Looks like a millenial default Shepard

Anderson is in pretty good shape. Looks more dumpy in his formal outfit.

How would Saul Goodman fare in Tali's Trial in Mass Effect 2?

Would he be able to get her cleared of charges without presenting evidence?

You know you have to, biowaretrannies, make it happen.

Sure, it's not like it ends up being that hard for Shepard either. You only need to talk to a couple qu*rians before getting the trial is really a farce done in reality to choose whether to go to war or not.

You dont even need to talk to them, you just need to pass the check

Sure, but in-universe seeing them straight up spell it out for you is still the most obvious way to get just how little they actually care about Tali and Rael's guilt.

Shit character. Seeing her sperg out in 2 on how she couldn't deal with a non-romanced Shepard dying so much so she changed careers entirely, stole Shepard's body from the Collectors and gave it to Cerberus is hilarious for how outright creepy it is. You were a random crew member I knew for a few months, chill the fuck out

Such a shit fucking character I even forgot to quote

Where the FUCK is the LE2 Community Patch?

Mod maker made a sneak peek video on it... last November. I have no clue what the hell might be taking him this long.

It's unbelievable how badly they butchered Liara and Ashley. In ME1 Liara was a cute nerd and Ashley was a tomboyish woman who believes in God, which is at least interesting as it's a novelty in a sci-fi setting. ME2 obviously ruined Ashley (and Kaiden) by making them retards who no longer trust you just because you're working with Cerberus, and it sets Liara up to be an important player as the shadow broker and it does a good job of developing her from her nerdy self to a dangerous and ruthless information broker. Then ME3 roles around and Ashley is now bisexual, devoid of personality and still a retard and Liara is next to useless despite being the fucking shadow broker and has zero personality as well. Seriously, Tali and Jack are the only female romances that I think are worth a damn, and Jack gets shafted in ME3 due to almost all of the ME2 characters being sidelined.

james is a better gung-ho hothead than ashley and a better bro than kaiden with an actual personality, and has better banter with the other squadmates. he should have been there from me1

>it sets Liara up to be an important player as the shadow broker and it does a good job of developing her from her nerdy self to a dangerous and ruthless information broker
Have we played the same fucking game

>a full decade and people still call Kaidan, Kaiden
At least it's not as bad as Shepherd
>it does a good job of developing her from her nerdy self to a dangerous and ruthless information broker
user, come on now
>Ashley is now bisexual
She's not; Kaidan is, but you can thankfully avoid it
>almost all of the ME2 characters being sidelined
You can mostly thank the Suicide Mission for that. As soon as any character *can* die in a game, they're useless from that point forward in the narrative as a whole because they'll never be able to affect the game in a serious way

>Then ME3 roles around and Ashley is now bisexual
Nah, Kaidan is though and it actually wasn't too bad from what I remember, I didn't go through with it but the proposition actually felt more realistic than the way these games usually do it, which is to get good boy points to unlock your sex cutscene. This magical uturn at least gave the impression of complicated developed feelings over several games, combined with the backdrop of galactic annihilation.

>>a full decade and people still call Kaidan, Kaiden
In my defense, Kaidan is so forgettable that it's difficult to remember the exact spelling of his name.
>he's not; Kaidan is, but you can thankfully avoid it
God damn, both of them are so fucking boring that I didn't realize that Ashley didn't get the same bisexual treatment as Kaidan. Had to look that one up to make sure I wasn't going crazy, yeah she's still straight and only Kaidan got the globohomo treatment, lmao. My bad.
>user, come on now (referencing Liara in ME2)
Hey, it wasn't Shakespeare but I thought they did a decent job showing that Liara has changed over the last 2 years. Again though, she's ruined in ME3 so a disagreement here doesn't really matter.

David Anderson was a real one, a true heemer.

>le Kaidan is forgettable meme
What a hot take. You also remember him as a whiner, I presume
>I thought they did a decent job showing that Liara has changed over the last 2 years
You thought wrong
>she's ruined in ME3
ME2*
ME2's Liara's street-smart people skills info broker meme directly opposes her ME1 characterization. Trading information isn't looking at terminals. "Information broker" is a fancy way of saying info merchant. Being a merchant above all requires insight into the other person's behavior and attitude, knowing how to best take advantage of them in a bargain, knowing how to back and who to betray, when to threaten, when to charm, knowing what value someone might place on something. You don't even have to be book-smart for this job, you have to be street smart and know how to deal with people. Liara's whole shtick in ME1 was that she focused on science in an impersonal way and that her social expertise was non-existent. Tracking Shepard's body isn't something that would improve her social expertise. Being an information broker is something that requires vast amount of social expertise because it hinges on navigating through ambiguous social exchanges and knowing when your opponent is bullshitting you or trying to oversell/undersell or trying to scam you. Liara not knowing anything about this and then suddenly becoming one of Ilium's finest at this within 2 years in a society where it takes fucking decades to hone your skills is bullshit. It's completely flipping a character without any believable progression. Completely ignoring a character's key trait in order to give them a power level increase or story relevancy is textbook Mary Sue stuff.

His head should be open

my only problem with Kaidan is that he sounds a little zesty in 3.

Kaidan is fine, same as Vega; people act like every single character should be a super special renegade cop/merc like Garrus or Wrex or Zaeed. A normal dude that's put his problems behind him is needed when every single other character i full of daddy/grandaddy/mommy issues

>You also remember him as a whiner, I presume

That's on ME1 being their first "cinematic RPG with romance" so merely talking nicely to a squadmate makes them want to suck your dick

Asari pregnancy comes from the mind-melding, not creampies. So yeah, you can fuck her ass while embracing eternity to make a baby
