Can you PM me the UPSC fanfic chapters, please?
My computer's lack of Word is starting to annoy me.

I tend to think the renegade ending for Ronald Taylor is somehow the more humane option, the easy option. Not only can you say you didn't kill him, you gave him the easiest end to what he knew was a bad situation. One shot, the juvenile fantasy is over and any fear of harsh punishment is over. The neutral response is much worse because you never quite know what's going to happen, how long it's going to take, and when death will finally come.
That said, I usually take the paragon option. For justice. And paragonness. And stuff like that.


Most Paragon options are too cliche for me (my opinion), in every movie the classic good guy (Cpt. Picard is a good example) will take him to jail, I'm bored with the classic good guys.
"You should always do the smart thing, not the good thing"-Laura Roslin (BSG)

The only time I choose a Paragon option is with people I like and few other moments.

Finished chapter two and
three. They were really good. Keep up the good work.

I'm glad you liked it.:D
PS: I've noticed that our DA characters have something incommon (and it's not the Origin).

Welcome ashlover mark 2! It's always good see people who don't hate Jacob, that poor guy gets too much hate.
I'm glad Jacob survived your suicide mission, I have only have one casualty in one of my playtroughs. Tali got a rocket to her face, because she wasn't loyal (my renegade score was to low and I've picked Legion's side).

Just out of curiosity, was there any specific planning on who wouldn't survive your suicide mission, or did you just run in blind and choose to accept whatever outcome the mission gave you?

I know a lot of people have done the former, but I have respect for someone who will stick with the decisions of the latter.

Thanks:D Have you noticed that your character was mantioned in the 1st chapter btw? Your character will be included when I add some ineraction between the Marines. Chapter 4 will take a while to finish, I only have some time to write at thursday, but it will be better then the previous chapters.

@gashgfjaskgfkagh,sure no prob i belive in inter support thread "Support" meaning supporting other support threads and the sqaudmates they support (PHEW i used the word SUPPORT alot there)

ash is my fav sqaudmate,but i like too think her and jacob have crossed paths on eden prime before.



@pacifien not really,at first everyone survied but that got boring after awhile,then i did a playthrough were only jack died.on this playthrough i chose spesfic ppl that i knew would fail or die in certain jobs,so yea i guess you can say i planned it out.but again ONLY for dramatic purposes i want the story too actualy feel DARK and GRITTY.

Man, I always keep forgetting that Jacob was supposed to have been on Eden Prime. Now I'm annoyed Ash and him don't have a moment on Horizon.

I support (:P) your theory about Ash and Jacob meeting on Eden Prime, but I hope he din't used his pickup lines on Ashley,  I wonder if he got them from his father?

I needed a character like that, i don't think Jacob and Harris will have an friendly relationship.:P btw The 4th chapter will feauture some ineraction with the Geth Ambassador, I wonder who that could be:P

It'll be propably the same as the regular meeting between Ash and Shep, but without the hug. Jacob is also a part of the EVIL Cerberus that works with The Reapers and the Collectors!

We will never know the truth, maybe Jacob was watching 110 years old porn and he thought that it might be cool to say it. I hope Bioware will do something about his romance and let maleShep actually spill some drinks on the Citadel with him

Hey dudes, I took the liberty of posting on that "Can't find your favorite character" sticky to see about getting this thread upgraded to the official over there, since the previous "official" only hit 10 pages and died like a month ago.



Jacob is my boy and I support him for being a sweet normal dude.

Thanks for doing that, I forgot about it that the "can't find your favorite character" still considers us as a joke thread. I also saw the previous "official" thread, it doesn't look like a proper fan thread.

At least Jacob is starting to get attention.

I hope that altleast that the "can't find you favorite character" thread OP gets it that we aren't a joke thread anymore.

I know a lot of people have done the former, but I have respect for someone who will stick with the decisions of the latter.


