If you romance liara in me1, then before locking in with Miranda reignite relationship with liara in the shadowbroker dlc in me2 then romance Miranda. Me3 tell Miranda you want to continue relationship then lock in with liara before you see Miranda again. She’ll live and liara won’t call you out for cheating
@@Celisar1 ha no that life is long past me now. I wanted to see if it was possible. My first playthrough I wanted to romance liara and accidentally romanced Kaiden so I stayed loyal to him 1-3. Second playthrough I made sure to get Laura’s romance right and did. But Miranda’s story grew on me on my first playthrough. Becoming good friends with her with my fem shep and all. So I felt like I had to try but to keep her alive the whole time. If they would have given her a bigger role in 3 I would have stayed with Miranda. I built a strong relationship with her and shepherd in me2. But since her part was so small I wasn’t going to let her die. Liara is also super sweet. But next playthrough I’m going with tali
Batarian Pirate - Captain, there's only one person coming aboard Batarian Captain - One person? This will be easy Pirate - Sir, the system is flagging them as Sam Shepard Batarian Captain - FUCK!!!!!
@@Aurasoul. In a fucking escape pod Batarian Crew man - We made it Escape pod - stops then gets pulled back into the tube by a biotic field Batarian Crewman - Todd Howard please no!!!!!
ME3 biggest flaw- when alive and romanced Miranda should be with you after horizon and taking down Cerberus station with Achilles protocol then priority earth.The Citadel dlc greatly Improved her romance imo it's canon with broShep.
That was one of the biggest wish, for LE to change at least some of the stuff like more interactions/crew, even if it small, but hopefully we see them again
@@lulukomadori9651 Yeah, sadly I think we wouldn't see some characters/voice actors to return to their roles ever again for many reasons, but specially Miranda and Yvonne Strahovski, cos the way EAware handled her character thru ME3 in its original release and after Horizon...even if that's why the Citadel DLC exists tho🤷♂️🤦♂️😒😡👍
@@willfanofmanyii3751 Man, that was part the official sayings at the time, but there was much more than only that. You know that EAware focused so much on the new aspects of the game back then, like graphs, combat and online features, than on the core narrative, and so many things were resolved thru quick "cameos" or mails or just cutted....thing is that some characters were reduced to almost nothing, even important ones, and the voice actors didn't had much room to do anything...And with Yvonne, there was a vid of an a interview, which was taken down, were you can tell for the way she responded, that she was somewhat "angry", and didn't gave a crap about her character nor the game anymore, and to this day, she almost never adresses to anything ME related🤷♂️
I wish some characters from ME2 were squadmates in ME3 as well...Would have been great to add up another asari in the team to fill the void of Samara, having Kolyat to fill the place of his father after his death, having Miranda would have been great, Grunt would have been great as well. Jack is also a character I would have wanted to have again as a full squad mate. Zaeed and Kasumi would have been surprising.
Easily one of my favorite romances along with liara and tali, so sad we couldn't have her and other me2 members be permanent members in the team. Regardless love miranda looking forward to winning her heart again in legendary edition
Also going to have to add Random Equinox's Accidental Hero Of The Galaxy series. Another story where Miranda is fitted perfectly into ME3 as a main character
Personally I understood Miranda's reasons for not being a squadmate but Zaeed, Jacob, and Kirrahe were missed opportunities and Aria/Nyreen should have been permanent. Bioware messed up.
Liara, Tali and Miranda are my literal top 3 male shep romances too (despite being gay I just don't find the Kaidan romance all that investing). If I romance Liara though I stay loyal to her through all the games. Exchanging Ashley for Tali and Miranda is more preferable. Also I reccomend the Miranda mod for LE. It's available with the EGM mod now
Even though she didn't get a lot in ME3 I still personally look forward to every interaction with her. Gorgeous, mature, and my type of woman. She deserved more love. No matter what, she is my ultimate go to as BroShep.
