Awesome job man! Can I also say I truly appreciate your "clean" let's play videos (no swearing and whatnot). It's refreshing and I commend you for it! For the Algorithm!
As you can see at 31:33 you're choosing Liara's power with the crosshair over your own face. She then deploys her power at the point your crosshair aimed at, rather than at an enemy. You may want to consider aiming at an enemy she should target instead. It seems like you're picking the power first and then aiming at a target, which is similar to pulling the trigger of a gun and then aiming at an enemy. You may want to aim first, _then_ use a power instead. Of course, when an enemy is behind cover bullets can't penetrate the cover, so naturally powers don't go through cover either. You'll need a clear line of sight to target an enemy.
I missed his office too and ran around for an hour before I found it my very first time, lol and yes, that first ERCS fight is unavoidable, you can save the 2 first guard with paragon, but the rest fight, I reloaded several times as I thought "they are just doing their job"
Fun Fact: The puzzle used to get the VI online again is called the Tower of Hanoi. The objective is to move the entire tower without putting a larger piece on top of a smaller piece. It is the most hated puzzle in gaming but pretty easy if you know the solution. Early BioWare designers seemed to have loved this puzzle because it is also in Knights of the Old Republic and you don’t get Omni-gel in that game. Have fun.
she should have told me! yeah...she would have, if you talked to Annoleyes and her at the bottom floor before running of the opposite direction 😀 and PLEASE, do yourself a favor I know you may not hurt for money per say, but don't reduce to omnigel something that has 2200 selling price when you have 40 items that are worth 50
I love seeing you play it your way. It makes things interesting when you don't go the way we do. It's a first playthrough, and most important? It's yours. The backseat gaming can be real with ME, so follow the advice you want. Let's get Benezia next episode 🤙
I'm loving your playthrough! Thank you for sharing it with us. Can't wait to see what you think as you head towards the end of this game and the others.
It's so interesting - when these games first came out, Gianna Parasini was almost universally popular and often brought up as one of the favourite small sidequest NPCs. You can still see this show up in fan communities when people talk about who they wish would return in future installments, etc - a lot of people still feel very fond of her even after all this time. But I've been watching a couple "first time" playthroughts of Mass Effect lately, and so far everyone brushes her off/feels rubbed the wrong way by her and doesn't help her (and in one case even took glee in screwing her over). So far, you're the only one to actually recognize the point she was making and backtrack/reload to help her after all, but even you still felt she had bad vibes at first. I wonder if character design norms have shifted enough that while she read as snarky/cool/fun back then, now it makes her come off as weird/rude and suspicious. Obviously, my data set of three whole people is really small, it was just so funny because I keep expecting people to like her and everyone just seems so put off by her instead!
Yeah, I've been waiting for a new episode in your Mass Effect playthrough! I'm so excited to watch it, you gotta be my favorite newcomer player I've seen so far! And yes, play however you want it to make it fun and special to yourself! If you want or don't want to take our suggestions and tips, that's your choice and we'll respect and stand by you! (But, whenever you finish the trilogy and return for a replay in the future, i recommend the channels Big Dan Gaming and MrHulten for guides and secrets! )
I don't think you need to tell people you're one of the good ones. A Spectre on Noveria is like a police officer walking around in a crime syndicate. They don't care about you being good, they just don't want to get arrested when everything they do is illegal. On Noveria they only tolerate you because the board tells them to, otherwise they'd have employed their entire security detail to take you out. Besides, you've only encountered two Spectres so far; Nihlus and Saren. I don't think that provides a good idea of whether most Spectres are good or bad people.
I know folks have said it, stop converting to omnigell....you can carry 200 items! Sell them! You will need to upgrade weapons and armor the whole game.
Im not sure if you have that one setting on that lets companuons use there abilities automaticly rather then strictly having you manually have to have them use it
Kotor 2 with the mega fan patch(Sith Lords Restored Content Mod) that added so much scrapped content is the way to go, KoToR one is great, but in 2 you have more choices with companions as well....but dragon age origin might edge out KoToR
YES finally someone who finds Kaidan's back- story more interesting (since hes the only child) than Willams. Willams rubs me the wrong way with that attitude of hers toward aliens. 🙄
Stop converting to omnigell and sell your stuff. Upgrading is crucial on weapons armor and squad. Plus, try to follow what folks are telling you. You ran off in the wrong direction away from the questline you came for. Thats just dim and something a noob would do, you know better.
Hey lemme play my own way! If I make a mistake, lemme regret it later, that's part of the process! If I go the opposite way, that's because I likely wanna check an alternate route out first! I don't always say that verbally, but it doesn't matter. I appreciate the desire to help, but me playing my own way and even making mistakes does not make me dim! If you want things done a specific way, then boot the game up yourself!
The ultimate disrespect. Not even talking to Anoleis before getting him arrested. Love to see it.

For the Algorithm!
Poor Gianna Parasini! How could you possibly have doubted her? 😉
Lesson of the day: talk to everyone before making a decision!

I'm just happy to see another mass effect fan. Let me start from the beginning

I always max Wrex Shotgun and battlemaster first, but just my preference

hey man love ur vids, i cant wait for u to get to ME 2 and ME 3
Mass Effect, Fallout and Kotor are some of my absolute favorite game series. You play those on the channel and I'll be around for a long time.

omg what an adorable chaos 😂 thank you for uploading!

Mako Binos is not the same as zoom lol, zoom does indeed ZOOM

New Mass Effect video? I guess life has meaning again
Definitely stick with the squad you enjoy. You don't get another first playthrough. Just make sure you can decrypt and hack!
31:35 you aimed singularity at yourself. You need to aim it at the enemy. Like you would be aiming with your gun.

I hope you check out the codexes. Maybe listen to them while editing or something
THX
Lol, that fight is unavoidable if you do the synthetic mission irrc
Stop running everywhere, you run past stuff you should interact with constantly 😂
YES finally someone who finds Kaidan's back- story more interesting (since hes the only child) than Willams. Willams rubs me the wrong way with that attitude of hers toward aliens. 🙄
totally agree. kaidan's a bit of a mess inside, which makes him more relatable. also his backstory just adds to his credibility, so I'm sold.
Keep ignoring advice about questlines and you will regret it in later games.
Let the man play how he wants to play. Backseating is annoying. Spoiling is even worse.
