Live Blogs The Adventure of Failure Shepard or How Not to Play the Mass Effect Trilogy

For the past few months, I have been planning to do a playthrough of the Mass Effect Trilogy where I make the dumbest decisions possible. I have decided to share this experience with you all.

This liveblog will chronicle the adventure of Lieutenant Commander Failure Shepard, better known as FailShep. Young Failure was born on the Human colony of Midnoir, where he lived until it was attacked by evil batarian pirates, who killed everyone he ever knew. FailShep was only sixteen at the time.

Shortly after, FailShep enlisted in the Alliance Military, where his squad was killed by Thresher Maws. FailShep's escape of the Maws made him a legend among the Alliance.

tldr; Failure Shepard is male, a Colonist and a Sole Survivor. Because this playthrough is going to be somewhat minimalist in nature, I'm playing as a Soldier and on the lowest difficulty settings.

Well, here we go. We've seen our fair share of tragedies, most made hilarious due to the blatant disregard of common sense that led to them, as well as some victories. Mostly the accidental, plot-mandated kind of victories. But the final mission has begun, and it seems that this liveblog will soon be completed. It's been a blast to follow along with you, Irrose, and I wish you the best of luck for these final battles.

Final push should have Liara and James, given EDI's own projected mortality.

@Endark: Thank you.

@Peteman: That's what I did.
