    Ashley is easily one of the most underrated and the most misunderstood character in the franchise! Despite the fact you have to earn her trust and to trust others, she's strong, caring, incorruptible, and not afraid to say what she feels! She may not be Top 10 but she still deserves respect!

Very good character really. No gratitude, no thanks, just being a bitch. Same with Kaidan.

      Ashley haters are the window lickers of the Mass Effect community. The reason "those" people hate her is because they know she is right, and ends up being right about mostly everything. Ashley has always had a grounded, jaded, and *based* outlook. Certain people can't stand it... She's not a nihilist or a RayCiSsT as some clowns assert.
      Besides, if we are going to be non-hypocritical about passing judgments. Both Wrex and Grunt repeatedly state their sweeping hatred for Turians and Salarians. Mordin is responsible for modifying a genocidal sterility plague... then rationalizes it with hypothetical views! lol

    Ashley won me over with ease. There's something about her man that's hard for me to pass up. Not only she's incredibly misunderstood. People consider her to be racist while failing to take into account that everyone is racist to a certain extent in this damn game. The Turians, Krogan, Salarian, Humans, All displayed prejudice behavior but not for some reason half fandom only hates Ashley for it. It's like how do you fail to see her growth throughout the series? How by Mass Effect 3 can you even consider her to be this raging racist? She has an attitude yes but she's also incredibly kind and sweet.

      @smol_pupper123 that is exactly the reason to not like Ashley, you get a pass to be racist because everyone around is racist? That is dumb and ashley is dumb, especially in ME3. She trusted Udina over Shepard even tho she knew from ME1 what a scumbag politician he is. And on one hand she prefers humans and on the other hand hates Shepard for allying with cerberus to destroy the collectors. Other characters are just simply better. Even Javik who was part of an overlord race came to understand speciesism was dumb within few days, Joker, Jack, Garrus hell even Wrex, Mordin, Zaeed, Jacob and ofcourse Tali and Liara, especially Tali who even warmed up to the Geths are just simply better, they are not speciesist and correctly understood what shepard was all about and Ashley could not, even when we save her on virmire, kill cerberus on Mars along with the fact that we have been with Alliance for the last 6 months!

      @@creatureofhabit7049 A lot of her "racist" comments actually have merit. Her comments about how all species will look out for themselves first? Remind me again how the Counsel species act at the beginning of ME3. The Turians were the only ones to offer help, and even that was because they needed Shepard's help. And the only reason they needed Shepard's help is because the Asari and Salarians weren't willing to help them.
      Her questioning the allowing of aliens to have free rein of the Normandy? It's the most advanced ship in the Alliance fleet, loaded with classified technology. I'd argue she'd be derelict in her duties if she didn't question the wisdom of letting non-Alliance personnel unsupervised access to all the classified components of the ship. And guess what? Tali ended up bringing those secrets back to the Migrant Fleet.
      And when Kirrahe needed a crew member on his team, she volunteered for that assignment, even though Kaiden already had. If she was really so racist, you'd think she'd do her best to avoid working under the command of an alien, not volunteer for it.
      As far as not trusting Shepard in ME3, she didn't know what Cerberus had done to get Shepard to work with them. We see that Cerberus has altered their soldiers, and Miranda even admits that she wanted to put a control chip in Shepard's brain. So it's not like Ashley's concerns were unreasonable.
      You're approaching this from a position where you have all the information. You know it's a video game, that Shepard doesn't have a control chip, that the alien squadmates are cool, etc. You're not looking at it from a realistic perspective. After all, do you think it would be wise for the US Navy to let a Chinese national have unrestricted access to a Ford-class supercarrier? That person might be trustworthy, but why take the chance. It's not racist to restrict access, it's common sense.

    I never considered her racist because she was right about humanity being new to the galaxy power stage. She was cynical about how the other species viewed humans because they were so new. The other aliens have had much longer history and ties to one another and could have easily enslaved them in the sense of signing bad treaties etc. Think like major record labels fucking over talent. It was only through a common threat and Shepard becoming the “chosen one” was she able to see how humanity stood with the other species.

    It always drove me nuts when I saw people blasting how she acted in ME2. My first playthrough, when my Shepard saw her and just said "Been too long, Ash. How have you been?" my reaction even before Ashley spoke was "You idiot. It's been maybe a week for you, but it's been literally years for her. She loved you, lost you, mourned you, finally started to emotionally heal and you pop up in a Cerberus uniform with basically 'Hey, dude, what's up?''"

