Mass Effect Insanity speedrun update:

1. Shut down the Rogue VI on Luna, took the Shock Trooper specialization. Sold extra inventory, went to the Citadel and bought the Medical Exoskeleton from Dr. Michel. Was forced to chat with Rear Admiral Mikaelovich, and he inspected the Normandy.

 

2. Went to Feros, defended the colony from a Geth attack. Took the old Prothean skyway to the Exogeni building. Cleared it of Geth and found out that Exogeni was studying a plant form called the Thorian.

 

3. Went back to the colony and killed a bunch of Thorian Creepers. Managed to spare all the colonists except Fai Dan who shot himself. Went underground and killed the Thorian, then found an Asari named Shiala who gave me the Cipher so I could understand the Prothean vision.

 

4. Went back to the Citadel, got locked out of the Normandy by Udina. Anderson punched Udina so i could escape.

 

5. Went to Ilos and found an old Prothean VI and the Conduit. The Conduit was a mini Mass Relay that was a back door to the Citadel. Took it to the Citadel.

 

6. Went up the Citadel Tower and stopped Saren from bringing back the Reapers. Told Joker to save the Destiny Ascension. Sovereign took control of Saren and I killed Saren, then the fleet destroyed Sovereign.

 

7. Let the politicians figure out who then human councilor would be,

 

Mass Effect 2 importer utility says total time was 7 hours 30 minutes.

.

.

.

 

8. Imported Harry Shepard into Mass Effect 2. Seemingly died during a Collector Attack.

 

9. Woke up on Lazarus Station. Shot a lot of mechs, then buggered out with Miranda and Jacob.

 

10. Went to Freedom's Progress, killed more mechs, found some Quarians, discovered the Collectors were abducting human colonies. Took back an Omni Tool with lots of data.

 

11. Got a new Normandy and my old pilot Joker. 

 

Not sure if I will play more tonight or if I will relax and do something else. No way do I finish ME2 tonight obviously.

Full of spoilers...

 

Jay Shepard:

 

1. I found Leviathan.  I had to wear an ancient atlas mech that Cortez had found on 2189 Despoina and use it to drop more than 3000 meters below the surface.  Boy was Kaidan unhappy about it.  I thought I was face to face with some kind of Reaper except this one was organic.  I learned how its race created the Intelligence - the thing we call the Catalyst - to solve the problem of synthetics destroying organics.  The Intelligence created the Reapers and turned on the Leviathan race.  I convinced the Leviathan to fight against the Reapers.  Later, EDI pointed out that since the Reapers failed to completely destroy their creators, they were fallible.  Also later, Kaidan acknowledged that my reckless behavior is one of the things he loved about me.

 

2. The Asari Counselor gave me inside info that might lead me to the Catalyst.  It turns out that the Asari had been hording at least one beacon on Thessia for thousands of years.  This is actually an illegal action so I wonder what the repercussions might be in the aftermath of the Reaper War.  I brought Liara and Kaidan with me because Kaidan made it clear he didn't want me going places he couldn't follow as I had during the last mission.  So, he's with me.  The devastation was terrible to see.  It's one thing to decimate humans, but to do this much damage to a biotic RACE is insane.  A lot of people died just making sure my squad made it to a temple dedicated to the goddess Athame.  Relics showed me just how similar Asari gods look to Protheans.  I almost wish I'd brought along Javik.  Uncovered a Prothean beacon VI called Vendetta.  I persuaded it to help until it retreated in the presence of indoctrinated forces - which turned out to be Kai Leng.  That bastard had crazy armor that I couldn't get past.  He was able to extract the VI and escape.  All those lives lost and we didn't even get what could have been a game changer in this war.  Fortunately, Communications Specialist Traynor was able to track him.

 

3. I was alerted to a Cerberus attack on the planet Ontarom.  They were trying to get crucial information from an Alliance comm facility and Admiral Hackett wanted me there pronto to stop it.  This was an Alliance mission so I brought my Alliance boys with me: Kaidan and James.  We stopped Cerberus with the help of technician Grace Sato, who guided us to crucial access points.  She did this despite great risk to herself since she's a non-combatant.  Also in the deal we found some Cerberus ciphers which I was able to pass along to C-Sec to help them against future attacks on the Citadel.

 

4. With that out of the way, we followed the trail of Kai Leng to Horizon, which was the home to the so-called "Sanctuary".  Upon arrival, Kaidan, Tali and I saw Cerberus and Reaper forces finally fighting one another.  However, other than that, all those who flocked to Sanctuary were nowhere to be found.  Video evidence along the way from Miranda and Oriana, as well as the audio files of Henry Lawson, told the tale of Sanctuary being a trap whereby refugees had one of three fates: 1) they were turned into husks, 2) they were indoctrinated or 3) they were used in other experiments.  All horrible fates with no justification, and this from an organization that claims to be fighting for humanity.  After fighting through all kinds of Reapers (cannibals, husks, banshees, etc.) we made our way to Miranda.  There was no sign of Kai Leng but Miranda was injured and Henry Lawson help a gun to the head of his younger daughter.  I talked him down and told him I'd let him live in exchange for information.  He agreed and let Oriana go.  But Miranda wasn't having any of that and used her biotics to send him to his much-deserved death.  Nothing about this mission felt like a victory but at least Miranda would be joining up with the Alliance.

