Shep concerned with kids? Lol, nope.

If I was Shep, I would've sold Liara to the SB for Feyron as a squadmate in ME3.

[KaiserShep]

 The Yagh would just try to kill the whole lot of them anyway, just to tie up loose ends. What Miranda failed to mention is that some of the cybernetic implants inject Shepard with lots and lots of methamphetamines.

@Julia with a Shotgun, (or riding Shotgun): How do you rate different characters as heroic; especially considering this is barely ME1?

Apparently, omnitools can also take pictures. We as regular people already whip out our cellphones whenever we see some random nonsense we want to capture, so it's not hard to think that people with technology such as this wouldn't do the exact same thing.

Omni-tools are the best thing to ever happen to sapient life. There is not question. Computer? Check. Cmmunicator with video function? Check. Mass Effect field generator with built in fabricator? You know it. And it's a welder. Is there really anything else you can do but just make the omnitool run better. It can make even the lowleist soldier a medic with the proper functions.

It would seem kind of odd to try to sell out an ally to a person that tried to sell your corpse to the same monsters you're on a mission to destroy. The Yagh would just try to kill the whole lot of them anyway, just to tie up loose ends.

Hmm true, the SB must die. I'll just drop Liara off on an uncharted world and keep that nice ship to myselfB)

If I were Shepard, when Liara puts her head on your sholder, trying to make you embrace eternity, I would slap her. I don't know what you call that look Shepard gives to her, but I think it's called disturbed. Ninjamance.

Definitely would've convinced Miranda to join the Normandy when meeting her again in 3. Like someone else said, everything she needed would've been quite doable on the luv boat.

[AlexMBrennan]

The SB wants Shepard to sell to the Collectors, and doesn't care about Liara beyond her taking Shepard's corpse from him and foiling that deal in Redemption.

Ninjamance

The complaint by idiots who slavishly pick top right without bothering to read which ruined most ME3 character interaction. Yes, if you are too stupid to read then you will be surprised by the result of the choices which you didn't bother to read.

Practically everyone (or at least those who were OK with her) said/agreed to that.

[Br3admax]

Come to think of it, I were Shepard I wouldn't auto-dialogue to flirt with James so much. When did Shepard become Ashley?

Women wanting equal rights mean that I have every right to shoot them as they do me. They should not be put on a pedestal(unless you are in a relationship with one, in that case dear god man, stop reading.)

And really, why is Shepard so concerned with breeding children. Children are expensive, man.

My Shepard belongs to a rare (and likely dying) breed of Man.

Besides, now that the Reapers are destroyed, and mankind is at an all-time low, and assuming my Maleshep wasn't by some miracle a One-Woman-Only man, he would have to do his part in bringing mankind's numbers up again, and then afterwards join Wrex at the bar for bags of ice.

She does the same thing to Jacob too, which would probably feel even weirder to someone who recently saw this same person as "meat and tubes" prior to joining the team.

As for kids, I'm sure disposable income can fill the void spacer critters would have occupied.

All Shepards, regardless of gender or sexual oreintation will say stupid things to both of these characters.

@Myron: If that is how you think humanity and woman specifily work, then you should just scratch that plan now,

[TheMyron]

@Br3ad; Good Gravy, you need to lighten up, I was joking. You need to see/rewatch that Wrex and the bag of ice moment during the Citadel DLC. That's where the funny idea came.

[Br3admax]

You say the same thing over and over again, and people will start to think you mean it.

Defining heroism throughout the series is how evidence one presents is accepted by the Council and how one is treated by the Council and the writers.

1. Tali is the most heroic character in the series because the evidence she presents to the council could have been fabricated in a basement from voice samples, and she presents it to the Council regarding Saren and Benezia, and it is accepted as irrefutable. That single piece of evidence allows Shepard to be made the First Human Spectre, become commander of the Normandy, and pursue Saren Arterius. Hence, Tali's heroism is beyond reproach.

