Lordy, the number of times I've had the Collectors nab the crew and I've been tempted to just go for a little
cruise so Kelly can get blended.
Then I remember I'm crap at remembering to feed my fish, so I save her. If it wasn't for my fishies... [smilie]../../../images/forum/emoticons/grin.png[/smilie]
I hate those fish. How can you consciously spend 6666 creds on a fish when there are people like Lia'Vael out and about? And pulling and all-nighter with Kelly just to support my sloth tendencies. I refuse!

I don't necessarily try to make Shepard seem tough, I just try not to make him look like a **** when he talks to Jack. I still have him act compassionate and caring, but without him coming off as Mr. Goody-Two-Shoes, and many of the neutral dialogue options accomplish that. She doesn't like it if you are overly nice too, although you can still paragon romance her by picking all paragon dialogue options.
My Shepard is generally an ****. I keep him like that during the ME 2 playthrough as a way of saying "This is how Shepard reacts to the whole 'two years, and everyone's intentionally ignorant again'." Thing.
So I mostly choose renegade options. But I switch between neutral and paragon, too. Whichever is appropriate with the conversation.
Although saying "How many batarians did you kill for that one?" might not really be appropriate. Not in that situation, no.
Yeah that's the way I see it, at least. It depends a little on your background and choices, but overall ME2 set you up for a lot of "WTF" moments. Really? Sovereign was so completely destroyed there is still no Reaper proof? Really? Anderson and Ashleykaiden stonewall me? The all human council won't see me? The council I saved gives me the cold shoulder? Even if all of this is game mechanics to make the universe seem smaller/centered on Shepard, it still would leave Shepard IMO more stressed than s/he's ever been. That's why renegade lines were so badass in this game, it was dark and scary and those scars and red eyes seemed fitting.
So paragon in ME1 (always Colonist/Sole Survivor), get reborn in unfamiliar territory, have a psychological breakdown, turn Chaotic Good, do bad things to bad people. Nearly lose your identity, and then meet Jack.

Now, is that roleplaying or projecting? Idk, but it feels right
