I wish they would market him already! I am so excited to actually SEE him in game instead of just the N7 edition alternate armor.

And I mean, yeah, I technically can wait until the demo but an in game screenshot of Kaidan would brighten my day. Or week. Or forever, ha. That's so true, though. They've showed every person except for Kaidan, and we've seen plenty of Ash now.

I just saw that tweet and nicely replied how cool that is and anyway or chance can we get an ingame shot. It's a long shot but might aswell ask.:wizard:

Also the leg thing was just from the DLC armour shot :pinched:

We've seen the major squad now save from Kaidan...it's annoying :crying:


Thats a great Idea! I'll tweet him as well about it! I did tweet Jessica about it yesterday but no response either.

And Oh! No wonder I couldn't find it! Thank you for clearing that up! ^_^

@Carine- I feel the same way! I think we Kaidanites need to *politely* keep requesting and asking about some in-game shots of Kaidan because I agree it's annoying when every character that has been confirmed to be part of the squad except him has been shown at least once. :( Raphael has done way more publicity for Kaidan then the ME Marketing team. :?

Also there is no Kaidan on this page so here have some Kaidan's I found on tumblr! :P

That's not totally true, no ingame Femshep either (which is when I think they will show Kaidan). 

I was so excited in the beginning, too. They had that shot of Kaidan in the gameinformer and then this whole campaign choosing default femshep. Then it all just died. 

It's as if they were like, "Ok there you go, we gave you a few images. Now stop your whining so we can focus on what everyone cares about. The omni blade, Liara, and multiplayer :wizard:

Hopefully the femshep trailer is a cinematic and has cinematic Kaidan. That's why we haven't seen him. HOPEFULLY that is the case.

Still waiting to get up close and personal with Kaidan in the ME3 Marketing Bioware! <_<

I also found this tweet about Kaidan in the twitter thread! ^_^

"Anything you can say about Kaidan in Mass Effect 3?"

"I like the way he's matured. He's really come in to his own as a soldier. And a leader."


Also I just rewatched the GTTV episode thoroughly making sure I didn't miss anything this time around and I didn't see any glimpse of Kaidan, I know someone said they saw his leg but I seriously can't find it. :P Did anyone else find it or have a screenshot to share of it?

You know...

If I was asked to describe ME3!Kaidan in one sentence, it would totally be it. I agree with Mac Walters:huh:?

And about swaying Kaidan - I totally like how he looks in Ursa armor. If there wasn't blue front light and only olive skinned Kaidan in grey costume :)

Have I missed something, or am I right in thinking that the only announced, permanent squadmate who hasn't been seen in *ingame* screenshots is Kaidan?

I'm getting a little annoyed at this point.


I bet we don`t see Kaidan in promotion anymore, not even in the FemShep Trailer <_<

*delurkes*
I still hope we do, but actually I have the same feeling like Snuggles...:(...and we don't see him!
Besides that I'm counting the days, ME3 will be released and I will squee when Kaidan will show up for the first time on the screen.
Oh well, at least I have TOR for distracting me until then ;)

*goes back in lurking mode*

Has there been any word on the femshep trailer? I'm hoping it will be out before the demo and hoping even more that Kaidan will feature in it.

Just the usual canned "It's coming soon" speech :| they did say that it'd definitely be before the game, though, lol. I don't expect them to keep their word.

I hope they don't feel like blonde femshep thing bit them in the butt... :?:( I was a bit disapointed with the community on that one. Not everyone some people had legit issues, but some of the comments on there made me really gnash my teeth. I voted for brunette femshep, I was pretty she wasn't going to win but I didn't rage about it either. 

Anyway I don't want to rehash that I just wanted to say I hope the whole experience didn't put off Bioware in giving the fan girls their FemShep and Kai-Kai goodness. :o

snip... as for passion - Kaidan has passion.  he shows it at times, he shows it to femshep in private moments or when pushed to the brink, but he is also a mature man and he wouldn't have only gotten more seasoned over the years and with all the promotions, and it would ****** me off like you woudln't beleive if they give him outbursts for the sake of dramaz, despite them not being in character. and he might confront Shepard for leading him on, but he woudln't fight the other man(or woman) for her.  at least not the Kaidan we know so far.

Thane is far too self posessed and controlled to do any of that either, in fact - you only have to see Thane, Garrus and Jacob's reactions to triangles in ME2 to see how they would react (or Kaidan in ME1 for that matter)

and honestly, i'll just come out and say it.  I find the whole "I want them to fight for me" - juvenile.  sorry.  but I do.


I know he does, and it's the restraint that makes me want to needle him, (one of my many character flaws), and also what made me like him over Liara. I'm not a fan of jealousy and it turned me right off in ME1 when he got snippy about Liara. I'd be happy to see him snap at the Council, not LI #2.0.

