The Mass Effect games have a boatload of unique, rare and hidden dialogue that only becomes available if you make specific choices. To celebrate N7 Day, I decided to put together a list of my favorite secrets and rare dialogue from the Mass Effect Trilogy. - Hry
Start playing Persona 5 Tactica now i.try.games/persona-5-tactica/rj19f4
9:36 I can’t believe those lazy bastards at BioWare didn’t let us recruit Tali, Thane, Samara & Legion early in the Mass Effect Legendary Edition on PS4 & PS5, even though those console systems don’t have the data and storage limits that the XBox 360 Game Disc had!
And narratively speaking it’s absolutely ridiculous that during Mordin’s Recruitment Mission they act like fully sealed environmental suits don’t exist. Garrus & Grunt can just put on their helmets and be perfectly protected from germs, toxins, parasites and whatever else!
@@endershepard7117have you suffered a recent brain trauma?
No.
@Bigdan, can you bring Legion to meet the human council?
Bringing Legion to Tali's trial is one of my favorite moments in the series
It's my personal requirement to do that mission. Peace negotiations need to start from somewhere. Besides, love Legion's insights on that mission.
How do you clear Tali's name of charges of bringing active Geth onto the Flotilla? Bring an active Geth aboard the Flotilla!
Geth do not intentionally infiltrate.
@@MandalorianRevanto be fair, Shepard doing something isn’t evidence of Tali doing it so can’t be evidence in the trial
@@MandalorianRevanYou have to rally the support of the crowd. Paragon and renegade options won't work.
One of my favorite pieces of unique dialogue is with Khalisah in ME2. If you decided to save the Destiny Ascension in ME1, you can choose a Paragon dialogue option where Shepard names off each Alliance ship that was sacrificed during that mission. Pretty cool stuff and probably my favorite piece in the whole series.
One of my favorite Paragon moments. Too bad, the Renegade option doesn't change, regardless you saved or sacrificed the Council.
And she just stands there in shock!
Oof i shouldn’t have chosen the renegade option
Jack's comment about Mordin is touching - it really shows how far she's come as a person, that she could care about a person she only knew for such a brief period of time. Makes me wish that ME2 had the crew conversations that ME3 had. It really makes the ship feel more alive, like things are going on when you're not paying attention.
And she's damn right about Mordin having useful sex advice. Some of his lines are hilarious.
"He had some wicked sex advice." Very touching.
@@Fragenzeichenplatte
I know it touches me deeply.
Funny. I thought it's really reversed. ME2 feels, to me, much more alive, because the crew (for example in Crew Quarters or the Mess Hall) actually talk to each other (not the Squadmates, tho). ME 3 had the Squadmates SOMETIMES (but not nearly as much as they should have) talking to each other, but not the crew. They just sit there. Silently. Staring. Freaked me out.
@@rendigmor
Of course they'll stare... Indoctrination is real...

Wrex's confrontation after you have manipulated him for so long is my favorite.
The scene happens out of nowhere when you were just boarding Normandy on a routine visit to citadel unrelated to any main quest.
He just charges at you and starts shouting at the fact that you have been lying (killing Mordin, responsible for ensuring the genophage stays uncured and using the remainder of the Krogan army as Cannon fodder).
They give you a dialog check to manipulate him further so that you can talk your way out of the situation. But this is one of the few times in the game where that option is there to just fool the player into thinking that you are going to talk your way out of this. And Wrex tells you so! (Also this happens much later in the game when you think you have gotten away with screwing his race over)
You are forced to shoot him down and in the news later you will watch "a crazy Krogan got shot down". And people assume it's just a Krogan thing to do to get mad over nothing and end up dying for it.
Only Garrus, confronts you on it. And Shepard says nothing. And then Garrus says "...this damn war".
(My only renegade playthrough of the trilogy and it was heartbreaking through and through! You can become so evil in this game it's crazy!)
