Replaying the mass effect series and want to do everything different from my first playtrough. That means I'm gonna fuck up the universe and will be full renegade.
Now I dont know if I should choose kaidan or ashley this time. Last time I took Ashley because she's hot.. this time kaidan but I don't know if he's worth it.
Is there anything else I should know when going full rampage on the universe.
Lincoln Turner
I was originally going to save Kaidan but then he made a rude jealous comment about Liara and my Femshep. So he died instead. No regrets. I really liked Ashley in 3 (mostly Citadel).
Jaxson Cooper
Ashley is racist so your renegade should love her.
Jayden James
Ashley is SEX
Oliver Hernandez
Ash is a red pilled QT, Kaiden is a low energy beta cuck.
You know what to do.
Evan Scott
Yes, I thought so too. But kaidan can be an asshole too, right?
Dominic Watson
Kaidan if a whiny faggot in 1, unreasonable faggot in 2 and full-blown faggot in 3. Ashley is kinda racist in 1, unreasonable bitch in 2 and full-blown sexdoll in 3.
Oliver Myers
Can I make Kaidan my lustgnome?
Thomas Wright
No but you can turn him into a pile of ashes.
Connor Sanders
Kaidan actually gets some development in 3, but Ashley doesn't.
He's also far more useful as a squadmate in 3.
Samuel Nelson
Ashley is a boring racist human, that somehow is still religious.
3 games later, she is a boring racist human that is somehow still religious. I pick her just to push her survivors guilt.
Xavier Peterson
Don't mind me. Just posting the best some best bro.
Landon Green
Man I really fucked that sentence up
Nicholas Bailey
>not Wrex
Ryder White
3rd game.
Brayden Anderson
Kaidan holds a higher rank and has expensive biotic training so I saved him.
Ashley is just some low-IQ grunt, easily replaceable.
Cooper Smith
Somehow I don't understand why everybody loves him and not Wrex
Anthony Watson
is it just me or is the KI in ME 1 really stupid without your orders? I like your thinking
Logan Foster
Wrex is a bro but he was ready to abandon you on Virmire. Garrus ALWAYS takes your side without questions
Luis Edwards
Well, he was a squadmate in all three games. I guess he gets bonus points for loyalty?
Carter Rivera
Holy shit, this. Wrex is the only squad member who seems genuinely happy to see you alive. Everyone dumped their points into edgelord, Wrex went full BFF dudebro.
John Morales
Because Garrus is [our guy]
Jackson Williams
>Wrex is a bro but he was ready to abandon you on Virmire. Garrus ALWAYS takes your side without questions He had a complicated relationship with his people, so finding out that the other side suddenly has the cure to your pain, what's slowly killing off your people is kind of a big thing.
Wrex has more growth than Garrus, I love Garrus, he was a total bro, but he kinda goes back and forth between being the same person who seeks revenge and is willing to bend the law to get revenge.
Dylan Baker
>low-IQ grunt Coming for a high ranking military family, redpilled, loves poetry, would have a drink with you anytime. The only reason for the lower rank is her grandads history with turians. Only a faggot would pick Kaidan "Buttlove" Alenko instead
William King
Wrex has other stuff he has to care about. That's why he leaves you later on, because he needs to watch out for his people and later un-fuck the genocide
Ryan Anderson
Wrex is a good bro, but he is loyal ONLY to his species. He understandably wants the genophage cured, but is willing to let the galaxy be decimated by the reapers just because he can't wait a little while longer. Garrus saw his entire planet and a majority of the turian fleet get obliterated by the reapers and still understood there is more at risk than just his species while still maintaining loyalty to them and you. Krogan anger is justified, but curing the genophage wouldn't matter if the galaxy got destroyed anyways.
Kevin Wright
Ashley is a cunt but I hate it but it doesn't even matter because mass effect is a trash series and the next 2 games have whichever one survived use practically the exact same dialog, and the survivor has Ashley's personality so it really doesnt matter.
Grayson Cox
is that true? do they have the same personality? If that's true, I would stay with big boobs Ashley
Carson Young
They both end up looking the same.
Charles Morgan
Almost the same. Only Kaidan suddenly develops love for shepard's cock.
Jonathan Wright
This. Fuck everyone who says is a tranny, she's my qt.
Wyatt Harris
The only lines where their dialog differs in the next 2 are talking to them outside of cutscenes, in main story cutscenes they have nearly the exact same dialog with very few minor changes. It *feels* more like Ashley's personality but really their personality in the main story cutscenes just becomes very bland and generic, its ashley's bitchiness but with nothing that made her unique.
Zachary Adams
Ashley's lazy eye does it for me, desu.
Jace Long
>Ashley >racist She only outright hates Turians, and a lot of this is because they assfucked the post her dad lead, and had to live with her family name being associated with surrending to them
Levi Wilson
Nah, she's bitchy towards all aliens in ME1 except Liara.
Aaron Anderson
>light skin, brown hair and brown eyes >tsundere but a sweetheart inside Sorry, but i'll always go with Ashley.
Bentley Walker
This desu.
Brayden Sullivan
I usually let Kaiden get nuked to spare him the fate of being in ME3
Asher Martin
I hated both, her having tits and ass saved her life
Carter Garcia
Everyone on your ship is bitchy to aliens, and vice-versa, there's a big theme of distrust in the early game, as the first bit of alien criticism comes from Pressley
And a lot of it's not because they're aliens, and more because every council race has been snubbing humans ever since they broke a Relay law people didn't even know existed at the time, seeing this as a sign that humans are horrible greedy monsters that have nothing by colonization on their mind, yet every other race still passive-aggressively uses Medi-gel
Nolan Fisher
underrated post
Noah Fisher
She gets bitchy with Liara if you're playing a Male Shepard.
