Anything Allers said, because of her bad delivery that can rival ME 1 & 2 Male Shep's.
Most of Liara's lines on Thessia.
Not a line exactly, but Jack's little freakout in ME2 when she's that the Normandy is a Cerberus ship makes me shake my head very hard.
Which brings me to her students. What age were they aiming for? Almost every line from Rodriguez and the other guy definitely made me cringe.
Can't think of anything else right now.
The average gamer is in their mid 30s now. The average game company manager still thinks that teens are the largest consumer of these games. Hence look at the ages of the characters: Liara is barely an adult, Tali is barely legal age, Samantha is about 26, Vega is 25.
Bottom line: they need to start making the age of the LIs a bit older. I felt like I was robbing the cradle.
Interesting post. But Kaidan and Miranda are admittedly older than the other LIs. Thane too.
Tali hardly lega? Tali's in her mid twenties. If anything, Liara's robbing the craddle. Her society says she hardly an adult. She's still 6 times older than Shepard.
Okay, I read the article before correction re: Tali. Mid 20s. Still that's about 10 years younger than Shepard. Most of the LIs are about 10 yrs younger than Shepard. Liara is about the same age as well. Asari mature slowly. Physically she's an adult, but mentally she is barely an adult and equivalent to about a 21 year old human. Miranda while 35 is still dealing with quite heavily with daddy issues. Jacob Taylor is 28. I was dead on for Kaiden, 35. Ashley Williams, 28, apparently rising quite fast through the ranks despite the crap assignments, and going to OTS, and N7 training. Kasumi? 25.
I would like to play a protagonist that doesn't appear like they made femShep -- she looks about 20 in the picture, and needs to age about 15-20 years to be believable for what she's been through.

priority:earth, communications tech officer: "is there someone else I can connect you to?"
shep: "jack"
tech guy:"certainly, i'll connect you now"
that guy has to be a psychic.

Well shepards age is debatable if you want to go off looks. I mean you can make your shepard look like 60 lol. The DOB in codex isnt something I take very seriously. Just like shepards first name "Commander".
Dont look at me like that.. if Shepard had a real first name it would have been on the memorial wall >.>

What actions? You don't even no why it and the reapers do anything in the first place before meeting the catalyst. Before meeting it you can't make heads or tales of the reapers reasoning.

he made the reapers, action
he enacted the harvest, action
destroyed civilisations, action
subjegated the reapers and apparently left them unaware of this, action
blended organics into people jam, action
all of his own free will. a link to leviathan saying the catalyst is shackled if you will?
and now a joke. what do you call a police officer with no home? hobocop! right?
[/quote]And hears the grand question that helps bring up my point....Why?
[/quote]
because for inexplicable reasons he thinks that's a solution to the 'inevitable' (source catalyst?) conflict between synthetics and organics. it isn't. the only synthetics that have ever destroyed that much are the reapers. he should be burning himself, he's the biggest threat to organics the galaxy has ever seen. in his words he was created to "oversee relations between synthetics and organics" how he went about this is entirely up to him. therefore his choice, his will, his war.
[/quote]
I think you need to take some time to understand why it inexplicable thinks that conflict with orgnics and synthetics will inevitable happen.
[/quote]
you keep trying to bring this back to him being 'shackled' firstly you gotta give me a source bro, the main game doesn't mention this, and seems to imply the catalyst is some form of omnipotent galactic overlord, his offense at the mere suggestion of him being just an a.i is indicitave of this.
also, he was not created to make people jam. no where in his programming does it say 'make people jam'. that is his choice. he was not programmed to invade and destroy civilisations. that is his choice. when fire burns, it's not necessarily at war. if i set a fire in my enemies base, it is.

It shows a huge lack of creativity that Bioware didn't stagger these characters throughout the mission in specific roles. Nah, they don't need to be fighting, they just wait around the holo-projector for Shepard to call them when he feels like it. <_<

So this is how we end our hero's journey.
MP isn't required for the SP campaign.
(Insert ending choice here) was the best option.
Anyone who chose (Insert Ending Here) is guilty of (Insert War Crime Here).
Oh, wait, you're probably talking about in game, right?

yeah sure, the galaxy needs more losers that can't deal with one unarmed human guy. Oh uhm did I mention he is even to dumb to use the spectre terminal by himself?

Yeah but it really doesn't matter as people have pointed out. Fighting will kill you so they all probably should have just left the galaxy when they maybe had the chance.

There are quite a few, but none got to me more than the amount of times the "Calibrations" meme was brought up, after the fifth time I was ready to shoot everyone in the ship.
