Mass Effect Legendary Edition - New Players Discussion

Finished that one yesterday. It's pretty long. It took me two hours to complete.

I was playing a full paragon. Aria let him go without any input for me. I still pointed the gun against his head though...

To be honest, I always headcanon'd that most Cerberus bigwigs cast cutscene stupidity on Shepard once entering the stage. Petrovsky seems to lack that ability, so we are not forced to respectfully stand in attention, listen to his ramblings and then be railroaded into agreeing with him, doing his dirty work or behave stupid so his agents get away.

Well said! TIM can go fuck himself several times over. So glad when I got done with 2 I shared my thoughts on our "alliance" together.

Wait did I miss something who's TIM?

In the original, I don't think you could even go back to Omega after the mission, so the side quests would stay incomplete if you didn't already do them. I don't know if MELE has changed that, though.

I tried going back but I could not find where they were.  Once the quest was done they dropped Shepard off by the Citadel.

You cannot go back to Omega. You have to complete those quests while on Omega.
Eden Prime has a similar issue where a sidequest can remain unsolved after you complete the main mission.

Omega side missions:
1. Get a Kehri inverter for a Batarian. You get and must complete this quest in the second part of Omega (locate the Talon leader). It is located near some lockers in the area where Aria gives her speech to Omega. Give it back to the Batarian to complete the quest.

2. Activate consoles for a human. You get and must complete this quest in the second part of Omega (locate the Talon leader). There are three consoles in total. Activate all three to complete the quest.
- First console is next to another console to open a big door (after climbing a ladder to get to it, near the small elevator that contains a shootable barrel and a weapon mod). This should be before your first enemy encounter in the section.
- Second console is located in the room with a lot of computers with the Cerberus Engineer starting next to the Shield Pylon. It is on the lower floor near the corner.
- Third console is in one of the small rooms off a narrow hallway that contain computer consoles. In one of these rooms, you can activate a console that lets Talons escape through a door while they are fighting Cerberus. The console should be in the other small room.

3. Find Aria's couch for Harrot (the Elcor). After activating the walkway, it is across the walkway and down a ladder. Interact with the couch to complete the quest.

Hope that helps. I have missed the consoles and Kehri converters more than once in my various playthroughs.

I wouldn't worry about it. When you play the dlc again, remind yourself to complete those side missions.

It's okay I'll just keep an eye out for them when I eventually replay the series once I am done.

I don't think you can. At least, not originally. If you try to land on Eden Prime again, does it let you?

There are three bits of data you find on Eden Prime for that quest. You don't actually talk to any colonists, unfortunately.
