Mass Effect 3

I'm about to launch the reaper IFF mission in ME2 in my "one year anniversary" game.

Renegade female Shep (with soft spots for Tali and Liara). Trying to save all the crew this time.

I have really enjoyed playing through again. Love this trilogy and will miss Shepherd greatly.

Who did you lose? Was it due to loyalty or choosing characters that weren't quite fit for their roles (using Jacob as the biotic shield rather than Jack or Samara)?

First time I played the suicide mission through I lost Legion, Zaeed, and Garrus and dog cussed myself mercilessly.

Oh, I'm talking about the nobodies that man the ship. I didn't realize that jacking around with extra stuff before the suicide mission prevented me from saving Ensign Chambers and etc.

I made it through the suicide mission unscathed (got lucky in assigning people the right roles).

Oh, and I'm romancing Liara this time around. Girl on blue girl action.

Legion is awesome. Does a nice job of putting a sentient face on the robots.

I made it to a second round of interviews as a writer with Bioware about 5 years ago. That would have been a load of fun.

I didn't know that you wrote. I've thought about applying there, but given that I don't have the technical credentials (no MFA in creative writing and I've never attempted to send off creative works for publication) I figured it would go nowhere, even though I have an advanced degree in English.

Edit: I also can't *not* romance Liara. Romanced Ashley on the first playthrough, but she was a little too much of a culture warrior for my tastes. Besides, I love Liara's bookish shyness in the beginning and her development from girl to woman (which you can even notice in the pitch of her voice from 1 to 3).
