You've got to be kidding me, they cut that out? O_o What a ****ing shame.

Now, would've been pretty cool if they had added it in, and also incorporated some reference to your love interest. Like Anderson being like "You'd be a great dad, and Liara (Ashley / whomever) would be a great mom" etc.

Awh, so much default hate! She's lubly!

My first import got botched, looked nothing like my 1/2 save, so I just went for the default. It's a shame, kinda liked my old one.


I actually always use the default models. The only character editor with which I managed to created a visually pleasant character without plastic looking skin was Skyrim's one. (the fact that I created a reptilian helped overcome the uncanny valley :D )

Yes, a design decision more bizzare than the endings themselves if you ask me.

Rumour is it only happens if you play a single Shep, but I'm really not interested in doing that, so it remains as such.

A really, really short fix fic written on break at work:

Liara sat on the edge of the Normandy's gangplank, watching Dr. Chakwas and Tali kitbash one of the medigel dispensers into a dextro-amino converter. Is this how it all ends? she wondered, a hand probing her abdomen sadly. I should be grateful. We're alive. It's a beautiful world. This is so obviously his last gift to us. And yet...too young for children. Too old to believe in fairy tales. I wonder if this is how Bakara felt.

Somewhere in the bowels of the Normandy, a familiar voice whispered, "Assuming control." He sounded almost amused. Goddess, now I'm hallucinating.

Garrus' yelp of shock convinced her otherwise.

WIth a start of shock, Liara jumped to her feet and ran up the ramp. Dodging around astonished crewmen, she dove into the armory, heading for the elevator -- but what she saw at the armor station stopped her cold. James and Steven could only do the same, dumbfounded.

Shepard's eyes were glowing an even more brilliant blue than before, the -- what had he called those little upturns of his eyes, "epicanthic folds" or something -- crinkling in amusement. His dress uniform had split down the front, medigel and omni-gel alike dripping down the center. "Well. That's going to be a mess," Rock quipped.

The maiden leaped to his side and grasped his hand. His beautiful familiarity wrapped around her soul like a balm on a mortal wound. Tears streamed down her face as he smiled joyously at her. "Goddess. Oh, goddess. You're real. You're --"

They kissed.

When they came up for air, she thought to ask the obvious question: "How?"

Shepard chuckled and shrugged. "I'm, well, part of the galaxy now. People, computers, machines...Reapers. It was a trick cloning myself, but the Synthesis Wave gave me something to work with. Enough, I guess."

"What about the mass relays, Shepard?" Garrus asked. Liara wasn't surprised he was the first to recover his wits. "Can we --"

"Go home?" Rock grinned and nodded. "It'll take me a few months to get the network back on line." His smile vanished. "Emergency services come first. The Citadel is a mess, and I don't have to tell you what the homeworlds are like."

Liara hugged him fiercely. "My Paragon." She looked out the opening. "Why here?"

"It's the homeworld of Harbinger's people," Shepard explained. "Secret. Defended." He looked fiercely into Liara's eyes. "Safe."

"Then let's keep it that way." Liara held him as they both looked out into their world. "It'd be nice for a place of sanctuary to be real. Wouldn't it?"

Shepard nodded again. "We still have work left to do...but I wouldn't have it any other way."

I thought the same about ME1 and ME2 but I've been able to make some ME3 Shepards that I've been very happy with. That said, I still think both default Sheps look loads better than what can be made in the CC.

edit: adding some more blue love to this page :wub:

I'm doing my Insanity run now, with the default face. I don't like it at all. I'm going to change that tomorrow. >.<
On the bright side, it's the run I'm going to save Mordin..... and romance Liara again and again.
^_^


Having played CoOp with you ... Insanity should be easy for you. I won't even try it.

The new femShep looks like a teenager not a woman in her late 20's/early 30's so I just can't take her serious. But I know some people love her so there you go. I have my custom Shep ... all is good. You can't make everyone happy and I've never been an "everyone" so .... Image IPB

I don't hate her, but I'm really used to seeing my femShep with Liara, that I don't want to see someone else.
I even kept my mShep away from Liara and hope for the Help-Jack-to-get-laid-DLC. ^^
My poor boy didn't get any love in ME3. :crying:

I can see why they cut that dialog, it's really sad to be honest. Still, both are great and add a lot of depth to Shepard's character.

Those eyes!

Actually, ME 1 really seemed to get the eyes right, my femshep had a ponytail thing in ME 1, then a bob cut after she was rebuilt, and now it's just grown longer and she really always had freckles. And those lips........

I don't want to play a single shepard either. My first Mass Effect 3 playthrough focused on romancing Ashley (Mostly because I was taken by surprise in how stunning her looks was upgraded, so I simply had to try and hump her). Disappointingly enough I failed at that romance, no idea where I went wrong.

Either way, currently working my way through Mass Effect 2, after romancing Liara in 1, and I went to the Lair of the Shadow Broker as soon as I could to continue the romance with Liara in 2, now the rest of the game just lacks Liara too much.

