That sounds pretty reasonable, jlb. Now that you've made me think of it, it does seem logical. Of course, we'd all want ample conversations with Liara even if she's not a squad mate.

I take that that means you'd prefer that she stay the SB and help Shepard that way.

Yes, I think it's only logical.  Shepard has plenty of squad mates and biotic specialists already.  Not to undermine Liara's abilities in combat, but there are plenty of people around the galaxy that can do the 'biotic powerhouse' job for Shepard.  However, I feel there's only one person that Shepard trusts enough and has the training and mental capabilities to do the SB job and collect key intel for Shepard to use against the Reapers, and that one person is Liara.

I kind of agree w/ that, but only if Aethyta is the biotic powerhouse/bartender.

Well, if she acts as a quest giver and the story forces you to speak with her at various intervals, then I don't see why that would be a problem.  There would be ample opportunity for dialog with her, and the romance could be continued in those converstions, or the friendship.

Yes, she should bartend on the Normandy or on the Shadow Broker base

Are we still allowed to post pics here of Liara? From ME1?



OK, I did it.

I kind of miss the old look.

woooow...she looks so young and innocence there... O_o



remember in ME1 all the things she'd mess up? trying to understand humans....



Liara changed so much...... I miss my blushing blue bookworm!

[jlb524]

Yes, Liara is just beautiful and adorable in both ME1 and ME2.

[brivdl1]

I replay me1,and the difference of this liara et the liara of me2 is great

into me1,liara is like a little child and into me2 liara becomes a real woman,independant and more egal with shepard

I love the two liara and how she is mature in me2

[Keithhy]

I romanced Liara in ME1, but to be honest, I simply couldn't remember why I'd gone with her when we met up again in ME2. Thankfully, Lair of the Shadow Broker fixed that problem, and I now completely remember why she is far and away the best LI in the series so far

[jlb524]

I don't think Liara changed as much as she just came into her own element and now finally feels comfortable in her own skin.



She had some identity issues before...she was overshadowed by her extremely powerful mother, she never knew her 'father' was, her research on the Protheans was never accepted by her peers. I think LotSB shows us that she has finally comfortable with who she is and what she is best at. She now knows how she can help save the galaxy. I really like this.

Exactly... I felt like I had to drop in the old thread once I finally did get through the DLC, and... they did it.  They made LiLi the new Shadow Broker, and made me believe why.  And I can tell you that if any DLC would be worth the wait this was.  Had plenty of action ... plenty of banter ("What's this armed with?" "It's a taxi, all it has is a fare box!"), and ... wow.

[jlb524]

Hi Jayla! I'm glad you loved the DLC! It was perfect.



Liara is the Shadow Broker! She's a woman with power, intelligence, compassion, and *starts swooning*



The Liara/Shep banter was hilarious!

[Nightwriter]

All true.

Furthermore, she intends to use said power, wealth and influence to change the organisation, the galaxy and the lives of it's inhabitants for the better! I love it!

Hell yeah!  That's the 'compassion' part.  That Liara...always thinking about others instead of herself.

So how do you think BW will develop this reclaimed love relationship ?

Beautifully well. The potential is enourmous, and I think the content of Liara's ME2 love scene gives a heavy indication as to the direction that Liara's romance will progress in ME3. Throughout the game, we will be treated to it's development into something truly deep, with Shepard and Liara truly becoming devoted to each other and starting to process of becoming bondmates. I actually subscribe to the belief that on the eve of the final battle, rather than show a "love scene" as we have become accustomed to, Shepard and Liara's romance scene will be the pair of them holding their beondmate ceremony, and exchanging their vows. It would be a nice way of symbolising just how developed and deep the romance has become.

Suffice it to say, I think that ME3 will showcase the pair of them becoming true lovers, soulmates and bondmates, with the relationship developing into something truly deep. The romance has been reconciled...we're now able to enjoy it's progression and deepening.

Nice said...hope that comes true

I also think that they left Feron on the ship for a reason...Even if she doesnt become a squaddie I think you have the chance, if you romance her, to convince her to drop the shadow broker business and to follow you in to the happy end (or maybe a glorious sacrifice). However if you dont romance her I somehow expect her to stay as the shadow broker...with Feron on her side.

I also expect that you can first time romance her in Me3 as well.

I think the relationship can only deepen from this point. Even with LotSB, the relationship is still in the 'troubled second act' as the two are still torn apart. This time, they are torn apart by duty...both Shepard and Liara now have clearly defined roles that they must fulfill for the sake of the galaxy. Shepard as the front-line soldier, the warrior that will lead the troops onwards, and Liara as the backbone, providing key intel and financial support (Cerberus, the Council, and the Alliance may be unreliable here).



The difference with the DLC is that now Shepard and Liara can finally re-affirm their love and it's not stuck in limbo like it was in ME2. They have become true partners and have joined together in the epic task of stopping the Reapers. The DLC is bittersweet because they must spend time apart in order to accomplish this, but we see that the love is still there, and it remains strong in spite of the having to carry out their respective duties alone. I think love grows stronger in these types of situations.

As we have said Les...

It has the potential to be EPIC in nature!!!!

Let's hope Bioware follows through!!

You hearing this Bioware? Follow through!!

[pf17456]

I'm interested in seeing how that will unfold in subsequent productions.



I'd like to see some progressive paragon interrupt dialogue develop with subsequent visits to the SB base



I'm hoping that they'll go off together on some missions, meet Liara's father and for some Shepard's mother.



I'd love to see how the Normandy crew interacts with Liara and what they have to say to Shepard about Liara.



Where or what should happen with Liara's upcoming birthday ?

A quick trip to an abandoned Prothean dig site! An ensuing battle with mercenaries bent on their death! A harrowing escape! A triumphant return to the Normandy! A steaming hot scented oil bath and massage from Shepard! The rest...

I'll leave to everyone's imagination!

[jlb524]

Well, Shepard did promise Liara not to go and die again....we'll see how that goes.



But, I think that is one promise Shepard can't really make there. But, it doesn't matter, they are together for the time....they will enjoy what they have together in that one fleeting moment.

[pf17456]

Nice idea even though BW will likely leave that to everyone's imagination.



I thought it awesome how BW brought closure to the open questions/ doubts from ME2 but they also opened the door for a story line that could indeed become quite Epic however I think it will take a lot more to get from drinks on the Normandy to little blue babies
