After watching the romance on Youtube, I think I'm going to have to start a new Sheploo playthrough just for Kaidan. And maybe one for Cortez too, he's pretty sweet. I usually prefer playing FemShep, but they really did a great job with the SS male romances in ME3!

Indeed they did. Both m/m romances are really nice! <3

I think so too, and I love your banner btw hehe. i may have to roll a maleshep or 2..

Ehh no offence but this "indoctrination" theory is just "it was all a dream" and smells like something from Dynasty to me lol ;P Hope they don't run with it

Agreed, it's a horrible plot device but it's the only way I can make sense of any of what happened. Especially Shepard just giving up at the end and the Normandy flying to pick some ice up from Pluto.

I also agree ( sorry for bring late to the party, stupid slow giant thunder/lighting storms rolled through.) I'd rather it be a dream though if they're planning on keeping it though... just seems more wrong if it isn't... I am hoping the redo the whole thing from the beacon/beam on....(granted I still haven't finished the game tee hee.... but i haz youtube.)

I LOVE working for my happy ending. Like Fable 3, for example, you needed to raise 14 million gold (or whatever currency) in order to be purely evil in the end, they game throws every easy way out at you possible, and getting the "best" ending is fairly simple - If you act like a jerk and break all your friendships and promises. But earning all that money by myself, which spent hours of "press A when the meter is full" mini games, really felt like an accomplishment. Well, except that there was only really one ending of that game.
But still, I love the feeling of accomplishing something. That's why I've done every single sidequest in all three ME games (except the Asari writings one...) If they did include a super hard to get good ending, I'd be happy.

And on a random note, I had a dream last night that Kaidan, Liara, Thane, and I were sitting in the Normandy's lounge discussing whether or not Dany should have died from eating a raw horse heart. Your avatar just reminded me of that 

LOL!  I've had weird dreams like that, though not that combination.  A GoT/ME crossover would be either amazing or completely cracked out...

As for Fable 3, I heard about the money sink thing, and left my xbox on overnight for a few days to earn enough for the "best" ending.  I can't help it, lol, if I hear about an easy exploit like that, I use it.  Although if Fable 3 had more engaging ways to earn money than the minigames, I would wait until my second playthrough to be a cheating cheater...

I think what *really* turned me off ME3 was learning that there is no way to get the breathing scene at the end without MP.  I didn't care about multiplayer when it was announced, because my thought was that as long as it didn't affect my single player game, I was cool with it.  Now I learn that it MUST be done to "win" in SP, and it makes me resent it and not want to play at all...

How exactly did Bioware decide that alienating fans was a good idea???

OK. I gave up pain pills for alcohol. Whos on Xbox Multiplayer? .

As for shepard being well shepard.
Random Person: Augh, I'm bleeding from this gunshot!
Shepard: Oh, are you hurt?
Random Person: uh..wha..I just said...
Shepard: were you shot?
Random person: ....

I'm jumping on MP now.  Yay!  And what about pain pills and alcohol?  Actually... scratch that.  Seems like a bad idea.

Edit: Snap, forgot I had an essay to write  MP will have to wait until tomorrow.


Haha, I've seen that Animal House vid. Loved the bit about Liara and the cats, and EDI's iChildren. Makes me eye my iPhone just a bit more warily now...

Essays? PFfffffff. Wing it, thats what I do.

 I like the way you think. Unfortunately, I'm teetering on the edge of falling below failure level in the class, which I'm ashamed to admit, and tomorrow morning is the final. Can't lose any more points... Makes me miss the days of high school, when failure didn't matter <_< Not that I like to make a habit of failing, I just find that saving the galaxy is a much more important matter than a thesis paper relating the story of Tom Bombadil to the story of Beowulf using Plato's Simile of the Line.

...Money sink glitch? That would've come in handy, I was pretty tired of pie making and lute playing. I'm the Queen of the country, and in order to save it, I have to make pies...? Not to mention the pie shopkeeper has no problem screaming at me for dropping the rolling pin. Lady, I can get you exiled in a snap of my fingers 

I know, after they went on and on about how you could achieve the best ending possible without MP... Is it really possible to get a full 10,000 assets? I barely managed to get 7,200, and that was with the DLC. How the heck will we be able to play this game in five years when the servers shut down? It's inevitable they will, EA tends to close them after two years or so... Enjoy the endings while we can, I guess?

I wonder what Bioware would be like today, had they not been bought out?

I just replayed ME3, and got the "good" ending. Now that I'm completely depressed I'll be playing some MP if anyone wants to play.

[sugaafoot]

I dont know, I think you can get the "good ending" without Multiplayer. I did every single mission except for 2 that I forgot about and had over 4500 EMS. I only played Multiplayer once. Unless multiplayer gave me a ton of points.. then i have no clue.

