Hmm, Utaker, you've given me an idea, After waking up alone, My Shep demands EDI to send him the video cam footage (the stuff during the time of ME2) from the ladies bathroom down on the crew deck, went about watching the stuff with Samara, and solo'd it. HHAHHAHAH, it's likely still open on his personal computer. SO I guess while everyone from the Normandy is on that planet and my Shep is on earth banging Samara, they can watch it and Liara can die because she's so upset Shep didn't bang her, but whacked off to Samara shower footage.

Perhaps that's better. I wouldn't like to see that. :sick:


True that. I've seen some of the mods for DA:O for the ogres and things. Really not something I wanted to see. I'd probably run instead of fight. :lol:


So did anyone else read that as orgies and things? As for the Banshee it's called Azure's Wraith, isn't there a game called that or something?

LOL, you chocked, and had to check your spelling. I made you see orgies, there too. I'm cracking up at that.

No I think I'm thinking of something newer for the PS3 or something it was some sort of DLC expansion pack if I recall correctly, called Azure's Wraith.

However I heard BW has Azure Dreams all with Liara, sometimes they have orgies in the office with their blow up Liaras and they don't just pound her azure, they make sure no hole goes unpounded and they must pound everyone's Liara in at least two holes, it's how they get motivated.

Driving by to say Azure Dreams was one of my favorite PS1 games. I even got the sequel on the DS.

And in honor of gears, I would totally go for Samara's azure than the other blueberry (lol)

On topic, for some idiotic reason I got ME2 cheap for the PS#. Plan to get some Thane/Samara combos going. I just need a save file that bypasses the long beginning.

I tried playing NWN and I suppose I might finish it one day but I have fallen into a game rut. I can only play for an hour at most then I just give up. Before ME3, I would be here all day and night with my current favorite game. I think ME3 left me gaming depressed. I'm not the regular depressed because I'm still happy and all that crap but show me a game and I get repulsed and want nothing to do with it after such a short time.

I can't blame it all on ME3 though, I was quite content ignoring the creators/created thing in FFXIII-2 and I got nearly to the end, so close to that final boss and eons long ending cutscene FF is known for until they threw in moving platforms high above ground. The rotating of them, the looking down, I threw up my dinner. Literally made me sick to my stomach.

SO I's been doing ME3 on Insanity forcing and gagging myself through one last playthrough, (only my 3rd playthrough that's sad given by the first month of ME1&ME2 I couldn't even count the number of playthroughs I did), anyway long story short, I'm at the very end of the game, back on Earth.

That dude that asks ya if there is anyone else you'd like to talk to, I think he is the Alliance Reacquisition Officer from ME1 I sh!t you not. He looks just like him only a bit older and more worn out, and his voice I think is the same VA.

Anyway sorry for that detour back to my point, the Alliance Reacquisition/Caller Officer Dude, all the people you can call, and it hit me the only squad mate that would never show up no mater what is Thane (oh and Legion too, but I really was indifferent to that Geth dude/Chick whatever it wanted to be) I was like NOOOO Thane never shows up NOOOOOOOO!!!!!


After having that fit, I called everyone, and the last person I called was Samara, I screamed again at my TV "NOOOO Shep stop standing there throw yourself at her hologram spouting how much you love her, DAMN YOU! YOU Stupid Son of a B!tch do it now! Throw yourself at her RIGHT NOW DO IT DO IT! DO it you dumb son of a b!tch at least you have the chance you dumb@ss, the Thane FemSheps don't, now throw yourself at her you dumb@ss tell her you love her do it now. OR else I will kill you"

Yeah he didn't do it, so I went up to that stupid gun thing and tried to get killed but it don't work, you can't die at that part for some odd reason, so I had to shut the dang game off. Because the next place I can let him die is after a long @ssed talk with all the people who are waiting around for the finale battle. Dang it, You stupid Shep.

Oh yes where was I now, oh um.................. my Banshee Spread Eagle pic, I posted that up on my tumblr last night and in less then 24 hours it has been reposted 25 times. Hehahahahhah nasty Banshee azure.

And yummy cupcake looks really yummy. I have a friend that made a Thane cookie http://lubyelfears.d...fset=0#/d4nku66 . And while I want one really, really badly, I probably couldn't bring myself to eat it. So it would eventually end up all old and gross.

OMGs. I'm away for a few days getting back into the swing of things at work and I miss so many awesome posts from everyone! So I'll just go from what I've read so far (I'm on page 474/5 atm).

Coldi i love your ideas. This is what I thought would happen, and it sure as hell makes more sense than willingly turn yourself back in (although laura is alliance through and through, so she probably would). Margurite I imagine would have gone rogue, same with Margaret. But especially Margurite. No one should have taken her away from Thane.

Re replayability: I've said it before, and I'll say it again, I'm not playing it anymore. And i definitely have to put that into the fanbook somewhere. Probably the conclusion.

