Look at your very first post in this thread. ;)
Daehawk wrote:Well I installed it and have modded it. I wasn't going to replay it ever due to the ending but I have found a mod that lets you avoid the citadel weapon at the end totally, keep Shepard alive, and defeat the Reapers..just what I wanted. Ive also installed the SweetFX mod,. Beautiful.
And this sounds like you've been hacking the game data or save files:

It kinda sucks but it is my only option unless I want to edit each level setting to give me my points back on lvl. I just hope it keeps this lvl because if I have to do it all the time I just will quit because I have to give all my talents back to me and that takes a while. It also made all my companions lvl 60. So the game may be too easy now. ARGH.

Yeah, I hear that.
Spoiler:
I think you can actually prevent Mordin from dying if you convince him that he should fake the Krogan out. Of course, that carries a cost on its own.

You definitely can. He is still removed from the game from that point (I am pretty sure you never run into him again), but he lives.

I think Im the one who has messed up my Liara romance. Maybe I haven't..Ive just finished Tachanka and Citadel but Liara is still just giving me the default hi Shepard stuff when I try to talk to her anytime on ship. Maybe it is more later.

But how I think I messed it up is I said Liara and me are still on then later I said the same to Miranda. I didn't have it in my heart to hurt her and figured Id only see her later for her mission. But I may have broke Liara.

In my first play throughs I was Liara then Miranda then Tali...ya my Shepard got around. This time I really wanted to do the Liara ending scenes. I may have to go to YouTube to just watch them all lol.

hahaha Turns out you can make Shepard drink too much. I wanted to drink a few then hit the dance floor but didn't make it. After 3 drinks he passed out on the couch by Aria. When he woke up she gave him a look that made me chuckle.

I wanted to see it again so back to the bar. This time I woke up in the elevator outside the bar with a Salarian giving me a weird look that made me laugh harder. Going to try again and see where I end up. I doubt they put too many places for him to pass out but you never know.

Awwww it wont let me drink anymore right now. Will try again next shore leave. I was hoping he'd wake up in bed with a Krogan or maybe a Volus hahaha.

You guys are missing out not romancing Jack in ME 2. Something about breaking down those traumatically created psychological walls and seeing the softer side.

The whole time Im playing I keep hearing about fuel depots and save the fuel depots and the fleets need fuel. Ok so great but just what the hell are the Reapers running on? Why dont they have to worry with fuel of some sort and why cant I take that out?

All this running around alone on Citadel makes me a little sad about not hearing funny crew conversations. used to hear some doozies in the elevators.

And yet again the story gets in the way of me having fun. Pisses me off so I alt f4 it. Stupid intelligence npc gets caught and forces my entire crew to drop their weapons. If it would give me the damn choice Id never drop my guns again..Id choose to let her get killed then Id kill them. Instead of have to watch the cutscene then fight my way out. Only to die and piss me off. Damn story.

This Citadel addon is damn good. Joker came to pick me up and of course theres just room for me and 2 others. Its a pick squad spot. I pick two and look over at the rest and say "Whats wrong?" and Rex says "Awww I wanted to go" LOL..then someone else chimed in "Me too. I never get picked" hahahaha...good stuff. I actually felt bad to leave them.

Glad you're enjoying it. One of the best parts is coming up, IMO.

I took Wrex through that whole thing, personally - it was good to see some Krogan ass kicking, even if for only a little while.

Loving the stuff to do in this addon but theres not enough of it and it doesn't last long enough. Like just now Jack stopped by with a Varren dog. It was maybe 40 seconds long. I was hoping she was giving him to me and I could play fetch and stuff...nope..just a 40 second visit and thats that. Now Im out of invites and it seems its time for the end party. Sad.

Finished it again.

Happy ending mod FTW! Now thats the ending I wanted.

Hmmm Anderson still died. I could swear I installed a mod to keep him alive.

2 things I still dont get. Why does the Normandy try to run away and outrun the energy effect? It wont hurt them. And the other is why must the gates be destroyed / damaged? At least they can rebuild them fast it seems.

Wow. I had never heard of that mod. I watched an ending on YouTube. That was roughly a trillion times better than the steaming pile of feces Bioware came up with. Bravo.
