How can you guys get so emotional over a character you barely talked to?

Because we spent 12 hours following her on twitter as the Reapers invaded.


So this.  After spending all day rooting for her, to see her go was crushing and has raised my will to fight the reapers by so much.

I have to say I loved that Twitter feed. It has me even more excited for ME3…although how I will manage to wait until Friday I don't know.

Emily Wong, I WILL AVANGE YOU!!!

This was intense. I felt a connection to Emily Wong, just a perky report who wanted to do good and thus was really likable in how in her own small way she wanted to better the galaxy. She didn't want to blow the Collectors or defeat Saren, she just wanted to run stories exposing crime figures to the public eye and prove that the Citadel air control was edging close to disaster. Small little things we see people try to do everyday in order to build a better world. And then those Reaper ****bags killed her. My name is Commander Shepard, you killed Emily Wong, prepare to die.

"RAMMING SPEED."

The battlecry of Vanguards everywhere.


Wong was always awesome but, she's been a Vanguard all along?! It all makes sense now...

Weskerr: You mean in an all day event that had me refreshing twitter every five minutes, desperate for updates, instead of a forty five second cameo in the game? You might be the only one.


This I can't stand Twitter... but this had me on it all damn day on the tip of my toes... Emily :crying:

That was... horribly contrite and awful... I've never said anything bad about the game so far, heck, I didn't even mind all the kids, but this is just B movie material. Reporter goes suicidal Rambo on a Reaper?!?!

What else would she do?  She was mortally wounded and would've died anyway, or worse and turned into a husk.  Her act, as insignificant as it was, probably registered as barely enough of a distraction to save someone's life in order for them to escape.

What would you have done in her situation?  Would you wait to bleed out, wait for the space gods to kill or harvest you, or would you try to use what little life you have left to save another?


also this. I would have done the same thing. If you're going to die, go out like a mofo. That's Mace Windu's motto.

Some one tell me if I misread the tweets, but aren't Emily Wong's QEC lines one of the very few (if not the only) lines of communication with Earth?  If so her last act was anything but insignificant.

She just told the entire galaxy that humanity is alive and fighting, and will never surrender to the Reapers.  She died hero and an inspiration.

Exactly, and at that point she couldn't escape - the drone ships were closing in on her. So she had either the choice of dying in terror or dying while defiant and she chose the latter.

I have to say, Emily is a moron. Her sacrifice was worthless.

...The goal isn't surviving anymore... this... this is a contest of eradication... I don't care about the logic behind it, I don't care about if ME3 is a mass betrayal of what has come before it, I don't care if my choices are written around anymore


The only thing i want... The only thing i need is every last Reaper burning or broken
Every husk riddled with bullets or pounded into powder
Every Collector or abomination that the reapers ever made... exterminated

cause they have just made the most fatal mistake of them all



They've pissed me off!

Realistically? Pee my pants, same as you and 99% of non combatants. But that's not the point. This is just

...

wow. 
Her dying while risking her life on the job is valiant but, all that ramming stuff is just jumping the shark. Female Space Larry King charges a Reaper as a last act of defiance ... 
I know hating everything Bioware seems 'en vogue' these days, and I've liked pretty much everything I've heard about the game so far at the danger of being considered a 32 year old 'fanboy'... This is just laughable... literally. Thankfully, it's just a Twitter fluff thing... I doubt they'd pull anything like that in the game.
Fantastic avatar, BTW, reminds me of someone but I can't put my finger on it...

What part of "No ME3 Spoilers allowed" did you not understand?

Many of us AVOIDED the Twitter feeds and all other information about the game to not know things like that.


Its just a story they put together for marketing. Not spoilers from in game

Jeez........my bad! Talking about a brain cramp. I liked Emily. Now I'm going to have to punch Khalisah twice as hard. ;)
