I agree silentk single sheps are almost painful to do, and its a heavy risk...

BUT THE PRIIIZE!

Come on, Silent! I know you can do it! Just ignore Kaidan and don't get into any of the upper-left convos with Liara! You'll be fine! Joker is (possibly) worth it! Lol
:happy:

Edit:  WRY does this keep happening to me??? Gah, I'll try to cook up a Shepard/Joker pic this week and I'll get back to you on a Top-of-Page Joker pic...

lol =) the prize indeed. As a bigtime Jacob-girl there is a heavy risk that she'll end up with him. See what I did there =) I guess I'll just have to remind myself that I'm going for bromance and not romance with that specific bunch of pixels. Every time that I'm going to talk with Jacob I'll just have to swing by Joker first to keep myself in check. See but do not touch.... *sigh* the staying single thing isn't easy but Joker is worth it.

Hey Vttk welcomes
Aww that is freakin adorable!

[Omega Torsk]

Welcome Vttk! Gah, that's awesome! So freakin' Joker!

Just finished the collector ship mission on my Jokermance hopeful. Wanted to get some post-mission dialogue from Joker... it wasn't there.

"That's it for now," lamest line evaaar! I DON'T WANT IT TO BE IT! Jokermance / Jokerrapport for ME3!

[Victia]

Welcome vttk :-) adorable piccie

[SolarDiamond]

I'm coming up on Virmire for my single Shep playthrough. Kaidan's hard to resist, and Liara... I hate to be mean to her, but it's the only way to get out of her ninja-mance!

Omega, I was disappointed with lack of convo from Joker after that mission, too. It would have been the perfect time for him to bring up his feelings since it was the same ship. Bah. Well, that is Joker for you. Here's to hoping for deepness from him in ME3 -- romantic or otherwise.

[Sylvanpyxie]

I never have issues getting a single FemShep. My first ever FemShep was single and I've had 3 more single runs through both games.. I actually really enjoy the no romance runs.

Forums have had people talking about avoiding romances as hard a lot lately, whether by dialogue or because "Oh my gosh he's so ceeeuuuuuuute!" I dunno. But i'm beginning to feel like i'm missing out. *Sniffles*

And yes, i said ceute. Ceeeeuuuuuute.

Welcome Nerys and Vttk! Our following grows every day...muahahaha.

Back to school with me...

We dont know each other well enough for you to jokingly say that, so hence forth, you're a d!ck

Do we know each other well enough for you to jokingly call me Batman, Nam? {smilie}

Lol, im confused. Are you asking me to call you batman, or are you saying i already have called you batman?

Lol, I guess that joke fell flat on its face. Sorry, when I get head colds, I get kind of loopy.

I meant you can call me the Batman!

I felt the same. In DAO/2, I never had a single character, but I really like my single Sheps. They're my main ones. The romance-y Sheps are my alternates. Admittedly, the main reason they're single is because one I want in a f/f relationship that doesn't involve Liara, and the other is for Joker, but still. I've enjoyed playing them as single.

[SolarDiamond]

I'm hoping that with my solitary single Shep playthrough we get some interesting romantic options in ME3, like being able to start a romance with Kaidan or Garrus where there wasn't one in the previous games. I'm really, really interested to see how a playthrough WITH a romance would turn out if I leave them in ME3 for Joker. A Kaidan/Joker triangle could be very interesting if there's a confrontation. I'd love to hear what Joker has to say about that, but I have a feeling he'd be like, Yeah, I know you can do better than me... so... whatever. Then I'd be all like, Oh Joker, you're perfect just the way you are I'm a sucker for romantic drama. *Goes off to daydream*

EDIT for spelling, because when I get excited I don't spellcheck myself. ._.

The only LI I've ever had a problem not romancing is Ashley. She's just so alluring and is one of the more well-written characters (imho). I'm currently trying to go through ME1 on a renegade; not romancing Ash in lieu of Miranda is really difficult!

I've yet to get the ME2 paramour achievement on either X-Box or PC. ME2 romances... I dunno, there's just something missing from them (also, it doesn't help that most of my sheps aren't single at that point).

Ash... *drools* why isn't March here, yet!? Gaaah! Exactly 5 more months, people! We've almost hit the halfway mark. It'll be all downhill from there! Of course, we would've only had to wait one more month had Bioware kept the original release date, but I'm okay with March... just tell me it's to make the game even more awesome! 

Edit: Oh, and congratulations on getting your ME2 back, Phantom! :happy:

@Omega, I know what you mean about Ashley. Fortunately that was never really an issue for my single Shep playthroughs, because I usually play female (I only played male twice, once romancing Ash, and once as gayShep). Honestly, my first ever femShep ended up single because there was no Ashley love for her. Kaidan and Liara were alright, but not really suited to my renegon Shep. I'm delighted she's back on the team!

And the ME2 romances, I know what you mean there too. I never did Miranda's, though I tried Jack and Tali's with alternate saves from my maleShep who romanced Ash). As for the males, Shepard's sexual harassment of Jacob was just too creepy and the romance itself didn't interest me, Garrus I prefer as Shep's good friend, romancing Thane felt too much like Shepard was trying to live up to his dead wife, and tragic romances don't interest me at all. I thought Samara's partial romance was good, and liked that she held to her vows. And Kelly... meh. They weren't as good as that one Ash-romance playthrough. It just worked. I generally prefer the DA romances too, for some reason.

[Patchwork]

I've never seen it as being ninja romanced myself. Laira/Kaidan express an interest and Shepard can either go for it or not. Not a big deal imo.Even the harsher response to Kaidan I handwave as in Shepard's experience marines need to be shut down hard so there's no mistaking her lack of interest.

