Miranda: Oh, Ms. Lawson. You are one bodacious woman. That's the first thing I noticed when I saw her. And of course all the close-ups of her butt. But I never particularly cared for Miranda that much. I saw her as a goodie two shoes, that always did what the Illusive man wanted. That is until I took her to the end of the suicide mission and she quit from Cerberus (winning). After that I realized how much she really did devote to the mission and how loyal she was to me. Also, who can resist that romance scene in the engine room?
Jacob: The one thing I did not like about Mass Effect 2 was Jacob. What is special about him? Nothing. he's your typical Alliance soldier. Cookie-cutter personality, didn't really say much, or give anything to the story. He was just a filler character. I tried having a romance with him, but I couldn't stand how uninteresting he was. Plus, he got way too serious way too fast.
Mordin: When I first played ME2, Mordin was extremely annoying to me. The super-fast talking, the lack of powers, and just thinks along those lines. He was always the last loyalty mission I did, and never bothered to talk to him in the lab. He was basically the one person you leave in time-out and don't even notice they're gone. However, after many play through's, he has really grown on me as a character Behind his scientific exterior is a rather humorous "man", and maybe it was the moment he sang Gilbert & Sullivan that really converted me. Not to mention his incineration blast, which came in handy at the best times. It's safe to say in the beginning, he was ignored, but now he's the one person I have to take with me to the end of the suicide mission.
Garrus: Oh Garrus. <3 He's such a sweetheart and he never fails to crack me up. Even though he would always make me wait for his calibrations, I loved him in the beginning of the game. He was that class clown that everyoe had a crush on. But as time went on, I started getting more attached to the game, so to speak, and I really wanted something serious for Shephard. And although Garrus is a great friend and I wouldn't mind having some fun time of my own with him, he's not exactly the relationship I'm looking for. But hey, at least he kicks ass.
Jack: Hm, Jack is tough for me because I don't know whether to be annoyed with her or to cuddle with her. In my first twp playthroughs, I didn't really care for her. I thought she was just a bitter **** who needed to move on. But then, after playing with male Shepard and seeing her cry in my cabin, it really struck a chord. Sure, with female Shepard, you can only go as far as hearing her saying I don't play girl's team (surprisingly), but still. You can see that there's somethign special to her. As far as combat, her shockwave comes in handy when fighting husks, especially in the Reaper IFF mission. It's just like bowling.
Grunt: He was along the same lines as Mordin to me in the beginning. I would always go to Tuchanka last because it was like watching paint dry. I didn't see the big deal about a krogan on my team. He's like a idiot football player who just wants to crush cans on his head all the time. But somehow, he grew on me too. Not to the point of Mordin, but I like him at least a little bit better now. He can never replace Wrex though. That's my main krogan right there.
Samara: First thing I noticed about her: boobs, of course. I think that's what everyone notices at first. I was so mesmerized by those in the first few playthroughs that I didn't care about anything else she said. She could've been saying how she wants to eat my brains, and I still would been like <3. But as I played a few more times, I realized she's kind of just stagnant. There's that moment in her "romance" that you're about to kiss, and you think that this is it. That she's going to open up and wow me. But alas, she rejects you and goes to the crew quarters only to say "please" the whole time. What's up with that? But I have to admit, her loyalty mission is my favorite. If Morinth didn't kill me when I tried to get with her, I might've have kept her. But I would rather be rejected than dead.
Thane
: Okay, let's set one thig straight, I'm a Kaidan girl through and through, but I had to try really hard to stay loyal when Thae was on my ship. When I first played, I got to know him, and I thought he was pretty cool, but I failed his loyalty mission, so I didn't really get to talk to him. Then I took a biref hiatus from Mass Effect for school and such. When I came back and actually beat his loyalty mission, I fell in love. Maybe it was the way he said siha, or his calm demeanor. Maybe it was just the way he talked about me or the way he cried in my cabin before the suicide mission. But I really loved Thane. And it's so sad to me that he might not be in Mass Effect 3 because of his illness. I just hope that I made the right decision sticking with Kaidan because if not, I'll play the whole damn game again just to be with Thane.Tali: I know I'm about to get attacked by all of those people who love Tali, but I'm ot a fan. I don't know why.In the first game, she really wasn't that important after the first few missions on the citidel. And even in Mass Effect 2, her dossier was all about the geth, and her loyalty mission was also all about the geth. I just don't get a sense for who she is. And then it irks me that she can flirt with female Shephard but you can't have the romance with her. I guess she's just not my cup of tea, and never will be.
Legion: Last but not least, one of my favorite's, Legion. I used to not really care for him as I didn't for a lot of the characters. But that definitely changed. In the beginning, he was just a robot to me. But I find him rather comical now, and even sweet. For instance, when he used the N7 armor to fix the hole and he awkwardly said no data or the easter egg that makes him do the robot during idle time.Whatver it is, he's definitrely one of the most unique squad members in the Mass Effect series so far. I don't think Bioware can top having a geth on the team.
EDI: Even though she's not a team member, she deserves a review in my opinion. She. Kicks. Ass. It's as simple as that. I liked her from the very beginning. Even on my strictly renegade playthrough, I felt so bad telling her that she was equipment, not crew after the collectors attacked the Normandy. And watching the relationship between her and Joker develop was touching and a nice touch of comic relief. Even though she is just a computer program, she gets an A+ in my book.
That's all for my thoughts on characters. Sorry for makig it so long! So what do you think?
Retour en haut
...also she never starts to kiss, it's Shep who pushes it....<_<
....Cerberus is an organization well known for it's heartless cruelty and abuse....Jack and Overlord two such examples in ME2....the Akuze Thresher Maws and Toombs in ME1 just for a start....Paul Grayson and Gillian in the books...list goes on....Miranda is a commited employed top rank in this organization, defending their ideals and stance...A Goodie-Two-Shoes is a person with an over top morality code, usually to the point of detriment to themselves and those around them, makes paragon Shep look evil beside their over the top morality codes....This is not Miranda, she condones by association and words many of Cerberus's operations, she is no Goodie-Two-Shoes...30 odd years ago when I was in primary school, I would have been classed as a Goodie-Two-Shoes, Miranda and I have NOTHING remotely in common.
