Why do you need to name call and rub it in?  I doubt the guys would be quiet about their complains if Ashley was SS and Kaiden wasn't even if they had Cortez and Vega (for instance)


I agree about the name-calling. However, I can only speak for myself, but I would have been happy even with just Vega.

So now it's time to call Ashley/FemShep fans greedy, for wanting a character who is definitely not interchangeable with any of the other f/f options (and many of us would gladly trade away Kelly, Diana and Samantha for her)???

I expected the haters in the Ashley thread, but here too? Sigh.

The information about Ashley seems especially bizarre since I just played the Demo, and everything in the Demo strongly suggested her as the main LI for FemShep. From the character creator screen where you choose between Ashley and Kaiden and it talks about the 'bond' you have formed, to the time when you're reunited and Ashley looks at Shepard with such desire, its all extremely strongly implied that she is an LI, why on earth wouldn't she be one? Given that it takes more time and effort for them to make any given LI 'not' available to both Shepards than it takes to make them available to both, they must have had a reason to make that extra effort to prevent us FemShep players from romancing Ashley, but I certainly don't know what that is. Especially strange given how strongly they imply that you can. Its definitely disappointing.


Agreed completely. When I first heard that the VS would be a s/s option, and then after playing the demo I was really excited for the romance, but then to hear 4 days before release that it's only Kaidan? Talk about having the rug pulled out from under me. If I had known from the beginning that she (and Kaidan both) wouldn't be available, I would have said "well that sucks, oh well" and moved on. But hoping and waiting for so long only to find out at the last minute that she's not (and he is) is what has me so disappointed. Maybe after I give it a few days to settle in I won't be as upset, but right now I can't say I'm looking forward to the game even half as much as I was.

Whiny bunch, eh? Now, now. No need to get passive-agressive.

I have to agree with Aurellia. Most of you (myself included) would have been incredibly gutted if Kaiden hadn't been made a LI but Ashley had. You'd be calling foul, too, I suspect.

But, that being said -- maybe Ashley's just not queer. That's how I'm gonna headcannon it.

Checked Kelly's dialogues, the other LIs don't seem to be mentioned any longer. However, a dialogue in which you can tell Kelly that you "still have her" is still there. So unless it's unused, you can continue romance with Kelly.

Fantastic, thank you for that bit of info :) Is the fade-to-black lovescene in the game (the one from the leaked script)?

I only play straight females and gay males but I am still bummed about Ashley mostly because I have BSN friends who have really been waiting for her and they have been supportive of this thread. What REALLY bothers me is that she appears to have limited FRIENDSHIP interaction with female Shepard (ME2 all over again) and continues to prove the theory that Bioware assumes if you cannot hump them you will not bother talking to them.

Of course that could just be a bug and if so I apologize to Bioware. Still pissed we cannot find out OFFICIALLY who the romances are for crying out loud.

That's just the ME team, I loved the friendship path my female Warden had with Morrigan/Zevran/Alistair and the friendships my Hawke formed in DA2.Edit: The funny thing is, according to LotSB and the CC screen in ME3, Ashley is supposed to one of your closest friends and Shepard and Ashley share a 'close bond', yet you have one single convo with her in ME3 after you recruit her :pinched:

This, this is something I too would expect in the thread by the people who were "offended" by femshepley but not in the FTL thread.

@Chouan: This. Morrigan was awesome when I played straight FemHawke/gay MaleHawke.

I havn't seen anybody say such things, except in response to remarks that it is somehow unfair/unbalanced that Kaidan is available for s/s and Ashley is not.

Can someone with pre-loaded game check the "Cloased" file and see which LIs grant "True Love"/"Paramour" achievements? In the demo it said Diana instead of Samantha, it was probably a bug/mistake but it would be better to verify it

That scene still seems to be there. But I don't know if it's actually used.

Might have been a little harsh, but if saying you knew Bioware would never let a female character be equal to their male characters just because Ashley wasn't romanceable for females isn't whining IDK what is. PS. I'm just an outsider and not gay, just thought it was a ridiculous thing to say.

I am taking everying posted on these forums with a grain of salt. Actually lots of grains of salt. Around a margarita glass. :D

But seriously, until that ME3 disc is happily spinning in my PC's hard drive and I'm physically seeing on my monitor what options are available to my Shepard I'm not going to stress out. So to Ashley fans I say don't give up hope!

Please, nobody is "hating" here.  We're just trying to mitigate some of the "Bioware is sexist" nonsense.  I'm disappointed on behalf of everyone that wanted Ashley as f/f just like I'm disappointed on behalf of the people who wanted to stay with Jacob or romance Shiala.  It's just not something that was included, unfortunately, but they couldn't include everything that everyone wanted.

As sad as I am about Ashley at this point I'm more insterested in what IS in the game. Any word on her friendship dialogue? Or perhaps some Sam? I need some cheery f/f news :P

Samantha. Shower scene. She will "do fine" according to Shepard dialog.

Can anyone confirm if the following Steve/Shep dialogue is in the .tlk?

Cut until I can figure out how to color correctly.

More or less might confirm whether or not Steve gets two sex scenes.

Unfortunately I couldn't find it :/ But isn't the scene from the video basically this, but rewritten? With the entire "can we win this war blah blah"?

I couldn't find it. I tried a few different lines, too.

We're referring to the poster who said the ''You gals sure are a whiny bunch''. That was very uncalled for.
