Since it showed TIM  pulling the handles in control and Anderson shooting the tube, why not show Saren or someone else running into the beam?

[von uber]

Because as me3 is the best place to start, most players won't know who Saren is.

That's why I added or someone else. Just not sure who it would be. Maybe have edi jump in the beam?

One of the things I would have liked to see was the option to use the Rachni, instead of the Krogan, as the ground forces to relieve Palavan.

 

 

Logistically, the Rachni are a heck of a lot easier to work with than the Krogan, seeing as how they come supplied with their own (natural) weapons and armor, a built in QEC system, unmatched efficiency and discipline, and a breeding rate that can get combat capable soldiers out on the field in matter of weeks vs. years for the Krogan. The only thing that the Rachni would need would be transportation, but that is the same issue facing the Krogan forces. Supply lines are a limited issue for the Rachni as well, seeing as how they don't have to rely on manufactured weapons or armor in order to contribute to the fight, and they can survive in extremely hostile environments that would kill or severely hamper other species. Communication blackouts are a non-issue for them as well as each and every Rachni has a direct connection to the Queen from anywhere in the galaxy.

 

 

Politically, the Rachni are preferred over the Krogan for the simple fact that they don't have a massive chip on their shoulder concerning the rest of the galaxy, nor do they refuse to aid in a collaborative effort to save everyone in the galaxy from extinction if their demands are not met.  The Queen is willing to let Shepard kill her because of the risk she may pose, where as Wrex would have told the Krogan to abandon the fight and quite possibly attack Alliance troops (judging from his comments after discovering the sabotage); if Wreave is in charge he will make quite clear that he intends to lead the Krogan on an aggressive expansion should they survive the war.

 

 

 

I would have liked to have the option to focus on helping the Rachni prepare for the war once the Queen is discovered. Once that side mission is complete, Shepard should be able to call up Hackett and tell him and Victus that an ally has been located that is not going to derail the defense of the galaxy just so we can play doctor. Wrex/Wreave will obviously be upset with this declaration, but if Shepard has a high enough Reputation and Paragon/Renegade score, he/she will be able to get the Krogan to back off, and agree to less of an everything or nothing solution. If the player still wants to, they can continue with the cure for the Genophage and get both the Rachni and Krogan ground forces, but it wouldn't be as vital to to war effort anymore.

a cutscene of FemShep kissing Kaidan at the hospital and moaning like she did with Thane... apparently we can't have that with BroShep... sigh...

[Vortex13]

I would alter the cutscenes and ambient dialogue throughout ME 3 to change everyone's declaration of going to take back Earth, to being one of working together to build the Crucible and defeat the Reapers. 

 

 

While I am not too keen on the contrivance at which the Crucible just happens to show up with an answer to the galaxy's Reaper problem, it was at least a logical goal that the races of the galaxy could work towards. Shepard's, Hackett's, Anderson's, etc. declarations at how the galaxy needed to unite so that we could take back Earth was nonsensical and foolish. Up until the last hour of the game; a day at most using in-game time; the Earth was completely insignificant and yet we have major characters, including Shepard discussing and preparing the logistics of a retaliatory strike against the Reaper occupiers. 

 

 

I would change the game so that characters like Shepard would be more realistic about the tactical significance of Earth, I would change it so that when Shepard asks Victus for Turian aid so that Earth can be retaken the Primach would just laugh at him and point to the continent-sized inferno on Palavan and say "What makes Earth so special again?"

 

I would change it so that Anderson would be merely fighting a stalling action; make it so that he realizes that help is not coming and so he is trying to keep the Reapers occupied on Earth as much as possible. Maybe even make it so that the grand plan to retake Earth is just a lie he tells the forces trapped there in order to give them hope.

 

Up until Cronos station all efforts would be devoted to completing the Crucible, and once the Reapers move the Citadel to Earth, it would be a frenzy of planning from people like Hackett to try and account for a last minute deployment to a Reaper held Earth. When Hackett arrives on the Normandy, he should privately confide to Shepard that he doesn't even know if the battle plan he literally just finished is going to work since he never considered devoting the galaxy's finite resources and manpower on an assault like this.

