I think I read somewhere in a PAX thread it is because of military rules and that James take his military career very seriously. Possible that this was only a excuse for the non romance. At the end it all comes down to limited ressources.

All this "it is against military regs" as explanation is so stupid - no one knows if they will win the fight against the reapers and every day could be the last. I doubt that there would be a military tribunal against Shepard and James after saving the galaxy for having a relationship....


It is, glad I'm not the only one who hates that excuse Image IPB  Was in the military myself, rule bending happens all the time, especially depending on deployment!

@Quilate, thank you so much for all your help! This is the first time I've ever got into all the fan stuff and am a noob at it.

Edit:  Especially thank you for adding a link where the filter is already there ~hug~ Image IPB

@sheena smith, I'm with you, I romanced Kaidan and stayed loyal but really want to have another femshep who gets to romance Vega! They really did miss an opportunity, especially considering how few options femshep has.

It also seems like a bit of a cop-out for them to say that now, seeing as the comic depicted him as someone who fails to take rules seriously at all. When Anderson finds him on Omega, Vega even admits he thinks he's about to be put in the brig for his behaviour.

I wonder if they just ran out of time to develop him fully as an LI, and the whole "Vega takes his miltary career seriously" is Bioware covering their bottoms? It would make sense seeing as he flirts non-stop for the first half of the game, and would explain why it all ends to abruptly and not a little awkwardly.

I'll also throw in my tuppence on the fanfics, I've been engrossed in them the past few days, and they are indeed smutty, which is brilliant. Love it.

I'm a diehard Kaidan/FemShep fan but in an alternate universe I think she'd be drawn to James too, he's exactlyt the kind of person I think she'd go for and I'd definitely do a playthrough minus Kaidan just to see a James romance.

Signed the petition too, IMO they missed an opportunity not doing a Vega/FemShep full romance, I loved all the flirting and would have loved to see it "consummated" lol. I will content myself with those wonderful fanfics in the meantime though.


I was very interested in seeing how they would have continued the Vega-romance. Would there be more serious conversations down the line, or would they keep the tone they have now. Would it be Vega bringing it up again, and trying to woo FemShep. Augh... might just be a romantic twit but after Jacob I could really use someone trying to really romance her socks of, lol. Hoping we will get something on this later on, who knows. The Kaidan-romance was just wonderful for me, so I just want to see what they would do with Vega.

I signed the petition. I was sad he wasn't an option. You could flirt with him and everything. FemShep is his Lola. I always stick him in his second armor with the knight on the shoulder.

I'm with you there, highlighted the sentence that says it all.  Kaidan got much better at the end, lifting femshep up off the couch, hot!  And then the goodbye when you go to leave and he pulls you back in again Image IPB

I think James Vega Romance DLC needs to happen.

Yes, I can see it happening already. I can even see BW charging people $15 USD for it and the entire Earth is still buying it, yes

It's unlikely because there's already an animated movie about him (Mass Effect: Paragon Lost) in the works.

I thought for sure I was going to hate Vega, but having played through ME3 a few times, I genuinely like the guy. He's a solid soldier, and isn't nearly as annoying as Kaidan or the mopey Thane.

At first I thought that too, he really looked like a stereotype meat head but turns out, he wasn't.  Wish we could have gotten more story from him.

Gahhh!! Why oh why! Thanks a bunch!  *sigh*

Feel like I'm posion Ivy when it comes to the guys. I love Jacob with all my little fan-girl hearth, and everyone knows how that went. Really had hopes that Joker and FemShep would finally get somewhere, but no, metal-boobs got in the way. And now this with Vega.

I really shouldn't get attached to any of the guys, good thing that the entire horde of Kaidan-fangirls are enough to outweigh my bad woodo-thing. Missing out because of a darn movie, that is not ok.

Vega, Jacob, Thane, Joker    RIP  you sexy men of ME

Update of the fanfics list !

Under Better Circumstances by Rebel666
"After being retrieved from Omega, Lt James Vega is in charge of protecting the Alliance's most valuable asset... Commander Nevada Shepard. Little does he know that it was just the beginning of their story."

The Wild Card by Aya Renee
"James had spent weeks running from his past. Sure, he didn't exactly have his life planned out, not in so many words, but still nothing prepared him for the moment when the former commander Shepard barged into his life and made away with his lucky deck."

