Mass Effect Questionnaire! {Spoilers}

[Syri]

Sooo! I'm going to assume that everyone here is a Mass Effect fan to some degree (very bold and daring to accuse you all of such, I know!). Anyways, what did people like about the games? Dislike about them? This thread is devoted to discussing all that stuff and contains a little questionnaire to fill out too! Though I suppose it's more like one of those memes you find on deviantart. Oh, and a great way to kill some time.

I'll get to filling one out later (when I have some more time), but for now, I'd like to see the answers you guys have to these questions.

[The Illusive Man]

Overall[/size]
1. Favorite Mass Effect game?
I liked Mass Effect 2 and 3 for different reasons. Two for the squadmates and other characters and three for the emotional investment I felt with my Shepard. I've only played up to Feros on ME1 on account that I only have gotten a 360 in recent months, but I do like driving the Mako.

2. Paragon or Renegade? Maybe Paragade or Renegon?
I have two Paragons(male and female) that I beat ME2 with and my Femshep is Paragon who has beaten ME3. I have one renegon male as of ME2, and two Renegades still in ME2.

3. Femshep or Maleshep?
I prefer Femshep, but I have Male Shepards too. I like Jennifer Hale's performance more though.

4. Who are your top five favorite squadmates?
1. Garrus (duh)
2. Miranda (everyone is always hating on her. I like her character)
3.Ashley (she's a cool bro who tells awesome stories)
4. Wrex (He's so BAMF)
5. Javik (Epic troll)

5. Favorite race?
Turians. Dem mandibles and dat voice.

Mass Effect 1
1. Feros: Did you kill the colonists or save them?
I saved 14/16 cause I'm good like that.

2. Noveria: Did you save the rachni queen or kill her?
In the ME2 version for the PS3, you get a comic that fills you in on plot points you missed. My first game, I killed the queen, which I learned was actually evil after two more playthroughs of ME2. My renegade FemShep picked to save her though.

3. Virmire: Who got out of there alive? Ashley or Kaidan? Did you hold the line and save Kirrahe?
Paragon Femshep: Kaidan, Paragon MaleShep: Ashley, Renegon MaleShep: Ashley, Renegade Femshep: I believe Kaidan, I don't remember, Renegade MaleShep: Ashley. (All of this was the comic choices from ME2). Kirrahe was not on Sur'Kesh in ME3 for me, so I believe he is dead from my PS3 imports.

4. Conrad Verner: BFF or the biggest pain in the arse ever?
Conrad is cool. Only came across him once so far in ME1. PS3 ME2 seems to think that I killed him off I guess.

5. Khalisah Bint Sinan al-Jilani: Did you answer her questions or just punch her in the face?
Paragons answered her, my renegades wern't as nice.

6. Love Interest: Did you romance anyone? If so, who?
Paragon Femshep: Kaidan, Paragon MaleShep: No one, Renegon MaleShep: Ashley, Renegade Femshep: No one, Renegade Maleshep: No one.

7. Council: Save them or blow them up?
My two paragons and I believe my Renegon saved them, my renegades did not.

8. Favorite & least favorite (if you have one) squadmate?
Wrex and Garrus or Kaidan for favorites. I never really brought Liara around, but I don't think I have a least favorite.

9. Favorite & least favorite NPC/side quest/etc.?
Lemme get back to this one later when I beat ME1 for reals lol.

10. Anderson or Udina for human councilor?
My paragons picked Anderson and I think my evil sided ones chose Udina.

BONUS: Did you like being constantly mindraped by asari throughout the game?
I avoided that like the plague, unless Liara was involved, then I couldn't. D :


Mass Effect 2[/size]
1. Shepard dies, gets resurrected, and is now working for Cerberus! What was your reaction?
I had watched ME2 stuff before and all that, so I knew what was happening. Instead, my reaction to hearing ME2 was coming on the PS3 was me freaking out in my chair happily.

2. Horizon: Your reaction to the Virmire survivor's unwillingness to listen to Shepard about the whole Cerberus situation?
Kaidan: GTFO MAN. I'M SORRY I COULDN'T CALL YOU WHILE I WAS DEAD. THEY DON'T HAVE PHONES IN HEAVEN. THEN YOU SEND ME A LETTER THAT REALLY ISN'T AN APOLOGY? FFFFFF YOU.

Ashley: At least your nicer about it and send a more heart-felt letter with Tennyson. UNLIKE SOME PEOPLE, KAIDAN.

3. Collector Ship: The Illusive Man set Shepard up. What did you think?
Bro. Stoppit.

4. Derelict Reaper: Holy crap a friendly geth!? How did that go over?
LEGION IS MY BFF

5. Collector Base: Did everyone live? Who got assigned to do what? Did anyone die?
My three completed games had me switching people for things. It was either Miranda or Garrus for leaders, Jack or Samara for biotics, Tali/Kasumi/Legion in the vents and Mordin always escorted the crew back. All three games (two paragons, renegon) had everyone living, including the crew.

6. Who was your favorite squadmate? Your least favorite?
Garrus, Miranda, Zaeed, Grunt, Samara for favorites and Jacob is least. C'mon, he's Jacob. All he has going for him is the priiize.

7. Love Interest: Did you stay loyal to your ME1 LI if you had one? Or did you choose one of the 3 new romances?
Paragon Femshep: HELLLZ NO. I was set on tapping Garrus from the get-go.
Paragon MaleShep: I canoned that he waited for Tali and finally got with her.
Renegon MaleShep: I was going to have him cheat on Ashley with Miranda, but decided to stay loyal.
Renegade Femshep: Romanced Thane (that'll be fun when she's done ME2 <_<)
Renegade FemShep: Will romance Miranda.

8. What was your favorite loyalty mission? Your least favorite?
All of them besides Jacob's. I really liked Garrus', Miranda's, Kasumi's and Tali's missions though a lot.
9. Khalisah Bint Sinan al-Jilani: Answer her questions or punch a bish?
Friendlies liked her, ebils punched.

10. Conrad Verner: Still friends or did you shoot him in the foot?
He was not in any of my games for PS3. I assume he died with ME2's ps3 canon.

BONUS: What is your favorite store on the Citadel?
The gift shop.


Mass Effect 3[/size]
1. James Vega (aka DudeBro), Javik, and Diana Allers: What did you think about them? Did you get the From Ashes DLC to get a Prothean or did you not want to pay 10 bucks for an extra squadmate? How about having Allers on your ship and getting a new squaddie (Vega)?

I was skeptical about Vega when I saw his picture in a magazine and was like 'ono, Jersey Shore' but he eventually grew on me and I liked him a lot even if I hardly brought him anywhere. I loved Javik and I think I had a code to get him because I pre-ordered and Allers, eh. Just her and her Battletits.

