 Yea, getting an updated face texture sure is dangerous... just ask Garrus :whistle:

LMAO aw =(

hm might aswell comment, I'm not a big Liara fan, which is weird because I actually like what they did with her character in 1 I really think it was her face that just made me find her annoying but now my God yes I love her new face. I romanced Liara by accident in me1 which angered me at the time but then I just went along with it, now I've grown fond of their not meant to be romance.

I love her old face texture. I love her new one. She looks more mature. I've loved her always. No question about that! <3

I like the overhaul. I also like that she looks like she's not wearing any makeup and the fact she looks tired.

and who wouldn't be tired after what she's been trough?

Thats the point. Not many games go through that much detail with characters to advance the story.

I'm abit curios about why they changed her face (if only slightly) again. It's not bad just strange that they will do that.

I think she looks more mature in a world-weary kind-of-way. I also think she looks a bit less like her face-model. Does anyone think she looks like someone in-game? Are they trying to hint at her father's identity?

Maybe she's just not wearing any makeup.

Which makes a certain degree of sense. When you're about to embark on a life-or-death mission of vengeance and blood, you don't generally take the time to pretty up. Which is why my femshep lacks makeup. (Well, that and I just find makeup unattractive for some reason.)

She does look more mature and worn out. But it doesn't really make sense for her to jump from two diffrent facial models in the same game, especially since the timeline is at best a few months.

Maybe it's like a patch and works as a complete work over of her character? Changing how she looks even at the Illium cameo!

I would say Samara, but all her daughters are Ardat-Yakshi (and she knows them).
Morinth...rather unlikely ^_^

I think I remember you, Homicidal Frog. Although you won't find many of the old people here.


I thought your username sounded familiar when I read it. What happened to the old guys anyway?


Amongst other things, they decided they didn't want to deal with the nature of public forums. Granted, it was not without cause, however, things have tempered out recently. But most of them are still holed up in a private group now.

I just had a terrible, horrible thought; what if Female Shepard uses her 'flirty' voice in the romance dialogue with Liara?

To some, I suppose they wouldn't mind that, but personally, I really don't want the 'flirty' voice to show up again. It basically took a sledgehammer to FemShep's credibility. Because, in all honesty; it made her sound like a streetcorner prostitute. Plus the fact that I seriously doubt it would be appropriate by any stretch of the term in the mood of whatever conversations Shepard and Liara will have in LotSB.

In short; no flirty voice!

yeah. Hopefully Femshep won't sound like a ****! But on the flipside, I'm gonna murder somebody if Mark Meer's preformance is sub-par like it was in overlord.

At this point, I always expect Bioware will make him deliver his lines in that hideous monotone. So that way, I'm surprised whenever he is able to sneak in a little emotion. Posted Image

His preformance in Kasumi DLC was somewhat acceptable (BDTS was slightly better). It was just Overlord where 90% of his lines felt phoned in.

I'm sure they'll have extensive dialogue from Meer.



Anyway, on the topic of Liara's face, I'd just like to say that the strange expression is, once again, merely because she's expressing a painful emotion just then. The lips look fine, the contrast between them and her skin is just very high in that lighting. Her neck is like it always has been, she's just worn a high collar in ME1. As for her eyes, besides the slight clouding of her right eye in that screenshot, they look emotional and gorgeous.



I personally like her new look. I loved her when she was innocent and awkward, and now their relationship, and Liara herself, is maturing. She's gone from the cute sort of beautiful to the dangerous, achingly attractive sort. Either way, she's still Liara. Besides, who says she still can't be somewhat awkward still? Let's just talk to her when the mission is over, and she can think about something other than smearing the walls with the Shadow Broker.

It depends....if it's 'Jacob-esque' flirty, then no.  I think that tone was 'Jacob romance special' for some reason...

I think the worse example is when you destroy the radar dish in the begining of overlord, it just sound so unconvincing. Atleast Jennifer Hale tried.

But I find solace in the knowlegde that Mark Meer's preformance in ME2 main-game was good, as it will indicate that he will do a job well done in ME3. Where it matters the most.

This brings me back to a previous statement I made on this thread a while back. I think Liara is a good mirror of the overall spirit of the Mass Effect Trilogy. In the first game, there was a wide-eyed innocence to it all as you explored this brave new world for the first time. In ME2, things get shocked and turn upside down, you have to ally yourself with a shadow organization for the greater good, ignoring what your conscience may say and along the way, you pick up some scars, you see horrific things and do unpleasant deeds because they are necessary. In my eyes, Liara's own story and character mirror this, albeit in a different way.

In the screenshots we see, Liara looks thin in a figurative sense, or worn. The lack of makeup makes for an overall feeling of being 'bare' in a character sense. She is entirely without veneer.

If visuals were tastes, then ME1 Liara would taste like an orange, and this new Liara, this phoenix rising from the ashes of the old self that burned with the Normandy, has a visual taste of a fine lime.

I thought the "You've got to be kidding!" was alright. And I'm in a perpetual state of being up in the air of what I think of the "Then we'll see who'se valuable" deliver. On one playthrough, I'm not impressed, and on another, I'm okay with it.

I always thought she looked like Aria, but people think I'm crazy.

Hmm...I should do a comparison shot of those two when I get home.