Her romance is deep, deeper than I used to think, and has come to be one of my favourites. Really disappointed she wasn't a squad mate in ME3, or at least was with you the night before Cerberus headquarters. It's what puts me off choosing her and Jack. Their romance just doesn't feel complete compared to the rest
Yea she had one of the weaker ones in ME3 but I feel like citadel dlc kinda made up for it especially the casino scene still sucks she wasn’t a squad mate though always felt like her and Male Shep had the most chemistry
All the mass effect 2 romances feel really underwhelming because everyone of the characters were sidelined in me3. Really wish they were made squad mates and fleshed out more.
@@goku8621 Yeah, personally I think Male Shep Miranda is the best pairing as both are the Peak of Human potential for their respective sexes. If they both weren't sterile I would be horrified at the monsters their kids would be.
I was torn between romancing Miranda and Tali . I usually romance Tali she’s so goddamn cute all the time and has curves in all the right places. Miranda though turns out to be one of the sweetest characters after putting the charm on her. Looking at her communication history on the Shadow Broker base shows how desperate she is to find a solution to her infertility. Even with all her perfect genetics she never had the ability to have children and she resents it.
Didn't her 'Father' want a Dynasty? So much so he went out of his way to create genetically perfect children? Seems like a monumentally stupid move to make those children infertile.
@@keithadams7619 bro, thats why mirandas father made a replacement for miranda lolz. She said she barely escaped when she realized that her father was going to delete her just like all her other sisters
@@keithadams7619 If I remember right, her father also created Miranda out of his XY chromosomes by modifying his Y chromosome to become X. That's why she can't have kids, because biochemically she isn't a woman by genetic right. He created more semi-clones that could have kids.
Her powers after you gain full loyalty were really impressive Shepard in the beginning of ME2 on that hospital bed sees Miranda and stretches his hand "It was a sign"
Funny thing is there a mod that does exactly that sadly. If you look up Miranda mod you're see how much the mod improved the romance by adding a few things especially having her sleeping with Shepard before the final mission on Earth. And having her join you going to Cerebrus.
Miranda over ashley anyday really wish they made her a full on crewmate. Ash has trust issues and miranda fully trusts you and is the reason you were ressurected and is hotter than ash
I wouldn’t call it trust issues. It makes perfect sense that Shepherd has to earn her trust again. He died and then 2 years later he suddenly pops up working for/with a terrorist group ran by a shady human supremacist. Then she finds out the terror org are also the ones who ‘revived’ him. We as players know Shepherds intentions were still good, and that Cerberus couldn’t/didn’t risk messing with his mind in any way, and wanted him exactly as he was, but Ash doesn’t. Ashley’s more realistic than the other characters who fall right back in line and don’t question the situation at all.
In terms of story both Miranda and liara make most sense as a main romance because both Miranda and Liara play a pivotal part of the game the first game with Lira and her mother the second game with Miranda and Cerberus
I'm a girl too and when i decided to play as MaleShep i romanced Miranda as well, since her and my FemShep were friends and i always felt like Miranda was lonely i said "Yep, i'm gonna get her a handsome boyfriend"
Liara- seeted, vengeful psychopath that secretly loves power. Feels like a forced union setup by parents (Bioware and EA) Tali- Nerd tech that uses the innocent act to get out of situations and has a rather aggressive personality underneath. Ashley - Always blaming someone else when the tough gets going, and feels the need to continuously apologize because of it. Jack- Tough exterior to hide her insecurities. Samara- carries baggage and runs away from parenting responsibilities for greater purpose. Kelly Chambers - the average chick at the club, who is honestly okay with being one and done. Traynor - High maintenance. Note the speech about the mass effect tooth brush. Miranda - Daddy issues, can't have kids, is confident but not confident in herself. She knows that she is good-looking but makes her feel worthless. The cheerleader who peaked in high school fell for the douchebag (Jacob Traynor), turns out she is looking for emotional attachment, and is the only one that cries if you break up with her, not to mention she still wants you back.
