No.



If the Alliance of the Council tried to bring my Shepard in for interrogation, the end result would be my Shepard and his team standing on a giant pile of very dead soldiers. Besides, Hackett's got Shepard's back.

If that's what it takes.

I'm not sure an interrogation would work for renegade style players as they would either not talk or immediately kill the guys.



It'd be a cool scene but the player wouldn't get a recap on previous events

Only as a paragon introduction though IMO.



As a renegade, I've got a ship full of the galaxy's deadliest badasses.



Come get some.

A trail or interrogation would be an awesome lead in for ME3! I've wanted to see Shepard placed into a gritty situation and it would allow the perfect time to go over previous decisions on both games. It would also allow Bioware to keep its promise of "stand-alone" for the final piece of the trilogy.

I think you might have missed something I said in the OP, Night. This could also work for the ever-important new comers, but it would have to be presented differently (i.e. not the same as it would for an imported save).


No, no, I read it! I swear! Scout's honor!

*tries to do the scout's honor hand signal, fails*

Anyway, I feel this is still iffy. You're still starting the game by giving an enormous amount of focus to the two previous games. I can't really see a scenario where new players wouldn't be totally blown away by everything they realize they've missed out on.

But hey, I really think BioWare should throw this whole concern for new players thing out the window now. It's the last installment for crying out loud. I can understand new players starting from game two, but game three? We should be focusing on closure at this point and really bringing home the events of the first two games, not trying to accomodate new gamers at the expense of the old ones. Doesn't everyone think it's time we started treating this like a trilogy?


I couldn't agree more. No more catering to newcomers. It's the last game for crying out loud. ME 3 must focus on completing the story of the last two games. No more of this "we want to draw in more new players" crap. They had their chance with ME 1 and 2.  Image IPB

An interogation scene/ trial would be great for the story. BioWare, I hope you are listening. Image IPB

Something like this could work, I guess, even be exciting. But what I picture is 15 minutes of talk-talk-talk.



They won't do that.

Why would my Paragon Shepard get interrogated or even put on Trial? He saved the Council and was reinstated as a Spectre. Not to mention that he proved his true loyalties to the Galactic Community by giving TIM the finger and blowing up that 'IT'S A TRAP' Base.

@Elite Midget, you still joined forces with Cerberus





An interrogation would be a neat idea, though it could also be a psych eval (I'm sure the Turian Council member would like that).

I think this would be a really good intro. As stated it could be a way for new players to have there choices. Also would give import characters a great review of past decisions. It would work whether it was The Council or The Alliance giving said interrogation.

Hell it doesn't even have to be an interrogation, it could be a Debriefing(if you accepted being a spectre again). Like you are invited by either party to explain where you have been for two years.

If you are a renegade or didn't accept spectre status, it could be a trick that turns in to a trial.

Turian councilor: So what did you do two years, Shepard?
Shepard: I was dead all this time but few months ago I was resurrected by Cerberus to stop Collectors. And I killed them all and stoped construction of human reaper from colonists.
Turian Councilor: Such a hero! Know what? We just built giant battle fleet specialy for you can stop reapers. Fleet awaits your orders. Anything else?
Shepard: Also I saw hand varens on Tuchanka, they are so cute! ^_^
...

Come on! Good guys always suffer more, didn't you know? If paragons don't ready to suffer for their actions they are hypocrites.

The beautiful thing about this is how you wouldn't be just "reading" your history off of a review screen, but actually hearing it all in-game, interactively. I really can't think of a better way for ME3 to start off, to be honest.

When I read the thread title, I instantly thought of Thane's interrogation in is loyalty mission and Shepard just WAILING on that dude locked on the chair.



I think that would work nicely. Same setting, Shepard beating the living crap out of the suspect, and the suspect being the Turian Councellor.



