@Myth thanks don't be sorry I was looking for exactly that sort of critiquing of my work, and who better to ask about Thane than the Thane fans?

Utaker Thank you too. Much appreciated all of it.

Yes the delivery of Thane's lines is often what I tend to find hardest, his' unique way of putting things. As for the comment about Kolyat and not thinking about that, I sort of put that in there as Thane's own unique way of saying he'd rather not have any inquiries down that path.

As for the Reapers and Thane's long drawn out questions, I found it seemed (at least to me) Thane did that sort of thing whenever, he was maybe poking those subjects that made you really think about things. As for that instance it's more Thane poking my Shep with those questions that sort of make him think about things.

Anyway for those of you who'd like better context for my Thane dialogue scene it can be found here
http://gearseffect.t...oints-chapter-1
I'll get to work reworking Thane's dialogue, I'm a bit of a perfectionist hence why I asked you all.

@Utaker your comment about it taking so long to write Thane, my god I spent around 60 minutes to an 90 minutes on just that one scene with Thane. However Thane is small time for me, the number of hours I spend agonizing writing Awakening/Samara my god that is insane. She's much more walled off than any other character, so writing for her is extremely hard.

Jack is easy, I looooove writing Jack. She's foul mouthed and well straight forward, and well just so much fun to write.

Anderson is easy too, I attribute that to his VA Keith David I just imagine him saying the lines if they don't work I toss it away find another way to do it.

Myth about the Thane fans and having more life experiences as opposed to other fan bases, I agree fully.

I really have no problems writing Javik, Joker, and Jack. LOL...the J's. Probably because if you took all three of their personalities (the troll, the comedic smart ass, and the foul mouth) well, it would be no different than asking me to write me. What I would give to hear Thane drop an "F" bomb. I'd probably be in a state of shock.

Shep: Are you alright?
Thane: I have time. You need to go after him.
Shep: Ok.
Thane: Could I trouble you for some medi-gel?
Shep: I don't think I can spare any even though I'm playing on God Mode.
Thane: I see. Shepard....
Shep: What happened to Siha?
Thane: Very well. Siha, F**k You.

That about Jack, that p!ssed of kid she was in ME2 reminded me of myself in high school, ME3 she's extremly grown up and responsible, with an extremly huge sense of responsibilty and loyal as all hell, yep that seems like me. haha Jack I love writing her, she's fun as hell. Because it just comes naturaly for me given well I don't have to think much about it.

An odd question maybe or thought processes Utaker sparked it,

About Thane and his LM with Kolyat receiving the package. I know that if you don't talk to any of your squad-mates they'll still come up with their LM. However that's something I've always felt many of them wouldn't just ask a complete stranger to make a detour for.

So removing the aspect of the game play narrative and all. My angle on Thane not finding out about Kolyat and his LM thing was,

His mind my as well have already been dead,
He did the Dantius thing expecting to be killed in the process
He prepared that stuff for Kolyat to receive after his death
So if in his mind he'd already considered himself dead why would he think of Kolyat getting that package? He knew he'd get it in the event he died. So perhaps his mind already accepted Kolyat too had gotten the package or would shortly.
However he slowly begins to wake from his battlesleep and if Thane had considered himself dead maybe others had too. Maybe Kolyat had gotten the package too soon.

Not sure if that makes sense or not but that was my reasoning for writing that stuff the way I did. Any thoughts on it? Should I maybe include/incorporate that in Thane's dialogue?

Since I believe everyone has ulterior motives, I had assumed the moment Thane said he didn't know how Kolyat had gotten it that TIM had everything to do with that. He played Shepard like a puppet, he wanted her sympathetic to her squadmates. What else could Thane ask for that would bother him to the point that he went to Shepard? His son. I was always under the assumption that since he knew where to track down Thane to begin with, he would know how to contact Kolyat.

Just as I know darn well that TIM knew exactly who Archangel was when he sent Shepard to Omega. If anyone has read the books and other crap, one is well aware that TIM is quite capable of finding a needle in a haystack.

@gears. Glad to see you were able to make sense of my ramblings. Good to know I make sense even when I don't make sense. Does that make sense?

