I knew it. I just frakin' knew that if I took your advice I wouldn't be able to stop at just chapter 2. Of course I started reading it anyway... so now it's almost six in the morning and my head is again filled with images that will once more haunt me as I struggle to fall asleep.Lizardviking wrote...

'Pretty dark' indeed. I read Holding On to Let Go just before going to sleep yesterday... or trying to go to sleep anyway, it kept me up for quite a while. I'd intended to read its continuation (Broken Bonds and Shattered Dreams), but just looking at its description now, it seems to go to darker places than I'm willing to stomach.
Read to chapter two atleast. I like the way the Illium cameo was handled.
Sad the story never got finished, but then again the last chapter you read has Shepard ditch Liara in favor of Miranda. So I am not sure if I wanted to read anymore of it!
Still, it was a good story, hard as it was to see Shep and Liara torn apart by their demons. A shame the story remained unfinished with so much left unresolved.

I'm sure with all the Krogan stuck on Earth,they'll(Haters)get eaten sooner or later.I've really tried to have a LI other than Liara.Only did it once with Tali,and I cheated.Started a Shepard in ME2 just for that.SergeantSnookie wrote...

You know what's pathetic?
This:
Babystuff
Seriously...is this a bad joke or something? I think they saw too many ME baby pictures being posted and thought this might be a grand idea. <_<
I guess I would like this more if they would have omitted the in-game teasing about blue babies. Now it just feels like "Yeah...in your face!"
Edit: spelling!
Considering that people name their kids after video-game characters, is that n7 toddler outfit really that surprising?(At least it's not an N7 miniskirt for toddlers.)
So I was having an xbox live party convo the other night with my Girl-Gamer freinds.( Two of which started ME at ME3) So we eventually got to the romance disscussion(After a long talk on mechanics, storyline, ect.) and the two who started ME3 ended up with Liara.(And they chose Kaiden as the V.S.) So Liara has a rather unique situation with her fandom. I don't think I've ever seen such a situation before..

Umm, what's all this about? Did I miss something?Starts at the end of 1396, but I'll give you a run down. Forgot my Razer Epic at home, had to use a generic, crappy mouse, forgot my Galactic Checklist, which I can't do a 100% run without for ME1, VanguardShep was who the run was for so I couldn't play her because I'm obsessive compulsive and can't take the chance that I'd miss something. But, now I'm home and I've reunitied with my beloved mouse and checklist and now Serra Shepard can continue the fight. Unlike ME3, it's a happy ending.
Still better than the ending to ME3.... sorry I really shouldn't have but I couldnt help myself.
No worries. Neither could I, lol. I just thought, "Happy ending!

I really don't know why some authors go that particular route. Liara is the one character in the story that stays completely loyal to Shep even if you aren't in a relationship with her. I just can't see cheating on her even with the way that Liara was handled in vanilla ME2, if you talk to her enough then you get the line about how she thought Shep would hate her for turning her body over to Cerberus. That particular line speaks makes me know beyone a shadow of a doubt that she loves Shep. Even with her focused on Feron, the dialog doesn't relly reflect that she is in a relationship with him, just wants to correct the injustice that caused him to be captured and tortured for 2 years.

Has Liara been a good or bad influence on your Shepard? If so, how?
For example; Liara reminded Nora Shepard of a dear friend she had when she was growing up on the streets of Old Los Angeles. This friend was a good influence on her and made Nora want to be a better person, instead of the violent rage case she can be at times.

Uhm, soap-opera syndrome?Honestly,I don't know. but it's a common theme (I'm glad Liara drops Shep for good if they go with traynor,cortez or allers.

Liara also gives my Shep a reason to keep on fighting, and fighting hard. Liara certainly has ideas of a very bright future, and it'd be nice to allow that to happen. It's a light at the end of a dark tunnel, basically.
And of course, Liara is just someone my Shepard can count on - she's strong and independent, so Shep doesn't need to constantly dote on her or protect, and she's strong enough to help Shepard when some things get too tough.

Liara helps take the stress off of Serra Shepard. Serra strives to get things done the best she can, morally and objectively. Oftentimes, people don't see what's under the uniform and Liara was the first to try to do so completely. Liara provides an outlet for frustration and exhaustion, when needed. If that's not the case, then they are trying to get to know each other. Serra teases Liara quite a bit.... With this in mind, my Shep's got a nasty wake-up call come ME2.

