The ending. But not for the reasons you might think. What happened on my first playthrough was that I thought I was supposed to approach the center after speaking to Starchild... and accidentally walked right into Synthesis without realizing that the choice was being made based on which direction I walked. I didn't want Synthesis, but it happened because I lost track of what I was doing. I was debating which choice I would make as I walked, thinking the decision would be made by choosing from the dialogue wheel once I arrived.

I still feel like green traffic lights are taunting me with that mistake each time I pass one.

Samara's loyalty mission. My canon Shepard was blunt to a fault. It was out-of-character for him to become an oscar-winning tool to be able to goad her into taking him back. Replayed and failed the loyalty mission. Looking forward to what changes (if anything) in the Monastery mission as a result.

I choose Morinth in Samaras loyalty mission. I was going for as renegade as I could get. When I got to the monistary in ME3 it's was kinda interesting. Won't spoil for ya

Yeah, did that. Kind of disappointed. One mention. Never came up with Falere. Email suggesting Morinth's attempts to contact her sisters were blocked, and nothing else.

I regretted not telling Kelly to change her ID.  I made it through the Suicide Mission with everyone alive, and the deaths in ME3 at least felt like they meant something, but coming off Tuchanka, and hearing an unceremonious news announcement of how she was simply executed by Cerberus hit home.

 

There was also the one time I saved Kaiden.  I immediately regretted that decision in ME2 and went back to ME1 to save him, I just really like Ashley.  I got enough Kaiden on my default run.

 

Also, I always kill the heretics now.  I wanted to when I first played ME2, but I was a compulsive paragon at the time who believed the lie that "upper left= good".  I didn't think it was right to brainwash then, and I know better enough now that you won't miss out on much if you let your inner renegade shine from time to time.

I don't replay and fix stuff. On later playthroughs I'll do things differently, but that's just to see different content.

 

Things my early Shepards thought they might have done wrong... first playthrough I outright botched Thane's LM by watching the wrong guy. And I probably should have done the SM the moment it became available rather than let the entire crew get juiced. These days I do that pretty much every time. Makes the SM more interesting.

Heh. I started going up Control thinking it was Destroy, then when I turned to go back everything blew up. "You took too long." Glad I'm not a strict RPer or it truly would have been a FailShep.

[Sir DeLoria]

I never met Kelly in ME3, so I could never make her change IDs. As a matter of fact, I never managed to have dinner with her.

[teh DRUMPf!!]

 Typically decisions I made when I was a young and stupid Paragon.

 

I regret: recruiting Samara; letting the rachni queen walk free on Noveria (would've been easier to kill the clone); executing Balak; talking to most of the crew after Thessia; destroying the Collector Base; rewriting the Heretics (I actually realized my folly right after the decision, but decided to own it).

Missing a war asset or whatnot due to bs glitches and bugs.

[Abelas Forever!]

I regret

- that I didn't get the best ending where Shepard breathes in my first playthrough because I did't have any DLCs at that time and I missed some side quests because I wanted to do the story missions first and I thought that I have time to do them. I had extended cut but it didn't help because I had failed so many things earlier. I might play the dlcs now that I have them and play the ending again or create similar Shepard and play the whole trilogy with her.

- that I didn't die on destroy ending on my second playthrough because I had done too many dlcs and side quests. I fixed that but I wasn't happy after all because I intentionally didn't do all the quests.

- I accidentaly flirted with Kelly and I had to reload.

[Kurt M.]

In my current playthought, I regret nothing, but in my previous one I regretted:

 

- Not killing that Rana Thanopthis ******.

- Choosing Rewriting over Destroying the Heretics (destroy is the best option).

I still need to figure out how to save Mordin in the SM. Otherwise my last play through was nearly perfect. First time I regret losing Kelly and Jack and choosing the Synthesis ending pre-EC.

This guide can help. I think the most common solution is to send Mordin back to the ship as an escort (if he's loyal).

The closest thing I have to regrets would probably be speaking to some characters, only to find out that their dialogue leads to ninjamace or auto-flirt. 

