The problem is this fanbase is no better than the plague back in the 1800's. You guys infect everything you touch! Can't just leave our games alone everything has to be perverted. Now this dude is whining about one human squadmate? he can suck a big one and I hope he chokes on it

Exactly, i certainly wouldn't want to play a game solely comprised of the various wishes on these forums, I'm glad the devs take note of things though.

Thats a frightening prospect. I suspect it would involve 40 hours of sitting on the Normandy talking to your chosen LI, changing their outfit every once in a while, deeper RPG mechanics which includes evolving your skills in hand holding and baby making, unlimited conversation trees, no tutorial whatsoever because as we all know new players are scum and an inventory.

Ever heard of ignore?  Like I said, no need to be hateful.

I want him. I don't want nothing but aliens on my team. Variety is the spice of life and all of that. Besides, he looked pretty cool in the trailer when he was tuning up to pwn face with the Widow.

I just want a well balance character.  Matters little to me what species the character is.

You know, now I want my team is going to consist of Kaidan, M!Shep and James Vega, just to see how much CRAP I get for carting around a band of human males.

Instead of James Vega. Bioware should have trolled new comers and made they story incredibly confusing and impossible to follow UNLESS you import from ME 1 OR 2. At least make him an interesting charecter. I want a snarky British guy 

Now that's a marketing strategy.

At this point I would much rather have Big Ben, but that's not to say we--well, know *anything* about Vega yet.

I'll be my own sniper, as usual on my first playthrough of ME3, but that's not to say that I'd never consider Vega. Depends entirely on what he's like, which we haven't seen yet at all.

Did anyone WANT Thane? Did anyone WANT Grunt? Did anyone WANT Jacob? Did anyone WANT Miranda? Did anyone WANT [insert new ME2 squadmate name here]? But they stuck around. Deal with it.

I wouldn't care how much crap I'd get

I'd just be too busy dying because I'm staring at them too much

His last name's Vega, which is stupid enough for me to dismiss him outright, even knowing nothing else about him.

If Big Ben's name were actually "Big Ben," it'd still be better than "Vega."

Kudos to Bioware and the ME team. James is a testament towards them sticking with their artistic vision instead of being fully fan service and profits.

Mass Effect 3: Team 1, Williams and Vakarian; Team 2, T'Soni and Vega.

Good 'nuff for me.

I am giving him the benefit of the doubt. He can't be that bad.

Oh Zemiious, I missed your particularly violent brand of trolling.  It feels like it's been days!

Which plague was this? If you're referring to the bubonic plague, or "Black Death," that would be the twelfth century (1300-1400). Although, I suppose an argument could be made that Napoleon was a plague, or slavery and feudalism...

I just thought this was interesting terminology to use after accusing fans of aliens of being perverts.


Now, there's no need to be mean. I mean, really--it's just a game. 

The argument that "humans are better than aliens" or vice-versa is rather silly, not only because this is a completely fictional universe, but because it's a preference entirely dependent on the player. Personally, I've enjoyed every character written for Mass Effect, and I doubt that just because Vega is human that he will be inherently awful. Or necessarily awesome. Because the truth is, each character has a lot to offer in the way of developing a more substantial universe within the games, it's just up to the player to decide whether or not to investigate the complexities of those characters.

At the end of the day, you might say Jack/Kaiden/Ashley/Zaeed/Conrad Verner is the most interesting character, and I might be left scoffing to myself a bit, because Kasumi is obviously better in every way and she didn't even have real conversation options (not that you would have to agree). Which is why Mass Effect is awesome and beautiful; it offers something great to every player, regardless of our differences.

And if you can't tolerate that, then, well... whatever?

Just becuase he's human dosen't mean people wont like him, heck Ashley and Kaidan are my two favourite characters, and I like Jack, Zaeed, Kasumi, Miranda and Jacob too. Yes some fans dismiss the human characters as boring becuase they're not aliens, but I usually like the humans more, we learn about them as a person, not there race.

This is actually what I want.  Well written characters.  Even if I don't particularly like a character, I've never actually seen one that wasn't well written.

Quite the arrogant one, are you?

This is YOUR opinion, buddy.

Man -- Did BioWare put themselves in a hard position....They are going to have a hard time finding ways to fill up missing characters from ME2 play-throughs. But I guess they wouldn't of done it if they didn't already have a plan.


Truly, i don't want to replace all of the missing characters.  If people died in one of my games  I'd like to have to make do with those that are left.  

On the other hand, I'd like to choose who I want back and have a couple of extra choices to pick from.  Probably won't happen that way, but interesting and definitely increase the number of times I play to see what different groupings do.

My only problem with Vega is that he is not Big Ben.

Their is nothing special about aliens other than they are aliens.

You can give Jacob Garuus's personality and people will think he's trying to hard to be cool and is annoying.
My fave suaddies are Ash, Jack, Kasumi, Jacob, and Miranda

Least fave are Tali, Garrus, Liara, Thane, and Samara

To the OP, I'd say no, few of us probably 'wanted' Vega, but Sheps importing just 2 squadmates could well be toast w/o an extra guy in ME3.

TO OP not everyone likes Tali for most she sits onboard the Normandy in my games. I most take williams and Liara or Wrex and Garrus. I think variety is good and if Vegas is an intresting character i may take as my new bromance sqad mate.