If Wrex is not alive and you sabotage the cure (which I always do), Garrus is the only one you can tell about later. He says something along the lines: "I should thank you. But remind me never to play poker with you."
@@SrConstantinopla I sabotage it too. But Wrex and Eve are alive, forcing me to confront him. And you know what ? Let it come !
The plan is to force Rachni and Krogans co-existance. But Krogans require conditioning to be able to even accept the idea. Eve and Wrex are the only ones who can provide for that. Even before that plan, I needed them alive to encourage Krogan evolution.
It's like the xaman said. They destroy each other each time to grow superior. This clearly must happen.
But I never try to talk my way of the situation.
Oh yeah! Homeboy forgot that one while making this video. Unfortunately Wrex is done dirty in cutscenes on Virmire in ME1 and the Citadel in ME3. He goes out like a b!tch both times. Even though he’s a powerful biotic. Krogan Battlemaster and seasoned space mercenary!
N7 Spectre Commander Shepard & Urdnot Wrex deserved to have an Epic & Visceral Combat Duel like Shepard & Liara had with the Yahg Shadow Broker in the Lair of the Shadow Broker DLC!
This is why Paragade is better than pure Paragon/Renegade. You get to keep people alive without being a full time goody-two-shoes boyscout, while still being a maverick and bullying fools who think they can take you without being a full time d*ck to your team for no reason. You get variety.
I love the Khaleesa moment in ME3, never felt the need to punch a useless reporter but it felt like the Shepard thing to do to reassure her which is what I wanted to do in ME1 and 2
I was always punching her when playing as FemShep (being a male myself) or an asshole Renegade, otherwise it just didn't feel right. She was just doing her job and being annoying.
I like to embarrass her on camera by punching her with my words.
@@FC-ho9hw I got the LE and I'm on my first playthrough right now, but quite a few things have been spoiled for me over the years (which is why I'm only now getting to it). The fact that you can punch the reporter and everyone wants to it even as a Paragon was one of them. So, when she talked to me, I was waiting for the moment where she got so outrageous that even my goody two-shoes Shepard would feel the need to shut her up. It never came. Sure, she's a gotcha journalist and if I would play a Renegade she'd catch them hands, but I honestly don't see how this is a "can't resist to do it" moment.
@@DerMoerpler Yep. I always play as me, kinda... Even as a Renegade, there are simply some choices I just wouldn't do (you'll see), but I'm just mostly more of an asshole about those that I pick, than mostly on a Paragon run. I'm something in between. I think that most people are anyway (I'm never 100% good or bad when playing actual RPGs, just lean more towards the other). My latest playthrough is as a mostly male Renegade, but I still didn't deck her, for instance.... I did it only once as a FemShep, when it originally came out (ME 1 2007, 2008 for me and the other games as they came out) and I haven't watched CZcams videos that much at the time. There are some instances when I've straight up ended somebody, because it felt very justified, however... ;) If I want to see different options, there are always people like Big Dan, Mr. Hulthen, etc. :D
You can't tell me Mordin isn't one of the best characters of the whole series when even Jack was sad to hear that he died. The absolute GOAT
He also has a cameo in Andromeda. Ryder can get high on a mushroom on Kadara and he/she hallucinates him
Even Aria regrets that he died.
18:20 Nice that Shepard remembers Nihlus. You have to remember Nihlus put their name down as a Spectre candidate.
yes but he killed innocents at the very least once according to samara so he didn’t do that from the goodness of his heart
There's one other hidden conversation in ME1:
After Saren kills Nihilus and you kill the Geth squad near the train station, take a right and you'll see a building that you can unlock with decryption. That building will have three "farmers", though they're actually smugglers, and while I won't go into specifics, I will say that they're related to Powell, if you talk to them before Powell, you'll get unique dialogue, and you should max out Charm or Intimidate as your first skill upgrades
For me it wasn't even a secret dialogue. I always look around before doing the main task. Now I’m playing the first mass effect and first I explore the entire map on the planet (anomalies, debris, turian corpses) and only then do the mission goal on each planet.
