Spoilers start now!


So I've played through twice just so I could compare the quiet party to the proper one. :XD: They are both pretty good with plenty of funny lines throughout and they give you a few different choices and conversations. I recommend you play the quiet one first so you can look forward to a bit more dancing in your second play through.

The morning after has a real treat in store for Mordin fans. Check out the pad next to your bed and just listen to all of it. :-)

After a final walk around it's time to return to the Normandy and a final scene, customised depending on which LI you're currently with. The two I've played so far were quite different. With Kaidan as LI it was pretty upbeat. Thane as a LI saw Shep and Joker being a bit more philosophical about the war before... ooh feels!!

When Thane appears behind Shep you get to decide what's going on here; if Thane is some kind of ghost watching over her, or simply firmly in her thoughts. Either way you finally see that Thane did matter to Shep, and she didn't just see him as a quick fling after all.
Ultimately I think Bio finally got it right  with Thane. I believe most of this content should have been part of ME3 and that it's only here now because a lot of feedback from the fans was acknowledged. Maybe this bodes well for the future game they don't want us to call Mass Effect 4 but haven't given us an alternative working title to use. Hopefully Bio will at least handle any future LI's better thanks to lessons learned here.
After playing Citadel I'm actually looking forward to the game not called Mass Effect 4 for the first time since they announced it.

As a Thanemancer and as a fan of the whole cast, I'm really glad I bought this DLC. It was a sometimes sweet, mostly hilarious way to salute Shep and crew one last time. Bio seemed to had a lot of fun making this, and it was gratifying to see all the characters again, as well as give Thane a proper farewell.

That said, I now have to go and drag my brain into an alternative universe where Thane is alive and mostly well and about to punch someone. Could be... problematic... :XD:

Ohhhh man, I had no idea about the very last goodbye scene until you mentioned it. I HAD to look it up on youtube. I'm still crying. :cry:
