I'm just hoping that, like some had speculated, it will be difficult to get his happy ending but it will be a satisfying one and the other outcomes (bad ones) are easier to get. In this way, it feels rewarding and keeps the sense of urgency to 'fight for the lost'.

And if Thane does die, here's to hoping you can do something for Kolyat, especially since Bailey won't be around to help him.

So far as the alleged Invictus mission goes, I don't see something wrong with it in concept. I've been hoping that the hanar would have something to do with the war- if the key lies in prothean stuff, well they're the ones all about preserving prothean ruins, and Thane could serve as a connection to them...


Way back before we knew much of anything I thought about this, too. Thane being Shepard's liason to the Hanar, who had knowledge of some helpful prothean artifact which could be used to stop the Reapers. It would have made sense.


^ This.

It does make so much sense. Thane's relationship with the Illuminated Primacy was somewhat established, even if we didn't actually see anything.

I won't say much more because I stole a lot of this for Invictus, and I want to leave some mystery for the next chapter.

Yes I'm trolling for readers. I'm ashamed to admit I'm feeling a little insecure about it all at the moment, since I've discovered I have to rewrite a fair bit of what I had ready to upload. :(

Also, some Thane smexiness for us all. :wub:

It's less than three weeks away, so let's try to stay positive - it appears that most people are in the same "no news" boat.


My guess on why we haven't been shown anything at all, as opposed to everyone else, is that Thane's appearance itself is spoilerific. Either that or BW sees us as the most patient group of people out there and they know we can handle the wait. (although it seems like there were talks of fire and pitchforks a few posts back....) Perhaps it will be better to just see him in-game.

I can tell you one thing, I didn't realize how much I missed these characters. Playing the demo, my face hurt from grinning like an idiot after seeing them again. Even characters that I'd never really gotten attached to, like Wrex and Liara - so great to see them. If there had been a hug button, I would have mashed it to bits. Thane better watch out.

I was thinking the other day, Thane was one of the first they showed last time. This time he's one of the very last. I wonder if they planned that all along. I have a feeling he won't be shown at all and our first sight of him will be in game. He's definitely the character they can be abuse for marketing purposes, because there is a major cliff hanger question surrounding him.

Giving that no one will come in here posting screenshots of him from an illegal copy of the game of course, I think we are in store for a big, pleasant surprise.

This is the single most heartwarming comment I have read around here in the past week. Well done, Shepenwepet.

^^^^^^^
I think the same, I am really hoping that he is like a secret companion or something, but that might be too kind of Bioware :unsure:

@Fiery Phoenix - Thanks! I'm sure there are a lot of people who feel the same way I do, they're just being drowned out by "OMG the demo sucks, pre-order cancelled."

Let's face it, it's the characters and story that keep us coming back, not the fact that we can holster our gun. People are making big deals out of nothing, in my opinion.

And now this, because I haven't taken any more pictures lately.

There's an ME3 spoiler for you. We haven't seen Thane in any trailers because he's busy teaching baby Kermit how to play tennis.

so true about the grinning!!
I actually started smiling like an idiot just by seeing Shepard at the very beginning even though it wasn't an import! then Anderson, from ear to ear upon meeting Kaidan, but when the Normandy appears and Joker says "Cavalry has arrived"

*squeee*

Too bad we don't get to see Joker in the demo. Can't wait for the full game!!

I don't remember hearing anyone saying the demo sucked. They are wrong if they think that because I loved it. What's making people upset is how the ME2 squad is being pushed to the side.
As much as I loved the demo and enjoyed seeing Anderson, Kaidan, and Wrex I'm still going to miss Thane. My favorite character and LI isn't going to be there.

Unfortunately, Ava, I'm 99% certain we won't see Thane until in-game. I'm not even counting on the possibility of him appearing in the launch trailer.

You're probably right. It would have been nice though.

My goodness. I might have to go on media blackout sooner than I thought if everyone is being so negative. I can say that I have had my despondent days but I always try to think BW will not disappoint me before I fall asleep. Just try to keep in mind that they haven't really disappointed us yet... (plus all you will prolly be done with the game before I receive it :) I have to wait two days because I preordered it from GameStop and it will take two days for
It to ship from what I am reading on the site)
So stay positive thane fans!!! *chest beat*

Two days.
Well I will be coming here to see what they say happens to Thane. I don't know if I can wait to find out myself. My first playthrough will be my Garrus romance so hopefully we will know something by then.

I know I am grappling with a decision to be on blackout for those two days or to visit here to see if I have a right to be negative :) two days is going to be a struggle but that separates fans from just players ;)

I'm thinking about staying away, but then I know I won't be able to. I don't want to know all the details I would just like to get a little bit of what will happen to him. I'm a bit nervous about it though. Luckily we don't have to wait much longer.

Yeah, I am really glad that we only have a few weeks left. Plus I know most of us have more PTs to finish. I know I do. So maybe that and fanfic will get us through.
And I agree that I will prolly try to stay away but will crumble under the want to know :) no one's perfect. But I like that I have this community that is as excited as me to help with moral support, pictures, and fanfic :)

EDIT: JECWSU, there would be a hole left in the community here if you left :) you have been here too long to leave so I think I speak for everyone when I say, "don't go" :D

 I'm not going anywhere anytime soon.

I still have my last playthrough.  It's hard staying out of life support. This is probably my last one before ME3. Fanfic and fan art will definitely help.

I Have just finished another playthrough, but this time I stayed faithful to Kaidan. I felt like crying for my Femshep when Thane didn't call her Siha (Stupid Kaidan, and his hotness) lol

I think I am going to have to stop thinking about Mass Effect for a little while because I am going insane with the wait :-| and the lack of information on Thane isn't helping.

(I say I'll stop thinking about Mass effect, But I have NO control) :D

Made a new FemShep a few days ago, can't wait to meet Thane and let him call me Siha.
Just out of curiousity, how many of you Thane romancers are male? Seems to me like most of you are female, but forgive me if I'm wrong.

Off topic: but a friend of mine asked me which DLC he should get but he can only get one. So arrival or LoTSB?

Most of us are female, but I know Fiery is male. I'm not sure about anyone else.

I think he should get LotSB. I enjoyed it more than the others.

You're welcome, JECWSU.
I keep saying the next one is my last playthrough but then I get bored or something and start another one.
I am "on my last playthrough" which is my first renegade. But I am finding it hard because I just can't ever see my Shepard being so cruel to people. Right now I am just being renegade with bad guys because I can't be mean to my squad, EDI, or anyone else who is on the ship or from the previous game Posted Image

EDIT: Oh, and thank you for the advice
