You know, with all of the missions that Shepard and Company go on throughout the Mass Effect series, you’d think that picking just one as your favorite would be a daunting, near impossible task. For me, however, this was not the case. Of course, I did decide that I was going to choose one mission from each

If you look at the statistics from Mass Effect 3, apparently only 35.5% of players took the renegade route, while a whopping 64.5% chose paragon. I was a little surprised at this result, considering how many videos there are out there showing renegade actions, but I suppose it makes a certain kind of sense, given that

Like … okay, I know there are people that like this class, and I get it. Pew pew explodey grenades and shit. And admittedly, ME3‘s multiplayer mode has excellent options (just play a few rounds with the batarian and get back to me). But come on, why would you choose soldier in the main game?

Apparently, I am in the extreme minority here, as shown by statistics from 2013. While I found the engineer class to be the most fun to plan, only 5% of players agreed with me. Now, this could have changed over the course of the last seven years, but I highly doubt it. I’m not really

You know when you see couples on screen and they have no romantic chemistry whatsoever? Like, the actors themselves are fine, even superb in any other case, but when they’re supposed to be involved with each other, you can literally not figure out what brought them together besides the script? Yeah, that’s how I feel

This is more of a sidebar kind of thing, but here we go: So romance. I’m a fan, especially in Mass Effect. Well, any Bioware title, honestly – they really know how to make a cast of characters click, and when you add a bit of sexytimes to it? Well, let’s just say that the

I did not realize how attached to a romance with Garrus Vakarian I was until he showed up on Menae in Mass Effect 3 and I suddenly started bouncing up and down like a giddy school girl. I knew that he was my favorite romance option of ME2, but I just didn’t have the same

There is just something so flipping adorable about people fumbling around, unsure of themselves, as they try to reveal to you that they like you more than Just Friends, especially if they feel like they’ve been getting signals from you. Is it just their hopeful imagination? Or … is there something between you two? Like

This one actually pains me because Robin Sachs is one of my favorite actors (RIP, sir), but Zaeed Massani is just … somehow boring. And he shouldn’t be. He founded the Blue Suns, for god’s sake. He has a favorite gun named Jessie. He looks like he’s seen some shit and even has a bionic

Every Christmas after the release of Mass Effect 2, I have asked for a Grunt plushie. Why? Because he is my absolute favorite character in the entire trilogy. His little evil cackle brings me joy, and his pure krogan-ness is delightful. One of my favorite interactions between him and Shep is after the Rite of
