M. Hanky, I know how i should feel about this. When I recruited Thane I already knew that ME universe is a place, where people can be raised from dead and Mordin just cured a serious plague that was killing lots of people. So no, I didn't take his illness seriously, because i believed he will be cured. Yes, I believed it right from the start, when he told me he was dying. It's what should happen in a world where technology is so advanced, and no lame excuse will make me think otherwise.

Additionaly, I think that I should expect equal treatment when it comes to the game content, because I am a paying customer just like Liaramancers, Garrusmancers and so on.

I'm not glad that Thane made it to ME3, because it's obvious that he should appear in the game. I would be glad if he got cure he and other drell deserved.

Wow, big surprise, another person telling me how I should feel. How original...

I shouldn't be surprised to see something like this...

to those who romanced Thane, you knew what you were getting into. One of the first things Thane tells you is that he is dying, that he doesn't have much time left. you knew any romance you have with him wouldn't last very long, you shouldn't be surprised that he died.

EDIT: you should feel glad that he survived into ME3 to begin with, not to mention the fact that he went out in blaze of glory fighting Kai Leng

Just like I "knew what I was getting into" in ME3, when Mordin can wip up a Genophage cure in a timeframe shorter than he explicitly said himself.

Or, that the geth can Terraform Rannoch, so the Quarians can take off their helmets without repurcussion, when it was stated that re-adapting the Quarians would take significantly longer.

Or, that a "Starchild" would explain the Reapers origins and ask me to "pick a color" for the sake of the Galaxy.

And just like the abovementioned I also "knew" they'd completely throw any character development Thane had in ME2 out of a proverbial window in ME3. Yes I totally saw all of that coming! /sarcasm

Fact is, Thane's fate wasn't set in stone from the beginning. Not to mention that Bioware's previous history with DA and ME was that it builds so much of the story on player choice. 

To have something like Thane's fate out of the players hands is imo absurd when the story is built on the premise of player choice. 

Also add the subtle hints for a cure/treatment. In that vein, holding hopes for curing/treating Thane isn't farfetched imo.

@Ren - don't worry sweetie. No need to respond to a post like that. Just listen to the crickets. Let's see if I can find another nice Thane picture....consider it a "High Colonic" for the brain.

Oh I will at least make sure he/ she gets exposed as the hypocrit he/she/it is. :innocent:

Hehehe......fair enough.

My old man came back from the doctor's over an hour ago. His liver is not getting any better. He's on the phone calling his parents and stuff to see if they can be tested for compatibility. Either he gets a transplant or dies a lot sooner than I imagined.

Now, since this thread seems to be the place for telling others how they should feel... How should I feel about this?

Happy, sad, hopeful, mournful, glad, angry...

In all seriousness, I don't need anyone saying, "I'm sorry" to me. I'd rather just hold on to my delusions now that one of his many family members match and they are healthy enough to do it.

ALL OF THIS.

And let's see - it's a thread called "Protesting the Poor Treatment of Thane Krios' Romance" - what did you think was going on in here?  Sunshine and bunnies?  Of course it's about his pathetic treatment, horrible character assassination and his impending death thanks to a crappy fight scene with Nightwing - err, Kai Leng.  RIGHT.

Hopeful, but feel how you feel.  I don't think there is a "right way" to feel about this.  Yes, someone will be a match - do you have a donor system that can match him across the country?  Anyone on here a match?  I'm serious.

I hate to say this but I made a joke to him and he just scowled at me.

All I said is, "You use to hate that your father humped everything in sight but look at it as a positive now, you have so many half brothers and sisters. They all love you and will try to help you. You should thank your father for being a pig."

I think it was the timing. Yes, they have a donor system here. Luckily for him, he can get by with a live donor. I keep telling myself that people do this all the time. It works, I read the papers he got sent home with. Something about the percentage of him getting a match from his own family is greater and normally results in better outcomes when it comes to rejections, etc. Who knows, too wordy for me.

