The developers of Mass Effect 2 have stressed all along that your decisions in Mass Effect matter and will carry over to the sequel. For example if you killed Wrex then he's dead for good. If you treated Joker poorly, that may come back to haunt you. So here's something that shocked me; I was playing the Bring Down the Sky DLC and at the end I [spoiler] decided to let Balak live in return for the chance to save Kate Bowman. After I disabled the bombs and opened the cell that she was held in, the game snapped to a conversation. In it Kate told Shepard that she couldn't believe he would let Balak go in order to save her. And then it happened; the Love theme played in the background. I thought something would happen. After all, the only other time I heard it was with Gunnery Chief Ashley Williams. Instead though, Kate opted out of the conversation to tend to her wounded brother. So I wondered; is that something that they will expand upon in Mass Effect 2? They definitely had something going on there.
Will she be in Mass Effect 2?
