Just playing the demo made me already want to import my Shepards.

The cynic in me detects that BW has somehow screwed up the import mechanic...

Yeah...no.

I tried one no import game in ME2. Fail. Don't want to go through that again.

I don't know, the crazy guy makes some sense to me. I might even do it this way.

The first time I played ME2 was a non-import playthrough as I didn't own ME1 till I completed ME2 and decided I had to buy it. It was kinda fun seeing the differences in my second playthrough.

Calling bullsh*t on my earlier response. Way too attached to my canon two Shepards to not experience the end of their adventure first.

Interesting idea but I'll have to agree with most the people on here I don't know if I can put down that "little boy on xmas morning" feeling I have in my gut about importing my ME 1/2 Shepard and seeing how this ends.Either way it is going to be truly epic.

Chris, I completely understand the motivation behind seeing what could be different if I started with a new Shepard, and your suggestion certainly has merit. However, I'm far too eager to see how it all ends for my Shepard.

Oh, and Chris? I hope you realize how incredibly brave/crazy it was to even make the suggestion here on the BSN...

Like you I believe, for story, I'm worried with some of the feedback from the leaks. Past characters will all play some role in the war, I just hope they made the characters justice. They said they have so I'll wait before jumping into conclusions. Would you prefer him explaining you the bigger stuff like the genophage cure, Rachni Queen, Cerberus base, etc, instead? I prefer to have some faith in them than swallow BSN madness like the final word on anything.


I'm basing my concerns on ME2, and the fact that leading up to that the devs all went on about your choices mattering if you imported, and then we got emails, weak substitutions, and trivialising or sweeping things that should have mattered under the rug. I see no real reason why ME3 won't suffer the same issues. Devs have said our choices matter, but they did that leading into ME2 as I said.

So far everything I've actually seen and read besides these claims has been evidence to the contrary: e.g. Sur'kesh is the same mission and same circumstances whether Mordin and Wrex are alive or dead, the VS role being massively downplayed and pushed back due to circumstances fairly early into the game, what Chris just said now about Grunt basically just being swapped for another krogan, etc. It all points to subtle flavour changes rather than anything of any real substance.


You had to have expected some of that.

And the VS can be undownplayed if you do certain things. They had no excuse for the VS because that character would be there regardless.

You make a good case, Mr Priestly. I don't want to play my canon Shep first time anyway.

I feel something amiss here. When I import my ME2 save to ME3 the people I killed better STAY dead and not pull a Dragon Age 2 (Leliana, Anders)on me.

If there's any way to avoid the wierd eyelid clipping issue, I'm definitely importing my Shepard.

I will eventually do a fresh ME3 game, but I have to go through my own Sheps first. I just have to. :-)

While I understand your point of view, Chris, I don't really think my first blind playthrough will be with a meaningless character. That will be for future games. Nah, instead, I've got to import my male shepard.

No, just ****ing hell NO. This is the end of my Shepard's tale, the end game for him that I've been waiting for three years since I first played Mass Effect 1, I'll be damned if I'll play a random Shep that I don't give a crap about in my first blind playthrough.

Hey guys, Im sorry if this has been answered but, at what point does ME2 import into ME3? does it take it all from like the end of the Suicide mission? or the end of Arrival? or just the last current save point that you have on that playthrough?

I had to play an importless game for ME2 and I was a very sad panda about it. When i was finally able to import the game was SO DIFFERENT i loved it. However, i'm not going to do that this time around. I need my Kaidan romance arc to close with epic sex.

i might do this.. except in reverse order. Play with my import first (to avoid spoilers for my import shep) then play with default decision to see the differences. I mean i might as well i'll be playin this game for the next 9-18 months anyways :P

Mr. Priestly, that's not a bad idea.

I think I may try it. Despite the fact that I feel I should take my first Shepard through first (did with ME1 and ME2).