@@EdgAr4839
That's how I play too 😂😂
You only need 2 points in either charm or intimidate
THERS A GETH RIGHT BEHIND YOU 😂😂😂 always kills me. Like the enemy would just chill and sit with us
More importantly he does introductions first before saying it lmao
Engineer Shepard has a paragon interrupt during the reactor scene that leads to Aria having unique dialogue in the Omega dlc when Shepard manages to save Aria n Nyreen and Omega citizens on time.
18:03 "yeah, ash, sorry all your friends died. I watched one guy I'd known for eight minutes get killed in the most hilarious way possible and then left his corpse to rot."
Oh man that line when abandoning Zaeed is so dark. The voice actor's delivery just sounds so dead cold even for renegade shep.
Worst outcome choice in the game.
fr, ive only ever heard those lines spoken through other peoples playthroughs or vids like this, and it makes me sad to hear every time
It's not a 'True Renegade' option too.
You HAVE to have picked the giant "I'm a Paragon" option to get this line. Which is curious.
I love that paragon options on these missions include punching Zaeed and yelling at him all the time
I'm on my 19th playthrough. No exaggeration. I'm still running across new dialogue. It's part of the reason I keep playing.
Same!
same here everytime i replay i hear more and more dialogue i never heard it is crazy
@@JacenVampyr Which is rather impressive when you think about it. Especially when I rarely do playthroughs with the most cursed choices like the one involving Wrex on Virmire.
Very hard trilogy to match. It was released at the perfect time & place.
Wonderful experience & memories.
Honestly I’m about the same. And then bought the legendary edition. Played all the way through completed every side mission then got to the elusive man’s base. Then stopped… because I didn’t want it to end again. It gets me every time I do the citizen dlc and at the end Shepard says the best.. finally finishing it lol
"You're too rude to be an illusion." Lol that was so funny. I actually got a couple of these on my first play through because I had no idea what order to do anything in. They were interesting surprises.
I didn't think NOT punching al-Jilani was "rare".😂
It seems so comically overboard, my Sheps have never canonically done it.
It's definitely a case of a meme overshadowing other options
According to Biowares stats only 32% of playthroughs didn't punch her once while 68% did in at least one game. Not sure if that counts as rare but almost 3/4 of people would have never seen it.
Honestly in 1&2 it's a bit overboard to punch her but in 3 it's 100% justified. She spent the last 2 and a half years trying to slander Shepard, the Alliance, and the Council, in biased interviews that can only be described as trying to drum up drama and pander to Terra Firma or Cerberus type people for clicks and Shepard is at the end of a what is probably the longest day of his life and doesn't need to put up with more of her division stoking bullshit in the middle of a war. She's basically the CNN of the Mass Effect universe.
What can I say, everyone loves punching her, even krogan
I think most people do it accidently since they're conditioned to hit interrupts when they pop up. Good mechanic tying it to a morality system, mimics the urge to fight impulses quite well.
I think another rare dialogue moment is the timing of when Javik is reading your thoughts on the Normandy after you recruit him, I think during one of my playthroughs I recruited him a bit later on then usual and the dialogue during that moment was different then usual since I usually get him early on.
My old Paragon MaleShep got one of those, since I recruited Javik after the Cerberus Attack and I brought Ashley to Eden Prime. After Javik reads Shepard's thoughts, he said:
"I sense more confidence in you than fear. You still belive, you can win this war."
And if you recruit him after thessia you have a different dialogue.
I'm just cracking up over the pink armor and goggles on Shep in some of those clips.
"We do not intent physical harm at this time" *Sasses in Geth* lol
I would add to this list additional dialogues on Noveria after killing Benezia - you can revisit it and some people like turian mechanic would say some lines about her.
