Gosh, I really hope my Shepard doesn't become a wandering drunk(looking at you, Alistair) with PTSD.

Remember...bad ME3 ending and Kaidan disappointment = large group of angry fans descending upon BW with pitchforks, tar and multicolored feathers!

And sequns , don't forget the sequins

BW Just better keep whoever wrote Horizon away from the ending sequence of ME3.

Edit top of the page!

just taking a quick break from my ME2 playing lol. Had a gr8 time out today at the paintball center. now i got bruises everywhere but was able to not only "shoot" a lotof people but also end up as "last survivor" gah i'm so proud! Finally gave up after 4 hours when I was almost out of paintballs and the "pros" were taking over and their guns hurt a tiny bit more and seeing that i was only wearing a t-shirt by that time because it was so frakking hot in there, my arms said "this ends now" after getting hit the 10th time. ouchie ouch! Great way to celebrate a mixed bachelor/bachelorette party with friends. Unfortunately, the bride will look a bit like she's got beaten up in her sleeveless dress haha. thank god I'm only a guest and can wear whatever I want. xD

Anyway, back to ME2 and Lana romancing Thane. Funny thing is, she tried romancing Garrus AND Thane and then Garrus goes on about the love triangle and all...it's really heartbreaking to tell him that she only wants friendship. :'( but she's Thane's girl. Shaye is still too sad about Kaidan and says, she doesn't want to play again anytime soon. I keep torturing her with my second ME1 playthrough though so she gets at least some Kaidan love. Poor girl!

Yep, I finished chapter 6 last night.  It just needs a beta before it goes live.  If you saw my last post, you'll know there's an important bit of information about Carth's backstory in this one.

Evening everyone.



Just moved my stuff in my temporary flat. No pc though. just my mac. I'll have to bear with a DA and MEless month. Otherwise, Oxford is great.



@Night. awww... paintballing

Ashley and Kaidan walked into a bar.

Shepard left Ashley behind to set off a Tactical nuke.

There was a discussion going on a few hours ago in the Jack thread as to who would win in a fight... Kaidan or Jack. Jack fans (a majority) came to the conclusions that Jack would win. I'm interested to see if the Kaidan fans would come to the conclusion that Kaidan would win. Formulate and discuss!

@Nick that would depend on the rules of the fight. Does it have to be a purely biotic fight? What about weapons? Obviously, Kaidan's sub in ME2 is Jacob

LOL! Ugh, yeah, I've only played Awakenings once and don't plan to again. It is the only Bioware game so far that I wish I could get my money back for. =/ At least with ME2 you know the romance is going to continue over into ME3 with Kaidan or Ashley... especially since Ash tells male Shepard she still loves him in her email.

Here's hoping Dragon Age 2 will be better, but still - I want me some ME3 Kaidan hotness! x.x

Shepard stepped out of the elevator, the sound of her heels clicking on the warship's sturdy metal floors. For the first time in a long time, she felt like an actual woman. With each step, her movements felt less robotic and more organic.

She was a beautiful, sexual creature; she hadn't felt this way since Kaidan.

At first, Shepard had resisted the dress and the fussy heels that came with it. There were better, more utilitarian pieces of clothing in her closet that were more suited to her station.

She remembered the day that she made the switch to the dress. She'd finished a shower, her heart burdened with the troubling knowledge that this time, she wouldn't have some of the most important people in her life by her side. Shepard opened the door to her closet to select her outfit and paused. The glaring Cerberus logo on each outfit stared her down, accused her and reminded her of her consistent failures to communicate with people she should have been open and honest with.

The Cerberus outfits flew across the room to smack against the wall. Sighing, the Commander looked into her closet once more and considered her options: a burlap sack and a leather dress.

From then on, Shepard and the dress became friends. It was silly how a dress could make her feel good, but damn it, she needed any scrap of happiness she could take.

She felt a rare smile work its way onto her face as she approached Garrus' station. The door opened automatically for her to reveal Garrus, Jacob, Ken, and other assorted male crew members.

"Shepard!" Jacob smiled, "It's good to see you. We were just all hanging out in this small room."

"I noticed," Shepard murmured, "Any reason why you're all in here right now?"

"None, Commander," Garrus replied. He couldn't look her in the eye.