2. Virmire Survivor: They get beat up pretty bad. What was your reaction?
Kaidan: LOLOLOLOLOL.
Ashley: NOOOOOOOOO.

3. Tuchanka: Did you cure the genophage, or did you sabotage it? How did you like the introduction of Eve and the perspective of the female krogan? What was your opinion of the mission overall?
Well, my Paragons have beaten this part and both cured the genophage by keeping Maelon's research (my ebils did not, which will make me sad with Eve's death). I liked Eve a lot and the perspective she gave. Some of the missions on Tuchanka were biches (like the turian bomb one), but I liked the planet and overall mission.

4. Citadel: Here you get introduced to Kai Leng: what did you think about him? Did the salarian councilor get saved by anyone? What about the VS pulling a gun on Shepard to defend Udina - what did you think about that?

Kai Leng, that ho. Thane saved the councilor and I was like 'D:' when he got stabbed. My two paragons sheps got past this part, and handled it good, having their survivors kill Udina after he tried to shoot the Asari. Finally, Kaidan did something! (but then bitched about it for more hours, typical).

5. Rannoch: Did you broker peace between the geth and the quarians? Or did you have to blow one of them up? What did you think about getting to talk to a Reaper, as well as being able to visit and reclaim the quarian homeworld?
My Femshep has gotten this far and she brokered peace with them both after first going to side with the Geth, but then peace was an option. I felt really bad for the Geth after going into their brains. Dat reaper and I was like 'amg Arizona' when I saw the homeworld.

6. Thessia: How was learning more about asari beginnings? What did you think about the asari keeping that Prothean beacon a secret? What was your opinion on Kai Leng's appearance in the temple... and how did you react to Shepard's defeat and the following cutscene where you watch Thessia pretty much get destroyed?

Interesting about all the Prothean stuff and DAMN IT KAI LENG FFFFFFF. I really liked the emotions that played over my Shep's face at that moment of utter defeat they felt.

7. Cerberus Base: Did you like learning more about EDI's past as well as the Lazarus Project? How about the encounter with the Illusive Man and Kai Leng?

I liked the learning part and was so glad to kill Kai Leng after I was delayed in hitting the renegade option on my Femshep.
"You're sitting in my chair."

8. Assault on Earth: How was saying goodbye to all of your squadmates? Wasn't it fun getting assaulted by thousands of banshees and brutes?

GARRUS BABY, I LOVE YOU TOO AND I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE TURIAN/HUMAN CHILDREN WITH YOU.
Ogod, the banshees.
9. Beam-Hopping onto the Citadel: What did you think about that? How did the encounter with the Illusive Man and Anderson go for you?
I had no idea wtf was happening and I made the Illusive Man go out like all villians in ME, headshot suicide.

10. Starchild & your favorite color: What did you think about the introduction of the Catalyst? Did you like the endings or not? What was your opinion on the sudden plot twist at the end of the game?

Yo, organics. We're a group of synthetic machines coming to kill you to save you from the death of synthetics that you'll make. UMAD? /logic

Damn Starchild and his logic.
11. Red, green, or blue: Which ending did you choose, and which is your personal favorite? Destroy, synthesis, control, or the secret refusal ending?

My femshep paragon has been my only shep to beat the game and she picked destroy, because it felt like the right thing for Shepard, the character who has spent nearly three years (counting death) fighting the Reapers. I felt bad because the geth and Edi would die, but I still did it.

12. Extended Cut DLC: Did it change your opinion on the endings or not? What did you thinkabout it?

Nope, still picked Destroy and it was the better of the options after more explaination was given by the Starchild about the options. The EC did give me closure though, and I liked it overall. And no, you can't convince me Synthesis was the better option. It's creepy and abnormal (I don't hate you though if you picked that though). Or that Control was better, still creepy and abnormal.

On an unrelated note, GARRUS BABY, COME LOOKING FOR ME (I MEAN MY SHEP FFF). ;_;

13. Favorite squadmate? Least favorite?
Garrus, Javik, Liara. None least favorite.

14. Love Interest: Did you get to witness a catfight (if it could be called such) or did you stay loyal to your LI? Maybe you tried one of the new LIs? What did you think about your Shep's romance... and what was your personal favorite romance?

Since I've only beaten ME3 once and I 'cheated' on Kaidan and it wasn't really a catfight. He just whined. My other sheps will, however, stay loyal to their LIs and I liked the new homosexual LIs even if none of my Shepard's roll like that (Cortez was my femshep's bff though).

15. Meeting old squaddies: Did you like their cameo appearances in some of the side missions? Did you think some were poorly handled, or did Bioware do a good job with all of them?

THANE, MORDIN, LEGION: Y U ALL DIE?!
Jack: Guuurl, you looking good.
Miranda: Still love you.
Jacob: LOL. He tapped Female Hawke and got her pregnant, way to sterotype the only black guy in ME, Bioware. He hit it and quit it with Shepard, that ho.
Kasumi: Dat big, stupid, Jellyfish.
Zaeed: He still cool.
Grunt: I WAS SO WORRIED WHEN I THOUGHT HE DIED ON THAT ONE MISSION. THEN HE POPPED OUT, HOORAY!
Wrex: He be getting Eve preggo.

16. Khalisah & Conrad: Did you punch her again or get her as a war asset? What happened with Conrad?

Conrad was not in my game, I was nice to Khalisah on my femshep but did not get her as a war asset, my male paragon did however. No idea how.

BONUS: Do you think Shepard would make an excellent pedobear? Stalking unsuspecting children through an ominous forest... On a more serious note, how about the Indoctrination Theory, did it seem more valid than Bioware's ending in your opinion? What were your thoughts on the fan-crafted theory?

When I saw a very detailed video on the Theory, I thought Bioware could have done so much with it. Alas, they did not and they missed a mark for very clever writing for not incorperating it into the EC. I still think it would have given more impact to the ending had it been proven and I really liked the Theory.

I still like the EC for what it is though, but Bioware missed the mark with the Indoctrination Theory.

Bloody hell this was longer to fill out than job applications.

Overall[/size]
1. Favorite Mass Effect game?
ME1

2. Paragon or Renegade? Maybe Paragade or Renegon?
Paragrade!

3. Femshep or Maleshep?
FEMSHEP >

4. Who are your top five favorite squadmates?
Garrus (<3_<3), Miranda, Wrex, Grunt, James. Is it obvious that I play an Adept and need one squaddie for overload and one squaddie as a tank?

