I have a confession to make. I've put ME2 on ice again, because, the playstyle is nut my cup of tea (if I have to scan one more planet, I just explode the thing - Garrus, stop calibrating and start shooting). Instead I started Kingdom of Amalur, which is really beautiful and more a mix between DA2 and TES gameplay wise. But to not go completely out of topic, I named my character Fyliara (thanks, spacey, for that idea) This is she: I probably will resume ME at some point, I want my Garrus romance, but I really don't like the fighting system a lot. TBH it makes me sometimes a bit nauseic, I have the same problems with Dishonoured 2, a game I really like, but I can't play more than an hour. Did you scan the gas giants in the solar system though? That's very important. Sorry you aren't liking it. I never finished alamur. I should. Combat wasn't my favourite but maybe if I switch to a mage.

Combat wasn't my favourite but maybe if I switch to a mage. No more plaent scanning for at least a month I love combat in KoA, it's very stylish. I'm a rogue/mage hybrid - love it. I don't have any points in the warrior tree (apart from that starting point). At the moment there are a lot of spiders though, I never thought, I would play through a game with a spider map. Hopefully that questline is finished soon

I've been on the road. So much has happened Am I correct that all the people who have votes on them are tied at 1 vote? I may still be changing my vote of it means protecting adonniel by offing someone else. I need time to get home and count up the current votes.

Well, it seems that everyone has decided that Adonniel can tell no lies, or she bribed you all with chocolate, who knows. That said, that puts me in the lead in votes at 2. With everyone else (minus fylimar, who has zero) having 1 vote. If you all decide to stay this course, you'll be, in fact, losing someone from the heroes side. I'd throw more hints, but I'm fairly certain they were rather obvious so it should be clear who I am. So, my first thought was... I guess I'll have to start a campaign against Pela, but then I thought, I'll go at it differently and propose an alliance with pelassarias instead. Should you be willing to switch your vote from me to someone else, I will follow your vote with my last switch. That would give the recipient 3 votes thus saving me (and keeping you safe from a retaliation vote, as you could only have 2 at most) and gaining you an ally in the future. Obviously I can't guarantee safety from any other disgruntled/suspicious voters, but I have to try something here... EDIT: dragontartare I'm actually in the lead 2 votes to everyone else's 1 vote. After I switched to try to save you from the evil Adonniel...

Voting Update:
Adonniel 1 Dragontartare 1 Moonae 1 Pelassarias 1 Romice 1 SgtReed 2 Space Cowboy 1
As you can see we have 6 people with 1 vote and 1 person with 2 votes. Only 1 person, Fylimar, has no votes.
At this point I think I will give everyone another 24 hours and will then close the vote at 10pm, 22:00 hours GMT on 14th March.

My switching at this point would at best cause a tie.

I answered you before quickly from work, and messed up the text while on my phone I like your character! I'm glad you liked my nickname too There's a certain gas giant in the Sol system in ME2 that gives some funny text when you scan it, so when you do get back to it, be sure to enjoy that Although a non native speaker may not get it? not sure.

I'd throw more hints, but I'm fairly certain they were rather obvious so it should be clear who I am. Actually, I haven't the foggiest. But if I were to guess, do tell, is your framing of me contained to one voting round or do you intend on keep doing it for the rest of the game?

As for the question, if I live... whether my role holds grudges or not will come into play.

Ooii, you've started it with trying to kill me. And I'm not exactly a pushover either. Are we going to have to tear the ship apart? It will be fun, but if you're innocent you better hope the villains die laughing because we'd totally blow two super powerful hero skills over each others' heads.

Can't help with gameplay. If you're not fond of or dislike shooters, then ME will not gel.

Regarding ME2. I've taken Dragon's advice and used that mod which auto solves all puzzles and scans the entire planet with 1 probe. It's extremely useful and cuts down the boring scan time by 99.9% Extra kudos to Dragon.

The combat that is, the scanning in me3 is less but comes with its own challenges. The gibbed editor is a good idea, but I'm an oddball who doesnt mind scanning

Have you started ME3 yet? The very start up to a point where they get picked up by the shuttle. I went back to finish DA2 game after. I got my 2nd play siding with the mages done. Then I continued Blackwall/Cullen Inq game. I haven't done the Titans quest before. I'm in the middle of doing it, but I got annoyed because I hit a bug where one of the mobs that has loot needed to advance has fled into a wall and there is no picking him out of it. I have to go back to a save that's rather far back, which involves a lot of running through the area. So, I was thinking about getting back to ME3 for a bit since I want to wait before redoing a chunk of that long quest, but I'll be busy tomorrow and Thurs, so probably this weekend.

I've tied Space and Dragon since I didn't want Space to get solely picked on. Me being nice to Space got me onto the chopping block. Why are you so convinced that Dragon is innocent by the way and sooooo sure I'm guilty? Hmm?? You should have the same amount of info about both of us unless your character has magically learned to find out other info. By the way, unlike my role, the face paint warrior CAN be of either alignment, so you're way more suspicious than me.

The gibbed editor is a good idea, but I'm an oddball who doesnt mind scanning From a 'combatant's POV' combat is improved with ME3; the ability to dodge roll in any direction, to pull a mob over the cover to stab him and the biotic combos are more powerful. With improvement over the biotic combo detonation sound effects which are louder and clearer, it gives the feeling that you're doing something substantially destructive. Although much has been said about ME3 MP, the variety of races, unique biotic abilities and weaponry cannot be found in other MP games. It stands on its own. There's nothing out there that's on par with it (not even Andromeda MP). That's one of the reasons why I constantly play it. Land a reeve in a group of cannibals, a team mate cast a throw. That group of cannibals is blasted apart, flying all over. Or just for fun's sake, keep pulling that cannibal higher and higher into the air until it dies. Or biotic lash mobs right out of the map; I always do it such that they shoot up like a rocket, flying over everyone's heads (if there's no lag), or latch onto them as they hide behind a cover and pull them out. Sorry, no hiding from me. You're out! My fav is to cast a throw after a Cerberus trooper going after a team mate standing at the top of the ramp, he's propelled straight up. Or cast a throw as they jumpjet to the upper level or climbing a ladder, they popped into the air, screaming and flailing. Depending on where they are, they may drop into the abyss and die. The mob animation is good. They flail helplessly / wildly or spin in the air, Cerberus troops would scream, cannibals would screech, geth electronic squeal.

I was more saying if she didnt like the ME2 shooter style she may not like 3 either. but if you like shooters, yeah ME3 is probably the best of the trilogy.

Wow, some stuff happened while I was away today. And hey, it looks like I actually lead a bandwagon for awhile there. sgtreed, if I'm counting correctly, you're no longer in danger. So I'm just going to keep my vote where it is since I'm still unsure about you, even with your hint. No one is out of the woods yet, as some people still have the option to switch their votes. However, thank you for the consideration.
