Er...
rubynorman's Profile
Gender: Female


In any case...why is it weird for it to feel right to a guy to play a femshep? I'm a guy, I play femshep because it felt right for the character. I always choose my characters based on what feels right and that tends to vary between male and female; gut instinct mainly. In Oblivion and Skyrim I always, always play male; I've tried to make female characters but it doesn't feel right to me. Similarly I've played a half-series playthrough of Mass Effect with a maleshep (mainly to get ME2 paramour achievement) and I just can't complete it because it "feels wrong" to me.

Thats why I was really irritated by that comment a few pages back implying that the only reason guys would play femshep and romance Liara is for "hawt lesbian sex scenes". No...I play a femshep because it felt right. I romanced Liara because THAT felt right as well. And thats the end of it really; they make a cute couple. That's not to say the sex scenes AREN'T hot, but thats why I made my decisions...because it felt right...not for FemshepxLiara sex. We're not ALL shallow.


On the subject of the ending. By the goddess I just want them to fix that mess...


I hope that wasn't my comparision from a few pages back, if so, I'm sorry. I just wanted to give the best awnser as to why fshep/liara is more popular( and really, it's just variables that have added up.)

I know not all of you are that shallow, but the General Populace on the other hand..

So for you broShep players... I need some help. How is Meer as a renegade? Does that work with a Liara romance?

(I've been an all-femShep gal, but I want to branch out, and while I can do a Traynor/FemShep or Kelly/Shep just fine, I apparently CANNOT romance Liara as femShep. I start, I stare, I BEAT A SPEEDY RETREAT TO HIDE BEHIND JOKER).


You're missing out, Hale and Allis have alot of voice chemistry IMO.

Meer IMO does a better Paragon, and  has a better voice chemistry with Tali,Miranda, and Ashly. He has grown on me a little, but he just can't compare to Ricardo's (French V.A) Broshep IMO.

This scene in french is <3 <3   (Better with a custom broshep of course.)

This shows that BioWare aren't ENTIRELY embedded to their space-magic-artistic-integrity

Incorrect. It shows that Bioware is doing more voice work, so for all you know they could be planning for Fallout NV-style epilogue slides (where each VA briefly narrates what happened to the character).


You say this like it's a bad thing :P. Or maybe you don't. Still, looking forward to hearing Liara tell us what became of Liara.

Thanks.  It's been pointed out that my original intent was not coming through in the chapter, and there's no way to salvage it as-is, so a complete re-writing I go!


Don’t rewrite, start a new one!  :happy: I think Returned still works perfectly if you just end it where it is.


I'm not rewriting the entire story, just the next chapter, don't you worry!  :wizard:  This arc had been planned out start to finish, but when I made changes to the beginning I forgot to also modify the middle and end to account for them.  Thematically, it no longer was doing what I wanted it to do, so I have to rework this latest chapter in order to keep things on track.  Should have something ready by the end of next week.

I've been wondering about something regarding Liara, Asari, humans and their biotic usage.
In the game you, as Shepard, can use biotics with a only a slight pause between each usage (the cooldown in ME2 og ME3). This is possible no matter if you are a sentinel, adept or vanguard. The same goes for all of your biotic squadmembers. During cutscenes you also see frequent biotics use: for example Liara where you see her use two 'throws' almost in immediate sucession during the chase for Vasir in LotSB. (  ).
You also see Samara produce biotics rapidly in the cutscenes during ME2 and ME3.

In the three novels (mostly the second and third) written by Drew Karpyshyn it is mentioned often that biotics have to charge their implants in order to produce a proper biotic attack.
In the beginning of the third book, Retribution (p. 25) it even says: "For one thin, contrary to what popular action vids portrayed, generating biotic fields took time and focus; it wasn't something that happened instantly."
Later in the book, 
(p. 60) , it says: "The asari didn't have enough time to gather her power for a truly devastating attack." So the biotic "charging" also goes for asari who are known to be powerful biotics.

It seem to be some sort of inconsistency between novel and game. But I'm also thinking that maybe Liara, Shepard and Samara are very powerful biotics that are capable of producing biotics fields rapidly. It might also just be a design choice to make the game more playable even though this doesn't explain the quick use of biotics during some cutscenes.

What do you guys think? Game design choice? Powerful biotics from Liara and co.?
I think that it is a mix of wherether or not the user is powerful enough to unleash biotics rapidly but also a design choice, in the games, to make biotics fun to use.

I think it's like you said - it's a mix between just game elements to make it more fun for the player, and more visually interesting too. The LotSB cutscenes, after all, would've been less exciting if Liara had to stop and charge to throw out another biotic attack, especially since you do it all game without really waiting.

And if the gameplay had you charge like that, to make it consistent? Then it slows the game down and is less fun for the player.