 

 

Instead of Priority: Earth being something that we have been working towards the entire game, it should play out like a desperate scramble to organize the assembled fleets in reaction to the Reapers moving the Citadel.

 

 

 

And speaking of the Citadel, I would change the ending slides to show that (if the player chooses) after the rebuilding is under way, the forces of the galaxy reinstalling the station to it's original position in the Serpent Nebula. It seems too disingenuous to me that it remains in orbit over Earth at the end; a galaxy wide effort to fight off the monsters trying to kill us all, but humanity gets to keep the symbol of galactic power and authority as a spoil of war? The Serpent Nebula is a neutral location, and reinstating the Citadel there would help to show that the victory over the Reapers was a united effort, instead of one carried out solely by humanity.

Renegade Interrupt - Kill Udina

Paragon Interrupt - Shoot the gun out of Udina's hand and shoot him in the leg.

Paragon Interrogation: Drag his ass back to the C-sec for interrogation. Proper questioning.

Renegade Interrogation: Drag his ass into a nearby restaurant into their kitchen for interrogation. Use the face to the stove technique for incentive to answer questions.

Which one do you think would be the most popular?

Don't remind me if how asinine a character assassination Udina got. What's worse is how everyone you talk to are completely tactless about it too "That bad yard got what was coming for him!"

Hell no! I liked Udina's character and his egotistical attitude.. But they took him way too far and out of character in ME3 because hurr durr indoctrination.

Sorry for my rant, but that's the only thing I can think of whenever someone references Udina in ME3

[TotalWurzel]

After the 2,000,000th time you hear "I was born in London you know" a renegade interrupt to say nothing, wait we already got that on autodialogue.

Sorry for  quoting my own, but this should be just before Liara comes in the room for the love scene.

[Excella Gionne]

I would have added no underwear sex.

First idea -

 

On Earth it could show a cutscene of a group of soldiers being swarmed by Husks and Banshees. They'd manage to kill the Husks, but one of the soldiers would be grabbed by the Banshee. Cue close-up of Banshee's screaming face as it was preparing to impale the soldier on its hand. Then you could see the face of a Geth Prime pop up behind the Banshee's shoulder. The Banshee would take a siege pulse/pulse cannon shot to the back of the head, and its screaming face would dissolve into blue goo.

 

Second idea - Indoctrinated Thresher Maw fighting Krogan.

 

Third idea - Krogan destroying Reaper with Reaper Blackstar.

 

Fourth idea - At the start of the game as the Normandy leaves Earth, it could go to a cutscene of a family sat down eating a meal - their house would promptly get invaded by Husks. At random intervals during the game (perhaps at the same time as Shepard's dreams) it could go to cutscenes of their experiences with the Reapers - inside one of their genetic facilities, maybe, or being turned into a Husk.

 

Fifth idea - Renegade option to hang up on Asari Councillor when she refuses to come to the summit - maybe a one-liner spouted from the intercom by Joker after you've hung up.

 

Sixth idea - Adept or Vanguard Shepard ripping The Illusive Man apart (like a warp effect) after killing Anderson. For engineers - freezing him with cryo blast before kicking him so he shatters. Infiltrators - vanish, reappear behind The Illusive Man and break his neck. Sentinels - Overload (almost like a taser) before stomping on his head like you do with Husks.

 

Seventh idea - beating the crap out of James for being reckless on Mars (renegade interrupt)

[Vazgen]

Indoctrinated Thresher Maw? On Earth? 

[Darkarus]

I actually felt like Liara was afforded a lot of extra bullshit in the third game. All the rest of the races had seen their world fall to the reapers, why did liara get special treatment? 