5. Favorite race?
TURIANS

Mass Effect 1
1. Feros: Did you kill the colonists or save them?
Saved them aaaaall.

2. Noveria: Did you save the rachni queen or kill her?
Saved her tooooo.

3. Virmire: Who got out of there alive? Ashley or Kaidan?Did you hold the line and save Kirrahe?
KAIDAN! Because my Femshep always romanced him, even if she was just going to cheat on him with Garrus. Also, I saved Kirrahe because I'm a completionist.

4. Conrad Verner: BFF or the biggest pain in the arse ever?
BIGGEST PAIN IN THE ARSE EVER. But I was still nice to him.

5. Khalisah Bint Sinan al-Jilani: Did you answer her questions or just punch her in the face?
Answered her questions. I honestly didn't know you could punch her until, like, ME3.

6. Love Interest: Did you romance anyone? If so, who?
KAAAAAIDAAAAN. Come here by squishy, whiny love.

7. Council: Save them or blow them up?
Saved them. Although one PT I blew them up and almost cried when the asari on the Destiny Ascension said "They closed the comm channel" (or whatever) and then the ship proceeded to get ripped apart. So sad.

8. Favorite & least favorite (if you have one) squadmate?
Favourite squaddie was Wrex (sorry, Garrus, you got cooler in ME2) and lease favourite Ash. She was kinda useless to me.

9. Favorite & least favorite NPC/side quest/etc.?
Favourite sidequest was Major Kyle, least favourite was finding minerals. I was rather ambivalent about most NPCs but I suppose Joker was one of my favourites.

10. Anderson or Udina for human councilor?
ANDERSON. Udina can go and suck phallus.

BONUS: Did you like being constantly mindraped by asari throughout the game?
Yeah, baby, give it to me again. But, really, no.

Mass Effect 2[/size]
1. Shepard dies, gets resurrected, and is now working for Cerberus! What was your reaction?
I was spoiled before the game came out =/ And I'd forgotten who Cerberus was anyway. I don't remember what my reaction was anymore.

2. Horizon: Your reaction to the Virmire survivor's unwillingness to listen to Shepard about the whole Cerberus situation?
F*CK. YOU. KAIDAN. COME BACK HERE AND LOVE MEEEEEE D:

3. Collector Ship: The Illusive Man set Shepard up. What did you think?
dalatrasshole. Not surprised. Going to kill you one day.

4. Derelict Reaper: Holy crap a friendly geth!? How did that go over?
LNSNVS;LINVSLNV;NVL'SKMDVKJSDBVILSFKMNBLJDSV OMG THIS IS SO F*CKING AWESOME!!!!!!!

5. Collector Base: Did everyone live? Who got assigned to do what? Did anyone die?
Everyone lived *smug* I'm just that good. Garrus was the first team leader, Miranda the second team leader, Tali in the ducts, Mordin back with the survivors (saved all of them too), Samara on the biotic barrier, and final team was Garrus + Grunt.

6. Who was your favorite squadmate? Your least favorite?
Favourite was Garrus least favourite was Samara. That's gamplay-wise, though. Personality wise, favourite was Garrus (followed closely by Grunt... or Legion... IDK!) and least favourite... hmm, I didn't dislike any of them. I suppose Jacob was the one I skipped through most of the dialogue for.

7. Love Interest: Did you stay loyal to your ME1 LI if you had one? Or did you choose one of the 3 new romances?
FEMSHEP GOT IT ON WITH GARRUS AS SOON AS SHE COULD. Yeah, Kaidan, that's what you get for being a douche and then sending that GODDAMN EMAIL.

8. What was your favorite loyalty mission? Your least favorite?
Oh, I can't choose! So I'll just say why I liked a bunch of them. Garrus's because I was invested in his story, Samara's because she had to kill her daughter, Thane's because the confrontation was sad, Miranda's because she reunited with her sister and cried, Jacob's because he found out what really happened to his dad, Grunt's because WE KILLED A F*CKING THRESHER MAW ON FOOT (and Femshep headbutted a krogan), Jack's because we got to learn more about her past, Kasumi's because the greybox scene made me bawl like a baby, Mordin's because we saw how conflicted he was about the genophage, Zaeed's because he actually seemed human for once, Legion's because the geth suddenly seemed not evil, and Tali's because we had to try and convince them not to exile her. Oh... I think that's all of them. I have no least favourite!

9. Khalisah Bint Sinan al-Jilani: Answer her questions or punch a bish?
PUNCH THE B*TCH. Perhaps the only renegade choice I make automatically.

10. Conrad Verner: Still friends or did you shoot him in the foot?
We still cool, bro. Just STFU.

BONUS: What is your favorite store on the Citadel?
Whichever one you buy Fornax from.


Mass Effect 3[/size]
1. James Vega (aka DudeBro), Javik, and Diana Allers: What did you think about them? Did you get the From Ashes DLC to get a Prothean or did you not want to pay 10 bucks for an extra squadmate? How about having Allers on your ship and getting a new squaddie (Vega)?
MY LOVE FOR VEGA KNOWS NO BOUNDS. But everyone should know this by now. Javik was awesome. I got the CE version anyway but it was a serious dick move to make people pay for that DLC. Allers was meh. She had a weird face. I never talked to her, although I let her on the ship for the Galactic Readiness.

2. Virmire Survivor: They get beat up pretty bad. What was your reaction?
GOOD. DON'T DOUBT ME AGAIN. But here, baby, lemme patch you up and then agonise over who I'm going to choose to screw before the final mission.

3. Tuchanka: Did you cure the genophage, or did you sabotage it? How did you like the introduction of Eve and the perspective of the female krogan? What was your opinion of the mission overall?
I cured it and cried like a baby when Mordin died. His singing! GAH! Eve was badass. I wish she was a squaddie.

4. Citadel: Here you get introduced to Kai Leng: what did you think about him? Did the salarian councilor get saved by anyone? What about the VS pulling a gun on Shepard to defend Udina - what did you think about that?
Kai Leng = lolwat. He was so badly developed, so badly written, so badly placed. So much wasted potential and they dropped him in to be a troll. GTFO of my game anime boy. The Salarian Concilor was saved by Thane (WHYYY THAAAANE?! D:) and when the VS pulled a gun on me I was like "ARE YOU SERIOUS, BIOWARE? HAVEN'T I BEEN THROUGH ENOUGH WITH KAIDAN?!" and I convinced him not to shoot. Then I went and watched vids where a squaddie shot him and I cried.

