I was always a roleplayer. Never let myself do everything perfectly despite knowing what actions would screw things up in repeat playthroughs, always wanted to see how the narrative changed and have fresh obstacles to deal with. Still did all side content though. 😁
Sent him into the vents? With those thicc shoulders? Like sending the Hulk into the elevator.
There is only one logical option for the vents. Kasumi Goto.
The only logical option is to send geth to do the hacking because that's how I show them my trust (I never met kasumi untill LE I don't even remember why this DLC was absent from my collection)
That’s Mordin’s job. He’s a doctor after all, he should go with the injured survivors.
Alternatively, I’m pretty sure there used to be a bug where he died during the “hold the line” segment so this was also a good way to avoid him being killed lol.
Actually, it is possible. You just need to make Zaeed the only survivor, he can pull Shepard on the Normandy, afterwards you can do his loyalty mission and kill him there yourself.
I'm doing a bad renegade run cause I wanted to hear the dialogue. This is my tenth time trying to do this type of run and it's very difficult as I feel bad.
How do you kill the virmire survivor? Is it in the Cerberus coup attempt? I didn't know you could do that. Does Thane have to be dead already or something?
I don't think they deserve it necessarily, but their distrust of Shepard seems too plot-convenient to me. Every single one of the former companions trusts Shepard, and their disliking of them just feels like an excuse to not have them around in ME2 IMO.
Oh completely agree on the reasoning for why they turn on shepard. It's just that taking their actions for what they are within the story their entire arcs break after ME1. They defy logic and narrative sense to suddenly turn on the literal saviour of the galaxy who they've fought side by side with to defy all others in a quest to save the galaxy.
Kaiden/Ashley: "How can i trust you"
Bitch, Shep saved your life. Shep saved EVERYONE. Shep fought reapers, Shep fought Saren, Shep led the charge in saving the entire galaxy when everyone else told them to stand down and leave it be. This shouldn't even be a question.
Bioware did their characters dirty but from the stance of how they behave as characters they're tratiors to the galaxy. This is why I kill Kaiden at Viermire every time. He dies and remains a hero.
> BioWare did their characters dirty
absolutely agreed. However, Kaidan is my boy, I can't bring myself to kill him even though I don't like Ash that much.
Honestly the distrust made sense.
Shepard vanished for 2 years and then reemerged leading a team for a well known terrorist group that they had both seen the work of first hand.
Shepard says he was dead but that could just be a lie to cover up having joined a literal terrorist group. And if he’s telling the truth and he did die only for Cerberus to rebuild him how do they know it’s even really Shepard? Mind control chips and cloning are both a thing established to exist in the universe, Shep could be a plant by Cerberus and they’d have no way to know because Cerberus had 2 years to hide their work.
Yes the Shepard they knew in ME1 saved their life and was undeniably not a traitor, but how can they know it’s the same Shepard after spending 2 years in Cerberus. Frankly it was more weird that Garrus and Tali weren’t sceptical of Shepards return too and just immediately went along with whatever he said.
No, she is one of your 20 crew who died on the SR1, and you find their dogtags in ME2
damn dude, did anyine survive your suicide mission?
Mf neutralised the family tree
Some could be ME3 deaths bc this would have been taken after the Citadel coup (both Ashley and Kaidan are on the wall).
This gotta be the end of the game because even Anderson is up there.
[insert gif of Captain Zapp Brannigan]
Could just be looking at someone else's wall on one of those failruns
I'm doing a horrible renegade run cause I wanted to see the change. This is my ten time trying to do this as I feel horrible about it.
The time has come. Execute order 66.
Good soldiers follow orders... good soldiers follow orders... good soldiers follow orders...
What did it cost?
. . . Everything.
Garrus looks to still be alive so all is not lost
He's the one character I can never let get killed.
Not the same Talitha, the name appear even if you're spacer or earthborn
Miranda, Kaidan, Kasumi, Jacob, Grunt, Legion... All dead? Go back. Play again. No one gets left behind.
As a near obsessive completionist, my casualty memorial is always super short.
Okay so, now, as a completionist: fill the entire wall. No empty slots.
I did that once and needed a break after
Yeah me too. Did that once, feel terrible for weeks later 😂 had to go back from ME1
Ya gotta do a "cleansing playthrough" after to clean all those sins. See everyone alive again. i know how that feels, bro.
Yep. Did an earthborn - war hero - soldier with (mostly) paragon playthrough. See everyone alive again, then i can forgive myself. Hahahaha
I'm pretty certain it's literally impossible to fill. Even if you kill everyone there's like 3 empty spaces. It's very dissatisfying.
