I think this is more of a general question, but has anyone played a Ruthless Shepard as a paragon? I kind of have some ideas for my character's RP, but how does it work in the game?

Unrelated, I made a new Shepard (not an import) and I am debating whether or not to go for teh priiiiize or Thane with her.

She seems interested, lmfao.

My Shepards keep on having the same features... I have a look I like, I guess xD

@TZ  - I hope they write Kaidan and Ash as separate characters for ME3.

The part that just got me was where Shep says how Kaidan knows her and that she would only be working with Cerberus if there wasn't another option. Kaidan's response just didn't appear in character. After all they went through together, you would think he would trust the women he loved to at lease consider that what she was doing was the right thing.

His response just struck me as shallow.


He's just supposed to trust her because she tells him to? You have to consider that Shepard is the one who turns up out of nowhere after two years of being believed to be dead without ever contacting him even though she had a chance to and she turns up with Cerberus on top of that. Cerberus who conducted more than questionable experiments and operations in ME1 if you recall.

But I agree with you on one point; namely that his response was somewhat out of character. My take on this is that if Kaidan would have listened to what Shepard had to say, he would have understood what she was trying to do. He is a very sensible person after all. If he had listened there would have been no reason to be mad at him, though - not one that I can think of now anyway - and thus no shove towards the "more compelling" LIs of ME2.

I have a Shepard with the 'Ruthless' background and I play mostly Paragon.  The only thing this background affects is the amount of Renegade points you start out with (and some dialog).  So, right off the bat, you will have some Renegade points, but you can go on racking up the Paragon points from there.

A lot of Shepard's dialogue was poopy.  Some dialogue was knocked out of the ball park, but other parts were like cat sh*t on a hot summer day.

This.  It seemed very inconsistent, quality wise.  

I could also do without all the "I got better".  I get it.  Way to hand wave a major plot point away.

That was really the point that I was hoping to make in that like you said, he was always the more "sensible" personality and even though he may not have agreed with Shep joining up with Cerberus, he would have been more likely to at least give her the benefit of the doubt.  If anything, his response wouldn't have been angry at She personally.

Maybe this is because I played me2 first, but I liked working with Cerberus more than working with the Alliance. The council held you back and didn't beleive you even when you had evidence to suggest that they should, TIM comes right out and says "the reapers are back, we need to stop them" no BS involved, just calculated risks and challenged for shep. Just like Shepard said in me1 I beleive "the council can kiss my ass!" I do wish the vs survivr could have been persusded to join you though cuz that'd be amazing.

I don’t know that his response was out of character. Kaiden always struck me as sensible for the most part but also very naive, idealistic and of course loyal to the Alliance. Working with Cerberus would be against everything he stands for and believes in. I don’t think he would approve even if he did let you explain. It’s also not the only time he gets pissed off and talks in that tone to shep. If you take him with you to face Saren and then opt to let the council die for whatever reason he very definitely disapproves (unless you renegade him)

It's during a conversation with Liara in ME, one of the options is to ask her that question, thankfully it's optonal, but still.....:mellow:

It's true TIM gets the job done, problem for me is: I don't trust him.  He's using Shepard, and only has your back so long as you're doing what he wants.  That much power is dangerous concentrated in just one person.

Not to mention their rather questionable ethics (which as a sole survivor Shep, are unforgiveable.)

Because, you know, Asari definitely weren't able to breed until they met other species... And to think Shepard graduated from N7 and is the best humanity had to offer...:pinched:

And @ELE, That was REALLY nearsighted on BW's part to completely ignore that Cerberus was behind such a traumatic event in Shepard's past.  Or at least some Shepards...

If they had made up a new organization to whisk Shepard away into, instead of Cerberus, I would have felt more like this, but I can't excuse the people who tortured Toombs and killed Kahoku, or what happened on Pragia, much less the many other things they did offscreen and in the books. 

I can understand someone like Miranda choosing to make excuses for Cerberus, because they did so much for her, and saved her and her sister, but Shepard doesn't have this past with TIM.  The Systems Alliance and Citadel Council may be incompetent, but they don't use children for horrible experiments, or attempt to bomb the Migrant Fleet, or inject people with Reaper tech just to see what will happen.

Or at least, I hope not...I think the "Cerberus is still a part of the Alliance" theory has legs.

The dialogue with Wrex about the genophage had me facepalming so hard I think my hand temporarily melded to my head. Shepard has some moments where her foot is so far into her mouth she can kick her own kidneys.

There is many ways Bioware could have had Shepard working with Cerberus, they picked the quick, cheap and messy route. They should have took there time but they did it quick.

Yeah, when Shepard was like "It's totally the same~~" I wanted to reach through and smack her. Good thing Wrex was more levelheaded when speaking to her >.>