Yeah, It just a couple of months or weeks and those Shepard kick their LI for another one. They should be single in ME1. Jacob dumped some FemShep after 6 months and and people slap his lover on the face, call him a bastard.
Good influence, she makes my Shep more human. Human have hope and love to fight against all odds. She brings out Alise's true self. Give her a reason to fight. Before meeting Liara, my Shep was a "machine". My Alise Shepard was a spacer and war hero. She is very disciplinal since her parents are in the Alliance, they expect much from her. And she was very lonely in her childhood, no close friends. She must do her best to be the best. She joined the Alliance, just like her parents. She wants to do everything perfectly.IliyaMoroumetz wrote...

And I think without Liara she could have given up in the fight against the Reaper.
Ahh this Shep looks like mine. And her reason to fight is similar to my Shep too

Well, my Shepard was a cold and bitter person before Ilos. Paragon when he needed to be, but otherwise a Renegade to the bone. Earthborn, with no close family or friends, it wasn't until he met Liara that he had a reason to live again, which gradually made him more Paragon as the series progressed.
I always imagined Shepard's "I'm not sure I could do this without you" in the flatterer scene translating to "If it wasn't for you I'd have said screw it all and given up a long time ago.""

On my Shepards definately a good influence. It mainly boils down to how I feel about it in real life. Its not enough to just live or live in the world, you need to have something to come back to and a reason to live for. Liara is that reason for my Shepards.

So I was bored and browsing Deviant Art and I came across this wonderful little gem. By the Goddess too bad this didn't show up on the Shadow Broker Terminal in game after Liara takes over. I could so see this happening in game between Joker and Liara after the vanilla visit in ME2.
I approve.
Edit: What the... ME3 is asking me to redeem an Online Pass.

Was thinking about that new Portal 2 level editor and how Bethesda games have those really awesome creation kits.
I just wish ME had the same, just imagine the possibilities to create in this ME universe.
But that would cost them money and take away from possible future DLC's, so I understand it.
In some other alternate universe there is no need for modding tools as Mass Effect is done to perfection and is revered as the best science fiction game series of all time.

I like this.

Even as a Paragon Shep, Liara is a positive influence on my Shep. She offers him peace and reassurance, and helps him out when he gets really stressed or lost in despair - such as that locker scene in ME1 when the Normandy gets grounded, and constantly checking on him throughout ME3. Without her it's very likely Shep may have lost it and gone over the edge, or just turned into a bad person due to not being able to mentally handle the stress and negative things he has to deal with - he may have turned Renegade, for example.
Liara also gives my Shep a reason to keep on fighting, and fighting hard. Liara certainly has ideas of a very bright future, and it'd be nice to allow that to happen. It's a light at the end of a dark tunnel, basically.
And of course, Liara is just someone my Shepard can count on - she's strong and independent, so Shep doesn't need to constantly dote on her or protect, and she's strong enough to help Shepard when some things get too tough.
I think this sums it up nicely.
Even if my Shepard is primarily paragon (some Renegade lines and interrupts here and there) Liara has a positive influence on him.
LIara is Kaelis' emotional and mental support, the one who gives him hope and a reason to fight beyond mere survival or even victory.
Liara also serves as his moral compass, even if he occasionally has serves as hers as well. She helps him whenever he is feeling broken or lost and restores his hope whenever it is in short supply.
She is the face of everything he fights for, the reminder of everything worth fighitng for; but she is not just a symbol but the one so dear to him that the horros of the war are bearable.
Okay that got a bit melodramatic, but no less true for that
But beyond Shepard, Liara had a good influence on me personally. Before ME1 I always played as evil as evil can get when possible (DA somewhat softened this though).
When I started ME1 I played near explusively renegade and was not even into romance stuff, romanced Ashley by mistake (I didn't even know one could romance), regretted it and did not touch the romance options for the next three-four playthroughs.
By then I had grown increasingly fond of Liara (never disliked her, alwasy one of my favourites simply not really "known" her yet) and finally decided to try a romance option again (I had also personally become considerable more mature since my fist playthrough).
And since then I began playing more and more paragon untill my default became pretty much pure paragon with occasional renegade responses when appropriate.
