If the VS gets hysterical about Shepard "cheating" on them, I would be forced to kick them out of the nearest airlock on the ship. Liara is the only one for whom the term "cheating" comes even close to accurate.

If they just talk about it with Shep, then that would be interesting. Or possibly even a conflict scene between the two LI, depending on the character. With Ashley and Jack/Miranda, I can see sparks flying. With Kaidan/Liara and Tali/Garrus/Thane/Jacob, I don't see it getting all that heated.

Well, I guess it will be dependent on the character. I mean, soft Liara would probably be more understanding and forgive you, Ashley would probably be furious, etc.

Big fight = open relationship? Maybe you should try that out in real life and see how it ends up :)

I completely agree! The events on Horizon were pretty hurtful and to the pont. Assuming that your LI was either Ash or Kaidan then all you ended up with was an "I've moved on, it's been two years, please don't die again" and going into a suicide mission and given the option of "blowing off some steam" so to speak would be very tempting.

I would play through ME3 just to get to the option of your first LI confronting you about your seccond relationship just so I can angrily put them in their place and tell them to get f****d

^^ Agreed. even though this doesnt really apply to me as I have just replayed ME1&2 with both my main Sheps with no ME1 LI's so they could be dedicated to the ME2 ones!

I just hope there is an option to tell the VS to get f****d even if you didnt romance them Image IPB

I romanced Ash in 1 but in ME2 I went on to romance Miranda. And I have to say, it's not cheating. Ashley made thigs very clear on Horizon, she said I betrayed her. I think I have every right to move on to a new LI after she said that. There shouldn't be any major reaper-cussions for romancing someone else in ME2 because Ashley made it very clear that she didn't want to come with me. Oh and a simple Email doesn't fix that.

I'm really hoping for a fight between Ash and Miranda, my renegade Shepard has already sold the movierights to Joker.

It'd definitely not be plot relevant (there are to many different combinations and it'S even possible to not romance anyone so...)

Your ME2 romance wouldn't care that you were in a relationship before,and Liara would be hurt but understanding,Ashley would probably react similar to how she does when you choose Liara over her and Kaidan would go mope in the corner (unless they keep the Horizon characterization;then they both would probably be highly dramatic ;)

It would probably only be interesting if you chose your ME1 romance over your ME2 one:
Tali would probably be heartbroken but if she ****es at somebody it'll be you for leading her on and not your LI (although I could see some hostility brewing afterwards)
Garrus I can both see stepping down and accepting Shepards choice and wanting to fight for her (but I'd actually find that one more unbelieveable because both Kaidan and Liara are more soft spoken and probably wouldn't want to fight with him in the first place + they all fought Saren/Sovereign together...
Thane would be understanding
Even a mellowed out Jack would make her rivals life hell...
Miranda..since there was already so much conflict between potential LIs -Miranda/Jack and to a way lesser extend Jacob/Thane - I'm hoping they'll leave it out in the new game,which would probably mean that Ash and her would get along just fine and she would lick her wounds in private...if not I think she would react similar to Ashley. With Liara she might be a little ****y and trying to argue with Shepard
Jacob...will not show up if I remember correctly

My guess is that the consequences might be something like the aftermath of Jack's renegade sex. Whoever gets burned might be really hostile to Shep and and tell him/her to "shove off." B)

But it shouldn't be plot related as others have said. I also don't think there will be a "catfight" of any kind.

Strong words, yes. Fisticuffs, no.

Actually I think it may play out differently than just a cheating consequences - most of ME2 romances where constructed a s "fling" something quick that Shep had with someone else, as an opposite to the more emotionally leaden romances of ME1.
Thane is dying - so no future.
Miranda and Jakob are Cerberus - it's possible they live when you part ways with Cerberus.
Jack is unstable and "in search" - it woun't be out of character for her to pack her things and go.
Tali has to suffer a fever after anything physical, so one time may be all it can be.
Garrus ans Shep are specifically discuss it as a stress relive and are not fully compatible physically.
So the romances where constructed in such a way that they can be just an episode of Shep cheating on their true love.
But the thing is - a lot of people actually want to stay with their ME2 fling and have a proper romance with them, leaving the previous LI. Which kind of makes it harder to be "punished for cheating", since it was not cheating but moving on...
At least if Bioware gives the fans an option to stay with ME2 choice, and I personally thing that Talli and Garrus fans will eat the whole company alive if they don't :D

Lol - My hubby and  would be there with pitchforks and burning torches if garrus and tali didnt have their romanes continued - thankfully bioware know how popular they are so I dont think its a worry Image IPB

@ Victia
I certainly hope so! *goes off to sharpen a pitchfork just in case* :D
But it is something that I believe they'll have to change form the "initial plan" - even Bioware did not expect us to like our quarians and turians quite that much :D

I think most of us in here are looking at the whole "cheating" thing from the wrong perspective. The VS will be the first squaddie on the ship in ME3, and I'm sure those Shepards who romanced the VS will be presented with the immediate opportunity to renew the romance. Those that do will then be cheating on their ME2 LI, much as those that romanced Liara in ME1 and then reunited with her in LotSB. The VS might be realistically understanding regarding their relationship status, what with the whole "We were on a break!" thing.

My guess is that it's going to be the ME2 LI that's going to feel like they've been cheated on, not the other way around.

Wow... that puts the "cheating" in a whole new light.  An interesting perspective I never thought about until now! :unsure:

It'll probably be along the lines of ME2 if you didn't "properly" diffuse a situation. I would hate for Miranda to die if I picked someone else (although I probably want to kill myself if I ever make THAT decision)

It'll more or less be the "make a choice" where the rejected one leaves with the neutral option being "Let's just be friends" (as if that negates being rejected, but that is the most used response). There may be some kind of fight though just to "keep interest." They seem to be aiming for it with the way they're pushing the "AHC" thing.

Sounds stupid and unreal. If i was a women i would kick the guy in the nuts and leave him if he cheated but in me3 they all suck up to you and let you choose between them.


None of my shepards have pursued a ME2 romance if they had one in ME1, but I still don't consider the romance in ME2 as cheating, they all just moved on to a new chapter in their lives. Depending on how BW handles this I may or may not go back and and play a Shepard who does find the feelings for ME2 LI is stronger than the one from ME1.

I hope they give the option of telling the ME1 romance good luck and best wishes as one option because I know a number of players who did find some of the ME2 romance options more to their liking and 

But if I can't do that, I would love to see Ash and Miranda or whoever the two LI are, tell Shepard to go for a walk in space without a suit and go out for drinks together.  I hate the whole tacky fight idea.    Like your idea too.  :)

I doubt it will be relevant to the plot, its totally optional, so I doubt it will matter that much. And yeah I can agree with the above, they could always approach it as making the ME2 LI the victim of Shepard's philandering ways. But at the same time, they could let the ME1 LI not so much throw a fit, like everyone is expecting. They could could just try and guilt trip Shep about how that other LI isn't around when they need them, couldn't even bother to come to their trial. And I would hope that each LI's response to Shepard would be character exclusive, but I'm not holding my breath.

Ugh.

Shepard did not cheat on the VS.

Only person you *can* cheat on is Liara. And that's only if Shep gets back with her in LoTSB and keeps sleeping with his/her ME2 LI.


Agree.  Hate the word Cheat when used on the VS survivor.  Agree, you can cheat on Liara but with the VS survivor Shepard either moved on or wants to try and rekindle the romance.  IMO

Liara: Lists all the people she's cheated on you with

Ashley: Knees you in the nuts and headbutts you, then kicks you while you're on the ground throwing up

Kaidan: Gives some goofy emo speech
