I'm putting what little energy I have into posting in as many threads as I can, in the hopes people will click on my facebook link. :)

Here, I'll share my Xmas present with you.

So I was sitting in my room feeling sad when all of a sudden I had an epiphany.

Why would they go through the trouble of giving you a choice of having Kirrahe take Thane's place in the Kai Leng fight if Thane was going to end up dying either way from his disease?? If BioWare decided to kill him off the game, why not just have Thane be the only one to be able to stop Leng? Why spend the time to do that???

So my epiphany (I like using that word:P) was, maybe you can replace Thane in the citadel because...Thane will be available as an optional squad mate or be able to live through a DLC or something!!! Life Support is unoccupied, unchanged, and ready with his table and cup. Why leave it as it was for no purpose??

Also maybe that's why they re-used the LotSB letter from Thane since they have more new things on the way for Thane lovers. Maybe also the reason why there is a lack of dialogue from your other squad members about Thane and his death.

Therefore, that's why that have faith tweet from Mass Effect. Maybe there is a cure on the way!

I don't know if this has been discussed already, and if it has I apologize. I just want to have faith and keep some hope alive for our Thane! But if it's all just stuff I made up and it's not true, then at least I got some peace of mind for a while eventhough I'll get sad again.


Edit: spelling and added another sentence

I would love to be optimistic, but BW has troll/teased us so many times. but I would like your theory to be true. I really would.

Also, I only spell and grammar check trolls.

That's incredibly optimistic.  If that was the case, why would Weekes talk about screwing up with Thane?  Why would they make this an add-on instead of just putting it in the game?  That's downright mean on so many levels.

As for Kirrahe, they probably wanted another character as a buffer so you can still gain war assets without Thane surviving ME2.

What about the other ME2 squaddies and love interests that got shafted?  How would that be fair to them?

The only way that would be fair is if they ALL got DLC, which is stretching far beyond what I can believe.

I'm hoping the entire content of ME3 was an indoctrination dream. Yep, there it is. Please? I will beg.

Oh my, now you got me thinking :pinched: When I read it, it makes sense, and it would be awesome if it were true. Cruel of BW to lead us on like that, but it would still be awesome.

But as many of us here, I don't dare to hope...:(

If we then get the REAL ME3 game for free that would work for me :lol:

I agree, I want to be hopeful but I really really don't want to be disappointed again.

I don't know what to make of P.Weekes comment, he's hardly going to be able to reveal any DLC plans but is commenting on that scene as is.  It is possible that less care was taken because there is going to be more to Thane's story.  However, even if more is planned there should still have been some acknowledgement of his death, so it is still a dropped ball.

I think that Kirrahe is alive because in the default new game Thane isn't.  But in all ME2 imports without ME1 Kirrahe is dead by default I think so no Thane, mission failed. Curing Thane doesn't have to remove him from the Kai Leng fight, he could just survive his injuries... recuperate... in Life Support ... or the attic :wub:.

It wouldn't be fair to the other ME2 squaddies but if we had a substantial ME2 dlc, all could be included and most would buy... but that still leads to the problem of Jacob, they'd need to make that an AU scenario which would be kind of weird.  Whenever I think of what the reasoning behind Jacobs fate (and Thane's) I just can't get my head round it, but I always underestimate thoughtlessness and cruelty.  Every time I see a post  that says something like "well **** is okay and I got all I wanted so I don't care" I despair, I want everyone to have some joy in ME3, why are some so selfish.

Mike Gamble said we would play ME3 'forever' when we knew what they had planned.  I take that with a bucket of salt but if what he said is accurate, the only way it would be accurate for me would be a DLC that enabled Thane to live beyond the credits... If I get that, he's right, I'll hop right back up on the bandwagon and replay... alot.

I know it's far fetched but one can only hope.

The thing is that Thane is the only ME2 squad member that didn't have some type of mission in ME3. Maybe it's possible to have a DLC for a Thane mission. That seems more possible.

But if there's no hope then why fight for a better Thane romance? That's why I stay optimistic. If nothing comes out of it then oh well.

