I would buy the Liara/Shadow Broker DLC but if they came out with something else I would be just as happy. I just want them to give us some RPG type DLC where it isn't all combat but more talking and playing the game like... let's say... a RPG.

Hey just wanted to show a detail out of my work in progress "Samara-Liara" pic. I wanted to get your opinion on Samara before I keep going :) Her accessorys I'm gonna do in detail after im sure the face is finished!

Dont really know how this image thingie works...so hope you see it :D :

I think her headtentacles still need some work. :)


This is very good.  I like the way you've detailed the little "flares" where the darker color of Samara's headcrest dips in to the lighter color of Samara's face.

The only thing I can think to say is that her nostrils are a little big, and that the color of the area where the human ear would be, if she was human, is a little dark.

Given what I've seen on YouTube regarding what's already built-in the game regarding Liara/SB, my expectations are rather low regarding any DLC. I don't expect Liara to be recruitable, for instance. Casey Hudson already stated they planned on using the ME1 characters in the ME3 plot in an unspecified form, so Liara will still remain a "mission-giver" in ME2.

I suspect the original reason they didn't explore the Liara/SB angle further in ME2 was a timing issue, because the game came out before the complete comic book arc was published. With that out of the way, they can tweak that side-mission to preserve the comic book continuity. The DLC may have some good RPG aspects, I just don't expect it to have a dramatic impact on the main story arc. BW will be using the VA already recorded, so no big surprises there.

We'd love to see optional, character-oriented DL side-missions; the main obstacle being balancing the cost of additional VA vs potential revenue generated from the DLC. I suspect this would limit any character-oriented DLC to the more popular ones, unfortunately for Samara.Image IPB

Did they bring Kasumi's VA in for the Kasumi's Stolen Memory DLC?   None of her lines in the actual DLC were on the disc.   Either put junk data on the disc and recorded the new lines before the game was released but after the game had gone gold, or they recorded the new lines after the game was released by bringing her VA back in.

I don't remember who did the VA for Kasumi... I guess it could also depend on how expensive the relevant VA talent would be (as well as his/her availability). I can see Tali or Garrus being good sellers on the DLC market, given their popularity.

I suppose Maggie Baird wouldn't be too expensive to contract for a DLC expansion. Being a singer, she already does a fair bit of studio work so the logistics are not too onerous. The motion capture can be done with anybody. It's on the sales side we have less information. EA seems interested in making DLC a part of their business model but we have little information regarding the popularity of story-driven DLC so far.

In all honesty, I am not expecting much DLC with any real substance to it. What did we get in ME1? Bring Down the Sky and Pinnacle Station. Pinnacle Station was a joke to me.

I want an expansion.

Here's your expansion:  Some Protheans escaped on an emergency craft and brought a Seeker Swarm with them!    This Seeker Swarm is special and erases the short-term memories of its victims!   The Seeker Swarm is unleashed on the Normandy!   As a result,  you must do all of your teammembers' loyalty missions again!  Also, 1 new Visor and Heavy Weapon that shoots bees.

Honestly, I can see that happening. Here's my guess on what the Liara DLC will be if it exists:
Liara: I think I found the shadow broker, just go to this location and kill these mercenaries and hack the computer
Shepard: I should go
*10 minutes of action with no dialogue later*
Shepard: I killed the mercenaries
Liara: Go hack some more terminals / kill some more mercenaries
Shepard: Done. 
Liara: Lets go get the SB
*20 minutes of action with 1 or 2 meaningless dialogues, Liara kills shadow broker*
Liara: I'm going back to illium to continue to ignore our past romance. Kthxbai.

and somewhere along the lines you get a new gun, armor, etc.

That is why I played a male Shepard from ME1 that didn't romance anyone from the first game.  Now I can do three different playthroughs (Jack, Miranda and Kelly... but no Tali because that romance is just creepy).

I like to joke around.  Though I am disgusted with some of that stuff in the Tali main thread.  That and some of those guys can ruin threads by constantly bringing her into other threads that have nothing to do with her.  Also.. I find it creepy that she went from like 17 to 24 in a matter of two years.  I just finished a ME1 playthrough and there was a clear difference in the age or her in ME1 and ME2.  It was most definitely a major shift... like going from 17 to 24.  That is just creepy to me (Shepard was like her High School teacher... ick).... they should be called Taliphiles.
