Can someone please tell me - without spoilers - when we meet Thane? Ive only done 3 hours so far, at I can´t stop thinking about when I might meet Thane again.


I can't remember how long it was, but you will get a message from him when you check your messages. Then you can go see him at the hospital. The same one were the VS is on the citadel.

Spoilers:

I too have paused on my ThaneMance Shep because I was too Argh'd to tolerate it. However, I've heard that Major Kirrahe can stop Thane's death if you get to him/have him saved. Anyone been able to test this out? Does Major Kirrahe stop Thane's 'usual' death only to have Thane die a short time later?

On a side-comment, browsing the boards its really looking like a lot of people are dissatisfied with the 'mances. And the endings... but thats a different topic.

So ....



I'm over my anger.  Mostly.

All I really feel is utter disappointment.  But then, the way the entire thing was 'handled' was exactly the way most people in this thread said it would play out.

Thanks Bioware?


... yeah.

EDIT : @Mikita : What have you read about Kirrahe stopping Thane's death?  In my playthrough Kirrahe was alive and on Sur'Kesh but other than that and him becomming a war asset he had no involvement during the Citadel coup or with Thane.

He was alive in my playthrough too and Thane still died. I don't think there's a way to change it... I can't even see what Kirrahe would do on the citadel at that time...I'd be more than happy to grasp straws but if you look at the other ME2 cameos... I wouldn't hold my breath.

Did they honestly think this would satisfy anyone? It's like we're being punished for getting invested in a character Bioware couldn't figure out. And it wouldn't have been difficult for them to just give him a lung transplant and have him stay on the citadel for the rest of the game... buuut nooo... just thinking about it creates a lump of anger in my throat. -.-

Whyy?! Whyyyyyy!!

Seems like Shep doesn´t care at all about Thane. This is ****ty annoying.

So no one can say aproximatly when we get the message? Is it like... 20 hours in game or something?

Sorry.
I'm sure someone knows how long.
I do remember seeing it at the same time the VS sends a message asking to see you at the hospital. It's not that long after the VS ends up in the hospital.

I'd say.. uhm.. 4-7 hours maybe? Depends on how fast you are in missions really.

Spoilers:

I've heard that Major Kirrahe can intercept the assassination of the Salarian Councilor instead of Thane, or something. (I haven't reached this part of the game, so I'm not exactly sure of the order of events.) And that he throws down with the baddie. However, this info may be from the leaked script, and not yet verified in the full game. If you go into the gameplay discussion, theres a thread thats 'mourning' Thane and people mentioned the Major "option" a few times. Either way, when I first met Thane in the hospital and saw how it carried out, I knew it wasn't going to end well and then read spoilers and had my suspicions confirmed.

@Friera, it was either Post-First Cerberus base but Pre-Palaven, or right after Palaven. Its actually fairly soon.

So if you have done 3 hours it shouldn't be that long. Just keep checking your messages, and read them all because the title of the message doesn't tell you who it's from.

@Hainkpe - Thanks for the instructions on color coding for spoilers. Got it to work.....and sorry all if you accidently read my previous spoilery post.

Your welcome, glad to help. It's nice seeing people being able to discuss spoilers without causing issues for anyone. Radhaldo was also very helpful so a big Thank You to him is in order. :) 

I do find it hilarous seeing quote boxes with looks like nothing in them but there really is something in there. Love it. LOL

Aye, he is using an alias, so make sure to read your messages thoroughly.

He'll be by the left window in the hospital lobby as you exit the elevator. Near the Doctor who needs Hanar Medi-Gel.

I got mine after Palaven. Five hours in the game. :)

Spoiler...

In the email Thand doesn't call you Siha. That worried me yet I gasped when I saw who it was from. I immediately left for the Citadel. I ran around, and missed him standing by the window. Then when I saw him, I stood there and watched and he shadow boxed the glass. I didn't was to talk to him yet I did. I think I stood watching him for a few minutes. The paragon interrupte made me so happy. He looked good despite everything. It was Thane. I just wish we could have taken him, Chakwas could have kept him comfortable. I hated leaving him. I felt so had afterward I cried.

I finished my first playthrough (and did everything). I have to say I feel extremely angry, disappointed and utterly robbed. Fail, Bioware. Fail.

I am also utterly gutted. My Thane playthrough has come to a halt, too.

I worked very hard to be hopeful, still am. Now that i am playing. It's bittersweet, which is what I would be okay with but the are aspects that are leaving me questioning. As I continue I will keep looking for things to be hopeful about. I am not sure about Thane though.

If this goes the way I think it will go, what my intuition is tell me. I think I will end up writing letters. I wish I could deny what I am feeling but I can't. Yet I will continue because I want to see it through,

I'm about halfway and I'm with Aislinn - EPIC fail Bioware. There are so many disconnects and things that don't make sense.
I'm posting Thane as his BAMF self, just because. This is how my Shep will remember him.

Not sure if this is spoilery but I'll color it anyway.


WHY is the life support still open on the ship? WHY is there still a cup on the table? So far none has decided to live in there and... at the moment it just serves as an angry reminder... They could have kept the damn thing locked.

For anyone who hasn't seen him yet, it should be an email you get after the mission on Palaven's moon (I'm pretty sure). About 4 hours in for me.

Spoiler...

My first impressions of meeting with Thane again was his wanting to stay in the hospital. It conflicted with what he wrote in his LotSB letter. That's why leaving him at the hospital was so hard. I remember thinking, wheres the Thane from Illium? The Thane who wanted to die making the galaxy a better place? The Thane who didn't want to die connected to machines breathing away the last of his life. How could he leave Shepard to face this alone while he still lived. As my husband said, it felt like the writer didn't want to do the hard thing to either cure him and let him live or kill him outright. So they left him to linger only to have happenstance occur. I am not sure if that was the case, I am not going to make the same assumption but I wanted Thane to have a death he could accept if that was what he wanted, not just linger. Okay, I am going to start crying again if I continue.

I am so angry...and dissapointed... right now, and prob forever.

Suddenly I have no will to play it anymore.
I might actually stop this playthrough and import another character with different romance, and continue my ShepThhanemance  when I get all answers regarding Thane´s possible optional endings.

You think that room may be for another DLC character down the road?

Feels like Thane's writer disappearing between the games had an effect after all.

Or did I imagine that happening? Is there anything on his VA's facebook or twitter, for those who have them?

Well, it would explain some (maybe a tiny bit) of Keythe's reluctance to speak to any of his fans. It would have been nice to at least respond to requests about reading Thane's letter. I've heard both Kaidan and Ashley letters and they were well done. This might (not really) have helped a little bit. But obviously he was too busy pimping the rest of his work to even talk to people. Yes, I am bitter towards him. He could have at least responded.

I haven't even played yet (just installed) and I'm already pissed off.

The writer did leave - apparently a few did as they didn't like where the lead writer was taking the series. Also, there is a spoiler below that may explain the VA not reading the letter

SPOILER

Once Thane has died, you receive an email called "never lose hope". It is the EXACT same letter as from in LoTSB - so I'm betting that's why the VA couldn't read it - it was being used again and for they didn't want to spoil ME3 for anyone. Maybe now we can get him to read it!