Oh, and the life experience thing, thanks. I thought so, but wanted to see what everyone else though. You are the only one who's answered though.

@utaker and gears.... I never even thought about it to be honest, but TIM ****ing with them makes perfect sense.

And I was going to upload an update for the essay that's seriously bugging me (SOOOOO not happy with it), only to realise I've lost my USB stick. *sigh* I so seriously suck.

Ah, well, at least it's being done.

As for Operation Drop Thane's Pants..... WAIT FOR MEEEEEE! I'S GOT THE CHERRIES!!!!!!! (A whip too, if he starts misbehaving. ;) )

He get's an image and plaque at least. I am revolted. Your LI tells Joker to abandon you. That's it for me. So long ME, you are now my most hated series. I am done here at the bsn as well. Like they will gives us Thane content that isn't centered around death. Because death and gloom is so cool. I just feel sick all over again.

.... I knew I shouldn't have asked. I feel like I'm going to have to cry myself to sleep as it is after having to watch ME3 Thane vids to fact check the Illusions section of the essay.

Gods, I have no hope now that the fanbook will result in anything, not that I had much before.

The LI tells Joker to abandon you? Gods, BioWare, what the **** WERE YOU THINKING?!

I knew Priestly going on holiday this week was a bad sign.

*sigh* **** it, I'm gonna finish the essay anyway.

@gears, so, is there any difference in thane's death scene between a non-romanced female shepard and a male shepard? I know the prayer's different if kolyat reads it, but I'm wondering if it's different between a male and female shepard.

Screw that, I say post it in the thread.  I, for one, have no intention of putting myself through that again just to see what little lip-service BW attempted to pay.

I think most of us would probably want to know what happens before we play it, to determine if we even want to go there.

Others agree/disagree?

Otherwise, please PM me, as well.

He just appears as a flashback before Shepard dies. That's all. I'm trying to find out if this is a strictly romance thing, cause there is a second set of flashbacks that shows other characters that may have died in ME3. The second set has a voice over saying they will never be forgotten for their sacrifices, and literally it can be down to just Legion and Mordin if you play the game right. Thane is not in the second set of flashbacks period.

Guess they really want to drive home that only Shepard will remember Thane?

I watched someone's manshep file, and Thane was in the flashback before Shep died. It doesn't seem to be tied to whether or not Thane was romanced...maybe the shots are more random now?

Oh man, that was a terrible thing to pop into the thread and see.

Made a decent twitter post so I could spread the misery, though:

Of course, that assumes that there will BE a next time, and I know for me there won't be unless a miracle happens.

Can you please explain this? I don't get it, especially since Thane is dead. When does he do this? Or, even better, how does he do this?

So confused....and no desire to play it for myself...

In most of the videos I saw, Garrus tells Joker to fly the Normandy out of there. A few of them I believe Garrus was a romance.

Meh, I ended up with a Thane (only custom file of mine they didn't replace), Legion, Thane (new one) flashback and I had Javik tell Joker he had no choice but to abandon.

Oh sorry. I threw out my Thane file because I was so upset when I played me3 the first time. I only had my garrus romance available so it showed Garrus telling Joker it was time to leave. Like a knife in the heart. Thane's flashback seems to have replaced joker's and isn't romance related.. I watched someone else's destroy ending just to see. It had Sheploo romancing Ashley and Thane's flashback showed. Liara told Joker to leave in it so I guess it's random who says to abandon shep. Still messed up to me. They are all up on youtube now. Here's a link to all of them. www.youtube.com/watch

I'm downloading the EC to my xbox at a painfully slow rate. From the sound of it, it doesn't seem worth the space on my hard drive or worth a replay of the ending.

Thane's appearance in the flashback sounds kind of random. If it's not based on whether or not he was Shep's LI, what is it based on?

And I'm sad to hear he isn't included in the other flashback sequence with other heroes who died like Mordin and Legion. Nice BioWare. Way to trivialize Thane's death even further. :( Was that their way of rubbing in the fact that he won't be remembered by anyone?

What? Thane appeared in my flashback along with the other heroes who died. O.o

I don't know about the LI flashback as I'm just touching my Garrus playthrough and not the Thane one.
