Out of the 4 times I've done this quest now, the only time I felt any emotion was the second time - and realistically it was probably because I was overtired from playing for 12 hours straight lol.
I mean, in theory the story is sad - but it's not executed well enough, and yeah the Cora sniffles just ruins it - because Cora doesn't strike me as the type to sniffle at things, even though I dislike her, I don't think she'd crack like that, totally not Asari Commando material.
Just because someone knows how to fight - doesn't mean they can't have a heart.

I liked it as just a sad little quest you get to feel a little better about finishing at the end. I'm not having to choose between bad or worse, it tells a little story, and I don't have to kill anyone. I wish there were more of these and less of the others actually.
You can still get wet eyes at funerals, national anthems, and olympic ceremonies and be hard as nails. You ever want to see a bunch of guys sniff at a movie like a bunch of teenage girls watching the Hallmark channel try 'Saving Private Ryan' at the "tell me I'm a good man" scene.

I love the little things that have heart personally. Stuff that shows that while our characters can kick some * - they are still just people trying to survive. I get some people do prefer to play as a full renegade hard * but that wasn’t an option really in this game, I never play renegade anyways and I would love to see more 'moments' of my char being effected by what has been thrown at them. Even though they still go on and do whats required - alone on the ship or with a friend they should still be able to have a meltdown once in a while !
P.S. also why I wasnt bothered with Liam's meltdown - he was on the ship, he is human and entitled to one now and then!
I have passed 3 times to this mission. The third time, I still wondered how much more they could fail to sway me. Of course, that's a personal input only. I felt more sorry for making my horse come to me from the other side of the world in Witcher 3 than with that story.
*broods with pile of books*

You liked the "Save the Whales" quest better?💔
As overall story, comparing Witcher 3 and ME:A is comparing fish and bicycles. You will enjoy Witcher 3. You make hard choices, in a bleak world, and end on bittersweet notes (or just flat out sad) - but you feel you did the right thing. More importantly, it feels like all the issues are resolved when you're done. You see the results of the decisions you make.
