HI!!!!! I missed you guys :) This episode was so much fun to dive back into, I absolutely loved getting immersed in Illium and hearing all the side convos + overhead speakers! There's so much life in this game and I just love that. I hope y'all have fun as I dust off the Let's Play part of my brain!! P.S. I googled entrepot and how I say it is 10000% NOT how it's pronounced LOL 🤣
Welcome back. I've been watching a few different people playing Mass Effect for the first time but I will admit yours is probably at the top of my list just due to your level of intrigue with everything. I'm absolutely looking forward to you meeting Thane as well.
Welcome back Ren! BioWare did such a good job with Illium,the atmosphere,the throwbacks to ME1 and the missions too are all pretty awesome. i appreciate you took the time just to look around and "feel" the city instead of just running trough missions. I still can't wait for the Thane mission tough. In the next episode,I'm sure of it. I feel it in my bones. :D
Hi, Ren! Hi, Cat! Ah, Mass Effect... "Comfort food" for the soul in stressful times. The galaxy map music (among others and other aspects of the game) still has a warm, calming effect on me after all those years of playing and watching others play. :)
The music has 100% made its way onto my video game soundtracks playlist i love it so much 😍 and i love when video games can have that heart effect on us :)
These weeks have felt like forever 😄 When I saw this vid today I thought I'd forgotten you, and missed several vids so I had to check 🤣 Glad that wasn't the case. So happy to have you back 🥳
Hey, wondered where you disappeared to. Holiday season can certainly be stressful. Moving is definitely stressful. Sounds like you had a one-two punch of stress. I hope things worked out well. Glad to have you back and to hear your Mass Effect commentary. You're going to have to redouble your efforts now. Still have ME3 to get to 😜
Hey Ren! Glad to see you back into it! An 'entrepot' is like a trading post or a warehouse of goods, services and materials. Illium is the embodiment of an entrepot in every aspect. Hope that helps. I'm pretty old, so those stupid words have stuck over time... I haven't started watching the playthrough yet, but I hope that you meet Conrad Verner here. He's a bit of an ass, but he has a good heart. You will notice that later. No spoilers here! Edit: :sad face:
Hello my friend I missed you too I hope you enjoyed your long vacation cannot wait for you and all of us to get back into this game again have fun☺️☺️🌹🌹
You know both her daughters the first mentioned is the first asari you meet in m1 when you leave udinas office and go doqnstairs their was an asari at a desk who stated its alot of work to monotore millions of people thats her first daughter nice girl not much diaglog in game second was the comsorts greeter who told u to come back in a few months to talk to the consort
Conrad's encounter is famous for being bugged. He will behave as if you renegaded him in Mass Effect 1, even though you didn't. There's a mod that fixes this issue, so that he's more polite when talking to Shepard if you were nice to him in Mass Effect 1.
27:50 Asari having an umbilical cord as well as breasts would imply that they are mammals and give birth to and breastfeed their children. Quarians too.
YES!! with big inspiration from parthenogenesis only they (asari) actually have another partner for the gene aspect of reproduction. with quarians i have so many questions about the need for sterile environments with reproduction. i'm gonna be thinking about this all day LOL
23:42 - looks like that asari lost an opportunity to make a sale due to her classism. Instead of calling the Volus "Loser!", she should have kept him interested. He'd have found a way to scrounge up the money later.
Go back and talk to Liara again and ask her how she is. There's a second part to the hacking mission you did. That was a base game mission for Liara that was in there before the Lair of The Shadow Broker DLC. You will get even more info about what she's been up to. Also, I recommend taking Jack to do Miranda's loyalty mission. Take Mordin, and Garrus or Grunt I believe are the best to get Thane. I think Garrus & Kasumi or Miranda are good for Samara. I'm trying to remember the best ones for dialogue on those missions.
No N7 t-shirt? But at least we can see your cat again! :) I'm currently doing a second ME2LE playthrough in the last 6 months (this time as a renagade femshep). Great game... great game... BTW I think you missed Baria Frontier storefront (terminal) right by the Erynia. It sells very useful item required to access all the assignments (it's even mentioned by the two Asari standing there). And don't select "Get the Shadow Broker" option until you explored all the other possible dialog options/missions Liara has for you - originally it was added as DLC hence people who played it probably finished all the other assignments, but selecting it basically makes them no longer available (I think that's mostly is a problem with the terminal scanning assignment which you did, but I don't quite remember if that's the only one affected). Also happy birthday to you!
LOL it was in the wash 😂 it will make an appearance again!! Renegade femshep has got to be super fun!! As for the storefront, don’t worry i went back and got everything right before i recorded the next episode :) thank you so much!! 💓
@@renwraiths to be honest I feel pretty bad for all the characters my renegade femshep (or renfemshep for short ;D ) meets - she's not exclusively renegade to bad people - she's renegade to everybody including Liara and Tali... in ME1 she already killed Wrex and sent Ashley on a guilt trip right before leaving her with the bomb... I have a strong feeling that at least half of the crew won't survive ME2 ;)
I love asari families seing the salarian with his daughter or seing blue rose with her krogan bf Asari are the very beacon of love knowing no bounds no matter where u come from

