So in DA Alistair can breakup with your elven character because she is an elf and it would seem bad to have an elf as his mistress or queen so what if this happened in ME3 with Sheps LI? I could see Tali doing this because there is so little evidence to support a human/quarian relationship is ok by quarian societal standards but what if others could do it as well? If it wasn't a for the heck of it thing and it was used in a way that either propelled the story or was used in a this is for the greater good sort of way would fans support such an outcome?

I just thought while heartbreaking it was an interesting twist in the story that could be used to propel your character to make that final sacrifice or used to have your character be selfish and not think of others when that moment came. Of course if BW repeated such an idea I'd like more character development then 2 dialogue moments (once when news is delivered the other in camp if you talk to them).

I'd prefer to see Tali come down with a fatal dose of what would be a minor ailment to humans. Teach the Talimancers a valuable lesson. Be careful what you wish for, you just may get it.

Shepards situation is different but certainly some LI's might feel quite differently once the dust settles and life returns to normal. Although It's more likely Shepards going to die in ME3 or do a Revan.

Tali is infatuated with Shepard. She was when she was still a "kid" in ME1. In ME2 if you follow that line she is nervous. But she jumps on you like a Tigress in the "romance" scene.
And despite her side effects she can't wait to do it again. Although if it came to a choice of choosing her people or Shepard, hard to say because of the exile variable. But I think she would choose a planet she could live on normally. And any Shepard would want that for her, even if they had to break up.

I wouldn't mind if it was something that could happen, depending on how you play out the romance in ME3, but I'd be right pissed off if it was something that would happen (no matter what). Even with Ali there are ways (or a way at least) around it, not always obvious the first go but they're there.

I think something negative should happen with a LI. In both games it is a seemingly easy move from a crush to a relationship in no time. No relationship is that easy, there should be more drama and bumps a long the way rather than this fairytale love story.

The games are not that long.... Still I have seen it done much better in other games, some even made by Bioware.
Trying to get Viconia to put out while at the same time maintaining Paladin status..

I think the crap games have written into them that include "Not being together is for the greater good" and you have no power over it is... crap, as I said above

[Blackbelt749]

Garrus' romance plot was set up to be a one night stand. Now, when they got there, the words and emotions that Garrus used and had showed that it was possible that he wanted more with Femshep.



So there's one ME2 LI that might not continue into ME3. As for romances that deny you...Samara?



I liked the idea of Samara denying Shepard. You can't always get what you want and it was done very well. So as long as the writing is done well, sure!

When it comes to RPGs crap games are the ones that let the player do whatever they like without regards to the wider situation.
You may be the "star" of the show, but you are not in control of everything.

That's not a romance, really.  That's Jack sleeping with him because she sees it as the strings/the catch for his help on Pragia.  He's trading in his favor, as she sees it, and she obliges him, but it makes him just like everyone else, and she pretty much hates everyone else because of the ugliness she's seen from everyone in her life. 

Visual evidence: in the rough scene, she's throwing him around and gutpunching him with relish; in the romance scene she keeps her hands over her head, probably because she's afraid of hurting him.  (She only touches him when he guides her hands around his waist.)

As far as the OT goes, breakups would be awesome (in a bad way).  IMO, some of the romances don't really seem sustainable, and yes, Tali is one of them.  Would Shepard really be happy living in a suit all the time?  Would Tali be happy away from her people (and living in a suit all the time)?  Even Liara...things are kind of dicey with her new job, and if I'm not mistaken, Shepard's lifestyle makes her miserable because of its uncertainty.  She wants a white picket fence scenario with her man always at her side, and I'm not sure that's something Shepard could ever deliver.  (Or would want to deliver...I get a wanderlust vibe from him.)

I was going for the could not would happen. In my setup above there would be ways to avoid it . Like you said not obvious the first playthrough but you could figure them out either on your own or via walkthroughs and then when that moment comes you could convince your LI that they don't have to stop seeing you because of whatever their reason would be for demanding a separation in the first place.

Since getting Tali exiled is the 'normal', non-exceptional way of keeping her loyalty and enabling her romance, I don't think she's going to be that dependent on going back to her people.

[Aedan_Cousland]

The Tali romance shouldn't have a happily ever after ending.

How could it when Tali can't even have sex with Shepard without risking her health? IMO the two characters are better off as friends than as lovers.

Now, where did I put my hat?

Honestly, those of us who stayed true to the ME1 romances got a taste of this in ME2 between Ilium and Horizon. And, I don't recall that anyone, even those who moved on to ME2 romances, was very happy with that treatment.
