    Is this the only game series that has so many different decisions affecting an entire trilogy of games? I can'tr think of any others.

    Shepard will probably say something like "You fixed me, now fix them" to TIM

    TIM will probably be "selective" because the process is so time consuming and expensive and in the mean time whatever squad members you had left will spread out across the galaxy for a myriad of reasons. I expect only like a few of your current squad members to be on your team in ME3.

    I mean for sure Garrus and Legion will be in there

    Garrus is just too great

    Opening sequence is you holding a gun to one of TIM's scientists and you have to select who you bring back from the great beyond.

    Unless you saved everyone and then you're just spilling drinks and getting loud somewhere while Tali has the sniffles.

    Everybody in MY party made it out alive. And I saved my crew. And I buried a nuke in that terminator wannabe's face. And then I ran in slow motion, outrunning an explosion, and flipped TIM the bird for good measure. Shit son, I was the goddamn model of perfection.

    Yeah pretty much, the end sequence isn't as hard to do without people dying as everyone said when it first came out
    "We need a tech specialist"

    Okay, that's clearly Tali

    "We need a biotic specialist"

    Well shoot son I just so happen to have one by the name of Samara

    "We need somebody who has experience with leading squads"

    Take your fucking pick (spoiler Garrus is the right fucking pick)

    And from then on as long as you don't suck at Mass Effect 2 you'll be fine

    Yeah it's not hard to make everyone survive if you're not a moron. The only problem most people have is how squishy Mordin is, which is easily solved because you just take him with you or send him with the crew (that does kind of irritate me because it is the one time a team-mate dies and you havn't really made a bad decision)

    The first time I played through I just left him with the rest of my crew. Loyal squadmates who have battle experience, like Grunt, can rescue those who do not, like Mordin and Thane. I played through the Terminator sequence pretty quickly and everybody made it.
