What do I mean? I mean, in ME2 he didn't die, right? And since ME3 wasn't out yet, then I didn't know that he would die. Especially knowing that Thane wasn't at peace with dying and there were viable treatments for him. What did I think? That the progression of his character will continue in ME3 and he will at least try to take that lung transplant. Do I have to explain that this would make him live longer so he could hope for a cure one day? Did you hear about Eupulmos Device? Or how about Shepard being resurrected, Tali adapting to Maleshep, Mordin finding a cure for plague in Omega?
Mass Effect Universe is full of advanced technologies, of course I didn't know that Thane would die.
And let me clarify this: Thane didn't say he had a few months to live. He said: "I should be fine for another eight to twelve months." And he meant he would be fit for a fight, that's a huge difference. He didn't say he would be dead, only not able to fight anymore.
Try to do his romance before stating that it was all right in ME3, ok? You're just wrong on so many levels that I would have to write an essay for you to explain this and I doubt you would read that anyway. Let's not go off topic here.
Riiiiight
Let's just forget that he tells you "I'm dying" when you first meet him. Some people on this board have very selective memory.
Speaking of selective memory, why is it that "I'm dying" seems to be the ONLY line of dialogue people remember about Thane? Makes sense though as even the most nit-picky of this game gets a big blindspot when it comes to how his character was handled. Anyway here are things fans of Thane didn't know would happen after finishing ME2.
No one knew he was going to jump on a sword after one conversation.
No one knew his illness would magically transform into a brand new one in-between games.
No one knew his original writer would be replaced.
No one knew said new writer would forget he was a LI right to the last minute.
No one knew that there would be NO VARIABLES if he had his own subplot in ME3.
No one knew he wouldn't have his own side mission.
No one knew you could “pick the wrong LI” in a series that values choices.
No one knew that their LI choice would have non-existent content compared to others.
No one knew a letter from ME2 DLC written by Thane would be copied and pasted into ME3. And that his fans would be expected to be grateful that they at least got something that didn’t make his death so emotionless and disconnected for a femshep that romanced him. Even though it was the same letter word for word and this was supposed to make up for the fact there was no difference during a romanced and unromanced death scene.
No one knew he would definitely die in ME3 without choice since his original writer said himself he left thane’s story OPEN. That and treatment was made available plus he was given a long time frame in ME2 to live.
No one knew Bioware SUPPORTING THE CURE CAMPAIGN meant they weren’t actually supportive of the idea.
No one knew out of all the impossible situations that the mass effect universe stated would take YEARS TO ACHIEVE (genophage, quarian adaption etc) Thane’s space version of cystic fibrosis would be the one thing they wouldn’t create a solution for.
No one knew Thane would become a red shirt (or a Jenkins)
I could go on but it’s pointless, I’m just mad cos he died right? Sorry to derail but for the OP's question. Kaidan, Garrus and Liara got the best content out of everyone but Garrus is my favourite LI and IMO had the best pacing and best pay off.
