"You're an investigative reporter. I am a captain of a stealth frigate. These two don't match."

I recruited her but had zero knowledge of her ties to IGN (thus no negative feelings associated with that entity). I feel she was under-developed, especially as a romancable character. More backstory and conversations outside of interviews, please!

Seeing a greater impact would have greatly enhanced her character, for example seeing snippets of her interviews with Shepard on screens in the Citadel.  Perhaps have people react to her in a similar method to the lone  crewmember complaining about her writing off a colony--I can see this as "A new shipment of Thanix Cannons was reluctantly sent to Geth Space as a result of Commandar Shepard's interview with embedded reporter Diana Allers." Stop telling (so much in emails) and more showing (cinematics, ingame or pre-rendered).

The money spent on Diana Allers could have went towards a decent photo of Tali instead of a Stock Photo edit

I would rather have Emily Wong in that roll. No, BioWare had to kiss IGN because journalist are more important than fans.

I'm curious, did she actively pursue a role, or was one simply offered to her?


According to an interview she recently did, Bioware approached her about the possibility of portraying a character, and Diana was developed from there. Source says Bioware had almost full control of development, though the reporter angle was chosen to make it easier for her as a first time Voice Actress. 

I would find the source for you, but honestly I'm too lazy... >_> Go to masseffect.wikia.com's page on Diana Allers, click the link to Jessica Chobot which will take you to her blog and it should be the first link or so there. 

(Yes I know that probably took more effort to type than to just go find the link again, but it's the principle.) 

Honestly I didn't mind her. I liked the spunky attitude - and I liked that I could pretty much ignore her if I wanted to. The only thing that bothers me is that - as someone mentioned - it feels like the role could have been played as well or better by Emily Wong, who we've known since ME1. Salt in the wound in that the only info we have on Wong in ME3 came from a twitter feed.

I didn't like her or her character. Maybe they should have brought back Emily Wong or Gianna Parisini.

I found her to be instantly annoying (and I didn't know who Jessica Chobot was before the voice cast video). The way the camera zoomed way too close to show off her face like I'm supposed to care who she is, her ridiculous outfit, and her bland line delivery. No, she didn't get invited onto my ship.

We should have been able to pick her or Wong.

I didn't really mind, to be honest. I thought it was a little silly initially, but after seeing how people weren't taking the threat seriously I figured they had a point.

I was indifferent to her. Chobot's voice acting was rather sub-par, but the writing for her wasn't that great to begin with. Also her outfit looks absurd and Aller's face just looks off. I really wanted to like the character because the idea of an embedded reporter is good, oh well.

I don't know who the VA is other than the fact that she was not very good. I really don't know why it wasn't Emily Wong cause, you know, that might have more sense.

Think the worst thing about Diana Allers was that the ME universe had already established two reporters ... Kalisa and Emily Wong ...

But ofc, neither of those two wore a skimpy outfit ...

For the people that want an 'indifferent' option for the poll: I don't understand why you even want to vote?? If you are indifferent than you don't care. If you don't care, then why the heck are you even looking at/asking about the poll options??

This poll is obviously for people that have an opinion....one that is either positive or negative. It isn't rocket science. Just move along if you don't care. No need to vote just for the sake of making a statement about the poll itself. That is ridiculous.

In my opinion, they did a horrible job directing her. How did they get such a great performance from so many others yet couldn't coach her with just a couple of lines?? She doesn't sound half as bad in her own IGN vids as she does in this game. It makes it seem like the great voice actors did their job despite Bioware's direction, instead of because of their direction.

Constant reminder of why NOT to ever trust IGN, that's pretty much the only purpose she served.

I thought she was ulgy looked like a chipmunk with nuts in her mouth lol


This.  She needs to spit out the walnuts.  Pointless character worth a whopping 5 points.  I told her she could get on the ship and then promptly kicked her off....after I tapped it.

Lol, they tried to make her the replacement for "Dat Ass" of Miranda Lawson.

Never heard of Jessica Chobot, and I've never visited IGN.
So, I was indifferent.

A bit underwhelming as war assets go. The face of the model looked... not so god. The voice acting was ok, given that it's the first time she's done something like this. It did stand out amongst all the fantastic work from the other actors though.

I just didn't let her on my ship. The last thing I want is some damn reporter running around in my Normandy.