"How about you sit down?" Ken asked. "Those shoes don't look that comfortable."

Shepard nodded. Ken was right; the shoes were awful on the balls of her feet, but she wouldn't give them up for the world.

And so, Shepard sat on the crate like she always had.

The room fell silent, the Commander oblivious to the way she sat.

Just dropping a note in here in case Sia or Jilly stop by. Ch. 6 of Truth and Lies is ready for beta.  (If anyone else wants to take a look as well, you're welcome to but you may want to familiarize yourself with where I'm at in the story first.)

For Night: This chapter includes part 1 of the explanation of Carth's history with Saul. Part 2 will be coming in a couple chapters, or possibly three depending on whether or not I get to Bastila's entrance next chapter... and o hai there, muse, I just had an interesting idea for a lead-in to the aforementioned part 2.

Send it on over.

Purely biotics, Jack.
All in all? Hard to say. I think Kaidan would have a bit of an edge on her with his tech skills. His biotics aren't a pushover either.

[Sialater]

Depends on if he's got Overload or not.

[Livia]

Got bored earlier and took a few screenies of my videos done with Fraps of the FemShep/Kaidan convos in ME1. *coughs* >.>
My friend says I'm weird, but I know you all won't think it's weird! Anyhow, lol.



Kissy kissy!



And one of my FemShep just after Joker brickwalls the kiss - mostly to prove she's not fug, she looks awful in the other pic. xD

Dunno. Soon as I open the thread I see Kaidan bashing, so I see no point to the discussion after that.

Circumstances are important.

I think if Jack got the drop on Kaidan, she'd win.  I think if Kaidan surprised Jack, he'd win.  I think if they were evenly matched like... in an arena or something, Kaidan might win because he has more tricks up his sleeve.  In a barroom brawl, he might be too distracted by trying not to hurt onlookers, so Jack might win because she doesn't give a damn.  Etc.

Kaidan would lose. He has the L2 or L1 implants right? The one that makes him stronger than most Biotics but has severe backdraws?  Well, Jack has the L5 implants, almost as strong or as strong as those Im guessing. AND that only enhances her biotics. AND she was the precursor to Kaidan's training thing as a child with the Turian he killed.  Im not sure who'd win, but Jack has RAW Power on her side. She is leaps and bounds ahead of Kaidan in that sense.

I'll concede that Jack is the stronger biotic. She uses her anger to fight and it means that she hits as hard as she can every time she hits. 

But one thing we don't know about Kaidan is the limit to his biotics. We haven't had any cool cutscene magic to show us the extent of his biotics. 

That being said, I think Kaidan would win based on the following:
- He's honed his biotics with strict discipline. Jack has not.
- He's got skills other than biotics, namely tech. Jack doesn't have these skills.
- He has all over discipline; Jack doesn't have this.
- Jack is likely to go all in immediately and wear herself out. Kaidan would pace himself and conserve his energy.
- Jack is described by the devs as one of the more "squishy" characters of ME2, like Mordin. Kaidan is much less squishy. In fact, his squishiness has been toned down by ME2 since we see him in medium armor in the whole game. He's obviously had extra armor training.

We've all seen martial arts movies where the angry, untrained brute faces up against the weaker yet disciplined kung-fu master. The challenger always roughs up the martial artist, but the defender always ends up winning because the challenger makes an undisciplined mistake. 

It would be a close fight, but I'm very sure that Kaidan would win.

I don't think Jack is 34.  Kaidan began training as a biotic before Jack.  I would guess the Teltin project started right after  or right before BAAT was shut down.

Jack also gets stronger the more deteriorated her mind is. Sort of like the Hulk. Also Jack isn't as untrained as you'd think. She's been roaming around with various mercenary bands her whole life as well as the training she recieved at the Cerberus institute. She has a good grasp of military tactics and terrorist tactics. If not, she would not be who she is, and she would not be alive.

[UrbanPhoenix]

I want to point out that we haven't seen Kaidan's limit. We are only told that because of his L2 implants he gets migraines. So technically he could get stronger but the pain of the migraine might get worse. Though Jack has raw power it is unrefined meaning that it could spiral out of control should she get too angry.

Kaidan's alliance biotic training thing started AFTER Jack shut down that Cerberus facility, not before. That I know for sure. The rest gets foggy after that.
