@jlb i think it would be a big step up imo,being able to react to a situation with ash the way my hawke did with the various party members to a single convo,i could joke,be blunt,be heroic, be an ass however i want to deal with it.

instead of just: paragon option,indiffrent option,renagade option,thats all.

getting a little dated.

I agree. More options for your PC are always good.

Well, I hope she still qualifies as a tank.

Lol, I do something like that, while playing survival on pinnacle station I would hide Shep in a corner, go do something else for a while, come back and I've got Ash and Wrex still standing killing everything that comes my way. lol.

I dont think Ash will be that over powered in ME3 though, lol.

I expect we'll be treated to a few video's from the ComicCon demo, either during or after the convention. I guess the new outfit might pass as light armor (something like bullet-resistant clothing) but my main bone with it is it clashes with the already established image of Ash. In a sense, Phoenix medium or heavy armor IS Ash...

...and seing her in what looks like a skirt and thing high boots implies someone else than my Shep took her out to dinner!!! *pops a fresh heat sink in his Widow anti-materiel rifle* Time to whittle out the competition...

Looking at Preston W.'s comment: while most players who used Ash in ME1 probably balanced tanking with DPS, it was possible to favor DPS over tanking and vice-versa. Thus the apparently DPS version of Ash in ME3 is one possible natural extension of our ME1 Ash.

I suspect powers along the lines of the old ME1 Talents like Marksman, Assassination, Carnage and Overkill (i.e. for DPS), while James Vega will be using something like Immunity, FirstAid and ShieldBoost (for tanking).

It sounds like a well-balanced pair for a power-heavy Shepard like an Engineer or Adept.

Sorry about subtitles.


That is quite the rugged Shepard. Rugged works for Ashley, I think. Additional huzzah for using battle scars; they always helped...soften the Mary Sue edge Shepard carries.

Gonna have to whip out my camera soon...don't like blurry, cropped pics? Too bad! :P

This post is full of so much win... by both posters involved! XD

Get that camera out kate! I wanna see some more pictures!

I'm very interested to know who Ashley's current writer is, now that Chris L'Etoile has left. This extends to Chris' other characters such as Thane, EDI, etc. I asked Patrick Weekes on Twitter some weeks ago but he never bothered writing me back.



It's obviously badpie... 

hence why they didn't respond. :P

EDIT: ... K, I'm caught up now... lmao! (minus the romancable Ash for new players in ME3... which I really don't want to get into as I'm sure it will start arguments :pinched:)

Ash question time.

Since Bioware has pushed the game back until march they've had tons of time to add things and they've chosen to add to realtionships. that being said alot of people who haven't played Mass Effect will pick up ME3 and be introduced to the series though it. That being said what's your opinion on Ash being a pursuable romance in ME3 with no prior Me1 or 2 saves on the hard drive/memory unit of the system a new palyer plays on?


If the gamers can take up the relationship in ME3 via the so-called extensive save geneartor/comic that is rumoured for ME3, then I am fine because it assumes the gamer has romanced Ash since ME1.

If it's in ME3 itself, then I would prefer not.  I am afraid of faithful romancers getting screwed with only one or two extra lines of dialogue/allusions to ME1.  Sorry to BioWare, but I don't trust them to make romances that cater to everybody.

If the save generator is in, then there's three chances to romance Ash: ME1, ME2 (Genesis), and ME3.  That's plenty, in my opinion.

I also think, story-wise, it makes sense to not be able to romance Ash in ME3 without having romanced her previously, especially after Horizon.

I won't deny that I'm being selfish, that I want to have my cake and the whole buffet.  But I am hoping for a satisfactory ending to my Ash romance Sheps.

Not selfish at all. I think the ME1 romance options should be exclusive to ME1/ ME2: Genesis/ME3 comic that's rumored to span from ME1 to ME2. In ME3 if you didn't romance Ashley or Liara in one of those fashions then oh well. Boat has sailed.

I think another Ash question is that if Shep "cheated" on Ash in ME2 should there be a reconciliation in ME3 or should they go their separate ways?

Those people don't deserve to get back together with Ashley and IMO didn't deserve to be with her to begin with. :sick:

Of course... then there are people like PMC who... I think, no doubt, love Ash but wanted to go with a different route due to RP reasons... I can give a little leeway there. lol! ;)

Weeeell, since it was brought up again.... (lol)

The problem I have with newbs being able to romance Ash in ME3.... it means a couple of things...

