I never tried it so far as I never thought about the possibility, but I really wanna do this too. Only in my next playthrough though, because Legion will not be activated in my current :unsure:

Usually my playthroughs where Legion is activated, I always take him to Tali's trial. My next playthrough will involve taking Legion to Tali's recruitment mission. I hear there is some funny dialogue with Tali and Kal'Reegar.

I wish Legion had been recruit-able much earlier.. and I'd have all his cut content lines on my 360.

 

I remember they even floated around some idea of Shepard being a cyborg or something. What if it had been the Geth that restored Shepard, instead of Cerberus?

 

 

"There was some ideas that maybe Shepard gets his essence transferred into some kind of machine, becoming a cyborg and becoming a bridge between synthetics and organics - which is a theme that does play up in the game," Karpyshyn concluded. "At one point we thought, maybe that's how he survives into Mass Effect 2."

 

 

But then, there we go with the whole "essence" thing again. Probably would've been as dumb as Lazarus and the Terminator Fetus.

I had a lot of fun bringing Legion along on Tali's recruitment.

I think my favorite scene is when Aria is hanging off the ladder... Love the sense of scale for Omega there.

and another glitch, I don't know if its just my game but Shepard pick up a stone and then it disappears.... kinda weird.

It's a common glitch. Have yet to play a single game without it disappearing.

Shepard shot Felere  :( (If Shepard was intent to do this, why did he drag her off to the elevator in the first place???)

Good point. Should've left her with Rila :D

Nyreen is awesome! She makes me very optimistic for ME:Next squadmates :)

"Gravity is one mean mother, huh?" :lol:

 

I honestly had to look this up just now, I don't think I ever heard it, or rather, paid attention to it (then again I mostly play in the evening/night with lowered volume). Or maybe it's just that I never use Jacob in general ^_^

 

And damn, forum is stealing my time when I could be playing ME2 right now :lol:

I much prefer "FLY B*TCH!" Especially when it's an Eclipse Merc.

Dahlia Shepard (Flare infiltrator) resumed her adventure,... although it was almost completely devoid of adventure.

 

She brought Kaidan on board the Normandy, then talked to the crew. Both Traynor and Allers made a pass at her. She turned them both down politely. (She still misses Jacob.)

 

 

Then it was back to the Citadel to chase down Din Korlak, and she bumped into Zaeed, the last of the three squadmates that survived the Suicide Mission with her (Miranda and Grunt were the other two). She met with Kaidan, who was a bit more direct with his romantic intentions. She let him down as gently as possible.

 

Then it was a quick tour of some systems that opened up, then back to the Citadel to deliver some packages. She is beginning to feel less like an Alliance marine and more like a FedEx employee (or UPS or any other delivery service you prefer).

 

 

I thought about calling it quits since it was getting late, but then decided I wanted to see at least some combat tonight, so I had Dahlia deal with the Reaper menace at the Ardat-Yakshi Monastery. Got Gallae's Signature intel so I can get my store discount and can soon begin upgrading weapons an buying some mods at a sweet 10% discount. Oh, and I let Falere stay, because Dahlia is a nice person.

I went to see Mordin and asked about the lab status, crew status and I learned he knew Captain Kirrahe. I told Mordin we worked together on Virmire. I took the opportunity to ask him about the Special Tasks Group and I learned a thing or two.
My talk with Jacob was still a more distanced approach and I only asked about him leaving the Alliance and the mission that lays ahead.
Gabby and Kenneth invited me for poker, but no thanks. You kids have fun though.
I asked Miranda what else she's doing except keeping an eye on me. She and Jacob... I don't know. They are both skilled, but I tend to keep it strictly professional with them. Them being affiliated with Cerberus still doesn't make them trustworthy enough. Although I have to cut them some slack, they follow my orders well enough during missions.
I brought Chakwas the brandy and we drank together, reminiscing. I don't usually drink, but I sure could use the company. We toasted to simply being happily drunk. But it's not like that at all. I'm not happy. This whole situation is absurd. I doubt myself, I doubt how Cerberus could've brought me back to life. I look at my facial scars in a mirror and run my fingers along them.

I wonder if I'm really still me... Am I still human? Am I still really the person I used to be? Or was I just designed to be a tool, someone to accomplish goals no-one else dared to do?

