Making him survive goes against his character. Give him a more respectable and prolonged death to appease the fans, but don't make him survive.

You knew he was going to die when you romanced him, you have to deal with that.

@yamainu-This dog loves everyone......glad he made you smile. It's easy to get down-trodden these days, so it's the simple things in life we should enjoy and smile at.....like silly black pugs. I used to use these games as a way to 'escape' from those RL things that make your stomach sink and your heart ache......and your head hurt.....and your blood pressure go up. Now, I feel the need to find other aspects to focus on, since these very RL reactions started happening when I played this game....ugh!

Pugs for all, and deviant dialogue, and beautiful art, and humor, and ignoring subjective haters, and chocolate, and booze..................,<and ridges>

@Coldi: I absolutely know what you mean. I really tried a new playthrough at the weekend, But I started crying after 10 minutes because I thought about the things that will happen - Thane, Mordin, Palaven, Thessia - Shep herself. I can't stand it. I don't even need to think of our beloved one I just need to think about the picture in my head - Thessia going down. This was such a terrible moment for me, I really can't stand it. And then the end came in my first and as it seems only playthrough and I wasn't able to stop crying for hours. As you said I want to escape reality. I don't need fluffy pinky clouds everywhere, just look at DA2. The ending was really ok for me even if there was some drama in ;)

I agree - we will definately need pugs and the other things. I would only add one more thing here: more ridges :) I think I would need Oscar for the first 24 hours and cuddle him down when we start this :)

How pathetic.
You don't know anything about Thane. You are clearly not a fan so why don't you go find something else to do with your time.

I know that he's resigned himself to his death, and that's something that should happen regardless of wether or not you wish he didn't die. Allowing him to survive just because of his romance is wrong from a good writing perspective.

Oh, and I am still trying to come up with something for the poster, but everything I think of ends up being to long.......ugh!

"I consider the death of my body and a chill settles in my gut. I'm afraid and it shames me Siha"

and:

"I once accepted my fate. Nothing remained but a shell destined to die. I only had to choose the when and how of my passing. .

The expectation to move swiftly to my end vanished upon uniting with your cause. You awoke me, Shepard. My heart quickened its sluggish beat if only to remain at your side and protect you with everything that I am"


Does that sound like a man with a death wish?

Beceause it sure doesn't to me.


Truth be told, you are not going to change our minds.

And by extension, if that was your intent with your post, then yes, you are wasting your time.

I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and go on the notion that you don't quite understand what this poster is about.

"For an option" is an option to save or prolong Thane in ME3. This poster is for everyone, not just for the romancers. I'm not saying that anything should be taken away from the game. If you are pleased and content with how Thane was handle in ME3, then I'm happy for you. If you would have liked the option to see more of him, learn more about his character and perhaps have him fighting at your side again, then lead us your support.

I'm not exactly promoting a cure. Although there is many people who would have liked to have that option and I for one will not keep others from believing in it. Regardless if you disgree, it doesn't mean that they don't have the right to fight for one.

I personally would not mind seeing Thane cured in ME3, in matter of fact I would love the chance too. However I can also live with him being prolonged. What I wanted like so many others did is to have Thane in our game experience. His character was killed off far too early in the game. The people who romanced him got hit the hardest with that decision.

Valid viewpoints on why and how Thane could be saved/prolong has been posted over and over through out the forums. Many of the people here in this thread have been fighting for a chance to have Thane back. They have talked, discussed and agrue these viewpoints for a very long time now. I am one of those people as well.

We can go back and forth for all time about the issue, but it won't solve the problem which is not going to go away anytime soon. How his romance was handle is a seperate topic, but how Bioware treated it has been the fuel behind why so many of us just wanted a different outcome. They and myself were subjugated to a failed romance and a death scene that didn't provide closure.

Personally, if they were ever to make a fix, I can't go through Thane's death again. The damage has been done and I like to see something else now.

Yes I know he said he was dying, however his death didn't need to be written in stone. An option would have made everyone happy. The more people who fight me on this, the more determine I become for an option. I guess you can say that no one can ****** on my parade.

Good day.

Oh, and Bocks?

Troll sat alone on his seat of stone.
And munched and mumbled a bare old bone;
For many a year he had gnawed it near,
For meat was hard to come by.
Done by! Gum by!
In a cave in the hills he dwelt alone,
And meat was hard to come by.


*throws a bone* Enjoy.

Thanks so much :) I am better, just feeling a little beat up.

I believe you posted on an earlier date on how an option can work in ME3? I need to dig back into the thread but if you like to compile those thoughts and send it to me, I will send it along with my letter to BW.

