Luckily I have no dilemma on this. I pretty much see no longevity for a Shepard and Miranda romance, so regardless of how she's treated in ME3 they'll be split up. Either she dies, giving him some degree of guilt and regret for letting her go or she lives and they separate like I originally thought they would. I think a better fit for Beau Shepard would be to have him go back to Ashley, she's the more "stable" of the two and after the whirlwind that was his time fighting the reapers he's seeking some normalcy. Miranda couldn't provide that even if she wanted to.


It sort of depends on the Shepard. My Shepard, James doesn't really like the idea of settling down anytime soon. He's fought through the entire galaxy and wants to do something that doesn't involve war and destruction. Ideally an ending with Miranda would involve working for the organization she builds.

In the event that the Miranda romance doesn't satisfy in ME3 and she doesn't survive the war I can sort of see him turning into a Death Seeker . He wins the war, and by sheer luck comes out of it alive. I sort of picture him heading off to fight injustice alongside Samara, seeking a noble end.

I always considered Liara the most "stable" of all the LIs actually.. Ashley has quite a strong personality IMO.. so does Miranda of course (but my Shep is looking forward to their relationship anyway).

If Miranda dies, well, she would probably like my Shepard to move on. However I don't think he could, what's the point of saving the galaxy if the one you love is not here anymore ? She gives him a reason to live and to year for a better future, with her.
He wouldn't commit suicide or throw his life away without accomplishing something for the greater good, he would be pleased to have a honorable death.
If he survives, he would be probably be bitter and weary of life, a wandering man without purpose despite all the glory he may have.

Would my Shep commit suicide if Miranda died? No but he would be highly likely to do something reckless in grief and anger that would probably get him killed

Of course it depends on how you rp them. The Shepard I paired her with originally was drawn to Miranda because he was impressed with the operation she was running and made him see her the way other people see him. A bit of hero worship that grows once they got closer.

Any Shepard that's traveling with Samara isn't going to be alone for very long anyway.;)

Ashley is very domineering, but she's equally nurturing if not more so. In fact, her tougher side was tempered by having to be a surrogate parent and raising her sisters. That length of time and close relationship with her family influenced her to be the type of person who wants to protect people that are close to her with little thought of her own person. Miranda doesn't have these qualities because her life caused her to grow into someone very different. She's the type of person that would want to continue in the service, but also want a home with Shepard.

In Me1, Liara was perhaps the most stereotypical version of the t.v. girlfriend from the 50's. Very agreeable, very easy going and way too interested and devoted in her boyfriend with little thought to herself or who she is as an individual. This can be chalked up to her being so "young," and Tali suffered from the same thing.

Should Miranda die during the war, my Shepard's life would have two purposes.
Make sure Oriana is safe and happy and continue Miranda's work, advance and protect humanity.

I disagree with the bolded. I'd say that Miranda has her own version of a nurturing side. She would not be the one who walks Oriana home everyday after school but we have seen that she is extremely protective of those she cares about with little tought about herself. A good example of that is how she rsiked returning to the same place she had escaped from just a few years back to rescue a sister she owed nothing to or how she kept herself away for Oriana's protection despite wanting to meet her.
Also, whishing for Oriana to have a normal life can be seen as nurturing.

Why is produce whole debate out of the Miranda's death, perhaps she dies in ME3, or is it just that we have a bad day?

Her death is avoidable, but I'd have to say her death is one of the few well-written bits.

the Miranda's death is the worst idea that bioware has imagined.

if she were to die I do not think shepard has the strength to continue living a life without his beloved Miranda. so that probably he will sacrifice.

So It's True? We won't be even getting a Romance Scene with Miri in ME3?:(

Isn't there ANY Acknowledgment?:(

Define romance scene. There appears to be at least a rather intense kiss. Shep also gets upgraded to best, most romantic boyfriend ever.

Well, that's been in doubt since the script was leaked. There was some indirect evidence unearthed recently supporting the idea that there might not be one. It was fairly indirect, though.

Isn't that unfair? We should have a love/sex scene, all player with THEIR LIs should. I don't understand why BioWare is screwing players over.

I seriously doubt that there will be a "Post" DLC, LOTSB. I don't think that it would make sense to have a Mission DLC after taking back Earth.

Right. One of them most popular LIs in ME2, with well over 1500 pages on her (ME3)fan thread, not getting a romance scene. Image IPB

Edit: I'm laughing at the idea that this is considered a serious possibility, not that it it's actually happening. It's just too ridicoulous, IMO.

Miranda isn't part of the team, she won't be with shepard and she won't have a love scene-

There is some evidence that the ex-squad romances will not be getting pre-final battle romance scenes. Miranda appears to get a vid transmission.

That may be true, but a romance scene WILL occur at some point. There's no way BW would be stupid enough to not include one at all. IMO.

There is no romance scene. Only the true romance receives that and Miranda isn't a true romance.

Yeah, they do appear to at least make out at one point, though I don't think they have sex.

Riiiiiight. Tell that to my Shepard. Romance is romance, squadmate or no.

Edit: Also, 'the' true romance? Which one is that? I'm sure the fans of Kaidan, Ashley, Liara, Tali, Garrus, etc. would all LOVE to hear which of them don't get that designation.

Why isn't Miri a "True Romance?" I've only Romanced with her. This is not fair, definitely NOT fair. We should get a love/sex scene. This isn't right!!

Why? Goddammit WHY?! Why do the ME1 Romancers only get what they want. I've only Romanced with Miranda. Why am I not getting anything for only having ONE Romance?!

BioWare, you heartless and sadistic Mother ****ers! :(
