How many can you actually lose before the game kills Shepard?

you need 2 to survive for shepard to live

I don't remember the sequence anymore, doesn't Shepard automatically have 2 as squadmates when rushing to the end? They don't count?

her face is just terrible

They can both die in the subsequent cutscene after killing the Reaper-Baby. Then you're running to the Normandy alone.

I get that they had to rush it but why not scrap the idea altogether if they couldn't make it reasonable?

It's the only sequence where unloyal Miranda can die.

Same. Just started last Friday after watching this exact fucking scene. And then suddenly there are daily threads on Yea Forums

I don't even

Well, you CAN murder her by making her a key role (i.e tech expert, fire team leader, distraction team leader) if she's unloyal, but who the fuck does this?
cough
You're basically 100% right though for anyone disloyal: Keep them in your team right up until the final fight and then swap them out and they'll make it.

Just ran through ME1 and ME2 myself. No particular reason beyond watching babylon V and having a space craving.

On ME3 now.

Should have been gangraped here.

You need the squad you take with you to fight the human Reaper to be alive, they have to be loyal to live, because Garrus thinking about Sidonis, or Thane worrying about Kolyat etc. kills them.

We all think alike.

I started a series completionist playthrough about a month ago. On 3 now, MIGHT even give Andromeda another try that there's been time to patch, but I doubt it.

Kys G*rmutt

>fem shep
you wanna be a girl in real life

>On ME3 now.
Oh, I'm sorry.

Fuck that, I want to be a fucking Krogan
You gotta do what you gotta do.

Kasumi this isn't how you stay off the grid.

Jacob grew on me on my latest playthrough; he's kind of like a ME1 Garrus that actually did something to escape the bureaucracy.

Kaidan, Jacob, and Chest McBulgeneck are all acceptable desu.

>unspecified mission we needed all the capable ones for for no good reason
Yeah, that shit infuriated me. Why not have a priority mission similar to Horizon with the added mechanics of commanding your entire team on the ground? This would explain why they abandoned the ship as well as introduce you to the mechanics used in the suicide mission.

I have this happen just before the Omega 4 Relay jump, so I can headcanon that they were going to scout the relay and discuss a plan.

But yeah, it was a dumb decision, could have had it happen on the base, Collectors hit the ship while you're advancing, force you to split up, or maybe you take like 6 or 8 team members and the rest you'll meet on the base.

Slabdick gruntcheese actually isn't a bad character, though I think it helps that Freddie prinze can actually apparently voice act.

Oh well, I guess they'll improve upon that idea in the next Mass Eff... oh wait. How Bioware managed to drop the ball so hard I will never understand.

>You need the squad you take with you to fight the human Reaper to be alive
Actually, you don't. As long as any two team members are alive, one of them will appear to pull Shepard up, even if they weren't in the squad for the final boss fight.

Wow.

So you REALLY have to be a blundering retard to have Shepard die.

ME3 did so many things right. I just wish the story and side-quests were better.
Would kill for a ME2 remake with ME3 gameplay.

Pretty much. You basically have to *try* to get Shepard killed. It's not likely to happen by accident.

The threads might just be standing out more now that ME is on your mind. It's like when you buy a car and then suddenly start noticing its model everywhere.

"It's beyond your understanding" is lazy writing, but if you're going to use it, you can never provide any kind of explanation.

They needed some reason to unshackle EDI, I guess.

The DLCs for ME3 are god-tier though.

Leviathan is OK, double down on the dumb Reaper logic, not sure whether giving a 100% origin of the Reapers was the best choice; missed opportunity to not habe your LI or squadmates talking to you when Leviathan is in your head.

Omega isn't very good, Aria's a mediocre character; would rather side with Petrovsky in exchange for him abandoning Cerberus, he's an honorable guy. Bray, a characterized batarian was nice.

Citadel is nice. Cringy at some points.

ME3 best DLC is multiplayer, way better than it had any right to be.

The same thing happened when I started playing dragon age, it's very spooky

>not playing a ROLE-PLAYING-GAME several times choosing different options every time

So has anyone done a max dead ME2 save playthrough with ME3? I'm guessing much of the content is cut how varied a playthrough would that be?

