Not that they're hard to miss.
Decent progress this morning!
Recruited Garrus who I do like a lot. He has a great voice. He then put me on the track to find Wrex so I now have a Turian and a Krogan on my team :D. After quite a bit of dilly-dallying, I decided on Ashley and Wrex as I thought I'd opt for a balanced team as opposed to the characters I actually like.
Fist never stood a chance. I've been getting some practice in with the pistol and I managed to clear out Chora's Den with little fuss. I wasn't impressed with Wrex executing Fist without asking. He hasn't made a great first impression on me so far.
We then took out an assassin and were introduced to Tali. Don't know what to make of her yet. She's definitely a badass but she seems a bit cold. I quite liked the story of her pilgrimage though. Plus, she had the evidence to expose Saren.
I completed Xeltan's side quest now I just need to head over to the Asari consort to complete that one. God knows where the rest of the Keepers are... it feels like I've scanned a thousand of the smurfers.
My final action was to decide on a new team. It's weird how I've changed about certain members. After an initial infatuation with Ashley I've definitely cooled towards her. She's just a bit meh... I prefer the bantz with Kaidan. I ended up picking Garrus and Kaidan. It's a pretty unbalanced team as Garrus and Shepard have the same set of skills. As long as I mix up which abilities I increase for them it should still be pretty balanced, I reckon.
EDIT: I'm a Spectre now :D
Yes! Kaidan is the best!
Also garrus is the best. I played infiltrator and still had him around cause he's a great character!
There are soooo many keepers. It takes me a really long time to get them all.
Have you checked the docks just up past your ship for a keeper? There's 3-4 in the presidium as well, especially off to the sides where you wouldn't normally go.
Ashley and Wrex was my team the first time I played through the game so I was excited, but then you changed it :( I like Garrus a little more in the other games than this one. He's alright, but choosing between him and Wrex I just like Wrex better. Sure, he just went in and shot the guy, but you knew he was a merc hired to do just that :p I've never liked anything about Kaidan. I like talking to Tali, but she's rarely on my team.
Onward, to space!
I actually had Wrex and Garrus. Lizard-like men for the win!
You're getting along at a much faster pace then I would have thought, Bubba. I can't believe you're a Spectre already! I actually started replaying Mass Effect myself early last week, so this thread really couldn't have come at a better time. Looking forward to finding out which of the main missions you do first!
I actually replayed the first two last week and am on the third one now, too :p
Yeah, I got the one just past the ship. Maybe I've finished it and I don't even know? The guy is no longer at the Citadel Tower so I can't even ask him.Quote:

Gonna try and squeeze a session in tonight or tomorrow. Heads up though, I'm gonna go and recruit my new team member straight away to see what they're like :DQuote:

Well, I had some extra time off because of Easter break. I also get exp faster from having beaten it before, and I don't have to read the dialogue because I know what it says and where to go already :p
I've completely forgotten what that looks like! You'll have to show me again once I've reached that part :DQuote:

The only problem with touring the Citadel is that I picked up another five bastard quests on my way round. I helped Jenna the barmaid in Chora's Den, found an optical disc for Reporter Wong (who I was hoping to hit on but no joy), stopped some weird floaty thing from preaching crap & helped a man recover the body of his wife from the authorities. He was really sweet actually.
My personal favourite was after talking to a guy called Jaleed, I think. He sent me over to Chorban Dallas Multipass and I actually found out that scanning all those Keepers was actually illegal (I probably should have guessed, tbh) and I then told him in no uncertain terms that I would no longer be scanning any Keepers for him. No way!
Chorban Dallas Multipass: "Bu... but! You've already scanned them all!"
Shepard: "Sshhhhh Multipass, sshhhhhh"
Oh, there was another one as well. I'm not sure it was a side quest though as it activated automatically when I got to the casino. Some dodgy guy was chucked out for using a machine to cheat. I told him I'd have a go with it and then got into a conversation with the casino owner. It gave me the option to turn the guy in. I'm not much of a gambler so I did! I felt a bit guilty when I went out and talked to him though as he'd been working on it for years. Then I came to my senses and thought "Smurf you man, don't cheat!"
I think I may have activated another sidequest when I examined a 'Suspicious Gambling Device' in the Flux Casino. There was no clear indication of what to do though. Maybe I have to come back to that once I've been out in space a bit, idk :shrug:
If you're playing a renegade Shepard then one day soon you will learn how amused I am at the phrase hitting on reporters.
I recall that she punches you back in ME 3.Quote:

Making me want to replay this series now. Think I'm gonna have to dust off Origin as the ME trilogy are literally the only games I have for it.