@@ownage11445 Actually maybe not because Miri's ""father"" used his own modified chromosome, she has no "mother" DNA. Just one DNA. With Shepard there's a possibility that any genetical error in Miranda's DNA can be correctec due more amount of genetical data. And besides, she cannot have childs naturally like any normal human, something that she wants; to be normal. What is sad because her "father" ruined that by playing to be God. for sure there's more ways to have a child in that time than we have now irl.
Bioware could also change the narrative. they could pin it on stress which makes sense because she is stressed almost the entire game. About Her sister, father, illusive man, Shepard. Stress can be an ignored factor of not being able to conceive. Many doctors could give the wrong diagnosis. So I totally would see Miranda accidentally getting pregnant and when she finds out, she would definitely get the doctor fired. Then goes to doctor chakwas who confirms she can actually conceive.
For a male Shep, Miri will always be my favorite. I know Liara, Tali, Ash etc. all have their fans but to me she is second to none. She is infertile but she brought Shep back to life and hers is the first face Shep sees after Project Lazarus. In fact it may be a direct reference to how Neo wakes up and sees Trinity in the real world.
@@javypotter1994 Yeah, you're right. I should have thought about that one. I just thought that she would have cleared out where the engineers were, not down in the hold. Jack would have been down there fuming, I reckon. Just another slap in the face for Jaqueline. A shame, because I love Jack and after reading the entries on the Shadowbroker's ship, it made me appreciate her more.
@@Scottie_S i agree Miranda would’ve thought to talk to her if not her probably Tali, I really hope she has a better story if they bring her back for ME5
Ashley and Miranda are so different but at the same time pretty similar. I think that's why I'm drawn to them both. I love both Ashley and Miranda equally. Originally i said Ashley was best girl but this video made me love Miranda even more. Now she's tied with Ashley lol.
It's so good to see the troubleshooting space diva has a softer side. Also, I totally lost it when Shep wanted to be "just an average guy taking his best girl out on the town"
Jack will always be my favorite, but getting through Miranda’s barriers and facade has a huge pay off. She plays the stone cold bitch but really has a heart of gold.
Never liked about 3rd game pointing out s&x scene only with ones from 1st game but everyone else gets bIack screen effect. Even though Liara is my favourite, Miranda last goodbye dialogue felt like Yennefer character (mask chapter part), like she didn't even care.
I romanced Miranda on my first playthrough because I had a crush on Yvonne Strahovski (the voice actor) at the time. On my second playthrough I went for Tali, because of her personality. I have not, nor will I pay for a legendary edition... At least not full price.
When I First played ME2 and saw Miranda I went a rull run to romance her. Then I had that conversation with Tali, with she stumbling over words and Boom, just dropped anything else and went out with my now favorite RO in the game. Let's be real, who can resist thoose hips?
I like Miranda but romancing her just for 1 out of 3 games doesn't feel worth it. You can only really interact with her after the second to last mission in ME3. And she isn't even with you on Earth for the big finale. In my last playthrough, she invited me to meet her in the casino AFTER I was done with the Cerberus HQ. At that point Priority:Earth is the only mission you can start. And it means Miranda was on the Citadel when the Reapers moved it to Earth. 😂 "Sure, Miranda. I'm gonna meet you in the casino. But that is easier said than done. I'll have to fight my way through the Reapers on Earth, get into the teleporter, meet the Catalyst, destroy the Reapers and then I'll head straight to the casino..."
i to this day do not understand. Why the engine room? Like, a metal segmented floor where people work, and presumably spill god knows what. "I only settle for the best", Picks one of the least comfortable and private places on the ship.
At first I wanted to romance Kasumi, not knowing that she can't be romanced. The developers made Miranda very hot but her face looks kind of weird in the second game.
Yeah that never made any sense. Who better to take on the assault on the Cerberus base than the former second in command? Imagine the potential dialogue between her and the Illusive Man and Kai Leng during a rematch. The scenes where EDI reveals the steps of the Lazurus Project would have been perfect fodder for more Shep/Miranda romance moments. They made such a big deal about Miranda in ME2 it makes no sense that she and the other ME2 characters were just tossed aside for basically glorified cameos in ME3 when everyone should have been available and on the Normandy at once. Or at least in different stages.
