If Liara's role in ME2 has something good is that it adds even more dramatic potential to Liara/Shepard relationship and the reunion/reconciliation in ME3 can be something epic and very emotional.
Because the two have gone throught so much and yet they continue to love eachother even being separated by death, time, and distance.
A love story like this deserves an happy and really good ending.
See... this is what needs to happen!!! Happy... and epic love story! Unfortunately... BW had the opportunity to do something like this with KOTOR (Revan and Bastila) and they blew it five ways from Sunday. I'm trying very hard to maintain a positive attitude but past experiences make me believe that this will not occur. There may be a DLC... but given how BW totally messed her character up in ME2 I'm expecting a complete reset of the romance.
While I agree two years has passed and people do change... Asari live for a 1000 years. Based on what she says in the first game and melding with a mate... I just can't see Liara ditching Shepard so readily even after two years. Especially not when she knew what Cerberus was doing with his body. Her character in ME2 is just too standoffish to believe, realistically speaking. And the no acknowledgement of romance between them really set me off.
As for Katsumi's mention... it only reinforced my thinking that BW is somehow not going to bring closure to this. Technically they already have really with katsumi's comments. "Were an item?" "Hard to see her again." I was not pleased with that at all.
