No, problem since I did a ME1 save just for Tali

I know.  That's the easy solution.  That's what I did (except for the Tali thing, she's not my type).

I hate the idea of two npc's fighting over my Shepard.  It's just dumb.

My Li 1 Liara knows,as she's now an info dealer about you cheating. If you cheat with Li 2 Tali they tell you to leave the room and when you come back they tell you they have decided to share you and when you can srr them.

Reason, they already know each other, worked and lived on the same ship. Also Liara may of known Tali had feelings for Shepard. But anyone else they have a big biotic fight over you and the winner decides wether or not to keep you as there lover.

Your ME1 LI will know you cheated mainly because TIM had survelliance equipment all over the Normandy, and he's going to be bitter after you run off with his ship. Not only will they know, they'll have actual video footage of the act.

Especially if you did it in the engine room.

For ease of writing, I'll just write this post as if the characters were real. Too time-consuming to insert the necessary qualifiers, authors' intentions, how characters are presented, etc.!



From Shepard's perspective it's like the next day, everyone else 2 years later. Plus, for Liara in particular, it's known he was DEAD because she rescued his body (which I don't think the Shepard character knows, it's in the comics which I haven't fully read). Given her actions, speaking louder than words, she may expect Shepard to know from Cerberus her role, surprised and hurt he didn't contact her after "awakening" even by a message (she's only on the 2nd set of recruitment missions...), etc. Similarly with Ashley, could have sent a message via the Alliance.



Also (pardon the mild sexism for humorous effect), as anyone with a female SO knows, even if it was IMPOSSIBLE to communicate ("I was dead/stuck on a subway between stations with no cell phone reception/whatever) it's still somehow your fault for having failed to do so...



So presenting characters as having mixed feelings - e.g. Liara, have her actions saving Shepard hurt others, she feels a duty to them, unconsciously "blames" Shepard because rescuing him hurt them, she (or Ashley - ME1 conversation she has strong belief in God) has conflicted religious feelings with Shepard being alive again, whatever the creative people had in mind - makes sense.



Others, even though commenting he was dead (e.g. Tali when first met), may think it was like heart stopped dead, frozen in carbonite dead, whatever. Incidentally, being frozen and exposed to vacuum (and then later body in stasis? I haven't read the whole comic series in which Liara rescues "your" body for Cerberus) actually kind of makes sense, that freezing and vacuum might plausibly preserve cell information, brain matter and neuron connections etc. such that "you" could with nanotechnology be restored with memories. The matter-of-fact way in which characters react to Shepard having RETURNED FROM THE DEAD suggests that in the fictional ME universe, this achievement is a technological breakthrough, but that similar things may have been done before (for shorter-term death/vacuum exposures/whatever).

Oh lord, I will laugh if they pull a DA:O on us. I still laugh when Leliana confronts my Male Mage if I really did sleep with Zevran and if I was.. you know... and my character lied his way through and said "it's Zevran, does he have an excuse for anything?"

What... he was curious...

I sure hope it is not gonna something that though. At least in DA:O it can be called cheating. I am sure Bioware is self aware of what they did in ME2 and do know a lot of people might have jumped boat (and not be brave enough to start a new ME1 game just to have a clean one). Sure they will be consequences, but I doubt it will be hitting you with a bean ball or have you loose both with Nelson laughing at you.

One possible outcome I can see is if you went to a ME2 LI, you will loose the first one. Hopefully they will put several sub outcomes in. Like make some sort of peace with them (Para), blame them (Ren), or be a total twit and end up pissing them off more (maybe even the ME2 LI too) (Uber Ren).

I am just worried they might go in some unfathomable route. It seems from what I read a certain 'hehehe they are cheating! It is gonna bite you back!' attitude from the writers. At this point I fully expect the dialoge option "It is not cheating if..." with Shepard saying, it is not cheating if you are on a break.

It actually does worry me.

[JamieCOTC]

I don't know about Ash or Kaiden, but in Liara's case I would bet money that if you cheat (or reject her for whatever reason) she will go over to the dark side.

Yes, there are reprecussions for cheating.

When you cheat on a test, instead of studing for it, you never learn the material the teacher is trying to teach you. Since you never learn the material you never gain the ability to differentiate between there and their, much less know when to use a question mark.



Don't cheat kids.

[Madecologist]

Also another worry I have is that they relegate your ME2 LI as a Mistress or (male version there of) if you had a ME1 LI, if they go heavy handed on the cheating theme. Which is something I don't think is deserving for Thane, Jacob, Garrus, Jack, Miranda, and Tali. Especially Garrus or Tali who actually knew your ME1 LI.

I am actually honestly suprised that Garrus or Tali do not mention your ME1 romance ever. You would think they be the first one to ask you if you moved on.

P.S. The game does very little (in relation to Liara especially) what Shepard's attitude is towards her after they meet.
