Aw I enjoyed that one. Though I guess if you already know the information being revealed it becomes a lot less interesting

nah the moment with her already passed a few hours ago in the playthrough

it was with Diana Allers LMAO

which makes it way worse

i thought i heard she was only available for MemShep so i tried one of the choices. and then it gives you like two chances for you to back out. and i kept going

cheating is never just a "mistake" people. you deserve better

I never got why Diana Allers is even a character. It would have been more satisfying, and funnier, to have Khalisah aboard as the press.

the funniest thing with Diana Allers is that you can bang her and then kick her off the ship

ok i'm not understanding why because after checking it seems all i had to do was warn her about Kai Leng and complete loyalty from ME2

i'm pretty sure i did the warning because you get the dialogue where she says "Kai Leng that slippery bastard is still alive" and whatnot

that means i didn't resolve the conflict? but this playthrough i used the comic instead of importing a save and it says you can choose to "resolve the conflict" between her and Jack and while i don't remember actually choosing it since it was months ago at this point, why the fuck would i not choose that option??

yeah it happens from the terminal. if you check the dossier on KL you get sent, Shepard will just automatically mention it to her.

after further digging, i guess this was it. because i don't even remember having that third conversation that happens in person. don't even remember getting the message that she was looking to meet up after the spectre terminal one. she mentions what she's been up to and i think this is where you get the option to go on the Horizon mission(?). so i just went there since i just finished Thessia. i might be misremembering things. this is my 4th or 5th playthrough and this is the first time she's ever died here.

iirc if you imported a save, you start out with higher reputation making it easier to pass some checks. i guess that's what's affecting things? wonder if i should even do citadel DLC on this playthrough at this point ... everybody won't even be there....

I remembered that I did an ME ranking with some friends ages ago, and managed to dig out my list from 2016. I see some definite changes to be made, but I should be able to get this in tonight.

Characters I had on that list that aren't on here:
Shaman
Corporal Toombs
Mad Prophet
...Shifty Looking Cow
Space Hamster

Nah, it's fine. I don't think any of the characters have numbers in their names, so I should be able to easily paste them into a list.

Well, can't believe I did it but just sent my PM with my rankings for all characters outside of Andromeda. There's definitely a bunch that get sort of lost in the shuffle a bit that could potentially be a bit higher or lower if I replayed the games more recently but I'm pretty happy with the main ones I wanted to rank.

How does the reveal go? X number of placements at a time, from last place eventually up to first place? Or is it just one at a time?

for the last one, it was around 5 at a time. and then one at a time for top 20 iirc

i like a mix of both. imo don't really need to stagger placements of the "randoms" too much but i would like the "big" character drops to be spaced more out so there's more room for potential discussion.

there were times during Street Fighter where i would have commented on some characters but they were part of a group drop with like two other "bigger" characters or something so they ended up getting ignored. i know there's not really anything stopping me from commenting on all of them but it's just a vibe/mood thing. but it's not that big a deal

looking forward to the reveals!!!!11
