Zaeed trying to pick up Samara (what a shame the acting world, particularly for games, lost Robin Sachs). The last Prothean raving about becoming Emperor. I did think there were some great exchanges during the party. The other encounters ranged from merely okay to cursory at best, but at least the effort was there to let you have moments with all the characters. I also liked the conversation with Vega, and watching sports with the unlikely friends - Cortez and Vega. One step down from the delight of these four interactions were the memorial for Thane and the conversation with Miranda. I loved the cooking scene and the fact you could make a grown up choice about how the evening ended.
The encounter with my LI which for my Shepard was Kaidan. The sideways glances from Shepard while Wrex treats his abused nether regions with a bag of ice are priceless. Wrex moaning about the Krogan women who want their first child to be sired by Urdnot Wrex who helped cure the Genophage.
It was funny and delightful, and the way he exhorts Shepard to “Keep up!” is wonderful. Grunt’s tale about “Grunt Tankbred’s Day Off”.
The cut scene was hilarious and so charming, and I chose to support his delusions of grandeur and help him get those free drinks because it was just so charming and hey, he did save the Normandy from the Collectors. Joker spinning a yarn about his derring do to save the Normandy from Cerberus. There were four interactions in particular that I thought were just inspired. I’m going to talk about the interactions with your teammates, friends and LI (love interest) before I get into the whole “evil clone” plot. I enjoyed large sections of this add on, but ultimately it feels like another missed opportunity. I appreciate the fact that BioWare has sent me a box of chocolates and some roses, that this DLC (downloadable content) was a love letter and maybe even a bit of an apology from the folks at BioWare. I have played almost every permutation of the “party”.
