and just throwing this out there... do you really think that if people were told there was a 99.999% chance of death on the mission the following day, there would NOT be a massive orgy?

If they were then informed by their commanding officer that the ramifications of said orgy were a 100% chance of being thrown out the airlock, then yes, there would not be a massive orgy.

too late.

If it's already known as such, we might as well go there.

jk by the way. I was actually tempted to send a snarky email to fox news asking for a reimbursement for the cost of ME1 as I had bought the game after seeing their reviews in expectation of receiving an interactive porn videogame, only to find that it was in fact an amazing RPG/shooter. I WANT MY MONEY BACK!

So basically you want the whole Normandy to have an orangey.

Well of course. I wouldn't want them to get Scurvy.

While I don't have an issue with it- not my cup of tea, but I won't begrudge others- is that you need the other squaddies to show interest in the other as well, which means canonically at this point, the one shot you have is Shepard/Miranda/Jacob, since Miranda and Jacob have a previous connection. Not saying it can't happen, but then you have the issue of, say, Garrus, who flat out admits that he doesn't have a thing for humans, generally, (Garrus might be the greatest example of a Shepard-sexual character in-game) or Thane, who has never experienced affection for another species before.

Again, not against the idea, but that is a hurdle to be jumped.

I agree, that's why I suggested the multiple squaddies interaction thing. kind of like the elevator scenes, but interactive. allowing you to hit on more than one squadmate at a time and publicly removes the unpleasant connotations of trying to go behnd each LI's back. it would also allow them to get to know each other and build a rapport.

You could have a threesome (or even foursome) in DA:O along with s/s romances. Now ME3 has s/s romances. So I wouldn't rule it out.

[Drake_Hound]

LoL this one really made me reply and laugh .

Serious note to all the prudist out there , the option to romance all is already there , just you need to dump one to get another .
Well that is the way I played it , since ME1 chosen to as rpg weakness for Shepard women ...
So offcourse after sleeping with the aseri consort, not going to settle for a thank you , she damn well know what Shepard wanted

And I continue all the way down to choosing both , To my suprise when Imported Shepard into ME2 , the fun keeps continueing , anyway he wouldn´t commit to anyone anyway .
LoL first time a paragon get all the women

But back to serious note , what is wrong in a video game , that allows S/S ,alien relationships to have a trio ?
Honestly it would break bounderies , aside from Japan not many other games do that .
A three way relationship , that doesn´t end in a two way choices ...

I know it is messy to implement and would be a writers nightmare , but then again Bioware writers and story tellers have been creative in many department ..
When I choose the option Can´t I have you both in ME1 , i fully expect both to walk away , instead of Liara staying.
And that and the face of pervy Shepard makes me laugh . was a big suprise .

[jeweledleah]

players can see ME relationships in a lot of ways, but the thing is npc's are written to see those relationships as you know, actual relationships. every single LI so far takes their relationship with shepard seriously. a few profess their love. some come pretty close to it. all of them show that they care on an emotional level. its not just sex for them. and unlike the ever popular defense of the "lets make my favorite character bi because they never said they weren't" - they pretty much outright tell you that they won't share. the only one who was maybe possibly considering something, was Liara and apparently, she changed her mind about being able to share in ME2.

so unless Bioware implements light romances that they were considering in ME2, but eventually cut due to lack of time - you are basically out of luck with current LI's unless bioware (here's that dreaded word) retcons them.

Bioware is not CDprojekt. Shepard is not Geralt. I wish people would stop trying to make them into this same entity

[Drake_Hound]

Sorry this is where you are wrong , I do not dictate Shepard , neither do you dictate Shepard .
We play Shepard way we want to play it , including ending his story in ME2 , if we killed it he is dead.
That you love the LI interest to be bigger then life , sadly it already changed in ME2 where you don´t have to stay faithfull , just like life sometimes other options comes up .
And people seperate there ways , one get hurt possibly both , but in the end you move on .

[Skirata129]

I don't see why light romances would be cut due to lack of time. honestly to be believable, all they would need is, "hey Shep, we're probably going to die tomorrow, want to enjoy the last night together?" "Sure, why not."

that's basically a light romance.