Aaron Clark
But that's only because she thirsts for your dick and sees the member of the alien race that has the ability of looking hot to all other races as competition.
Owen Mitchell
hm you got the choice between a literal faggot and a redpilled qt how is this even up for debate
Colton Hernandez
>tfw Ashley killed Wrex in ME1 in my one and only playthrough of the trilogy.
Fuck her. Kaiden all the way.
Jordan Sanders
Kaidan is a biotic, Ashley is just a normal human. You shouldn't have a hard time figuring out which one is more valuable.
Brandon Sullivan
the difference of people is amazing
Matthew Baker
This is your fault for not getting to know Wrex or helping him get the armor that was stolen from him, Ash just cooled a situation that'd end with you dying because all Wrex could hear was "GENOPHAGE" and "CURE" without reading the fine print
Matthew Nelson
>Kaidan is a biotic A reject L2 biotic that only existed to lay the groundwork for L3's
Cooper White
>being this bad
Jeremiah Turner
>kills a violent alien that's threatening your mission to save the galaxy >bad
Christian Sanchez
Failed her first mission against weak-ass geth and got her squad killed. Try-hard always getting out of line. Hates aliens, alien three-ways unlikely.
>loves poetry Thinks white-knighting this cunt is the non-faggot path. You're not supposed to keep either of them once you get a fuck off squad and find someone better to romance.
Logan Hughes
kys yourself Ashley best girl.
Adam Ross
>survived being attacked BY A FUCKING REAPER >not afraid to speak up and say what needs to be said unlike the weasel yes man Kaiden >wary of Turians because of the shit they pulled, three-ways are degenerate and Ash is a pure and loyal waifu >has an appreciation for finer historic human arts and culture
Looks like she's pretty much best girl.
Talifag pls go.
Luis Peterson
I miss the old mass effect threads
Wyatt Long
Because secretly everyone loves Mac Walters, who was responsible for him in ME1, and thus favoured him in 2 and 3
Blake Morales
I was just talking to her but I was surprise there were no dialogue options to agree with her and her anti alien views.
Ethan Barnes
>women get catty because they're fighting over a cock
Art mirrors life.
Adrian Taylor
>Sup Forums - Tali Zorah Sup Forumsas Normandy
How do we go back?
Chase Williams

Leo Gomez
When I first played Mass Effect 1 back in 2010 I would always pick Ashley. But replaying the game last year, I couldn't find anything redeemable about her character. Kaiden is an absolute bro and Ashley is just content for my dick. Always save Kaiden now. It's a testament to how good the characters are in Mass Effect and how people (me) can change as they grow up.
Probably didn't help that before my ME replay I had just played Dragons Age and fell in love with Alastair.
Noah Barnes
you might be gay user. sry
Thomas Peterson
>he didn't go out of his way to only recruit 4 squad members until Virmire so that the game would automatically save Wrex no matter what because you need at least 2 people on your team.
Camden Hernandez
Alistair was always a bro That guy was fucking 10/10
Austin Richardson
Logically, you'd wanna save the invaluable one-of-a-kind L2 biotic at a higher rank than just another soldier girl. Gameplay-wise, Kaiden is a sentinel so he's a good teammate for variety as opposed to Ashley's basic soldier set-up that James does
Jayden Wilson
Literally fighting geth on Eden Prime. Implying Kaidan was ever called a man. Nobody cares. Having this small of a dick compared to a girl.
Tali just stays there until the space jew carnival is wiped out from Rannoch in my games. Does everyone think over the two nastiest cunts they can have?
Austin Wilson
In Mass Effect 2 they both use the same script for their dialogue so Kaidan acts more like Ashley for no reason, and there is a bug in Mass Effect 3 where you can't finish all of the conversations with the scottish/irish engineers and get their war assets with Kaidan because the flag that triggers their dialogue requires you to be friends with Ashley, and you can't if she's dead.
That said, they ruined her design in 3, and Kaidan is the better character if you don't have PTSD from KOTOR and Carth. Try to romance someone in 3 before you speak too much to him, that way the gay dialogue won't trigger. (It only happens if you're not in a romance, otherwise you get the friendship dialogue.)
Mason Moore
>saving the girls who just joined the Normandy crew instead of the friend who's worked with you for a while
Colton Cooper
You can easily ensure he doesn't make a move on you
And now that I think about it, I wonder how many people were taken aback when this first happened to them
Austin Perry
>fuck up the universe You can't do that, that's why it's a bad video game series, your choices literally don't matter.
Alexander Powell
>Ashley kills an alien that's pulled a weapon on her commander based desu. Wrex's fault for being a cunt and YOUR fault for fucking up his quest chain and not being able to talk him down.
Mason Hughes
just makes her a better character
Robert Bell
"I can't tell the animals from the aliens"
Idk famalam sounds racist to me
Angel King
Surprised no one has brought up the dumb retarded rumor that she was modeled after a tranny. how did that stupid rumor start anyways?
Owen Bailey
Not that hard to do as a new species, esp. with pic related, Vorcha, Yhag, Elcor, etc.
Dylan Hughes
>Ashley is racist
NO SHE ISNT YOU STUPID NIGGERS SHE IS JUST EXTREMELY DISTRUSTFUL OF THE FUCKOS THAT DECLARED WAR AGAINST THEM RECENTLY, SHE EVEN BECOMES BEST FRIENDS WITH TALI. ITS A BIOWARE GAME HOW IS THE WRITING HARD TO UNDERSTAND REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Liam Baker
Probably because she looks like one.
Nicholas Rodriguez
Stop. Ashley is hot.
Anthony Barnes
t. space nigger Cerberus did nothing wrong gas aliens, space war now