In my playthrough, I choose to go with Jacob's advice and get the IFF imediatly, went on the suicide run with only five loyal members, Jacob, Tali, Samara, Mordin, and Legion. My casualties were Garrus, Jack, and half the Cerberus crew. Garrus died because he wouldn't give me the cannon upgrade due to me not going on his loyalty mission, died on during the collector ship battle (cinematic was a lot cooler looking without the cannon). Don't quite know how Jack died. Kelley, Rupert, Gabby, and half the unamed crew died because I did Legion's mission before I went on the suicide mission, I had a chance to wipe out the heritic Geth, had to take it.

Since this was my Personal playthrough, I'm sticking with it, going back and changing decisions I made with future knowlege would be cheating.

Here are some questions for you all.



1. What did you do with Jacob's father and why?

2. What did you most like about Jacob's loyalty mission?

3. Would you ever consider romancing Jacob on a femShep?

4. How would you improve Jacob's romance? That includes what femShep says and how she says it.

5. Is Jacob your Shepard's bro?

6. Do you bring Jacob along a lot?

7. What do you think about Jacob's battle quotes?

8. Do you expect to see Jacob as a squad mate in ME3?

9. Do you agree with what Jacob said about Thane?

10. Have you ever played Galaxy? What did you think about it? If you're never played it, are you interested now that you've played ME2?

11. Which is better looking: Jacob's galaxy appearance

Posted Image

or Jacob's ME2 appearance?

12. If you could alter Jacob's skillset, how would you?

13. Why do you think Jacob and Miranda didn't work out?

14. How did you first get into ME1 (assuming you played ME1)?

15. Is your Shepard paragon or renegade? Or perhaps Paragade, Neutral, or Renegon?

16. Is there anything you especially agree or disagree with Jacob in terms of his views?

"You've got a nasty streak in you, huh?"

Greetings from the Tali thread. I know our respective characters aren't on the best of terms but I want to lend my support to this thread. Jacob has grown on me, he's like my second bro after Garrus and has some pretty funny lines.

Keep it up guys

Yeah no worries.  I'm mostly content to be a silent stalker on these boards, but the sheer amount of anti-Jacob-ism prompted me to speak up.

Holy cow Collider! Hahaha, ok well here we go.

All answers given are my Paragade Personal Shepard, unless written otherwise.



1. Gave him the gun, the man was messed up, prison was too good for him, but being left for the savages is pretty messed up too, as I said before, if I got to kill somebody, I get it over quickly.

2. My favorite part about Jacob's loyalty mission has to be just how realistically evil Jacob's dad turned out, very dark and creepy, I loved it!

3. One of my three characters is a Paragon Femshep, who has already romanced Jacob.

4. Let Femshep get a glimpse of what is under all that armor Jacob is wearing, have Jacob open up a little more.

5. Hell yeah Jacob is my Shepard's Bro!

6. Almost all the time, my team was Jacob and Tali (Beat insanity with this team).

7. Love the battle quotes, some of the best in my opinion.

8. Jacob better be in ME 3, or me and Bioware will have a problem.

9. Yeah, I understand where Jacob is coming from in not trusting Thane.

10. I have not played ME Galaxies, sadly.

11. Mass Effect 2 is the preferred appearance for me, I dig the facial hair.

12. I wouldn't alter Jacob's skill set, I'd patch the game so he wouldn't activate Barrier on his own, and I'd replace his pistol with an Assault Rifle, but his skills are great in my opinion.

13. I think Miranda was more in love with the Lazarus Project and Shepard than with Jacob.

14. I love Bioware games, bought ME 1 opening day, have been a member of the bioware forums since then as well.

15. My Personal Shepard is Paragade.

16. Jacob and Personal see eye to eye on pretty much everything, Jacob is Paragon Shepard lite, as is my Personal shepard since he is Paragade. I think that's why Jacob and Personal Shep get along so well. The only difference with the two is their views on Cerberus, Jacob views Cerberus as evil yet a necessary evil, while Personal Shep hates Cerberus guts (sole survivor).



Great questions Collider, I look forward to reading everyone's answers including yours.
