Have to say was gonna not romance a yoman after ME2, but liked Samantha's charachter straight off, so my FemShep romanced her in my single play through. Thought she was way better than Kelly, who was my romance in my first ME2 play.

Yeah, she's kinda lovely. I've been meaning to make a Shepard for her almost since the first time I met her.

My FemShep put the moves on her, but it got serious too fast. Liara found out and was kind of mad.

I don't think you have to clarify what gender your Shep was. lol

Male Shepard gets turned down hard.

I've always romanced Liara, but when the opportunity to jump in the shower with Traynor came up it was hard. I sat there hovering over the options thinking, would Liara find out? Is this worth it? How serious is this? Despite my personal dilemma, paragon Shepard had a quick word in my ear and reminded me of our perceived virtue. I didn't do it in the end and boy, am I glad.

Agreed. I need someone to take care of my fish, not to play chess with. That damn aquarium VI is expensive! :P

Eleven reasons to like Kelly over Traynor:

1. Red hair.
2. Has respect for your work - says the saving the galaxy needs to come first before you both have time for romance.
3. Has an emotional response to the crisis.
4. Is caring about other people - puts all her time into helping refugees.
5. Is a good dancer.
6. Kept your fish alive for 6 months while you were grounded.
7. Tried to save Space Hamster - cares for animals.
8. Has large green eyes.
9. Has a real need for you and is appreciative - you save her life at least three times.
10. Provides a civilian perspective to a romance. Potentially the only romance who isn't a soldier of some sort? My Shepard enjoys a life outside the military.
11. Writes to you.

Kelly also has a more dedicated fanbase. In the 485 page LI tribute book being compiled, there are multiple Kelly letters and fanarts, but nothing done for Traynor. Probably a smaller fanbase, but more dedicated.

I liked Kelly in ME2, but not in ME3. She was too depressing, and no longer as cute. Also, she killed herself when Shepard turned her down, and that kind of behaviour is a pretty big turn-off.

i like both personally, but Katelynn did the whole true love thing, so she might not romance anyone.

oh, uh hey lelianaHawke, still not mad at me for like Samantha a little more than Kelly? but i always thought that any romance with Kelly was just for fun, a fling. Sam seems more like a fast-paced lust turned emotional love .

It really comes down to how you interpret your Shepard's feelings. You're in control of how Shepard feels, not the game. I say my Shepard loves Kelly.

Besides, in ME3 the game does actually give you the chance to tell Kelly you love her.

I suppose its inevitable that people will compare Kelly and Traynor, they don't really have the same job but they have a similar role.

The thing I really liked about Kelly is that she's Mass Effect's Average Joe. Where everyone else is extraordinary (an expert or genius, etc) Kelly is just your nice secretary. She gets frightened, she's not a soldier or a scientist but she still wants to help and I think that's admirable. I find her easier to relate to than most of the characters.

Traynor kind of filled the role of Average Joe but not as well. I liked that she got a bit flustered around Shepard and that she was crap at taking compliments (I think that's kind of a British thing though). Traynor takes a while to come out of her shell which I liked.

I did like that Traynor tells Shepard "flatter me all you like, I'm still not feeding your fish." I think that was the writers way of saying "she isn't Kelly!"

Oh yeah Samantha, very effort-less character in the romance part they put into her.

She comes right on top of my most boring LI's in ME3 list.

Wasn't the suicide connected with Shepard being a royal dick to her when she confesses that she spied on you for TIM? If it's true, she must have felt tremendously guilty for unwittingly bertraying her friend/lover, as well as working for a horrible terrorist organization. Adding to the mental trauma she endured not only on the Collector ship, but during the coup where she got to see Cerberus' work first hand, is it really so strange that she just couldn't deal with it anymore? Shepard refusing to forgive her was probably the last straw. Poor girl.

Anyway. I adore them both. Kelly is a very sweet person and Samantha is the very definition of adorkable. She can beat me at chess anytime.

that was just the overall feel i got from the ME2 romance in ME 3 i feel that if Shepard "rekindles" the romance with Kelly that it is more persuing a real one with her.

no offense:whistle:

I'm not actually sure what you're saying there.

just that i feel there was no real romance with Kelly in ME2 and if "rekindling" it with her in ME3 makes me feel like i actually am persuing a real one.

I'm still confused, because you earlier said that any romance with Kelly is "not real". Now you're saying that the ME3 one is real?
