Seriously, what an obviously stupid thing to not spoiler.

You keep the same character, resetting alignment and skill points. So you can't change classes, but at least you can readjust the skills for all of your squadmembers. Just make sure that you change the difficulty before you leave Eden Prime if you are going for the higher difficulty achievements.

Somehow, even though I played the entire game with the Tali and Ashley I didn't get the achievements for it :/ Pretty argh about that.

Yes you can. Liara swings both ways.

You have to do the majority of EVERYTHING with the characters. That includes sidequests. If you missed a lot of sidequests, that will count against the percentage of the game done with those party members.

>.< Boo urns. I think I saved over my saves too. Well shit. Oh well more things to do when I buy the game at a later date.

I thought that, too. That and the Land Rover from Phantasy Star. I'm about 5 hours into Mass Effect and I'm awe of how cool it is, and how it improves the KotOR/Jade Empire formula. I always wanted Bioware to do an original sci-fi ARPG.

The best part is how little Star Wars influence there is, people always hark on Sci-Fi games because "OMG STAR WARS DID IT FIRST"

Beat it.
Love it.
Will play again on Renegade.
Last Boss beaten on one try.
As much as i love the game..the constant suicides was disheartening. Though Serans was the only one to make me go "Oh Shit". They dont cut away like they did with the other ones. straight through and through.
All in all i cant wait for the sequels.

All i ask is for more movement during the dialog scenes. Have them do something else besides just stand there.
