Femshep romancing Jacob in ME2 gets the best. Of course it wasn't Liara's so it was shot down with a planet defense canon in ME3.

Romancing Garrus feels like having sex with your best friend. It feels stupid. He should stay a bro.

And MaleShep gets the better slice. FemShep just has tons of lesbian romances.
Maybe because everyone here still has their V-card and still likes to see two chicks do it (it doesn't work for me anymore sadly), or maybe there is an honest amount of players that actually like the romance arc and are homosexuals themselves and choose that romance because they like RPing. Idk.

Whether any certain romance option is "better" is clearly subjective.

It depends on what you like and what you are looking for. My fav is Femshep and Liara as Jennifer Hale and Ali Hillis have the best chemistry together as voice actors.


This is how I feel too. It made the LotSB mission immensely more satisfying for me, as well as some of the stuff Shep and Liara say during some missions. Having another squadmate tease along with you makes it funnier.

1. Straight MShep
2. Lesbian Femshep
3. Straight Femshep
4. Gay MShep

There are so many random Lesbian romances in ME, I kind of get the vibe that they were only thrown in there because the Bioware writers thought the fans would be able to masturbate furiously to it. Almost all of them (With the notable exception of Liara, who IMO got too much screen time) are just SEXSEXSEXSEX. If they were doing it for story purposes, it wouldn't have taken them 3 games to put in a gay male romance.

My least favorite defense Bioware has ever used has GOT to be "Liara doesn't count as a lesbian romance, she's asari". FFS, she has ******!

 Tali isn't as charismatic as Garrus, and really not as memorable dialog wise, so between the ME2 exclusive romances Garrus wins. So Femshep wins that one, but from there on its like Broshep all the way. The interactions between Male Shepard and Miranda > than Female Shepard and Jacob 1000 times over, and the fact that Jacob basically dumps you without so much as a phonecall in ME3 is kind of crushing. Thane vs Jack? Tough one, but i give it to Jack, her appearance in ME3 felt more weighty than Thanes despite his noble sacrifice.  Kaiden vs Ashley, I NEVER ROMANCED KAIDEN! EVER!!  I knew from the minute i saw him, that he was going to be someone I did not use or like. in 50,000 years the inhabitants of Virmire will find Kaiden's hairdo fossilized. Win goes to Broshep. 

The bisexual relationships and same sex relationships dont really factor into my decision.

Honestly, I think both have romances that make it worth to play both of them. I would recommend looking at the different characters and finding one(s) that appeals to you and going from there. Just because A has more choices means nothing if the one that appeals to you is in B. More choices does not mean better.

Personally I enjoy Ashley with my male Shepard and Liara with my female Shepard but it all comes down to what you would enjoy. For me, they are both equally good.

I may be biased since I just finished it but I really like the Femshep/ Garius romance. It is less about sex and more about relationship since biology prohibits sex.

Based on what I have seen, Thane's looks to hold promise.

On the plus side for males:

Jack
Tali
Miranda
I don't like Ashley, I won't count her.

On the plus side for femshep:

Sam
Garrus
Kaidan

Each have their own appeal. Comparing which one's better would be comparing apples with pears.

Spoiler

Slapping a certain someone in Citadel DLC has its very own appeal...

Maleshep even has better gay romances than Femshep's straight ones (although Femshep has alot more lesbian romances, I guess they were trying to appeal to their straight male players who think lesbians are hot).

Ashley and Jack are the most interesting romance options for male Shep, IMO.

I feel i have to fight the urge to go after Jack if i want to stay faithful to Ashley.

I'd argue quality over quantity.

However you have made a great point.

That's a cute image, but I think it needs some editing in light of the Citadel DLC. Add Javik and James to FemSheps' side, add Samara to both sides, remove the cross from Thane's image and replace the word 'Scrapped' with 'Slapped' for Jacob.

Without a doubt, FemShep is superior.

One night stands are not "romances", so Javik and James do not count. Especially since the content with James is actually kinda revolting and I think Javik is just trolling Shep.

BroShep + Ashley. Patience and conversation REALLY pays off.

Romancing Javik just seems like all kinds of wrong for some reason lol. In my cycle, we used to engage in hand to hand combat after having carnal relations. Prepare yourself, Commanda.

If they don't count, then neither do Kelly or Allers. They were equally shallow, but with the added bonus of being lesser characters to begin with.

This isn't mine, I just found it on a thread a little while back.  However, it does need a little bit of tailoring after Citadel. Maybe put something for one-night stands?

I agree, actually. I don't really care how many ManShep gets since FemShep has access to two of the best romances content wise (Liara and Garrus) and one of the most emotional (Thane w/Citadel DLC). Quality over quantity. And, although I've never played it, I hear Traynor's romance is awesome as well.  Posted Image

FemShep wins in my books simply by the fact that she is the only one that can romance Garrus. Posted Image A romance that has one of the best arcs in the whole damn series. Friends to lovers is so awesome and something that I have never seen in any Bioware game. But maybe I'm biased, I only play femshep and Garrus is my favorite character.


And this is why I think Garrus has the best romance across the trilogy.

You have to at least KNOW garrus for 1 game before you can romance him...In ME2, if for some reason you didn't recruit Garrus in ME1, you can't romance him which to me anyway indicates that you had to be friends first. In ME3, if you hadn't romanced him in ME2, you can't start a new romance with him which makes sense as he's totally focused on the war.

I like this romance arc...of all the available romances, it feels the most natural.

Well male shep certainly has the greatest variety of possible romances, but my male sheps always go for Tali and my Fem sheps always for Garrus, so personally it comes down to a debate between who i prefer Tali or Garrus, and thats a debate thats gonna go on for a looooong time, but as they start a romance between themselves if neither is chosen, maybe i have to hope Shep can talk them both into a threesome

For me, and only my opinion of course...

It's Male Shepard who gets the best (and most) romances; and ultimately the best one is with Miranda. This is coming from a long time Ashley/Shepard player. The scene at the end of the last DLC sold me on the Miranda/Shepard relationship. The voice acting was spot on / the character animations were spot on. It felt right.

For FemShep, I actually "started" a romance with Kaidan but he was "lost" on Virmire, and played her as if she was missing him throughout the rest of the trilogy.

Again, my opinion on this, but the Jacob hate is really just misdirected. If I can go off-tangent from the OP for a moment; the main problem with Jacob, isn't actually Jacob: It's FemShep. She comes off TOO strong on every conversation with him, as if she hadn't seen the male species before. I actually blame the voice director/coach on this because the delivery is all wrong. And when Jacob does actually "return the favor" he comes off the same way and THAT feels too strong as well.
