1)Is there any hope of finding some wayward colony of aliens that the council does not even know exist? I doubt it would hapen, but I would like it if at some point you found some random little race on some backward planet.
2)I'm almost positive it wont happen, but is there anyone out there besides me who would enjoy running some sort of military outpost? Perhaps, at the councils request, you become a part of some interspecies military group. You could travel the galaxy finding good recruits. Then you would have the choice of getting quality people with morals and all that junk, or just a bunch of kick *** mercs.
3)Speaking of mercenaries, are they a major part of the game? Is there some sort of mercenary organization or is there just a few roving bands of them here and there. It would be awsome if you could hire them to help you on missions.
4)For some reson, I keep thinking that at some point, some major character is going to be captured by the Geth. You will go off to save them, only in time to watch as they get turned into a husk. Then you would get to blow their head off (which they deserve for being dumb enough to be captured by robots anyways)Edited By Wintersun2020 on 10/30/07 01:00 |

Great Post I love exploration post. Your talking like the Exchange in Kotor. I hope there are groups like that. Remember Czerka? I hope this game last 20 hours more than Kotor or longer. I've been playing Kotor and I'm on dantooine and i've already got 14 hours of gameplay. Is that slow?

Yeah I too have thought and hoped about these things.
1) I most definately hope so, thats something I thing may actually be probable. They would be rather primative by galactic standards but.
2)Yeah prob wont happen but it would suit most peoples Shep to have such authority of recruitment and so on. If they did you would have a choice as to the personality of your recruits as its all about choice.
3)If the book held any hints its that Mercs will play a large part in the Galaxy. The Blue Suns are the largest and most organised merc group but there are many others.
Its so close now... yet so far.

In Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance your party IS a band of mercenaries. Which it would be cool see again, I have an idea of how the story could change to Shepard being in a band of mercenaries by the third game.
Anyway, until then mercenaries in any form in this first game would be nice to see. You know, aside from Wrex. |

1 Not likely, put feasable.
2 Sounds like something for a sequel. I highly doubt something that big wouldn't be mentioned in some form of a press release.
3 Oh yeah, definitely.
4 I can see something like that, thing is, it IS a trilogy, and charcters can die. But if these characters are going to be withg us for a while, I'd put my money on someone dying later in a nice big way.
Here are some of my thoughts.
1) What are the Quarians up to? We don't know what they look like, they seem surprisingluy human behind those masks and no one is allowed on their ships... Hmmm....
2) Where the BLEEP are the Batarians?!?! The lead writer, Mr.Karpyshyn (spelling?) said there is a darn good reason for it, but if it's just 'cause of the Geth or human expansion, that seems, I dunno, slightly anti-climactic.
3)We spend all that time creating Shepard, there's got to be more to that than just an introductionary "What about Shepard?" speech. Seems to me, there's a WHOLE bunch of replay value there, and something for future stories if not immeadiately addressed. Any thoughts?
4) Shadow Broker. What's his deal? I smell a long running arc.
Sorry if this is a more personal thread, but, eh, thought this might be a good way to express my thoughts. |

1)I'm still convinced the quarians are trying to create AI again. I could see them as being that arrogant sort of race that thinks they have "worked out the kinks" this time.
No idea on the rest. |
