What's funny is when you get to know her, she's one of the better written characters in the game lol.
Yeah, she wasn't that bad. Definitely better than Liam and that weird alien dude (I think his name started with 'J'), but crappier than Drack and Vetra.

I don't get why people always say Manshep is 'boring' as if it's some kind of inside joke. It's literally the same dialogue and the same actions as Femshep.

If it's about the delivery, still no. Meer does his job perfectly fine. Keeps his voice neutral and professional, which is what you'd expect considering his background as a decorated soldier. If anything, Hale's Femshep is a tad too emotional at times. You can complain it's flat, but it's not too bland or going so far as to ruin what he's saying. He's still capable of a decent sarcastic voice too IMO.

The only case this argument would make sense is when you're pursuing the romance sidequests, because of course it makes sense to be emotional here. Manshep's lines during the romances are somewhat stony and therefore funny, so I'll concede that, but the romance dialogues aren't everything.

He does get better at displaying emotions as the series progresses, though, so there's something in that. You could also chalk that up to character development in a way: In the beginning of the series he's all professional because he's working with people he's never seen before in his life(minus Kaidan, and even then it's implied they haven't been serving alongside each other for long). Come the third game, he's developed a through-death-and-out-together kind of companionship with his squadmates and after the kind of hell he's been going through over the series, his emotional barriers are cracking.

Liara has the best 3 game romance that actually pays off well in the last game if you stay loyal to her in 2 as well.

This, and I feel like if any romance is Canon, it would be that one.

I think a lot if people gave up on Meer after ME1, and he's just kinda meh in that one. In particular, with Renegade options it seemed like he thought "louder" equalled "angrier". He was definitely better in 2, and I'd actually put his performance in 3 on part with Hale's.

Still, I'll always appreciate one line of his in ME1: I'd been stringing Ashley and Liara along, and (for those who don't know) if you do that, eventually they show up at the same time and force you to choose between them. One of BroShep's lines as they argue is "I love it when women fight over me", and he sounded like such a colossal douche that I damn near cried laughing.

Maybe you'd be more appealing if you weren't such a racist :<

Could be worse than racist.

Could be boring as all the fucks that ever fucked.

*Also glares into the future and sees Jacob*

Heavy risk... but the priiiiiiiizzzzzzeeeeee....

I suppose technically all we have to go on is her word, but why would she lie? Almost no one knew who TIM really was, and her backstory doesn't fit with his. Having the same last name doesn't mean you're related to someone.

No, but it means the writers of Andromeda was lazy enough to insinuate it without confirming or denying to create some sort of coversational material in lack of an actual good story to talk about.

I didn't think anyone liked the lovers from MEA to me she is like a forgettable Miley Cyrus. Heck it took me a few mins to even remember who she even worse.

how were the romances in andromeda

Bioware is not the best at writing this kind of thing.

In general yeah, but the Solas romance is really fucking good.

His performance of the Paragon interrupt at the end of Project Overlord was fucking incredible and FemShep doesn't hold a candle to that one.
