Awkward pagetopper is awkward.

THE HIDDEN FIFTH ENDING: Everyone gets drunk and parties and gets high

Oh and Javik chokeslams Wrex through a table and Rodriguez bursts in constantly trying to show everyoen the husk head she tore off. I'd pay to see that ending

Also Shep gets drunk and runs around the apartment yelling STEEEEEEEEEVE at everyone.

"You sure?"

Shepard getting visited by every dead person's ghost up to that point. Including Nihlus/Marauder Shields, That Kid From ME 3's First Mission, Nassana Dantius and Saren.

Plus a ton of human ghosts cursed to shout "I will destroy you!" until the end of times.

Others shoutign "ENEMIES EVERYWHERE" and "GO GO GO" and "THIS HURTS YOU"

Started Citadel! :D It begins with a look around Anderson's apartment, then a rather odd not-quite stealth shooting bit which is more guerilla warfare since Shepard lacks armour but has a gun with a suppressor on it. Shame I had Adrenaline Rush and Flare though. AND WREX IS A SQUADMATE EEEEEE

So now I'm infiltrating a casino. I picked Javik for laughs. Since I actually heard him laugh! Because Shepard fell through a fish tank. "YOU ARE A TRAILBLAZER." I wish he did wear a tux though.

I hope I get that Lancer rifle I keep hearing about. ME 1 cooldown system ftw

I really like that first section. Sets the silly tone of the whole thing perfectly.

Would've really been something to see Javik in an "old-timey" 3-piece suit. Dagnabbit, Bioware!

Which eye would he put the monocle on?

Elegant Wrex is best. And James kinda looks like a sausage in that suit.

Javik would probably special order a special two way monocle. Or steal a batarian made one.

That may be the one mission in the trilogy where the best idea would be to bring Ash. She is hilariously over the top.

Well too bad, I let her fry on Virmire. Javik was funnier watching earnestly play his Prothean trade on every guard who appeared to be voiced by Travis Willingham. KING GAIUS OF AUJ OULE IS NOTHING BEFORE THE MIGHT OF THE PROTHEAN EMPIRE

So I finished the main story, killing off my clone, and I let Brooks get carted off to jail. I'll throw the party and play the minigames later. On the bigger upside, YAY I GOT THE ME 1 COOLDOWN LANCER RIFLE

I just watched all the guard distractions.

James and Tali get the least funny distractions, though I do like the guard asking James if he's had a stroke or concussion. Also, when James says he needs to look at the basement, "Is that code for something?" Also: "You're Bob's friend!" "How do you know Bob, exactly?"

Ashley's is actually pretty good. "Feel my muscle!" Then acting drunk. Then crying about a break-up. And finally flat-out hitting on the guard.

Garrus is great. He asks about a volus brothel. No, Garrus.

Wrex is obviously hilarious. I like him claiming to be a food inspector.

Kaidan gets some good ones, especially when he asks about getting back his money, and the guard asks him to stop crying. I also like him saying he accidentally used biotics on the roulette wheel. And, "Hazer the Laser? I almost didn't recognize you! You owe me money."

Liara was funny. Why did she use a Southern accent at one point? Why? I also like her guessing a guard's favourite fish, and the guard getting suspicious. And pretending to be with Sha'ira and scheduling a free appointment.

Javik was Javik.

Well who else would be perfect as a food inspector than the one who could probably eat pretty much anything and everything under the sun?

Wrex was hilarious in the Citadel DLC. In fact he was the best in 3 overall. His Character Development is definitely brilliantly done. He's so happy now!

Posting this here because it's on topic and some people that only visit this thread to talk about Mass Effect my not know.

Here's a fixed link.

Admittedly, hearing Commander Shepard say "This is Commander Shepard, signing off" sent a shiver down my spine, and honestly nearly brought me to tears.

Shepard says goodbye to the fanbase of Mass Effect.

Should be interesting, is it true Andromeda is focusing more on the exploration aspects of the Mass Effect Universe? I wouldn't mind either way, since by ME 3 I was completing so many side-quests that involved jumping to different star systems to collect items for delivery, I thought I had unofficially taken an in-game part-time job as an interstellar delivery guy...obtaining their next assignment by eavesdropping on random people.

It seems likely, and it's one I'll find interesting, even the first Mass Effect game had the galaxy pretty settled, and humanity, while newcomers, were still fairly well-established.

We're in new territory here.

I'm surprised they used Fem Shep for that trailer considering it was always male Shepard in all th marketing stuff. I wonder if they recorded a version with Mark Meer?

It's a change I for one welcome. Not that I dislike Mark Meer's work in any way, but it's good for Shep not to be always seen as a dude for marketing purposes.

If it is indeed the first part of the game then I am absolutely sure there will be two versions. Meer seems particularly fond of Shepard, I doubt BW and him would be unable to find some way to record a couple of lines.

It's Shepard giving a sendoff to one of the contingency programs during the Reaper War - a large colony ship using some sort of mass effect propulsion done by having one of the relays firing them at the Andromeda Galaxy at super-FTL which is why it takes 80 years to reach it instead of millions of years (though it could be Einsteinian time dilation and millions of years pass while it's only 80 inside the sleeper ship.)

Shepard is saying goodbye forever to the people in the ship, not knowing if the Milky Way will survive the Reaper War.

I remember reading in the Codex about a species of Virtual Aliens that are never encountered during the Reaper Trilogy. I wonder if we'll be encountering them or a species similar in this new one. Also, the Mako had better not suck in terms of handling.