The Alliance threw me away, and I haven't talked to Kaidan. Would it still be the same for us? Is that still love I feel for him or simply sympathy? Did I actually ever really love him or was that just a fling? It feels so long ago. I thought I was certain about him, but maybe I was just looking for someone to comfort me?
I let out a deep breath. Maybe I should let it rest, I will have no answers for any of these questions. I know why I usually don't drink. It only makes me weary and think way too much. It's fine when you have someone to talk to, but Chakwas passed out at some point and I just sit here, bitter and confused. Ugh, better try and get some sleep. The upcoming missions should keep my mind off things.
The next day I looked for Archangel with Mordin and Miranda. We signed up with the mercs, and a boy asked me where he can join. Sure, if that's what you wanna do, that way. (Poor guy :D)
I talked to the 3 merc band bosses about the attack plan. They are all very hostile, but I won't let them get to me. I took the opportunity to override some mechs and to stab a gunship fixing batarian in the back (I know I said no interrupts, but this was such a great thing to do with Hannah and more in-character than the non-interrupt  :lol:).
We took out part of the merc infiltration team, then proceeded to Archangel's location, only to find out it's Garrus. I'm surprised to see him and am somewhat delighted about seeing another familiar face. It's really come to this, huh? Starting to like and trust aliens? But both he and this Mordin guy are alright in my book, honest, doing what needs to be done without hesitating.
We took out the Eclipse mercs, then we split up and Mordin and I went to deal with Blood Packs and to seal some shutters.
Back at Garrus' hideout we had to take down the Blood Pack boss, and after we caught our breath for a moment, Blue Suns came bursting in. We took them and
their gunship down fast.
Garrus took a hit in the process though and he was taken to the Normandy. He'll live, but his face is roughed up.
I talked to Mordin again and he confessed his true part in the genophage. I agree with him though, it was necessary. Krogan are violent and unstable.
Made sure the rest of the crew was okay and then went to see Garrus. We talked about what he was up to and how he got himself holed up on Omega. He told me he lost his entire squad due to someone who he trusted. Sorry to hear it.
Soon I returned to Omega to deliver a datapad to Aria indicating someone wants to get to her. I figured it's better to have her on our side and pull a few favours in case we'd need them.

All in all it went pretty good. Some deaths during the Blood Pack parts, but none during Eclipse and Blue Suns. I always had trouble with Blood Pack :D

If that was an option, would Samara make any attempt to drag Falere back to the elevator like  Shepard does? Or would she leave Falere with Rila?

Hmm, no idea. I imagine she'd stay with her daughters, fight Banshees to the death and detonate the bomb as her last action.

Pretty stupid to fight them when you're detonating a bomb in their faces anyway, no? D:

Why? She's doing it to give time for Shepard and crew to get clear of the blast. Falere could've used the detonator earlier, but waited until everyone was gone.

I don't like how the ending of that quest plays out. Shep is railroaded into rescuing Falere -- and then given the option later to dispense of her. It's kind of weird, narratively speaking.

 

And I don't have any definitive take on what to do with Falere. It's just like the Krogan. On one hand, I generally like the "Padok Wiks" approach. Let the evolutionary process decide who lives and dies.

 

But evolutionary process usually contains more challenges. There are very few for Ardat Yakshi or Krogan. It's like Vampires and T-Rex (rather, T-Rex with the birthrate of turtles, lifespan of a Redwood tree, and adaptation speed of a virus. Wonderful).

^This

Also, there might be a chance for her to kill them all and save Rila. Hope dies last ;)

Do the krogan really adapt? I thought they were just able to shrug off challenges that nature threw at them, not adapt to them. Adaptation is Vorcha territory. ;)

Perhaps that's not the right word. They have 3 organs apiece and fast cellular regeneration (like the vorcha).. I forgot what Mordin said that caused a resistance to the original genophage... it had something to do with this though.

 

Either way, they were intentionally created to be but nothing but a problem and screw with players.. forcing even well meaning people to consider genocide.

On a big sidenote/only slightly related to ME..

 

 

But I finished re-watching all the Batman trilogy. It kind of evokes similar themes to me (chaos/order especially in the 2nd film..and how far you should try to control the environment).. but the ending kind of gives me the same feeling as ME. I kind of see Shepard ending up like Bruce and Selina. Anonymous and finally have a normal life. All of this is in the Mass Effect ending too... but people don't get pissed off about Batman ending in a similar way (as a high ems destroy shep, I mean).

Yeah, they were presented as insanely tough but not very adaptive. It took them quite some time to develop immunity causing Mordin to modify the genophage. The genophage simply wouldn't have worked on the Vorcha, they'd adapt in days :D

 

I think it was mostly their crazy reproduction rates that caused people to think twice before curing the genophage. With all their strengths except that one they are not as big a threat. Which is exactly what genophage did :)

Well, if it's for everyone to escape....

 

Anyway, finally did another Geth-Gold-Angry Pink Krogan solo at Giant (Devices - Pizza - Targets), which completed the last Gold challenge required for the Solo banner, plus a token Reapers-Bronze-Goddess with my Smashguard (Devices - Devices - Devices...thanks game :P) with a shiny 10 Waves Survived medal :)

 

Only 4 2 more Bronze solos remains, which is more mere paperwork than anything else :P

 

EDIT: 2 done....including a flawless one (no consumables used).