    1:50:40 This is probably my favorite scene in the entire romance and not because of the romance scene itself.
    Shepard and Ashley are both serious characters and the stakes have never been higher. If they fail, they die. And if they succeed, they only have a slim chance of winning. But here Ashley is making a flirtatious joke to lighten the mood. Not because she doesn't know the score, but because if this is their last night together, she wants to enjoy it.
    But what really gets me is the next few lines. Ashley's relationship with Shepard is full of pain and betrayal and hurt. In Mass Effect 2, she accuses him of betraying the Alliance, Anderson, and herself. She spends half of Mass Effect 3 doubting and questioning his intentions. She questions if Shepard is still the man she loved back before the Normandy SR-1 was destroyed.
    Shepard acknowledges the strength he's seen in her since the moment they met and Ashley responds with absolute certainty that this is her Shepard. That the man she met on Eden Prime and the one standing in front of her at this moment are one in the same.

    As a lover I prefer Liara, as a soldier and friend I prefer Kaiden, but Ashley is a really well written character. She is flawed and clearly carries baggage from her family, but she grows with time, dealing with aliens, friendly and threats, makes her realize that humanity needs allies. I still leave her on Virmire most of the time, but I feel like her story is tied up better than Kaiden in both ways.
    If she dies in Virmire she gets to become a symbol to her family and die believing in her God. But if she lives we get to see her grow stronger and wiser. Kinda bothers me that Kaiden ultimately got the short end of the stick, since the more vocal players picked on him and chose her due to being the only female human romance. That clearly made Bioware put effort in writting her story arc. Kaiden dying in Virmire and him becoming a Specter are great to simbolize his relationship with Shepard but don't quite get out of his Shadow like Ashley.

    When I played the original trilogy for the first time, I moved on from Ashley because she treated me unfairly on the Horizon. I get it, she was angry about my "affiliation" with Cerberus, but her "goodbye" felt like break up. I couldn't be "distracted" by it, so I romanced Miranda (who else?). Then I received a note saying she's sorry. I believe her, but her words from out last encounter drove me away. In short, too late. I made that known to her in ME3 after she woke up in the hospital. She was initially stubborn about it (not surprisingly), but she accepted it.

    I wonder why you send Kaiden with the Salarians to let them all die?
    If you want to save Ashley, I prefer her to go with the STG and pick them up, let Kaiden die at the bomb.
    1. I like having Ash cooperate with the Salarians. This could teach her about teamwork with aliens. Same reason I have Jack hold the Biotic Barrier in the Suicide Mission, it fits well with Jack's arc in ME3. Ashley's payoff isn't as rewarding but it's still nice from a roleplaying perspective.
    2. Kaiden dying holding the bomb instead of with the Salarians feels more poetic.
    3. You get to save the Salarians.
    On the other hand, you get the bomb scene with Ashley, but it's not enough to weigh up the other reasons for me.

    You know...when I choosen a Mass Effect 1 Save File, I specificly choosen one with Full Paragon and Ashley Romance. And to tell you...I was full Paragon on her in Mass Effect 2. And recently in Mass Effect 3, I went a bit Renegade. (Citadel DLC and the conversation after the love scene with Ashley.)

      Damn medical armor... But in Mass Effect 1 you can equip her with a heavy camouflaged armor developed by Armax Arsenal. And a bad fact - this is a late-game armor (Noveria and late)

    I feel like most male Shepard's interactions with Ashley (and some of Liara's) have a romantic aspect to them even if they aren't involved. To the point it feels weird that they aren't together or weren't an item at some point.

    I know that it's been said that the "canon" romance is Liara, but they really put a lot of effort and emotion into the Ashley romance. Very impressed, Shepard shows a great deal of emotion towards Ash, more so than I remember out of the other romances. A lot of "I love you"'s. Thanks for posting this, very enjoyable!

    • @Dark_Voice
      @Dark_Voice 5 місяців тому +1

      Its mostly because how how much screen time Liara gets, If Ashley got as much later on, I think she would be way better if she kept her ME1 personality. Liara is nothing to Ashley imo.

  • @achilles9448
    @achilles9448 3 роки тому +12

    Ashley is actually my third favorite romance in the trilogy and I do like her as a crewmate and there were times where I romanced her but in the mass effect the legendary edition.. I romance with Ashley and Ashley only in the first two games... and in the third game when she's in the hospital after her head gets smashed.. and she asked you if you cut all ties with her but I said no but she did get upset when she find out that I had a one-night stand with Jack but in the original trilogy that doesn't matter you can still hook up with Ashley if you wanted to even if you had other relationship like with Tal
    with Miranda or Jack... you should get with Ashley in the third game but when I play Mass Effect 3 and talk to her on the ceiling down when she sitting on the table she didn't ask me for going anywhere.... and it really sucks because I feel a lot of work into that play through and romance with Ashley but it didn't let me for some reason and I'm thinking that maybe now BioWare put that in as a very last-minute or their intentions all along

    I think my favourite romances have been ash and Miranda, been meaning to try out Jack as well, all these characters grow a lot when you romance them, all of them experienced a lot of hardship and the romance allows their character to develop more and past those experiences. It’s why personally I never picked tali or liara, they are both nice but I feel their character does not develop as much
