Well, my Shep didn't die in ME3, so hopefully, they would be reunited soon. I really wish Bioware would release a patch specifically for the aftermatch. In the Destroy ending, Shep is still alive, so there's a chance for them to be together again.


Agreed, and welcome:), just noticed that you joined BSN a few days ago

The third one would be my first Mass Effect game. I kinda skip over the first two games because I kinda find it unfair you can't pursue a gay relationship like with Dragon Age. Also, having Kaidan around and can't be romanced would be such a tease. :P I did play the other two at my friends' house though.

Thanks for the welcome. I'll be sure to be sticking around. :happy:

Regarding the "are you flirting with me" line thing...I only managed to get it after I locked-in romanced Kaidan. My Garrus-mancing Shep never got it. As for inviting you to steak sandwiches after the Ex-Cerberus Scientists mission, you always get that banter even if you've had dinner with him in the Citadel already or not.

This is really bothering me now. I thought for sure it wasn't a romance specific line (aren't there even people here who do it before the date specifically because they think it works better with his "steak" line)?

I could've sworn it was the same as the hospital "flirting" line (you just need the romance to be active instead of needing TrueLove).

Maybe I'm misremembering? Oh, well. I don't have ME3 installed to look at it anyway. (And I always do the date first in my playthroughs, so not really that important to me.)

@devsin I usually do the citadel dates before the ex-cerberus scientists mission, so maybe that's a factor? Even then, my douche Shep turned down Kaidan and then answered Garrus than leaving Kaidan for later to get his friendship lines...so maybe that's a factor too? :'D

Edit: Theory time: (Disclaimer: I don't hate Miri, I LOVE HER!!!) Maybe Mirimancers get the "are you flirting" line too because the game seems to think the player is available for Kaidan--because the game doesn't consider Miri as a "main romance" (dodges arrows). I would have loved an actual Miri romance in ME3 though; would've made another M!Shep for her <_<

Also lookey lookey someone got the floating Kaidan bug in that 3rd Leviathan mission like I did (with special participation from Vega lol); I'm not alone :'D
heeeeeey sexay laydeeeeh (LOL JOKE WTH)~

You know that scene after the Cerberus Mission with Jacob where Kaidan is all "Those were good people right?" Well, I always thought the "Are you flirting with me?" "If you have to ask, I'm out of practice. Later, you'll have to let me practice line" scene was always romance spesific.

Romance specific content? In ME3? You're kidding me... 8E

Ok, ok, that was sarcasm. And as for that line - I had it before locking up in ME3 (but staying fathful since ME1 - not sure if it matters). Other than dinner, quick drink and goodby - only true "romance specific" thing I know is "next time wake me" banter. I do not consider DLCs (and EC is also a DLC).  

Maybe Mirimancers get the "are you flirting" line too because the game seems to think the player is available for Kaidan--because the game doesn't consider Miri as a "main romance" (dodges arrows).

 
And that was my thoughts too.

If I'm remembering right, there should be two states: inactive, and TrueLove. When you commit to somebody, they're TrueLove, and everybody else is made inactive (except Diana, and possibly Kelly). And apparently there are other conditions for whether a particular romance is still active (like people say choosing all "renegade" responses with Kaidan can kill his romance early; there's also gender of course, and import-only options default to inactive).

The "wake me up" line is TrueLove. But I thought the flirting was simply a check to make sure it wasn't inactive (so it would happen for both the active romance and for TrueLove), and I thought I even checked it in the past (I wanted to see what lines were actually meant for the romance and which were static).

If you already turned Kaidan down or did something else to make him ineligible for romance, then it definitely shouldn't play. But I guess the question is whether it requires TrueLove or just requires an active romance (I've never tried importing a character with a previous romance, so maybe that does something as well).

@devsin It's forever a mystery then :'D Can't have the heart to romance any other option anymore to test...even if Garrus' was fun, I sorely missed Kaidan (yeaaaaaah, I'm that sensitive for him). In fact, I seem to not have the heart to play any more ME3 these days...lol (my poor other playthroughs).

@Mimi thank you~ :'D I was getting frustrated with the avatar thing since Sunday. So glad it finally worked. You're all making me jelly with the hi-rez pics :3 Hopefully more Kaidan gets rid of the cold for good :P

Ahah, yes :P - although I think the lines are exactly the same for Ash or Kaidan. Or maybe not all of it, i don't know. Ash also says "Don't Ash me!", which was a bit disappointing at first, but then it fits her relationship with Shepard and her character well too.