5. Rannoch: Did you broker peace between the geth and the quarians? Or did you have to blow one of them up? What did you think about getting to talk to a Reaper, as well as being able to visit and reclaim the quarian homeworld?
Hell yeah I brokered peace. Completionist, remember? Talking to the reaper was badass. I told him we're coming for them and then strutted around my house cos I just backtalked a REAPER. Yeah.

6. Thessia: How was learning more about asari beginnings? What did you think about the asari keeping that Prothean beacon a secret? What was your opinion on Kai Leng's appearance in the temple... and how did you react to Shepard's defeat and the following cutscene where you watch Thessia pretty much get destroyed?
PFFT. ASARI. WTF. SRSLY. WTF. Why did you keep that? You deserved it. Shoulda told Shep earlier, than maybe you wouldn't have ALL DIED. Kai Leng at the temple was stupid, as was Shep's defeat. Shep's taken down a gunship before. Also, damn you plot armour. My weak adept shoulda walked right through him. And the cut scene was really sad but I was also mad at the asari so whatever.

7. Cerberus Base: Did you like learning more about EDI's past as well as the Lazarus Project? How about the encounter with the Illusive Man and Kai Leng?
OMG EDI'S PAST WAS A GREAT CALLBACK TO ME1! I was happy. Also, Lazarus Project still made no sense but whatever I just liked hearing Kaidan finally realise that, DUH, I WAS DEAD, YOU ASS. TIM was a pain in the ass, not being there, and Kai Leng was an even bigger pain in the ass. I stabbed him. "That's for Thane, you SOB". YEAH. TAKE IT.

8. Assault on Earth: How was saying goodbye to all of your squadmates? Wasn't it fun getting assaulted by thousands of banshees and brutes?
OMG THIS WAS SO SAD I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY BIG, UGLY TEARS I CRIED THROUGH THIS. And, yes, it was very fun to get assaulted by thousands of banshees and brutes so I could not feel like such a baby for crying so much through the speech and the goodbyes.

9. Beam-Hopping onto the Citadel: What did you think about that? How did the encounter with the Illusive Man and Anderson go for you?
TIM was an ass. He killed himself and I was happy. Nice callback to Saren. Anderson's "You did good, kid" had me bawling again. Basically the last half of ME3 just had a lot of ugly tears and feelz everywhere.

10. Starchild & your favorite color: What did you think about the introduction of the Catalyst? Did you like the endings or not? What was your opinion on the sudden plot twist at the end of the game?
I didn't really care all that much. I knew there would be a twist and some big choice you have to make because it's Bioware.

11. Red, green, or blue: Which ending did you choose, and which is your personal favorite? Destroy, synthesis, control, or the secret refusal ending?
Honestly, I chose synthesis at first. I know some people really, really hate it because it's so invasive but whatever. It's my favourite ending. I only chose destroy to see Shep take a breath. The control ending felt a little dumb because in the long run I just expected the Reapers to come back once Shep had lived long enough to forget her humanity. The secret refusal ending was equally unappealing and handled amateurishly, but I liked Liara's beacon that she left behind for the next cycle. That was the only good thing about it.

12. Extended Cut DLC: Did it change your opinion on the endings or not? What did you thinkabout it?
I was rather ambivalent about the ending. I liked some bits, disliked others. The EC didn't do much. The extra explanation was nice. Probably my favourite bit was seeing your LI get on the ship before the beam (KAIDAN. GARRUS. VEGA. YOUR FACES. THEY HAUNT ME.) and the ending where your LI puts your name on the wall (I'M NOT DEAD! COME FIND ME!).

13. Favorite squadmate? Least favorite?
VEGA I needed a tank, like, all the time. Least favourite was probably Javik because he was kinda useless to my adept.

14. Love Interest: Did you get to witness a catfight (if it could be called such) or did you stay loyal to your LI? Maybe you tried one of the new LIs? What did you think about your Shep's romance... and what was your personal favorite romance?
WTF BIOWARE WHERE WAS MY CONFRONTATION A LA ME1?! I am disappoint son. I had the cheated-on-Kaidan-with-Garrus PT and once stuck with Garrus and once went with Kaidan. I liked both D: Don't make me choose!

15. Meeting old squaddies: Did you like their cameo appearances in some of the side missions? Did you think some were poorly handled, or did Bioware do a good job with all of them?
I wish some of them could have been squaddies again but the reasons for why they weren't I think were perfectly legitimate. I didn't mind them overly much and I do think they were handled well, honestly, but a lot of the criticism came from the LIs who weren't squaddies and I got both my romances as squaddies so... whatever.

16. Khalisah & Conrad: Did you punch her again or get her as a war asset? What happened with Conrad?
I got her as a war asset and (completionist!) I got Conrad's help too. Paragrade!

BONUS: Do you think Shepard would make an excellent pedobear? Stalking unsuspecting children through an ominous forest... On a more serious note, how about the Indoctrination Theory, did it seem more valid than Bioware's ending in your opinion? What were your thoughts on the fan-crafted theory?
MShep with his rapeface, definitely. On a more serious note, IT was interesting but... uh... ultimately I didn't care. The last ten minutes was such a tiny part of the game for me that I wasn't that bothered.

Overall[/size]
1. Favorite Mass Effect game?
Mass Effect 2 blew me away in comparison to Mass Effect 1, there were so many improvements, new places to see...and thankfully, more love interests to choose from. In ME 1, you only got two, and in 2, you get 3 romance options per male/female Shep.

2. Paragon or Renegade? Maybe Paragade or Renegon?
I usually try to go Paragon (good side) with games like this so I was mostly Paragon with a hint of renegade.

3. Femshep or Maleshep?
Maleshep. I experimented with Femshep. While Jennifer Hale's voice acting is better than Mark Meer's, the criticism he gets for it isn't necessary. He does a good job considering.

4. Who are your top five favorite squadmates?
Garrus
Liara
Jack
Thane
Kaidan

5. Favorite race?
Asari all the way ;o

Mass Effect 1
1. Feros: Did you kill the colonists or save them?
I tried to save as many colonists as I could, but that neutralizing grenade they give you eventually runs out :I

2. Noveria: Did you save the rachni queen or kill her?
I saved the queen. She presented her case to me and being the nice guy that I am, freed her from her prison.

3. Virmire: Who got out of there alive? Ashley or Kaidan? Did you hold the line and save Kirrahe?
I saved Ashley mostly because she was female o.o hated that she was racist though. I felt like she could be redeemed eventually. Now though, saving Kaidan is what I do because he's one of your best buddies ;o

I admit...I thought Kirrahe was supposed to die because it happened in every single playthrough, but apparently, it can be done if you do this and this and that...I didn't scour every inch of the base, so I missed pretty much everything except the two gimmes before the base.

