When I saw the option to kick her off the ship, I thought she was going to be busy-bodying around the ship and annoying the crew with unfair questions and such like, to prompt me to do so. But no, she just stood in her hidey hole. It has been asked whether you can sleep with her, then kick her off the ship? That'd be sweeeeet. And just. lol

She gives you war assests after every interview so she isn't "Useless" also she is a reporter, and inbeded reporter, you know like they did with the last 2 wars. Basicly that.

My question to all you about "voice acting" is that what where you explecting her to do some shakspear like acting or what?? She was being natural in a reporter nature. I know it may have been a long time sense any of you have watched TV more or less the News but if anything she nails the whole Reporter tone quite well.

Edit: Emaly Wong just seemed too "bubbly" to me, and would make a really bad "War" reporter, (today Thessia was invaded *smiles*, "Punching bag reporter" is really Jadded. With Adlers was more or less neutrual. Hated what was going on at time but kept a profftional tone.

Honestly? Yes I was. It's a bioware game. Voice Acting is part of the bread and butter that makes a Bioware game. And unless you watch public broadcasting, her voice is kinda monotone and she sounds rushed. She does do some parts better than others, and I like listening to her interactions with Traynor occaisnally. It just doesn't make sense to me why Bioware would even bother using her when they have talented people who work for them, are better qualified, and best of all won't be seen as a shameless attempt to influence IGN (Which is kinda funny in itself, I mean really? You couldn't pick someone better to try to schmooze?). Also she's in Zaeeds room. I'd rather have Zaeed be my imbedded reporter.

Nah, Jacob still holds that honour.

Jacob offers a personal mission, good leadership for the suicide-mission and help in combat.
What offers Diana?

My Shep has Allers on board purely for the PR he knows he needs to help get everyone on his side....would have much prefered Wong...even Jilani would have been better than Allers....Allers VA is very obviously not a VA and her personality is very cardboard.

I still don't understand how you get anything more than 5 pts for letting her breathe your air.

She promotes good PR for your campaign against the Reapers. Tells the people good news about the fight and such. There is a valid role for a character there very poorly executed. Also as I stated before. She looks like a potatoe.

It's a travesty that they gave her Zaeed's old room.

And spent more time on her face than Tali's.

Diana Allers? That Jersey **** look-alike? Never bothered to get her to Normandy for fear that she would hump Joker and crash the ship.

Her face shape/head shape makes me cringe...it just looks really odd...also her cue card VA is bad but not horrible...

can we sleep with her and then kick her off? That would be perfect.

Wrong.
Diana Allers AND Kelly Chambers were the most useless AND annoying characters ever in any game. :D


Agreed, Diana is beyond pointless, that head scares me and I have no idea who this Chobit person is  Kelly was kinda pointless but at least had some kind of use for the player.  Sam is a huge improvement in every way IMHO.

Aye, it's a shame that Emily Wong had to die... would have rather had her on my board if I needed a reporter


She did?  I wondered why she didn't show up in ME3


http://twitter.com/#!/AllianceNewsNet - Read from the bottom up, this affected me far more than the death of that kid with his weirdly long arms

Oh and Allers was pretty useless

i bet hiring her wasted sooo much production money that could have been used for improving this like the roles the ME2 character or even the endings.. idk. All i know is she was a dumb mistake.

The way the voice actor delivers her lines reminds me of Keanu Reeves. They can both bore you.

I think the voice actress licked a psp once.

although.... Yes she doesn't serve a great deal of purpose but once I get off Earth I lose touch with how the war is going on with the human civilians populations. She could have been a great way to keep the civilian cost of the war in mind with her contacts.

A missed opportunity. And Dat Face <shudders>

Ok Di, your on in 3...2...1

Hello I'm Diana Allers. And these are the fattest cheeks on the citadel!

Must admit, Diana Allers really doesn't contribute anything. I'd prefer Khalisah al-Jilani over her in more than one way, especially since you finally can convince her to do nice (or at least helpful) interviews.
Lets say, with Allers BW didn't do us a favor. She's neither useful (except very few bonus points) nor that attractive. Her romance is more a fling than anything else - heck with it, she's doing it with Shepard 'cause it's THE SHEPARD! ;)


Emily Wong, of course, is the best choice. Not needed for a romance, but as a good reporter.

Kinda.

Pretty much.

I don't even know why she's in the game when you have the option to kick her out. Most of us did just that! There is no point in introducing characters in what is the FINAL game when you already have pre-established characters that long time fans already know! Plus - Jessica Chobot can't act for ****. <_<

That and introducing multiplayer. If multiplayer wasn't on the disc i bet there would've been a ton more space for romance dialog and less bugs.

Multiplayer really should've gotten its own disc.

She's a joke. So out of place it's ridiculous.

She was immersion breaking in my opinion, real-life people/celebs in my game don't go together well.
