Not sure how to answer this because there is a difference between time and time used well. What I do know is that having nearly a decade pass in between releases is not a good way to keep your top franchises relevant.

I have the weirdest relationship with this game. I won't touch it for a couple years then I will play it almost obsessively for 2 months straight but always starting over from scratch and while trying to play all the class stories which means I have 8 characters I alternate between then I eventually burnout and repeat the same process a couple of years later when I get Star Wars hungry but never getting anywhere.

I enjoyed Kenobi. Some episodes were better than others but I enjoyed it and that last exchange between Obi-Wan and Anakin/Vader made it totally worth it.

Shepard received his training and honed his skills in the alliance. and Cerberus brought him back to life and augmented him with cybernetics which made him stronger faster and better. And then tried to kill him.

Cerberus. There would be no Shepard without them. and in me2 they're actually effective. The alliance can suck an egg Shepard received his training and honed his skills in the alliance.

Kind of sorry this thread died out. I got caught up in something else myself and left my last Shepard hanging.

I only play custom Shep but it’s so weird to me that the modern fandom thinks customizing a character is wrong. Do they know what an RPG is? Lol Thinks customizing a character is wrong? See this is why my faith in humanity wanes. Our society is deteriorating before our very eyes. I didn't even know Sheploo vs Custom Shep had become a thing. To me it's a personal preference thing. I go with custom Shepard because it gives me a sense of ownership in that Shepard.

Yes Kandros is the Turian in charge of security on The Nexus, he makes a comment about his sister (?) Nyreen going pirate IIRC. If you miss the item you need to find in a quest it SHOULD show up on the Spectre terminal for you to buy is my understanding but has not done that for me in some PT's. Nyreen and Tirasn ae rcousins I believ eno tsister/brother but yes they're from the same family He actually references her when you talk to him. He mentions that cousin Nyreen "went Pirate on Omega".

Lol definitely would not make it through the conduit on foot. Has anyone tried to take down a Thresher Maw on foot in ME1? I know someone on these forums said they tried, but failed to do it. I attempted it once, but the new Threher Maw mechanics kind of prevent you from doing it in my opinion. I may try later with another Shepard. The issue is the phase where a bunch of tentacles spawn and the Thresher Maw chases you until it gets too close to you and pops up or you destroy all the tentacles. (This can happen multiple times in a fight). In that case, you would need to stick close to the Mako so you can survive, or you would probably need to be Soldier or Infiltrator with Immunity. Sounds like it would be more doable in classic ME1. Still a tough task though.

Good to know I'm not going crazy in my old age. Question; I got used to scanning all the things in ME1 and 2. In ME3, you don't appear to scan individual planets, you just send out a ping from the Normandy while zooming around. Problem is, that can attract "Reapers, ah yes", apparently. I don't see anywhere to spend resources on research projects like before, so is there any meaningful benefit to be gained from the resources and the associated risk of "Reapers"? It adds to your overall military strength to find stuff on these planets whether it be artifacts, ships, or scientists which you can track in the war room. This can affect what endings are available to you at the end of the game. Also you can get intel from certain things like wrecked ships or stations that can be used for bonuses such as shields, weapon damage, power damage or recharge time, and store discounts. Get enough of these little bonuses and they add up. So yeah it is worth it to try to ping stuff to find in these star systems even if it isn't the most exciting part of the game.

Well so far, I have everyone recruited but Thane (and Legion). Getting started on the loyalty missions and have all of team DLC and team Cerberus loyal. Going to pick up Thane and hit the Collector ship and then focus on the rest of the loyalty missions before I move on to my Pre SM DLC (Overlord and Firewalker).

I don't know how many times I have had something come up over the years or had someone try to yack my ear off when playing Mass Effect, a pause for both cutscenes and dialog sequences is needed bad.

I know I am holding down the fort for this thread right now and I don't expect anyone that recently finished the trilogy to start up again since burnout can happen but I am hoping someone else comes in so I am not the only one lol.

According to Traynor, Javik doesn't need a translator. Which suggests he understands all species languages. Likely due to his sensory ability to 'read' people. When Shepard touches him on Eden Prime Javik was able to read Shepard and gained an understanding of our language.

Picked up Grunt and Jack, and then stopped a Collector attack on Horizon and got yelled at by Kaidan. Also did a few N7 missions. BTW adepts are squishy.
