Yeah. It's just that I remembered how angry I was when Chignon was insulted -- but pleased that so many friends came to her support. Funnily enough, I don't remember hearing her opinion on the matter.

Great shot, BTW. Still the stunner I fell in love with.

Hate on BSN is the worst. xP I tend to steer clear of arguments if I can help it. And thanks! Always glad to know that someone enjoys looking at her as much as I enjoy posting her.

Moar Olivia please.

What about the Normandog? Sad FENRIS Mech is sad.

^I was irritated that I couldn't go all renegade on Zaeed and tell him there was one head **** in charge and he was to fall in line or ship out. Wasn't about to kill factory workers to make him happy when he showed a lack of respect to Shepard to begin with by going all Rambo like that.

You can shove a gun in his face and tell him off with Paragon responses... I think. It's been so long since I played through that scene. xP

@ELE08 -- Thanks! Just one of those "got freaking lucky at the right time" moments. I couldn't recreate that if I tried.

Lucky or not, it was an awesome shot. Neural Shock involved, right ?

 That's what the Doctor says about the TARDIS if I remember correctly. Awesomeness. *ahem* Anyhow, something with FemShep and guns.

A question for people: are all your playthroughs "serious" playthroughs with thought to RP and reasoning behind actions, or does anyone do fun "throwaway" playthroughs?

The reason it comes to mind, is I started a chaotic-moron renegade who ALWAYS chooses the bottom option and it's hilarious. I put her in bubblegum pink camo.

I haven't done full throw-away play-throughs, but I'll often do throw-away moments (hit a save and then choose options I normally wouldn't choose just so see what the outcomes are like with my main Shepard, Artemis). Sometimes, I get surprised and find that the option I don't normally choose ends up producing a result that better fits Artemis (prime example: the red renegade choice when talking to Grunt after you first let him out of his tank, "My enemies threaten galaxies"... why is that renegade??).

I might think of trying a throw-away play-through, but I don't know if I'll be able to do it or finish it. I have a very hard time playing Mass Effect with a character I don't care about or relate to. Heck, I have a hard enough time playing a different femShep that I do relate to or care about (e.g. my Athene is basically Artemis with blue eyes, biotic abilities, and less messy hair).

This probably makes my game experience a bit more narrow, but oh well. No worries there, considering the hundreds of hours I put into the games anyway.

Yeah... Artemis only wishes she could glow blue.

http://cloud.steampo...5345747A201EE8/
Pfffft... Athene only wishes she could actually get a headshot to save her life.

:innocent:

I demand pictures of this Renegade Shepard in the bubblegum pink camo. You cannot tell us about her and then not post, ELE. That's just cruel.

I should have some screens soon.  I'm away from home atm...i miss me computer .  Just you wait, the exploits of jerk-ass pink-camo Shepard are coming to a FemShep Fan Thread near you soon.

Most of my FemSheps have been based on a fictional character and/or playing a different class so I can tell them apart. 

Which is kind of bad since I keep running into fictional characters I want to recreate in the CC and run through ME1 and then 2... assuming I stop doing that and actually get my current group of Sheps into ME2.



The only "throwaway" runs I've made were mainly for CC tweaks. Play through Lazarus station and maybe Freedom's Progress and see how he or she looks.

(only 17 hours late)

Almost obsessively serious. That said, I started with a manShep and I played him for three run throughs of ME before he even made it to ME2. So like Grunt, he was built on the deaths of his predecessors. This would technically make all the prior playthroughs 'thowaways'. He turned out to be Jack's John, who I'm currently busy with a fourth playthrough of ME2. The last one was perfect, but it was with an infiltrator version of him, while I want him to be soldier for ME3. This time I can almost speed run him through as I know which choices he'll make.

Yes, yes, this is not a manShep thread. Allow me to get 'on topic' then. Those runs with John has had a side effect. It has allowed me to play a single playthrough of ME with Jane, which went straight to ME2. Hers is taking a bit longer (as I tandem the missions) because some of the conversation/choice terrain is a little unfamiliar. Prime example was the last conversation of Jack's LM. I reloaded that sucker nine times before I was happy enough that it was IC for Jane.


Zaeed: Big WET goddam heroes we are...
Jack: This was a mistake, Shepard...
Jane: Sh*t, now you both sound like p*ssies! +5 Renegade

LM = last mission, right? (Not familiar with some of the lingo!) I know what you mean. I was surprised by all the outcomes with Jack and even scratched my head over the fact that if you ignored both renegade and paragon options, she will do exactly the opposite of what Shepard orders her to do. It seemed inconsistent for her characterization.

yay!

to answer your question, what Jamie said. no time for throw-aways. right now i'm hooked on RPing my way through 4 DA2 characters i've come up with, but i just got too attached to kyrie to ever do a throw away playthrough or come up with a character that isn't her. i just try to refine her.

i did realize, however, that kyrie always does what *i* think is morally right in a situation. she does it for her own reasons, but i pretty much always agree with her.

Not really. I think she puts it best if you use the default conversation option which lets Shepard command her not to shoot, then she shoots the guy and if Shepard berates her for it she says she will follow orders in future but had to end the 'Teltin experience' on her own terms.

Of course, you can use the pragaon/renegade options, or paragon/renegade interrupt during the default or bottom right conversation options. That's why it took me so long to choose the IC (in character) dialogue path for Jane.

Pretty much this for me.  Alice is sorta-kinda an extension of myself, morally speaking.  I've got her 'story' down pretty well, but even on my 4th playthrough of the game I'm still finding subtle ways to make the game 'hers'.

I think the first time I ever really made a decision that I didn't necessarily agree with was in DA2, and it was because I RP'd my FemHawke as listening to Merrill even when it went counter to her gut instinct.

That is an interesting situation.  I must confess that since I only had one Shepard for so long, that I only saw the paragon side of that scene.  The first time I did a renegade, I had Erica 1 order Jack to shoot the guy (w/ renegade command).  It felt off, but I swung w/ it anyway.  With the second Erica, she ordered Jack NOT to shoot the guy, but Jack shot anyway.  That felt "right."  A last gasp of revolt from Jack and Erica 2 was not going to order anyone to kill an unarmed man w/out a damn good reason.  That and, "Yes ma'am, Commander ma'am"  kind of made that my favorite way to play that scene.

I agree about Jack shooting the guy, despite Shepard saying to back off, felt right. I liked the insubordination and Shepard telling her to follow her orders from then on. It was good conflict and my other favorite Jack moment is breaking up the fight with her and Miranda since keeping people in line is the headache part of being in command.

[Tup3x]

I always choose the paragon line and interrupt in that situation.

[Gilsa]

True story: I was *thiiiiiiis* close to making Jack the fire team leader out of spite because they started up their cat fight when Jack didn't want Miranda to lead and I was all, "NOT THIS **** AGAIN." I decided to let Garrus handle it and I stuck Miranda on his team and took Jack with me instead. I didn't lose anyone on my first game and was confused, wondering what the big deal was about the ending. I read spoilers and then it dawned on me how bad it could have been if I actually put Jack in charge out of irritation. Phew. =p
