Yes, you can in M1. I don't really know what you are talking about.  After each mission ( Therum, feros, noveria ).  Except  the romance lines, maleshep can know everything about him. Sarah, his past, biotics, this is the same content as for femshep.

The first conversation is not available for mShep though. The one after Eden Prime where he mentions his dad :(

When does he talk about having problems with his father? I don't remember that.


Throw away line in the very first conversation you can have with him after Eden Prime in ME1.  Something about his dad eventually being proud when he enlisted. 

It was a very blink-and-you-miss-it line yes, but I do think it was the purpouse of it to hint about the stigma biotic kids suffered.

Also, pople who only played mShep unfortunately missed it since you couldn't talk to Kaidan after Eden Prime as mShep :(

MShep can't talk to Kaidan right after leaving the Medbay after the Prothean visions.  If you did as a maleShep, that's first I've eaver heard of it.  It was one of the bigger complaints for most Male Shep players.

Something I thought was lacking in the From Ashes dlc if you took Kaidan with you to Eden Prime (and your Shepard is female) he never says anything about the fact that essentially he was the one that caused your Shepard to have to take charge of this whole "defeat the Reapers" thing, since he was the one who accidentally activated the prothean device, which Shepard dragged him away from, thus Shepard ending up witnessing the weird flashbacks.

It would have been nice to see him have a proper little heart-to-heart with her about the past, maybe a little romantic speech about how he fell for her then and there or something... I guess thats something for the fanfics though.

I wouldn't see a problem with having Rahna in there somewhere other than it being something from the past and not worth the effort or resources to bring up. I'd expect by now, Kaidan has grown up enough and become confident in himself such that seeing her wouldn't absolutely send him arse over teakettle. And my Shepard for sure wouldn't be jealous. What for? Rahna was what amounted to a high school crush. It ended badly in ways most high school crushes don't, but still.

I did read a fanfic where Kaidan meets up with Rahna for a drink at some point, and the tables were turned - she was nervous and uncertain, whereas Kaidan had become more self-assured and ends up feeling a bit sorry for Rahna. Then he happily returns to his life with the Alliance and the Normandy crew. And of course Shepard. It gave him a 'goodbye' closure that I thought was nicely done, but darn if I can remember what it was called.

Would have been nice to have a mission to rescue some of Kaidain's students though. Or something involving his new Spectre status. Am I the only one that though it odd Kaidain being a Spectre was more in name than truth? You never hear anything about it beyond the coup and a random "expense reports" line. What a waste!

I love the idea, and since BioWare asked for feedback it is the best time to do it. :P

Throw away line in the very first conversation you can have with him after Eden Prime in ME1.  Something about his dad eventually being proud when he enlisted. 

It was a very blink-and-you-miss-it line yes, but I do think it was the purpouse of it to hint about the stigma biotic kids suffered.

I finished M1 again, 3 days ago with my maleshep. I am pretty sure.  I could talk to Kaidan like always I  did in the past. You need to ask him his opinion after each main mission. ( Therum, Noveria, Feros ) At any rate, I am sure Kaidan talks after Eden Prime in my game.

" Point  Zero, Rahna, biotics, his past. " Like with my femshep ( no romance lines however ) , except that about Rhana, he doesn't say she is beautiful like me ( femshep ), but with maleshep, he just says " you would love her commander, or something like that.

About Liara he does say something different with maleshep as well.

I 'm on xbox.

Ah yes, I didn't have this one with his dad. But I don't remember that with femshep either. :?
When does he say that ? Or better, what did he say ?

Maybe we should take the matters into our own hands. I think it would be a good idea to have a "thank you letter/statement" from Kaidan fanbase to his ME3 writer Cathleen Rootsaert for how well she took over Kaidan combined with a request for Kaidan mission in one of the future DLCs. We could accent that he's one of the very few characters without the loyalty mission and give some of our ideas to consider. No demands or forcing anything, just fans picking up on stuff already mentioned in the ME games and little bits Cathleen Rootsaert already implemented in ME3 - like the search for his students and missing father.

In any case, this is the time to do it since they're setting things up for future DLC. Later it will be too late.


I love this idea! I'd definitely like to pass on my thanks - we could throw a Google doc together or similar and encourage the Kaidanites that want to join in to contribute to it collaboratively perhaps? open to ideas...

To be fair, both he and Ash have unique dialogue in the shuttle on the way to Eden Prime. It wasn't as in-depth as we might have liked, but it was there, and it was a nice nod to ME1.

Must be because the Shep that took Kaidan to Eden Prime was the one I made in Genesis - that or the fact that they hadn't romanced, but I got nothing from him on the way there on my second playthrough. I messed up on my first one and did that one too early while he was still in the hospital - soon as I can play again I'll be able to test it out with him on the squad with a shep who romanced him in 1.

That's possible. All of my playthroughs include ME1 and a romanced Kaidan, and my friend's playthrough included ME1, though he hadn't romanced Ashley, so it doesn't require a romance to get the special dialogue.

Wow! Yes, just like that!

Finally he's back in ME3 and I think my Shepard will fall in love with "someone". ;-)

As much as I love that image of him, TZ, I would really like to see more. Particularly some in game footage.
Also, does anyone know if he will have a casual appearance as well as his armor?


See more of him?
Like this?

Oh, you mean real footage.  I still campaign for this to become real footage.

And great idea to have a spoiler zone and to try to keep the other thread spoiler free so fans don't feel they have to stay away.  :D

I don't know if this has been said before but I remember a while back that someone wanted their shep to glow blue like Kaidan but didn't think there was a way. I just wanted to say that I found out if you use the "barrier" skill you can glow blue too like our handsome Kaidan :-)

Don't all biotics get Barrier in ME1?  If you want it in ME2, you need to pick up Jacob's loyalty power.  Can you get it at all in ME3?

It's a bonus power.  And it's useless.  It's usually unusable on my Adept.

Could work. Maybe everyone would write his/her thank/letter and we would put it together on some mini-website/document and send the link to Cathleen. On the other hand though, I'm not sure if she would have time to read it all lol so I dunno, maybe just have one person who writes well put together a letter that gathers fan thought (the most common/popular ones)? Not sure, I'm just thinking what would be more effective (especially considering the DLC we want ;P)
