What is there to defend? Shepard doesn't own him. He is his own man.

Generally people, y'know, tell you they broke up with you before starting to date someone else and having a child with them.

My point was never to equate Oghren's suffering with Hespith's, but merely to show that Branka destroyed the lives of everyone around her. She also caused the deaths of the couple hundred other members of her house in her mad quest for the Anvil.

The Anvil of the Void questline doesn't require Hespith to be in a relationship with Branka, but it does emphasize the depravity of her actions - that she would not only throw the other members of her house to the darkspawn horde, but her own lover as well. It's not to make some insane argument that all lesbian relationships are DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMED to fail.

She's a horrible person, no doubt, I'm just saying, even if we say she did something bad to Oghren, what she did to the people she took with her and her own lover is so far removed from the bounds of sanity and morality than it's as close to evil as DA:O gets without being a darkspawn.

agreed. It's not even like he threw her an email or anything. Just left her in the dark.

Too bad such progressive views of cheating have never been employed in Jacob's defense, as he could sure use it...

I'm not sure if this is aimed at me. I've never said anything bad about Jacob.

"Fair enough." You know how vindictive people on these forums are, surely.

Well it wouldn't be cheating if he broke up with her before hand so whatever else they couldn't get mad about that *shrugs*.

Will there be entire pages dedicated to describing the fabulous clothes?

Jacob was too broke to die and thus he knew Shepard would kill him if he left her

Thus he clung to the shadows like a coward and fathered a child with some random Cerberus Tech.

Cookie for whomever gets that refrence.

I can appreciate the situation with Jacob because I know what's it like to create a character that you hope people will like but no one does.

The fact is that only about six people ever romanced Jacob - most fans made him the butt of jokes - so it wasn't really worth the resources to make him a squad mate or carry the relationship forward into ME3.

But he's still someone's imaginary creation - almost like your own child, in a way - so the devs throw their sad Frankenstein's monster a bone in the form of a pregnant girlfriend and call it a day, assuming that no one will really care one way or another.

The furor over ME3 being what it was, however, pushed these issues into the spotlight and aggravated people further. If the ending hadn't been so badly-handled, the reaction to Jacob's cheating today might have been "Jacob who?"

And good on you for doing that. But I think your numbers combined wouldn't fill a donut shop.
