There's a renegade option in the love scene? Really?
Did any one else feel the like you were getting ninja romanced at times? Like after the Citadel coup, I go up to my room, trying to mourn for my friend Thane, and here come two flings(And Vega, but I didn't mind his and it was cool)!
Not an renegade interrupt, if that's what you're asking, just a renegade answer. Shep says "I'm fine" instead of confessing her anxiety, basically.
YES. I got hit on three times right after losing Thane. Samantha, James (sorta) and... Diana Allersto this day I still don't understand the purpose of her character.
Samantha's adorable, but I'm playing a straight Shep.
And I like James but come on... didn't you notice there's a turian in my bed? Geez.
They were using the Vulture tactic. Wait until you're vulnerable then swoop in.
I can remember a bit where James is getting his N7 tattoo and my Shepard asked him (obviously jokingly in my mind) if he's ever going to make good on all his flirting. His stuttering attempt at a reply was hilarious.
Diana Allers only use was giving options for boosting war assets through the replies in her interviews. If she didn't do that I would have introduced her to the airlock.
I let Diana on board because apparently she was a war asset. 5 points? What the hell. The only reason she stayed on board was for the interviews >> And I- and my Shep- didn't see her 'I'll follow you home' comment as flirting, just as a 'you keep making my ratings skyrocket'.
I didn't mind James's flirting, and he seemed to be doing it with Steve so I just took it as friendly banter p:
Samantha is so cute, though I didn't realise that she was trying to flirt with my Shep until the 'join her' option came up xD
So I guess me and my Shep have serious tunnel vision and think only of Garrus.
Speaking of which, I wish I had an iPhone. The Datapad app that lets you get mail from him is the cutest ever

I'm also annoyed with how the game pushed Liara or the VS at you. Look, if I like them that much, I probably would have got with them in ME1. I would not, as I did after I found out Garrus was romancable, gone back to an early ME1 save and killed Kaiden so I wouldn't cheat.

Did anyone else have this happen to them? Just awful.
That incredibly tense moment when you're trying to bone your alien boyfriend in front of your IRL boyfriend.
Hahahahaa omg I'm dying here. I know exactly how you are feeling, hence I never do those moments when my bf is not busy with anything else, It's my private moments! He can't join

My only remaining wish was to see the Reapers crash and burn at this point. Synthesis is complete evil in my opinion.
... at least I saved Earth. Yay.
Yep, I could never pick control or synthesis. In the first, you become one with what you hate and have been fighting for three games. In the second, you essentially rape the universe by imposing your choices on every sentient being. No thanks.
For me it's always destroy, not that the endings change much between the three. Which is why I think it must be a dream. I hope.
I won't give up on Garrus!

I was just hated the timing. I actually liked Samatha, but I'm irritated that the relationship is more of a fling. If it was developed like Cortez, I might not have minded it too much.
I'm also annoyed with how the game pushed Liara or the VS at you. Look, if I like them that much, I probably would have got with them in ME1. I would not, as I did after I found out Garrus was romancable, gone back to an early ME1 save and killed Kaiden so I wouldn't cheat.
I never felt Liara was pushed romantically. But the VS? Man. The beginning of ME3 there are all of these long looks between Shep and Kaidan and them sort of acting like they still have something. Ugh.

The most annoying part about it is that I turned Kaidan down in ME1. I DO NOT WANT TO FLIRT WITH HIM NOW tyvm. So stop forcing him on me when I'm with Garrus. I couldn't even tell him to **** off since I'm happily with a turian, no instead I had to be nice to him when turning him down >.>

Exactly. Most importantly, you give into the wishes of that abomination of a God child if you pick control or merge. It encourages you to. My Shep would never obey a Reaper.
Plus, red is pretty.
None of us is giving up Garrus methinks.

Well remembering my conversation choices at the beginning of Mass Effect I wouldn't blame Kaidan for not believing I was with Garrus. "I don't like the idea of putting my life in the hands of a Turian, sir." comes to mind, from right back at the beginning of Eden Prime. I was such a racist back then, kinda like Pressly from the first entries in his datapad journal in ME2.
I avoided that whole situation by blowing Kiadan up on Virmire, though. Then I got Ashley back on board after the Citadel and she p****d me off with her comments about the Geth. <_<

Haha same thing! I kept being rude to Garrus in ME1. I found it deliciously ironic that Shep would be so wary of him at first and fall completely in love with him two years later.
I don't like what they did with the VS in ME3. Always that trust issue... Garrus and Tali never questioned your decisions, they followed you when you needed them, period. Wrex and Liara still trusted you even if their duties took them elsewhere. Of the ME1 squad, only the VS keeps b*tching about Cerberus after the end of ME2. It's annoying, especially in a romance.

In my NG+ I didn't even care. Picked all of the meaner actions when Kaidan demanded I answer for things. Whatever. I wish there was the same conversation options BroShep has with Ashley when you've romanced someone else. She gets super b*tchy and Shepard basically says 'you are the one that turned your back on me and now you are angry for moving on?' it was fantastic.

This has happened to me three times now, with Garrus, Alistair, and Anders. My BF is a gamer too but usually doesn't play BioWare games--he prefers to glance over and watch me play whenever he's curious. It makes the romances interesting
We both have a pretty good sense of humor about it, though, even it it gets awkward.

You know, that might make me completely renounce my VS romance playthrough. I've been dying to romance Tali anyway... sorry Ash, Tali's just adorable and she always has my back.
Plus, "emergency induction port..."

Ugh, I was nice to Kaidan at first, but then he started saying that 'there is no one else'. The forced feelings for the VS really took the biscuit. Next PT, I'm being mean to him. Maybe he'll get it this time >>

Though, the video I saw was for Shep/Miranda so I don't know 100% for Tali or Liara. I assume there is something similar.
Am I the only one dissapointed that there isn't some kind of major cat fight between LIs?

The fangirl in me says "yay catfight for my love!". But honestly it would have been very hard to pull off in a convincing manner. They're all adults. Shep's not a piece of ham. I think they're mature enough not to act like teenagers.
It would be delightful to watch, of course.

Pants on an ass, really? I was considering saving Kaidan when I replay ME1 since Ash is such a flaming witch-with-a-b, but that is gonna be really annoying.
I said it on the Thane thread, and I'll say it again here. Getting the VS to back off on the ninjamance is like trying to peel off an overly cuddly octopus.

I picked Destroy in a heartbeat. The other two had me agreeing with a freaking Reaper. But honestly, if I could have, I would have yelled "Bullsh*t" to the damn Catalyst and showed it the geth armada fighting alongside the Quarians to prove that its logic was completely flawed.
Funny, I only tried out first Synthesis and then ControlAll I could think about was that I didn't want to kill EDI and the Geth XD

Nope! I was really disappointed. I was looking forward to Kaidan being a ****, and Garrus taking the higher ground and walking away. 'Cause you know he would.
That, or Garrus headbutting Kaidan, Harkin-style.
Ah, I have a question: when you get hit with the Reaper beam near the end, does your squad die? 'Cause I almost always have Garrus with me, but I don't want him ending up as a turian roast.
