Just a quick post to say I've put up a mission list for the Thane photo album in both the Thane Projects and #SaveThane groups. Some missions have already been assigned, but please go have a look and see which one you'd like to take, if you want to take part. Thanks

Could you add a link for us n00bs ? I'm still finding myself around bw forums

See I like those beginnings Coldi because each of my Shepard's would go a different route. I can see them all now. Faith would definitely turn herself in, she's just that type. Hope would wait for Capture. Of course she would lay false trails and troll the Alliance the whole time. Both Cameron and Malificent would go rogue. There is no other choice for them, Cameron could be talked into turning herself in by Thane and him alone. He's the only person she listens too. Malificent would not listen, she would tell him she loves him but there's no way she's going to bend over for people who turned their back on her. That's how she sees it at least. She'd also crawl into bed with Cerberus if it meant getting her own way. She really is a doomed soul. I suppose I could redeem her but that would require Thane living and giving her a tongue lashing like she's never seen in her life. Would he ever be pleased with what she does? Probably not but she'd have no issue on telling him to get off his high horse. He sought revenge and let darkness cloud his heart and mind at one point. He eventually found his path and I think he would believe she could find hers. Of course this is just Malificent, she does not in anyway reflect the thoughts and actions of any of the other Shepards I have.

The ship has never sailed Coldi, as long as you do what I do when I imagine scenarios...act like ME3 never happened to me. It was someone else's tale and how they wanted it. Makes it easier to come up with stuff that way. I may use some of what they have in there but because I am telling my own story, I can add my own stuff.

I'm putting it here too. Thanks to my awesome friend Xenofire who can decipher my sleep deprived brain images.

LOL...my girls just got into a huge fight over characters. The older one loves Smallville and was saying how bad@ass Clark is and my younger one (bless her) told her that it doesn't matter because Thane would smear Clark all over the wall. The older one had Courtney on why Clark would win until Courtney yelled, "I don't think so, Mommy said Mass Effect has space magic and space magic can wipe out everything and it doesn't have to make sense so Thane has space magic so he would win." They almost came to blows until I stopped it. Poor Hayley she doesn't like anyone bashing on Clark. I told them to go to bed and I heard Courtney whisper, "space magic plus sniper will knock Clark right out of his tight woman underpants." Meh, I told them to continue this tomorrow.

@utaker1988
Space Magic and tight woman underpants. That made me laugh.

WHOA looky here we got ourselves a wonderful idea session going on thanks to Coldi and Utaker.

I want to add my 2 cents worth but first I want to point out somethings I can't help myself here not at all. It has to do with excuses, and justification of BW/EA's choices/actions

1.There wasn't enough budget for story let alone to give unpopular characters in ME3 a bigger role. These characters often times include 1)Jacob Taylor 2)Samara (I see her put here far less than Thane), 3)Thane 4)Kelly 5)Zaeed 6)Kasumi.

2.BW/EA didn't have enough time to fit characters in.BS Time is not a factor unless you are a dimwitted fool.

3.It was because the ME2 characters can die that's why they don't get a role in ME3.

4.Your just butthurt.

Now to go about destroying these claims brought forth by people who are clearly dumb as all hell or blind.

1.Budget: This is not a factor WHY? Here are few reasons,
1.A TWO separate live action trailers for FemShep and DudeShep. At least 3 other trailers that had live action cr@p in them, such as the news room dick heads.

1.B Twitter death of Emily Wong.

1.C An Optional MultiPlayer Component, in a game that had been a strictly single player.

1.D All those pre-writen reviews. Trust me the cr@p in many of those reviews was the same like they had all been given a generic review to use, only allowed to alter it a bit, to make it sound perfect and unique, just don't stray too far from the pre-writen review. That's right I got balls enough to call them out on this, it's d@mn sure what I was seeing and reading.

1.E The freaking advertising for this game was sick, I saw more TV advertisements for ME3 than I had for Halo 3, Gears of War 2&3, Resident Evil 5, Grand Theft Auto (what ever number), ME2, And the last 3 Call of Duty games. That's right I saw ME3 TV ads so goddamn much I was wanting to vomit, and they were also the live action ones too. I remember watching ESPN back at the end of April start of May and they were still playing ME3 ads.

Next BS about the budget issue, the unpopular characters, oh yes but there was enough budget to do Snooki Chobot, Vega, Javik, Steve Cortez, Samantha Tranynor, dipstick Adams,

2, BS time is a sh!tty excuse as Carlin would say "Oh yes the time excuss the last possible refuge of a man with no argument to stand on" BS time is dumb, if they were working and had to met a deadline then they shouldn't have wasted time and money with the above cr@p.

