Oh i'm in disguise at this party while i'm casing the joint oh wait let me put my finger to my ear and talk under my breath that's not suspicious at all. It's audience shorthand to tell us that the character is talking to someone through a radio, but we already know that because we can hear the other person being talked to. It's dumb.

    Yes thank you.

    Also, when the spy agency is tailing somebody, and every single field agent, although dressed like random civilians, has one of those earsets with the curly cord going down into their collar.

    I have worn them before and wholly they are not comfortable to wear for any lengthy period.

    My ear hurt after a good day of wearing it.

    I saw a kid get handed a JB poster by who I presume was his parents outside my store today....he tore it in half infront of his horrified parents.....There's hope for our youth yet!

    There are sure a lot of windows (or viewscreens?) on that ship. Gonna be awkward if you're in there banging and some poor crewmate is out washing the windows. Also I hope the view changes a lot based on where you are.

    LEGION GREATLY DISAPPROVES.

    Why would it be a descendant, doesn't the game start soon after the human expeditions comes out of cryo sleep?

    No.

    I am noble. I am pure. I am soldier. Gene therapy only, no tech or eezo shall Sully me.

    Your guns and shields are tech though. See also: your entire body past part 2.
    One of the things I liked in ME3 were some rather subtle nods of just how transhuman Shep had become. IIRC, you had a couple times where Shephard just heaved some incredibly heavy stuff out of the way, shoved open jammed doors, or shrugged off a big drop that you might not have really thought about at the time, but in hindsight, was way out of the range of standard human capabilities. Gogo all those Cerberus enhancements.

    After Citadel, it dawned on me that...
    CloneShep spends pretty much the entire scenario fleeing from Shepard. CloneShep was, of course, a clone of human Shepard, but Shepard herself was by then a zombie cyborg death machine. CloneShep knew from the start that she was badly outmatched by the real thing, and her best plan was to hijack the Normandy and escape into the chaos of the Reaper invasion.

    Anyway, my head canon is that Shep always did the Clark Kent thing outside of combat, just to avoid hurting her crew's feelings. She could have done an infinite number of pull-ups, but why crush Vega's ego?

    If you look closely at the Pathfinder's cabin in that video, you'll note that the Tempest's long range communication console (i.e the equivalent to the thing on the Normandy that Shep used to talk to the Council and TIM) is right beside the bed.

    Maybe Ryder will "accidentally" leave it on, so she can show the Andromeda Initiative's equivalent of the Council exactly how many fucks she gives.

    The Andromeda ships leave before the events of ME3. Khalisah is in ME3.

    Just remember that half the people you meet are below average intelligence.

    But how would she be a descendant if everyone is in cryo the whole time is the issue. To have a descendant there would have to be banging.

    You don't have to be born on the trip to be a descendant. Khalisah could've had a son or daughter that goes on the trip.

    Descendant normally means like further down the line than son or daughter. Ignoring that its a really gross thing to want.

    She died horribly in a reaper attack if I remember correctly. Doing something mildly heroic, which made me feel bad.

    That was Emily Wong. Khalisah al-Jilani shows up in ME3.