@@Syryu real asf. First scene of ME2 she's literally at Cronus station with illusive man! Even if you totally fuck it up and she dies in me3 she just says she put a tracker on Kai Leng like??? Mate you literally shared the same bathroom as the illusive man smfh *bat man voice* WHERE IS HE?!
Okay, so at the 1:00:07 timestamp, how exactly can you trigger that scene, I've tried everything, and that never pops ups despite me meeting all the requirements. Do I just not invite her up first?
My headcanon is of a male Earthborne, war hero adept Shepard. He falls for Liara, dies then after two years he wakes up alone and the face he sees is of Miranda. He falls for her as well, the woman that saved his life after Liara saved his body. During LOTSB he connects with Liara but she is understandably jealous. In ME3 Liara goes back to the Normandy as the Shadow Broker, a wiser and more powerful asari. She forgives Shepard and after connecting to him she starts to feel what he feels. That is, she understands Shepard's love for Miranda and realizes the tragedy that Miranda can't have children, not with Shepard that is. There is another option, one where they all live happily. Realizing that they, Shepard, Liara and Miranda, might not even survive this war, the three decide to form a relationship amongst them. Initially, a triangle around Shepard but afterwards a proper relationship between them all, without toxic jealousy. Once Shepard defeats the Reapers and comes back, he and Miranda both connect with Liara, she bears children for them. Liara's children would be the most amazing biotics possible, born out of two powerful biotic users and incredible fighters. Meanwhile, with Shepards cybernetics and Miranda genetics, the three could live long and happilly for centuries. A real happy ever after.
This is kinda unrelated, but I just finished Mass Effect 2 and managed to keep everyone alive in the end. Having said that, I was curious. I put Miranda in charge of the 1st support team (the part where you're job is to guide the chosen Tech Specialist through the thermal vent). At the conclusion of this section, Miranda took a bullet just before the door closed, but it seemed to bounce off. It gave me a heart attack because for a fraction of a second I thought I'd lost her. Was there a specific upgrade I'd purchased beforehand that saved her? EDIT: Having thought about it, I realised I had remembered events wrong. I forgot there were two instances where the team have to split up, first one where Shepard's team escorts the tech specialist, and the second when Shepard's team takes the Biotic through the seeker swarms. The second of which is the one I was thinking of. Apologies for the mix up.
1st mordin is the man not only does he A have respect BUTANDALSO B HE GIVES YOU MEDICAL ADVICE ABOUT SEX Zaeed WRONG he generally chills in the garbage compactor room which does not have a window to the engine ACTUALLY the life support andor Thanes room does but same logic applies Thane even if he did notice he's respectful enough to allows the privacy AND TO TOP THIS ALL OFF I doubt Miranda was that carless
I'm sure you've already worked this out but it's not based on bars whether you do certain speech checks is based on percentage of renegade or Paragon which can be annoying because for example Zaeed's loyalty mission if not done early means you most likely won't be able to Paragon speech check him to get his loyalty to guarantee his loyalty you'd then have to go the renegade route.
Major rule here: Never...ever...break up with Miranda...Because if you do, she'll die, no matter what you do.
Unless you break-up with her in ME2 just before porting over to me3.
*laughs maniacally*
She dies if you break up with her in ME3, but not if you cheat. Somebody had their priorities backwards when they designed that.
If you romance liara in me1, then before locking in with Miranda reignite relationship with liara in the shadowbroker dlc in me2 then romance Miranda. Me3 tell Miranda you want to continue relationship then lock in with liara before you see Miranda again. She’ll live and liara won’t call you out for cheating

@@Scottie_S i agree Miranda would’ve thought to talk to her if not her probably Tali, I really hope she has a better story if they bring her back for ME5
@@javypotter1994 ME5? Is that confirmed?!
