I LOVE that song.

Seriously, I would not mind a coin operated boyfriend. Or battery operated. Wait, nevermind. Been there.

One could think of pixelated guys as coin operated boys.  You pay BioWare and hey presto!  Hot aliens!

Indeed.

Thane Krios is mine. There are many copies like him, but this one is mine.

Should I? Naaaa, too easy.

Well, meta-wise, not all squaddies are created equal.  Though I always did wonder why Ash, Kaidan, Miri, and Jacob are considered the "leading NPCs" when Liara is the one who spans both games, is very plot-important, can't die, and pretty much serves the role of "leading NPC" on her own.

I agree that everyone should get more character development in ME3.  But expecting everyone to get the same as Liara is IMO unrealistic.  She IS more plot important (in the same sense that Alistair and Morrigan were more plot important) and that's just the way it is.  

I did say "comparable" treatment, ma'am.

Go ahead. I can take it.

@raven...I'll be good. Just got me thinking (run!) about that old addage "been there, done that" and then it went other places (as it does) and now my nose is bleeding from your calibration contributions.

Fun fact: typing "thane krios peanut butter" into the Google IMAGE search bar brings up the front covers of a bunch of romance novels.

Coincidence? I think NOT!

I took "comparable" to mean "relatively similar screen time and word budget."   Which sadly I don't think will happen for all the squaddies.

And maybe raven typed in "peanut butter" because Nutella is already ManHawke's thing.

I love you, Hana. I really do.

Liara has had some significant character development throughout. Her personality in ME1 fit perfectly with her role as the lost daughter of a rogue matriach who knows a great deal about the Protheans. In ME2, the sudden change of heart comes as no surprise considering what she's been through since the Normandy's destruction and Shepard's disappearance. LOTSB pretty much addressed all these issues and Liara is now, well, Liara.

That's the definition of character development. I just hope other characters receive comparable treatment by ME3.

Then what does that mean for the other characters? Even though Liara was more important in ME1 I didn't feel like she recieved any more screen time than Ashley or Kaidan. In ME2 she clearly has though.

Two questions are to follow --

1. Should you maybe create a separate thread for the collab to draw more attention (Developers also)?
2. Did you send a link to Keythe already?

[Fiery Phoenix]

Hana said she'd email the picture to the developers, Jelly. And yes, she posted it on Keythe's page on Facebook.

[hanar05]

I'm gonna snail-mail it

I forgot to mention how great I think this looks.

[Fiery Phoenix]

Snail-mail? Even better!

I'd say Liara got more screen time in ME1, provided you got all her content.  She gets her own recruiting mission, which no other character does.  And she dominates the major conversations between missions about the Protheans and Reapers.

As for ME3, I don't know what it means other than some NPCs are more plot-important than others, and their screen time is likely to reflect that difference.  

[JECWSU]

Thats true. I also noticed her love scene was slightly different and a little longer. While Ashley and Kaidans where just basically the same. I guess we will have to wait until ME3 comes out to see just what they do with the other characters.
