Now I have been on alot of sites that talk about the DLC squad characters coming back for Mass Effect 3. I personally believe anyone who did not get them from Mass Effect 2 will get them as main story squad members in Mass Effect 3. But I would like to know what you guys think about that.MEffect Fan 08:26, May 12, 2010 (UTC)

I think that the DLC squad members are pretty (relatively) unimportant to the story, I mean, if they were so intergral to the plot, they would've been included as standard characters. However, now that I think about it, there were at least a few interesting plot elements in Kasumi's mission. Like, what what the secret on the greybox? It seems to have been left for later. So, I think that you may be right. I believe they will probably return in some capacity. Squad members? eh, maybe. --Effectofthemassvariety 08:53, May 12, 2010 (UTC)

I hope they do. I won't lie, I'm not nearly as big into Kasumi as a lot of others seem to be, but I am a big fan of Zaeed. I'd love to see him back kicking you-know-what in ME3! Take that, Reapers!!! :P SpartHawg948 09:35, May 12, 2010 (UTC)

Well to tell y'all the truth, I never got the characters because they were a little pointless. They had no relative impact on the story of game and didn't have any dialouge beyond those little quotes on the Normandy. It would be interesting to see if they return, but I am not holding my breath.MEffect Fan 09:55, May 12, 2010 (UTC)

That is indeed true. We can hope though... Maybe they'll be 'new and improved!' in ME3. I can see it now: Kasumi and Zaeed 'Now with Dialogue!', or maybe 'Now with 70% more relevance!'. Something like that. :) SpartHawg948 10:03, May 12, 2010 (UTC)
Yep, everyone does admit that BioWare are not geniuses when it comes to DLC in general, but they can keep themselves alive inbetween games. It would be great to see Zaeed or Kasumi have a better backstory than what they did before the game.MEffect Fan 10:09, May 12, 2010 (UTC)
Zaeed seems to similar to Canderous Ordo from KOTOR II. Both characters were ex-military, grizzled veterans with a penchant towards shooting something first rather than talking and both having major loss within their lives. In Canderous' case losing the war with the Republic (although he seems to respect Revan) and Zaeed losing control of the Blue Suns to his partner. Yes, it would be nice if the DLC characters have a greater amount of dialogue in ME3 should they return.Spacedone 06:13, May 13, 2010 (UTC)
