Everyone should vote for Miranda here if you haven't already.

voted.

...not trying to rant a character or fanbase here, but a winning Liara is ridiculous!...

Does this dialogue seem Catalyst-y enough to you?

The man who came before me was many things. He was an artist who sought to chronicle the galaxy through paint and pencil. He was a deadly soldier with command over matter itself. He was a lover who longed for nothing more than to spend the rest of his days with the woman he saw as perfection. He was a diplomat who sought to heal the wounds of the past and set free all life.

Then he saw how organics squandered that freedom. He saw salarians who were so ruled by fear that they would rather hide than cooperate with their old enemy against a greater threat. He saw quarians consumed by a thirst for vengeance that lead to their destruction. He saw the asari hoard knowledge that could have saved billions of lives. And he became enraged. Through that rage I was created. I do what he could not. I compel the many to make peace. I save them from their mistakes. I heal the wounds they inflicted.

I watch his beloved. His memories echo within me. I do not love her, but I remember the feel of her hand in his, her slight smile. His last thoughts were of protecting her. And so I do. I watch as she rebuilds something new from the ashes of the organization she served. I let her bring light to dark places and see her love her sister. There is purpose in my observation. He loved her for her brilliance, but if that brilliance burns too brightly, she could unleash chaos in the galaxy. My Reapers serve organics, but organics must never be allowed to surpass them for the good of the many. I watch so that she does not make a mockery of his sacrifice.

The message appears without warning, tucked away in the society column of a human newspaper. Miranda Lawson has given birth to a son. Though "birth" is perhaps the wrong word. The child was created as she was. But this time, there is only one other source of DNA: the man I used to be. Echoes of love and grief he flitter across my mind. This was another dream he sacrificed in my creation, the family he lost in adolescence that he hoped to create with her. The regret fills and consumes me, stronger than it ever has. And perhaps I am curious to see this child of his. We are both his progeny in our own way. I am infinite; the child is bound by time. I remember, but he can love.

It is decided. The species we harvested had within them the knowledge to create shells of flesh and blood. A piece of my mind will assume his mortal form for a time. I will see this child of his, this brother of mine. I will come face-to-face with his beloved.

And through it all, I will watch.


This is mostly good. At some points near the start, there is not enough emotional detachment. And "making a mockery of his sacrifice" is not a sentence I would expect God!Shepard to utter. Use neutral terms and expressions whenever possible. Avoid things like "perhaps". You always know what you feel, what you know. There is no uncertainty.

I'm not satisfied with Miranda's content in ME3 (including the romance), and I will continue to voice my opinion.
The EC improved the ending, but the ending has never been my main concern. It changed nothing about her poor role and the lack of content.


Agreed.

Though I admit that I am not as vocal about my opinions as some others are. I do take any chance I get to vote on polls and other community interests (fanbook and such).

Yeah, I agree completely, with both of you.
This is what #FindMiranda is about though. We're all pushing together for more Miranda content, in a civil way of course.
If you have any questions or big ideas you'd like us to fight for, just PM me or any other officer in the group, everyone.

So, I haven't really gathered up enough interest to download the EC, start up ME3, play through to the end and make the choices again, not to mention I don't even have Miranda romanced...

Did it contain anything to make you guys a little happy? From what I've read, it seems like the whole thing is really just a bunch of contrivances to satisfy the fans who couldn't move on. If they just go "and Miranda and Shepard found each other and lived happily ever after", I don't imagine you guys would be all that impressed.

Off topic: I can't find ANY file that says "Extended Cut." Do I have it Installed? It says "Installed" in My Origin Account. I started NG+ Instead of restarting the Cronos Mission. Am I still going to get all that Extended Cut Footage in NG+?

Well if you look at the photo Vertigo posted you can clearly see he is in the BIOGame>DLC>DLC_CON_END file location which contains a .sfar file. So google... sfar unpacking....or something.

Yeah, I don't think your EC will play the Miranda flashback anymore.

It does a lot to improve the game and fix the endings. If the endings had looked like this at launch, they would still be controversial, but probably more in the positive way they were hoping for.

As to Miranda specifically, they fixed the flashback and added epilogue slides for each ending. It's not much, but we weren't really expecting much. The flashback is a very nice animation, and everybody likes the epilogue slides because they show Miranda doing interesting things.

Romance I find better than ME2. It's the main content that bothers me.

Dude, cut the Caps Lock.

And, I'd suggest just reinstalling the EC. Should fix out the issue perfectly.

I like the tone of it, but it needs better closure/payoff. You've said this yourself on more than one occasion ;)

Are you sure it won't show up?
Try replaying the end game scenario to see if it will show up.

Relax, I was just kidding you, I didn't think you'd take it serious.

Pretty much.

There should be a pay off for her survival.