It's been a long wait but it is worth it to watch you play this game and enjoy it 🥰
Entrepot is actually the French word for 'warehouse', and I've never heard it used anywhere else in English.
I forgot to mention it's my birthday today 🎉🥳🥳
@@johnb7627 omg happy belated birthday!!! I hope you had the best day 🎉🤩🎈🎁
@@renwraiths thank you so much ☺️☺️
gotta say. we got to the end of the episode and I was like "what? noo! that was too short!". This was a really good one. Illum is a really fun area.

Your bones might be onto something!! 😉
Welcome back! You made some meme-worthy faces during this one!
LOL i was realizing that while editing 😆

You welcome back!! Also happy late birthday!
Thank you!! :)
So happy to see you posting again! I hope you had a good holiday.
Thank you Greg it was really lovely! I hope your end of (and start of!) the year have been treating you well 😊
Before you do the Shadow Broker mission, Liara gives you another small but interesting quest that is a nice precursor to the Shadow Broker misssion.
I would like to sound like Janice from the tv show called "Friends" - "O... My... God...". Finally ;D
Better late than never right? 😉
Hello, good to see you back.
Happy to be back!!
Yeeeey finally a new video of you! I’ve missed your gameplay videos sooo much 🥰
This made me smile so much omg 🥰
Hello my friend I missed you too I hope you enjoyed your long vacation cannot wait for you and all of us to get back into this game again have fun☺️☺️🌹🌹
I'm so happy to be back!! I've been missin the channel so much!

Looks like you found the "Friend zoned turian" hehe! I think thaat entire conversation was inserted by the devs to troll the Talistans!!
That conversation cracked me up!! I love the devs humour and how they sprinkle in all these lil convos :)
Haha "omg Shep, get off the table!"
😂😂😂

More incentive to get ME on PC!!
In ME3 he apologizes for making the accusation.
BTW Asari aren't proud of other Asari being pureblood. It's pretty much a derogatory term!
Yeah, it's a slur. Asari are proud of being asari, but there are some things associated with being dual-parent asari that makes it culturally taboo.
Ahhh I miss my fave gamer😭😭 glad to have you back rennn!!!😊
i miss you too!!!!!!! v happy to be back in action 😌
Matriarch Aethyta: still one of my favourite NPCs
I love her and want more of her!
27:50 Asari having an umbilical cord as well as breasts would imply that they are mammals and give birth to and breastfeed their children. Quarians too.
YES!! with big inspiration from parthenogenesis only they (asari) actually have another partner for the gene aspect of reproduction. with quarians i have so many questions about the need for sterile environments with reproduction. i'm gonna be thinking about this all day LOL
Wren: "I, too, like to nail asari." Cat: "Mmmm, hair."
she HONGEY

Hi ren I can’t wait for more loyalty missions
Me neither :)
I love asari families seing the salarian with his daughter or seing blue rose with her krogan bf Asari are the very beacon of love knowing no bounds no matter where u come from
I LOVE the way you described that, they really are 💛💛💛
REN🙂🙃🙂🙃Welcome back!!!!
We missed you🤩
THANK YOU TEX i’m so happy to be back 🥹🥹🥹💛
At 7:56, yes hard agree, but I think you're also describing most nonprofessional jobs under capitalism 😅
You’re not wrong!! 👀

Welcome back, Renn! Hope some of the stress has passed, your crew is happy to have you back!
