That, "I used to." was the most loaded phrase in the entire beta.


Yeah, that annoyed me to no ends! I was excited to see Ash because I think she's awesome and now she's all "I used to!" All I could think is "DIS B***H!" Ha, ha! Still love her though...


See that's the thing. It can be interpreted so many different ways! I thought her tone was wistful. I hope it was anyway. Couldn't get a helpful hint from her face.

And Shepard's brush off?! DAYUM!

I really hope the reaction on Shepard's part if he romanced Ashley is a bit better then this. The fact is I have a Shepard who only minutes after Horizon described Ashley as an 'incredible woman' to Kelly and maintained to Joker that he still believed her to be a 'friend'.
Similarly right before the suicide mission in his last moments of peace he gazed longingly at her picture right before leaving.

With all of this in mind it would be glaringly inconsistant for Shepard to just brush past her and give her the cold shoulder for the first time seeing her in almost a year. Maybe it could be a little awkward and tense but I'm kind of hopeful for some kind of actual emotional response from Shepard after seeing her.


I'm guessing what was shown was a pure, no import Shepard (Ash alive, Anderson an Admiral, etc) with no romance.

Still, I'm thinking she will have to be "re-romanced" regardless.

I hope so, but a part of me really wants to see them just getting along. I went out of my way to save Ash and survive without being ninjamanced a third time in ME...I think my manShep at least deserves a hug from her! D:

yeah what was shown was pure no import that's why they asked all the previous chracters where they met Shepard before. Default shep is always a bachelor(ette).

Oh yeah, I want a hug too. Demo Shepard blew past her faster than the Renegade Alliance Fleet blew past the Destiny Ascension during the Battle of the Citadel. That was rough.

Okay, you know what? That outfit looks really nice in-game.

Still want armor, though.

Also, that demo did not have enough Ash dialogue.


I agree on both counts, I too hope for more dialogue from Ash and for her to wear armor in future. I also agree that the outfit looks nice, I'd prefer her to wear something more practical and more in line with the casual clothing of Mass Effect 1 but I can admit that the outfit does look nice on an aesthetic level even if it is kind of an impractical choice.

That said I will be able to cope with Ashley having a sexy outfit as long as Bioware don't do to her what they did to Miranda, I.E constant exploitative camera angles that seem to break the forth wall by being irrelevant to the plot and seemingly existing for no reason other then to say:
"Hey, check this out!"
That would be too much for me. I can handle sexy, not so much exploitation.

I just hope that isn't the "non-romance" option, you know? I'll be really mad if you hug her if your Shep romanced her because I never did and never want to romance Ash. I see her as one of my manShep's best friends, along with Liara. My manShep gets to hug Liara an awful lot...it kind of sucks he's never gotten to hug Ash at least once.

I kinda liked that line too. "I used to know him." It's been three years! It makes sense. Ash even said in her email "I'm not who I was then. And neither are you." Guess they've got a lot of working out and catching up to do.

But really is a look and a smile so hard, Shepard? That's all I'm asking for! Acknowledgement!

It's the beta. Chill out. Posted Image Bioware WILL fix this. Posted Image

Romanced or non-romanced, that diss was a bit cruel. The hug should be universal. I'd at least like a, "We should talk later."  It was cold-blooded.

I guess it's...tolerable.  But I still wish she looked more Alliance and less Grey Warden.

I agree, I'm mostly just trying to keep a positive face on about this whole situation though. After all given what the usual average is for female game characters, it could have been a lot worse.

She still looks like a major ass-kicker.

But I agree with what you said earlier.  Sexy = good, exploitation = bad.

Did I mention how excited I am about being able to pal around with my number one brosephine again?

I pose a question mainly because I'm relatively unfamiliar with Military regs regarding fraternization, if the beta pans out and Ash is now canoically a Lieutenant Commander, since John is the same rank as her and the only thing really barring their relationship from blossoming is the fallout of Horizon(Reapers don't count). Can they have a relationship without getting into trouble now? especially now since they both have the Spectre card to play?

I'm no military guy, but as far as I know - there are two things that are important.

1.) They both have to be either enlisted personal or officers. (I don't think rank matters)

2.) One cannot be serving directly under the other.


Like I said - I don't know for certain, but I believe that's what matters most.


Edited for clarity.

Well - I just asked my folks(both are former Navy), if they're the same rank or same class (either non-commish or commish) then they are allowed to persue a relationship with permission from their CO. Since Shepard IS the CO, it's not allowed. But with the Do-What-Ever-I-Want-And-Get-Away-With-It badge of the Spectres, its really up to them whether they want to be together or not.
