Ugh... Rachni mission. But Ash is there, so all is well. :D

Wait, how is that possible? I thought this mission will disappear after " Priority: Tuchanka " and Ash can join to us only after the coup :blink:

Now to business...

you actually liked Ash's treatment in ME3?! I thought she was terribly gimped on content. I suppose this comes from the fact that somehow I got stuck with the friendship path rather than the romance path. But from what I hear, the only difference is the roll in the hay at the end. 

Now to me, Ashley didn't talk nearly enough throughout the game. Once she comes back from the Citadel Coup... what does she do? NOTHING. She lays around drunk on the floor and moves 5 feet either way and never leaves her room. She never has anything to say after missions unless she's babbling about Cerberus more. Like after Thessia... I thought for sure she would have something comforting to say to Shepard... nothing.

Everyone gets these moments on the normandy where they are moving around interacting with other crew members, talking to you about what has happened and you can actually interact with them... making it feel more real. Ashley doesn't do any of that. I was highly disappointed with her in ME3... more so than about the endings. 

I could even get over not having her for half the game b/c of the injury and coup... if she would have had something to say about things, if she would have done SOMETHING! ugh.


Hi Reed!  :)

Now, to business.  Damn it... aside from the fact that I agree with you in function, yes I like the way the romance worked.  Why?  Because my number one fear going into ME3 is that they would do this:

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh Shepard!  I was SO WRONG to doubt you on Horizon!  Would you forgive me if I got on my knees and begged?  How about if I just got on my knees, nudgenudgewinkwink.  I can dance for you like Kelly!  And feed more than your fish, nudgenudgewinkwink.  And did you notice my boobs?  They're bigger.  Mass-affected, Shepard.  *awkward camera angle* Posted Image

So yeah.  I was elated that didn't happen, because, after seeing the new outfit and character model, I was not expecting much.  I was expecting Kelly-Meets-Miranda-With-Lots-of-Apologies, and I was actually cringing when I first saw her on screen.

I felt her path stayed true to character, and the romance bits were touching and well done, imo, and that was what most mattered to me.  Sorry you got friendzoned, though.  Bad, Renegade!

^ that mission doesn't happen on Tuchanka and it's not time-limited afaik.

Only Grissom Academy and Turian Bomb on Tuchanka have a limit.
And you can do the bomb mission with Ashley, if you want!

- Turian Primarch's son -> get the bomb mission
- Heal Genophage
- Udina coup
- Do the bomb mission

Don't do any missions between or the bomb will explode, killing Eve.

Okay here is an alternate ending (rough draft) of ME3 by Neeh ... who gave us that great Ashley holding Shepard. 

Keep in mind that it is femShep and Liara but I thought maybe it might inspire a Ashley and Shepard ending.

OMG. I need to play tomorrow again. Thanks for the tip, Data! ^_^ And what about mision on Eden Prime? ( DLC ) I mean, I know there is now time limit, but if you do this mission so late ( after the coup ) then Javik will have less dialogues, right? Will I miss anything important/interesting?

I'd like to see one for m!Shep + Ash - but that one gave me chills already. :o

Well done. Really, really well done. That's how it should have ended. With the LI and Shep alive ... :blush:

Dunno. I got Javik after dealing with Udina ... so Ash was with me.
His stuff was pretty much complete.



Wha'ever - gn8 everyone ;)

I too was a bit worried about her being all "I'm osrry for Horizon please forgive shepard pleaaaaaasssseeeeeeeeee!!!!! for all the people who's e-penis got hurt by someone actually refusing their Gary stu on Horizon.

To me her romance feels disjointed. it drops off when she gets on the ship until she gets drunk then it drops off agian and then after saying nothing to you after the date it's a stream of "I love you" and it's like "where'd this come from Ash?"

You'll just miss the comments he makes after each mission, but you won't miss any 'real' conversations. I always save the Javik mission until I get Ashley, because she has extra dialogue in it about the 212.

Yeah, the romance is disjointed. Maybe I can be hopeful and say a glitch cut off the rest of her romance, rather than it just being straight cut. I'm pretty sure their was a dialogue where she asked Shepard what it was like being dead. You know, sort of shed more light on the fact that Shepard is doubting his identity.

Alright, good to know. Thanks. This time I'll keep this mission until I get Ash back.

Right? Shepard being held by his/her love interest would have made me cheer. And it would also have made me replay that very second ... putting me on my probable fourth replay today.

Ash holding Shepard as it fades to black. Sweet. I'm concerned that Bioware's "clarity & closure" won't be a step up really if they missed why we didn't like the ending to begin with. But I am trying to keep hope alove.

I have just enough faith left to believe that Bioware will still deliver on everything they said the ending would be.

So yeah.  I was elated that didn't happen, because, after seeing the new outfit and character model, I was not expecting much.  I was expecting Kelly-Meets-Miranda-With-Lots-of-Apologies, and I was actually cringing when I first saw her on screen.

I felt her path stayed true to character, and the romance bits were touching and well done, imo, and that was what most mattered to me.  Sorry you got friendzoned, though.  Bad, Renegade! 


Oh, don't get me wrong... I too am happy that they didn't pull that apology out the ass card as that would have been completely out of character for her and would have turned me off of her completely. (Anyone else notice that they still pulled the awkward camera angles with Miranda?! lol ... that's STILL annoying!)

But, do you remember in ME1... how you'd run straight to the elevator and wait anxiously for like 20 minutes for it to descend so that you could talk to Ashley and get her thoughts on what had just transpired? Then you could give your input or agree or flirt or w/e with her? I certainly do, as that one of my favorite parts of the game! Now where was this in ME3? It was non-existant.

It was there with Garrus, with Liara, and Vega and Tali to a lesser extent. But there was NONE of this with Ashley! I mean, that's the reason I fell in love with the character in the first place... from hearing her viewpoints on things and thinking... damn, I like the way she thinks! lol

Just felt like Bioware was playing favorites as usual. =/

In most other threads people are talking about something they don't like or hate, the ending, sometimes it's hard to be civil when you talk about things you don't like or hate.  We're all here because we like and want more of the same thing so it's easy to be civil.
