So I am doing a full mass effect lets play

[Aerozord]

By that I mean from game 1 to game 3, doing it now because there is a lot of game here and want to only spend like an hour or two a day on it. Since I managed to finally get recording software to work, by that I mean I did a test recording and spliced commentary, I thought I'd share it as what might be the first complete mass effect run.

So I wanted to know what people would like to see in it. Whether to be renegade, paragon, or just focus on the RP (I am ok with changing between games but wont be changing it mid-way).

As well was major choices. Who to romance, if anyone, what to do about wrex, which human dies, ect.

Oh and of course what kind of build, gender, ect.

My personal preferances are male (because I think Tali only has interest in males and she's my prefered LI), and assault specialist. Usually just default appearance because I dont really care. But thats just my leanings if there is something in particular others want to see I want to kno

Totally hot redheaded Femshep. Renegade Vanguard/Infiltrator. Garrus for LI (until Tali becomes available for lesmance in ME3). Kill Wrex yourself. Kill the Rachni. Let the council burn. Wipe out the Geth. Encourage the Quarians to retake their homeworld. Have the bare minimum of survivors from the suicide mission. Solve all other problems with harsh justice/pure violence. Make the universe as horrible and dark as you possibly can.


Why? Because why the fuck not?!

EDIT; Also, let TIM have the Collector base, because that can't possibly go wrong..

[Osterbaum]

For starters I'm only gonna vote on the build up:
Female renegade Shepard
Spacer and Ruthless
Vanguard

Why? Because why the fuck not?!

Also because I never play renegade, and I want to see the difference.

you are harsh. though bare minimum number of survivors for the suicide mission is zero, possible for even Shepard to die on it.

Yeah I know, but you can't continue from that save. So minimum is really 1 (Tali, if you want to keep her romanced).

It IS possibly to kill everyone except Shep, by leaving Zaeeds loyalty mission until after the suicide mission, then killing him there, but he's a dlc character and I'm not sure if he's available on whatever you're playing on.

I dont know. I did get that DLC, I had the code for all the free content, but that was all on my old harddrive. Depends on if the code carries with the save, or with my XBL account.

I vote no on killing everyone. But we might be getting a bit ahead of ourselves here since we haven't even started the first game.

[Aerozord]

lets focus on the major game 1 choices, if its a choice for a side mission I will make it based on the paragon/renegade option. Though do keep love interest in mind, because if you want Shep to be loyal it means not having anyone game one, or doing what I did and pick ashley then kill her

[Osterbaum]

Well if we do female then Liara and if male then Ashley.

[Revising Ocelot]

If Mass Effect 3 turns out to be a steaming pile of an elephant's upset stomach aftermath, kill off everyone in the suicide mission in ME2. Taking a bullet to dodge a bullet.

Otherwise, keep everyone alive. Except Kaidan. If you're going for male Shep, use the default look because I've never seen a custom male Shep that didn't look like the aforementioned elephant.
