It's just that there's an obvious connection between Samara and Shepard, and it should be fully explored in ME 3.

Definitely. When she rejects you, it kind of struck me as "I would, but there is something holding me back" 
The only thing they really need to tweak is the code, which is central to her life. They could do something like making her loyalty to shepard greater than the code, since Morinth is dead.

Liara's been my no. 1 love interest, but I won't lie if they make Samara or even Shiala available, I would be heavily tempted to alter my direction.

that's the thing, either they change the circumstances globally (The Code, Shepard's persistence etc.) or internally (Samara's feelings). The latter is more difficult to write for, the former is the cheap/easy way out, which do you think Bioware will take? :whistle:

The  Code doesn't prohibit romantic relations.  Samara turned Shepard down for many reasons, not the least of which was her grief about killing Morinth, which she was in the process of handling.   As we've stated numerous times, Samara has a good reason to stick around for a Paragon Shepard.   Nothing in the galaxy has the potential to threaten more innocent lives than the Reapers.

I have this grand vision of a Bioware writer putting on their Thinking Cap and brainstorming an unspoken romance for Samara  &  Shepard in ME wherein there are no lines that directly address it, only subtle things, like facial expressions, camera-work, and seemingly-innocuous physical contact.

Hopefully it's a mix of the two, like Shepard somehow does something that changes Samara's feelings

Well if it happens and they take the cheap/easy way out, then that is exactly how it will come across, and it will remove the essence of it IMO.

@York

Bioware will need to breed a vividly talented writer to create an unspoken romance for Samara that melts and burns in any players soul. Any player who admires her like we do atleast. The feature of every ME romance should be initial intrigue, emphatic curiosity and emotional embrace. They are about half the way there with Samara. Not every romance has these elements imo, the best ones do, but understandably I'm not gonna go over which of them do.

I don't invision it right now, but I have not really thought about it much.  I can see your point though.  Could you do it?  If so, you probably can't describe what needs to be done just by typing it out in a post I suppose?

I think Samara is the best romance, because she makes you feel like the relationship is real. I also love how you realize Sheperd is a sleaze if you push for sex

I can't describe it entirely, and I have no experience with formatting narratives in to script-form.  I just have vague ideas.

We know that Bioware's programmers are familiar with camera-work trying to convey to the player an emotion or sentiment a character is feeling.  The Jackolytes claim that when Jack is talking to Shepard about Murtock, the camera focuses on her and circles her.  Shepard is pushing, and Jack feels trapped, but she doesn't push back, which is something remarkable, knowing Jack.

What I'm talking about is something like their personalities, not their characters, interacting with one another.  Samara expects people to move out of the way when she walks past and typically, they do.  But what if Shepard doesn't move?  I think of Samara's response as being her putting a hand on Shepard's arm and looking in to his eyes, and then stepping around him, or Shepard meeting her gaze, and then stepping to the side.

All of this assumes that Shepard did express his feelings for her in ME2.

Using that word, "sleaze", in this thread, makes some people feel bad for having pursued the romance options with Samara.  :(
