I'm still a fan of Stag > Chambers > Traynor for one of my FemSheps, silly shower scene notwithstanding.


The galaxy map is the perfect place to pick up chicks. I mean, just picture it. Shepard's standing above everyone, waving her hands around directing Joker with the map like some sort of cosmic maestro. Don't tell me you wouldn't swoon at that.

Hm. Now that you mention that, maybe that Shepard's just lazy. Proximity infatuation.

Hey, Shepard's a busy guy or gal. They don't have the time to go wandering around the ship for romance.

Traynor I can understand. Chambers not so much. I hate shrinks.

One of my Shepards succumbs to a sort of Florence Nightingale effect for aquarium enthusiasts.

That, and that particular Shep just finds her ...

Now, I've done every romance in ME except the guy-on-guy ones (MaleShep/Kaidan, MaleShep/Cortez), though that's just because I don't really want to see any guy-on-guy action on my tv. I'm all for gay rights and everything, but that doesn't mean I'm ok with watching it.

Back on topic: I think that if BW didn't make Jacob cheat on FemShep, it would have been a great romance. Not as good as FemShep/Garrus, but still up there.

I tend to feel a bit sorry for FemShep in the romance category, because out of the 5 LI's available from ME1 and ME2, only 3 three actually make it through ME3. Then Traynor is added in ME3 too.

Think about it: MaleShep has 7 romances in the entire trilogy, none of which are scripted to end in tragedy no matter what. FemShep has 6 romances and 2 end abruptly in ME3. So, technically, FemShep only has 4 romances.

In the next ME, they should do the romances similar to how they were done in DA2. Nearly everyone is a possible LI for male or female Hawke, so you don't have an imbalance in romances just because you chose to play as one gender rather than the other.

Well, you can set Tali up to kill herself. That's a somewhat tragic end to that romance. I do think FemShep didn't get the same options as the others. I didn't really care for the romance angles in DA2. I'm more a fan of characters having fleshed out backstories and personalities. I don't like the idea of sexual preferences changing just so the protagonist can get his/her booty. If a character is gay or bi, that's fine with me, so long as it makes sense with who they are. I didn't like how Anders suddenly became homosexual if you played a Male Hawke, and straight if you played a female Hawke.

Unfortunately the current system is quite limited (e.g. Tali will romance any guy named Shepard no matter how ugly, xenophobic or violently insane) so I feel that making everyone bi is less silly than arbitrarily singling out sex to determine romantic compatibility.

I'd still take it over suddenly making a character gay so the protagonist can get some action from him/her. Isabela was established as a bi character, so her going after either Hawke was fine. Anders just suddenly turned gay.

I just think everyone in that game was Hawke-sexual.

I hope you're not seriously suggesting that romances should be locked off if the game decides your player character is too ugly. Surely you realize the problems with that?

Yeah, you can also set up Miranda and Jack to die in tragic ways. Well, Jack's death is less tragic and more lazy.

I agree with you for the appearance aspect.

But I fo think being a rabid xenophobe should lick off Tali

Perhaps it should. I personally wouldn't mind that. But then, doubtless hordes of people would shriek that taking the rude dialogue options is 'pointless' and demand half the crew be impressed by Shepard saying aliens are stupid and rudeness in general.

Even if said crew was in fact alien? I doubt that.

As much as I love Bioware games, they don't have a real good history of making strong male characters as romance partners. Not just ME. The writers must think all males must be emotionally broken to be romatically involved. In DA2, for instance, Fenris and Anders are your only 2 male options. Both are seriously damaged goods in the emotional department.

I would challenge Bioware in the next game to actually produce a male LI that is you know....
emotionally stable, likeable, strong, and an all-round good person.

Kaidan didn't strike me as being emotionally unstable. He's a total boyscout and stubborn to believe Shepard, but he's not really broken emotionally. Garrus is another example of a strong character, and despite the circumstances of ME3, does not really have much baggage at all.

You're overestimating the BSN. Good options cause the crew to like you while bad options lock off romances? Yes, people would complain about it.

Jacob isn't emotionally unstable either, he's just boring

Tell me more about what is good and what is bad.
