Tentacle-head ? How dare you !!! JK

Yeah go for Liara. You can continue your romance with her in ME2 if you download that Shadow Broker dlc. Dating Ashley in ME1 as male Shepard turned out to be a waste in ME2.

Just make sure to stick to either Paragon or Renegade from the very beginning. When I played this, I was utterly confused & didnt know that Charm/Intimidate were the key to conversations.

What if I have a mix of both, paragon and renegade ?

Your character would be pretty ****ed up. He would be good at nothing.

Well that will screw up your story. I dont know but you might have encountered either some blue-colored (Charm = Paragon) or red-colored (Intimidate = renegade)conversations throughout your game.

At some point later in the story, it will be required that either your Charm or Intimidate points be higher in order to unlock those conversations. If those remain greyed out, you won't be able to for example: save someone, affect someone'e else decisions, etc. Also these decisions will have repercussions in ME2.

So that's why I suggested you to stick to either Paragon or Renegade from the very beginning.

Yeah, I usually go for charm blue colored ones.

 

[vickybat]

I had chosen liara-ti-soni in me1. As a result, she had a soft corner towards me in me2 as i had imported the savegames.

It was really funny when i did liara.

 

[varunb]

Yeah, I usually go for charm blue colored ones.

The more you chose those blue-colored conversations, the more your paragon level will get filled up in the menu. This will give you a head-start in ME2 when you will import your ME1 savegames.

^^ So playing ME 1 first and making decisions does make a difference??? You know because I have played ME2 but not ME1 so gonna get ME1 in 2 or 3 days and start all over again. Damn in ME2 on last mission I tried my best but wasn't able to save each and everyone of my crew and got the bad ending I mean it wasn't bad but it was neither good also. Will play the two games again.

If you don't carry over your decisions made in ME1, then ME2 will select the outcomes for some of the ME1's crucial moments which is most likely that the person didn't survive, etc.

I had made a walkthrough for ME2 last year which is somewhere in this thread. It will tell you how to save the entire crew in the suicide mission. Read it & if you still have some doubts, then you can message me on steam & I will help you out.

 

[vamsi_krishna]

Yes it will. Play ME1, complete it. Import ME1 character to ME2. You will carry forward all your decisions and will start as a Level 5 character.

So if I did some good or bad to someone then it will carry on in ME2 right. By the way how many characters of ME2 are in ME1???

If you don't carry over your decisions made in ME1, then ME2 will select the outcomes for some of the ME1's crucial moments which is most likely that the person didn't survive, etc.

Ew. That sucks I am not gonna be reason for someone's death so will play ME1.

Well its a goddamn big thread but still I am gonna find it. Good that you haven't posted much in this forum or it would be pain in the ass to find that particular post of yours. LOL. jss kiddin. You rocks continue on this forum.

@ varunb
Got your walkthrough. Nice one. I m gonna play ME1 then ME2 again and see the impacts of decisions.

 

[varunb]

Its a pain going through ME1 again when one realises the decisions will have impacts in ME2. You can always download someone else's savegames & I am sure that one of those savegames are bound to coincide with the decisions that you want to make in ME1. Here's a website that hosts a colelctions of savegames:

Home - Masseffectsaves.com

A word of advice: Install all the dlcs of ME2 released till now. Don't miss even a single dlc. Its like you are missing tons of important portions if you dont install them. Reply back if you want the links to those dlcs.

You know bro its not just about impacts on ME2. I wanna play ME1 to see who shephard was because I don't know as I haven't played that game yet and I wanna know through game.

Thanks mate but I already have all the dlc. I think they are 20 of them any extra you know about??

 

[Faun]

Encountered Benezia and freed the queen rachnai.

Encountered T. Soni too (Benezia's daughter).

Is it a good option to select T. Soni as a squadmate because of here biotic skills ?

 

[vamsi_krishna]

T'Soni was my romantic choice in second playthrough.

 

[Krow]

Ashley was mine I think.

I think she will come in handy against biotic foes. Always pick your squad mates according to the mission.

And you can romance her as your protagonist is female if you want to.

Yeah she is beautiful

How do I know which mission will require which skills ? I always choose Tali and Ashley.

 

[vamsi_krishna]

Read the codex pages. See the dominant race in that planet. And find out who is vulnerable to what.

 

[axes2t2]

Mine was also Ashley but I was not able to trigger the scene.