So they can let you and Liara and such throw out more biotics, but they can also allow it lore-wise because they are simply such powerful biotics that they can get away with it. I mean, look at how much of Liara's skills are devoted to reducing her recharge time on powers so she can rapid fire them, in ME3. They really are driving home that she is an *incredibly* powerful biotic - same for Samara, especially with the Long Walk segment - and how both Liara and Samara can hover a bit with biotics.

But you'll often find the novels and comics have inconsistencies between them and the games. They really aren't all that well written and you shouldn't get too wound up about it.

The sentence regarding the implants is only valid for human biotics. Asari are biotics by nature, they don't have implants to strengthen their powers. Humans for example have the L2 implants (or is it L3 in the new game? Mixing up fanfic and game again I think) and have all the negative side effects like headaches and such.
That asari need charge time to power their attacks...that I can understand. I guess a good parallel would be the time mages need to cast their spells for example. First they have to mutter the spell and then unleash the attack. Asari basically have to charge up the attack and then unleash it. 

The inconsistency that you see between cutscenes and all....I don't think it is too bad. Even in LotSB you see Liara quickly gather her strength to pull the ceiling down onto the old SB in the last fight cutscene. It's just a tiny pause in her action but it is there. It's certainly not as long as the in-game charge times but that is a gameplay issue. What's the fun in having an imba biotic in your team that goes pew pew all the time without a break :P

I'm sorry if that wasn't clear but it wasn't meant to be a complaint about inconsistencies. I understand that inconsistencies happen and I'm not bothered about them when they are small/could be explained by something else, as in this case.
It was more to start a debate about biotics and how they work. :)

I like to think about how stuff (biotics, omnitools, space travel etc) in the ME-universe works/would work IRL. This is mainly because BioWare made such a good job of describing the fundamentals of the universe in a way that seems plausible or not totally far-fetched like some other Sci-Fi franchises do.

Regarding asari not having implants: I think I recall from somewhere that asari also need implants, but the implants doesn't have to be so advanced as they are in humans, because of the biotic nature of Thessia and asari. Unfortunately I can't seem to find my source anywhere.
The Wiki also says that asari doesn't need them, so it's proberly just me with a bad memory :pinched:

The implants Shepard has is L5 (adept and vanguard). Kaidan has L2 implants.

It was, but it's ok. It's just like...gah. Bit of a pet hate of mine and it's like nails on the blackboard of my soul when it comes up.

Basically I just get a little annoyed when I see people getting all weirded out by the fact some guys prefer playing as femshep and they start looking for an "underlying reason". That reason tends to come in two forms, one is the assumption that you're gay and the other is that you're doing it for some base reason (either to stare at the character's arse or to see the "hawt lesbian sex" scenes).

The very idea that I simply find myself empathising and "connecting" better with female characters in some games than the male versions of the same just seems totally alien to quite a lot of people. Guys aren't supposed to identify with female characters, clearly, otherwise they're probably gay. *facepalm*

I think asari can use their biotics without implants since the game goes out of its way to say that asari are natural biotics, but I do think that asari can choose to have implants that increase the strenght of their biotics.

Shepard no matter what biotic class, was a L3 in ME1. Once Cerberus rebuild them they were upgraded to a L5(adepts and vaguard Shepard have an even more advanced version of the L5) which seems to be a prototype.

Kaidan has L2 implants, they are old and cause a lot of problems. Shepard uses L3 in ME1 and L5 in ME2 and 3.

Asari do not need implants, but they often use amplifiers, perhaps that's what you were thinking of?

I usually take the games over the novels. 
While I do realise that somethings in the game-play needs to work in a particular way, on the whole I would say that biotics can be used both faster (as in firing) and more rapidly (as in recharge-speed) than shown in the novels, especially by someone as skilled as Samara, Liara and Shepard (Adept at least).
It is also my impression that even if she does not in the actual gameplay that Liara (and possibly Shepard) fights primarily or even nearly exclusively with biotics, which would be outright impossible if it was as draining and time-consuming as seen in the novels.

Perhaps it is simply because I prefer to think of biotics as a cool and a viable weapon that can be used without being crippled by restrictions and problems, but I still believe that while some biotics would have difficulty doing more than lifting a book others can effectively use it is their primary or even only weapon in combat. 
But then again it might just be like everything in real life; for some it is near impossibly and for others it is as natural as breathing.
Essentially I believe that powerful naturals like Liara and Shepard could fight as fast and well with their biotics as in the game.

Where did you get that? All races with biotics are capable of using them without implant or amplifiers they are just so much more effective with them than without.

We know that asari use biotic amps, and in order for amps to work they must work in consert with the implants, as such it would only be logical that Asari not only use implants but being an inherently biotic race would likely have perfected the science, for asari physiology at least.

