All I hear is complaints, he was probably one of my favorite characters on the ship to talk to. (or, more accurately, in his case, listen to.)

I know people are upset at his lack of a dialogue tree, and I do realize it's because he's a tacked on DLC, I thought it played well into how his character worked anyway. He's a mercenary, he doesn't care what you think, he's just there to run a suicide mission and get paid. His stories were interesting, and I enjoyed his dialogues during missions.

I -really- want to see him as an optional character in ME3.

I liked Zaeed. Sure he's a crazy maniac but somehow he reminds of someone I just can't put my finger on it...

I didn't dislike him, but nothing about the character compelled me to care much about him either.



He's kind of an afterthought and I am indifferent to him.

thats doubtful. DLC characters will likely not affect ME3 because not everyone will have them, just liek Bring Down the Sky played absolutely no part in ME2. Zaeed is okay as a squad member, but garrus or grunt are far better choices for an assault role then he.

Wasn't bad for what he was. Most bioware characters appear initially to be a stereotype, and then you learn more about them and there's more there then initially appears. Zaeed is "gritty human bounty hunter", not much more.

He was a favorite of mine, and thus why I thought I'd honor him by sending him to lead a fire squad. Unfortunately, I oversaw the blatant possibility of him getting shot. So he's gone now. Still, his badassery is of the highest standard, and I like that. He probably places second, right after Garrus.

As far as a character went, he was awesome.



However, he obviously was the most under-developed, has very little conversation, and was very vague and general in things.



If his character was to the level of the normal squad (pre-dlc), I would assume he would be more interesting.

I liked him, rare to get a true badass veteran like him. Now that the Blue Suns are dead he can rebuild a new mercenary empire called the Mandalorians, and become the new Mandalore.

I thought he was awesome. Great abilities, AR and Sniper too?! classic. Medium to long range fighter FTW. Actually, Garrus and Zaeed compliment each other well. I mean, they don't sit around complimenting each other, but you know. So does Garrus and Thane.

I actually heard a reference to Bring Down the Sky on the newsfeed. Something about a prayer service being led by the late Kate Bowman's dad.

I loved Zaeed.



When you do Jacobs loaylty mission his statement about 'probably chewin' the walls' was so good.



Zaeed made me laugh more than any other character by his one liners on missions.

This was as full paragon with him loyal.



Only other one who made me laugh was Scotty in engineering.

I cared about saving him more than some of my crew...

I missed the dialogue tree style conversation that other characters have one one hand, but on the other it was nice just to sort of converse...



I didn't use him very often on my first playthrough, but he's getting some screen some time on insanity.

Zaeed was good, not Shale good, but good.

Yes, so he'll carry over in ME3. But he'll be covered in armor, so you won't know for sure it's him.

I liked Zaeed, but he was underused.

It's nice to have him, but he's one of those characters you bring once and then ditch him on the ship

I like bringing Zaeed to go get Jack. When the turian warden makes a comment about bounty hunters being unreliable, he gets all pissed off.

I don't think any of the DAO chars set any bars anywhere...  Except maybe Alister.

He reminded me of that nasty gunnery sgt in the movie Platoon. Not a nice guy at all, a born killer who liked what he did a little too much. If you gotta do something for a living, you might as well enjoy it. Loved him.

I really didn't mind the lack of conversation. I feel that everything that needed to be said was said. I look at it as Bioware experimenting with a different way of telling a characters story, and it worked for me. It was refreshing to hear his tales unfold, without it being a lame 20 questions dialog. It was a nice break, too many dialog wheel 20 questions things, make me feel like I am pestering the crew to death with question after question, this worked for me.

I liked him, but he could have been so much better. Makes me wonder if "Kasumi" will be the same or if she'll have real dialogue...

There is a blurb about it on the Galactic News if you completed it, complete with details about decisions you made.  The planet you saved was Terra Nova if you're wondering.

I thought he was okay. A bit of a throwaway without much depth or originality, but not terrible.



I mainly loved him for his Firefly references. "Let's go be big god***** heroes" and naming his gun "Jessie" (just like Jayne named his gun "Vera").
