I was never able to convince Kelly to have dinner with Shepard without taking the "seductive" dialogue choices. I tried in one play-through to exhaust every dialogue option available and continue speaking to her in a friendly manner. I even made sure to talk to her every time I recruited someone or completed a significant mission where she actually has something to say about that mission. I still couldn't get the dialogue to invite her to dinner. I keep hearing that you don't have to romance her in order to have dinner with her or to have her feed your fish, but I haven't been able to figure it out. I just continually seduce her enough so she feeds my fish, but I don't ever invite her to my cabin after the SM. The only downside to this is that I miss that....fascinating encounter. Come ME3, she speaks as if Shepard and her were just friends, so it works out in the end either way.
I've never . . .

Never made sense to me that she only appears if you had sex with her in ME2.
Yeah it never really made sense to me either, but I was never a fan of hers in the first place so it's no skin off my back

-Wrex always lives
-Rachnni queen always released on Noveria
-Council always saved
-VS always rejoins crew post Citadel II
-Majority (if not all) of the crew survives the SM
-Genophage always cured
Tuchunka bomb always defused
-Vast majority of choices go paragon. Even my "renegade" shep ended up being a pretty lame, middle of the road paragade.

I have never seen a more boring playthrough in my life. Get it sorted!

Is that true, though? You don't need to flirt with her or romance her to have dinner with her, for example. Can be a friendly dinner.
Relevant post from Dusty Everman.

-pre-Chronos station party will basically be Shep, Liara, Joker, and.......info drone, maybe? Can I kill James somehow?
James can only die on the beam run if your ems is below 1900.
This is what a group photo looks like in the Citadel dlc if squadmates that can be dead are dead or not invited

I only had her come to the cabin for dinner and she still appears. I'm pretty sure all you have to do is get her to the status of fish-sitter and she'll be in ME3.

It's like I have some kind of paragon tourette syndrome - I can't not pick the upper left / upper right dialog option.

That was what my first playthrough looked like and I had fun with it.
Since then however, I found out it's much more satisfying if you mix it up a little. More realistic too. I can never and doubt I will ever be able to play full renegade, they are just too... something. But I love paragades and renegons with all my heart.

I have tried renegade runs a few times, but those games remained uncompleted (or Shepard turned paragon^^). You'd think it'd be easy, just click the dialogue option and be done with it...but I can't ![]()
I think my only major renegade decision was sabotaging the cure in my Wreav playthrough (the quarians vs geth decision didn't give you any renegade or paragon points, iirc). Some renegade interrupts are just too funny to not take of course...
I spared Brooks (even tried to save the clone). But I always let Aria have her fun.

Never killed Brooks either.
I've always been at least an 85% Paragon player. I choose dialogue that I would more likely use if I were in the situation.
This is my first ME3 playthrough where facial scarring is beginning to appear.

My renegon managed to be a pretty decent person, while still having a scarred visage and glowing red eyes. She changed more to paragade in third game, but still, she was the most renegade Shepard of all I had so far. I also found out it's much easier to play paragade/renegon when you import, because you have a buffer to act on.
As for Petrovsky... if I could, I'd let him shoot Aria. I've let her kill him twice, but damn, I really don't like her.

After finally doing one in my current playthrough, I agree. Paragade isn't bad either, but I very much prefer this one now. I find that it makes certain conversations much more interesting, even if they ultimately result as the paragon alignment would have had it. The best one is the genophage arc. Keeping the deal/sabotage a secret and confronting Mordin makes for a much better dramatic scene, even if you let him cure the genophage anyway. I like that you get to reveal the secret to Garrus on the bridge of the Normandy, and Javik says that he would have tricked the krogan instead of how Shepard should have taken the deal.

Never tried renagon, the only time I've ever played renagage it was full-on renegade, mostly just to see the differences. That character petered out half way through ME2, I disliked her so much I ran out of enthusiasm to continue. A "natural" playthrough for me (i.e. replying as I see fit and trying to avoid considering game mechanics like the meters) gives me a minimum of 75% paragon.

Different strokes for different folks, but I like having the more aggressive/severe type of character while still saving the same people. It kind of builds up in all those little conversations. Like with Victus' son on Tuchanka, I basically chose nothing but renegade dialogue for him. I especially like the one on his first encounter that's paraphrased as "kick their asses". It kind of makes more sense to say when you're standing around in a war-torn hellhole and learning that Cerberus is controlling a big ass superbomb. There's the intimidate option for Kaidan during the Citadel coup, which I thought was pretty great, and with Balak, the encounter goes over better if you intimidate him rather than charm him, etc. I guess it really depends on what manner of renegon you're playing. So far, the body count is no different than previous playthroughs; Shepard just isn't as nice about it.

Those examples sound more paragade than renagon to me - ultimately the paragon results, achieved by a more aggressive approach. I like that sort of playthrough, but find no entertainment in being a jerk.

Heh, never had to work in retail for an extended period of time have you? After having to be nice and polite to everyone, especially on days where almost everyone you have to help are complete f***wits or idiots, having the option to be a complete jerk for once can be...extremely satisfying. Leaving Jacob's father on the colony to be ripped apart by the crazies for example can be therapeutic.Those examples sound more paragade than renagon to me - ultimately the paragon results, achieved by a more aggressive approach.

EDIT: For the record, I'm usually play as a paragade. I'm not usually an ass most of the time nor do I usually enjoy being an ass. But every once in a while...well

I have one fully paragon Shepard, two paragades and one renegon.
The latest is the one I had most fun with and also the one that made the most mistakes during her career. She is my canon and let me tell you, despite all the hardship she has endured, I wouldn't change that canon for any other that had their happy ending. She is just so much more real than all the others.
That's not to say I didn't enjoy all the other Shepards. But this one I really feel with.
