So do the decisions you made in ME1 and 2 actually really affect ME3?
I mean the council for example, if you saved it in ME1 it's still there, but if you've killed them, they are just replaced by other identic guys, it doesn't really affect the story, they only thing that really affect the story were the died/survived crew members from ME2, but they were also just replaced.
Bioware really screwed with this one

I also missed consequence of these small decisions, like did you let Anolleis kill Gianna Parasini in Me1 and did you help her in Me2?

Yes, they affect allot.

Until the last 10 minutes.

[Karrie788]

What GoblinSapper said. They affect the road.

The destination remains the same.

[lasertank]

They affect the roads to the same destination

i would like to hear destroy/save Collector Base, since there's not much info on the net

[Adugan]

They dont really affect much except minor dialogue and the war assets page. You might gain some extra military power, or the Rachni might slaughter an engineering team if you didnt save them on Noveria. If you saved the Council, you get more fleet support but lose 33% the 3 main Alliance fleets. Cant think of much else except some cameos.

Didn't Bioware stated somewhere that there would be nearly infinit endings, depens on the decisions you made in Me1 and 2?
Sure...

[paynesgrey]

Your decisions only affect who dies before everything goes Choose Your Own Adventure style ending, except all of the endings are pretty much the same and suck.

[KingNothing125]

They don't affect squat. There are three and a half endings. Control, Synthesis, Destroy, and Destroy+Shep Lives.

All ME1 and ME2 do is affect how many side quests and how much multiplayer you have to do to affect your forces score.

"What about Rannoch and the Krogan and blah blah." Again, 3 and a half endings. You don't get to see what happens to anyone except Shep and a handful of dudes on the SR2. No epilogue whatsoever.

That's about it.

Just wanted to say though I think you meant Epilogue, and not Prologue hehe. But yeah, the "decisions" you made during ME1 and ME2 do make their way (well some of them) in ME3 to affect some characters and missions. But it does not affect the endings what - so - ever, period.

[KingNothing125]

Err, yes, epilogue.

[Craven1138]

Decisions do not affect finale of series. All you get are three very similar endings.

And that sucks, given that premise of series was that your choices and performance matters (as shown in ME2).

Sure...

A direct quote from a dev in a video interview:

"They can dig deeper. They can find out what their choices did."

Yeahhhhhh, sure.

Well, technically those choices did impact the game.in that they gave you something to do before choosing to turn to page 37, or choosing to turn to page 37, or choosing to turn to page 37.

Be fair, it wasn't a choice of turning to page 37, it was a choice of which shade of acrylic sheet you wanted to put on top of page 37.

Did you save the original council? Yes/No
Who was the Virmire Survivor? Ashley/Kaidan
Who was clan leader of Clan Urdnot? Wrex/Wreav
What did you do with Maelon's Genophage cure data? Keep it/Destroy it
Did Mordin survive the Suicide Mission? Yes/No
What did you do with Legion? Sold to Cerberus/Didn't Activate/Activated
-If activated, did you do it's Loyalty Mission? Yes/No
-If Yes, what did you do with the Heretic Geth? Rewrote/Destroyed
-If activated, did Legion survive the Suicide Mission? Yes/No
Did you recruit Tali? Yes/No
-If yes, did you do her loyalty mission? Yes/No
-If did loyalty mission, was she cleared of charges or exiled? Cleared/Exiled
-If did recruit, did Tali survive the Suicide Mission? Yes/No
If recruited Tali and Legion and did both loyalty missions did you settle the argument? Yes/No
Did you cure the Genophage? Yes/No

I could go on with lots of other 'choices', but my main point is this... take all of the above, look at all of the variables... now imagine seeing how they all play out?

Fair number of choices made in the previous games did come to completion in ME3, whether they effected the ending or not is irrelevant although to some degree some of them did as they affected your Effective Military Strength rating with whatever War Assets they gave/removed. Thus deciding the fate of the 2 squaddies you take with you, the fate of Earth and the possible choices you could pick from for the final decision.

Edit: I've got 16 Shepards going into ME3, not one of them made the same choices and I've covered as many variables as I can within those 16, there could easily be a whole lot more. The thing is, even with the limited number of 'endings' technically there is more than what we get because of how we can choose the fate of different races/characters

[I have to go]

They affect everything except the ending.

[Wattoes]

Most of the situations that initially appear are more less the same, even if they go against previous decisions.

However the resolutions and how things play out are very much your own, and they do have an impact. Its incredibly satisfying to see all your choices finally coming together and getting a big result at the end.

... Until the last 10 minutes which will honestly make you never want to play a mass effect again.

[Fidget6]

As others have said the game as a whole IS quite a bit different based on your choices. But then the ending comes and none of that really matters anyway. =[

[cipherknight]

Its amazing how all you choices decisions and every single action you do from me1 +me2 is all focused into one organic epic story that feels totally unique until it gets horribly railroaded sidelined crushed into the worst possible ending that has no closure makes no sense and gives you the biggest middle finger that says "thanks for the money you chump and btw all of your choices don't matter at all".