3.Oh god here we go again because the ME2 characters can die, yeah no sh!t dumbf*ck, what the hell does it mean really? Wrex can die in ME1, Kaidan or Ash die in ME1. Garrus and Tali can die in ME2. In fact the characters of the ME2 cast that I had die the most on me were in this order Jack or Miranda, because I didn't have a high enough par/ren score so I had to pick a side. Mordin he died very easily. Ohh look at that those characters got more content in ME3 then any other ME2 exclusive cast members. Don't even get me started on Garrus and Tali.

4.Your just butthurt: a last ditch attempt by a defeated fan attempting to insult a fan who is right about all this cr@p.


Oh budget Action Mode too haha.

Next on to the ideas I got about a story line or something that could have been done differently or why this game is ruined...................

Oh f*ck me I forgot those reasons now, I'll be back when I can remember them.

@Utaker - *Giggles* Your kids are adorable!

@Mnohama - I thin that's EXACTLY how it happened. Cetainly adults couldn't have come up with such trash, right? RIGHT?!

*Sigh* I missed all the fun while out getting firewood yesterday, damn. And now my arms hurt like b*tches.

Edit. Oh, wait, Gears is on a tear, fun is back  *grabs popcorn*

I love reason 4: You are just butthurt.

Yeah, so says the one with a Retake Banner or "Blah, Blah" Deserves a Better Ending. I have been called butthurt and to that I say, "Well aren't we observant, Sherlock." I wouldn't be complaining or trying to change something if I wasn't upset about it to begin with. I like how some like to throw that as an insult. Hmmm, sorry when you have been through what I have, you are going to have to do a little better than that and it's not really an insult when you know you are. As a matter of fact, throw every nasty name you can at me primitive, I'll probably tell say, "yeah, I am, so what..next."

Another thing I really love, "I am glad they didn't cave to the fan service." Yes they did, Tali and Garrus as LI's in ME2 is a good example of fan service. Did CH not state once that both of them were considered as LI's in ME but was scrapped because they thought no one would go for them. But come ME2, they were added because people asked for it. Fan service. Up until Mass Effect 3, a lot of what BW did was fan service, they listened to the fans and added what they could to please them. I say if you are going to service the fans be a little more fair about it. I don't give a rats flaming behind if Jacob wasn't popular, YOU put him in as LI, you had him tell FemShep he loved her, it is now your responsibility to make sure he gets the equal treatment as an LI as the popular ones did. I didn't ask for you to make Thane, I didn't demand he be an LI, I didn't throw around hints at treatments, cures, etc, I didn't promote a cure for him. That was all you BW, now give him the equal treatment. I wasn't the one who waved Samara under people's noses, I'm not the one who stated that there would be something in the romance department for her in ME3, again all you BW, now fix it. Fan service, I think not, in each of these cases we are asking for what was handed to us, told to us, and what we were led to believe through the actions of their creators.  

But on a positive note, I am noticing more people stating they loved Thane's death but his romance was crap or heard it was crap and should have been dealt with appropriately. For that, I thank them for at least acknowledging that there was something wrong.

Utaker, butthurt I thought you'd be immune to being butthurt by now, or is that something you don't do all that often? *does the Wrex laugh*

Well this isn't related to these forums someone sent me a PM (on another site) b!tching me out for saying my normal real, raw, brutally honest views, about BW/EA and ME3. This person was an anonymous person, no user name, they sent me a PM b!tching me out. What was odd was It went on for nearly a dozen sentences before the person stated what it was I said that had p!ssed them off so bad.

But once they got around to saying it, they seemed to forgot what it was and continued to b!tch at me. I laughed when I got to the end because it ended with them saying "News flash you little brat, if you think you can walk around being an @sshole, and talking badly about people you don't even know, and sh!t all over the hard work of people, because you didn't get what you wanted, then your in for a rude awakening in this world you whiny little brat."

When I got to the rude awakening I was rolling on the ground laughing I couldn't contain myself anymore.

Ha! I am immune to being butthurt.

I hate to say this but yes, one can walk around being an @sshole all they want, it's allowed. I'm not saying you'll win popularity contests but I found those rather pretentious anyway. That message, it screams of hypocrisy, OMG, I love it. Calling you an @sshole and whiny little brat, signing it Anon all the while chastising you for talking bad about people you don't know. Those are the kind of people that kept Carlin in business.

What people fail to realize is that each of us knows there is a greater chance of us not getting what we want as opposed to us getting it. They also fail to realize that having an opinion and expressing it is perfectly okay too. But they only see what they want to see.

Now, pardon me I got a rather nasty email about my actions in a game. I am going off into Skype to copy and paste it so that 50 other people can laugh at this person. I know I am a bad person but at least I admit to what I do, I don't go around knocking others in public about it all the while doing it too.

I don't give a rats flaming behind if Jacob wasn't popular, YOU put him in as LI, you had him tell FemShep he loved her, it is now your responsibility to make sure he gets the equal treatment as an LI as the popular ones did.

