People act like Thane's death is the determining factor in whether ME3 is a happy-go-lucky children's fantasy or a gritty sci-fi war epic, but there's any number of other deaths in the game that Shepard obviously cares about. The kid at the beginning, Mordin, Legion, Miranda, Samara, Tali, Jack, EDI, Cortez, Kaidan/Ash, Victus' son, Eve, Anderson, all quarians, all geth... all of these people can or do die throughout the course of the story. I'm probably even forgetting a few. But wanting an OPTION for Thane to live makes us unable to handle sadness or suffering? Wanting a CHOICE to save him means we're living with childish illusions of happy endings? Please.
Yet its not from me and yo should't fault others when this topic is about opinion. Ignorance will only produce more ignorance.LanceSolous13 wrote...

The writers gave Thane a terminal illness from which it was stated there is no cure. Not a single Drell has ever survived Kepral's Syndrome. The writers than having Thane survive would be like writing a book where one of the characters is dying from AIDS, and at the very end of the book that character survives when a cure for the disease is found. Miraculous @ss pulls do not make for compelling stories.
Also, Thane's terminal illness was not sprung on the player in Mass Effect 3. One of the first things Thane says to Shepard in Mass Effect 2, is "I'm dying." It should have come as a suprise to no one that Thane would die from his disease.
Once the Kepral's Syndrome reveal was dropped there was no where to go with Thane except to have him die at some point from that disease. If it didn't happen in Mass Effect 3, it would happen in the epilogue.

AIDS is managable not curable unless if you're Magic Johnson hence why I mentioned the movie Philadelphia and Rent could even be mentioned.wildannie wrote...
How about the Tony Kushner play Angels in America???. Go watch the mini series, you might learn something. Treatments for AIDS are available and when administered make it a chronic condition... guess what guys, there are people working the world over to develop new treatments for conditions all the time medicine is not static!!!
Doesn't matter if he's aviable candidate even when a lung transplant done on a drell isn't known and Thane wold need a miracle even in ME3 to be cured. Recommendations are done all the time in medicine especially when things are experimental like how Drell treament in general is because of the sheer lack of knowledge on their biology like the Hanar.wildannie wrote...
and Han Shot First, it was stated that he was a viable transplant candidate and while the transplant would prolong a drells life it was not a cure. This very important bit of lore was never explored, and at the very least it should have been, that shepard could not ask him about it was unforgiveable.

I love how everyone is saying Thane should die when all the Thane romancers want is an option to prolong his life. You know, like a choice to save him. Kinda what this entire series has promised us, choices. But ME3 did shove those choices out the window in the end. He was treated horribly in ME3 by the writers and Thane romancers deserved a better time with him. You want Thane to die to keep your story realistic (space magic lulz)? You can choose to have him die. But at least give us the ****ing option to prolong his life/save him if we want too dammit.

My thoughts exactly!
Thanks for understanding and the support!
If that was true then Thane wouldn't have died.wildannie wrote...

Its not at all like we don't have 46 pages of the same result. /sarcasm
Actually ME3 had around the same amont of choices in ME2 and their has always been story centered around each of the ME games. The facts are that Bioware decided what should happen and they showed us that Kepral's Syndrome currently has no cure, which a cure in ME3 with the huge lack of information in ME2 would have to be a miracle like the Lazarus Project. To be fair if there's a ressurrection of Thane then every squadmate that could die could comeback.DoomNation wrote...
