Omfg, that'd be win. I think they'd have to do that whole switchy thing. You know where you tilt the DVD or whatever to one side and it'll show Shep + Liara + Kaidan and if you tilt it to the other, it'll show Shep + Liara + Ashley. You know, for fairness sake XD.


Ash was already in the ME1 cover. I'm sure her fans would be reasonable enough to give this one to Kaidan.


A Liara + Kaidan cover would rock. They werent even on the back of the ME1 cover..

I hope that after we complete the mission in the DLC that we get the option to call her up to Shep's cabin. :)

Agreed, but the more important thing it that it includes the romance plot through out.

Ok so despite my earlier ramblings bout people not having patience, I got to thinking after that about how some of the DLC talk has been of 'chapters' and what not... and then got to thinking, about how we got the whole 'after the suicide mission' section. So am now in agreement that they might tie up the whole SB thing in 'post end' chapter DLCs.

My only concern is, if we tie up a lot of stuff in DLCs for ME2, what is going to be left for ME3 to do other than kick reaper butt?


I don't know, that in and of itself is going to take a lot to acomplish, I mean we are expecting to do something galatci civiliazation hasn't ever been able to do.

That's why I am hoping the Liara expansion is large and epic.  I don't want her story arc to be shallow and overshadowed by the bigger story in ME3.  If we get the chance prior to ME3 to wrap up her issues with the SB and have the chance for Shepard to put their romance (if any) back on track we can head into ME3 ready to take on the real threats.  

Liara fans (really all ME1 LI fans) will already be missing an entire second chapter to their story, it would be a real shame to see no character development for these wonderful folks from ME1 througout the entire last 2/3's of the series.

I think a DLC centred around Liara taking down the Shadow Broker would be quite nice. Unless they are planning to expose him in ME3, which is possible, but i think it would fit into a decent sized DLC more comfortably than being a side quest in the final game.



My guess is that Kasumi will come first either way, maybe Liara DLC later in the year.

I reckon that the Liara DLC will happen once the final issue of Redemption is released, so hopefully from April onwards. Can't wait!

I would write to bioware requesting a 15 hour dlc where we take steps to reveal and take down the SB with Liara, as long as she jumped on the ship afterwords.

Yes.  DLC please.  Something with meaningful conversation that advances Liara's character, and your relationship if your Shep romanced her in ME1.  Heck maybe insert a few extra dialog choices when you talk to her on Illium in the main story; something that at leasts lets you acknowledge that the relationship is there.

There just needs to be much more explanation for Liara's dramatic character shift from ME1 to ME2.  And I sure as hell hope that once the Shadow Broker is taken care of that she reverts more to her old cute self.  Not all the way mind you (most of the way), but this cold facade she is putting up [it damn well better be a facade] is heartbreaking to watch.

Ideally all 3 ME1 romances would possibly get their own DLC to expand upon their character, but I can think of a way for the Liara DLC to handle all 3.

If you romanced Liara, you get a message from her and then she is one of your squad mates on the mission.  If you romanced Ash/Kaidan, you get the message from Liara, but then your squad mate is Ash or Kaidan because Liara is "busy."  Not the best of solutions though.

I can't see BioWare not putting out Liara DLC.
They had to notice the mistakes they made by not talking about the relationship as well.
I mean, it seems the whole conversation with her is a set-up for SB/Romance DLC.
I just hope it is massive and epic.

Yeah, so far those worried about Feron "sweeping" Liara off her feet will find he is pretty inept all around. I think she will find herself in the situation similiar to a female Shepard...not too many options other than staying loyal, lol.

Liara reminds me a lot of Arwen in Lord of the Rings (although Arwen never really became "rough").  The question is, will she wait for her "Aragorn" or will she depart into the West!? We will see...


In two years.

Agreed. I've seen alot of people complain about Liara's appearence in ME2, even those who didn't particularly romance or like her. If she is to be quite a main and ifluential character in the trilogy, like I believe, then that needs to be rectified.

Oh I agree, they really need to develop LI's better before 3 so that in 3 we can really focus on closing out the trilogy.  Honestly I'd love to see ME3 work the way I thought ME was originally going to work from the the first commercial I saw.  Remember the one where you're listening to the distress call and then ignore it and go somewhere else?  I thought that was how ME was going to play, you're given the option of helping 2-3 people/places but only have time to help 1, now live with the consequences.  I'd love to see 3 work this way, add a little strategy to the war against the reapers, where do you strike them, who do you sacrifice, who do you save.  Also factor in the ammount of time it takes you to get to the mission, i.e. you accept a mission to go save a colony but then you do a few side missions or some planet exploring, something should be happening to the colony while you are wasting time.

I hope there's an option to kill Liara or bring about her death included with it.

ignore trolls, they like attention. Your response gave him all the motivation he needs to continue to use up other people's oxygen.

Haha, actually it was your response. I had hoped someone would call me a troll for that because it's no different than asking for the option to boink every creature in the galaxy regardless of gender. Yet... they are not trolls? No, never liked Liara. Sorry.

If Liara temporarily joins us in the DLC, would you like to see how she converses with Aria? It was pretty cool in Redemption, and I'd love to see a follow up in the DLC.

I was a little sad when ME didn't turn out that way but it's still probably the best game I've ever played, it's the only game that I've ever actually bought books and comics for.

Actually it has to do with the DLC... perhaps you didn't read it right.

The best possible scenario I can think of would be a seperate mission in which you play as Liara. Something after the comics, but before Shepard's resurrection. Give her her own ship to roam the galaxy in, let it consist of a couple of main missions and a few sidequests/assignments. And any unique gear (armour/weapons) you find could turn up on the Normandy when you next reload your normal ME2 game. Say with an email from Liara saying "Picked this up a while ago, thought it might help" or something along those lines.

They'd even have an easy way of doing it - add Liara as an option to the career screen. When you start a new game, and you can choose to be a standard John Shepard or a custom one, add Liara to that list to allow you to start a Liara DLC playthrough, which could act as a seperate career. If they wanted it to be even more awesome, they could allow you to then import an ME1 file, to set various little universe details - who lived, who died, romance, etc.

I doubt it'll be that good. On the flipside, the absolute worst thing I can imagine would be some pointless mission in your main game, that you activate by visiting Liara again in her office. Go off and do this for me Shepard, then come back, we'll have a little conversation, and that's your DLC. That would utterly suck, no matter what the mission was. I really hope it isn't that bad, but you never know.

Well, think about. 90% of ME2 was tying up stuff for your various teammates. The other 10% was kicking Collector butt. Human colonies are at stake, and I'm stopping 19 year olds from being kidnapped, bombing old abandoned bases, and helping a mother to kill her daughter? All moving stuff, but can you honestly tell me you wouldn't like ME3 to have a little bit more Repear butt kicking and a little less fixing peoples' personal lives? Or at least less emphasis on it? There were more loyalty quests than there were recruitment missions or Collector-plot related missions. Heck, there were only 21 N7 missions in the game, and you know how short each of those can be. It was mostly helping people with their personal stuff, and it had no consequence to the overall plot. Character building is great, but it shouldn't be the whole game.

So to answer your only concern, if the above was a bit tl;dr, if we tie up a whole lot of stuff in DLCs for ME2, ME3 will be a much better game.