 

5. When I got back to the Citadel, I learned that I was grounded.  I was told the crew needed a mandatory shore leave but in truth it was necessary to do retrofits to the Normandy.  Admiral Anderson gave me the use of his apartment.  He says it's a gift to me but we'll see what happens after the war.  Maybe he'll want it back.  It might be beyond my ability to afford.  The first thing I did was meet Joker for dinner at the most amazing sushi place on the Citadel, if not in all of Council Space.  We soon learned that someone had played us when Staff Analyst Maya Brooks told us that I was the target of a communications attack.  Then the physical attack began with some mercs shot up the restaurant looking for me.  I sent Joker to get the rest of the crew while I prepared to fight.  I took down one merc and got a hold of his weapon, the M-11 Suppressor.  For such a small gun it packs one hell of a punch.  I used it to take out all of my attackers.  Well, almost all.  One was hidden out of sight.  He would have gotten me had Brooks not pushed me out of the way and took a bullet for me.  Still, I was a sitting duck on the restaurant's most famous asset, the aquarium floor.  A merc took advantage of my position and shot the aquarium out from under me.  It was a long and painful drop.  As a fish owner myself, I felt sad to see them suffer but I also recognize that had it been a solid floor I'd have been dead.  Now I have to find my way to safety in the lower wards.

Insanity speedrun update:

1. Recruited Mordin.

 

2. Recruited Grunt.

 

3. Bought some upgrades. Was forced to scan planets for some resources. I wanted to mod my game save to give myself extra resources, but the program I used in the past refused to launch.

 

4. Started to recruit Jack, but I stopped partway through because I kept dying at the same spot and I was hungry and needed breakfast.

Still spoilers...

 

Jay Shepard:

 

1. Escaped the Lower Wards with my awesome new gun.  Kaidan was the first to show up to help me.  He also showed me that asking for something sometimes works over violence.  Learn something new every day.  When a C-Sec shuttle was full of mercs rather than allies, Wrex saved the day!  He's my hero.  Then we reconvened at my (Anderson's?) new apartment.

 

2. We traced the gun to the owner of the Silver Coast Casino, Elijah Khan.  However, he wasn't going to be easy to reach.  Fortunately, there was a gala being held that I attended with Maya Brooks and Spectre-Major Alenko.  After lots of mingling, dancing (Kaidan dances just like me), distracting and bypassing of security, the three of us made it to Khan's safe room.  Unfortunately, he was dead and someone wiped his terminal.  Fortunately, his comm was still intact and able to make a call.  It went to a shadowy figure who threatened to take everything from me, but gave no reasons why.

 

3. EDI analyzes the drives and we're able to track the thief to the Citadel Archives.  The mercs are called CAT6, indicating that they were all thrown out of the Alliance.  Sad bunch.  After a short fight, the leader reveals himself as my clone!  Did not see that coming and wish Miranda were around to shed some light on this.  He plans to replace me.  Another battle ensues.  My entire crew came along for the ride: Kaidan, Liara, Tali, Wrex, James, Garrus, EDI, Javik.  It's amazing that I earned the loyalty of these people over the last three years and that they were all willing to side with me.  A chase ensued, the clone stole my fingerprints and trapped me and my friends in the archives. It turned out Maya was working with him.  Fortunately, Liara's info drone Glyph was not captured and able to free us all.

 

4. Joker was freaked that his ship was about to be stolen.  I took Garrus and Kaidan with me to stop the clone from taking off.  There was another fight to get to the Normandy, but we were locked out.  Luckily, so was Traynor, having been booted with nothing but her very expensive toothbrush.  It's mass effect fields were the right tool to break us in and I was going to have to reimburse her for it.  I was really shocked that the clone was throwing out my space hamster!  Who could do that to such a cute and innocent little guy?  We faced down Maya and my clone.  When our fight left the both of us hanging off the edge of the shuttle bay, my friends came to help me up.  Maya, however, abandoned him.  I offered to let my clone have a chance to live but he instead let go and plummeted to his death.  Probably for the best.  Who knows what ideas Kaidan might get into his head?

 

5. Joker convinced me to throw a party.  I bought the supplies but before having it I spent some time with my crew.  Kaidan and I had a date.  Miranda dropped by for a drink.  James showed me his new N7 tattoo.  I got Garrus a date at Silver Coast Casino (almost a disaster).  I got to appear in Blasto 6 with Javik.  I saw Traynor take out an Asari opponent in "space chess".  I helped Zaeed win a plushy.  I fought with Jack at Armax Arsenal Arena, as well as with other squadmates.  I watched a game with Cortez and James.  I watched "Fleet and Flotilla" with Tali - a romance that Tali seemed to think was good.  Liara taught me to play a song on the piano.  Cortez took me for an awesome shuttle ride.  I've still got others waiting to meet up.  I'll eventually find the time.

Quick Insanity speedrun update:

1. Finished recruiting Jack (that was more difficult than it should have been).

 

2. More planet scanning. There is not enough Platinum in the galaxy.

 

3. Recruited Archangel/Garrus.

 

4. Stopped the Collectors from abducting the entire colony of Horizon. Yelled at Kaidan for being short-sighted. Also cheated a bit by hanging back and sniping the two Scions at the Defense Tower. Makes that section so much easier.

 

Then I took a long break to run some errands and eat some lunch. Will be resuming the playthrough shortly.
