Yea I do agree we got lucky with Kaidan but I was thinking for all the femsheps that killed Kaidan and Garrus didn't make it out of SM. They have.....Liara and Samantha. Thank god I have both Garrus and Kaidan alive.

No I really loved the romance between Shep and Kaidan. It felt real!! The animation was perfect. Facial expressions were good. I LOVED the date scene. I wish we could of been able to do the cuddle thing on the bed like in ME2. The love scenes is the only thing that got me thru that game. I wish we could of had more convo's and not auto dialouge. Plus most of the scenes now are buggy. Some don't fire while others do.


We got to see them spooning, which for me felt a lot more intimate than them lying on the bed fully clothed like they did in ME2. It was a pity there weren't more little inimate moments like that throughout the game for all the LI's, I think they missed some really good opportunities with that one.

Apparently if you turn down the offer of sex Shepard asks him to stay anyway and he just holds her until she falls asleep, which is very sweet.

Yeah I tried that out and they fall asleep on the couch, but then later when Shepard has her dream and wakes up they're both in bed and in their underwear like the normal romance scene.  I think it would have been nice if romanced Kaidan hung out in your cabin instead of the observation room. :D

Loved, loved, loved the facial animations.  The look Kaidan throws at Shepard during the date after he asks the, "What do you want?" and his face during the romance scene when Shepard pushes him against the couch were perfect.

Omg and when Diana Allers hit on my femshep I wanted to send her out the airlock (even moreso than usual).

Edit: When you select "Thank you," Shepard says something like, "You make me strong." Then Kaidan says something like, "I want to be your strength; I want to be your soft place to land. I love you."  I prefer the "I love you" option much more.

After looking at the other ME3 romances, I think we Kaidan fans are really lucky and spoiled. Only Liara really seems to have a one-up on Kaidan's scenes and arc.

On a completely unrelated note, I think I'm going to be girly and paint my fingernails with a N7 color scheme/design to try and cheer up.
I got a text this morning from my mother that said, "What's wrong with you? You've been acting so depressed and distant for a week." Whelp, I guess mothers do know best. Has anyone else been questioned on their emotional state?


Yeah, personally, I felt Kaidan's romance was perfect, and I didn't quite realize why some people were so up in arms about the other romances until I saw them. I feel for them.

I too have been depressed, tired... my mom thinks it's because I'm sick, but I can't explain to her why I'm really depressed. It's been eight days since I finished the game!

I just replayed it to see what would happen if you turned down Kaidan and sure you cuddle but after the dream you still wake up in bed in nothing just about and so is he. Not that I'm going to complain. Posted Image
Still I like the cuddling option or calling up. One time I hope rumors are true about a romance dlc.


What does Shepard say when you pick "Thank you" instead of "I love you"? and what's Kaidans reply to that?

 
You get kaidan talking about how he wants to be your soft place to land and he loves you.

Edit: For once I want prothy to help miss Allers or whatever out the air lock. I tried giving her a chance but she also made trouble with the crew other than flirt with you. Makes me more upset that they even pick her to be a romance rather than vega now >.<

Anyone else take Kaidan on the raid of TIM's space station? I loved his reactions to the videos on Shepard's reanimation.

Yeah, what are the LI options for femshep in ME3? Kaidan, Garrus and Liara, right? And I guess Samantha Traynor, but that's more like Kelly Chambers thing, right?

I was under the impression from the email that he didn't cheat with the doctor and that when he sent you that email his friends had literally just talked him into going for drinks with her in order for him to try and move on, then Shepard comes back from the dead and sends him right back to square one again. So he didn't actually cheat at all.

 
*snip* 

*snip*

*snip* 

*snip*

*snip*

I always thought that more happened with the doctor than he let on, but I don't think he really cared about her either. It's like that scene from When Harry Met Sally:

Sally: Harry I think this takes a long time. It might be months before we're actually able to enjoy going out with someone new.
Harry: Yah...
Sally: And may be longer, before we're actually able to go to bed with someone new.
Harry: Oh I went to bed with her
Sally: You went to bed with her?
Harry: Sure.
Sally: Oh.

I mean three years is a really long drought. In my playthrough I always imagine that he's not upset because Shepard hooked up with someone else, but that she was emotionally involved. Does anyone know if he asks about one of the non-acheivement LIs in the hospital scene if you hooked up with them? Or if Ash reacts if BroShep had renegade sex with Jack?

I still want there to be a "We were on a break!" conversation option with him in the cafe scene. 

Edit: Long pyramid quote is long. Snipped for readability.


