    Even more heartless, to the nth degree, would be to double/double-cross Tali with Liara. The thought alone is enough to drive one to nerd-despair.

    Get some fucking culture in you.



    however, "bonking" is something you do to someone in TF2. Boink is more acceptable as a sexual slang.

    Argh - do we have to do this again? bonk is more commonly used this side of the atlantic for sexual intercourse than "boink". who cares.

    That's what I'm going for. We'll see if it works.

    Let us know how it goes. Personally I couldn't be unfaithful to Liara after this intense dlc. But... in theory you could:

    I think we're a go.

    I only really dislike the Turian anyway. I enjoy telling him off (and disconnecting on him) and there's no chance to get more of that in the future if I murder him :(

    There's no chance of getting this either.

    Yep.

    It's a term very rarely used these days, anything to keep it alive and all that.

    Anything is sexual slang. Anything. Bonk, boink, badank-a-donk, it's all pretty clear from context. If you know what I mean.

    One of these days I'm going to have to actually find out what happens if I skip a few of these interrupts.

    Sexual slang + Mass Effect thread is a rather volatile mix...

    You wouldn't expect it, but Jack really does have some good combat dialogue.

    "Hello, soon-to-be-dead people !"

    "Hey, there's my next group of victims !"

    And, having just brought her to Tuchanka for Grunt's loyalty mission:

    "You mean Grunt's just reaching puberty ? So he's never, um... really, never ?"

    I finally stopped myself from interrupting the Omega merc pointing me to the strippers room (femshep)

    Shepard just stares at him

    "Not even a smile, huh? Alright..."

    Spoiler:

    There aren't any interrupts while waking up Grunt. At least none that I've seen, and I've done that sequence twice in the past three days.

    That's not NEARLY as good as Fade's guards.

    Yep, there are. I didn't get this until about the fifth run.

    I actually really like Shadowbroker for this. All of the options for successful resolution of a sticky situation end up with badassery occuring. Particularly the non-talky renegade option, which is straight renegade in the "whatever is expedient without being a complete asshole" way. Makes it fun to be renegade rather than feeling like a straight sociopath.

    So, is there a mod to replace one of the squadmates in the lineup with Liara yet? Someone useless, like jack, maybe?

    I do find it kind of hilarious that Shepard can be a xenophobic weirdo yet still hit on and sleep with Asari like it's going out of style. Just like the Illusive Man in that respect.

    For some reason I kind of wish TIM's gender was related to Shepard's. Either opposite or the same; there's no real need to make him male each time (other than the financial considerations).

  • SilverWindSilverWind Registered User regular
    So, next thread-- who's making it?

    And is it super lovey paragon time? :D

  • electricitylikesmeelectricitylikesme Registered User regular
    No! If TIMs gender changed then it couldn't always be Martin Sheen.