[Drake_Hound]

Nah that is boring , Skirata I like the way Aseri Consort was implemented , Simple straight down to business , a favor for a favor .... Tali infact is a prime example , sorry talimancers going to hurt your feelings ,
If a renegade Shepard want to sleep with her and then dump her , She would do it anyway no matter the outcome cause she is so idolised by Shepard , she would do it anyway .... and still forgive him .
Sure her loyalty would drop , but She would do it anyway , just her naivety of wanting to be the only one , is what makes it a one on one .
The two real characters I found most interesting in those department were Jack and Samara.
Jack cause of don´t give a ..... lets do it , true to her character and stories she told .
Samara cause she is wise enough to not commit , even how much she want too , cause of her age.

[slimgrin]

This thread is what Bioware employees post above the water cooler so they can remind themselves not to pay attention to the forums.

Light romances? What a joke.

Isn't this pretty much what happens in 1?

*reads*
Bwahahaha! Ahahahaha!
Skirata129, I give you applause for making me laugh this hard.
It's funny enough that I want to see that. Maybe an incentive for players who beat it on Insanity? Just a spoof like the extra ending in Silent Hill? Could see Liara and Kelly considering it...

[Skirata129]

or liara, kelly and Shiala. now THAT just blew everyone's mind.

No basically not , if you play it that way , everything is a light romance ..
But all the characters or squad members have a story .
Example you already heard about Aria from Wrex , Beter Luck next time clue ...
Now you can choose to be indept to get closer to the toons , even the consort has stories to tell .
Even Jack the one that is the most simple to get without strings attached , still has stories to tell about her past.

The light romance , lets have sex go to the fadeout screen , I would find totally uninteresting .
Like in Witcher 2 , save the elf woman , or sleep with Ves on the other route , the sleeping with Ves (hope i spelled her name correctly) Was much more interesting then sleeping with the elf woman .
Who was just a filler , saved her life , she wants to repay you , no attachement nothing .
If done that way , please don´t might as well put a hooker you pay 100 credit for .

[Skirata129]

not really, though the consort did go that way. Friends with benefits describes more of what they should implement. two or more people just want to have fun before a mission or relieve stress afterwards... Party in the Captain's cabin.

you know that Kelly was written by a bunch of programers after work, right?  and if those folks didn't put in extra (possibly even unpayed) time, she woudln't have been the in a state she was in?

according to one of the writers, there WERE supposed to have been light romances in ME2, with Ken and Gabby being potential Li's for them, but they just didn't have the time to implement them fully.  that we have our little interactions with them, as well as dinner with Kelly (who btw, as far as I know doesn't come up to shepard's room to dance, unless that shepard is NOT in a ME2 relationship at that time in adition to have flirted with her) is a testament to some of the people's dedication.

as for dictating shepard?  we have a lot of leeway of how to customize our Shepards, but there are still a lot of limitations.  there have to be in order to allow for story progression.  Shepard cannot be a complete blank slate. you can fill in some of the blanks in your headcanon, but when I say that Shepard is not Geralt, what I mean is that Mass Effect is not populated by magical creatures who all crave to be on his little collection of pictures with no strings attached. not even consort, or Kelly.  the most you can do with current LI's is serial monogamy.  and unfortunately its probably too much to hope for, for all that breaking of hearts to be dealt with in ME3.

Considering none of the ME2 love interests like to share... I don't see it happening.

This. You'd need to do some recruiting to get a proper threesome underway.

[Skirata129]

I think many players would be absolutely fine with a few extra missions in order to have a threesome. just a sneaking suspicion.

and that kind of proves they can be implemented well with relatively little effort. Kelly is one of the more popular characters in the game.

Then sadly toss me into the group says doesn´t matter LoL .
Cause that is a bit cheapening of the main characters , nah I would prefer a complex way of getting the Trio .
Like a jigsaw puzzle you need to have done everything correct , woe when you need to woe , harsh when you need to be harsh ... or else it totally cheapens the experience other then youtube movies LMAO 
Has nothing to do with the game
