They're really tough to go through, because I knew it would be the last time I would see most of my squadmates.

Definitely one of the most powerful moments in any game I've played...

I was never one of those huge Garrus fans that everyone seems to be but after the conversation that my Shepard had with him at the ending...Image IPB

I think if people could accept that she's always "loved" Shepard (regardless if you ever romanced her) instead of thinking of her as a stalker/creeper, then the "gift" would be easier to accept for those that didn't romance her.


It happens in real life all the time. I'm sure many here can think of someone (in the back of their minds) who they've loved, and still have some love for, even though they could never be together.


She loves Shep.....but will always be his/her friend even if she could never have him/her



I don't think that is the case, actually.

If unromanced I think Liara just looks at Shepard as a very close friend. The gift scene is very different depending on whether Shepard is in a relationship with Liara or not.

"Go out there and give them hell...you were born to do this."

That was in the launch trailer and it still gets me every time. Especially Shepard's response if you take the Paragon interrupt.

What were your favorite farewells?

I thought Liara and Garrus had the most emotional goodbyes, though I quite liked Javik's as well. I had the version where he intends to take his own life where his squadmates are buried.

I think we were supposed to imagine the old crew fighting.

All I can see is Jacob taking hits and going down and being as entirely useless as he was in ME2.


What? Nooooo, don't you remember him telling us how his "kill count was off the scale"? Unless he was lying. Which he probably was.

Some of them were good, and some were just downright terrible.

Agree. This was the emotional climax of the game for me and it was very, very well done.

"There is no Shepard without Vakarian".

The feels, bro, the feels...

Not for me as some of my fave characters got reduced to phone calls and i was pretty dissappointed in the whole game up until that point with cameo appearances so the earth
Mission didnt do it for me and the " goodbye's" are part of that......i think it depends on which characters you have affiliation with most

I'm curious, how does it change?....Liara and Shep kiss in the gift scene?

Yeah, and if the romance is carried over from ME1, you get an "I love you."

I think you can even be mean enough to her so that she doesn't even offer you the gift, but I mean.. come on! :innocent:

Yeah it's far more professional if your an ass to her.  I've done it,more then once. Which is why Id on't get the complaints about the gift scene.

If you take the gift and you did not romance Liara, you get a hug from her. Slightly platonic, slightly not. Which worries me...I still think she has a crush on Shepard whether you like it or not.

I'm not sure if you can actually....My Shep didn't pick her up until after Virmire in ME1, didn't do LotSB and though he does speak to her on the Citadel to encourage her to speak with her 'father' (I love that 'Anthropocentric bag of dicks' line.....:D.....)....but that's the last time he speaks with her and he still gets the offer....just doesn't get the 'Time Capsule' scene.

And thank you for answering my question Zazzerka....appreciated....^_^

Oh, I believe she does with the way she snuggles into him.

The only thing I can say I actively dislike about it is the completely pointless turret scene, especially coming after Garrus (and romanced Ashley for my male Shepard) goodbyes and right before Liara/Javik (mostly if you convince him to keep living)/Wrex/Tali.

It's so remarkably out of place and adds nothing to the overall scene.

I do really enjoy the goodbyes though.

Same. Couldn't let the COD crowd get bored, though.

No problem. I'm uhh.. kinda an expert on this kind of thing. ;)

Except I could be wrong about the gift thing. I seriously thought there was a way to stop her even offering it.

Yeah, some of them were very well done, others not so much. Romanced Garrus goodbye scene is one of the better moments of ME3. Too bad they managed to pretty much kill all the feelings I got from the scenes in the events that followed later.

And yes, the turret scene is beyond ridiculous.

I could try and get an answer for you....gotta admit, I have the perfect Shep/Liara history to try....:crying:.....I don't like him being a complete b*stard....but will see how I manage a run in which it's renegade all the way with Liara and complete ignorence to her and let you know what happens....that's if I can stomach seeing it all the way through though.

The worse is that after the end, all of this is clearly forgotten for me...

So much waste...

A pity, really...

JPR out!

I still get the chills/goosebumps like I did on my very first playthrough (seriously). The moment is so tense. The atmosphere is surreal (the music helps). It's gripping, to say the least. They were pitch perfect in my opinion.

Each and every character brought a smile to my face and broke my heart at the same time (I know, real "manly")

Vega calling me "Loco", Ashley: "seems like it always comes down to this.", telling Garrus to remember to duck, the entire convo with Javik is pure gold, Wrex never broke character even before the battle of all time, EDI's display of emotion, "Tali Zorah vas Normandy".....Liara's "gift" (with Vigil music)





Who agrees or has similar emotions/feelings about this specific part of the game?





(No drama or trolling pertaining to the Ending, "pretty" please? Let's have a serious yet laid back discussion. And if this particular segment didn't "get" you....feel free to share what moment(s) did)


Agree. The final farewells are indeed some of the best moments of the game.

Not really. If you romanced her, you're facing eachother and you kiss.....if you didnt romance her, she's standing next to you and puts her head on your shoulder.


And even if you didn't romance her in ME1, its quite apparent she still has those sort of feelings. In ME2, its blatantly obvious from the moment when you get to Illium and walk into her office.....and especially during LotSB