 

In the playthrough when my Shepard encountered Liara's romance glitch, it was the first time I had actually bothered to go through all of her conversations. She didn't interest me, and the Shepard I was playing didn't like or trust her (he's a little paranoid, and she's the enemy's daughter who wants to read his mind), so when she ended up locked into the romance dialogue after Shep said he wasn't interested, I just stared at the screen in shock and frustration knowing that I'd have to re-do the whole thing from the beginning. And I don't play for too long at a time, so a perfect game like that takes months. I kind of wished I hadn't tried to talk with her at all, but I was trying to see if my opinions on certain characters would be different if I heard all their dialogue. I just disliked them more after that. 

 

Also, making FemShep talk to Vega on the Citadel. I must have reloaded that conversation 3-4 times to choose different options, but it always ended with the same auto-flirt. Then I reloaded one final time and ignored him. I guess I don't really regret that though, because it was amusing to watch my family's reaction. "Didn't she just have a date with the other guy?  "

A unique challenge could be presented to you next time around. Go for the record of how many companions you can woo in a playthrough. Not talking about get with at the end, just enough to get them interested in you. 

 

I wonder if anyone's gotten them all in one playthrough......

[NoMoreCalibrations]

And I definitely regret recruiting that mutant Rahcni queen after I killed the original in ME1. I wanted to be Renegade and the Renegade option was taking it in for the war effort.

 

Then the dang thing waits until 60% of the game is finished before you find out it turns on you. 

 

CURSE YOUR SUDDEN BUT INEVITABLE BETRAYAL!!

 

I DIDN'T EVEN GET TO PUT IT DOWN MYSELF!!

Not with this Shepard, though. The poor guy is paranoid enough as it is! 

 

I will be doing something similar with my "EvilShep". He's not really interested in anyone, just manipulative.

I don't know if I would call these regrets, since most of them are meta. But I would have chosen Kaidan on more playthroughs because Ashley ends up becoming a fairly uninteresting character in ME3, at least compared to her ME1 self.

If I meta-gamed a play through instead of RPing, then I would probably save Kaidan purely because of ME3. But since I always send Ashley, the tank/soldier for the frontal assault with the Salarians, and Kaidan the techie with the bomb, and I can't leave Kirrahe and the Salarians in a more paragade playthrough (also because Kirrahe is ridiculously awesome) or leave the bomb unattended in a renegon playthrough, Kaidan says hello to nuclear hellfire. 

So no regrets there. 

[Tommy6860]

I really never have regrets of the choices I made because (for obvious reasons), I did not know what those choices would entail. I did however, do multiple runs where I made different choices to experience the differences. I don't feel with any of them, to having any regrets. Of course, if a squad-mate perished, it was sad (or not), but that was part of my decision making. I can say without a doubt that one of my saves that carried over into ME3 was regretful, in that it made that particular start of that ME3 game totally impossible, no matter how much the devs tried to explain it away. It was not a good start to the next in the series.

[SporkFu]

Been reading this thread and I wanted to quote Samara and say, "following the code has left me with no regrets." For me the 'code' would be my plan for how I wanted to role-play shep in each and every playthrough. Often the details will vary from game to game, and  sometimes I change my mind on the spur of the moment, but I always try to stay consistent to that plan of how that particular shep would act in any given moment. It's just who he/she is. 

 

So I wanted to say that I don't do regrets...  and then I remembered that in my current playthrough I forgot to click on Charr's remains on Utukku, and didn't realize I'd forgotten until I got back to the Citadel to deliver his dying message, and I couldn't.

I'd reload for that, if you're not to far ahead in the game already. That reminded me of another "regret", but it was one that I quickly fixed. In my first playthrough, I was not fast enough to click the Paragon interrupt before Mordin left to cure the genophage. I turned the game off and replayed up to that point so my Shepard could say her final words to him. Just didn't want to watch Mordin's death twice in a row like that. 

 

I play Shepard the same way. The only regrets are when I miss something that would be more true to their character, or when I choose a dialogue option not knowing that it will lead to something out of character.

I thought about it, but truthfully by the time I got back to the citadel I'd already done... let me see, Benning, the big gun on Tuchanka, the turian platoon and bomb; everything but the actual genophage cure. I felt bad for the blue rose of Ilium, but there was no way I was replaying all those missions on insanity, heh. For Mordin, though... well that's a different story.