Basically..he died many times over because of my ignorance D:

4. Conrad Verner: BFF or the biggest pain in the arse ever?
Conrad Verner...there's a reason why his wife left him <.<

5. Khalisah Bint Sinan al-Jilani: Did you answer her questions or just punch her in the face?
The very first time I answered her questions because I wanted to be honest, but then Hackett was like "That was a no-no, Shepard." Yeah :I

6. Love Interest: Did you romance anyone? If so, who?
Liara, hands down. Ashley was attractive but her personality was shit.

7. Council: Save them or blow them up?
First playthrough, I blew them up. Second, I saved them. But what's the point, really? All they say is, "Reapers? We have dismissed that claim." Throughout all three freaking games. Like really?

8. Favorite & least favorite (if you have one) squadmate?
Garrus, no contest. Tali was my least favorite. I never really used her.

9. Favorite & least favorite NPC/side quest/etc.?
Dr. Hart side quest with Garrus. I found it interesting. To be honest, though, the side quests felt like more of a chore than anything.

10. Anderson or Udina for human councilor?
Why would anyone choose Udina? Anderson all the way, he'll do the right thing.

BONUS: Did you like being constantly mindraped by asari throughout the game?
Oh hell yus! ;D


Mass Effect 2[/size]
1. Shepard dies, gets resurrected, and is now working for Cerberus! What was your reaction?
Mew? o.o

Anyway, I was kinda disappointed that every Paragon dialogue choice with The Illusive Man was basically saying he doesn't like Cerberus. I liked him as a character so I wanted to be on his side.

2. Horizon: Your reaction to the Virmire survivor's unwillingness to listen to Shepard about the whole Cerberus situation?
Why you no listen? :I

3. Collector Ship: The Illusive Man set Shepard up. What did you think?
SON OF A BITCH!!!

4. Derelict Reaper: Holy crap a friendly geth!? How did that go over?
I really liked the twist it presented and holy snizz, it talked o.o

5. Collector Base: Did everyone live? Who got assigned to do what? Did anyone die?
No, Legion, Mordin and Miranda died.

Legion died before we even got there. Mordin died because I sent him through the vents and he couldn't close the damn door in time. Miranda died because she wasn't loyal. I had sided with Jack during her little argument and she was still sore about it. And no, I didn't have enough Paragon/Renegade to side with them both.

I had Garrus lead both fireteams. He's the best squaddie for it because he's the next best leader on the Normandy next to Shepard. But I swear, I near had a heart attack when he got shot, but he was okay, so it was all good.

I had Grunt lead the rescued back to the Normandy.

I had Samara do the biotic field.

And I took Garrus and Jack with me to face The Machine thing.

6. Who was your favorite squadmate? Your least favorite?
Jack. Mmm, Jack

Jacob was my least fave o.o

7. Love Interest: Did you stay loyal to your ME1 LI if you had one? Or did you choose one of the 3 new romances?
I romanced Jack if you couldn't tell already mainly because there wasn't really a hint that you should stay loyal except the picture in your cabin, that you won't see if you don't look carefully.

8. What was your favorite loyalty mission? Your least favorite?
I loved Jack's loyalty mission, it was so emotional.

Thane's was my least favorite for the sole reason that your mission compass isn't really helpful when you're trying to follow the anti-human politician :I


9. Khalisah Bint Sinan al-Jilani: Answer her questions or punch a bish?
Answered her questions and was a kickass Paragon in the process =3

10. Conrad Verner: Still friends or did you shoot him in the foot?
I helped him...told you I was a nice guy <.<

BONUS: What is your favorite store on the Citadel?
All of them, I'm a store hoe.


Mass Effect 3[/size]
1. James Vega (aka DudeBro), Javik, and Diana Allers: What did you think about them? Did you get the From Ashes DLC to get a Prothean or did you not want to pay 10 bucks for an extra squadmate? How about having Allers on your ship and getting a new squaddie (Vega)?

I didn't care much for Vega. He could've been left out of the game and I wouldn't care. Same for Allers, she didn't contribute much to it anyway. The Prothean though, looked interesting, but I didn't get the DLC. Yeah >.<

2. Virmire Survivor: They get beat up pretty bad. What was your reaction?

Don't tell me you brought them back just to have them die, Bioware <.<

3. Tuchanka: Did you cure the genophage, or did you sabotage it? How did you like the introduction of Eve and the perspective of the female krogan? What was your opinion of the mission overall?
I cured the genophage. I thought it was high time the krogan got a second chance and under Wrex, I knew the krogan would be led right and not into a pointless fight. Hurr, rhyming for the win.

I liked Eve, even though you only conversed with her for such a brief period and both missions, I liked very much...but dem Reaper legs were annoying :I

4. Citadel: Here you get introduced to Kai Leng: what did you think about him? Did the salarian councilor get saved by anyone? What about the VS pulling a gun on Shepard to defend Udina - what did you think about that?
Kai Leng...meh. The salarian councilor got saved. As for the virmire survivor, I'm glad I didn't have to shoot them.

5. Rannoch: Did you broker peace between the geth and the quarians? Or did you have to blow one of them up? What did you think about getting to talk to a Reaper, as well as being able to visit and reclaim the quarian homeworld?
Since Legion died in Mass Effect 2, peace wasn't possible and since I sided with the Legion copy, the quarian race was obliterated and Tali killed herself. Fun times :I

Talking to the Reaper was pretty much like talking to Sovereign. Gah!

6. Thessia: How was learning more about asari beginnings? What did you think about the asari keeping that Prothean beacon a secret? What was your opinion on Kai Leng's appearance in the temple... and how did you react to Shepard's defeat and the following cutscene where you watch Thessia pretty much get destroyed?
Regarding Thessia, I wanted to explore it, not just have it be a battleground, so I was pretty miffed about that.

I only liked Kai Leng's appearance because I was able to talk to The Illusive Man again.

I wish I could've helped the asari that couldn't hear me =/

7. Cerberus Base: Did you like learning more about EDI's past as well as the Lazarus Project? How about the encounter with the Illusive Man and Kai Leng?
I just want to get this out there...attacking the Cerberus Base was one of the biggest pros in the game because in two, you're always wondering where The Illusive Man is and in three, that question is answered. I was so thankful for that.

I thought it was neat to learn about EDI's past as well as the project that rebuilt Shep.

I like any conversation with The Illusive Man, he's one of my top favorite characters of the trilogy. But damn, he was a hologram there too :I

8. Assault on Earth: How was saying goodbye to all of your squadmates? Wasn't it fun getting assaulted by thousands of banshees and brutes?

