D.A. fan is back for an ME1 Text Only 'Let's Play' (page 51)

Ominous tip (actually no spoiler but putting it in spoiler tags anyway):

Great. So, keeping in line the logic that only those who come with me stay alive, and everyone else dies behind me covering the door....

Thane and.... Ugh. But I like Jack, Mordin, Garrus, Grunt, and Samara.

Miranda and Jacob and Zaeed can die. But I can only pick two to go forward with me.

Edit add: I picked Thane and Grunt. Because Grunt is needed to bring strength back to his race.

Mordin could have come up with the cure...

Feel like I'm failing Jack.

Garrus is a major returning character so he probably has plot armor.

Samara is the most willing of all to lay er life down on the line.

And Zaeed would be a better man dying an honorable death. Best death he could ask for.

Oh. And cerberus doesn't need a cheerleader anyway.

I should be sleeping, it's past midnight and work tomorrow.
I really should.
Grnnnngngngh!

So....who else survived??

Everyone survived but Legion and his consiousness is a group anyway. So I don't really consider him dead.

Samara struggled with the shield towards the end and Jacob got shot but was okay. They tried to make me think Grunt would fall off a ledge but I got to him in time. And then one more scare When both Grunt and Thane were still under the rubble.

But only one "death" with only my emotions to guide me.

I don't know if this counts as a spoiler so I'm going to tag it just in case.

Nope, no other DLCs. I think I'll pass. I don't like doing missions after a main mission, there is no more romantic or companion content to do in between. Everyone is saying stuff that doesn't make sense... Kinda like post Cory in DAI, where the companions kinda break.

And I want to "read the sequel." Besides, I have 6-8 more gaming hours on my off day with no friends or anything else to do on a touchy computer that may corrupt my save anytime. Let's doooooo it.

Pondering if a new thread is in order.

This one has a lot of computer stuff in it

Is it safe to look at the Suicide mission thread and not spoil ME3?

Or should I just assume that literally anyone could have died on that mission in ME2?

ROFL

I was kinda thinking about that when I wrote that I'd hope he'd die. How the feelings did change... I disliked him more and more as the game went on. How irritatingly solider and bland he was. How a Merc soldier got to come in my Com room and try to tell me what to do. GRR. I also disliked Zaeed for just being irredeemably awful. And Miranda just seems too weak and robotic to like.
