Funny thing really... a new theory formed in my head, the attempt to explan why we can't respond to the mail from our LI.
Seems that BW and Obsidian worked together as partners, and while I'm not sure about their current standings... they must have split their works and stopped exchanging ideas because in Obsidian's newest game, Alpha Protocol, the main character can respond to several email to different characters in different styles. You like the girl, you send back a flirtatious answer. You wanna keep her as friend answer in a joking way... whatever. I was so much thinking about how well this feature would have fit in... and the fact that you usually get a response from person you wrote.
Also... selling information you recovered... gosh I would have loved that option for ME2... sell the Cerberus data to the Alliance, the Shadowbroker, send it to Kaidan... whatever. Ah well, back to Oblivion for me... and may we find satisfaction (with Kaidan) in ME3 while I find comfort in the shades.


'Evening Ki.

Good theory and the email resonse may be one of the few pluses that Obsidian managed to get away with!  Not going to rant about Obsidian (I'd like to but I won't, lol). However, a DLC about communication....email communication would be great....would be a nice little bridge between ME2 and ME3.  Actually I think it's much needed.  It's often so much harder, particularly after a rather dramatic bit of rejection, to actually talk to the person.  It's a lot easier by email.  Which is one of the reasons why social networks and texting are so big. It would certainly make sense for Kaidan and Shep to begin mending fences via email. 

I've always wondered why we didn't get to make a response, especially since I remember several interviews including one at E3 where Casey Hudson talked about the ME1 LIs not being part of the action but that your character would be able to "exchange emails with them".  Exchange implies going two ways, not just one, doesn't it?

Ah.  Thanks.

Just finished reading... it had me loling from start to finish.  Only you could take a collection of ideas as random as what we threw at you and turn it into a coherent, good fic.

Anyone have any good ideas for music/songs relating to Kaidan? Kaidan's theme? Kaidan romance theme? If you do then throw them my way.

Goodmorning everyone :) Came back from my conference and still have to catch up with the thred.



@ Golden-Rose - It is not exactly a very romantic song but 'the lost prophets' - it is not the end of the world, reminds me of the the Shenko relationship amids the threat they are facing.

It's brilliant Chem, I read it at 5:30 am this morning and had to catch myself several times before I was laughing out loud and waking my house guests in the next room.

Good Morning Milk & Golden-



Sorry no specific songs really you might ask Jo about that- she is good at that & Ki has a song in her sig that she finds appropriate (I think it was #1) she posted a page or two back-you can find it there. I am old and the only song that comes to mind is Two Steps Behind & only because of the line "Walk away if you want to, it's okay if you need to" - it reminds me of Horizon & the whole two steps thing... Well you get the idea - it's a Def Leppard song.



Yeah I'm old

Really, he said that? Hmm. I've seen so many interviews prior to ME2's release and now I don't recall much of them anymore. It doesn't make sense at all to have a message system where the receiver can only read the messages but not respond to them in any way. So Shepard reads this mail from the escaped convict who mailed from a new victim's house right? And all she does is "mark it as read" and go about her merry little way afterwards. I mean, hello? 

No mail to Kaidan, no mail to her spacer background mother, no way to reply to Hackett, nothing. It would have been nice if the mail system was part of the missions. Like in ME1 where a transmission from Hackett and a little conversation would introduce a new sidemission. Why can't we have some interaction with a reply to confirm the mission and thus flagging it as active and perhaps getting a follow up mail with the coordinates or something.

I don't even read the messages anymore in my current playthrough (which is basically my second full runthrough of ME2), I just mark them as read to clean up the list. What's the point in reading them all again if you can't reply anyway. Don't think there's an excuse for Shepard NOT to reply. None what so ever. She has time to get drunk in some random bar, she has time to hump Jacob's leg or play poker with the engineers but she can't take 5 minutes to send a message to Kaidan?
Pfft.

Like I mentioned before, the trading of nude pics could not be implemented into the game.

It wouldn't fit onto the disc.

:devil:

I'm lurking while 'sketching' abit and wrestling Kaidan INto an Alliance uniform at the moment, for some reason I'm thinking he hates the thing and prefers his standard wear. But hey, I'm gonna make him anyway just because he looks hot in it ;)

Brijenieve put together a playlist for Shepard/Kaidan on her blog based on the thread's suggestions a while ago.  You can find it on the side column here.