Yeah I know you've been driving yourself crazy with this. Just send me what you got and I will work into the poster. I don't want you to miss out.  I just accepted a long one from Myth only cause I didn't want to be driving her crazy as well. I know she has been working on the Fanbook.

Ps. Your pug is beautiful, so adorable<3

Oscar (Wilde) Pug kisses for all......and trust me, he'd lick ya'll to death! :D

I have two different (possible) fixes that they could probably do with minimal effort, but of course, even minimal effort is technically resources, and we know how "stretched" they are for resources.....<grumble/mumble> I will send you both. One I posted yesterday, and the other I posted a few times on other threads.

Oh, and here is my quote......(sorry in advance; I think the wine was talking)

"Thane quickened my Shepards, and set their pan__ahhHearts (that's it) on fire. Now Ulee's Perpetually Drunk, Cate turned pirate, Mace has blinders on, and Evan just naps in ME2 (Thane by her side, of course). Bring Thane Back!"

Aw, I love the name too. He is too sweet to say no to any puppy kisses! I'm glad to see he is a supporter of Thane though! lol.

Oh good, I'm glad to hear it. When you get a chance, send it my way. I would love to offer them ideas as well. For the life of me, I keep trying to come up with concepts on my own, but one idea turns into six ideas... and then I end up with a novel. But yeah... don't even get me started on "the lack of resources"... they sure did have plenty for Liara.

Love the message and I added it into the poster. I'm working on the update now, so yours will be included in it. Oh btw, what country are you from? I need to add that in as well.

Like I promised, here is the poster project. This is for anyone who would have liked to be given an option in ME3 to save/prolong Thane.

The poster itself will be 54X36 and I will be sending it directly to Bioware. The poster is going to be an epic one. I work in the movie business and I know how to get movie size posters printed. lol.

http://squeegee83.de...oject-299426849 (Remember to zoom in)

I will be running the project to May 14th or until I get enough personal messages from people. If for some reason I get a lot more messages than I have room for on the poster, I will make extra panels so everyone gets included.

I am also running this project over at deviantArt.

To participate, all you have to do is send me the following information in a PM. It's very simple and the only rule you need to follow is this:

Personal Messages must be kept small and no flaming Bioware. Your message must be about why you feel/think there should have been an option. Just follow the examples of the people who already submitted to the poster or from me. Also, please provide me with all the information that I ask.

Examples: 

"Mass Effect will never be the same without Thane".
"Thane was the backbone of my Shep, he/she was not the same after Thane's passing".
"I hoped to save Thane! I was disappointed in only one outcome".
"There is nothing wrong with wanting to save the man that you love. There should have been an option".
"Thane was more than his disease, I was sad to see him define by it in ME3".
"I will always keep fighting for Thane! I won't give up until he is there with me until the end".


Information: (Copy and Paste... then send it in a PM to me)

Username:
Personal Message:
Country you are from:

