What do you think is the most poorly written scene in the ME series?

I'm thinking about when they blow up the dreadnought in the very beginning, that's like a two story drop it seems. Shepard just gets right up. Then the geth dreadnought again much later, at least another story, yet that elevator drop will kill you! Then again on thessia (just happens to grab the wall? Seriously?)

Forgot that one. They were pretty over the top with these scenes. Even when I played it the first time I was pretty much WTF each time one of these falls happened since shepard just gets up and runs.
Then there's the whole getting hit with a reaper laser only to have some armor burned off. That's blows all credibility out the window. No wonder so many backed indoctrination theory. If you are playing normal or higher, a beam kills you just 15 minutes earlier or so. Now you get up and crawl away. Please explain that logic to me? What crack pipe were they smoking?

Shepard is immune to the Harbinger beams I guess. During the beam run they can actually go right through you and Shepard remains unscathed.

"Yeah hi shepard. You know how you and liara became lovers when we hunted saren?"
"Yes."
"And when you died she was distraught and did everything she could to find you?"
"Yes."
"And when you came back you rekindled your love?"
"Yes."
"And now it's common knowledge the two of you are together? "
"Yes."
"And even her dad approves of the relationship? "
"Yes."
"And she is waiting over there to probably declare her undying love?"
"Yes."
"You know how we didn't have a thing when we hunted saren? "
"Yes."
"And on horizon I called you a traitor."
"Yes."
"And when the reapers attacked I didn't trust you?"
"Yes."
"And even during the coup I had trouble believing you?"
"Yes."
"And even now we are just about on speaking terms and rebuilding a fragile trust?"
"Yes."
"Fancy getting it on and jumping aboard the kaiden fun wagon?"
"........"

I forgot how weird it is to meet someone on the citadel before the LI of your choice. That's always my first meeting because so many times I clicked the wrong dialogue choice and ended up in a relationship with someone out of the clear blue. And then you have to go back to whatever save you have before that.... for a crappy misunderstanding .

You're trying too hard. :happy:
Still, you did get a snicker out of me. Speaking of which, "fun" and "kaidon" don't really go together. Don't get me wrong, I like him. But he's not the kind of guy I would like to party with. I get the feeling he'd only make the party awkward.

At the party in the Citadel DLC he's very boring. And in the visit you get with him... he cooks...

Kaidan and Liara are the two characters in the series clearly in love with Shepard and you can sense the sexual tension there if you don't romance them.

I'm aware. I actually kind of liked his scene in the apartment. Than again, I like good food and beer. It's the simple things in life that make me happy.
As for the party...yeah. He can be awkward. Sadly, he can still dance better than Shepard.

Who do you think danced best at the party? I'd have to go with Tali. I watched her for quite a while.
Worst? I might say Liara. WTF was that? Some kind of zombie dance? She had some good moves at the casino date.

In ME1 when facing the council for the first time Anderson mentions Shepard's vision.

Watching that reminds me how glad I am that I always kill that council. Target Sovereign first!
Also just seeing that gives me feelings of love for ME1. I played that game so much it's insane. Can't even count how many characters I had.

Quick question, if we got a lot of the intel that gave you bonuses in Liara's quarters in the first run of a game, what happens to them in the second one? Right now I'm on the second run with this character and there's nothing listed for upgrades.
It's one of those things you have to re-acquire.

The only things that carry over is credits, weapon upgrades that were purchased and armor upgrades. If you have your weapons at level five, you can now increase them to level ten

And what's even more amazing is that it does nothing to that rock wall or the ground -- it doesn't even smolder. I want whatever that wall is made of for my ship's armor. If the Quarians built a bunker out of that stuff I think they'd be just fine.
This is why I said Mass Effect is an Arnold Movie made into a video game. It's got the one liners. It's got the ridiculous jumps. The interrupts. The bad dialogue. And the action. All that's missing is the thick Austrian accent.

I felt myself cringing everytime Liara opened her mouth, not sure if it was the dialogue. the delivery, or the shaking I get everytime I see something blue in ME
I forgot how bad her dialogue is when you have her as a squaddie. She is not a fun squaddie at all. At least James is pretty amusing and since I can detonate my own biotics, I think I'm going to run with him now. She's just not fun at all.