Ash on Mars >


EDIT> oh, it's so lovely :)

Yeah, the conditional is a lot more complex than I thought.

(((plot.bools[19722] == false) && (plot.bools[21750] == false) && (plot.bools[19846] == false) && (plot.bools[19726] == false) && (plot.bools[19725] == false) && (plot.bools[20008] == false) && (plot.bools[19835] == false) && (plot.bools[19838] == false) && (plot.ints[10321] >= 10) && (plot.bools[19728] == false)) || (plot.bools[19723] == true))

I don't know what all those flags are (I know some are TrueLove for the other romances), but it's either that whole list of plot flags needs to be false and Kaidan's "points" need to be at least 10 (I *think* 10321 stores the points for how much Kaidan likes you—it's used in other conditionals for him) OR you need TrueLove (19723 is Kaidan's TrueLove).

So the easiest way to get it is to have TrueLove (i.e., after the date), but it still should be possible if you have a strong enough relationship with him and all that other crap is false.

In contrast, the conditional for "wake me" is relatively brief (you just need TrueLove):

((plot.ints[10165] == plot.ints[10174]) && (plot.bools[22182] == false) && (plot.bools[19723] == true))

@Mimi The "are you even the same Shepard" talk is different with her though :3 BUT MORE OF THEM PLEASE! Spectre-specific mission DLC anyone? :'D
@devsin Mind went blank for a sec there...very complicated indeed :mellow: Also yup, maybe that's why Mirimancers and other sidelined romances still get the "are you flirting" lines from him--the "programming" of the main romances are already complicated enough...

@Mimi I specifically call the "True Love" variable as locked-in romance. It's the romance that cancels all others.

@lindtchoco
Almost time to parteh lindtchoco~ You can do it!

Go for it parteh dancing from Kaidan and friends (Shepard is nodding like "yeah yeah go for it" in a boss kind of way B)B)B)~ )

Now that I'm looking, it appears "You're real enough for me." on Mars is also supposed to be a romance line for new players (but it'll just play for almost everybody, due to the way the game is set up). It's set up to only run if he likes you and you're not locked into another romance. (I think I've had him say it to me in the game before.)

Also, it looks like you need at least 6 points to get the date (there's a bunch of other flags that need to be false, presumably all the relationship flags for other characters). If you don't have a strong enough relationship with him or you have a romance with somebody else, you go straight to his friendship lunch.

@devsin real enough for me in Mars or Cerb Headquarters? If it's in Mars (the husky Cerb trooper was what you were referring to, I think?), I do seem to recall it being different with my non-import Shep...don't remember how though

@Mimi Uhhh, just saying that I do, personally I guess...haha~ But I usually do it in my guides and transcripts, though (like in the after the Ex-Cerb Scientists mission cutscene in my Normandy banter transcipts) :3

All the main romances (the squad and Steve and Sam) have their own TrueLove (LiaraTrueLove, GarrusTrueLove, etc.). Only one of them should ever be set.

Vigilant111 wrote...

Ach, you're right.

So that's also a romance line in the main game. (The fourth and final one, outside of the date and sex scenes, it looks like.)

So there's the flirting in the hospital, the flirting after Jacob's mission, "wake me up", and this line on Cronos.

Shepard: One-two-three, One-two-three, one-two-three - COME ON! I'm not teaching sissies! Riverdance like you mean it!
James: This is totally loco!
Kaidan: Word of advice - when Shepard starts sleep-walking - *fearful* You FOLLOW HER ORDERS.
James: Loco! She's teaching dancing lessons in her sleep!
Kaidan: Just be glad she hasn't made you breakdance.
James: ... She taught you breakdancing?!

*claps hands* Nice code exctraction job! 8) Looks like true - no other locks&good score OR Lock.

Now that I'm looking, it appears "You're real enough for me." on Mars is also supposed to be a romance line for new players

Why only new? It is romance-specific for import as well. And it's Cronos, as was already mentioned. I forgot about it, yeah - second romance-specific line. through the game.

Also, it looks like you need at least 6 points to get the date (there's a bunch of other flags that need to be false, presumably all the relationship flags for other characters). If you don't have a strong enough relationship with him or you have a romance with somebody else, you go straight to his friendship lunch.

Interesting. What is pass check for Coup? I think I've seen score list somewhere, but I can't remember. I thought it's impossible to pass Coup check AND stay out of high score. Unless there is some way to loose score after passing check (I wonder where - you have only Normandy talk).

ps: ToP?! Me?! With this?! Thread gods have poor sense of humor today... Ok, ok, i'll try to find something...
