@Alittlekitty I don't think you should assume that those who chose to have there Shepard romance Thane like drama, I certainly don't. I like Thane despite the terminally ill aspect of his story which I find to incredibly cheap within the Mass Effect universe and all its scientific achievements. I can only hope that there is opportunity to treat or cure him in ME3.

I hate the illness aspect of his story as well. I had Shepard romance him  in spite of it, definitely not because of it.
Thane would still be compelling without it. Probably more so, because I get the impression that some players were scared off by the fact that he's ill.

Still it boggles my mind that the idea of a cure or treatment seems so ludicrous to some people. Thane and Shepard inhabit a world much more advanced than our own and a cure IS being worked on. Why would BioWare mention that he's viable for a lung transplant in his medical report - if it's not going to mean anything in the end? If he can't be helped? I don't think it's unreasonable to want options in a game about choice.

Also, concerning the messages debate, I just think back to ME2 and how basically everyone Shep met sent her an email. From the Salarian you rescue in Thane's recruitment mission to the random crazypants convict who escapes during Jack's recruitment mission. These random people somehow got a hold of Shepard's email and sent her messages.

Considering that, I don't think it'd be dificult for Thane to send her a message unless the Alliance is preventing her from receiving any. Contrived reason #4356365 to seperate Shepard from the ME2 squad.

I like this human, she understands!

With all the hints about Thane being liable for an operation and the daily news things about the cure itself... it'd just seem strange they even bothered writing those things if there won't be any chance at all to make use of it. If they hadn't made any hints like that whatsoever I think a lot more people would be acceptable of Thane's death but now it just seems like a cruel joke if no option's shown.

My ideal would be a transplant to get rid of the bulk of the infection and then the new treatment to prevent it getting a foothold again.  I think it makes sense

@Nerana,

Especially considering his condition. When recruited Thane said he wouldn't show symptoms for another 8-12 months, and the events of ME2 take place over 9 months and seeing as ME3 takes place six months after Arrival...

Well, either his estimates were off, or he received some kind of treatment/transplant to extend his life or... he's in really serious condition, barely hanging on...

This is the only thing that kills any optimism I might have. Unless he got the transplant while Shepard was locked up would the transplant even be viable any longer if he's at a stage in which he's 'barely hanging on'? D:

[Thrazesul]

To turn it around: Imagine Shepard going to wherever Thane is, expecting to see him half dead and there he stands with a basically healed body!

I'm not even sure where I dug that out, I'm usually very negative. xD

Hn.

Feron for spare parts/Transplant -> Medigel for the lungs-> fixed until Hanar's cure is ready.

Well I can hope, can't I?

@ nerana,

I think my heart would burst if Shepard shows up and Thane is fine, after all this worry. But that would certainly be a welcome thing.

^ But still quite nice if it occured.

[Juliaxo]

If only, Nerana.

Maybe Kolyat talked some sense into his dad and got him to get some treatment while Shepard was locked up? We won't know until the game is out and the wait is killing me. I hate not knowing.

What are the chances we'll see a glimpse of him when the launch trailer debuts tonight? I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Went back to check and it''s the 'Taking Back the Earth" trailer that's debuting tonight during 'The Walking Dead'. My mistake!

They already released a teaser of a little girl in a sunflower field with a Reaper creepin' up behind her.

Sorry! :/ It's my own hopes getting the best of me. We're all desperate for the possibility of seeing Thane. *sigh*

[JECWSU]

I just saw the new trailer. It looked great.
No Thane. Not a big surprise. All I saw was Shepard and Ashley.
I'm loosing what little hope I had.

The end of the youtube version said that there will be an extended version of the trailer released on Tuesday.  Small chance, but we may be in for a big surprise!

[Lucky Thirteen]

I don't think we'll see Thane until we meet him in the game. I don't mind not seeing him in all these trailers, he was in everything for ME2. They've got too many characters running around to reuse Thane in the ads again.

[Thrazesul]

Playing as a drell is the most awesome thing I've done in a long time. I don't care I gave him the wrong talents, I am going to keep using him. xD I'm finally getting hang of the back flipping and rolling around to be useful now.

I liked the trailer, wasn't expecting to see Thane in it considering he had a lot of screentime in the last CG trailer. I still can't get over how little Ashley actually looks like Ashley...

[mythlover20]

I was hoping to see Thane in the trailer, even if it was just a shot with him off to the side as a minor member of the squad (honestly I didn't hope for anything more). And yeah, I was shocked by how little like Ashley Ashley looked. I thought it was the new reporter chick for a while.

OR its like Garrus in ME2, and the are saving us from a "SURPRISE THANE´S IS ACTUALLY *insert awesome nick-name* ,AND IS IN YOUR SQUAD".

[Thrazesul]

It looks and sounds exactly like Thane. It's possible to change the skin color eventuelly but it requires very much luck to open up.

But I swear the human female sounds like Shepard too...

I've yet to see another Drell when I've played, I've always been lonely! Seen every other race now though.

I am playing Quinn right now through ME2 she is NOT romancing Thane (she is staying loyal to Kaidan) and I really have to stop having her go into life support just so I can get my own Thane time in. lol

[mythlover20]

okay, stupid question, totally off topic, but: what buttom do i press to take screenshots in the demo. prt scrn and F11 don't work.

[Juliaxo]

I hope Thane will appear in at least one trailer before the game is released. Even if it's just a quick shot.

Here is some drell gameplay. They are awesome. Biotic punch, ninja jump, kicking. This is Thane from blur trailers.

I'm so jealous! I've been trying to unlock the Drell Vanguard or Drell Adept for most of the weekend. I feel like the game is trolling me because I ended up unlocking Asari Adept instead. The Asari is pretty powerful and fun to play (stasis bubble ftw!) but I still want my Drell. :/

There was one in the group I played with and he looks exactly like Thane. They changed nothing, it seems. Guy was badass and took down everything in his path. At one point, everyone else in the group was down and he soloed the rest of the wave on his own like a champ. It was so awesome. Thane would be proud.

My Asari was smitten.

I also saw a Krogan soldier at one point and I thought he looked exactly like Wrex.

You're so luky. Thane's twin seems fun to play

I was also very surpised at how much that didn't look like Ashley. I don't know whay they did that.
