I really wanted to throw the VS out of the airlock in ME3. I really liked Ash and Kaidan in ME1 but then ME2 and 3 made their defining character trait "doesn't trust Shepard".
Especially in the beginning of the Mars mission. I don't remember what Kaidan said, but Ashley's "I need to know the truth, Shepard", suddenly acting all hurt, is aggravating. And just before that, when the group discovers that Cerberus is attacking the station, she first implies that Shepard somehow knew about it and when Shepard denies it, says "that you have got to admit that it sure is convenient". Ugh, how annoying can you get? I think it was BioWare's intention to make you feel bad because Ashley/Kaidan almost get killed at the end of the mission, but I had more trouble with putting down the woman who finally made them shut up. I wanted to
thank her.
I also get annoyed by Wrex whenever he blames all the Turians in the galaxy for something "they" did to the Krogan. Yeah, I get it Wrex, you're pissed off about that bomb on Tsuchanka. Now tell me what the current Primarch could've done about it. It was planted more than a thousand years before the guy was born! He also does this in ME1, when he implies Garrus, at that point nothing more than a random former C-Sec investigator, was somehow responsible for the genophage. Why? Because Garrus had the nerve to to make the correct observation (near the Krogan Monument at the Presidium) that the Krogan where once the heroes of the galaxy but now simply hated and feared.
