I'm probably going to get flamed for this, but every word that comes out of Shepard's mouth in the ME3 Ashley romance makes me cringe.



I feel pretty much the same about the Kaidan romance.


Eh, I thought Kaidan's actually seemed pretty genuine. Ashley's just felt like a Romeo and Juliet play I was in in High School.

Here's one from the ME2 Tali romance:

(monotone) "It's okay. C'MERE."

*cringe*

"Nope, he was indoctrinated by those Reapers. But you can do it, maybe. Would this face lie to you?"
The whole Catalyst dialogue is idiotic. Within the scene itself, we are given no reason to believe the Reaper king anymore than TIM has reason to believe the Reapers who indoctrinated him. Both Shepard and TIM are made to believe that controlling the Reapers is possible by a Reaper or something that works closely together with the Reapers.

TIMs plan before getting indoctrinated was to control the Reapers to get a second great advancement for humanity due to alien technology.  TIM coming to that conclusion had nothing to do with being indoctrinated.  It was the common sense observation that the advanced technology made incredible improvements.  TIM becoming indoctrinated made him change from his goal to just being a pawn of the Reapers.  This is a very simple "IF X, then Y" logical statement.  If X, you can control the Reapers with the blue ending, then Y, the Illusive Man was right.  Regardless of your hate for the catalyst, at the end of the blue ending, you command the Reapers to fall back and they do, so he was not lying and TIM was right.

There's still no reason to believe the Catalyst at the moment Shepard comes to that conlusion. What we see afterwards doesn't make the Catalyst dialogue any less stupid.
And what we see is pretty vague, anyway. We don't know how much control Shepard has over the Reapers exactly or if it's permanent.

Enough with the Catalyst hate. There is reason to believe him A) if you don't do something the Reapers will wipe out your Allied Fleet and you lose and B) he has no reason to help you in the first place. If you don't want to believe him, stand around the crucible until you get a nonstandard game over because the crucible gets shot down. You have no reason to believe Sovereign in ME1 on Virmire, you have no reason to believe EDI in ME2 when she just pulls out that Reapers are organic synthetic hybrids when nothing previous gave you any indication of that, and you have no reason to believe the catalyst either. It just is.

This sounds like a great discussion for a thread on whether to trust the Catalyst or not.  Wlecome to the "Worst line from Shepard" thread which is not it.

"I...don't know."

What an epic way to suck, Shepard.

Oh and anything she says on Earth. It's like she went retarded whenever she got near it.

Not convinced.
a) I'd rather take the chances with convential warfare before accepting the Catalyst's logic.
B) That's what makes his motivations nonsensical.

You don't have to accept the Catalyst's logic. Just shoot the tube and be done with it >.>

"I should go." -- the famous facepalmer

comparing the first contact war to the genophage
"The only thing I care about is stopping Saren." -- Anderson's just finished telling you about his time as a Spectre candidate. This is your conversation closer.
"I won't sacrifice the soul of our species"
"I won't let fear compromise who I am."
"I thought we'd just talk for a bit." -- femShep to Jacob. -- this was the "Hey player this is your relationship in this game!!!!" hammer. It's the overly flirty way the line was delivered.

"I'll take it!!!!"

It is kinda related.  If the catalyst is right (which all signs point to it being correct) then claiming "Then the Illusive Man was right" to be one of the worse lines in the series is nonsensical.

Another good one:

"Stealing from the dead. That's pretty low."

Oh the hypocrisy!

I'd would say "SSSTTTEEEVVVEE!!!" I shouldn't be laughing when a man nearly dead or actually died but its entertaining more than annoying so I don't think it's the worst.

Even though I didn't witness it personally in any of my playthroughs, having seen the Jacob reunion for FemSheps who romanced him in ME2 on youtube...the dialogue is awful. She can go from trying to nail him whilst he has a bullet wound on a doctors table...to calling him an a**hole.

Its like FemShep is briefly replaced by an alternate version of herself from a dimension filled with crazed bi-polar bunny boilers.

I don't really think it's the "STEVE!!" itself that is funny, it's more likely the line that follows.

And the very worse line is in fact the lack of wannabe heroic speech when talking to the catalyst.

When talking to Miranda in ME2:

"You know you want this" (Or something like that)

I don't know...to me, that was kind of out in left field and lulz/wtf worthy

It is tie between "I.. don't know" - due to the context, and "Steeeeeeve!" due to stupidity.