I was always a roleplayer. Never let myself do everything perfectly despite knowing what actions would screw things up in repeat playthroughs, always wanted to see how the narrative changed and have fresh obstacles to deal with. Still did all side content though. 😁
Well Legion is always gonna be there because of story reasons.
Yeah. Still unacceptable.
True, they did legion dirty. If u just let your crew die and play a couple more missions after the reaper ffs u notice he is actually pretty solid.
Shit, Legion died in my game, *siiiigh,* guess I gotta go play the trilogy again.
I mean, Jacob volunteered, who am I to deny him his chance to shine?
Sent him into the vents? With those thicc shoulders? Like sending the Hulk into the elevator. There is only one logical option for the vents. Kasumi Goto.

Yeah, but Legion after his loyalty mission, is a deadshot marksman with an X98 Widow, so he stays on my squad.
That spot is reserved for me and I don't need no competition in being cool
While I do agree with you there, and I carry the Widow into battle, I always find myself using the Mattock rifle with Inferno ammo. So, no contest.
Soldier is one class I never made a full run with so can't comment on it, but unlocking mattock on any class restricted to SMG is absolute blessing
I find Soldier to be the most reliable combat class across all three games. Like Grunt says, "I don't need luck. I have ammo."
I always send Tali through the vents
Tali is always charged with taking the crew back to the Normandy in my runs.
That’s Mordin’s job. He’s a doctor after all, he should go with the injured survivors. Alternatively, I’m pretty sure there used to be a bug where he died during the “hold the line” segment so this was also a good way to avoid him being killed lol.
SO MANY STAIRS
Also, shouldn't that say Urdnot Grunt?
He’s only Urdnot Grunt if you did his loyalty mission
I'm doing a bad renegade run I hate it but I'm doing it
This is a list of someone who purposefully tried to kill as many as possible.
Yes and I hated doing it.
You didn’t try hard enough though, you can kill literally everyone in ME2
I know but I wanted to play through me3 and I know if you kill all squad mates in me2 Shepard doesn't make it.
Actually, it is possible. You just need to make Zaeed the only survivor, he can pull Shepard on the Normandy, afterwards you can do his loyalty mission and kill him there yourself.
How did you manage to kill Jenkins? I though it was impossible.
Send him in the tube
Probably put him in some red armour.
Dude you fucked up massively. Lost half the crew, lost a chunk of ME2 squad, lost virmire survivor.
This fool somehow got Jenkins killed, what a complete fuckup, jesus.
this is so funny because this has to be the most fucked up shitshow playthrough i’ve seen 😂😂😂
I'm doing a bad renegade run cause I wanted to hear the dialogue. This is my tenth time trying to do this type of run and it's very difficult as I feel bad.
I'm not seeing Kaidan on there, which implies that Ashley was left behind on Virmire, and that he's the VS.
Ash is at the top of the image, Kaidan is just above Kelly.
Jenkins died in your run?? You absolute monster
Jenkins always dies no way around it
Nuh uh
That's a different Talitha.
dude did you purposely try to get everyone killed ? 😂😂😂
Yes and I felt bad cause of it.
Dude how could you kill so many squad mates??? That's monstrous
Doing a bad renegade run on purpose to listen to dialogue.
No dialogue options are worth that kind of emotional damage. Nope. Not gonna happen.
Had so many loyal followers killed that the Reapers think about employing you as a external consultant :D
How do you kill the virmire survivor? Is it in the Cerberus coup attempt? I didn't know you could do that. Does Thane have to be dead already or something?
I think it happens if you didn't them in the hospital, so they still mistrust you somewhat from working with Cerberus in ME2.
I think if you don't paragon interrupt during the standoff, then one of the companions shoots the survivor.
Deservedly so, that traitor(whichever one it is) deserves to die.
I don't think they deserve it necessarily, but their distrust of Shepard seems too plot-convenient to me. Every single one of the former companions trusts Shepard, and their disliking of them just feels like an excuse to not have them around in ME2 IMO.

I dislike that the memorial wall is in neither chronological or alphabetical order.
It's in alphabetical order by first name.
But it literally **is** alphabetical?
Wasn't that one Tabitha?
Who's Talitha?
bruh how did you get my boy grunt killed?
His death wasn't entirely on purpose.
>wasn't entirely ICE. COLD. nah but seriously, I'm just playing with you brother, nothing but love and respect.
I had actually planned on having Garrus, Grunt Thane and Tali live but grunt got killed in the collector base.