ME 3’s other biggest sin besides the lazy endings was not allowing your team from
2 join you in 3, especially any love interest from 2.
Ashley and Miranda are so different but at the same time pretty similar. I think that's why I'm drawn to them both. I love both Ashley and Miranda equally. Originally i said Ashley was best girl but this video made me love Miranda even more. Now she's tied with Ashley lol.
It's so good to see the troubleshooting space diva has a softer side.
Also, I totally lost it when Shep wanted to be "just an average guy taking his best girl out on the town"
Thank you so much for uploading these updated videos! I plan on replaying these games many times but there are some cutscenes i may never see
The sad thing is that in the entire trilogy there is not a single romance that would be complete.....
1:00:33 Not gonna lie, I tend to lean towards Tali, Jack or Liara. But one look at Miranda in that dress makes me almost regret my preferred romance
Miranda with better graphics? Sign me up.
Word on the street is at least 22% of Biowares budget for this series went into the animations for Miranda's dumptruck of a booty.
@@SereneSimian And yet they still removed the damn booty shots 💀
@@jordanskene3243 its a goddamn tragedy
The only clip I feel missing from this vid is when you have Miranda at the Collector Base resigning from Cerberus.
New version of Mass Effect, new version of Jaguar's Shepard. Me like.
Jack will always be my favorite, but getting through Miranda’s barriers and facade has a huge pay off. She plays the stone cold bitch but really has a heart of gold.
Remember people, in Mass Effect 2 Normandy is full with spyng equipment, even in the engeneerig room, good day.
That smash cut from the engine room scene to "WE HAD TO DO IT" had me dying.
It was a travesty that she or Jack weren't included in the clone mission.
Never liked about 3rd game pointing out s&x scene only with ones from 1st game but everyone else gets bIack screen effect.
Even though Liara is my favourite, Miranda last goodbye dialogue felt like Yennefer character (mask chapter part), like she didn't even care.
lol @ cutting to Miranda saying "We had to do it, Shepard" right after watching them bone each other
She is the only woman of my Shepard.
She is really the One 1⃣ and the only BEST
I believe in Miranda supremacy.
she was done so dirty in mass effect 3, she should've been a squadmate :,((((( her romance was too good to be so tiny in the 3rd game.
33:53 This is Mordin after after all. After hearing his adventures on Omega im sure he has planted a couple of bugs himself.
I love that the door's open in their scene in the engine room.
Miranda is the quintessential character in ME2, unforgettable.
I romanced Miranda on my first playthrough because I had a crush on Yvonne Strahovski (the voice actor) at the time.
On my second playthrough I went for Tali, because of her personality.
I have not, nor will I pay for a legendary edition... At least not full price.
It was on offer not to long ago for PlayStation, I am not sure about Xbox and steam always has sales
When I First played ME2 and saw Miranda I went a rull run to romance her. Then I had that conversation with Tali, with she stumbling over words and Boom, just dropped anything else and went out with my now favorite RO in the game. Let's be real, who can resist thoose hips?
Love watching theese from you in HD
1:05:34 Look at Jacob 😂
Ooh yeah, unfortunate timing. Hard to blame him though.
My favorite romance. I hope to meet someone like her one day, actual soulmate
Garrus head moving always kills me 19:09 🤣🤣🤣☠️
I like Miranda but romancing her just for 1 out of 3 games doesn't feel worth it.
You can only really interact with her after the second to last mission in ME3. And she isn't even with you on Earth for the big finale.
In my last playthrough, she invited me to meet her in the casino AFTER I was done with the Cerberus HQ.
At that point Priority:Earth is the only mission you can start.
And it means Miranda was on the Citadel when the Reapers moved it to Earth. 😂
"Sure, Miranda. I'm gonna meet you in the casino. But that is easier said than done. I'll have to fight my way through the Reapers on Earth, get into the teleporter, meet the Catalyst, destroy the Reapers and then I'll head straight to the casino..."
"Get this woman more wine! Bitches love wine!"
i to this day do not understand. Why the engine room? Like, a metal segmented floor where people work, and presumably spill god knows what. "I only settle for the best", Picks one of the least comfortable and private places on the ship.
At first I wanted to romance Kasumi, not knowing that she can't be romanced. The developers made Miranda very hot but her face looks kind of weird in the second game.
I thought I was the only one who thought that. She has a huge forehead
@@traviswilson3889 Her hair also looks like its detached from her head. She also has a wide nose.
Great body but her face looks quite masculine as if she was created solely from her fathers genetic material.
46:52 and I just want a slice of cake :(
You have a good looking Shepard ngl
Myron from Fresh&Fit actually managed to get a girl, damn
I miss the days, they were incompetent... when you two ran the show... 😂 just perfect Joker being Joker.
So, is the conversation between Jack and Miranda only available in Miranda's romance?
Nope. Its any time available romance or not:)
@@jaguar550 Thanks, love your videos by the way 👌🏾
@@youngm3299 Thank you very much😁
It happens after doing both Jack & Miranda’s loyalty missions.
@@MilanTehVillain I think he's talking about the mass effect 3 one, the "Can you two just kiss already" one
2:48 gotta love the glued hair that doesn't fall
I’m Miranda Lawson and Shepard still hasn’t found me yet.
The legend is back
Why couldn't we just Miranda in me3 where Cerberus base was
Yeah that never made any sense. Who better to take on the assault on the Cerberus base than the former second in command? Imagine the potential dialogue between her and the Illusive Man and Kai Leng during a rematch. The scenes where EDI reveals the steps of the Lazurus Project would have been perfect fodder for more Shep/Miranda romance moments.
They made such a big deal about Miranda in ME2 it makes no sense that she and the other ME2 characters were just tossed aside for basically glorified cameos in ME3 when everyone should have been available and on the Normandy at once. Or at least in different stages.
@@Syryu real asf. First scene of ME2 she's literally at Cronus station with illusive man! Even if you totally fuck it up and she dies in me3 she just says she put a tracker on Kai Leng like??? Mate you literally shared the same bathroom as the illusive man smfh *bat man voice* WHERE IS HE?!
29:14 I see her walk and i start doubting her words...
They didn't say they love eachother even once.
She says "I love you" in Sanctuary if she's dying from her fight with Kai Lang 🧐
Yeah it sucks. Makes no sense
@@awashington8447Man, that is so not where I want Miranda to say that!
The 1st mod I downloaded was the restore that ass mod😂
19:07
Miranda “I’m the first one he’s kept”
Garrus “He did what?”
How do they do that with clothes on (Me: Sees Miranda's Chest, Oh Nevermind)
1:08:54 i dont know why but this line is so sexy to me 😭 especially with Ashley
Okay, so at the 1:00:07 timestamp, how exactly can you trigger that scene, I've tried everything, and that never pops ups despite me meeting all the requirements. Do I just not invite her up first?
The meeting at the apartment or the casino scene?
@@Odrime
The apartment scene.
How do you get her to show up in your room for the latenight poundtown session later after blowing the Reaper installation?
After the credits roll you should have an option to invite her up to your cabin from the intercom
8:23 In Shepard thoughts:[Yeah, heard that one before. Guess what happened.]
Exactly! While I was playing I thought: "Yeah, give it a month then you'll be telling Shepard your biggest darkest secrets" and sure enough....
It was sad that Miranda isn't interested in female Shepard
Ya, Miranda only sees Jane as a friend, a sister.
Niket must have been an unbelievable f*** to keep Miranda's attention like that.
My headcanon is of a male Earthborne, war hero adept Shepard. He falls for Liara, dies then after two years he wakes up alone and the face he sees is of Miranda. He falls for her as well, the woman that saved his life after Liara saved his body. During LOTSB he connects with Liara but she is understandably jealous.
