Poor Femshep got screwed in ME3. If they were going to end her romances (Thane and Jacob) despite player choice, they could have at least made Vega an option.


Exactly! :(

The boys get more options, straight or otherwise (Kaidan), FemShep only got more girls? :huh:

C'mon, it was almost there, with all the teasing going on! ;)

No. What kind of military is the Systems Alliance running where everyone hooks up?

Definately signed. I love Freddie Prinze Jr.'s voice and James was adorably flirty and amazing. So, not only did Bioware screw up the ending, they screwed up a perfectly plausible L.I.

Signed but please make him available for the guys as well. It was so frustrating watching him flirt non-stop with my male Shepard and not being able to do something about it. I was slammed when I found out he wasn't a LI at all, it seemed like BW did all the set-up but forgot the execution. Pity because he was way more interesting than the other LIs (Sam Traynor was good as well but as a male Shep I obviously had no game there).

Certainly nothing stopping that, as long as my gal gets him too (if she so chooses, naturally)!

Yeah, their follow through reminds me of a lot of my EX boyfriends.

 Wiat...he flirts with male characters too? I know he had some funny banter with Cortez but there was nothing flirtatious about it. Does he give male Shepard compliments?

No idea if he does, but if not it would be easy enough to do so (if you chose the right options, of course).

The fact that James is not a romance option for female Shepard (at least) is very disappointing. I'm not sure the worst aspect of it has really been examined yet. But first, ask yourselves this question:
  • Do you think the writers and designers at Bioware would create a female character, whose model is 100% unique (and attractive), whose voice actor is well known, and who has a relatively interesting/amenable/loyal/flirty personality, and NOT make her available as a love interest for male Shepard?
I'm pretty sure the idea would be wildly unpopular, if ever even considered. It would be as if male Shepard never had the option to romance Jack (personality notwithstanding) in ME2. You can be sure that the backlash from that would have rung on these forums quite loudly.

This is what disappoints me the most - that a decision was made and agreed upon, that fem Shep only be given one heterosexual, human love interest in ME3. That good ol' Kaiden was good enough, if he was even alive. Male Shep though? He can have his pick of 4 lovely human ladies - two of which were available in the previous game as well. Fem Shep doesn't even get Jacob back. In fact, he's already taken!

I'm not expecting exact, categorical equality of love interests here, but the disparity is obvious. And I like Garrus and Liara quite a bit, but they aren't directly related to the point I'm trying to make.

Whether or not you want to see James as a love interest, or if you even care, isn't the point either. The fact is, fem Shep was cheated out of a perfectly viable, human romantic connection, and for what good reason? Maybe they'll release a DLC for it down the road, hell, it might even be bundled with a real ending, but who knows?


P.S. I sympathize with the players wishing for more same sex romance options. I certainly have no problem with it, however I speak here only for the issues with which I am personally familiar.

I agree with everything you wrote.  I just think it's strange that James is the only squad member in ME3 that's not capable of being in a romance (Edi with Joker and the others with Shep), and that's he the only human (outside of DLC Zaeed and Kasumi) that can't be romanced.

Well put!  I admit I believed I would not care much for a new, unknown team mate, but found that I liked his personality well enough to wish he had pursued this teasing beyond teasing. :lol:

On that. I don't have a VegaShep -- yet. But more options would be my friend, and it sure seems like they're setting you up for SOMETHING. Maybe a stolen kiss at your goodbye on Earth and a "If you make it back, we'll talk about this" thing, even if they don't fully develop it. But nooooo, they're dangling the beefcake just out of reach.

Nor do I (have a Vega Shep). ^_^

Well, at least no imported yet (facing issues, narmean?)...


But I felt it was a strange omission and would not mind the slightest to see this DLC.

His dialogue is just so... horribly misleading. The one line that still kills me, is him acting like you ended the chance for a possible relationship by not letting him call you Lola!

"Your ship, your rules... your loss."

Seriously? What am I losing if it's not the chance to be with you, McLargeHuge?

Well, it is somewhat ambigious but I felt quite a few double-entedres  from both Vega and Shep. For instance, Vega asks you, if you are just gonna stand there and watch, when you watch him pokering on the Citadel, Shep tells him that he can call him anything he wants and points out that the bed in his cabin is quite hard.  And t I am sure there is more but this is what comes to mind from the top of my head. He was certainly more flirtatious than Cortez who turned out to be a LI.