This should go on for 5 minutes and each punch should be an interactive string of buttons like a special boss-kill in God of War. Preferably something like this video:

^ I think you misunderstood. The idea here is about Shepard being interrogated, not doing an interrogation. Re-read the OP. :)

Your Shepard is also crazy, has been giving technology and aid to Cerberus, recuits a lot of dangerous criminals, and broke his/her promise not to do anything in Citadel space (including, obviously, on the Citadel itself).

Since there are no Reapers, and you have no proof of them, blowing up the Collector Base was hardly evidence of your continued galactic loyalty.

I like the idea but first for if shepard died me3 you cant import im sure me2 actual says "import me2 saves to me3 if you survive" anyway i heard many people want a kaiden/ashley dlc for me2 which is great but i just cant see bioware using them in me3 because of events in ME1 and ME2. But the interrogation could work dispite your choose at end of ME2 because the council may still hate you maybe for stirring up reaper warning on a galactic scale. i've also thought maybe have shepard older a grizzled veteran as reapers may attack within decades after ME2 and has given up fighting but gets draw back in by the characters like liara who will most likely be in ME3 after what happened in the shadow broker DLC.

Oh, here's a kickass idea: It starts out as an interrogation, and the tutorial at the start of the game would be a flashback during the interrogation that sets up the rest of the plot.

The only problem I find with this whole idea is that Shep gets captured..... By what fleet? But I do see him "turning himself/herself in." Think about it, the seen with him/her just in basic fatigues no weapon no armor in the middle of the most populated and popular part of the Citadel, surrounded by as many C-sec officers as they can cram into that arm without over balancing the whole station. And all that Shepard would has to say (with a wiry smile on his/her mug) is "I hear you've been looking for me."



I put turn him/herself in as quotations because lets be honest, Shepard is not just "A" bad ass in the Mass effect universe Shepard is "THE" bad ass of the Mass Effect universe. We've all played the charter as such (i'm guessing) Paragon or Renegade. No one or even group of people could hope to fair well against him/her if Shep was feeling....uncooperative.

All I'm saying (and I hope the writers see this) is that this is the last installment of this epic, it's time for the main charter to be a catalysis to the plot from the beginning. Set the pace from Shepard's play book not Cerberus or the Citadel. "You can fall in line or get knocked aside but don't get in my way!" paraphrasing from memory (shrugs) hope I got it right.

Remember people that Anderson retire from the council (if he was chosen in the first place), some time after ME2 to help Kahlee and goes after the "altered" Paul Grayson (collector base technology?). If there is a time lapse between the second and the third game this could indicate that Shepard will loose support and protection from the council and the alliance which makes a trial more likely. The other likely scenario is the capture and following torture by the Batarians which have a rather big thorn in the side for humanity and it's greatest hero...

I support anything that doesn't just kick in without a proper intro. This looks like one of the options, yet still too much variables at once. Perhaps he should get caught early (not the very first scene) instead and it shouldn't touch any matters related to the new game, but just what happened in ME1/2. Kinda like what-you-answer-means-what-happened, as it's equally tedious to replay everything to everyone. Heaviest decisions should be the persuasion options, though.

An interrogation scene would be awesome. My Shep is a renegade soldier and has been brutalizing people from one end of the galaxy to another for two games now, so to see her bloodied, beaten, cuffed to a chair and being worked over by some Alliance officer even more sadistic than she is would be a great role reversal.



Plus it obviously serves the narrative point of laying out "the story so far" for those just jumping into the series.



We just assume that Shepard and friends are the deadliest people in the galaxy, but I'd like to think the Alliance has some black ops/special forces teams we haven't met yet that could hunt her down and bring her in if necessary.

This would also allow for 3 to start covering Shepard the human rather then Shep the Hero as we've seen in 1 -2.

Would be nice having two beginings:

  • If Shepard is a spectre, it's a debriefing.
  • If Shepard isn't a spectre, it's an interrogation.

What if Shepard took his Spectre satus back but also still sides with Cerberus?
