And bw has a priority for dextro human hybrids babies...

How about a romance DLC, that way, you get something special with the character you romanced, so those who romanced Jacob, thane, etc, can get something special before certain spoilers happened.

It's another idea that has come up a time or two

It won't happen because bw never cared about those characters.

I believe we know what Mordin's BSN name is.

Never underestimate them when there's a dime to be made.

Well, scepticism is understandable and will exist until proven otherwise

They don't hate us. They don't love us. It's all about whether they can make more money with this than some other DLC. I tend to think not, but it isn't malice.

I'm JeffZero, and this is my favorite post on BSN.

Totally read that in Mordin's voice. This post = so much win!

Awesome. Posts like that are the reason I'm still here.

For some reason this makes me want to laugh and cry at the same time...

Never underestimate a ****-storms ability to kill future sales.  ALL ME DLC may not be profitable from now on.  Can't judge anything as being profitable until they actually release another paid DLC and thus give an oppurtunity to gauge where the fans stand on buying more stuff via blind faith. I think those days are over.

Unfortunately you may be right. I wonder how many people stopped caring after the whoel ednign fiasco. EVen if teh EC satiated the largest flames...how many just simply moved on; tired after all these months. We'll see. I hope any me 2 char dlc isn't axed because of the ending but I can see how the above quote can happen. I hope I am wrong.  I'd really like to see this DLC.

[hot_heart]

I do wonder, but I also think that doing something with other characters rather than Shepard would make for a nice break from the main story. Especially since a lot of the ME2 squad feel so side-lined.

Not that I would expect BioWare to do something with them, without you playing as Shepard.

I don't think that BioWare sees Miranda/Jack DLC as profitable.

Guess why BioWare cared about Liara in the first place: Fans. A lot.
Liara has the biggest fanbase from all characters and that's why she is not kill-able, has a crucial plot in every game and therefore the most content. Storytelling crime right there, but those who care are a minority anyway.

Miranda and Jack are not in the upper ranks of fans and that's why they are side-lined. Only thing we can hope for: Miranda is the most famous of all the side-lined. She has a slim possiblity to get content. Jack is then an addition who could hype up Miranda to something that everyone enjoys: That catfight and unusual teamup makes it more than a character-focussed DLC.

So... I would call my current state cautiously optimistic.

[spirosz]

Exactly. Sure, Jack and Miranda combined are a lot of fans, but enough in Bioware's eyes, I don't know. Look at the reason they made Tali a squadmate for ME3, vocal and large fanbase, while Jack's fanbase was still vocal, we were little. I still wondered why Miranda didn't get a bigger role, since she was a huge impact in ME2, plus her fanbase was pretty large, no?

I'd rather they unsticky this, but that's just me.

[D1ck1e]

I'd pay for it, pre or post ending.

Actually, in ME2's day, it seemed like they cared about nothing but those characters.

They hyped them up pre-release, created individual trailers for them, gave them personality labels, devoted an entire game to their personal stories almost to the exclusion of the actual plot, seemed excited about introducing them to us, showed us concept art books detailing the thought processes behind their aesthetic designs, put them in commercials, and told us how much we'd love them and how tempted we would be to abandon our old romances in favor of the new ones.

If anything is to be learned from this, it is not that BioWare never cared. It is that they are fickle.

With each new release, their focus shifts and the past is neglected. When ME2 came out, a lot of ME1 was ignored. Back then, it was the ME1 characters that fans accused BioWare of having never cared about. Now the situation has been reversed. But unlike the situation with the ME1 cast, it is too late to fix the problem.
