Love is in the air

I was reading PC Gamers article on Episode 3's release date announcement and they included the plot summary of the episode.

"After a dizzying escape from a very-near-almost-certain-death scenario (involving statuesque buttocks), Rhys and Fiona find themselves looking for another piece of the puzzle that will lead them to the untold riches of Vault key ownership. Lost in the mysterious jungle of an Atlas terraforming facility, Fiona finds help from an unexpected mentor, Rhys continues to share brain-space with the disembodied mind of a dead dictator, and love is in the air. Pursued by the ruthless criminal 'Queenpin' Vallory, and with very little help from Vaughn's accountancy skills (or stellar abs), getting anywhere near the Vault will be entirely up to you."

  • It's Vausquez's time to shine.

    It's why Vaughn isn't in the pictures. Vasquez is with him, admiring his abs.

  • I bet its gonna be a BIG troll from TTG.

  • What if it means Telltale gives us the opportunity to choose who to ship Rhys with in the game xD
    That would be interesting!!

  • Oh god that would be awesome.

  • There going to fake us out most likely by giving us a choice and then either going back and choosing again (like what they did in GOT Episode 4) or show us what really happened (like agreeing to alliance when they actually tried to kill them).

  • I hope it'll be based on your choice. :v People should be free to choose who they want to pair up with. It'll be the only way to avoid more shipping wars.

  • Telltale please don't force a Sasha or Fiona romance just cause it's all over this forum please no

    This is the one time I actually want to be trolled.

  • puzzleboxpuzzlebox Telltale Alumni

    Haha... I really need to be careful with every single keystroke!

  • I have to agree. As much as I liked to watch all the teasing for both parties I'm not sure I want to see something serious.

    But it will be hilarious if it's not what we imagined at all and it will be, say... I dunno, Vaugnh and either of girls or something like that. And it will ruin it all for everyone here. xD

  • My bets are still on robo-love.

    Gortys x Loader Bot or Gortys x Claptrap

    Come on, the little guy deserves it!

  • Relax, you guys. I bet Telltale is just trolling us and it'll be something like Gortys x Loader Bot.

  • Gorty: But Daaaad, I'm 16 minutes old! I'm not a kid anymore!

    Rhys: I don't care! You're not dating Loader Bot!

  • Rhyona will obviously be the ultimate one, I mean come on guys, let's be serious here...Well, at least there will be a reference :D

  • The reference to "love is in the air" will more than likely be between Gortys Core and Loader Bot.

    It's not inconceivable that there will be some romantic moments between characters such as Sasha, Rhys, August, etc....but as some people have said, these will more than likely be either a romantic "fantasy" (much in the way when Rhys embellished his negotiation skills), or it will be a devastating failure for humors sake.

    On that note, I am liking that we are getting this roguish group of specialists: Robots, con artist, weapon specialist, brains, cyborg...together they nearly make 1/4 of what a Vault Hunter can do!

  • People say Core will be voiced by a woman, so... yes, robo-love. However, Rhysha/Rhyiona is possible too.

    My bets are still on robo-love. Gortys x Loader Bot or Gortys x Claptrap Come on, the little guy deserves it!

  • I could totally see it being an embellished scene where everybody just suddenly finds Rhys irresistible (seeing as he's been shipped with practically every single character and it would be really cool if TT referenced all the shipping that's been going on)

    They are a strange bunch of misfits that I love very much. :)

  • What if it's a Robo-Threeway?

    Loaderbot + Gortysbot + Claptrap

    Wait, do we count Rhys as part Bot too? He's like half-bot right? Maybe Gortys bot falls for Rhys' right arm? Lol

    Using the letters in Laura's tweet, you can spell out both "Fiona" and "Sasha". Also, you can make all but the first letter of Vaughn's name. That might not seem like much, but wait. There's a "u". What comes after that? A "v". Vaughn. But there is no "r" to make "Rhys". However, the emoticon at the end of the tweet only has one normal eye. You know what else only has one normal eye? Rhys. Also, Jack.

    Rhys x Everyone confirmed.

  • Jack also implied that other, more intimate parts of Rhys are also cybernetic.

    But as for a full-blown roborgy... Just:

  • I'll have to have another listen when I do my pre ep 3 playthrough - to be honest it makes absolutely zero sense why Rhys would do that to himself, so you're probably right and I'm just highly prone to eyebrow.gif levels of suggestion!

    As much as i want Rhysha to happen. I'm kinda starting to think it wont. but that Rhyiona wont either. Before i get shot for saying that , just think about it . so far this game has been based around a comical and exciting story .Its been bloody and Funny so far, but not romantic. Its not a dating sim.It's a borderlands game. But hopefully i'm wrong

  • It's just first Jack was talking about all the Atlas tech around them and how there are no turrets, no automated defences, then said he knows that he's our hero plus that part "just try not to wet yorself, you might short something out down there" and proceeded to talk about taking over the facility and stuff.

    and I'm just highly prone to eyebrow.gif levels of suggestion!

    Aren't we all. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

    Oh, no, it definitely could happen.

    Its not a dating sim.It's a borderlands game.

    There's serious moments. They could slow down the story to have a somewhat serious, romantic moment if they really wanted to. Or they could have something funny and cute.

    But honestly, I mind that much if neither happened. It'd actually be kind of cool if Rhys pursued someone and got rejected or betrayed, actually.

  • I kind of want a choice like the one in Persona: Innocent Sin. A character confesses their love for you in front of the entire group, and you can say you love them or name one of the other group members.

    "I'm in love with Jack."

    XD

    Imagine the reactions.

  • I admire your optimism.

    What if "Love is in the air" will be about someone just puts in the song....

    Love is in the air
    Everywhere I look around
    Love is in the air
    Every sight and every sound

    Altough I could see a Vaughn and Sasha thing, but it's so funny how the shipping topics are the best viewed. :D

  • Rhysha is already confirmed guys. Where have y'all been?

  • I'm on my phone, so I can't edit this, but Jesus Christ my typos piss me off. I don't know what kind of shitty processing disorder I must have, because they're relentless. Just pretend I didn't slaughter the English language, thx.
