Curate, connect, and discover
Yes, Liara T’Soni gets a lot of the spot light in the trilogy, but the way some of her haters demonize her as selfish is gross. Liara comforts you multiple times about the loss of Earth, expresses sorrow about the fall of Palavan, and her reaction to Thessia falling is more about guilt for not doing more for her people than “woe is me!”
Yes her confrontation scene with Javik is poorly written, but it’s honestly an extension of Bioware dumbing Liara down and mocking her academic career studying the Protheans in order to build up Javik, who I actually do like.
