I looked through one of them and some of the plot holes were worse than that actual ending. For example Pressley is still alive despite being blow to hell in 2 and Wrex is a squadmate. Also Liara may have become a little more violent but she doesn't yell out things like head shot as far as I recall. And the end was too cheesey for Mass Effect, I don't want to see 10 years later.

 I'm writing the romance ep but there's a small problem. I doubt Samara would ever give into Shepard's advances. Her strength in the Code is too strong. What do you think. I'll let you break the tie. Would Samara leave the service of the Justicars for Shepard?

Pressley is not alive. Where did you read that? He's not ever mentioned ever. You mean Engineer Adams, he's in the game in main engineering. And WREX should have been a squadmate. Period. You don't like the epilogue. Too bad, a lot of people wanted it that way.

Oh crap, you're right. My mind wrote Presley instead of Adams. This sucks I have to fix 200 pages now.

Hey there just checking in, sounds like things are getting a little tense!  Deep breaths..........  Anyway to answer your question regarding Samara, (assuming you're still asking), personally I don't think she would leave the Justicars for Sheperd, she's too focused and committed.   My judgement may be clouded though by the fact that I was just never really convinced by these two getting together so my opinion may not be worth much.

No you're right. I feel the same way but I was interested in hearing what people thought about Samara. Especially those who fell for her. I was convinced though that Samara found Shepard oddly captivating and felt some attraction unlike any other that grew over time. Then reading the wiki that she was listed as a romance option for M and Fem Sheps I had to write it.

True enough.......I guess I always looked at Samara as more of a "mother figure" (for want of a better phrase), esp if you compare her to Liara and thought the relationship was more borne out of respect than romance.  But as you say people who may have gone for the romance option deserve their closure too.

hmm have a horrible sinking feeling that calling Samara a mother figure on this forum may just come back and bite me!

2 hours. It took 2 hours of editing to replace the Typo in all 200 pages. And that was working fast.

Nah I got that too. She's lived for a very long time. But she's still got feelings of her own hidden behind her code. She's very attractive as all asari are. And ppls are into her. I was too, I did try to romance her if only to see where it would lead.

Wait, are you writing all these endings by yourself?

Thank you very much. It's a lot harder than it looks.

I'm not sure what to write next. Samara's romance epilogue was the one of my last options.

Look forward to trying this out tonight when I get home and will post back then, but it looks great.

On Samara though, she reminded me of Aveline in DA2, one of my favourite characters in that game. I respected the devs for not making her romancable in ME2, as it explored aspects of non-romantic relationships better. It was good in both games to have female companions who were more than simply potential partners, and I wish they had explored that a bit further with characters like Jack, if you didnt take the romance path there.

Losing the friendship aspect, for me at least would be a bit of a shame, but like so much that was how I chose to interpret the character. For others it might open up the character a bit and give a chance to explore her nature beyond what was given. Considering she lost two daughters, and was willing to die for the last, who knows how she might have changed.

Expert analasys . Very thoughtful. I'll be thinking on this.

Some of the dialogue was needlessly wordy but the over all premise is really solid. Good work.

Maybe a short story about what a non-squadmate did during the attack on earth while Shepard was trying to get into the Citadel, or what a squadmate has done now that the reapers are defeated/on the run, or another bar story...

Idk, just threw out some ideas to get the creative juices flowing lol

That reminds me about an idea I had a week ago, which I forgot about. Grunt, just out there kicking ass.