More DLC with XP/war-asset opportunities, of course 

(though, if the endings aren't changed, the answer will instead be: "we won't")

I believe each match gives you 4-7% EMS. I think some of it must depend on your past game choices, too, but that wouldn't be too fair for new players, or PS3 players.


I think Kaidan's got some bugged dialogue on Eden Prime. During the shuttle ride, his mouth moves like he's still talking, but all you hear is a cough. Would've been nice to know what he had to say.

[sagefic]

hi kaidanites

sooo, question for you all re: dialog i'm trying to parse out.

in me1, if you choose the 'renegade' investigate re: Rahna, how do you interpret Kaidan's reaction? yes, two teens making out but 'keeping clothes on' or ah, no, kaidan was too shy/gentlemanly to make a move on her?

given the heartbreak, i could see this going either way, but previously, i would have guessed she was the unattainable girl. curious as to your thoughts.

could be both
maybe they made out once before snapping turian's neck incident?
or he is too nice and was friendzoned by Rahna

[LadyofRivendell]

I kinda got the feeling, at least in my opinion, that Kaidan was too shy to make the first move, aside from the subtle things. Especially with his first crush/real love.
But I'm bad and/or inexperienced at that kind of stuff, so I'm not sure. That's just my interpretation.

I feel the same way. In Fable 3 I felt really acclompished because I became an entrepreneurial beast and kept all of my promises/made all of the "Good" decisions and still saved every single civilian. It felt amazing to have your brother admit he was wrong and you could be a benevolent ruler and still save the kingdom. If I had to replay all 3 games to make sure I did everything I could to get a happy ending I would danggit. Why couldn't Bioware let us have that?

On the dream thing, why a horse's heart?
Dreams are random, but at least it wasn't about the Star Child.

Edit: @LadyJess I don't think he says anything on that part, at the very least the subtitles don't have anything extra. To me it looks like he says the same line twice but the first time includes only the lip movements and none of the sound.

I always interpreted that he had never quite managed to make a move. Rahna was either oblivious or uninterested, or both. Given the age they would have been at the time, it could easily have gone either way, but from how he talked about it I felt like they both had a serious case of horribly awkward and not-properly-socialized-because-we're-stuck-on-a-space-station-in-the-middle-of-nowhere teenageritis. But that's just me.

This is about what I imagine too - he really liked her and they did a lot of talking but never really went past that.

I have the scene recorded, maybe I'll try using my (nonexistent) lip synching reading abilities and try to figure it out.


So... is it completely evil of me to want to write a parody of the crew's fate after crashing on the unknown planet?

Not at all. I consider the ability to laugh about it a good coping mechanism. I could use a good laugh concerning that part of the ending 

[Lady Jess]

Sooo all my planets are scanned. I finished Eden Prime, and I have a message asking Vetta to Dinner. EVERYONE wants to go play on the Citadel. Do I go...or wait, that is the question. If I go, it'll be a long long time before there's any Kaidan goodness with Vetta. So I'm thinking Go get Tali, Then do all the citadel stuff? Or can I do both Tali and Thessia before I go there...must sleep on it.

All the Citadel dates were fantastic - Kaidan's obviously was brilliant, so sweet. Garrus was really awesome, it was a lovely chance to catch up with squaddies. Not sure what order you need to do things in to make sure those scenes remain available, though.

[LadyofRivendell]

 Speaking of the Citadel date... Just caught this expression:





Tempted to caption that, "O RLY ?"
I love getting screenshots  You really do find the oddest moments.

I think that's the "Batarian Shard wine" line and I think it looks even funnier when Sheploo makes that face, or maybe it's just the way he says it.
Here's the Sheploo video btw.

Yes, my thoughts exactly.  As it stands now with 0 DLC or whatever you can maybe just get enought for the "good" ending????  I'm trying a second playthrough to see how close I get w/out MP...I was close the 1st time but I also missed some things on the Citadel in the beginning because I was a little lost with the journal - kept looking for it to update or something...

I guess, its really a mute point anyway as not many of us feel like multiple playthroughs.  It just makes me wonder if they really thought this was the best way to end the game how people could continue to play this in years to come w/out the online MP support.

If you pick the right choices throughout the trilogy, the most you can achieve is around 7,500 total assets.

There are not even 8,000 assets attainable in the single-player campaign, so without playing multiplayer or using the iOS apps, there is no way to get the final two possibilities. I think you can get enough for the middle ending regardless (although you probably have to cover most or even all of the content with 50% readiness), but it's not possible to see the bonus video through single-player alone.
