2) Calling out the Asari hostage taker as being a stripper (instead of intimidating her... which is what the paragon option is)

Its more fun to wound the hostage.

John Shepard: "Your forgetting something (forget name).... I WAS a  Spectre to!"
[Shots hostage]
Fun Times!


I agree. It's far more badass.

Are people actually pro-shooting an innocent civilian? How odd.

Admittedly, playing a renegade is fun. My favorite Shepard is a renegade.  I love watching her blaze through the game, without a thought or consideration for some of her actions (while others, are carefully calculated, but that is another topic).

However, as much fun playing a renegade can be, some choices available seem very out of place, or too cold, and incredibly awkward.

My top five are:

1) Executing Shiala
2) Punching the reporter
3)Sleeping with Morinth
4) leaving Zaeed behind on his loyalty mission
5) electrocuting the Batarian on Garrus' recruitment mission


What are your top five?


I get what you are saying. Some of the choices are very harsh but I don't think they are out of place, they're just another option for people. Some of the renegade choices are down right stupid but a blast to play especially when you get hilarious dialogue like the "big stupid jellyfish" line. But I too have a hard time making what I consider blatantly evil choices.

My top five:

1) Leaving David with Archer. I can't do it, I will never make that choice and I swear if Shepard could shoot Dr Gavin Archer in the head she would every... single... time

2) Killing Talitha. (Will never do it)

3) Betraying Samara ( I've made this choice so I understand why an opportunistic Shepard would do it, but it still makes me sick when I do)

4) Not using the stun grenades to spare the colonists on Feros

Edit...

5) Leaving the people to burn alive on Zaeed's loyalty mission (Thanks to Badpie for reminder of this... I knew I was forgetting one)

I've never been okay with killing Talitha or Shiala.

Completely forgot that Talitha is killable. Edited my previous post.

When he says " I was a spectre too" that's basically letting her know he has the balls to do whatever takes to get the job done too.:devil:


Well surely there are other ways for that. Still doesn't sound very convining.

But personal role playing purposes has never hurt anyone.

I'd kill people for fun if I could get away with it.

I always do a personal role play when I play RPGs as it adds more to the story.

I don't find the "Electrocuting the Batarian" out of place, he is still repairing the gunship, and doing so you prevent it to be 100% functional (I remeber it having less health)

It's faster to shoot the hostage than it is to talk Tela down and has the added bonus of possibly ending the stand-off right then and there.

I do it when I lack persuation. Quite honestly, my power cells > her life. Not that she even dies or anything, so...

Anyways, I think ratting out Mouse to Kelham takes the cake. It's absolutely pointless thing to do.

Yes, we are.  The intention to shoot through the civilian to get to your target is a mainstay in the decision.  She doesn't die, it would truly be renegade to kill the civilian, you're just wounding her to save her.  The paragon option is to release your ammunition, and anyone would be stupid to comply with that feature.  I'd stake my job on it because someone would demand I relinquish my ammunition to comply with a hostage taker.  One who would easily kill the hostage, or take you and whoever you're with as potential hostages.  Spectres are willing to do whatever it takes to win.  Even the Xenos ME 1 council condones it.

Personally I'm actually irritated that I have halfway into the final bars for both Renegade and Paragon, and I never get the options to use them.  Same with Morinth requiring a pure Renegade run.  I am truly glad I managed to get her once.

There are ones that I find not necessarily out of place but just to the extreme. To me renegade shep is a d*ck but he's not evil. There are actions that just seem so over the top villainous to me. And Shepard is not a villain.

(in no particular order)
1. Executing anyone really: Shiala, the electrocuted Batarian, the merc shoved out the window, Talitha, Rana Thanoptis, Wrex.
2. Physically assualting defenseless individuals: Manuel, Al-Jihlani, Conrad Verner.
3. Leaving the people to burn alive in the factory on Zaeed's mission.
4. Giving Veetor to Cerberus.
5. Killing the colonists on Feros if he doesn't even TRY with the gas grenades.

I guess that sort of covers it for me for "things I find wholly unbelievable" for a protagonist to do.

On a lesser note I find giving the fish to the Krogan and taking all his long saved money downright mean. That and sending the Biotic God Volus to his death for amusement.  (Ha!  My renegade Shep: Don't even blink when killing rachni queen, feel punched in the gut with guilt when I lie to the Krogan about the fish).

This is one of those renegade ones that bothers me greatly.

Up there with the geth rewritting being paragon.

Destroying the Heretic Geth station was against everything that renegade shep had stood for throughout the mission. I consider rewriting the geth a renegade decision.

Innocence is a waste of Shepard's time. 

As for out of place choices, eh, a number of the minor ones are kind of pointlessly cruel or rude.

Ohhh oh I forgot about leaving David Archer with Cerberus hooked up to all those machines. Holy geez I can't believe I forgot that. That was awful. Not even my most renegade Shepard was able to do that.

Yes, but that was to prevent war with the geth.

What?! I play mostly paragon and I find those abseloutly hilarious to do.

That and getting the urdnot scout killed.

Is that really a renegade action as much as it is just inaction?

5. Not liking the AI on your ship.

How is this Renegade? I genuinely hate EDI.
