Would you save a platoon of soldier or your LI?

But you gotta admit that the folks here go waaaay beyond "some degree of emotional attachment."laecraft wrote...
I don't
see why this sort of thing should be specific to the BW. Any successful
fiction evokes some degree of emotional attachment to
characters.
Take me, for example: MY SQUADMATES ARE MY PRECIOUS BABIES.
The greater the degree of attachment, the more successful the written character is. A truly masterful writer can rock the world and rule the hearts of humans, which has happened repeatedly. That's the whole point and the essence of artist's power, and this is what every writer should strive for.

I cant seem to find this 'Tinktank' user from the list. Is that his/her full name? Is it spelled correctly?
Judging from how some posters here are flocking to Cthulhu, like animals cuddling with each other when one gets threatened, I can only imagine how impactful and traumatizing this supposedly banned user must have been to their minds.
Help me out here. Please. I'm new and want to fit in.

I don't mean it as an insult (I'm bi, myself), but it's just really funny because he presents himself as incredibly homophobic.
Well obviously, BW's done a pretty good job with that so far, eh?The greater the degree of attachment, the more successful the written character is.

Most love interests wouldn't be too happy over Shepard sacrifices tons of people for them.

I'd do it anyway. They'll forgive me in time for the pre-suicide mission cuddle scene, Ash taught me this in ME1 and it is a lesson held dear to the heart.
For some reason she's less forgiving about having friends she doesn't approve of, but I'm sure I can wear her down in ME3. Who can stay mad at the Shep?

I'm not too surprised he'd want to change the stipulation to make saving his LI easier. It's...disconcerting to say the least.Random Jerkface wrote...

I actually mentioned earlier how Alpha Protocol has something similar as well.Seboist wrote...
Witcher 2 actually has this scenario of "this or saving your LI" and naturally I took the "bros before hoes" option without a moment's hesitation.
And you just spoiled TW2 for me; console version still doesn't come out for a few months. I don't mind too much though, seeing as I often spoil myself of things (ie ME3)

Online diagnosing, eh? We'll gaze on your userpic and know everything about you? You must be quite a pro.

Seeing how lots of people are attached to potential (headcanon, fanon, fan work) rather than actual content, I wouldn't say so. BW is good at beginnings, though.

Don't worry, what I said is still vague enough not to be seen to far in advance.

Err nvm. Back on topic I'm pretty sure I'll go with practical concerns firstly, cos I am not much of a lover boy anyway. Not the kind to regret past decisions so I'll pick the one that's more justifiable incase some irritant wants put me down for not feeling sorry.

Not sure if this is directed at me. Yes I tend to be homophobic, I don't have anything againts gays just that a dick near my bum makes me scream and run it's not how I roll ya know.
Anyway my last post was here was from my own headcanon it just popped into my head as typed.
Sorry if I upset the natural order of things here, I'm half crazy I think.
Now back to the save your LI or the platoon, when I first played ME1 and got to Virmire I sent Kaidan with Captain Kirrahe cause I thought they'd all die and I wanted Ash to live. But then when I had to chose to save Ash or Kaidan I ended up saving Kaidan because I thought I'd save Captain Kirrahe and the STGs, it didn't work I must not have done enough early on to save 'em.
SO it depends who's in this paltoon
1. if the Platoon is just a bunch of random redshirts I let 'em die,
2.If the Platoon has Wrex, Samara, and Kelly Chambers in it the Platoon gets saved I'd be bummed if Liara or Jack died but these members in the platoon make the choice for me.
3.If Undina's in the Platoon the platoon dies no matter who else is in it. Kelly, Samara, and Wrex can die because Udina is in the platoon with 'em
Hats off to BW for making Udina likely the most hated character in the ME unversse
