About Vega, he will call you a nickname and act very nice towards femshep, but that seems to be it. It seems to be more of a close friendship type thing.
Someone hold me.

If you're talking about the guy from the spoiler group, he hasn't exactly had the game very long. No one has.
Still....*puts comforting hand on shoulder*
Edit: And the same thing could have been said about Garrus in ME2 before Shepard asked about how turians 'prepare for high-risk missions'. Just for perspective.

I come bearing art; I've been hyped up for ME3 all week, and so I decided to go on a art flurry. Not sure who to draw next~
D'aww it looks adorable!

GAH, that is SO cute! Art always makes me feel better. Fandom will always be around, right? No matter what happens! And I have some to share! In the Mass Effect comm on LJ for secret Santa, my Santa drew my Shepard and James. I don't think I ever posted it here.
That picture is adorable as well!
This fandom will always be around for sure, no matter what happens!
From what I know James Vega has an awesome personality. If anything he is the ultimate bro, so I will enjoy bringing him along!
Also just saw this tweet from Casey Hudson about Vega!

@CaseyDHudson- RT “@RemiosR: who's character has the best dialogue just walking around in ME3?” Love them all but Vega is a blast - great banter!

Not very far so there's some hope but still...*sniffles*
@catharsisboo: Thanks
@CastonFolarus : True enough.

I was looking at that thread, though he hasn't exactly gotten very far in the game or has perused him has he?
But I think we could all use a hug! This week has been an roller coaster for us.
*hugs all around*

I have so many feelings....
I need to Bro-hug it out...

I refuse to give up hope, though!
We will overcome, brothers and sisters! For the love of Jimmy Vega <3

He's the first companion you get along with the VS. He's attractive and has an awesome personality. He has a vested interest in Shepard. He's voiced by FPJ. He was designed with the female player base in mind. There are two new female LIs and just one male (unless James is an LI).
So unless they wrote him to dangle in front of our faces, I don't get it.

I don't get it either. It would leave a straight Femshep with no one if they don't have Kaidan alive..??
I cannot process that.

Exactly that! If a single straight FemShep left Kaidan on Virmire and didn't romance anyone in ME2, she... doesn't have anyone to romance if James isn't an option, lmao. What even?Jilinna wrote...

It just doesn't make sense to me.
Exactly; I don't see the point in it either. The Shepard I specifically made for him actually did kill off Kaidan in ME1; so even if she had a second chance to romance Kaidan in 3 he wouldn't be around to do so.
I don't see why they wouldn't make Vega an LI, especially with the amount of time and character developement they seemed to put into him.

Exactly! It is why I still have a thread of hope that James Vega will be a LI. A straight MaleShep, even if all his potential LI's are dead he has Diana and Liara to crawl to, and a staight femshep would have no one? Unless she decides she is going to romance one of the females instead? It doesn't add up to me.
At the very least if Femshep doesn't get Vega I will be less upset if she gets someone. If she doesn't get any new male LI I will be upset.

Exactly! My Femshep killed Kaidan on Virmire for RP purposes. As It made sense for the character. Then in ME2 my Shepard was still in mourning because of Kaidan because she was starting to develop feelings for him in ME1 but because he was with the salarians she felt saving the person guarding the bomb was the most logical choice and she wasn't going to risk the mission because of her feelings.
So now my Shepard will be forever alone unless she romances one of the female options? *sigh*

It's funny, 'cause even though I'm a huge Kaidan fan, I'd actually save Ashley if I had to choose. She's got a family back home who's relying on her. Kaidan doesn't.

I don't get why they don't just release who is and who isn't. It's not like this is some huge plot spoiler. All it takes is a post to put us out of our misery. Jeez.

I agree. At this point, I want to know so I can just deal with the disappointment (which I guess is likely based on new sucky news? Everyone seems sad again) and move on.
Also, I guess I don't see much point in the secrecy anymore with the space copies being in the picture anyway.

Sources:
1. SA guy, who proved he was playing Mass Effect 3 by posting screenshots, said Vega doesn't care to get involved in the romance stuff.
2. Klace said Vega wasn't an LI. Though, Chris Priestley said that he was lying about some of what he said. Most people think it's the Kaidan and MShep conversation, though, not Vega.
3. The demo files do not have Vega as a romance.
4. Someone with a space edition copy said that Vega isn't romanceable.
5.
The older leak script had an option to tell Kelly you're with Vega.
However, this was removed in the newer script. In the newer script, the
Vega "romance" is an admittance of feelings at the end of the game if you press Vega about it.
(I'm guessing the order, but clear there's something between them)
V: It's been an honor serving with you, Shepard.
S: I think we both know it's been more than that.
V: Yeah... I just.
S: You're a good man and a terrific soldier.
Whatever happens... I'm glad I got to know you, James.
V: That means a lot to me. You mean a lot to me.
So, what does this mean? Presumably you can flirt with Vega beforehand, but there's no actual romance during the core of the game. At the end, you can get James to admit that he has feelings for Shepard.
Who knows if they kiss, hug, etc after that. Possibly they don't do anything except exchange some emotional words.
As for making women blush and James being created with female players in mind - I suspect that there's an exchange of flirting between female Shepard (probably male Shepard too, but female Shepard for sure) and Vega, but no actual romance/relationship until the end final battle conversation as James wants to keep things focused on the mission.
