Have I mentioned lately how much I do want the Illusive Woman scenario?

I think I'm one of the few who don't want her to be a permanent squadmate, it'd limit her contribution to the war, and as I said before, Miranda is much more than a foot soldier, let her join us for some time, help us take down Cerberus and then leave to do her thing, otherwise she's just reduced to a mere follower who has almost no hook points in the bigger picture like Garrus for instance.

Some of you may argue that she can make that contribution while on the Normandy and they're right but it won't give her the same air of independence that she'd have if she left, also a large role with her leaving may include The Illusive Woman scenario which I really hope comes to reality.

I agree with you. I want her on the team for a significant part of the game, but the really important thing it that she'll have a big role and there's enough interaction with her. I can't say I'll not be disappointed if her time on the team is short, but I can live with it more easily than with Miranda reduced to a foot soldier.

So this is unadulterated good news for me. I spent the way home grinning like mad.  

@Yannkee:
You won't be forced into it I'm sure.

Well, to me it will be very simple. She's not in the squad = no ME3

Are you a Mass Effect fan?

Just seems a strange attitude to have if you are a fan of the series.

Isn't that a little bit harsh? Whilst I'd still play ME3 (eventually), I'll almost certainly cancel my CE if Miranda isn't a squad member...

I didn't mean to be harsh but I find the attitude suprising. Sure, we all have favourite characters but I don't think I'd not purchase a game because one of the characters has a reduced role.

Hey, why not? 

I just don't want her to sit around doing nothing, The Illusive Woman, taking over her father's business, creating a new pro-human organization, or even founding a research company are all winning scenarios in my book.

Well, it's not like us Zaeed supporters have a hard time accepting that...

Well you're you. I am not judging you for buying it, why judge us for not buying it? Don't start a ****storm, that you're not ready to see through.

For me, even the ''stay-at-home mom'' scenario starts to sound exciting.

Edit: I blame the huge price tags for ruining my ability to make sensible sentences.

I want an Illusive Woman scenario too...... where my femshep fulfills that role alongside her (Illusive) man. :happy:

I think the issue with that, at least potentially, is that a lot of those things would not have a large role in the actual game.

Conceptually, they might be important within the context of the imaginary universe, or maybe in an extended universe type of situation in novels and such, but you could make Miranda Galactic President if you wanted, and it might still lead to a fairly disappointing appearance in the game.

I'm not against the idea, but not during the game with an organization like Cerberus.
I like the idea of Miranda creating / leading a new organization after the war.

But that depends how much that character contributes to the pleasure/enjoyment you receive from the game, surely?

Everyone will have different views on which components of the game mean the most to them. Whilst I can see how the inclusion or exclusion of any single character would not be a game breaker for many, I can also see how it would be for some.

I'd find that a very satisfying ending to the trilogy.

Definitely. Any of those would work.

Aces, that's exactly what's on my mind, LotSB length is the least of what I'd consider acceptable (reluctantly), I'm hoping for more of course.

[jtav]

Thirded. I'd rather have her important to the galaxy at large.

And, come on guys, can we act like we got good news? I'm as big a pessimist as they come--my first post was about how she would be cameo'd--but I think we have reason for optimism.

[Caihn]

Not my first concern because I already romanced her in ME2, but Miranda not squadmate in ME3 certainly means : Miranda not available for new romance, therefore no s/s romance.

It's true their potential can't be fulfilled to the fullest in ME3, but it leaves us with a better imagination of what's to come for the character, maybe it's the last time we'll hear of Miranda therefore I want her to be doing something worthy of her, that can affect her role in ME3 in any number of ways, some of them bad but some of them offer better opportunities for her story.

Maybe, though I think it's actually been mentioned that some romance options in ME3 will be out-of-squad, so to speak.

A thoughtful perspective but, on the other hand, all we are likely to experience of that story is what is depicted in the game, so I'm not sure that I'll be too excited about the awesome role she will be playing in fanfic or whatever.

I'm glad to hear her news. A larger role is surely something I want. I don' necessary want her as permanent squadmate, as long as she has enough character development.
And I agree with jtav, Ieldra and ViseirA about The Illusive Woman scenario (or leading a new organization).

Miranda having a large role is good news, but the fact that it could imply that she won't be a squadmate is bad news.
So no I have no reason to be happy.

I think it was a reference to characters who will be on the Normandy but not in the squad.

Australian accents and English accents are very close. It's hard to tell them apart if you're not used to hearing traditional English people speak, and traditional Australian people speak.

That's not entirely true, there's noticable difference even to the unfamiliar. I'm familiar with them both extensively and Miranda's accent is indeed Australian.

I understand that they believe she is
of the same nationality since she is modeled after Yvonne, but, 'Lawson'
is a straight-forward English name.

There's nothing stopping a family with the name Lawson from moving to Australia or even being part of the first fleet.

Apologies if this has been resolved, I'm still trying to catch up with all the new pages.

True, I suppose that is likely.

OK people, good news. I'm just back from attending the Mass Effect 3 panel on GamesCom.

Mike Gamble said that Miranda "will have a large role" in Mass Effect 3, but refused to say anything about her being a squadmate or not.

 


Hell yeah  now I am

True, but that can plague any character development, not just the scenarios I mentioned, what you apply of each scenario to the character's contribution in the game is what counts, whatever the writers decide to do I hope they do it right.