Parallels and Divergences by Hermia S
"Payton Shepard and James Vega are both soldiers. They're both survivors, having lived to see the other side of the worst a tour of duty could offer them. When neither is willing to take a chance, one of them has to be a catalyst for change."

Gilged Cage by TheNexusDragon
"James Vega was assigned to watch over the most valuable person in the galaxy. This is my take on what happens befor the ME3 demo."

Blind by xxsewnlipsxx
"Vega isn't just her LT, but what is he precisely?"

Blackwork by PestoMonkey
"Series of sexy interludes that follows the progression of behind-the-scenes events after James Vega makes good on his flirtations with the Commander."

Just this one by sqbr
"Everybody lives. An alternate sequel to "Acceleration in Parallel", and the game. Replaces "Action and Reaction"." (it is about a Traynor/Femshep romance, but I still like the interaction with Vega :))

Sleepless by Minquette
"Insomnia was the stimulus for a relationship that both Shepard and James knew was already doomed by the ticking clock of galactic annihilation."

The Shepard Vega Chronicles by Abstract1106
"Shepard routinely accomplishes the impossible, but she's haunted by her past. Can Lt. Vega help her understand the possibilities of her second chance at life?"

Someone Like You by Isabella Monroe
"This story is love triangle between Shepard/Alenko/Vega. It will be told from Alenko and Vega's POVs. It will highlight parts of the game, but will not be a retelling of it. Not an AU, but some liberties have been taken for the sake of the plot."

Subtle as a Steamroller by pixelatrix
"Scenes from ME3 as seen through the eyes of Lt. James Vega, with a dose of the romance that should've been there."

A Matter of Trust by koberskaya
"She wanted to spend forever with Kaidan, but she's not sure she can live with him doubting her. James offers his friendship and maybe more as she tries to piece her emotions together."

Chaque bras compte by Grande Asperge (IN FRENCH, and no Femshep/Vega for what I understood)
"Un membre supplémentaire de l'équipe de Shepard : Maddie Young, jeune femme de la Citadelle. Engagée au début de Mass Effect 3, elle aidera le Normandy à combattre les Moissonneurs!"


[ Edit ]

Turbulence by Burning Fate
"Kate Shepard decides to have a drink with James, but weird things keep on happening in the elevator. Could the universe be trying to tell them something? What will happen after they get to the Normandy's bar?"

Stay for the Show by SammyJeanCena
"After their 'dance' Shepard invites James up to her cabin for more dancing."

Only When You're Asleep by Burning Fate
"Kate Shepard ends up waking up earlier than everyone else on the Normandy. WAY earlier. So she decides to pay sleeping James Vega a visit."

Dancing with Vega by girlg33kkris
"Commander Shepard asks James Vega to teach her how to dance, bringing them closer as their relationship grows on the Normandy."

Drunk Shot by Burning Fate
"The crew is on the Citadel to take a break, but what will happen when Kate Shepard goes to visit James down in the Purgatory?"

They all got shafted, and that is a lame excuse to not make a character a LI.  I'm pretty sure I'm not alone in thinking that I would accept a movie/cartoon where Vega did his own thing as long as you get to romance him in ME3, I'd be ok with them never even mentioning Shepard.  I know that all the stories and comics have a canon, I'm ok with that, that's why I like that you can choose while you're playing.  I want Vega!

SilentK, I would like to apologize for liking Kaidan, if I had known that it would have created no choices for the rest of the games I would not have liked him so much Image IPB  Especially now that I'm drooling all over Vega, lol

@ PhoenixDove1 The romance-arc with Kaidan is wonderful, did it with my 1:st FemShep. =) Hmm... should perhaps have had a smiley besides my earlier post, I am glad that at least one of the guys I was really looking forward to romancing made it. Started to feel like if I liked something I was sure to get less of it, lol. I'm just curious, what would they make of a relationship between Vega and FemShep, it would be a different dynamic than from her and Kaidan. It would be interesting.


Until then I'm just going to enjoy bringing him to missions. Loved the fact that when I have Garrus and Liara they are more buddies, but when I brought Vega and Garrus to get the turians on Tuchanka he acted more as a instructor to Vega. A bit more formal. Made me happy! Bring Vega and Garrus all the time, thinking that between FemShep and Garrus Vega will get all the N7-training he will ever need, lol

And here he is, happily crashing his 2:dn shuttle. Brought him to priority Citadel
