Dawg my wallet is ready for all of the above. Thing is is that I would have gladly replaced all of those characters you've listed for the ones we have now.

Kasumi for Tali
Samara for Liara
Miranda for EDI

Had we been able to make our own squad mine would have looked a lot like that...

I heard someone from Gamescon discussing Priestly mentioning something LotSB-styled for ME2 Characters. That could be great.

Is there any more accurate source for that?


On another note: I finshed your request Taboo. It's nothing spectacular, but I hope it fits with what you imagined:

There are actually pleanty of stories in the ME Universe yet to be told.

I've always wanted to hear about Samara and the Justicar Code. I have so many questions about it.

I'd also love to see more Miranda (natuarally) and Jack.

It seems likely that Zaeed will be tied to Omega some how like in the original script.

Seeing Kasumi in action and what makes her a "Master Thief" would be great. I'd love to go on a heist with her that has much more Akrham City-like gameplay while we avoid Cerberus mooks or something.

There are a lot of things they can expand on.


THESE:

These have been enigma's to Mass Effect since I started playing.

ME1 and ME2 had the coolest planet descriptions!

Actually it does.That's pretty much what she'd be doing. Sitting right there, making sure he was healing correctly and holding his hand telling him to stay still.

There were obviously aesthetic differences and there is no model for Shepard in the manner I envisioned. As I've stated before it's about the message your art sends not how it looks.

Well done.

...Well, That's rather similar to the scene from my fic....I hate to be THAT guy, but just change the room to Huerta Memorial and it'd be accurate. Well, actually, its fine as is because I'm changing Huerta Memorial out for Earth instead to my own custom ending.

There will always be differences. The point is that we have reached a similar consensus so I don't feel weird now.

But I'm still figuring out what the room looks like. I'm thinking a white room. But I also haven't figured out how big the bed is. I would imagine my Shepard giving his up for another wounded soldier and taking something else instead.

Miranda will be sticking around as she knows him inside and out. She'll be there when he wakes up. She'll need to calm him down as he'll probably have a bit of an episode when that happens.

But that leaves debriefing. People are going to have a LOT of questions as soon as he wakes up...

It's supposed to be some dirty Alliance sickbay on Earth. That's why there is more improvised than complex machinery and the environment is more grey than white. Thought that would go better with canon post-destroy.

Taboo, maybe there is a model in the manner you envisioned^^ I have an unbelievable amount of models...

I know I'm not the only person who has thought of this...

Does anyone else envision how ****ing weird Shepard is going to look when he debriefs people?

"You see, the Reapers were a creation of..."

Miranda would believe him, but what of the Council? The Alliance Brass? Hackett?

I never understood why she had it in the first place.

Sex Appeal somehow?


The collar is there because her body and her head are separate models, and the collar is there because it would look weird if Miranda had a pencil-thin black line around her neck, like she had been decapitated.

I actually realized that last night and I think someone pointed that out on the last page.

"Ah yes, 'The Catalyst'. We have dismissed that claim".

Yeah, This is why I'm changing my canon to a conventional victory.

The problem is that it's hard to fit a Miranda story in that's not tied to her sister somehow, or accessible only after Sanctuary.

I don't see a problem with that really. Technically, any of the DLC can be completed post Sanctuary. That is the final point to complete things; The Point of No Return. I see no issue in putting DLC there.

Like the nude models for Shepard. 

Though truthfully, they could have removed it in ME3 if they bothered to work more then 4 minutes on Miranda's appearance. Have a look at Ashley's default outfit - no collar and is seamless. They modified the Ashley head model to include her neck and cleavage all in the same model. The neck in fact as a totally seperate texture from the suit and face. The more you know. ;)

That's true. Most players will access DLC from that point.

Also, she isn't tied down prior to Sanctuary, and could theoretically get involved somewhere else without much explanation really being required.

So... I dunno. I don't think there's anything too problematic here.

Miranda: What exactly did you see up there, Shepard? On the Citadel, I mean...

Shepard: It was strange. There was this kid. The same kid I had seen on Earth the day we left for Mars. HE told me that he was the Catalyst, and that he controlled the Reapers. He told me something about synthetics always killing organics, and so he leads the Reapers to prevent that from happening. The kid also explained to me where the Crucible came from, who created the Reapers, and who created him. He told me I could sacrifice myself and take control of the Reapers, destroy the Reapers, or fuse synthetics and organics together.

M: *Raises omni-tool, speaks into it* Get him the sedative, now! Shepard, lie still and stay calm....

Sorry to just burst in. Don't really have much to add. Though, I do have a question.

Taboo mentioned that Miranda gets a nosebleed from doing the barrier during the suicide mission. Am I to assume this is his imagination getting carried away with itself, as usual, or does that really happen? No offence, Taboo! It is an interesting inclusion if true. :P

Never seen such a nosebleed, and using her is my go to means of killing someone off.

It's nice because it's not stupid. Her biotics are supposed to be impressive after all. And it doesn't feel right having no casualties.

Yeah, I could see that. Also, it's a near thing. So, logically, if we are thinking in terms of a single event, it's something that just misses, or could have gone either way.

Oh, yeah, I don't see anything wrong with it as such. It's perfectly reasonable in some regards.

Just that, personally, even without meta-gaming, I saw Samara and Jack as much more powerful biotics and, therefore, more capable choices.

I think I actually did pick Miranda for the bubble the first time I did it (I thought she was supposed to be perfect, and therefore would have been strong enough). She got Garrus killed...

Though I had never played ME1 at that point and didn't really care.

Well, thing is, going by the presentation, it's not really obvious that the bubble-maker is at fault, if I recall. It looks more like one of your teammates gets a little overzealous.
