Of course they do. Or they should, anyway.

I should be playing this tonight for a little and tomarrow when I'm off work (capitalist boss is giving me last copy w00t). Also I'll be calling him in a little while to see if we'll be getting any more early.

This is how Bioware has handled branching dialog trees in previous games. Many conversations will play out exactly the same, regardless of how you answer. The differences are there for role-playing purposes + alignment change.

Yeah, I've noticed that it does work like that. It's really no big deal.

Also, it doesn't happen as often as I first thought, so I may have been jumping the gun.

So I'm totally stuck on one encounter. I get fucking steamrolled every time, and I can't back out of it. Combat is fucking intense.

I recently got control of the Normandy, so I decided to dick around a little, and headed to Therum. Just had the most ridiculous, intense fight so far. Took me a few tries. Fucking awesome.

Combat really is amazing in this.

Looks like we aren't getting anymore copies till day 1

Sorry k3v.
You can still waste gas and come get it from me that day, though!

I know the one you're talking about

Exploring the galaxy is too awesome.
