 *Liara, battle-torn and bruised*

Shepard: Liara, what the hell hapened, where are the others?
Liara: Shepard...I'm sorry...the Citadel...the reapers destoryed it and everyone on it
S: What!?
L: Tali and Garrus...they did not make it...we....we fought long and hard Shepard, they died proud.
S: LOL, LONG AND HARD

What do you cats think this means, darker but funnier. I can't really imagine it, since the galaxy is under siege and such.

We'd have to play the game to figure that out.

Humor is often the best remedy. Good way to relieve stress. Probably just wittier banter between squad mates.

Miranda: The Salarian homeworld is burning, Shepard. The planetary mantle cracked and molten rock is pouring across the continents.
Shepard: How many Reapers did they take down?
Miranda: Just over a dozen.
Shepard: HEY I GOT YOUR NOSE! *runs away*

Mordin:  Shep... Shepard.  My planet...
Shepard:  HEY MORDIN!  GUESS WHAT! *slaps Mordin across the face*  YOU GOT MIRANDA'S NOSE!
Mordin:  Damn it, you're an ****.

When I think Dark and funny, I think of coping-mechanism someone subconsiously employs to save his mental sanity.
Like Sam Fisher in Splinter Cell. Dark settings (literally), a lot of violence that marks his life and yet he's always good to make peeps squirm and his interrogations (the old ones) are pure comedy.

I suppose we can expect more funny party banter like BW managed in Lotsb. Now the skycar bit was a tight situation, yet Liara and Shepard had a very funny conversation. Same with the scene at the door to the shadow broker base.

Also the humorous comments made by joker upon asking him 'I assume everything is going well up here' is something I consider funny.

I suppose we can expect more of that stuff, although as we draw near the final decisive confrontation I think we'll see less funny scenes as well.

Shep: Liara, you ok?
Liara: Better than the Mako.

I actually laughed at this.

If it's more like this, it'll be pro.

I hope we have funnier dialogue, as long as it fits the character (i.e. Garrus always cracks jokes... Thane tends to be unintentionally funny, Tali is surprisingly sarcastic, etc).

Soldiers tend to employ a lot of gallows humour. I'm down for it.

An weird choice. I'm also interested to see how that's going to turn out.

Did you see the gameplay demo? When the Atlas drops Mordin does something pretty comical. He tries to sneak a peak out the window. At least I found it humorous.

I think humor will be implemented at appropriate times kind of like how Alister gives humor in DA depending on what you say to him. He'll give humor to sometimes cheer you up other times to detach from the situation.

Andersen: Shepard, you must leave! There's no time! Soon the REapers will have blockaded our entire system. The Council must be warned!
Shepard: Just need to take a dump then we can go.

i'm sure that the banter will be funnier. kind of like the liara-shepard banter on the shadow broker ship. "PLEASE DON'T GIVE THE MERCS IDEAS"

and of course, we can expect the same comedy out of garrus, tali, and whoever our krogan squadmate is.

I guess we will see. They said ME2 was the darker chapter, but I thought ME1 was far darker and not just because it had crappy lighting.

There's a scene during the Collector Ship mission in ME2 where a program attempts to infest the Normandy's computers and the first blatant sign is a pop-up of a Collector's head and upper body. Seth Green's Joker deadpans "uh, that can't be good" in such a dry, witty way that it wins me over every time.

It's very much 'my' style of writing. More of this, the better.

I don't really get how they're going to do it. How are they going to inject humor into the war with the Reapers?

How did John Crichton wise-crack his way through a devastating wormhole weapon capable of destroying the galaxy? How did Han Solo make light of the Death Star? How did the survivors of Firefly/Serenity's darker ordeals deliver witty banter to one-another during a suicidal scenario? How did Paul Jonas constantly manage to mock his poor lot in life throughout Tad Williams' Otherland book series? How did Julian Bashir blurt humorous musings at the height of the Dominion War in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine?

Desperate times often call for desperate humor in the eyes of many characters, fake and otherwise. When the galaxy's in flames, you can bet your bottom Reaper my Shepard's going to be joining in the fun.

Usually stories have a rather specific tone that they follow, sometimes certain scenes can subtily change times, but for the most part one tone remains dominant in a story, this important as tone almost always defines how a book/ game/ movie feels and how it is perceived by the readers/ players/ audiance .

Now, stretching out a tone so far that you can reach two ends, or jumping from one tone to another isn't a very good thing to do as a writer, because then it's harder for the audiance to understand watch going on or more specificily what the story is about and how they should feel about it.
