*Cruel post warning*

at first i was like okay thats one less boy in the world, but after playing for a while and the boy didnt go away in the forgotten memory box i started wishing for a renegade shep that would be like:

Child: everyones dying
Shepard: cmon you need to get out of there...take my hand
Child: you cant help me
Shepard: then i shall show you mercy instead *pulls out the handgun and fires

No. I watched that brat being disintegrated by the Reaper's LAZOR and I felt nothing.
The unskippable dream sequences, however, quickly grated on my nerves.

It's not so much the kid you have to care about but what he represents. Which is all the people that Shepard can't save. When you look at the kid, don't think about him as a specific person but think of him as the embodiment of the people you do care about. He's just an avatar, a face upon which Shepard projects the lives of everyone in the galaxy. Don't get too caught up in the kid as a singular person or individual.

That's what I think anyway.


This.

Plus all the voice overs of the dead characters people here are saying they do care about, and I think the kid is a very well done symbol for all the deaths weighing on Shep's mind.

I hate all that "care about the people shepard cant save".

I really couldnt care less about anyone cept my crew. (and only a few of those). My shep was alliance. So what? It got him off the streets. /shrug

Really all this "FEEL THIS!!!" is just ridiculous. Have you guys even heard of Biowares "agreement"? It basically says that ME3 is **** since they threw it out in favour of "carbon copy shepard".

I actually di I loved the humanity it brought to Shepard albeit a bit heavy handed but all that changed when the kid became the instrument of the worst ending of a fictional reality in the history of the world.

eh the little sh*t should have got out of the vent. it isn't the only kid that gets killed in ME3 . hell shep probably sent a few to the afterlife when blowing up bahak system,. figure that would haunt his or her dreams more ,. but guess they were just batarians after

Yes actually; to the point where I headcanoned my Reth biotically yanking him out of that vent because leaving him was something she would NEVER do. Given that (and the fact that the headcanon had him survive), I guess the dreams never bothered me as much because I saw them less as grief, and more as the Reapers wearing away at Shep's mind. Something they finally succeeded at when Harbinger took Michael's face at the very end of the game.

And what about a Shepard that wouldn't cry over Thane? They get screwed over if you have a crying scene.


No, Make it a choice; an option.

Garrus: "Shepard... Thane's death... Are you ok?"

Shepard: -> "I loved him."
                -> "No."
                -> "I'm fine Garrus."

"I loved him" results in Shepard breaking down a sobbing.

"No." gives Shepard signs that she cares but she's holding back her emotions.

"I'm fine" shows a Shepard that cared very little for Thane's death.

That kid deserved to die.
If they wanted sad, they should have made Anderson die.

As much as I loved Anderson, that actually would have been an awesome idea. If they wanted the player to sit back and actually feel sad, they should have had a character that was close with Shepard die instead of that stupid kid. If Anderson actually died in the beginning, I would have sincerely felt a little depressed. It also would have set the dark and hopeless mood that Bioware was aiming to achieve.

My Shepard lost his team on Akuze, people he knew, he lost Ashley because he couldn't save everyone...and he didn't had nightmares of them. then he saw some nameless kid die and he was very sad...WTF?! That was something totally out of place...

Which is exactly why Mass Effect 3 has SO MANY issues.

When I first saw the kid atthe very beginning I just knew something was going to happen to the little brat. So it was very surprising when something did actually happen.

Agreed. It also would have kept in line with Bioware tradition of redshirts in the opening sequence. :lol:

this would have been 10 times better than some dumb kid that was to damn stupid to listen to an adult who was trying to help so no i didnt really care or the brat at all

The first time, I was a little sad. The fifth time, I told him out loud to f**k off.

It should have been the Widow and the Brother from the 1st game when you convince them about their baby. That would have broken my heart.

Not some random kid who I gave NO CARE for.

It was sad when I first saw him get killed, not gonna lie.

Did I care? ...Erm, not reeeaaally... The kid had two choices: take his chances crawling through the vents, or take the hand of the famous Commander Shepard. The kid chose his fate.

When every single dream showcased Shepard's *supposed* guilt in this matter, that's when he became annoying. The Catalyst taking his image was just a final insult.

F*** no.
Just like in real life, kids make everything worse.
