So this is a thread for stuff you did that you might consider dumb or pointless, but did anyway because why the frak not, or little things you loved (perhaps a bit too much) or hated (beyond the obvious crap like endings, autodialogue, LIARA, etc.)

 

To start, I actually backtracked many hours of ME2 (after already putting a few hours into ME3) to get rid of the Illium skald fish. The more I looked at it, the more I hated it. It's just a big blue betta with an alien name, and aside from that, with the Prejek paddle fish and Thessian sunfish already in the aquarium, it was looking overcrowded, which irks my aquarium enthusiast's heart. I felt the twinge of regret having to scan all this crap and repeat missions just to remedy my aquarium, but I'd do it again.

Making Anderson councilor. Fortunately I only did it once.

[sH0tgUn jUliA]

My Illium Skald fish are floating belly up. I've never killed the Rachni queen. I'm going to do that this time for lolz.

 

Funny thing was that my first time through ME3, I killed her because "I was tired of fighting Rachni."

[KaiserShep]

I reloaded the Therum mission multiple times just to see if I could get a squad member to fall into the lava. A geth armature finally took out Garrus and I watched him roll down and just lay there on top of it, having him reappear by my side after killing all enemies in the area. It's too bad the save menu doesn't allow me to get back the minutes of my life that I wasted.

I confess that having James disable the AA guns while saving admiral Koris still makes me laugh as much as it did the first time.

Also, I always scare Boo at least once with the husk head from Bryson's lab.

[KaiserShep]

I wish that the husk head could've stayed in the cargo bay rather than Shepard's cabin. It would've been amusing to have Cortez be freaked out by that thing.

That husk head was a huge missed opportunity for Bioware. This was an M rated game after all but I know kiddies play it. But Shepard is supposed to be losing it as the game progresses. He/she has no one to talk to. Everyone is dumping their problems on Shepard. So the way I figure it, between missions (any mission) Shepard could have gone to his desk, or liquor cabinet, and pulled out the head, red sand, or some booze, and fired up a cigarette. Sat down on the couch, and put the head on the table. Then either done a couple lines of red sand or knocked back a couple shots of whiskey and had a talk with the head. Just a Shepard monologue b*tching about everything that's happened so far. You get two autodialogues of b*tching. Nothing is sacred. If you want to do more, you've got to drink more or do another couple of lines for that extra special one. But then you've got to return to duty.

 

But remember, the more you do, the more likely you'll lose control over YOUR Shepard, and after a mission your Shepard will head up to his/her quarters and drag out the head and red sand or booze and starts smoking. Then during the Battle of London -- Shepard in cover fires up a cigarette, and leaves it in the corner of the mouth.

 

Then in the completely lost it category - asks TIM for a cigarette on the Citadel. Then... "any red sand?"

 

Then the ending may have made sense.

I approve of this idea. In my sole (to this point) insanity run, I imagined Grunt in Shep's head, mocking him every time he died.

[Farangbaa]

I act like I'm Minsc, out loud, whenever I look at the miniature giant space hamster

[Excella Gionne]

Umm... on my first playthrough through ME3, I let Anderson die, 'cause... 'cause I didn't want to be a bad guy.

"Good stuff"

 

It always annoys me that the ME2 Normandy upgrade holographic overlay for Sensors and Fuel upgrades are mixed up.

 

I still hunt for every little piece of Mineral in ME1 and 2.

->I know I have enough, but I neeeeed this!

I try and change the colour scheme and look of the armour every mission - even if it means having extra melee power for an adept.
I also generally choose a weapon and upgrades and just stick with them through a play through. Generally rule of cool when it comes to the weapons.
In fact I spend more time thinking about the colour schemes and outfits than I do in upgrades in general.

These things are important, and I don't feel the need to max / min stuff.

Accidentally colour themed squad only noticed it when I looked at the screenshots

[pablosplinter]

I have played ME many, many times and every single time I get stuck on the puzzle where you are restoring the mainframe VI and just randomly move them around...I have no idea why, I just can never be bothered to work it out.

 

I always manipulate the Suicide mission so that at least 2 people die, otherwise it kind of lacks abit of impact I find.

 

I never speak to Cortez

 

Zaeed is by far my most used squadmate in ME2, as I think it just makes sense to take him for quite a lot of the side-missions(going up against mercs etc). Jacob is my least used. In ME3 I almost always take Garrus or Tali with EDI when I can.

 

I REALLY can't stand Hackett.

[Steelcan]

I linger on Mordin's missions because they are my favorite ones in all of the series

[ImaginaryMatter]

I hate the Normandy pick-up scene more than life itself, so much so that in recent playthroughs I play without the EC.

[mybudgee]

I am still bitter that I couldn't import MY Femshep in ME3 until six goddamned months after release. This to me was worse than the color-coded endings... Unforgivable

I wish they did this instead of the stupid dream sequences. It would have been so awesome to see shepard having a fatalistic monologue with a husk's head.

[KaiserShep]

Same. He and Garrus were pretty much my solid side mission squad for the entirety of the game. Every merc raid was basically with these two. Zaeed is now a must for Archangel's recruitment for me, because he knows Tarak, which makes the conversation more interesting.

 

Shepard "You know this assh*le, Zaeed?"

[Jorji Costava]

The main dumb thing that I do is in the confrontation with Saren in ME1; even if I have the paragon/renegade option to persuade Saren to kill himself available, I don't take it. I could understand that option if Saren and Shepard were two characters who had some kind of personal history together, but I didn't care for the whole idea that Shepard is so persuasive that you can persuade an indoctrinated anti-human racist that it's a good idea to kill himself; it just took the 'awesomeness of Shepard' angle a little too far for my tastes, to the point where I'm willing to put up with the additional fight to avoid it.

[sH0tgUn jUliA]

In ME1 I could never not fully renegade Saren. This is the way I play the ending. Because of all the paragons on Youtube, I actually had to ask someone on the HTL forums to make this... Enjoy.

I am responsible for every single bit of Mass Effect Rule 34.

[sH0tgUn jUliA]

I confess I have romanced Liara in every single play through of Mass Effect. Every one. That is 14. I may have romanced Thane or Jacob in ME2, or Kaidan at some point, but there is at least one time where I've romanced Liara.

My femshep has never romanced anyone except Samantha.