Also since we're speaking about secrets, unique scene with engineer Shepard on Omega in ME3
And there were some funny lines with Legion in early ME2 that's not available in normal playthroughs. Legion on Jack's recruitment mission would say this banger of a line "There is a high statistical probability of death by gunshot. A punch to the face is also likely". Shame that you can recruit him only in the second half of the game
There is an "Easy" way to get the save Mordin option. If you start a new game in ME3, it just so happens that the things you need to have to trigger that option are pre selected for you. For those of us who don't have the heart to kill Wrex, or not recruit him and miss out on all the riveting "Shepard".... "Wrex" Dialog!
but then you miss the shepard wrex grunt shepard cutscene in the citadel DLC!
@@byeFofiko1 I didn't say the choice was easy... Just that there was an easy way to set up the "Save Mordin" option.
I've often taken Kaidan to Eden Prime in ME3 since he's my favorite character. That said, I definitely didn't know about his potential renegadeness in ME1, that's really interesting
I had no idea not punching the reporter was a rarity. I mean, my thinking is if a military officer just decked a reporter on live tv that'd be an automatic reduction in rank and likely discharge for conduct unbecoming.
Ah, but as a Spectre one is immune to rules (I didn't punch the reporter though)
I never did it on my serious playthroughs because I figured it was unbecoming to Shep.
@@adorableanimals4868 On the flip side, I could see my Ryder do it. It's a dichotomy, that sees the more military minded Shepard vs. the more awkwardly rambunctious Ryder, different approaches but ultimately similar outcomes.
@@mattitude4464 You would think so, but you still get a disappointed Anderson conversation, ouch.
The existence of the Zaeed thing is so crazy! I didn't even know you could recruit team members after the end game. I can't believe Bioware thought to plan for that and added a totally different story outcome that can affect ME3 but only for a tiny % of players.
Part of it is that zaeed and kasumi are dlc, and they didn't exist when the game was initially made
@@sunnydaze905zaeed was available 2 days after the launch of the game lol
I've sought out these rare dialogs and scenes ever since I started watching your videos! Only one I haven't personally done is bring Legion to Tali's recruitment/loyalty mission. I always worry I'd be cutting it too close to the point where the Normandy crew will get killed inside the collector base.
It's possible to do it.
If you go straight to the map to start Tali's mission after activating Legion (NO talking anyone), and after her mission, you go STRAIGHT to talk to Legion to talk to unlock his mission, and then proceed DIRECTLY to the map with NO unnecessary interactions, you can unlock the mission without getting the rest killed.
@@JabamiLain I'll give it a shot. Thanks!
One bit of "rare" dialogue i wish they leaned more into for the franchise, is a unique bit of conversation that happens if you play as an Engineer during ME3. During the Omega DLC, you are tasked with shutting off the power of one of the districts, but you end up having to decide to take longer and risk the lives of your two squadmates, or do a Renegade prompt that basicly kills an entire district!
However, if you play as an Engineer, you get a unique Paragon prompt as well, and Shepard will counter Oleks taunts of it taking too long to divert power, saying that you aren't just a stupid grunt...
I hope the next game will lean into this system more, letting classes solve certain issues with unique solutions!
It’s really only special cause of how rare it is tho, if everyone has them it’s just a class balance checklist
Wow, I played as an engineer and i ended up doing just that: saving both my squad mates and the people on omega too! I never knew that option was only possible as an engineer. Awesome fact!
@@Skullhawk13 It doesn't have to be everywhere but giving each class one or two unique options like that would be awesome. Just because people are asking for rain doesn't mean they want a tsunami.
