[QUOTE=Lankist;35505183](funny enough, none of the "let them go" Paragon options EVER came back to bite you in the ass. Apparently EVERYONE in the galaxy is sincere and trustworthy when being held at gunpoint, I guess.)[/QUOTE] That one chick on Virmire, the Asari secretary or whoever, I'm 99% sure I heard something about her going apeshit and killing people on a newscast, but that's the only one I've seen. But it could've been talking about someone else, hard to tell.
so apparently your only objective as a krogan soldier is to beat the living piss out of enemies with your fortified fists of fury i'm okay with this
[QUOTE=Sardonus;35505908]Fuck you, Ashley, that last panel made me smile. I've left your ass crispy on virmire in every playtrough DO NOT MAKE ME REGRET IT[/QUOTE] why the fuck is there no "I died and there is no god, now feed my fish or stop bothering me about your faith crisis problems"
exactly, I just want to see her face if you flat out say, "There's no god and I fucked Jack in your room while you were in the hospital."
maybe ~3 hours until resurgence is released? should i stay up for it should i
Well, I just beat the game. And holy shit I'm pissed. They left too many questions unanswered. It feels like they left room for a sequel.
[QUOTE=NoobSauce;35506223]Well, I just beat the game. And holy shit I'm pissed. They left too many questions unanswered. It feels like they left room for a sequel.[/QUOTE] Nah, it's like that for all the endings. They are barely different. I guess we'll just have to wait for extended cut. Welcome to the club.
[QUOTE=NoobSauce;35506223]Well, I just beat the game. And holy shit I'm pissed. They left too many questions unanswered. It feels like they left room for a sequel.[/QUOTE] Except this is the end of the main series, apparently. The rest of the games after this are going to be focusing on someone new, and it's been implied that the next game will take place a long time after this one.
Do you guys think maybe Kaiden just blazes all the time and the reason he never trusts you is he's just paranoid from all the hash? I mean he asks the same questions like a hundred times in a row.
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rl9QucnZz2A[/media] I uploaded the cutscene that happens after you get to Tuchanka to youtube. Unfortunately the video is fairly quiet, you may need to turn up the volume. This was one of my favorite cutscenes.

Does the Multiplayer DLC come out tomorrow? If so, my credits are prepared.

I guess we'll find out when I finish Part 3 whenever the fuck![/QUOTE] You should print out a copy complete with a hard cover and send it to bioware when this is done.
[QUOTE=EXoDUSFLT;35506520]Does the Multiplayer DLC come out tomorrow? If so, my credits are prepared.[/QUOTE] Estimated at about 2 hours from now, but it will probably be slightly later.
[QUOTE=Lankist;35505061]Yeah, Renegade pretty much went from "At-all-costs, Captain Malcolm Reynolds" kind of decisions to "fucking psychotic asshole who should not be allowed to hold a firearm" decisions. Like, ME1 and ME2 Renegade Shep would only kill fuckers if he [I]had[/I] to. He wouldn't just kill someone just because he felt like it. He'd fucking punch a dude out or something, but he was still very loyal to his friends and had a sense of honor and compassion. ME3 Shepard just kills his friends for fun.[/QUOTE] Yeah pretty much. except maybe the part where you can kill Samara in favor of a creepy bitch with a death fetish.
[QUOTE=Melkor;35506656]Yeah pretty much. except maybe the part where you can kill Samara in favor of a creepy bitch with a death fetish.[/QUOTE] artistic integrity, man artistic integrity

So will the DLC be through like Bioware's site or through Origin? Also, will it be released soon or more likely tomorrow? Got about 600,000 credits saved up for this

Does anybody feel like ME1 had the best story writing? I mean it's not just about getting introduced to the universe, there was a lot more sidequests in it. I still remember missions that were possible to pick up on some planets, those actually had some plot behind those. It also felt more rewarding on the RPG-side. You had to plan all your skill investements because you couldnt have a refund. It was also fun upgrading one of your weapon trees to get a death machine in the end. Also what happened to explosive rounds? Those on a shotgun were fun as hell.

[QUOTE=Lankist;35502998]I might do that when I'm not drawing Javik pages. Finished sketching the next five pages, done inking three of them. I'll have five more for tonight and somewhere between 5-6 after that to wrap it up. Future N7 BEDTIME STORY ideas: -Tali'Zorah's Quarian Quandaries -Dr. Mordin's Medical Advice -Joker and Edi's Normandy Prank War -Mr. Shepard Goes to N7 School -Mr. Garrus Goes Solo -Nobody Sits on Aria's Couch [sub](without permission)[/sub][/QUOTE] Mr. Wrex teaches you what and where to headbutt things.
[QUOTE=SystemGS;35506909]i really miss the huge rpg component of me1, it was confusing as fuck to me at first, but once i got used to it i really liked it[/QUOTE] I was kind of mad when i found out that ME2's level cap and ammount of skills were narrowed down to about half. Sure some of the new skills were fun but some of them were useless (like concussive shot, didnt really do anything else than push enemies, had a lot of recharge time too).
The RPG elements in ME1 were great, except for the goddamn fucking inventory and everything related to it. Seriously inventory management uughgghghghg
[QUOTE=Lankist;35505183]But those are all pseudo-justified in the context. Like, Renegade Shep is paranoid and feels like he can't let those folks walk free, otherwise they might put other people at-risk or go apeshit crazy again. (funny enough, none of the "let them go" Paragon options EVER came back to bite you in the ass. Apparently EVERYONE in the galaxy is sincere and trustworthy when being held at gunpoint, I guess.) My point is, take all the times Shep punches a fucker out in ME2. Like the Salarian on Thane's recruitment mission who points a gun at you. He'd be completely justified in blowing a fucker away who's waving a gun around, but homeboy just straight punches him out instead. Is it a rash action? Yes. But he didn't fucking murder a dude. Similarly, in the two instances I remember of letting wounded dudes die, Shepard justified it by going like "they're dead already, no point in wasting time" or shit like that, which is crude but utilitarian. I'm just saying that the ME1 and 2 renegade options walked the line between practicality and villainy, like Han Solo-style Anti-Heroism, and ME3 renegade when straight over the line into the Darth Vader shit. Like, old renegade shit was Chaotic Good while paragon was Lawful Good. But in ME3, it's Lawful Good v. Chaotic Neutral leaning toward Evil.[/QUOTE] Ren shep has always been an ass. In ME he/she commit genocide, pretty much on a whim. Renshep has ALWAYS been a sociopath, kinda just like Udina.

[QUOTE=Grim Joker;35505810]He tried to cut Shepard in on the deal as well, and since he hated humans, that kind of implies he wanted everyone in on it, not just the Turians. If he just wanted the Turians, he wouldn't have told Shepard his motive and tried to persuade him.[/QUOTE] Might wanna go check the dialog again, cause A Shep != humanity in that scene and B [i]Sovereign[/i] didn't agree to jack shit.
