Its a comic that began as a joke, part of the hold the line movement, that has evolved into a serious comic that details what is happening during the ending.

I think he's doing a better job with Miranda than BW did  

edit: oh be sure to read it with the background music he suggested

I have no idea what's going on there, and I have some trouble deciphering who says and thinks what, but Miranda appears to be very much herself.

oh yeah, that's part 18, you should probably read from part 1 to understand the whole story

Some of the dialogue's a bit clunky but it is really good otherwise. Loved the first one with Miranda.

good gawd i wish i could draw like that!!

Not to knock how impressive it is, overall, but I think a lot of it is 'tracing' over and adapting existing artwork.

i though so at first, but still, the airbrush treatment and detailment is very good! I lack all of that, so I admire what I can't do, hahah!

This comic is really good. The author does a great job to keep the characters psychology intact. I just love it and i can't wait to see what he has in store for Miri :happy:

That comic proves that fans can do better than the devs.

I guess it's easier for us since we don't have rEAper down our throats

[Skullheart]

I think is easier because fans aren't getting paid for that, they have no more motivation than the love for the game.

True enough. This is one of the issues i have with mass effect 3. I don't feel the passion and the love from the developpers in the game

[jtav]

No, fans "do better" because expectations in terms of razzle-dazzle are lower, so what we produce costs less that what we would consider acceptable from Bioware. As much as I love the fan made epilogue, there would be a riot if BW did the exact same thing.I think I do an excellent job writing Miranda, and I certainly enjoyed her more than what I got in ME3, but my work is fundamentally un-videogamey.

[kookie28]

My only real problem with those comics is with the dialogue. But still pretty sweet. Miranda already has more attention in it than she'll probably get in the extended cut. :/

[MisterJB]

Well, of that much we can be sure. For one, she has dialogue. And it has already introduced two extra plot points.

Sanctuary is a bad mission anyway. Everything is told instead of shown. Imagine if you actually saw some partially-husked refugees. The mission should turn your stomach, but the most interesting thing is the Saber. Give me a break. Sanctuary should have been the ME version of the liberation of Dachau.

You compare a video game mission to the brutal slaughter of millions of people. There is something really wrong with you.

What jtav means is something like "In the fictional universe of Mass Effect, Sanctuary is a death camp and therefore should be depicted as horrific." She's not confusing the fiction and the reality.

But still making the comparison is insulting those who actually went through it.

[kookie28]

I can feel an argument brewing.

"Extended cut bender this afternoon. 4 hour meeting FTW!"

I think this might be a good time to tweet to him about the LI's like Miranda (though, to be honest I don't know if they are including LI info in that DLC or not). Perhaps a fix for the flashback and if they do indeed add stuff about Shepards LI that they don't forget the ME2 LI's.......

Ok, tweeted. It can't hurt

[Td1984]

So, knowing what we now know about TIM in ME3, is there anybody who still saves the Collector Base, or would still save it? Just wondering since I'm considering doing so on my canon run with Thomas.

[Skullheart]

The CB decision is pointless now, It has no significance. I thought it will be better implemented.

Easy Swagger. I don't think she meant any harm by it. She was just making a small comparison. No need to blow it out of proportion. May as well forget it happened.

Is Oriana a biotic?

Well, also, in this case there was nothing trivializing about the comparison. I understand the reaction, because we do see that kind of thing sometimes. Example: people comparing Bioware to Hitler because of the way the endings seem to decimate the galaxy (this has actually happened in the threads on the endings).

That wasn't the kind of comparison being made here, though. There's nothing trivializing about saying that a fictional death camp should attempt to reflect, to a certain degree, the horrors of actual death camps. It's similar to saying that fictional accounts of war should reflect the actual experience of war to the extent possible, rather than a glorified or sanitized version of it.

If anything, it's the sanitized version that is trivializing. Whether or not Sanctuary would actually be a better mission if it went further in depicting the horrors that are implied to have taken place there is open to debate. But anyway, there's nothing insulting about saying that a fictional death camp should try to resemble, well... a death camp.

I would imagine so if he was still going for the "perfect dynasty". But many he scrapped it for her so she wouldn't become too powerful to control like Miranda?

She is what 16-18 years old? She oughta be showing signs by now if she is or isn't.

It would be odd if she weren't, considering the lengths Mr.Lawson went to to make Miranda a biotic. Making Oriana one woud've been so much easier. So I assume she is one. That she doesn't show it in the 30 seconds we see her can have any number of reasons.

I would. I make the decsion with the knowledge Shepard has at the time. Nobody could foresee that TIM would go into full holocaust mode, and of the species he set out to advance.

Canonically, Shepard is a biotuic retrofitted with L3 implants. However, his biotics apparently didn't develop properly if you pick Soldier/Engineer/Infiltrator. The same thing could have happened to Oriana who did not underwent the same training Miranda did under their father.

Personally, I like to think she is not. I accept the theory that Miranda's biotics were forced onto her through the krogan procedure of implanting eezo nodules directly into the nervous system and Miranda rescued Oriana before Henry could do the same to her.