@@damienjohnson3450 ok but here’s the thing, “just” one or two is already at class balance feature. It’s like in wow, They tried to do a throwback to older dungeons by including locks for one dungeon. Their reasoning was non-rogues could use the disposable profession lockpick tools, but in practice you just took a rogue because it was expensive to use a new item for each of the many locks. The engineer is already able to get a better result faster, But that’s throwing a bone to a lesser picked class. It’s easy to think of a scenario where a pure biotic could have something similar true, But how do you make a non-contrived scenario for each class, that isn’t logically something another could do. At most you could replace a squadmate for something as a flavor bonus but that’s not really what they’re asking for is it?
@@Skullhawk13 I disagree. I know what you mean, it's the same thing in Dragon Age Inquisition - in DA:O and DA2 only rogue had skills outside of battle, with lockpicking and trap disarming, but they've changed it and added skills like that for Mages and Warriors.
But I think this is different. In DA:I it forced you to always have at least on Rogue, Mage, and Warrior, because there could always something you need to open. Here, assuming it's no more than one or two interactions like that per class, it's just something that brings a smile on your face during your playthrough, some bonus for the role-playing that you have never seen before, but which ultimately doesn't matter and could very well not exist.
ME3 is big, I'm sure that few people could spend little time and find a few scenarios where there could be implemented a class-specific actions. Their lack isn't breaking the game, but I think their existence would be a nice little thing.
Man, I am STILL finding new dialog as I play through this, my favorite of all games (series or not). It just amazes me that I am still finding stuff, and not all just little bits. Amazing. And this is one game (the trilogy, now Legendary Edition) I actually do play a good bit. I just don't really ever get tired of it, and it's the only game(s) that this has really happened.
Punching Al-Jilani never sat right with me. Her job is to ask the questions no one else is willing to, and to do it out in the open. Granted, her people skills aren't the greatest, but I love her persistence. It's a bit concerning to me that people aren't able to empathize with someone thrust into that position.
I never punched Khalissa, despite her questionable practices. My Sherpard wasn't someone into burning bridges, when they could be powerful allies (particularly if you wanted to discredit the Council in order to make them easier to control). Besides, it seems kinda childish to use violence to deal with her.
It's a game dude, nothing about empathy, it's 'teehee I get to punch the pushy reporter'. We've all done far worse shit in GTA, get off your high horse with that shit. I'm absolutely certain that it's not in the slightest bit 'concerning' to you.
There is also a hidden dialogue in omega, if you take jacob and miranda to omega later in the game they encounter a salarian they both met in the comics. I belive the salarians name is Ish.. or something like that
Yep. Jacob isn't too happy to see Ish again.
When taking Garrus through the qz, you also get a bunch of ambient dialogue about his starting to feel a bit off, and commenting on it. Made me laugh the first few times I heard that.
I’d say one of my personal favorites is when you save David in me2 during overwatch then in me3 when you save grism academy you and him share a special moment.
Glad to see you getting some great sponsors, you deserve it!
I knew it! Secret Udina romance dialogue!!!
You can also get a specific cutscene if you beat James pull-up record
Damn I think this is the first time I've seen your video so soon. Love it so far!
Never thought i’d have persona 5 and mass effect in the same video! two of my favorite series
your videos and personality always helps with my bad days with depression thanks Dan I know you work hard on these videos thanks for your time.
I've been playing these games since the beginning and you've still managed to surprise me. You're a true baller, Big Dan!
The secret Mortin one... I got it once but didn't realize it was a secret/rare one
There’s another piece of hidden dialogue. If you refuse to invite liara up to your cabin in mass effect 2 and dump her in mass effect 3 the dialogue will be much more harsher.
Mass Effect is just the best game ever made and it even close
Surprised you didn't mention some of the rare things that can happen with the Citadel DLC. Like getting James and Ash to hook up, or spending the night with Javik. There's also all of Kasumi's hijinks lol. Good list though.
I never knew that the dialogue with Khalisah being nice was rare xD
While I have hit the option I've always reloaded bc it honestly it felt wrong. Correcting her and putting her opinions to shame on her own show always felt like the right choice as she has consequences for her allegations but in a way that gives her a chance to grow. She may not be the best person, but assaulting her honestly felt like it proved her point more than protected your own choices through the game.