1. Bioware will have to make two versions of the romance (3, if they do S/S as well) to make it unique for the new players just getting to know her and another for the ones who have romanced her previously. Making both versions shorter and having less depth as they only have a certain amount of time and resources they can spend on each character.

Or

2. They make only one version with a couple throw away lines for those of us who romanced her all the way through the triology and we get the standard build, build, build, hump time for the romance. So basically, a rehash of what we've done already. 

If they choose the first .... everyone gets the shaft with less quality Ash time and if they choose the second.... guess which group gets the shaft? <_<

I see your point Brody.

I also have  pure ME2 game where my Shep is single for Ash so I'm wondering if he'll get to romance her since he's got all the stupid default decisions andI hve no intention of downloading a comic that calls a 32 year old man a "good kid" and pushes Ashley to the wayyyy back-est part of the picture.Posted Image

I can understand the mstrust of bioware, even though I think they're not holding anything back since this is their epic conclusion to Shepard's story. I think there'll be a "you finally made your move" romance with the previous LI's and a "you finally walked into my life" romance with the new ones, and a "you came back to me" romance with the previous LI's. Why else would they bump the game back to get character relationships deeper for friendships and romances?Posted Image


EDIT: also not everyone can just whip up a romance out of this air. Yes there are people in this world who are romntically challenged, maybe the romantic tension flew right over Shep's galaxy saving head (there's a line in ME1 where Shepard goes "you're interested in me? I didn't notice" and Ash responds "yeah you've probbly been too busy saving the galaxy to notice") or as I stated earlier a by the book Shepard who would never go against the Regs, even if they were mutineers or not. Can't punish someone for following the rules. the glory of Mass Effect is that you get to make the game yours and you have options.you should still have options to find love before the galaxy ends if you didn't think it was the right time during ME1 or two, or hell maybe you wanted characters to grow more before settling down who knows? the possibilities are endless in ME.Posted Image

The problem with that is... that assumes bioware is going to make mulitple versions of each romancable character... and that each of these will be just as deep and thought out as the others.

If this is the case, I will gladly say bring it on! In fact, I would run a playthrough where I didn't romance anyone just to newly romance Ash in ME3 to see that perspective as well.

I just don't think bioware will do that... and when it comes to catering to certain groups of fans, I want them to cater to my group... not the newbies who haven't played ME1 or ME2 ... or the people who missed the boat, so to speak. In other words, I don't want to get a rehash of what we've done just b/c someone who didn't romance her in the first two games, decided that, all of a sudden, they want to.

Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't care if you can romance her only in ME3 IF... IF IF IF... they thoroughly hashed out both versions of the romance! If they don't... I'd rather have the people who romanced her in ME1 take precedence as... the newbs can always go back and play ME1 and ME2, whereas those of us who romanced her previously won't have the opportunity to change the romance to suit us if they make it a rehash. Get what I mean? lol

I get your point Reed, I really do, I just don't think there should be a "pfft, you dont' get an enjoyable experience since you JUST got here You can't have a romance" I would also think that the interactive backstory would be frowned upon since it adds "newbies" to the "faithful" carpool which is why I think ther should be a new romance and a faithful romance with the new Romance having a few lines of S/S dialogue. I'm also making romance sigs for this..."occasion" and I just finished the new romance ones.

I'd prefer it, if there was no option to start a new romance with her.
Of couse it would suck for new players and the s/s crowd, but when it comes to my vidya game characters I'm quite a selfish person.

like I said, if bioware will commit to doing multiple versions of her romance, then I'm happy with that. I'd love to leave the romance until the third game just to see what happens.... just for one playthrough though. :P

the problem comes when they don't... or won't.

It just seems to me that Ash is the leading lady of ME3. It's just a feeling I have. I really hope she is which means there is a good chance for lots of Ash interaction in the romance and friend department. Now if we could only find out who her writer is like stated a few pages back.

true, but this is going to be the biggest and baddest game of the series if the reaper war has to start and end in this game. Shepard's story IS ending so all romancs will be tied up or go of into the sunset. They've og tmonths to add new content and finalize stuff.Posted Image
