation but out right break from it.

I took the view point of the plot itself and found that Shepard should have went along with Liara just from the shared experinces concerning the Protheon and how Shepard was more open minded to alien races than dwelling on the Pro-Human/Pro Alliance stance that Ashley took.

Secondly, one should remember that as big of a universe this is, beware of the estranged spin offs from Comic Books and Novels because their authors often suddenly go on their own program. Look at the Star Wars universe.

Just like Movie adaptations,  many times they don't consult what was already written.

[MrnDvlDg161]

Anyway... why bother pondering anything that came from ME1? Its been totally thrown out the window and disgarded.



Anyone's spin on it can be seen as a truth because as far as I'm concerned, they took a flamethower and burned it to the roots in exchange for ME2.

Und you began having these feeling vhen?



Seriously. "I am peer pressured by strangers on the internet to do something they can't prove I did or didn't do". Get a helmet.

So in other words, you have fallen in love with Liara?