No. It made good sense to me. I just hope they fix what's been done to all Thane lovers.

I'm thinking maybe more like an expansion, not DLC.  DLC wouldn't be big enough?  More like Awakenings for DA - another 15ish hours.  This way you could change the endings, add some more content AND missions.  Hope!!:whistle:

I was thinking about Thane last night (again!), and it still doesn't sit with me when he says "what are you doing here Shepard"?  Um...you sent me a message.  And that's true for all Sheps.  So it's such a disconnect for him to ask!  :blink:

It should have been that he assumed you got his email, and THEN you had the option to say something about Kaidan/Ash, OR you could grab him, haul him off to the nearest room and have your way with him.:wub:

That should stop all the questions.  I HATE that he seems to think he's not "worthy" enough for you to be there for him.  WTF??

I'm stunned. Flabbergasted, in fact. Until I saw this thread, I had assumed that there'd be much more to the interactions with and after Thane if your Shepard had romanced him. What were Bioware thinking? I mean, I thought his death was both heartbreaking and incredibly appropriate, one of the "best" moments in the game... But to really not have it make a huge impact on Shepard? Really?

And I'm not sure if your Shep romanced him, but there are almost no different lines for a romanced Thane.  It all just seemed so poorly written and rushed.  <_<

Garrus stood at the memorial wall on the Normandy after Thane died and asked me about ASHLEY!!  WTF?

Sorry for not being clear. I had romanced Kaidan in ME1 and stayed faithful until we were reunited in ME3. If he hadn't been a factor, though, I probably would have romanced Thane. Garrus feels too much like a bro, and I reloaded after my Shepard sounded like she was in heat talking to Jacob so that never happened. Thane was spiritual, sensitive, complex and badass. It was diffficult not to fall for him, but they stayed friends.

Anyway, after he died, my Shep went into his room in life support and I left her there for five minutes, just standing and thinking. If the crouch command was still in the game, I would have had her kneel down. Self-created "cutscene", baby. Only way I could adequately reflect her loss. And she didn't even romance him. I cannot imagine how those who did would have felt.

(hopefully linking right) I guess, my desperation makes me think that maybe something more may be planned. Or rather, that hope isn't dead for Thane?


Bioware.  WTF.  Stop being evil.  My heart is already broken enough.


 Why must they continuously play with our emotions! :crying:

After the hospital scene I reloaded my save and used the save editor so that Thane died at the end of ME2. I figured dying on the Collector Base was a more respectful end for a romanced Thane, than the garbage treatment he got in ME3. Boning down in the middle of a hospital ward? Really? It didn’t even seem like we were talking to the same person.
At least if you import a dead Thane you can tell Liara you miss him after the second dream, compared to the nothing you get to say to nobody otherwise.
After all the hoopla about mistreating the VS in ME2 I didn’t think Bioware would turn around and do the exact same thing in ME3 to the ME2 romances.
I’m not interested in pursuing the other romances as I know I’ll just compare the content and wonder why Thane got shafted so bad.
Therefore, my femshep will be forever alone and sad. I’m still not exactly sure what all went down at the end, but that’s a whole other topic.
I miss Thane so.
Why you so mean Bioware? Why??

Your theory does make good sense and I'm glad you posted that tweet. :)

My worry is that BW do not seem to have been sensible with regards to Thane and seem not to care/realise that Thane's treatment can damage or even (in my case) ruin the enjoyment of the game.  However, if they have something awesome planned for Thane I've nothing to complain about except maybe their sick sense of humour.  
You have given me a glimmer of hope, but I'm scared of hope :crying:

Especially because they always reply in the same cryptic manner, AND they make sure they reply to people who praise the game - I've sent three tweets to them with NO reply of any kind, ever.

I had an entire conversation about what I saw was wrong and added @mass effect to the tweets, not one response. I just don't get it.

I know it's true! When you look down the list at their replies, it's only to people who loved everything about the game and the ending. Then every now and then they respond to the, we want more thane tweets. Maybe they just like to toy with us about that.
