That last bit made no sense at all, Morinth is more dangerous than Samara because she has her sex powers plus everything Samara has like biotics and weapon expertise. I like Morinth a million times better than her boring black and white mother, but you should be cautious with Morinth.


Morinth wouldn't just shoot Shepard though. Yes she shoots people in battle and she does like the occasional duel but she wouldn't murder someone with a gun or a knife. She kills with sex, she wouldn't get anything out of stabbing someone. She tries to seduce Shepard but Shepard has already resisted her once before so there's no reason she can't resist her again.

As for Samara well I agree with Roamingmachine. No doubt Samara has killed hundreds if not thousands of people in the name of justice, Goddess knows how many of them actually deserved it.

There is a difference between a killer who follows a set of external rules and somebody who kills out of a desire to satisfy their cravings. You don't want to tell me that when you had to choose between a trained commando (most of the really good ones sit on the fine line between effective elite soldier and professional criminal, incidentally; it's a proven fact) and somebody who kills on a whim with a lot sof "sensual" and "cool" window dressing, you'd take the lust murderer?
Picking up somebody like Morinth always entails the possibility of her snapping and killing a team or crew member, and making a feaking show out of it. Samara swears an OATH to follow your lead. An oath she will never break until it is fulfilled. Morinth, well, she tags along for the ride and can be trusted about as far as one could throw her.

It was sad, but honestly, you didn't see it coming?
We chose a space vampire over a MILF'y Paladin. We deserved it.

Rule #83 of Mass Effect Discussions: Any discussion of Morinth will inevitably become a debate about the merits of choosing Samara over Morinth, or the other way around.

Morinth deserves SO much more than she got. She was a great characters. A banshee treatment is the worse. Morinth was one of my favorite characters. BioWare, why give us the option to save Morinth if you are not going to even bother have something for her? Because she wasn't popular as other characters?


PLEASE STOP PLAYING FAVORITES BIOWARE!!!!!!!!!

Morinth? Oh, you mean the psychotic mass murdurer back in Mass Effect 2? I let Samara punch her face in. She deserved it.

I heard something about Morinth being turned into a banshee. That's priceless.

It's called Video Game Cruelty Punishment, people. Get used to it.

Why give the option of being a renegade, if all the decent outcomes go to paragons? That makes no sense.


Because Karma is a ****.

At least he could walk like a human.




Though I think his fans got the worse treatment. A huge slap in the face.

Not for long... have seen how the Female fanbase reacted when they found out he had kid by another woman... 

Yeah Mornith got off her death will be relatively painless.    

He cheated... on  Commander Shepard,... the woman  who  hunts down rogue spectres and go through unmapped relays. 

Dude is screwed.

Yeah, well... Shepard seemed pretty okay with the guy cheating on her. Lady hawke even threatend her and Shep seemed totally fine with it (I would have loved a fight between FemShep and Lady Hawke :().


Morinth got the worse treatment. The BANSHEE treatment. Jacob at least got a kid. Morinth got her brain removed. As well as clothes.

I actually liked that Jacob cheated on Shepard. Would have been cool if there would've been more conflict overall in Mass effect related to your romance choice.

^^^^^ NO NO NO NO.

Just because Jacob himself didn't get such a bad treatment (compared to Morinth), his fans did.

There are good romance conflicts (Kaidan/Ashley, IMHO. Thane would have also fallen into the category, if it would have been better executed), and there are horrible ones. Jacob will fall into this category. That cheating thing was NOT a good conflict. It was a breakup. And a very ugly one.

Morinth managed to evade Samara for 400 years. When she was first on the run she about a human equivalent of 13 but her mother still couldn't catch her. Morinth is obviously capable, clever and a powerful biotic. Shepard had no reason to doubt her abilities. From a gameplay point of view I actually prefer dominate to reave (not that gameplay is much to go on since the nerdy archaeologist is more powerful when it comes to gameplay).

I really don't see Morinth snapping and going on a killing spree on the Normandy, it isn't her style. Besides Shepard would get a bit suspicious if her crew all started dying of brain haemorrhages. The fact that Shepard knows what she is makes her much less dangerous. Not that it stops her trying to seduce Shepard of course. But Shep would have to be pretty stupid to agree to sex with Morinth, or at least really drunk. ^_^

Even with all you guys saying that Morinth is a psychopathic murderous hoe, she's still one of my favorite characters. Obviously, I'd never trust a person like that in real life, but none of you can say she's not at least interesting. She's artsy, rebellious, sexy and has the best voice in the game. My problem with her outcome is not that she becomes a Banshee in the end, the problem is how sloppy it was. When Bioware gives a choice, they have the commitment of not favoring either side. If they think Samara's the only character worth writing about, then just strip me the option of siding with Morinth. It'd be very simple and save a lot of complainments. I missed Natalia Cigliuti in ME3, would it be that hard to have her record some lines in the Monastery mission?

Frankly, I thought Morinth becoming a banshee was pretty epic. But it certainly would have been cooler if she'd appeared at a pivotal place and not just as a named NPC tossed away at the end (particularly in a location that doesn't have banshees at all and she's the only one, mega-boss style).

I bet Bioware wanted every choice to mean something, but were severely restrained by giving the potentially biggest game in the triology least time to be developed.

My first Import into ME3 was one with Morinth surviving. I initially shook my head in disbelief when I read the initial email, hoping (and perhaps deluding myself) that there would be actual involvement from her. After all, Bioware stated that every squadmate was returning from ME3. I got to the Ardat Yakshi mission and got excited. I really did. I though the perfect avenue for a Morinth cameo. Even if it meant her sacrificing herself to save her sisters, that would have awesome and more than enough. To my annoyance she was nowhere in sight.

I finished the game and while I was annoyed with the endings, I was also annoyed that Morinth didn't show up anywhere. I didn't realise she was an enemy banshee on Earth, lol. I wasn't paying attention to the names on the HUD, just on decreasing the life meter. That was an extra slap in the face later on.

While I did enjoy my experience with ME3 overall, it just seems like one massive missed opportunity. What should have been the biggest ME game in which they pulled out all the stops turned to be an ordinary entry with a lot of cut corners. 
Ultimately I doubt they care, they already made their money and are obviously content.
