Kaiden becomes pretty much your best friend by the third game.
His voice acting sells the whole "friend you had a falling out with" better than Ashley, since he comes off as way more remorseful.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?That's his character.
I really like the conversation you have with Kaiden at rhe cafe, and he expresses worry that people find him dull because he's so focused and quiet.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?I also remember him at the Citadel DLC party.
If you choose a quiet, casual party, he's pretty comfortable and chatty, but if you go for a louder more energetic one he's off on the sidelines.
He doesn't have a powerful personality, but he does have a genuine one.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?At last, you subscribe to the Norm Field Of Hideously Over-Analysing Pretend People.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?I think that's what lent to his portrayal as just a gibbering lunatic in the movies. In her writings about the story, Shelley said that she intended for the Monster to be more sympathetic, so I think that even though people seem to trust and love Victor in canon, we as the readers are meant to severely question them, as well as question Victor.

I wound up obsessively talking to my whole party out of fear I would miss something, and I liked her a whole lot more than I liked Liara. Liara seemed to just be there to be the blue alien chick to ask you what this thing called love is. Ashley was a soldier with a family and hobbies and religious beliefs that were out of step with her time but weren't villanised or held up as "the right way", and she wasn't even sexualised the way Miranda was, but still came off as, well, female, rather than just having her be the butch stereotype to serve as a counterpart to the space babes in miniskirts.
They kinda undid most of that by 3...
Though that's a good thing for Liara, because then she got an actual personality and shit.
