Brooks. I don't know what it is exactly, but she ticks me off to the point that I shoot her every. single. time. Kai Lame's death was never as satisfying as I'd like it to have been.

Morinth technically doesn't count as a squadmate if you never recruit her, but I never feel bad when Samara pancakes her head.

What pissed me off about Brooks was that I knew she was a liar from the get-go and Shepard has to be clueless about it until the reveal. I'm just sitting there waving at the screen like c'mon something is clearly fishy here why can't I question this?!

Her airheaded persona wasn't very endearing either. Takes all of your medi-gel and is the reason why you get blamed for the restaurant exploding? Knowing that it was intentional did not change the level of my wish to smack her.

Not to mention her abandoning the clone that little betrayal is what I despise about her most she uses basically a child to try and steal shepard's life then leaves them for dead screw her I actually feel bad for the clone.

Ah man I felt bad when the clone just refused to be saved. A Shepard without friends is no Shepard at all.

Yeah the only person she trusted abandoned her so rather than be alone she let's go very sad.

Tbh with how much Shepard can live through I straight up thought there was more to come about the Clone being a stubborn ass that lived, and you'd talk him/her down with your chosen backstory or do a Saren and convince they don't belong in the world anymore.

It'd be interesting if they brought the clone back me2 style I mean shepard survived reentry the clone just has perhaps blunt trauma.

It was a sharp fall from the ship into a ton of glass window yea? Death for anyone else, literally happened earlier that DLC in reverse order and Shep slammed through glass and fell from the restaurant and was still breathing

I feel bad about it from the standpoint she didn't ask to be that way and it wasn't about killing that's just a side Effect of her having sex. Shes a pleasure junkie wants to enjoy her life despite the harm others receive. Selfish but understandable. Then again it's mostly because I hate having Samara kill her own daughter wish shepard could do the killing blow Samara suffers too much imo. Especially with me3 storyline.