[coldwetn0se]

@utaker - Sending good thoughts and space magic to you and your husband. In all seriousness, I wish you both the best.

[Emeraldfern]

@utaker

I sincerely wish the best for you both.

*Crosses every single finger and toe that can be crossed*

[mnomaha]

@utaker...we love you dearly (actually I rather love him as well) so I'm also sending good thoughts your way.

[giftfish]

@utaker -- Sunshine, bunnies, and green bananas heading your way....

Why the surprise ? You have seen similar stuff or worse on the Ashley LI thread you frequent.

What blaze of glory ? Not a single NPC mentions him. Not even Bayley, who had the job to save the ambassador. Not Garus, Tali, Kasumi, Grunt.. who were squad mates with him. No one. Where is the glory ?

PS: Totally not hypocrital that you made a thread for Joker LI content.. Let me guess, you didn't notice Joker has brittle bones and can't really do anything romantic without getting hurt.

Because if you did notice then... H Y P O C R I S Y is rank around here

total joke on the joker li dlc, because people are whining about making a li for just about everyone else.

Hear hear!

I'm sure your dad will appreciate it if you stay hopeful, even if you have to fake it a bit.

My heart and prayers are with you 

[M. Hanky]

wow guys, you kinda need to mature a little. people die, especially when the reapers invade. people you care about die too. don't get me wrong, I thought it sucked when Thane died too, but that kinda stuff happens. ME3 would be horrible if NO ONE died, just way too unrealistic.

If you have had the decency of reading the posts right above yours, utaker's father is gravely ill, and we could use a troll free thread to support her.

Go away and don't you dare come back today with your childish insults. I mean it.

passionate much?

a) just a game
actually did read quite a few of the other posts, sorry to hear about someone's father being ill, hope for the best, but I usually try to keep things more or less on topic.
c) not trying to be a troll, honestly. I just think it's a little silly that so many people get so fired up because ME3 didn't have everyone make it through. people die. I would have been extremely dissapointed with the writers if they didn't kill off anyone I cared about.
d) not allowed to express another viewpoint on this thread? wow, how awfully oppressive!
e) or what?

my mistake then. Once again, I hope for the best, my prayers are with you. meant no offense by my posts.

regardless, I don't see how this should prevent me from being able to express an opinion that few in this thread agree with. last I checked the forums weren't being managed by North Korea, and disagreeing, and even finding some things silly, doesn't make me a troll, just opinionated.

[Renmiri1]

There is a matter of
a) compassion
Politeness
c) Good taste

You notice I didn't say gtfo, I said leave us alone today. Someone here needs our love and support and your comments here are extremely ill timed.

Now I ask you, is a game worth being an absolute jerk to someone going through a very tough time ? Can you not wait to share your wisdom about death and dying ANOTHER DAY ? Why the rush and the need to be so inhumane ?

Sadly, I don't think there is a distinction between reality and these virtual worlds for these people.

I ask AGAIN, why is ME3 so important to you that you feel the need to s*** on the head of someone with a gravely ill husband ? Are you even human ?

It is just a game. And you are just awful human beings. Bordering on socipathhic behavior.. All for a game.

this.
@Renmiri1 it's not about real life here, and the forums aren't going to heal anyone's real life pain, and you using someone's tragedy to shut up anyone you don't agree with is despicable. done replying to you.

[mnomaha]

*sigh* Since some aren't really reading a whole lot of previous posts, I will add this:

It is not entirely the fact that Thane was killed. It was the fact that we had one whole *crappy* dialogue with him. Added to the fact that he is the ONLY LI where choice was removed. The last straw was the fact that NO ONE remembered him after he had died.

Had this been Liara, VS or Team Dextro the ****storm would have encompassed the internet. We do have a right to our opinions, as do you, but to come in here telling us how we should feel is not welcomed. And yes, you did..."you should be glad..." blah blah blah. No, we are not glad. It was completely substandard writing and a substandard storyline.

Had you come in objectively, I would imagine things would have been handled differently. But you did not.