@Emerald: I love that postcard. It is so beautiful, and I had to stop for a minute because I thought Thane was real in it! Granted I had to google translate that one, but now I know what runestvegar (spelling ?) means.

@utaker: Gods I love your girls. They are so hilarious. And Courtney is totally right.

@gears: Damn man, you're rants are brilliant. Only got about half-way through but I'll be back tonight, cause I actually have a day off tomorrow. Believe me, after 10-11hr shifts (meaning irl 11.5 - 12.5 hours at work) I bloody need it.

And it is now 4.50AM. i better get going or I'll be late. Takes nearly half an hour to get to work....

Am dropping off "Player Expectations" section of Whispers here. Could you please let me know if there is something missing? I'm not to sure atm, but then i am already sleep deprived. :S

Player Expections for Thane Krios is Mass Effect 3

Thane’s character arcs and romance in Mass Effect 2 were well-written, wonderfully animated, and beautifully voiced. They were of the highest calibre that players had come to expect from BioWare. As such, it was reasonable, despite BioWare being Electronic Arts’ newest acquisition, for players to expect the same quality.

Most common of expectations was that players would learn something new about Thane’s character, the drell as a species, and Hanar and drell society and history. Players expected to be able to develop a relationship with Kolyat, or to interact with character’s associated with Thane and his son. Once players heard about the Citadel “dates,” and how the Mass Effect 2 squad were to join the Normandy as “temporary squadmates,” they expected this to also apply to Thane. Those who chose to romance Thane expected his romance arc and its significant changes to his character to carry through into Mass Effect 3. They expected the “I love you” they read in his Lair of the Shadow Broker dossier (Section Eight: Lair of the Shadow Broker Downloadable Content) to be confessed aloud, and they expected a touching, bittersweet love scene at the end, just like they saw in Mass Effect 2. They expected the so-called “cheating” consequences to be substantial. Player’s certainly expected Thane to trigger the Paramour achievement.

Most important of all, love interest or not, players expected there to be an option to save Thane.

Mass Effect games had always been about choice, and BioWare had never forced a Love Interest’s death before. So players expected Thane’s survival to be dependent on various plot flags from the previous games. They also expected the choice to be difficult, with all the personal and socio-political ramifications resulting from the decisions made during Thane’s missions.

Players most certainly did not want a magic cure.

Considering how BioWare themselves foreshadowed his cure (Section Nine: Allusions and Avenues to a Treatment or Cure), accepted player petitions (reference Cure Thane collab pic – ask hanar!), and even launched Facebook campaigns to cure Thane, (refer to Figure…) players believed the option for his continued survival to be guaranteed.

In a universe where the dead can be brought back to life, this was not considered an unreasonable, nor narratively unfeasible, expectation.

What players did not want was for his death to be poorly handled. Should the worse come to pass, they expected his death to be handled with respect and dignity. They expected Shepard, love interest or not, to show some emotion after his passing. They expected squadmates to comment on his passing, and if he was Shepard’s love interest, they expected Shepard to be comforted by those closest to her.

They expected Thane to be remembered.

What players feared most was that Thane would be forgotten; that his own words: “It seems there will be no one to mourn me when I die,” would become prophetic. They feared that no one, not even Shepard, would remember him in the end.

Yet this, the thing they most feared, was exactly what happened…




Okay, I'm off to work :crying: I'll see you tonight! :lol:

What I really wanted was Thane right outside the little boardwalk place that sells fried ice cream but apparently no one bothered to take a picture of that. My husband stopped me from what I was doing... adding Thane to my wedding photo. He didn't like that, he said some things are sacred. So, nice beach pictures it is. (pouts)

And, he noticed that one and said, "Our honeymoon photos? Is nothing off limits to you?" No. Next question.

Back in the booth for more #ME3 DLC, this time with @myownfairytale and @PJMcChocolate!


DO I even want to know who or what @PJMcChocolate and @myownfairytale are and how they are involved with ME3 DLC?

Mr Utaker is a very understanding man, the wedding pictures, and honey moon pictures, heh I'm sorry I'm imagining my mom doing something like that with the pics of her and my dad on their wedding and honey moon shortly after they got devorved. Given my dad it tech tarded I can't see him figuring it out, also he didn't b!tch and fight over much when my Mom walked out just let her walk out with as much sh!t as she liked, then he b!tched about it afterwords saying how she just took everything.

Whenever he goes on those weird tiraids I look all puzzled like, hmmm I recall very well what went down, I was about to start my sophmore year in high school dad, and I recall it very well, no robbing you just  acted all cool about her taking as much sh!t (how come everone else stuff is sh!t and your sh!t is stuff?) as she wanted, it was all rather odd, my mom went batty and lost it, dad just sat there as she packed all that sh!t up and then he b!tches about how she just took everything of his, she robbed him blind, and it's been how many years latter and he still goes off about that.

Yeah my parents are odd to say the least.