I hope to hear from you and remember, don't ever stop fighting for Thane!

~~~***There is also a poster project running for Miranda. Please give them your support and love! Remember we all need to stick together: http://social.bioware.com/group/7341/****~

***Update*** 5/1/12

I was able to provide one quickly... lol.

Update on the Poster: http://imageshack.us...sterupdate.jpg/

***Update*** 5/2/12

It looks like I am going to have to make extra panels. So please don't feel rushed to submit a message. It's going to take me a couple days to make additions.

Update on the Poster: http://imageshack.us...terupdatev.jpg/

***Update*** 5/3/12

I am still working on adding an extra panel, but here is the update so far.

Update on poster: http://imageshack.us...4/72407838.jpg/

In meanwhile, I like to share with everyone what inspired me to do this project in the first place. When I did the original “For a Choice” art piece, I was hit with an overwhelming response to it on deviantArt. It saddens me that so many people felt the same way and thought they were alone in this. I am very empathetic person and I nearly felt everyone who came to talk to me, either through comments or notes. What also inspired me was the Thane Fanbook that was run by yamainu1984 and Moira-chan, she reminded me we all have to do what we can for the fight for Thane.

Here is the link to the deviantArt art piece, please check out the comments. I hope it inspires a few of you who are just lurking to come and participate in the project. You are not alone!

http://squeegee83.de...tions-297153678

***Update*** 5/4/12

I literally ran out of room on the poster. I couldn’t believe it, it has only been four days. So I added 3 more panels in and extended one panel. Now I should have plenty of room… I think. lol. I will have the update on the poster by tomorrow. Please keep ‘em messages coming!

***Update*** 5/5/12

I have decided not to upload through imageshack anymore. Let's face it, it sorta sucks. Instead I am going to provide links to the poster through deviantart. The zoom in feature is 1000x better.

As I promised, I made more room on the poster. I hope it's enough because I'm not sure if I can add any more panels in.

Update on poster: http://squeegee83.de...oject-299426849

Now I'm off to start writing that letter to bioware.....



***Update*** 5/6/12

The poster is coming along smoothly and so far there haven’t been any problems. However I need to let you all know that I feel in the next few days, I am going to probably be maxed out on the poster. So for those who
have said that they liked to participate or just lurking, I strongly suggest you send in your message now. If you need help or ideas, please let me know.

Update on poster: http://squeegee83.de...oject-299426849

Last night, I tweeted Patrick Weekes. I let him know about the poster. He did respond back but I’m afraid if I post it up, his message will be taken out of context. There was a discussion going on about Thane’s death and if I post only one response, the meaning of the message will be misunderstood. The point of me even saying anything is that I wanted to let him know that there is a problem with Thane’s death.

However his message gave me an idea. The poster reflects our emotions, hurt and/or disappointment. So I like to also reflect some logic as well. So for anyone who likes to write letters can send me one. What I am looking for is ideas on how an option to save/prolong Thane can work in ME3. I know a few of you won’t be able to resist the urge to also discuss your feelings on how Thane's death and no option to save him made you feel. I’m okay with it as long as you provide ideas for an option.

There is no page limitation. I also need to make this very clear. This is not a fan book project. I will simply collect letters from people, print and compile it all into something that is simple and nice. I will then send it in along with the poster.

I don’t expect many letters and I don’t want to hold anyone back from expressing their thoughts freely. So I am allowing you all to go about writing your letter any way that you like, just don’t flame/cuss out Bioware.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Please send all letters in a pm to me. Also make sure to spell/grammar check yourself because relying on me to doing it for you is like relying on Bioware to do things right. It would be such a fail.

Deadline: 5/14/12


***Update*** 5/7

I have gotten food poisoning like you will not believe. That is what I get for eating crab. LOL. Please bare with me, it's been killing me all day. I got the shakes and I'm dead tired. I'll update better tomorrow and I will get back with everyone who posted/noted me. I'm just so tired right now.

I also just want to say... crab is still awesome... even if it nearly kills you. haha.

I want thank everyone who wished me well. I am better now, just feeling a little beat up. I think I won’t be eating
anything from the ocean again for awhile. lol.

The other day I was told to go check out the posters that the Miranda fan base is now running. I offer them my support and a few were interested in joining an alliance with the Thane fan base. However that is still in talks but if
you like to offer your support, please go check out their group: http://social.bioware.com/group/7341/

Well like I said earlier, I’m running out of room on the poster. This is pretty much the moment to send in your messages before I will have to close the whole thing down. I’m pretty excited about it though.

Update on poster: http://squeegee83.de...oject-299426849

I am still collecting letters on ideas on how an option in ME3 can work. The deadline on that is 5/14/12. So if any of you guys have ideas, please send it my way.

I also like to thank yamainu and Raven7Wings for advertising the project in their groups on DA. Thanks so much guys, you rock!

Thank you so much and you are welcome. Btw, the poster isn't just for people who romanced Thane, its for anyone who would have like an option to either save or prolong Thane in ME3.

Oh yeah I know, all the ME2 romances in ME3 were not treated well at all. I have always been for a fix for everyone. Samara fans were hoping this time around that they would get a shot with her, but was turned down again. The whole thing, in my opinion has been a mess. So many people got hurt... it's unbelievable.

I always like Jack and Miranda. I don't think ME3 did either one of them justice. But, yes, once I get done with this project and it turns out to be a success. When I say success, that they will at least acknowledge it. So much work, love and time has been place in and so many people have contribute to it... I don't think it can be easy ignore. I'm hoping anyways.

I would love to help or run a project for the romances or on a conflict of interest. I was a bit surprised that Wrex wasn't a playable character in ME3. I know my bro sure did love him. I was also asked by a few people that romance Tali if I be willing to do something for them. But we all need to talk after this poster is done and see what we can come up with. It would be awesome for me to help others out.

Btw, I don't know if you are aware, but the Miranda peeps have a group for a poster of their own. I was asked to swing by and I offered them my support. Here is the link: http://social.bioware.com/group/7341/

I'll be sure to swing by those two threads and check it out! Thanks!