This! So much this. And like someone said here or in the protesting thread, people some how made the wrong romance choice by choosing Jacob or Thane. But since when were there wrong choices in the series? Are we supposed to be clairvoyant now? Are we supposed to have a crystal ball when we make our LI choices? No,all we have to be is be maleShep, because all of his LI choices were right.

I've also realized it seemed like BW made sure to burn the romances of Jacob and Thane into the ground. Thane dies and Jacob cheats. No way (currently) to recover from that. Why was BW so determined to make sure these two never survived? Because all they had to do was something similar to Jack. But instead femShep players are tortured for not going for the "right" choices.

yeah, i agree with tash^^ being the leader is never simple and you gonna make responsible for everything, but someone has to do it my dear. so come to me if it's become to hard. somehow, it's my fault too, because i made ya doing the poster ^^' this was the starting point.
but you're right. it's a pit, a shame, that we have to fight for something, that was naturally should be given too us. @.@ stupid ressource keeping...they took longer time to make it than they've planned. mass effect was alright...really, it was not a bad game, never, but it had so much more potential and if the endind had been alright...let us feel like it's really a good end for years of mass effect, we would not notice so much details which are not fitting best...
(well thane except) but if we would be alright with the ends, we would complain less, i'm sure...but all the things really destroyed the replay fun...
i always wanted to start a whole pt on pc from 1-3 after ending me3 first time...but i can't. for what? that shepard dies? that she cannot save her friends? that her love is thrown away? >.< nooo...thanks

Oh I am not complaining about being the "leader". BW can kiss my a**.  If  I could, I would send them a stature in Thane's honor.

In my career, in rl, I am the running the show. I know of the ups and downs. I can handle it since I am experienced in it.

I was just ranting because I feel I don't need to be an uptight leader than I am in real life. In my career I have to come down hard and be hard because it's pays my and other's people bills. Here I am protesting against a game. If BW doesn't make the fix, it just shows how much of a failure they are.

It's not your fault, I made the decision in the end to run the poster. The responsiblity rests on my shoulders.

Honestly I wish I could rant about the endings.... but I really care less about it. Especially when they killed what was one of the most things to me in mid half of the game. 

i know... thane is more important for me than the ending.. even if i don't like him...they're unlogical o.O but could handle it, that i know, that the charas i love would be safe. but they're not. 3 of them died, the fourth is somewhere in a jungle...really, was i'm the only thinking about the end of brothers lionheart? *sigh* *click ones tongue* ay ay ay bioware, casey what have you done?

[gearseffect]

@Utaker, oh believe me I so many Carlin rants came to minds, but what came to my mind first, after I picked myself off the floor from laughing, was sending the Anon a reply (if they'd even get it), and ranting back at them. Oh I had it all typed up and ready, I just didn't send it. Delete.

@Dine, I'm fairly certain the only reason BW didn't have Garrus cheating on FemShep, was they had too many pr!cks in the office, a few Tali dolls under theirs desks too. So beings they only cared about the ball and wood baring individuals, Tali didn't shack up with Garrus. See what I did there? It had nothing to do with Garrus LI and everything to do with Tali.

Ohh Yeah I remember what I was going to say about ME3 and the disaster it is. One of the things that did a good job ruining the game for me (I know many of you have said it hurt the game for you too) was auto-dialogue.

I was doing the Ranoch missions the last 3 days, (sadly I've only been able to gag down two full ME3 playthroughs since March 6th, and this is my attempt at a 3rd and finale one for the achievements), anyway I noticed while on the Geth dreadnaught, when planing a route to the Reaper signal, you get the stupid eye thing, not a conversation just an eye to watch the ship display light up while you hash things over with Tali about what to do.

Not only did it make me feel distanced and removed it harmed the overall story and small plot points at every turn. For instance right after you start to head to that long battery area of the Geth ship, Raan (spelling?) comes over the radio, and says something about Zaal'Koris ship going down attempting to take out a land canon for warmongering Han'Gerrel's stupidity.

Now on my first playthrough I completely missed that part, so I didn't know about Zaal'Koris until after I was back on the Normandy and punched Han'Gerrel.

It would have been far more effective to have the Stupid EYE thing to watch the display of the Geth ship light up, play out as a true ME conversation, which at the end Raan comes over the radio and informs ya of Zaal'Koris.

Another thing that bugged me was the auto-dialogue when you find Legion is being used to broad cast the Reaper signal, it should have been a true ME conversation there too. Really Legion gives you this lame story, that feels like the writers just didn't give a sh!t about the story. In the other ME games, you'd have had a full conversation there with investigate.

You'd feel like you knew all of the details from Legion and the Geths side, you'd been informed of what you decision about the Geth Heretics had done and what it changed or didn't change. Instead I got this lame auto-dialogue that was like here this is all you get you measly grunt.

It's even less informative then the information that Gears of War gives the players. Haha jerks you thought this was a story driven game dumb@sses we fooled ya.

[Moira-chan]

somehow your post is here twice, squee, i also respond it ^^