Exactly
Who else is such a big Mass Effect nerd that they’ve seen everything on this list already during their play through 😭😂
There are some interesting dialogs when you take Kaiden or Ashley on Tuchanka bomb missions
I always paragon on Al-Jilani, to have her as war asset is my default in every playthrough
Thanks for all the mass-effect content. The first time i played these games I played them so bad 😅 missed a lot of things and deads 😂 after your video I feel like it was new complete experience
Great video!! Love it !
Honorable Mention: Wrex mentioning Ashley during his confrontation with you at the citadel
In Omega DLC for ME3 I like that one moment when you can resolve a normally very tense moment with hard choice just by playing as a engineer. I dont think there is a moment in the entire trilogy where you character class actually can make a difference in story :D
Content creator posting about my favorite game trilogy in 2023? Instant subscribe. Great content, my dude!
I've never punched the reporter. I've seen that dialogue every one of my more than 100 paragon playthroughs.
then you're a "pussy-shepard" xD
I love Persona, so I was very happy, but also very surprised to see a sponsorship from them
I actually had Ashley and Wrex on the last mission of ME1 in my current playthrough and it played out how Kaiden and Wrex did in this video
Ashley is a xenophobe throughout ME1, so that actually makes sense.
@@Guillidanwell like Kaiden you can make her change her stance on the other species, just choose the paragon dialog (well if you play paragon Shepard) and she'll be cool with everyone like the council
A new mass effect vid from Dan?! Hell yes!
Not exactly rare, but one of my favorite outcomes is the Conrad "bullet" dive. All the choices from ME1 coming together is so satisfying.
34k views hell yeah!
I know I've seen all of these before ... probably from your own channel ... but it's been at least 4 years since I've been playing ME regularly, and it's nice to see some epic game footage again.
This video showed up randomly in my feed - well done YT and Big Dan.
Okay. That Kaiden + Wrex thing for the council is so good.
I would also add when playing a renegade femshep and doing the UNC: Negotiation mission in ME1, the exchange between femshep and Darius is totally unique and one of the best in the whole trilogy imo
I knew about the not punching the reporter part. She maybe a jerk but I never punched her and in ME3 I got her as a war asset
My favorite will alaways be the ambient dialogue between Tali and Garrus in ME2 when you're going up the stairs to the upper level of Zakera ward.
I got that dialog with Khalisah at least once, I wish we could have recruited her as the Normandy reporter.
wrex wanting to save the council, interesting
Fun fact: I never punched the reporter, so I saw that scene in ME3 from my first playthrough
u have helped me since i first got into this game thanks dan ur fucking amazing man
Kaidan being more renegade than Wrex is pretty fucking hilarious.
Another small one is if you chose Spacer origin, Shepard and Garrus will talk (briefly) about Mama Shep after you get him in ME3. I have a video of it on my channel
Mass effect is one of my favorite games of all time it's in my top 5.. I really thought that I seen every dialogue and rare dialogues and once I got notification for your new video Big Dan.. I honestly thought 🤔 that you won't show us a rare dialogue that we haven't seen because I played it dozens of times but you got me on one.. I never knew about that where dialogue with Jack talking about Mordin... Thank you Dan for making this video for us and also there are times where I want to go renegade all the way in all three games but every time that I try to do renegade that I can't go through with it and I start over and going with Paragon... I know that sounds crazy but when I play Mass effect I truly feel like I'm commander Shepherd... I never go with default male or female I always make a different Shepherd... I can make a really beautiful female commander Shepherd but when it comes to male commander Shepherd.. I can only make him look decent in my opinion
"I made him a steak!" - damn it Manslay3r... I can't unhear that anymore. 😂 Got me laughing at a veey serious moment. 😂
Zaeed has funny moments but I wouldn't feel too bad about leaving him.
