When I was playing the game on a personal level taking it seriously for every decesion, I was more 50/50 Paragon, and Renegade. Even though it's a video game but I look back on my life with the decisions I made now where I am now- I'm deployed overseas. Learned little more of who I am really putting me ethical and moral decisions. I stand up against the status quo, and do what is right that justifies the means even if there is greater consequences of the outcome. From sacirficing to relationships. What you'll do in real life based on reflections of the decisions you made in the game. Did it ever have a reflection and question your character in real life?
How did playing Shepard affect you in your personal life?

Well, life doesn't always work as we imagine. In the first game I made moral choices based on the outcome I predicted. If it wasn't a life or death emergency, I sometimes chose renegade option (as a way of giving NPC a fishing rod instead of fish). For example, I preferred teaching some NPCs the hard way not to be naive and clueless instead of helping them instantly. But then I realised this is not how this universe works (as I was getting more and more renegade points). Moreover, the text of certain dialogue wheel options hardly matched real actions they triggered. That's when I went the easier way and began to choose "upper option" almost every time.
But as for influence on my real life, I'm not sure if there was any... Except that I began to ACCEPT MORE REAL-LIFE QUESTS

Life always has a renegade interrupt, but the question is if you are badass enough to use it.
Personally, I like to play games the way I would do things in real life, which leads to 2/3 paragon and 1/3 renegade. I believe in utilitarianism, so I use whatever means necessary to do what is best for the greatest number of people.

I now shoot vent rats in the head on the off chance they might be genocidal AIs.

It helped clarify what I was looking for in life, namely what kind of girl was my type (For me, Tali is the perfect woman). But more significantly and importantly, he inspired me to be more open towards other, with the reasoning that I can't go in and talk and care about everybody ingame, and then clam up and not talk to people when it is in real life they got problems. This was not on it's own, rather in conjuction with other events, but it still left a significant impact on me, besides just being a story with characters I grew to care for over the course of all those years.
And like the OP, it forced you to mirror yourself and put you into situations where you had to make tough calls. I almost always ended up paragon, trying to find the solution where everyone came out of it alive, not believing in no-win scenarios, and understanding those around me instead of going "waa waa, man up!". But it also showed how sometimes I could hesitate too much due to ideals, and that when it comes down to it, I often chose with the heart over the head. Funny to see how my developement in life ended up affected my choises in the third and how I reason about them (only just finished it today, for various reasons). Before I would chose what was "the right thing." but in situations without a "right thing" I got stuck, however during ME3 i came to realize that in those cases, the breaks ends up being if there is one who is innocent and one who isn't, just like I would chose civillians over soldiers.