Every single one of Tali's missions ends in disaster, yet she is given a promotion from ancestors know what low rank to Admiral which is the largest jump in rank given to any character in the game. This and the fact that anything she tells the Council is accepted makes her the most heroic character of all. And Shepard owes his/her career to the Quarians.

3. Liara is the second most heroic in that she can only be killed in one particular circumstance. She makes the rise from Prothean scientist to Information Broker to Shadow Broker. She was so good at it that they had to steal lines from her and give them to Traynor because people were already going to rage about her. She's heroic because she got her own DLC. She's heroic because she got the best love scenes in both ME1 and ME3 (especially this one). But because she friendzones you and goes dumb takes away from her heroism, making her the second most heroic character in the series.

4. Kaidan Alenko is the third most heroic character. He got the second best promotion jump in the series going from Lieutenant to Major which Mass Effect makes equal to Captain which I think is a pile of dog doo doo. That should be equivalent to Lt Cmdr, but Bioware never went into the military. They just wanted Alenko to be more heroic than Shepard.

5. Ashley is not considered heroic because they tarted her up for ME3, and because of her mistrust of aliens her evidence would not be considered trustworthy by the council, thus her need to burn in nuclear fire.

In fact your entire team is more heroic than you are. The Council never believes you because you're just an uppity human who blows up every single bit of evidence. Dreams are your only evidence. You die and are brought back to life and work for terrorists making you less heroic. You go derp in cutscenes when it matters making you less heroic. If you're female, Jacob dumps you, making you even less heroic, which now leads to metagaming in ME2 using him as your tech expert on the SM since he volunteers. The only one less heroic than you is your clone, and that's pretty sad.

Heroic does not mean incredulous and nonsensical. A hero is someone who performs notable deeds of bravery that others aspire to. All of Mass Effect is about how Shepard is the hero of humanity. Anderson sets up the very first game as such, "Humanity needs a hero, and Shepard is the best we have."

I don't agree with everyone treating Shepard like Space Jesus, but the fact of the matter is, that others look up to Shepard as a role model, and that is what defines a hero.

@Julia; your whole response is one big "Ouch."

Javik is more heroic than Shepard.

Note when Shepard and Javik are together. "oh You're Commander Shepard!"

No...... It's Javik they're interested in. When Javik leaves, you're a nobody. You are not heroic. Javik is heroic.

1) I would have made use of obvious evidence to convince the council the Reapers were real especially after ME2. Surely Shepherd has a camera on his suit or helmet. Surely EDI has loads of irrefutable data. Surely the testimony of a justicar would be convincing to the Asari at least. Or the testimony of a former STG man to the salarians. If they didn't believe me, I would have gone straight to the press: to Wong and Jalani and divulged all the classified details of my Reaper-related missions.

2) I would have found a way to attack the Reapers in Dark Space as opposed to letting a trillion people get killed.

3) I would modified the genophage to give the Krogan a reasonable rate of population growth without massive exponential growth. For example instead of 1 in 1000 pregnancies viable, I would modify it to 1 in 500.

4) I would have gotten most of my ME2 crew to stay and stick it out with me.

5) I would not have submitted myself to house arrest. Shepherd literally does nothing for 6 months with the threat looming. I'd be trying to find more evidence to convince the council and alliance. Anything but do nothing.

In Me3 after escaping Earth, I'd tell Hackett to screw himself, then I'd set course for the planet Jacob's dad was on and go native. Let's face it, this cycle was too dumb to live

But on that planet, you would go dumb yourself.

And the reapers would not harvest you because you would be too primitive

Nicely written Julia. You forgot Garrus though, he gets promoted from ex-cop, to spec ops officer, to advisor who somehow outranks Generals in 6 months.

[AlexMBrennan]

That's "being given a job", not a promotion.

to advisor who somehow outranks Generals in 6 months.

He doesn't outrank generals but they chose to listen to his advice; a general does not have to be a technical expert in every detail of military operations - that's what their expert subordinates are for.