>I'm guessing much of the content is cut
From what I understand, no. What happens is that every dead major character gets a stand-in to serve their function in the plot. ME3 didn't give a shit about anything from the previous games. Just look at how the Reapers get here in six months with no ill effects, and the massive ass-pull that is the Crucible.

Yeah, okay. I was planning on doing a replay but I don't think it's worth it with that amazing Bioware storytelling.

>literally the exact same model as Miranda, minus the belt
>even has the camel toe
WTF was Bioware thinking?

My renegade femshep lost no one, kept the collector tech to herself, and fucked Liara. Comfy ending.

Reapers should have been dealt with after 1 and never directly appeared en masse. ONE reaper fought the entire Citadel and council fleet and almost won.

2 and 3 should have been about e0 dark matter destroying stars

Horny losers won't really mind.

EDI is thicker than Miranda

You're only saying that because of how bad the series turned out. If it didn't, you'd prefer the Reapers were the big bad then.

All I'm saying is: The wrong cheerleader died.

If they aren't loyal they die. I assume as long as one of them makes it you'll be fine.

You won't ever look like that tranny.

A man can dream. A MAN CAN DREAM:

I skipped all but two loyalty missions when I did thisIt made the game much better to play through because I didn't bother with boring filler missions for characters I don't care about

Thane always dies when I play, whether I do his mission or not he gets fucked

Spare or genocide rachni?

Stop sending him into the vents.

Doesn't matter lol
In 3 a new queen magically appears, there is a negligible difference in EMS points iirc

>man
That's right, you are one freak.

Who was it?

He dies in the ship, a fucking desk cuts him in half

You skipped heavy armor?

Not really. Vanguard wasn't the best thing in the multiplayer even when you were hosting (no lag) and since single player gives you more points to spend you can make very OP builds that easily overshadow vanguard. The difference is that vanguard works and is strong (and uniquely fun) from the first level whereas something like adept comes online only after you get to maybe level 15-20.

You actually lose EMS if you spare the cloned queen, because she turns against you. A rare moment of choices mattering.

Ashley of course

He is a faggot and an utterly useless character, nothing of value is lost

how come mass effect 1 and 2 cant be played on ps4?what ea doing?

Old games are L-A-M-E, user! The cool kids only want to play the newest stuff! You want to be one of the cool kids, don't you?

Ship upgrades. You'll need the heavy armor schematic you get from talking to Jacob.

Kiaden. I wanted him to go out as a hero and not some awkward guy in ME3.

You can probably get them + DLCs for fairly cheap on PC
I can't play ME3 without some modding.

Still better than trannie ashley

Thats actually not the case, because Mirada is different.
Miranda cannot be killed during the reaper ship fight, because she is not on the list of possible deaths for any missing upgrades.
With the vents, if you choose a disloyal or incompetent tech, the tech dies. Miranda cannot be selected as the tech. If you choose an incompetent or disloyal fireteam leader, its still the tech who dies.
For the microwave hallway, a disloyal or incompetent biotic will get one of your two squadmates killed, based on a list of priority, with miranda being the furthest down the list, making it impossible for her to be carried off.
For the second fireteam, an incompetent or disloyal leader will die UNLESS they are miranda, who will always survive
The crew escort will only die if they are disloyal, but im pretty sure miranda cannot be chosen for that.

This is because Miranda is the one who does all the talking throughout the suicide mission, so shes essentially story essential until you pick teams for holding the line and fighting the reaper fetus. Then the bitch can finally bite the dust.

Not that bad with mods

I liked Andromeda. I understand comfy mako exploring isn’t for everyone but that did it for me. And the krogan teammate was pretty cool.

Im still afraid to play ME3 after all these years. I played it on release and it was a clusterfuck, felt so empty because of it. Btw indoctrination theory 4 life.

The galaxy all died that day and I made out like a bandit while you are standing there reading this in my voice

First, up to 3 people die if you didn't upgrade the ship.
Then the vent specialist will die if they or the squad leader aren't capable or loyal
Then the person you send back with the crew will die if they aren't loyal, or the crew dies if you send no one
Then the biotic will get someone killed if they aren't capable or loyal
Then the second squad leader will die if they aren't capable or loyal
Then the people left at the gate will die if the defense score isn't high enough
Then the two you bring to the finale will die if not loyal

I will not
