Mass effect 2 Romance glitch

@dylan881 Bioware should have at least added a section in the LE for the VS to allow players to start mending the relationship with them in ME2 or if not they have to do so in ME3 normally. I would have loved to have them meet Legion in M2 (as well Anderson who calls him a trophy bot when Shepard takes them to him post Collector Base), might have been similar to how Tali reacted when they realize Shepard has had an actual Geth ally with them in the Ship AI Core.

@draconiam well this is the thing we gotta remember that this is a remaster of the original game So if they were to add a scene where you can reconnect to a relationship from the first game they would’ve had add animations voice acting time to that not technically they probably could but then they would have to add new coding to the original game now I don’t know what would that mean for the original version of the games And how that would’ve worked but again when I look at the achievement list on my Xbox I noticed that minor detail with the romance trophy for the second game that really got me to think because again they would’ve had to put coding in for The achievements to make sure that the achievement unlocked normally like the original versions so when the achievement said rekindle relationship and that then that something that could cause a glitch in including because for all intensive purposes there is no way to rekindle a relationship in the second Game apart from liara after the DLC and that’s a technology because in the second one there is no way to rekindle relationship it is only to establish a romantic relationship now I know the description of the achievements maybe a technicality and should really possibly affect the game but the fact that romancing a squad made after the suicide mission still works in the original version of the game tell Me there’s a lot more going on and that’s why I’m looking at every possible scenario every possible variant that could potentially cause this glitch and it could be same with any other of the glitches with the other achievements let’s look at every possible variance every possible scenarios that could’ve caused it and then look at it because it’s the only way Anyone could possibly look at it is to get the save data and try and look at the save data plot flag and see if there’s any corruption in the tracking system of the flagging and the achievement tracking system/trophy tracking system

@dylan881 This should be something that modders must know.

@draconiam again this is a theory that may or may not be actual possibility that could hold weight because again I don’t know if the actual achievements have any bearing to do with the flagging system and also I think this might of been an oversight during development because the way I looked at these achievements/Trophies is that they were trying to make a A chain trophy/achievement where the romance achievement trophy are basically the same there achievement/Trophy for the same mechanic system for the plot so what they thought instead of making it separate why don’t try and make it where if Shepherd romances no one in The first game then when they romance someone in the second one the first part romance trophy/achievement will be unlocked and when they do it in the third one then the second one would be a lot now that is also one of my theories about the achievement/trophy unlocking mechanism they were thinking off but also again I’m not an expert in gaming development I have no experience on that I don’t work for any game developers that my disclaimer but I’m open to other theories and that because if we talk about it then maybe we might be able to find a solution to try and fix it and even if we the fans can’t find a fix maybe the developers can so long as we can provide as much information as possible about this particular glitch but I was saying any other glitches that we may encounter

@dylan881 True enough.

@draconiam i’ve got a bit of a question for you has this glitch only showing up on one particular platform or is it happening on every platform that the game is on

@dylan881 I game on PS4 but from conversations in here I found that it's on Xbox One at least, I suspect it is also on PC and if so modders should be able to see if there is a script problem.

@draconiam so we know it’s not isolated to one particular platform so it could be one of two things could be a glitch in the game self or a combination of the game and the platform PC potentially Xbox and PlayStation that has the Romance glitch the other thing is does the romance work properly before the suicide mission because if it’s only not working after the suicide mission then we might have a bit more idea because if it’s only been affected after the suicide mission then I don’t say help us pinpoint what’s going on

@dylan881 There is a pretty good chance Bioware changed the Romance parameters hard to the detriment of the player base.
I guess we all must be waiting for a chance to ask Bioware directly on both Facebook and Twitter when they make a new post promoting items for sale.