I can maybe see him giving new LI an "if you ever do anything to hurt her, I'm a Spectre, I operate outside the law, and I know where you sleep" thing, but that would be it.  I think he'd realize that he left things a little up in the air after Horizon.  I'm sure he'd talk to Shepard about their relationship, but ultimately if he was going to be upset with anyone it would be Shepard for her decision, not the new LI for falling for her.  I mean, she's Shepard, who wouldn't want to hit that?

Maybe we should start a new thread in the general discussion forum about how Kaidan's new armor objectifies him/is stereotyping/breaks immersion/doesn't fit in an RPG and rage until will get a new screenshot.  Seems to work most of the time for other characters.

My first playthrough I never had the confrontation because I did Noveria before I recruited Liara, by which point the relationship must have been deemed to be already established. Next playthrough was as a male shep and I wanted a confrontation (he's a bit of a flirt, Liara in ME1, then Tali in ME2 but he also had fun with the consort on the Citadel and he got Kelly to "feed his fish", and got a kiss on the cheek from both Shiala and Parsini when reuniting with them on Illium). But then I did another femshep and despite telling Liara I was not in any way interested and had no feelings for her whatsoever, I _still_ had to go through that choice, and it felt really odd because I'd told Ash, Kaidan and Liara to her damn face that I wasn't interested. I felt a bit guilty, sorry Kaidan I thought I was clear, I didn't mean to say the wrong thing and lead Liara on... awkward! 

Sometimes I want to see some tension between characters - one of my favorite bits of ME2 is the Jack / Miranda conversation - but I would like some way to ensure that a romantic response or a romantic initiator is highlighted somehow to ensure that I don't end up saying the wrong thing to someone. And the counter - which line would initiate the end or suspension of a potential romance. You can't second-guess how lines will sound when read or how other characters will respond to them, so the only safeguard is the save button before each conversation, and inevitable rollback when you realise that you just unintentionally flirted.

I'd very much like not seeing any LI telling that. Shepard is perfectly fine dealing with own business, and I don't see anything romantic in ex boyfriend keeping tabs on someone's relationships with current boyfriend. You see, I'm not into half measures - and, if Kaidan still has feelings to Shepard which had another LI in ME2, he'd better clear the air with Shepard immediately and either reunite with her or leave her alone and be strictly professional.

Unfortunately I agree with this.  Maybe it's being pessimistic, but at least if Kaidan does show up I'll be pleasantly surprised.

If he's matured and become a leader then surely Kaidan (and Ashley too) deserve their own comic / graphic novel / book / interactive game to explain how they have accomplished that. Jacob had Galaxy, there are stories of the background of TIM and stories for Anderson and Liara. While I'm enjoying the Invasion series so far, there is a definite gap in the storyline. How has Kaidan matured to this point, what's he been up to for the past 2+ years? Promotions happen as a result of actions, so let's hear about those actions! While I imagine some of it will be covered in ME3 we'll likely only get a passing summary in a couple of dialog interactions (though we can hope for more!)

Welcome! :wizard:

I think Kaidan had that sort of effect with everyone, I was a late comer to the ME series aswell!


Is it so bad that I was attracted to him from the moment he said "Nihlus gave you a compliment, so you hate him"? That little smirk after the beacon just sealed Shepard's fate. :wub:

Lol i went into game the other day with my 2 year old in his pushchair, i got an awful lot of funny looks. A gamer and a mother?! Made me laugh :)


LOL! My husband will be home with my son when I go pick up my collector's edition of ME3 at midnight. It will be interesting to see the crowd composition.

I love going to midnight releases. Modern Warfare 3 was my last and aside from a mom there with her 10 year old son, I was the only woman. The looks I get are amusing. And playing it online I've gotten a few 'Hey, there's a girl in here. Wtf!?' Hopefully, I won't have to wait in line for a hour and a half for ME 3. Don't make me cut in line, people. xD

Him im a girl from Sweden in my 30s. I love Bioware games especially Mass effect and Dragon age origins and ofc Kaidan<3<3<3. I have been in lurkmood a long time but decided to delurk and say hello. Im not sure how much I will post cause i tend to forget I signed up at places now and then:lol:.

Im a late comer to mass effect series, I actually finished it on Xbox last year, even though I have in on pc aswell. I finished Mass effect 2 recently and am now patiently waiting for Mass effect 3.

For the longest time i thought Mass effect was nothign for me even though online friends told me to try it but finally I did and was hooked.

I hated Horizon and cant wait to see kaidan back in Me 3 nice to mee you all.

Sorry for any grammar mistakes.

it is somewhat creepy/stalkerish. i am however chronically indecisive about romances, and usually string them along to the last minute so i can go back and change it if neccessary. therefore in my games at least it is all Shep's fault if either LI gets a bit clingly. Image IPB



also - hello silver! i'm a recent delurker too!  Image IPB
