Amber, as her human self, is happy to let you choose dating locations. She’s quiet but thoughtful. You go ice skating and she smiles for the first time. It’s wholesome. Everything culminates when she asks you to attend a ritual with her at the graveyard; a moment shared with a love lost.
She’s obviously very responsive here. I think you would have a lovely time on this path.
Sadly he is too gay. You have a plotline where he politely turns you down but sets you up with someone else he knows and pays for your date, meal, flowers, etc. He never refers to the rejection again, but he quietly tries to arrange for your life to be significantly nicer.
If you were an intelligent young man with wit and intrigue you would get a romance route where he baits you along in almost-competition as your rivalry gets more and more tense and exciting. After pairing up with him he becomes very placid and domestic, though he admits he doesn’t like sharing a bed to sleep in.
If you were an older gentleman of pride and distinction he would throw himself at your feet and keep trying to impress you. Once you’re together he acts like a young valiant knight in your service.
Assuming this dating sim is the kind where orientations are not relevant, I’m sure this would go pretty well. She’d be very protective of you but somewhat awkward of a date as she really isn’t used to people being interested (Weird, right?! She’s fuck’n gorgeous!). She’d probably spill her drink all over herself and mix her words up when trying to speak and you’d finding it cute and charming probably. She doesn’t like dictating what to do on dates so likely you would be picking the restaurant, movie, location, etc.
If the sim cares more about orientation tho… well you can look forward to some good QPP times because she doesn’t normally swing your way, love. ❤
Yo you know what I need some good QPP so bring it on
Not sure what aesthetic I’m rocking today but I am rocking
he has the best character development in the entire trilogy in my opinion. just thinking about it makes me lose my pants because it makes me so excited asdfghjkl.
and I think one of the most powerful moments is when shepard is unfortunately reluctant to cure the genophage (my shepard would never do this. but that’s what youtube is for)
shepard: “everytime we’ve talked about this before, you’ve defended the genophage! hell, I had to talk you into saving maelon’s data! how can you change your mind now?”
mordin: “I made a MISTAKE”
this is so powerful. also props to mordin’s voice actor because that was really nicely done. and it’s just. so different to what he says when you first meet him.
It’s also notable that he actually says “I” here.
Mordin speaks largely in sentence fragments, and he tends not to reference himself as a direct object. I haven’t analyzed his entire dialogue for this, but I’m pretty sure that, outside of singing, we haven’t heard him say “I” ever before. At all.
“Made mistakes!” is far more in-line with his typical speech patterns, but instead he says “I made a mistake!” – he’s taking full responsibility here in a way he hasn’t admitted to before
His feelings about the genophage are not a clinical detachment anymore, they’re personal, and he finally can’t hold that in any longer
Mordin falls back into that fragmented syntax in the very next sentence, but for that one moment, for those four words, he lets Shepard (and us) see how much the legacy of the genophage has affected him
