It's touching, really... My Shepard, MY Shepard, is going out in a blaze of glory... to save the galaxy... even if none of it makes a lick of sense. Anyway, I hear the sad piano music playing, and if the Incredible Hulk TV show taught me anything, it's that slow, sad, pensive piano songs mean it's time to feel emotion. FEEL, dammit, FEEL!

And then Shepard starts to think back at the people most important to him. Yes, there's Anderson, always believing in me, inspiring me. Yes, there's Joker... who I don't yet know ran off with my love interest, Tali. That's okay. I don't know that yet. Ignorance is bliss.

Time for one more thought... er, Liara?

Er, no offense, Liara, really, but we're just friends. You tried to get into my pants so many times and I kept telling you "no" and scolding you like a naughty puppy, but you never learned. You even ninja'ed me into a romance in ME1 and I had to load a prior save to get you off me. I think you're very smart and very sweet, but you're not the girl for me.

I romanced ASHLEY in Mass Effect 1, but we broke up and I instead romanced Tali in my second-shot at life in ME2 and all through ME3. Ashley became one of my best friends, and Tali became my one and only.

... So, why is my Shepard's last living thought of some girl I wasn't that attracted to and tried to keep at arm's length throughout three games? Why wasn't I thinking of my first love, Ashley, or my final love, Tali? Heck, why can't I think about my BFF, the one and only Archangel of Omega?

(Seriously, does ANYONE care about Anderson more than Garrus? ... Oh yeah? Well, what if Garrus was born in London TOO?!)

Thematically, I'm... confused. My Shepard's brain is not making sense right now. Again, no offense to you, Liara... you have a great body... but Liara was one of the LAST people I was thinking of as the galaxy was coming to a close. I was thinking of those that I had bonded with more over my playthroughs... of Tali, Ashley, Jack, Garrus, Thane, Kasumi, Samara, Wrex, Traynor, Jacob...

(Ha ha, totally kidding about that last one)

So, my Shepard's last statement is "I... don't know" and my Shepard's last thought is "Liara".

... And the game's last words are "downloadable content".

I am not amused.

(Neither is Anderson)

Ya they really need to adjust those final character scenes to suit each Shepard exclusively.

Liara's the best, so I didn't mind, but I think it should look more something like this:

Anderson, Joker, LI, Most used Squaddies through the game or the most talked to squaddies and maybe a reflection of all the squaddies who died in the Suicicde mission and the one on Virmire (all in one shot together though)

Liara is pregnant with Shep's children wether you romanced her or not. remember before Priority earth where she gives Shep "one more gift"?

well that merge was meant for Liara to be impregnated with Shepards children.

theoretically this could have been intended from the beginning of the franchise. this would explain why Liara is one of the few squadmates that can not die and why Asari can have children with either gender

HA! My Renegade FemShep said NO to her on that.

Sorry, Liara. You're not violating MY genes!

She is an important part of your team.
Agreed you haven't been though as much as you have with Garrus, Tali and Joker but she and Shepard are good friends.
They should patch it for love intrests though but i'm not annoyed by this.

You can have Ash as your final thought but you must have romanced her across all 3 games. As for the thought of Liara...Well, she has been with you since the start of the road and has been pretty much Shepard's best friend aside from Joker, Garrus and Tali.
But I think why he wasn't included because Anderson was Shepard's mentor while Shepard was more of a mentor to Garrus. Besides he just died 5 minutes ago.
As for why the other ME1 squad member who are a squad member again: to many varibiles if you get me. They die at point where Liara does not.

I was kind of shocked when I realized everyone saw it. Liara was my LI for my first playthru, so I just naturally thought that's why she pops in there last.

Now that I know that's not the case: bad form, bioware.

If you don't engage with Liara outside of the moments where you have no choice, you may not even get that offer. One of my renegade Sheps didn't, so no mind rape for me :)

I wouldn't mind Liara being in the flashback, as she has been an influential figure in the series, if we were also guaranteed to have a flash of our LI as well.

Good thing I romanced Ashley, lol but seriously they need to do something about this it's not very fair to players who don't romance a ME1 love interest.

I agree, It certainatly made me grind my teeth in frustration. My Shepards final thoughts should have been of Tali, not Liara.

It seems that even in imminent death, Shepard could not escape Liara.

I was pretty sure my exploding Shepard's last thought was going to be of Jack before he inexplicably and willingly walked INTO the gigantic ball of fire.

But the game told me otherwise.

Besides the flashbacks were the only part of the ending which I enjoyed. It did feel -despite the nonsence- the end of the road.