Well I don't know about that. The vibe I get from Kaidan is that he wouldn't sleep with someone unless he really cares about her. I mean he was always so cautious and stuff, one night stands might not be his thing... Or maybe I just don't want to imagine him with some other woman. :sad panda: :(

I love the facial animations so much more now, too. Not just for the romance scenes, either, but the entire game. Makes it a lot easier to get nice screenshots of Shepard, instead of scanning every scene from the past two games trying to find a non-derpy moment. The expressions just add to the emotional depth of the game... Although Kaidan's expressions during the Earth part of the game seem like he has a hangover or he's really drunk, his eyelids are drooping a bit too much :P

I hate the flirting in the game when you CLEARLY have a chosen romantic interest already! Vega's flirting is all auto-dialogue or else you act like a jerk, Samantha's flirting creeped me out, and I just told off Allers. 
Did Samantha feel like fanservice to anyone else? Not that I took the option, but two women in a shower together sounds like something a college guy would dream up :? And I'm not sure what Allers could be called ASIDE from fanservice.


:wub: Do you have that line on YouTube at all? I'd love to hear it, but how could you humanly turn Kaidan down?

Mmmm Kaidan figure! I was wondering how they would do the romance DLC since there are so many options.

Is anyone here actually going to buy the Kaidan action figure (granted that they actually come out)? If the DLC was good, I might be tempted, but I'm not sure what I would do with him... I could set him between my Legolas action figure and Gandalf action figure, I'm sure they'd all enjoy having tea on Tuesdays!

It might be like something from Mr & Mrs Smith where they're out to dinner, **** hits the fan and the Shepard and his/her LI end up kicking arse in a dinner dress and tuxedo. Now THAT would be fun!

Yes I took Kaidan with me. I was really glad he got to actully see evidence and his response was so sweet. Plus I loved how he reacted to the human repear and how he wished he was there with you. Also I noticed on the Legion mission when they plug you into their consensus how incredibly protective he becomes:O Did anyone elese notice that? He gets all worried about you and is constantly watching you.

Nope it's not romance DLC. Per article

The BioWare site also adds: "They are slightly randomized during the registration and could include powerful new weapons and new characters. The pack could also include character boosters, weapon modifications, and weapon upgrades to make your multiplayer squad stronger."


Here is the link- Article from January 23rd

I have a sneaking suspicion that the DLC will be an alternate appearance and/or a new weapon.  There's no way they'd attach story content to the action figures, right?  I mean, they'd have to make the DLC available for purchase on its own then.

Also, that tea party is giving me funny mental pictures.

Well it's not like he was expecting Shepard to come back.  I just hate the idea of him being FOREVER ALONE if Project Lazarus hadn't started up.  Of course, this is my headcannon for my Shep who moved on in ME2.  My headcanon for my loyal Shep is totally different.  Man, it's hard to keep track of all my complex, imaginary universes.

And you're right.  Everything Kaidan says or does in ME1 indicates that he's very cautious with relationships.

The Kaidan romance is done so well in 3. His personality has really improved as well, I always thought he was a cutie, but he really developed in a lot of ways. Personally, I've always felt his romance felt the most natural and least awkward, since he had mutual feelings for you from the start. I've never liked the romances where you have to choose really obvious and kind of creeper dialogue to begin. If I wasn't perfectly content with his romance, I'd be upset that Femshep doesn't seem to get as many options as Maleshep.

Her heart wouldn't be in it?! After he told her he loves her? That's harsh, glad I didn't try that one out! Man, who could resist that face,,, that voice! Lol.

... Also, default female Shepard is bloody awful looking isn't she LOL.

Awesome.  I saw a video where instead of Kaidan saying, "I've always loved you, through all these years, through everything," he says, "I love you too, until the end of time."  Does he say this if you cheated on him and then got back together with him?  My playthrough was loyal.

Edit: Yeah every customized femshep I've seen looks better than the default femshep in ME3.

I think he may say that if you start a new romance with him rather than continuing. Just a guess though. :)

Default fem Shep's face is too cartoony and big, it almost looks too big for the rest of her body. I dunno why they didn't base her default appearance on some model, like they did with default male Shepard. We could have all picked from several RL faces.

At Least I'm not the only one who thought he was super protective there! I always found it so sweet that I can't believe the ending of this game ends with the final goodbye scece. My heart is just holding onto hope. They made him so perfect and now after everything they can't be together. No... you can see in Legions VI mission, TIM's Base, Romance Scenes, Goodbye Scene, Date Scene, Coup Scene, everywhere that he would do anything for Shepard. I won't believe this is the end! I'm sorry, I'm still so emotional over this! *Hugs Kaidan Pillow*

I did take him on both.  And ditto on what Silverpearl said.  The Kaidan romance was one of the few things that got me to finish the playthrough.  It was incredibly well done.  :wub:

The farewell scene really puts into context what Raphael Sbarge had said on his audioblog last October:

And today, we did the last scene in the game. It was intense and emotional and, for the ladies, I can say it’s pretty rip-your-heart-out. The director is up in Canada, and the writers there as well, and they’re sort of called/patched through, so I hear them on the line, and we were all really choked up by that last scene. It was beautifully written and exciting to be a part of this whole journey of Kaidan.

I wish they were so choked up that they actually wanted to change the outcome!
