SHEPARD fights his way to the BEACON and defuses a couple of BOMBS by LOOKING AT THEM INTENTLY. LMAO.

An entertaining read. I certainly admire the effort.

You missed one of the cardinal rules for writers in the Mass Effect universe, however. That is “any character we want the player to like has to bad mouth the government at every possible opportunity.” What an oh-so-subtle commentary there, BioWare. That shit got boring in a hurry, especially since there were so few in-game cases of government incompetence to justify this Don’t care about my dreams? Gov’t suxx! I think it just got ramped up in the sequel.

Hey there! Well done. A hilarious read with wonderful observations and piss-takings! I liked your MW2 script a little better, but so did I the game. ME was a little stale and repetitive for me. Too much dialogue and nowhere leading “favours”. But this was a fun way of remembering it all again in a plain and unconvoluted manner.

Overall a pretty funny description. A few bits are a bit weak, it could use some editing, but I found the vast majority of it hilarious. Also shame on you for neglecting the comedy goldmine which is the reporter falcon punch.

Ha, that was great. Yeah it was so awkward when that Asari hooker chick rubs up against your face. I’m all, “This is supposed to entice my character?”

But I did think it was adequately explained was the Reapers returned. So they could come and see what developed over 50,000 years that they might assimilate (I know, I know, Borg) and consume?

And I even just assumed that with humans being on Earth at the time, and possibly other intelligent species, that if they were not advanced enough for the Reapers to really gain anything from harvesting them, that they would spare them that particular cycle and be checking on them after another 50,000 years.

Anyway, great read. Though I always played with the female Shepherd.

Hilarious script! Looking forward to your ME2 stuff, and I’m wondering if you would put some of the stuff you cut out as outtakes or something?