 

 

The difference between Liara and the rest of your squad is that one they are all soldiers and are better prepared for these types of losses. Liara is also younger relatively compared most of the squad also culturally for the Asari Thessia has never been threatened so that is also a major difference. James whines and bitches like all hell about leaving Earth, Ash whines about leaving Earth on Mars (Interupting my reunion with Liara btw) Not sure about Kadin as he is left on Vermire. Garus being Turian follows the idea of so long as one person still lives after the fight it was worth it. EDI being an AI has no emotional ties to Earth, Javik has lost everything already but his people excepted the idea of throwing everything at the reapers just to slow the reapers and Tali reclaims her home world in ME3 in an ironic reversal of fate the nomadic Quarians have a home and everyone else is losing their own. So Liara's reaction makes sense within the context of her character.

There's an easier reason: Mary Sue power. They gave it to her because she is the pet and was given everything.

Like a massive role in me2?

I would add that this book be banned from the extranet.

Really given everything? Her life is clearly sucks during the trilogy. First her mother becomes a traitor, then she/Shepard kill her mother, then one of her few friends/first lover dies traumatically she recovers the body but has to spend two years mourning and following a dark path of revenge because her actions lead to his kidnap/torture. Then Shepard returns to help her in her mission (Emotional Roller Coaster to say the least). Then Shepard after surviving a suicide mission spends the next six months under house arrest because of the what happened Bahak system. Meanwhile she hunts down the clues left by the Protheans to a anti reaper super weapon. Then her home world is destroyed and her people who the rest of the galaxy view as very beautiful are turned into terrifying monsters. If this is what being the writers pet gets I would hate to see what they do to a 'hated' character... 

[Darkarus]

What's the emotional roller coaster in LotSB? Honest question. I thought it was one of the more lighthearted missions. And the only reason I personally want to care about it is that maybe she has a thing for Feron. So I'll help. But that's just headcanon. 

 

I don't know about hated characters, but no one suffers a fate worse than a neglected Jack. Both for her upbringing, and afaik, she's the only one who can be indoctrinated (by TIM). Wrex also has it worse than most. And he knows it too... that's why he's so fussy in 3, and will make people wait until he gets a cure. I guess he must be one of the more hated characters though. They showed those stats awhile back where 64% of players don't even have him in their games. That's sad. And even if you do manage to be that 26 percent of people who have him around, they still let you commit genocide on his entire race. 

The emotional roller coaster is the combination of mutilple near death encounters (Sniper, bombing, merc army, rogue specter, Shepard's driving skills (or lack therof)) and Shepard having her back when she is in trouble just like back on Therium (I imagine that after 2 years of taking care of yourself the fact that Shepard showed up to save you again would shatter the confidence you had been building up). There is also the fact that she is trying to reconcile the dead body you were two years ago and that now your alive again.

 

As for Jack and Wrex yes their lives prior to the game sucked but in game you can help them overcome the demons of their pasts Jack for example get her students being able to train and treat them right which I imagine is rather cathartic for her. And Wrex goes from outcast to leader of his people. As for Phantom Jack (can happen to Legion too...) and Screw the Krogan I think those options are to satisfy the renegade/everyone dies style play through.

[Massa FX]

I second Mike's opinion concerning Jack @ Grissom Academy. There should have been an interrupt (renegade and paragon) for Jacks punch either being blocked or retaliated. Renegade interrupt would involve Shepard knocking Jack flat on her arse. .. and I want to see some blood. Paragon interrupt shows Shepard blocking Jack's punch.

 

"I told you not to trust Cerberus!" makes no sense because Shepard not only didn't really trust Cerberus, she left them and stole the Normandy after disobeying TIM when she destroyed the Collector ship. 

 

That scene was beyond annoying.

 

 

My second dream interrupt would be on the Citadel during the coo. Kai Lame jumps onto the police cruiser. Shepard (who is driving) looks at Garrus (or whoever is sitting beside her), smirks and rolls the cruiser upside down. OR, smirks and smears Lame all over the overpass that's right in front. Renegade interrupts FTW.

Kaidan; I understand why you cheated...

 

Femshep:

 

I hated how femshep had to put up with that during Kaidan's romance, even AFTER you thought it was resolved. Manshep could (quite rightly) tell Ash off by reminding her that SHE left HIM on Horizon. Femshep really needed something similar.