You can get that conversation with Khaleesa even if you punch her... I definitely got that one but i can never stop myself to punch her. xD
I never punched Khalissa, despite her questionable practices. My Sherpard wasn't someone into burning bridges, when they could be powerful allies (particularly if you wanted to discredit the Council in order to make them easier to control). Besides, it seems kinda childish to use violence to deal with her.
@@JabamiLainThat is correct... IF you play Full Paragon (tm). ;)
These are rare, but there's one I've never found reference to anywhere and is extremely easy to miss, and I was sad I didn't see it here.
If you talk with Udina after meeting up with VS on the Citadel for the third time but before the coup, you can actually talk to Udina about making them a Spectre. You can actually weigh in on whether or not Kaiden or Ashley would make for good spectres (and I think Shepard's reasoning for them not makes a lot of sense.)
My rare dialogue moment:
I decided with my Renegon FemShep, that I will not reveal the sabotage about the Shroud, but going to tell Mordin about it. Then I told Mordin, that the Dalatrass offered a deal for sabotaging the cure. Then after the "I made a mistake!" moment, I went Renegade and pulled the gun on Mordin. But I skipped the Renegade Interrupt. Longest 10 seconds of my life...
After that, Shepard stands down as Mordin enters the elevator, gave Shepard a quiet nod and went up to stop the Sabotage, while Shepard looked down and walked away, tossing her gun away. I personally belive, this was the proper way to let Mordin to cure the Genophage for my Renegon FemShep. And I felt the remorse as well, for almost shooting Mordin in the back.
I felt bad about shooting Mordin. But if I want to ensure Krogans and Rachni coexistance, he is necessary sacrifice.
You neglected to mention that taking Legion on those missions means you sacrificed the Normandy's crew due to that infamous hidden timer that starts after the mission that lets you recruit Legion.
You can do Tali's loyalty mission before Legion's without risking your crew. But you gotta move fast. No conversations with anyone BUT Legion to unlock his loyalty mission.
Or you can use a save editor.
As far I remember always punch the reporter in ME1 and 2. You can always trigger that dialogue if you don't punch her in ME3 and go for the Paragon response.
Had liaras hallucination on my first playthrough i was actually surprised when she didnt have em in my last playthrough
I never hit al-Jilani in my first playthrough because I was playing straight Paragon. Getting that moment with her in ME3 actually made it worthwhile. It felt real. And it was good to see her finally swayed to Shepard's side, entirely because he had been nothing but kind and professional to her the entire time.
Didn't know about Thane, Tali and Samara in the quarantine zone. I play on PS4 glad I got to hear it.
When curing the Genophage, don’t tell them about the sabotage immediately. Once Shepard is talking to Mordin at the tower, delay him and then miss the renegade trigger. The scene plays out more powerfully in Mordin’s dialogue and remorse, while still letting him complete the cure. They’ll even share an acknowledging head dip before he heads up in the lift.
Did not know about the plague related dialogue for Samara, Thane and Tali. I actually got the Liara hallucination dialogue during my very first play through and of the original ME1.
It sucks because there was dialog for these events on who you bring, you'd think with the current generation (Xbox series xls and ps5) they would've atleast allow the player to make that decision to recruit anyone now with the legendary edition
I didn't realise that not punching the reporter was such an uncommon choice among the ME community. I played paragade, meaning I did choose renegade choices occasionally in a mostly paragon playthrough (such as punching Gerrel for almost getting us killed), but I never punched the reporter in any games because it felt unprofessional, so I got that paragon talk with her in ME3 naturally.
Big Dan: playing the ME trilogy every conceivable way so we don’t have to. You’re doing God’s work, dude. Thank you!
Video idea for you. What are some different play styles to keep replaying the game fresh? For instance, my last playthrough I made the rule of no paragon or renegade options. This made dealing with companions harder and I got to see dialogue that I've never seen before.