I do find it hard to resist Kaidan in ME1, he's just so cute and earnest. I'm the same with Zevran in DAO. Have.To.Resist.Flirt.Option. Breaking up with them is even harder.

That I don't like how ME2 romances are implemented helps when I want to avoid them. Chat-Chat-Loyalty Mission-Activate Romance-Chat-Sex, it feels a bit shallow. That said Garrus is by miles my favourite, it's the earnestness again, but I don't find it as hard to resist as Kaidan/Zevran.

[CDRSkyShepard]

It is almost impossible for me to resist Kaidan. I basically have to not talk to him. I'm taking my up-until-now-exclusively-ME2 renegade Amara through ME1 now, and it is SO HARD to be renegade around him! Rarg. But I'm gonna have to, because Amara only has eyes for da Garrus. ;D I also figured out being a Vanguard in ME2 is way better than being a Vanguard in ME1...*ahem*

I appreciated the variety the ME2 romances gave us, even if they were underwhelming in comparison to the ME1 romances. Mention of this topic makes me think of a conversation when I gave my ex a copy of PS3 ME2 for Christmas...

Kevin: *Points at Miranda* Who's that?
Me: That's Miranda.
Kevin: She's hot.
Me: You can romance her.
Kevin: *Look of absolute glee and excitement* REALLY? I love this game.
Me: You haven't even started playing it yet!
Kevin: ...So?

Silly men. Anyway, I just decided that I'm not going to do a single run-through for Joker. Not that I don't love him, I just like dithering about in the romance subplots too much. XD

[phantomdragoness]

I have no problem resisting Kaidan. I just hate that my only option to disuade him is dickish. I do, however, have problems resisting Garrus and Zevran. It takes so much willpower to ignore the flirt options!

Following dialog starring Samantha Shepard and Joker:

Shepard: So, I've been having these weird dreams lately.
Joker: Talk to Miss Freud if you want your dreams disected and possibly molested. *motions to Kelly*
Shepard: No. They're about Batman. Funny, I haven't thought of those comic books in ages.
Joker: Figures you'd dream about overly muscled men. Vega's been watching you like a dinosaur watches a lawyer on a toilet.
Shepard: But they all have funny voices.
Joker: ...O-oh?
Shepard: Yeah. Batman sounded like Garrus. Harley sounded like a horrible man-version of me - southern accent included - and Joker sounded like you.
Joker: ...W-weird...
EDI: Your heart rhythm has escalated, Mr. Moreau.
Joker: No it hasn't!
EDI: My readings also indicate a minor sweat has started.
Joker: NO IT HASN'T!
EDI: Now it's severe.
Shepard: Joker?
Joker: Umm...*sigh* Look. When you were...comotose, I would...I'd...I'd sneak in during lunch and read you Batman comic books. I had a voice for each character. Garrus was Batman. I was the Joker. And you were Harley.
Shepard: ...
Joker: I started reading to you after you started looking more human though, and not...Darth Vader. I didn't want to puke all over you. Figured that would set things back a few days...or...months in our friendship.
Shepard: *quirks eyebrow*
Joker: I wasn't privvy to all the sciency stuff, Shepard. So, I hacked into Wilson's omni-tool sometimes to see...well...how it was going.
EDI: ...Creepy.
Joker: No it wasn't! *red*
Shepard: *lays hand on top of Joker's* It was sweet.
Joker: *blushes*
EDI: Human courtship rituals are bizarre.

Awesome phantom :-) I think joker reading shep comics while she was rebuilt has just become part of my head cannon :-D

[Koji-san]

It's funny that Kaidan never appealed to me. I just didn't like his surfer-guy accent. Very un-Marine. Also his whining about killing that dude. Buck up, soldier! I guess my FemShep is too renegade for his melodrama. The only character besides Joker and Zaeed that i ever had an interest in was myself in DA:2 (default FemHawke with a scar). RAWR! How does one tao oneself...oh wait. :-)

[Koji-san]

Tao=tap.

Like DeadlyHaven, I have a device that doesn't believe in editing. *shakes fist lovingly at Steve Jobs*

[lokipwner]

I have yet to make my single femShep. I just know that it will be so hard for me. Kaidan will be hard to pass up, but if I don't talk to him then I am okay to make it through the first game while staying single. In the second game however, omg! Garrus and Thane are everywhere! I already have my Garrus Shep, and my Thane Shep, but if I talk to either of them, or even have them on my team... oh the horror! I read into things, and every little thing will have me thinking "aww did you see the way that Garrus/Thane just looked at my Shep?!" "Oh look Garrus/Thane has my Shep's back...aww!" Oh that is going to be soooo hard! Must keep eyes closed on loyalty missions, never talk to them, and never use either of them on my team.

Question: Those of you who mod, do you know the vectors for the pale green eye colour? I'd change it myself, except Naomi is an import so it's not a simple number change.

BTW: I found this:


by runaway-mercenary and Meesak

[NamiraWilhelm]

Phantom, ask in the Modding Is Possible III thread, they are all knowing and wise in there. I still need to get to grips with hair and eye colour, im badass at changing hair styles though lol

[Victia]

Of all my single sheps (2 fems for joker, 1 for ff and 1 for mm) my mm shep was by far the easiest as he didn't have any suitable li's available and I was really good at role playing him so there was no tali or liara temptation, with my ff I had to try hard to resist liara (as I don't really see that as a ss relationship bit that shep still kinda wanted to) one of my joker romances all most fell for kaidan (im had to call my husband down stairs to reject him as I was too cowardly lol) but the other one for joker was ok -just went to talk to him first after every mission to keep my goals in my head :-/!! Will all be worth it in the end (please bioware please)
