I didn't have a problem leaving Ashley behind. But then I always played as a soldier so having a biotic squadmate like Kaidan was useful.... and I had to save him because it's Kaidan!legbamel wrote...
I never thought the Virmire decision was pointless. Somebody had to stay and protect the bomb because we knew Saren had forces in the area. All they had to do was get a tech person over there to disarm it and our whole mission would have been for naught.Kyria Nyriese wrote...
If it was done properly (i.e. the suicide mission in ME2) and not just a pointless death (i.e. the Virmire decision), then while I wouldn't be happy about it, I would accept it and deal with it, and take my head canon of how my Shepard deals with it. However, if it is another Virmire like decision (which the Citadel Coup is) where his death would have no point what so ever to the story line or whatever happens and was again done just for the emotional response I would be pissed.chibievil wrote...
so i am guessing you all let Ashley die on Virmire and convince Kaidan to backdown on Citadel Coup haha i wondewr what would happen if Biwoare made Kaidan die in the Extended cut how would you all react if you can't even bring yourself to kill him, there would prob be a lot of tissues and tearsKyria Nyriese wrote...

Watched a video on Youtube of Kaidan getting killed in the Citadel... it was horrible, I wish I could unsee it
I couldn't even bring myself to watch it on YouTube. I just can't do it, I can't watch it, I wish I didn't even know it existed.
I didn't have much issue with Virmire the first couple times I played ME, because I didn't take the time to get to know Ashley, I just decided I didn't like her as soon as she revealed herself as Speciest and her religious beliefs. My take on her colored by my own real life experiences with my own religious beliefs being different from others. After a couple of play throughs where I made myself get to know her, and found the deeper character underneath, where I came to see she didn't shove her beliefs down my throat, and as I managed to get her to see our allies as more than just a convenient partnership until things got ugly, I came to really despise the Virmire decision, as in all honesty from a story perspective there was no reason for it other than to evoke an emotional response.
That was one more factor that made deciding to leave Ash there so much easier. Kaidan can deal damage and take some punishment but Ash had an assualt rifle, a sniper rifle, and heavy armor. On top of the biotics and the higher rank, Kaidan just didn't seem like he could hold that position as long as Ash could.I feel bad even saying that about him but you do have to carry him back to the Normandy if you leave him there and go back for him...not that I don't like carrying him around but, really.