By the way, they should've totally made Liara bring the Shadow Broker dossier to Normandy, that thing had some good reading material.

Yeah, I felt a little creepy reading them but the back info to every character added a lot of perspective. To be honest I detested Miranda during the main game, but after reading her dossier I started liking her.

If I play I need people like you to protect my sorry butt! I will at least let you know where the enemy is ... after they kill me you have them marked. I'll ping you if I am online to play this weekend.

At least Shepard was pretty much "dead" those two years. She would have went to see Liara if she hadn't been. Six months is a long time in human terms though not in an asari view. So while EW was hurt poor Liara wouldn't understand, not really. After all, it was "only" six months.

ladyvader ... that is cool that your Shepard understood. I have a couple Shepards (none Liaramanced) that would have been fine with no visitations from their LI.

EW, unfortunately, is not one of them. She was hurt ... she also would have liked Liara to have come to Earth, her homeworld. She would have liked to have at least shown her the Earth skies, grass ... met her grandparents, Aunts and cousins. EW is also a very healthy woman who finds 6 months without sex not exactly a good thing. Just sayin'.


[/quote]

Yeah, but seriously can anyone hold a grudge against Liara? She turns those blue eyes on you and *bam!*, you forget what you were angry about.

And Rachel knows exactly what EW felt. I'm not saying there's no understanding for the no-show, but goddamn if it wasn't a trial in itself. Especially after she'd only recently visited. Let's not even talk about the horizontal tango for a while, not seeing her at all for 6 months?


/quote]

Those blue eyes don't work on EW ... Liara has a bigger crush on EW to be honest. But they do work through that in the end. This is just one of those "culture/species" clashes if you will. I like adding "real" moments in my RPG and Liara & EW do argue on occasion. They've had a couple good one. EW has done things to hurt Liara and vice versa ... makeup sex is a good thing.

I liked Miranda, but I guess it's just the male instinct in me that liked her. :whistle:

But yes, they definitely added a bit of perspective, a bit of detail, something I often enjoyed with all the planets as well. Not that I felt Mass Effect 3 lacked any character depth, because from an overall perspective, I found character depth to be the best in 3. 1 was the best storyline, 2 was the best overall gameplay and complete feeling, and 3 was the best character wise.

By the way, saw this on a YouTube vid's comment section and wanted to share: Ode to Marauder Shields:

Marauder Shields, Marauder Shields,
The Husk who held the Line.
The Guardian of the Endings,
The Protector of our Mind.

He tried to save you from yourself,
From madness for all time.
Lest you advance into nonsense
Stood fast and held the Line.

Marauder Shields, Marauder Shields,
He knew what lay behind:
The Glowing Kid, the Coloured Beam,
In three different kinds.

He sacrificed his life for you,
He did away with all his Blue,
He gave his Red before his Death,
And died Marauder Health.

Heh, when is it never? Okay, there may be some times when it isn't good, but can you picture them in an abusive relationship? No, right, on we go.

The biggest blemish on Rachel's record so far, to have died without Liara permitting it. In a not very serious kind of way that is. Rachel didn't take Liara's coolness too well, after the confusing return she had, and may or may not have made a terrible mistake with one Yeoman Kelly Chambers, but least said soonest mended.

Rachel didn't die a second time, and that's all that mattered.

You're not alone in your angry confusion. I've said, if the ended ME 3 right there and then, it would have been hailed as the sci-fi game of this generation, even though it still lacked closure and all that good stuff.

No, some of us females loved Miranda as well. That woman rocks! My male Shepard cheated with her on Ash but sadly he loves Ash ... so he will return to her. But he did really care for Miranda.

Arguing is not abusive ... You have an abusive relationship with Liara?

EW & Liara both are very honest and sometimes they don't agree. You see bits of arguments in the game with Liara always giving in. Just once I would love to see her stand by her guns. But in my headcanon she does at times which is a good thing. But they do love one another and respect each other.

Well fair enough. I just loved her ass. I have a friend who once said "That ass deserves it's own loyalty mission"

Liara just has the best face, I'm a massive sucker for blue eyes and a cute smile. But I never hesitated to do anything with Miranda, will be weird not to do so in my current Mass Effect 2 playthrough to remain loyal to Liara. Besides, even if Miranda is like my 3rd favorite in Mass Effect 3, romancing her in 2 and then breaking up with her in 3 is still a bit painful when she starts to cry. Don't want no crying woman, can't handle it, too emotionally involved in the game. :unsure:

During the main game she lacked a lot of "human touch" to the point she ended up being obnoxious in many respects (reading the comic prior to playing the game and seeing how arrogantly she treated Feron and Liara didn't help her either), but reading the profile and thinking a little about her past life you can see how that attitude was nothing more than an emotional shield against the rest of the world. They added a lot of humanity to her character in the SB profile.