In ME3 Liara goes back to the Normandy as the Shadow Broker, a wiser and more powerful asari. She forgives Shepard and after connecting to him she starts to feel what he feels. That is, she understands Shepard's love for Miranda and realizes the tragedy that Miranda can't have children, not with Shepard that is. There is another option, one where they all live happily.
Realizing that they, Shepard, Liara and Miranda, might not even survive this war, the three decide to form a relationship amongst them. Initially, a triangle around Shepard but afterwards a proper relationship between them all, without toxic jealousy.
Once Shepard defeats the Reapers and comes back, he and Miranda both connect with Liara, she bears children for them. Liara's children would be the most amazing biotics possible, born out of two powerful biotic users and incredible fighters. Meanwhile, with Shepards cybernetics and Miranda genetics, the three could live long and happilly for centuries. A real happy ever after.
Bro is justifying his wank material ! !
Let it stay your head canon
@@spacecowboy2357yeah this isn’t even a happy polycule, this is just a power trip dude with a harem lmfao
LoL
This is kinda unrelated, but I just finished Mass Effect 2 and managed to keep everyone alive in the end.
Having said that, I was curious. I put Miranda in charge of the 1st support team (the part where you're job is to guide the chosen Tech Specialist through the thermal vent).
At the conclusion of this section, Miranda took a bullet just before the door closed, but it seemed to bounce off. It gave me a heart attack because for a fraction of a second I thought I'd lost her. Was there a specific upgrade I'd purchased beforehand that saved her?
EDIT: Having thought about it, I realised I had remembered events wrong. I forgot there were two instances where the team have to split up, first one where Shepard's team escorts the tech specialist, and the second when Shepard's team takes the Biotic through the seeker swarms. The second of which is the one I was thinking of.
Apologies for the mix up.
I think as long as you've done her loyalty mission, she survives if she's put in that role.
She will survive as the fire team leader even if she isn't loyal.
She's the only one of the fireteam options (that can live as the fireteam leader) that survives even without the loyalty mission done.
I really dislike that some characters just don't have a post-collector base dialogue like Tali, ACKNOWLEDGE WE BANGED, OKAY?
Miranda is my favorite
Is Garrus next? Please?
Without her it would just be M Effect 😏
Nice
how do i get last picture of miranda ....
I hope they bring her back in the new mass effect game , it whould be very interesting.
Miranda: Oh Pardon Me Shepard
Shepard: Oh about to change my armor
Miranda: First Things First (Leaps On Shepard)
And Liara as the shadow broker in Mass effect 3 and Miranda dealing with her father
Hottest woman in the game. Besides EDI ofc.
Wait, didn't Mordin and Zaed have a window looking in on the engine room?
1st mordin is the man not only does he A have respect BUTANDALSO
B HE GIVES YOU MEDICAL ADVICE ABOUT SEX
Zaeed WRONG he generally chills in the garbage compactor room which does not have a window to the engine ACTUALLY the life support andor Thanes room does but same logic applies Thane even if he did notice he's respectful enough to allows the privacy
AND TO TOP THIS ALL OFF I doubt Miranda was that carless
I love miranda lawson always ❤️ but ashley and liara still growing on me
Shepard is Geralt and Miranda is like Yennefer
Tip for you. If you Romance Miranda in ME2 please stay faithful to her in ME3 or else you'll regret her ending.
Sad that they deleted the sexy camera angles from the original...
Ya.
I’m commander Boosie, and I’m here to run’a fade.
21:00 That’s bullshit. How does that shotgun blast cover that much distance with that tight of a focus?
Krogan shotgun
Big slug
1:11:00 sounds like the halo music. Not gonna lie...
It's called suite autumn
Why didnt I get the blue option when Jake and Miranda argue? I had 3 blue bars then
I'm sure you've already worked this out but it's not based on bars whether you do certain speech checks is based on percentage of renegade or Paragon which can be annoying because for example Zaeed's loyalty mission if not done early means you most likely won't be able to Paragon speech check him to get his loyalty to guarantee his loyalty you'd then have to go the renegade route.
Probably because you didn't import your ME1 save.
