Share Your Shepard! ME1, ME2 & ME3

So with ME2 I waited until I had finished the game before uploading some screen shots. I wont be doing that with ME3 but instead will be doing a couple of pictures here and there. While I do ultimately enjoy ME3, sometimes it's a pain to get through. It has some amazing moments, those moments are surrounded by story that is a chore to get through and writing which I can honestly describe as simply wrong.
But without further ado or ME3 rants here is Jeanne Shepard. I increased her face size a little because otherwise it seemed like here eyes took up half her face.

Nanci Shepard. I've only played her through ME1 so far.

Aeriel Shepard in ME3, keep in mind that she is a bit to dark to me. The reshade made her even darker, specifically the Curves.fx did that. I got rid of Curves.fx later on. I should've made her a bit lighter. Since mass effect 3 lighting is a bit too harsh in my liking, it makes it more difficult to customize my personal reshade preset. Some photos dont have reshade on, you might see a difference.

A future Shepard, Thomas, who is Earthborn, Sole Survivor and Engineer. I played just up until Mars to get a few screenshots. He's on hold until I complete my Twin Shepard run. I think you have to have a heart of stone not to get emotional about the beginning, even knowing that kid is probably fake. From my Shepard's point of view, it's horrible to see happening.

I'm a pretty big fan of this outfit. I just don't get why it can't have alliance colors like Ash's outfit that looks similar to this.

I find Aria far more obnoxious than him honestly. Her voice acting and general attitude is also really obnoxious in this DLC.  But yes, I wish Nyreen spent more time on the squad than Aria, and I also really love the Engineer reference when you are overloading the reactor.

I need to play this DLC once more with my broshep romancing Ash. This is because I don't think I have done this DLC with a male Shepard (because I hate the DLC), and I want to get the Valkyrie for Ash to use. 

What's also funny is that I love fighting Cerberus in ME3 MP, but I cannot stand this DLC even though they are the enemy 90% of the time.

Not that surprising. Samara is clear on her goals, will stand beside you without question and is among the more powerful biotics you ever encounter. She doesn't act like she's superior to Shepard but also doesn't lack confidence. She's the sort you want with you rather than against. She's also not like "I'm only 109" but then pretends like she's a hardened veteran.


I like Vanguard in ME2 much more than in ME1. Biotic charge is one of my all-time favorite powers. Though, in ME3, I really came to fall in love with Carnage. Charge also seems more powerful in ME3 (though Reave is less powerful). When you can wipe out two or three enemies with a charge, that's just downright amazing.

I also like Nova for those up close and personal battles, especially when you're surrounded.

Is that a mod to get that armour?

No, get a score of 9999 on combat simulator and buy it at the store in the Citadel DLC.

She's not like other Asari simply because she is one of the few Justicars. She says only a handful exists and they have to be different from the rest. So it makes sense. But I can see why it would make her more likable to some. I did initially like her. But the more I played the series, I realized Samara is someone I wouldn't like. Her code is super rigid and is "black and white" according to her. Anyone who has done wrong must die without remorse. I already didn't like that. She is also a renegade character herself but shuns any Shepard with a high renegade score even if they aren't actually mean. And yeah, if your Shepards are paragon, you will get along with her just fine because she is very friendly with you.

And just an example why Samara is a hypocrite. I was doing Thane's recruitment mission, and my Shepard at the time was ruthless and mean. I refused to aid the dying Salarian. Garrus actually argues saying it isn't right to leave him to die. But Samara bluntly says "there is nothing we can do for him." I thought she was supposed to protect the innocent? So what the hell?

I'm wondering why you are using shockwave at all. I think its one of the weaker powers in ME2. Pull/Warp combo is what I use for Vanguard. Have someone with overload and Vanguards are fine. I just find the class super repetitive. Pull/Charge/Shotgun to the face is all you do. In ME3, Nova sort of spices things up, but honestly, Vanguard isn't even challenging in ME3 like it is ME2. And yes, Adepts are awesome. Singularity is a great power and its my favorite class in ME3 MP also. Though I feel the class is more suited to females than males personally.

Thing here is that Samara took an oath to follow Shepard but said that, once the mission was over, she'd kill Shepard if she were made to do anything truly dishonorable. Samara is not a hypocrite but instead bound by a rigid code.
