I mean, I only play and replay Mass Effect because I'm so much better then anyone else.
I'm Commander Shepard. Don't cry for me. BioWare's fault for messing up my saga with Mass Effect 3. One can only hope I return.

You are being kind of closed minded if you think the ME universe doesn't have room for a protagonist outside of Shepard. Shepard's story was the reaper story. Let Shepard retire and hang out with Garrus on a beach already. He's earned it.
Let Shepard retire and hang out with Tali on Rannoch, farming Varrens already. They earned it.
I fixed that a little for you.
Now i can agree.
Have you seen TOR?
Revan is a bigger deity than Shepard ever was. To the point where it takes all that game's remaining main characters and the special snowflake PC (or alternatively 16 special snowflake PCs) to finally take him down.
Though it's never too late to one-up I guess.
So lets say BioWare doesn't pull it off better then male Commander Shepard. Would you then cry for my return?

Nope. She's in Vancouver having drinks with Samantha. She's earned it
You guys all think I wasn't the best protagonist this side of the galaxy? Male Commander Shepard made Mass Effect much better for me.
femshep made it better

And it annoys the heck out of me to see this ****** been revived more often than Jason Vorhees.
That is one reason i am fine with ME:A without shepard.
Still i will miss Tali and the others of the bunch, but well...
All of you are wrong by way. My previously male Reaper Overlord Shepard would laugh at your ignorance, if he remembered how. Or cared at all.

Great now you are going to ****** off the femshep fans and we will have another maleshep vs femshep war on our hands. Good thing I like both sheps.

I like Jason.

I'm male and cannot compute such a ridicules claim.

But seriously. I tried to play with female Shepard several times already, and couldn't make if very far each time. Part of the reason I started this topic. Male Commander Shepard is the only way I can play this game. I think he's one of the best protagonist in videogame history.
I like Jason.
Me too, but i dislike the wimp that Revan has become in SWTOR.
And i am tired to kill him with my Sith Juggernaut, but well, i don't play SWTOR anymore, so shall they keep their undead-alwaysreturning-jumpingjack.
I like Jason.
There seems to be a lot of spoiler issues in regards to other BioWare games I haven't played yet in this section.

Pffft, The Exile kills a planet before the game starts and is also accidentally eating the Force.
Best horror movie character imo
Bzzzzzt. Wrong answer.

It's sooo.... this gif.
Shepard lives on in my headcanon and she's kicking arse, not getting a fat arse and beer belly on some beach. She's a soldier. But that's another discussion.

You see the subtile kind of violence i used to do that to you?
The dark side of the force is strong with this one.
Btw, i am one of the males who, too, can't really enjoy playing a female character.
I tend to identify myself with the character sooner or later.
Thats the reason i also never made it to finish the game as paragon.
But thats why shepard IS special for many people (and for others not).
As i wrote in the other thread, Shepard is special because everyone was able to put alot of personal emotions and characteristics into his role.
No matter if you play him like your real-life-self or roleplay different stuff
He/she had to do some things to keep the game going, but it was the player who made him/her a special shepard (or not).
(and until the stupid ending, but well *cough* anyway)
