well, for MEC I pretty much have to be up to speed when it comes to new info that we might be able to use ... so if they shift the combat from Sur'Kesh to Palaven I'd be happy as a clam

I can't really avoid spoilers, though if it's like last time with some idiot spamming the forum with MASSIVE PLOT REVEALING THREAD TITLES before they can be taken down ... that would suck
but he things BioWare opts to reveal prior to the game, I'm usually okey with
except for that super-spoilery german trailer ... that was ... o_O

New screenshots on the Mass Effect page, but no Kaidan. And I was getting hopeful too when I saw biotics in the thumbnail:

Good news: trailer is in new location (Mars?), some new guns, engineer!Shepard.

Bad news: Liara/Garrus again, pure combat, minute length.

Edit: whoa, new page? You're fast:)

Brand new trailer posted 2 hours ago. There's a link on Facebook from the Mass Effect and Bioware accounts.

Yup.  I was hopeful that putting him in that initial screenshot meant that Kaidan would get more coverage in marketing this time around, but I should have known.

BioWare probably was drunk that night when they put Kaidan next to Sheploo and Liara on the announcement screen. When they sobered up, they've probably thought "Ohh wait! We can't be putting Kaidan instead of everyone's favourite Garrus who's been so neglected this entire trilogy after being a poster character for ME1 and appearing as a perma squaddie in both games" Why do they even keep asking people on twitter what they want to see in ME3 promo material/screenshots? Sorry, I'm venting...

remember, for them...maybe we're just a minority, according to their numbers, only few players have saved Kaidan.

I love it how BioWare first makes him dead by default for ManShep (played by 80%+ of gamers) in new game mode and then pretends it's the players who killed him

While Kaidans not my favorite character I too am getting tired of seeing Garrus and Liara. Why not Ashley or Kaidan or someone else, who cares who popular. The only way characters become popular is if you market them and feature them in the game alot.

lol I almost choked on my drink..... I laughed because it's true... but then I thought about it again and It's not so funny.

It's both funny and sad at the same time really lol

It's actually very true:

Liara - huge plot involvement & plot armor, dedicated DLC, dedicated comic series
Garrus - poster character for ME1, permanent squadmate in 2 games
Tali - permanent squadmate in 2 games
Ashley - poster character for ME1
Miranda - poster character for ME2

Also notice how 4/5 of these are chicks and the sole guy is considered the most 'bro' bale in the franchise. Not a coincidence. Yet despite Kaidan not being aided by huge in-game/story involvement, permanent sqadmate status in both games or marketing and then even put at an additional disadvantage due to not being a default VS for ManShep in ME2 on X360, he is still very popular, his threads on BSN were always among the biggest, there's tons of Kaidan fanarts and fanfics. This show popularity can't be adequately measured just by in-game end statistics. :happy:

Yep, that's pretty much how I reacted, too.

Are you suggesting that 80% of all ME2 players used the default Maleshep in the game? I think you are reading it wrong.

well, but he's only default dead if you didn't import an ME1 game, otherwise it *was* the player who killed or saved him
I'm only curious if the numbers of Kaidan-savers would be different if Kaidan was a legitimate romance option for male Shepards ... I know there are those poor peeps who are insecure about their own sexuality and if Kaidan made the slightest hints of advances towards their manly man Shepard, they'd nuke him on Virmire just to make sure that never happens again ...

or reversed: I wonder how many people only saved Ashley because they were romancing her
and if the possibility of the ME2 romances made them regret their decision ... they might make another playthrough, but the original Ashley romancing and thus saving playthrough and the stats send to BioWare would still exist

I'd like to see the numbers of who was the VS in relation to who romanced who just out of curiousity

I did not find that funny, but I am depressed to day so nothing funny at the moment.

Anyway I would come on the thread more but i'm frighted that if I say anything everyone will shout and beat me to death.

No no, I said he was dead by default (as in Ashley was the VS) for ALL ManSheps in ME2 for X360 in new game mode. And more than 80% of players use male Shepard (only about 19% use FemShep according to BioWare statistics for ME2).

Anyway, I'm better now, let's go back to our standard routine

No, he's saying that the players that used Manshep in ME2 without importing had Kaidan dead by default if they didn't use the ME1 comic(though i'm not sure about the accuracy of that number).

Fair enough, just the way you presented it made it look like you stated what I just wrote.

I arrived wayyy to late to jump back into the spoiler discussion. This thread moved so fast today!

By the way, Manipulations Ch. 59 is up.



Edit:
Sorry!!! I didn't realize! Thanks Isaac!

TOP Kaidan is sad(ish) today because he doesn't get much press attention. Well...IRL he probably wouldn't want much press attention...but youknowwhatImean.