Before ME1 humans used L2 implants that coursed severer side-effects, by the time of ME1 L3s have been developed that while not powerful as the L2s have just about no side effects, by the time of ME2 (i.e. during the two years Shepard was dead) humans have developed L4 and L5 implants, which is if I remember correctly both side-effect free and considerably more powerful and can be used with greater finesse.

Edit: ninja'ed several times about that last one.

No, implants are not necessary to use amps. Asari do not use implants because they were granted natural biotics by the Protheans, humans need implants to use biotics with any kind of efficency. Both asari and humans would need to have connection ports implanted to use amps however.

Saturday morning at the start of a 3 day bank holiday weekend, an engagement party for friends tonight. Coffee in hand, 5 chapters of Lili's fic and PMC's uploaded 3 or 4 since I last checked in there too.

Does it get any better than this? Can even stomach the disappointment of the delay to Returned's next chapter :D

I got it from the game. In ME1 Kaidan himself tells you the story about the negative side effects of implants in humans. As far as I remember the Codex and the game itself it is stated that at least initially humans needed implants to use biotics simply because it did not exist naturally. There were these stories about eezo accidents to increase the chance of babies being born with the capability of using biotics...with the help of implants.
I know that there is a progression in implant quality over the games, L5 even, but that doesn't change the fact that humans need these implants to use biotics. Thanks for the reminder on the lack of side effects with better implants though. I forgot about that.

Regarding the asari I base my statement also on the codex and what you hear in-game. They are a race of natural biotics...be it because of huge eezo resources on Thessia or whatever other reason. It has also been stated that as they evolved in such an environment that the usage of biotics works far better for them than for humans...thus no implants necessary. Amplifiers...sure....but seeing as biotics result from a manipulation of mass effect fields you don't necessarily need implants to use amplifiers.
As Tyrannic stated, ports where these amplifiers go into, maybe that might be necessary. I guess this depends on whether the amplifiers interact directly with whatever source of the biotics or just the outcome.

I would think that in some generations even humans might not need implants anymore.

Another race that has the ability to use biotics naturally are the krogans (Wrex comes to mind, for example). They don't use implants...also if I remember correctly the number of biotics using krogans is rather small.

Where do you get that? being a race of natural biotics does not mean that they can use biotics without implants simply that every single member of the species have the potential to be a biotic unlike humans where only a few individuals have that potential.

"Biotics manipulate mass effect fields using dozens of element zero nodules within their nervous system that react to electric stimuli from the brain. Bio-amps[/b] allow biotics to synchronize the nodules so they can form fields large and strong enough for practical use. Amplifiers can improve a specific discipline or talent.
An implant is a surgically-embedded interface port into which amps are "plugged in". They are also known as 'wetware' because of their cybernetic nature. In humans, the implant is usually placed at the base of the skull for convenient access, though the user must be careful to keep it free of contaminants.
Implant ports can fit a variety of amps, and there is a growing market for modifications and add-ons. The finest quality implants and amps are manufactured by asari artisans, but the Alliance's L3 implants - first deployed in 2170 - are a significant step forward."

What you are saying is correct, however the asari are natural biotics because of Prothean meddling.

Are you sure the krogan have biotics naturally by the way? I didn't know that.

You are confusing the L-series implants that all human biotics need with the implant ports that all biotics need to use amps. Asari do not need implants to use biotics, but they do need to implant connection ports if they are to use amps, and amps are important for heavy use of biotics.

Yep. They are not many but the few that exist can use it naturally. At least I haven't found anything stating otherwise about it. Please correct me if I am wrong.
In the first ME book for example Anderson is attacked by a krogan that is a biotics user. As I said...haven't seen anything that states otherwise so I think it's correct to assume that some of them can use it naturally.

It's so hard to keep up with all the small details. Especially as things change inbetween games and then there are the books and comics and details being spewed out over twitter and whatnot. =]

Everytime I state something I really am not sure if I am mixing up things that I read in a fanfic with actual lore facts. Good that there's the forum and this thread specifically to discuss these things :happy:

Anybody have something new to talk about?


What would be Liara's favorite ice cream flavor? Or do you think she is more into frozen yogurth?

I can see her as a strawberry or simply berry kind of person. Not so much chocolate, but I don't know why not :D

Asari don't need implants to use biotics but they can choose to have it. I remember after Grissom Academy Mission, Shepard delivered an implant protocol to an Asari in the Citadel's hospital. She said they just need to change it a little then it can work on Asari.

Glad I was able to explain myself. =]

Well a small question, since Liara uses amplifiers (at least if we go by ME1 game-mecanics) where do you guys think that asari amps are located?, humans have them at the base of the skull but we never hear about other races.

Edit: top
Even if it is sad there is something I like about this picture.

Edit: top, one moment.


knowing they have nearly the same biology as humans I guess it'd be located in the same area