The beginning of the assault is like a seizure waiting to happen. All that flashing of bright light. My least favorite part of the game by far.

The goodbyes were touching and I liked them a lot, Garrus being my top favorite. I also liked the final speech Shepard gave as well as Wrex's.

9. Beam-Hopping onto the Citadel: What did you think about that? How did the encounter with the Illusive Man and Anderson go for you?

I was expecting my squad to be with me and wondering why the Cerberus Armor I was wearing was now black like the game's canon armor.

The Illusive Man in the flesh...indoctrinated. It was an epic conversation, but I didn't have enough Paragon/Renegade points for the last dialogue choice so my Shep had to shoot him. I think I prefer this to him shooting himself though.

10. Starchild & your favorite color: What did you think about the introduction of the Catalyst? Did you like the endings or not? What was your opinion on the sudden plot twist at the end of the game?
The endings were horrible, I have no favorites. The only twist there was was that there wasn't an ending befitting of Bioware. They do good work, so I was shocked by the lack of closure these "multiple" endings brought.

11. Red, green, or blue: Which ending did you choose, and which is your personal favorite? Destroy, synthesis, control, or the secret refusal ending?
Destroy, because I figured it was the best chance I had to see my love interest (Jack) again.

I liked the refusal ending but it was an automatic lose :I but at least there was closure in that one.

12. Extended Cut DLC: Did it change your opinion on the endings or not? What did you think about it?
The Destroy Extended Cut was well done and I liked it a lot. The Hackett voice over made it very effective, in my opinion.

13. Favorite squadmate? Least favorite?
Garrus/Liara as my faves
Vega as my least

14. Love Interest: Did you get to witness a catfight (if it could be called such) or did you stay loyal to your LI? Maybe you tried one of the new LIs? What did you think about your Shep's romance... and what was your personal favorite romance?
There was no catfight and I was disappointed :I but I ended up choosing Jack. It was a hard choice to make though, I loved both Liara and Jack.

15. Meeting old squaddies: Did you like their cameo appearances in some of the side missions? Did you think some were poorly handled, or did Bioware do a good job with all of them?
Reuniting with old squaddies was awesome. Morinth was poorly handled though.

16. Khalisah & Conrad: Did you punch her again or get her as a war asset? What happened with Conrad?
Got her as a war asset...couldn't find Conrad >.<

BONUS: Do you think Shepard would make an excellent pedobear? Stalking unsuspecting children through an ominous forest... On a more serious note, how about the Indoctrination Theory, did it seem more valid than Bioware's ending in your opinion? What were your thoughts on the fan-crafted theory?
I thought the Indoctrination Theory was possible, but I was just meh at that point, you know?

Overall[/size]
1. Favorite Mass Effect game?
Mass Effect 2. I've only gotten the chance to play the original Mass Effect once (D: Stole someone else's copy for a bit), I loved the overall feel of Mass Effect 3 but the ending and all of the other problems make it kind of eh, but Mass Effect 2 introduced some amazing squadmates, had a decent story, challenging combat (even if it lacked a Benezia-esque boss) and I've played it at least 4 times over.

2. Paragon or Renegade? Maybe Paragade or Renegon?
I'm a paragade. I try to do good things but man if people piss me off or get in the way I shoot them in the fase.

3. Femshep or Maleshep?
I played mostly as femshep for my ME2 runs, but stuck with a maleshep for all three games. So I guess I'm more of a MShep person. Besides, I'm one of the few who likes MSheps "idontgivea****" monotone voice to Hale's overemotional acting (I think she puts a little too much emotion into it. I'm a baddie).

4. Who are your top five favorite squadmates?
1. MORDIN <333
2. Ash!
3. Thane.
4. Wrex
5. Gurghhh can't decide. Samara/Jack/Tali tie. Wooo.

5. Favorite race?
Salarians. The men are all bug-eyed with high pitched voices (sooo cuuute) and the women are in charge. What could be better. Oh, and they're all a bunch of manipulative butts so that's a plus ( I love them so). Not to mention Mordin is one. So they win.

Mass Effect 1
1. Feros: Did you kill the colonists or save them?
I tried to save them all, buuut I wasted a lot of grenades so some of them got shot to death. \o/

2. Noveria: Did you save the rachni queen or kill her?
I saved her. She seemed sincere enough when she promised not to eat my face.

3. Virmire: Who got out of there alive? Ashley or Kaidan? Did you hold the line and save Kirrahe?
Omg Ashley is that even a question. I didn't like Kaidan... I don't know, his personality wasn't appealing at all and every time he went on about his biotic training I was like "WHERES WREX SO I CAN GO ASK HIM FOR A WAY BETTER STORY THAN THIS". Also, I sympathized with Ash's family connection, religious views, and also understood her mistrust for aliens. I mean heeell, humans aren't looked upon as equals, and with her history, it's perfectly understandable. Not to mention I loved her willingness to tell the truth and stick up for her opinions even if Shep is a totally dbag to her. <3 Ashhh. I could go on and on about her, lol.

I saved Kirrahe. He was a salarian and therefore it was my imperative to make sure I did everything in my powers to make sure he lived.

4. Conrad Verner: BFF or the biggest pain in the arse ever?
I guess I was weird but I thought it was totally awesome to have a crazy obsessed fan. xD! I signed my autograph and even let him take a picture. and I laughed so hard when he decided he wanted to become a spectre. xD!

5. Khalisah Bint Sinan al-Jilani: Did you answer her questions or just punch her in the face?
I used all the paragon options to pwn her with my eloquent words.

6. Love Interest: Did you romance anyone? If so, who?
ASHLEY~<3. Liara was weird, I told her I was already interested in Ash and she still was like 'LETS BE TOGETHER'. D: I mean she was nice and all but whoa gurl I don't want to go that far.

7. Council: Save them or blow them up?
I saved them, just because I wanted to see what happened if they were saved. Since in ME2 whenever you start a new game the Council is automatically dead, sooo... yeah.

8. Favorite & least favorite (if you have one) squadmate?
Ashley or Wrex, personality wise. Liara for combat. Biotics rocked.

Least favorite? Kaidan. Gtfo I'm the only sentinel allowed in this game! D:<

9. Favorite & least favorite NPC/side quest/etc.?
I liked Chorban the crazy keeper-obsessed salarian. Oh and Schells who was makin' the gambling cheating device. Too funny. xD ALSO HOLD THE LINE.

Least favorite would have to be... the UNC minerals one. I was soo pissed that was the only sidequest I was never able to finish. D:<

10. Anderson or Udina for human councilor?
I chose Anderson. Then Udina ended up becoming the actual councilor because I wanted to see if Miranda and Jacob would be all 'Whoooa dude you crazy' if I chose the option where Shep says Udina became councilor. But apparently that locks in whoever you made the councilor. Yeah. Sucks.

