[QUOTE=JeanLuc761;35255872]Hey, if it works for you then more power to you.
I think ~100% complete for all three games for me is about:
ME1: 25 hours
ME2: 35 hours
ME3: 35+ hours[/QUOTE]
Jesus, I don't think I could ever finish ME1 or ME2 that quickly. It would feel like a damned speed run, I just wouldn't have enough time to be fully immersed. But to each his own. Mass Effect 3 is totally different though, I got everything, from the main story to fetch quests, done in 30 hours. It felt empty.
Oh, and by 100% complete you mean strictly main story and vital side missions right? Not [i]actually[/i] 100% complete?

I mean every possible quest, strip-mining every single planet (ended my most recent ME2 playthrough with 200k minerals for everything, except Eezo), also every single DLC. The only quests I ever skip are the Mass Effect 1 fetch quests (minerals, asari writings, etc). Those are just way too time consuming for the little value they have.

100%, which is possible in 2 days by the way. This does not include getting to level 60, because that's just retarded to play through 3 times to reach one goal.

That's impossible, 100% mass effect 1 is AT least 60-70 hours, and three days is 72 hours. :v:[/QUOTE]

Replaying ME1; Neutral options, how I missed you ;_;
[QUOTE=noneshallpass;35256100]Replaying ME1; Neutral options, how I missed you ;_;[/QUOTE]
Yeah, that still bugs me a bit about ME3. It wasn't nearly as bad as the prologue implied, but there's still a substantial amount of auto-dialogue.

Personally I don't mind it so much, Shepard has always had a personality underneath your choices. There was an illusion that everything Shepard did was what you demanded when it wasn't actually true. It also in my opinion helps a lot with immersion. Shepard can actually hold a conversation now without having to think thirty seconds before speaking.

I don't see how the auto-dialogue was that bad, it was nowhere near as extensive as Dragon Age 2 and kept you from just saying inane banter anyway.

I actually don't mind it too much, barring a few scenes where Shepard says something that I would never have expected. Relatively though, Mass Effect 1 and 2 had much more extensive dialogue wheels. How often do you see "Investigate" in Mass Effect 3 compared to the prior offerings? Also, neutral dialogue choices have pretty much taken a hike.
Overall though, this choice smooths the conversations out a lot, and it lets Shepard have much more of a personality. The discussions after Thessia...man, some of the best stuff I've seen there. That's the closest I've seen Shepard come to totally losing it.

Conversation wheel with Joker after Thessia:
Paragon: Pissed off
Renegade: Even more pissed off.

yeah. I banged the reporter at the end just for the hell of it though.

I liked how the Paragon option had Joker throw it back at you. Never thought I'd see Joker putting Shepard in his/her place.

I honestly felt a lot more immersed when I chose almost all of Shepard's dialogue. I feel that it puts the player into the role more effectively.
It no longer feels like I'm the one having the conversations. Instead, it's like I'm just dragging Shepard from place to place, waiting for him to get done talking to people, then moving on.

I think the "Escape from Earth" portion of ME3 is most guilty of this; Shepard says almost everything without any player input. Those sequences frustrated me. Not because I was sitting there watching, but more due to "Wait...would my Shepard actually say that?"
For example: After you first talk the council, Udina calls them a bunch of self-concerned jackasses. What threw me off is that, no matter what, Shepard responds with "How can they be so blind?" I don't know about you folks, but my Shepard would NEVER say that. Aggravated though he might be, he understands that the other races have to protect their own as well.

Well remember, they don't need to get physical. Just mind meld.
if someone could get her dialogue files for me i would die a very happy man

Yeah, also when Shepard says "You BIG STUPID JELLYFISH", which is just a dumb reference to a renegade option from ME1. Autodialogue is fine when he/she says neutral things that anyone would have said.
