Still my favorite cutscene of (pre-SM and Miranda romance stuff) ME2. The look on the salarian's face is priceless.

Plus NECKSNAP.

Didn't notice the salarian in that scene, but I guess you're talking of this look:

Oh, and while I'm looking at my picture collection....

That "OH F---" look is a huge reason why I love Miri's loyalty mission.  It was around then that I started to genuinely like her during my very first ME2 playthrough.

Gosh I love Miranda. She was my canon Shepard's permanent squadmate in ME2.
Warp and Overload, could you be anymore sufficient? Nope.

[Ieldra]

LOL, it seems everyone loves that "Oh crap" moment. I do, too. It's why I almost always use the Renegade interrupt. As a general rule, I dislike the tendency of things to explode after Shepard was there, but in this case the crashing tank works perfectly.

@Nyxia:
Yeah. I wish we had that in ME3 as well. Imagine the biotic explosions Miranda and an Adept Shepard could create!

Hmm, replaying ME again, they didn't give you as many opportunities for "badass moments" as they do in the sequel. But I still enjoy the feel of each game on its own. Haven't made up my mind about 3 yet.

In related news this playthrough is actually my most complete to date (finally got all those pesky collection side missions done). As a result I'm thinking of building a new "Director's Cut" canon from it. Quick question about Gibbed- I romanced Liara this time around but my canon is Ashley. I can re-import the save and modify the romance flags after, right?

And don't worry, canon for the rest of the series is still Miranda.

ME2 has the best Renegade interrupts in my opinion. The only one comparable in ME3 is killing Leng (but that one's damn good).

I don't think so. Changed ME1 plot flags only become active when you set the "game finished" flag and start a new ME2 game from the changed savegame file. At least that's how it worked for me. The plot flags may behave differently though, so I can't say for sure.

Basically, I suspect that the ME1 plot flags are copied into ME2 plot flags at the time of import.

BTW, my canon romance for ME1 was Ashley, but I changed it (by replaying ME1) once I realized how much less annoying Kaidan is. Now I have no canon ME1 romance, and it's none/Miranda/Miranda for Cyrus Shepard.

Re-import may have been the wrong word.

Basically I'll want to import this save and as soon as the related ME2 save is created go in and change the romance flags.

At some point I would import (again) and just play normally for the Liara romance, obviously.

Edit: Kaidan always dies for me. I find him uninteresting and even if I don't romance Ashley, she always lives. Kaidan's no more part of ME for me than Jenkins is.

Different opinions, I guess.

Yeah, and I'm saying that likely won't work. You need to change the flag, set the game to finished and start yet another new ME2 game from this changed ME2 save. I only tried to fiddle with ME1 plot flags once, but when I did that was what I had to do.

The view that Miranda’s somehow involved in this organization—but not really, just the nice parts, and she doesn’t really even know about anything else—and that it has no bearing on her character…that is simplistic.

This is merely a strawman, at least as far as any recent conversation on the topic is concerned.

No one has made this argument. You are arguing against a simplistic idea that no one has asserted.

Interpretations differ, but *everyone* agrees that it is important to Miranda's character, and generally that it should be more important than it ever was in ME3.

@flemm: I’ll drop it here, but it’s funny that you argue against something being simplistic, since I’m
specifically trying to argue against a simplistic view of Cerberus as a ‘gray’ organization. Yes, simplistic. Just  because it’s ‘gray’ doesn’t make it complex, it just removes the need to reconcile the various aspects. Just say ‘gray’ and all is well. It’s ‘gray’ and therefore one thing can be one way while another is the  complete
opposite. That’s simplification, not complexity. It’s label that avoids actually thinking about the complexity.

At no point in this discussion have I presented the view you are describing here. What I have said is that the portrayal of the organisation has evolved over time, from a fringe extremist group, to a rogue black ops organisation, to something more like a Star Wars-esque antagonist.

Nothing in there about Cerberus being "morally gray" as a sort of permanent part of its identity.

You are never going to be able to show that that view is invalid or innaccurate because it is probably the most succinct way of describing what actually happened.

No fast food please. No organic crap either.

I'll make you a Hungry Man TV dinner, if you'd like.

I love Hungry Man dinners.  

Beer batted chicken and buffalo chicken anyone?

I'll stick to MRE's.

Damn chemical heaters always make the stuff taste like chemicals.

And god help you if you eat the jalapeno cheese spread.

I don't recommend the milkshakes either. In fact, they all suck. #13 is the only good main course.

Don't ever eat the gum or use the TP they give you. It plugs you up to the point you need a plunger to take a ****.

Three lies for the price of one: They're not Meals, They're not Ready, and you can't Eat them.

Or a Massive Rectal Explosion. That's what they are.

One advantage of serving in Her Majesty's forces, whether British or Australian, we get massively better ratpacks than you yanks. Don't have to go through sensitivity training, either.

[Steelcan]

I've had MRE's before, they weren't that bad, well the milkshakes were but the food was fine

Ieldra is using the term I've been furthering?

No one can escape Super MAC. NO ONE.

Watching DVD's makes me hate compression artifacts.