BONUS: Did you like being constantly mindraped by asari throughout the game?
AWWWWYEEEEEEHHHHH but the consort was scary


Mass Effect 2[/size]
1. Shepard dies, gets resurrected, and is now working for Cerberus! What was your reaction?
HODAMN.

2. Horizon: Your reaction to the Virmire survivor's unwillingness to listen to Shepard about the whole Cerberus situation?
Kaidan: Who are you why are you so mad at me (siiince I had just started the series and all)
Ashley: Oh well I understand why she's so pissed at me... I DON'T EVEN GET TO EXPLAIN TO HER WHY I'M WITH CERBERUS. I understood her mistrust of Shepard because it really suited her character. She sticks up for what she believes in (definitely that the Alliance is da bomb and Cerberus sucks), and won't give in just because she's friends with someone.

3. Collector Ship: The Illusive Man set Shepard up. What did you think?
> I KNEW SOMETHING WAS OFF ABOUT THE MISSION. THAT DBAG

4. Derelict Reaper: Holy crap a friendly geth!? How did that go over?
Since I had no idea about how in the first game geth were the main enemy... I thought it was cool that there was a talking robot on my ship. xD

5. Collector Base: Did everyone live? Who got assigned to do what? Did anyone die?
On my first few ME2 runthroughs, a few people died. Tali/Legion always ended up dead because they took a rocket to the face after traveling through the vents. Oh, and the crew ended up dead (Kellygoo... yum).

On the MShep everyone lived. I had Tali doing vents, Garrus leading the squads, Jack with the bubble, and Mordin escorting the crew back to the ship.

6. Who was your favorite squadmate? Your least favorite?
Favorite: MORDIN. OMGOMGOMG. First I was intrigued that he was a geneticist (because I plan on getting a degree in genetics woo), then found his genophage work to be real interesting (I had just finished a book on the Manhattan Project for a paper I had to write... I found the similarities in the projects/the guilt felt afterwards to be cool and was able to sympathize with him), and then his loyalty mission? D8 Learning about his crisis of faith, how much the genophage really haunted him, how much he tried to defend it... so depressing. Then he sang Gilbert and Sullivan. He's so cool.

Least: Jacob. What is going on here

7. Love Interest: Did you stay loyal to your ME1 LI if you had one? Or did you choose one of the 3 new romances?
MShep stayed loyal to Ashley (though I will admit it made me sad when Jack and Tali ended up interested in him and I had to tell them no D:)

FSheps all went with da Thane. Awyeah.

8. What was your favorite loyalty mission? Your least favorite?
Favorite: Mordin's... just because of how much depth it added to his character. And the confrontation with Maelon, the decision whether or not to save the genophage data. No I'm not obsessed with him D:

But I did like Samara's because of how unique it was xD.

Least Favorite: Jacob's. Again, I had so much trouble following what was going on there and then Jacob was being Jacob and yeah. Why do I have to bring Jacob anywhere?

9. Khalisah Bint Sinan al-Jilani: Answer her questions or punch a bish?
I think the first time I punched her.

The MShep pwned her with his charming wit again, though.

10. Conrad Verner: Still friends or did you shoot him in the foot?
Still friends. I made him think he was a super hero who helped me bust a batarian slave ring... which probably instigated a lot more problems. XD! Oh well.

BONUS: What is your favorite store on the Citadel?
Marab's shop omg that salarian who is like your biggest fan ever too cute.

Mass Effect 3[/size]
1. James Vega (aka DudeBro), Javik, and Diana Allers: What did you think about them? Did you get the From Ashes DLC to get a Prothean or did you not want to pay 10 bucks for an extra squadmate? How about having Allers on your ship and getting a new squaddie (Vega)?
Dudebro gonna dudebro. Meh, didn't care about him all that much. Diana Allers = wtf get off my ship you hoe. As for Javik, I liked him. All hail the lord of 50,000 year old trolling! I didn't buy him myself (I didn't think he was worth the extra 10 bucks)... I leeched him off of my brother. That's what family is for!

2. Virmire Survivor: They get beat up pretty bad. What was your reaction?
D: ASH NOOOOOOO DON'T DIE WE HAVEN'T SOLVED ALL THE PROBLEMS BETWEEN US AWSHFAS.

and

o.o Well then... Kaidan's going to complain about having headaches a lot more, I think.

3. Tuchanka: Did you cure the genophage, or did you sabotage it? How did you like the introduction of Eve and the perspective of the female krogan? What was your opinion of the mission overall?
FemShep run: Since I started out with Wreav (D:<), and I destroyed the data so Eve, I was able to convince Mordin that curing the genophage was a bad idea. \o/

MShep run: Wrex was alive and I saved the data. The krogan's future looked good and I let Mordin go up the tower... I've shed maybe a tear or two because of a videogame/movie. But Mordin's death... I did not cry a river like a baby. It was so perfect for him, so beautiful, yet at the same time I just lost mah favorite squaddie forever. D=

Oh, and I loved Eve. She was the coolest krogan ever (sorry Wrex) with an awesome backstory, her 'lets kick ass and show the men how it is done' attitude, and I knew she'd make a great leader for her people. :'D. And I loved the mission. It was so well-written and the conclusion... So tragic yet so happy at the same time. I loved loved loved it.

4. Citadel: Here you get introduced to Kai Leng: what did you think about him? Did the salarian councilor get saved by anyone? What about the VS pulling a gun on Shepard to defend Udina - what did you think about that?
I played the Citadel part first on my Femshep, who had romanced Thane, so... that sucked (and the prayer afterwards made me cry my second river. damn it). I hated Kai Leng because he seemed so out of place and even a terminally ill Thane could have totally kicked his anime-boy butt. As for getting the gun pulled on Shep... I convinced Kaidan out of it, but didn't really care if I had to shoot him to get to Udina.

As for Ash, ogod I hate how many terrible situations Bioware puts the VS romance in. At least you could convince them out of this one. xD

5. Rannoch: Did you broker peace between the geth and the quarians? Or did you have to blow one of them up? What did you think about getting to talk to a Reaper, as well as being able to visit and reclaim the quarian homeworld?
For the FShep... um, Tali/Legion always ended up dead so I kinda killed all the geth. >_>'' MShep got peace between them, yay! Talking to a Reaper was kind of meh... not as cool as the Sovereign confrontation. He just kept going on about how stupid you are and how whatever is going on cannot be comprehended by your simple mind. WHATEVS BRO. As for visiting the quarian homeworld... I spent the week before hiking in the mountains in mah state Arizona, so I was laughing at how much Rannoch looked like dem mountains (add that on top of the joke that I'm like a quarian because my immune system sucks so bad, it was just too funny). Except there was more water of course.

