@ Random Citizen - I do not assume that everyone SHOULD be monogamous, however, in case of ME LI's we've met so far are not interested in sharing (and I HAVE mentioned possible exception of Kelly and Liara earlier, multiple times no less - partly due to that scene you get with Liara and Ash/Kaidan in which they unequivocally state that they will NOT share, to the point where they will feel better NOT in a relationship at all as opposed to sharing)
its not even a matter of "they never said otherwise, so its possible to expand their portrayal" becasue they did. have you noticed all the hoopla about Ashley's outfit. OUTFIT. we're not even talking dialogue or anything, just outfit. and a lot of the criticism is due to something she specifically said, about preferring good hard armor and a big gun. Changing character's outlook on relationship and monogamy is much MUCH bigger then an outfit. and harder to justify, unless you go with "oh to hell with what they were, we'll just rewrite the characters the way we see fit" every time Bioware tries that? oh the backlash, my god the backlash.
either way - its far too late to request anything like that for ME3 and good thing, that. they messed with existing characters enough as it is.
and your Shepards are going to have to make a choice.
Lets not dig ourselves into trenches. I believe it is possibly to expand the portayal in such a way IF it is handled well relative to the character in question. In a way that keeps its integrity and makes it belivable.
Ash for example would need to change more then most and of course this means it would take the A LOT work and skill to pull of. Given most choices and outcomes it should of course be impossibly for her to change her view on things.
When it comes to these things being part of ME3, I now there was never much hope. Just a fools hope.
(BTW of course people should wear approriate armour and suits for the missions. Aromur with ****** is bad enough