One of the best games i have ever seen. Do we know something about the next ME? Or we still have that one teaser came out 2 years ago?
You know learning that you can corrupt Kaiden makes me kinda happy, cause its something i couldn't do with Carth Onasi in KOTOR 1... im giddy for my next fem shepard playthrough now since i rarely romance kaiden or ashley opting for Liara in 1 to get some differing dialogue in 2 and 3 depending on my romance in 2, i always feel like the air is tense as sh*t on Palaven when we go to re-recruit Garrus and they were both my love interests
I never punch Kaleeesi. So I see that dialogue every time.
Zaeed’s loyalty mission…what a wild ride.
Meeting the shadow Broker? The takeover?Even crazier.
Did a roughly 50%-50% split on the paragon/ renegade thing my last time through the trilogy.
Loved it.😊
As much as I love punching Kalissa, the renegade dialogue options are too damn good not to choose. Shepherd puts her in her place so damn well
I never punched Khalissa, despite her questionable practices. My Sherpard wasn't someone into burning bridges, when they could be powerful allies (particularly if you wanted to discredit the Council in order to make them easier to control). Besides, it seems kinda childish to use violence to deal with her.
@@JabamiLain yeah it's satisfying on a purely slapstick level, but using the dialogue options are so much more satisfying. Especially in Mass Effect 2
@@theaussiebrit indeed. That time, I just had to put her and her viewers in place. We're facing an apocalyptic war. They have to be more understanding.
Out of curiosity, say, how did you deal with the Council ? saved them and was mostly civilized, it's true, but I did everything I could to peer pressure the Council and destabilize the Citadel's political parts, believing it would make them more suggestionable. The methods included:
-Use Kalissa;
-Use Terra Firma;
-Use the Hanar zealot;
-Discredit the Turian councilor particularly;
-I would NEVER stoop so low as to make use of Udina. Even before the third game, he just wasn't good enough to represent humanity, especially in a time of war. I do have everyone's best interests in mind, I just have a more manipulative approach to it.
"or at the hands of commander Shepard if you're a heartless bastard."
Amen, brother
I'm pretty sure I let Zaeed die before doing the Suicide Mission
Legion's design, voice, and and dialogue are so good.
I never punched the reporter lol But I didn't realize Mordin could be saved in ME3. And wow! I didn't know about a lot of these before #5. That's pretty cool that they thought of these outcomes.
mass effect content pogchamp
I’ve come across a few of these but despite how many times I’ve played the game there were some I hadn’t seen. It’s such an amazing trilogy. I wish I loved Andromeda as much but unfortunately I don’t. Hope the next game will be great but I have serious doubts BioWare could make anything good these days.
my favourite dialogue is unintentionally funny, if you romance Kaidan in ME1 there's a post-romance scene where he says something sultry and it then immediately interject with "JOKER NEEDS TO SEE YOU AT THE BRIDGE". They reused generic dialogue and it mismatches the tone perfectly
You know you're speciesist if wrex a goddamn Krogan argues to save the council.
The hidden Khalisah dialogue is more commonly known amongst Paragon players, who prefer the more diplomatic approach of shutting her down with words.
I wish I could upload a screenshot with my comment, of my custom color scheme, armor in Mass Effect, two and three!!!
I made the armor portion this dark red, shiny like carbon, fiber, looking material and then gave it bright tan LED highlights(for the lines that outline the armor) and then the glowing lights on the back glow blue and I swear it looked like the canon armor for Mass Effect two and three!?
Looks like something Iron Man would wear? I like your armor featured in this with the blue and silver too. It looks really good.
12:50 what's funny is I did this my very first playthrough, I didn't know who she was yet and just put her off until she was the last thing so I could focus more on her. so I postponed talking to her and got this dialogue and thought that was just how the mission played out until later.
Your next video should be on how to make your own Commander Shepherd and maybe get tips on how to make both mail and female commander shepherds look good..