6. Thessia: How was learning more about asari beginnings? What did you think about the asari keeping that Prothean beacon a secret? What was your opinion on Kai Leng's appearance in the temple... and how did you react to Shepard's defeat and the following cutscene where you watch Thessia pretty much get destroyed?
I brought Javik along and it was wonderful! He kept trolling Liara which was so funny... >_> <_<. As for the asari keeping the Prothean beacon a secret.. FFF, COUNCILOR Y U NO STICK UP FOR ME. As for Kai Leng, I was just like 'NOOO NOT ANOTHER ONE OF THESE'. Especially when Kai Leng defeated me after I drained his shields in like 3 seconds (on insanity, mind you). I beat him up so hard and he ended up winning anyways? DAFU. The following cutscene, though... the Reapers raining down, the asari lieutenant asking for backup and Shepard's being unable to respond... D:

7. Cerberus Base: Did you like learning more about EDI's past as well as the Lazarus Project? How about the encounter with the Illusive Man and Kai Leng?
Learning about EDI's past and the Lazarus Project was pretty interesting. I laughed real hard when the Illusive Man was all "SHEPARD. YOU'RE IN MY CHAIR" and I may or may not have used that line later when I went to sit down at the table for dinner and found out that my cat was chilling in my seat. As for Kai Leng? RENEGADE INTERRUPT. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. >

8. Assault on Earth: How was saying goodbye to all of your squadmates? Wasn't it fun getting assaulted by thousands of banshees and brutes?
The first part I was sure I was gonna get a seizure.

The goodbyes were all touching, and I loved them alllll.

I hated all the banshees and brutes everywhere, that sucked so bad. Having to run constantly to avoid getting impaled or hulk smashed.

9. Beam-Hopping onto the Citadel: What did you think about that? How did the encounter with the Illusive Man and Anderson go for you?
I was... confused, but I was okay with going along with it. As for Illusive Man and Anderson conversation... I shot TIM. That bishnozzle trying to make me shoot my bro Anderson. Felt better to do it myself than convince him to go out like Saren.

10. Starchild & your favorite color: What did you think about the introduction of the Catalyst? Did you like the endings or not? What was your opinion on the sudden plot twist at the end of the game?
When the Catalyst got introduced, something just didn't feel right. It didn't feel Mass Effect-y at all. As for the endings, no I did not like them (wtf space magic), nor the fact that the Reapers ended up becoming the good guys/victims 5 MINUTES BEFORE THE GAME ENDED. Really? Three games full of Reapers trying to slaughter us, take away our humanity, turn us into genetic goo, and now you're telling me they're the victims here? Eff dat.

11. Red, green, or blue: Which ending did you choose, and which is your personal favorite? Destroy, synthesis, control, or the secret refusal ending?
Red! FOR AMURCA. I felt bad about killing EDI and the geth, but I'm sure we could rebuild them somehow... besides, Shep has been fighting to destroy Reapers for three games! Why back out now? (oh and Shep can live so that's always a plus!)

Control didn't feel right (especially with Shep's added speech in the EC... he's going to be the next harbinger in 50,000 years! D: So not hero-y at all). Synthesis felt the worst. It just made me think about Mordin's talk about how the collectors weren't "human" anymore... everything was replaced by tech, there were no limitations, so their culture stagnated. Good job on committing cultural genocide on 10 races and eliminating the theme of 'unity in spite of diversity' we had going on there for a while, Shep.

Refusal ending could have been cooler if EMS had an effect on it. But alas, since we are forced to accept space magic as an answer, it just felt like a big ol' 'FU accept my artist integrity now'.

12. Extended Cut DLC: Did it change your opinion on the endings or not? What did you thinkabout it?
Eh, a little. The added speeches at the end added a nice touch, the slides were good, the updated flashbacks, too... I just really hate space magic. I was also expecting more of a Dragon Age: Origins-esque ending where you get the slides along with a bit of text to explain the outcome of all of your decisions throughout the game, but I guess that was a bit much to ask for.

13. Favorite squadmate? Least favorite?
Favorite: Ash. Since everyone else in my list either wasn't a squadmate or ended up dying. FFFHHuh.

Least Favorite: EDI. Didn't bring her along except for the Cerberus mission where I had to. Also, camel toe lol.

14. Love Interest: Did you get to witness a catfight (if it could be called such) or did you stay loyal to your LI? Maybe you tried one of the new LIs? What did you think about your Shep's romance... and what was your personal favorite romance?
FemShep: Thane died. Let's just say that game didn't go further than geth/quarian conflict and I didn't romance anyone else. D: lol

MaleShep: Stayed loyal to Ash. Was worth every moment. From the way he carried her into the ship, to the talks in the hospital, the date scene, the final romance scene, and the last goodbye... I loved it all.

Personally I think Tali/Garrus romances were done the best, since they put so much effort into it. But I loved all the stuff I got with Ashley, so she's still mah fave.

15. Meeting old squaddies: Did you like their cameo appearances in some of the side missions? Did you think some were poorly handled, or did Bioware do a good job with all of them?
I liked most of the cameo appearances, since it suited their characters in general. (Loved Jack, Samara, and Grunt the best. Jack with her kids :'D Samara and her daughters reuniting :'D and mah baby krogan growing up :'D). I think they were poorly handled if you romanced any of them... or when it came to Morinth. But otherwise I was content with what I got.

16. Khalisah & Conrad: Did you punch her again or get her as a war asset? What happened with Conrad?
Talking to her finally paid off... got her as a war asset! xD
Conrad lived, phew (Poor guy working with Cerberus because he wanted to be like Shep)! I would have been so depressed if my biggest fan died trying to save me. Though I was very much surprised to find out Conrad had a doctorate in xenolinguistics or whatever it was xD... he has a profession that isn't stalking Shep everywhere? lol

BONUS: Do you think Shepard would make an excellent pedobear? Stalking unsuspecting children through an ominous forest... On a more serious note, how about the Indoctrination Theory, did it seem more valid than Bioware's ending in your opinion? What were your thoughts on the fan-crafted theory?
GO GO PEDOBEAR.

I really shipped the Indoctrination Theory... it made the ending seem much more coherent with the Mass Effect universe, and it made a lot of sense! I don't even usually believe in conspiracy theories but I really liked this one. Bioware could have totally redeemed the series for me if the IT was true, but eh. Marauder Shields will forever be my headcanon.
