This is why the Mass Effect trilogy is so great. They actually acknowledge all the different ways a player can go about things. Games like Skyrim will flat out ignore major player choices, let alone the details like this.

[@MrChickennugget360]

Skyrim is of course a very different type of game. Morrowind however was more prone to recognize your choices. The issue is how much choice the player has as well as the cost of voicing all those choices. Morrowind was text mostly so it was easy to record all the many choices you could choose from. When Skyrim came out it was almost entirely voiced which means you don't get as many choices. true is also with Mass Effect- It ultimately is forced to limit player interactivity to an extent and can't have as many missions as it would if it was not required to voice everything. Moral of the story is not everything needs to be voiced. Some of my favorite missions from the ME series were un-voiced side missions.

[@justinboivin]

@@MrChickennugget360 True, not everything needs to be voiced, but sometimes acknowledging player choice is as simple as a tweak showing in game changes. Like in Skyrim, they could have simply have made the Forsworn not hostile after helping Madanach....but then again, mods fix most problems.

Best way to do that while still ensuring squad survival in the suicide mission, make sure you only save Tali's loyalty mission for after you get the Reaper IFF, do Tali's loyalty mission next, and then go straight to Legion's loyalty mission. Also make sure to get all of your ship upgrades and other hub planet upgrades before you get the Reaper IFF.

"I never brought active Geth aboard! I Only sent parts and pieces," she says while standing next to Legion.

[@rollin340]

Wow. The ME2 affecting that line of dialogue in ME3 was some great detail from the team.

[@archangelgv2811]

When Legion said "Shepherd-Commander" on the Derelict Reaper mission, he was meant to be a squad mate.

[@jaysheriffe6292]

old bioware/ EA.....a time when they paid attention to details. We didn't know how good we had it back then :(

[@idkkkkk5194]

This game is an absoulte masterpiece I don't think there is any other game with such passion and attention to details.

[@NobodyHere951]

This option is great fun, it's worth doing once despite the fact you need to leave Tali's mission until the end of the game.

[@roberttauzer7042]

Aaaand still, best RPG ever made.

[@ReinQuest]

Your comment on how the interactions make this more immersive is why ME still holds a place in my heart that no other game can fill.

[@MoonbornUwU]

I love Geth, by far my favorite species.

[@quesocoatl21]

Yeah they're the most alien but also very relatable.

[@stevecolour8010]

That line at 1:20 never fails to crack me up, especially these days. It really sounds like Shepard is in Karen mode.

[@ghostofdestiny3179]

I like the daily upload can't wait for legendary edition

[@GabrielFatality]

11 years and I never thought about doing that

[@DarKGameR177]

Now this was a fun video... Thanks for sharing this one Dan! Keep it up! 👍

[@BigDanGaming]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@bobyjoe493]

Man your videos made me go back and start a new game of me2

[@ninachan8920]

I strive for enjoying all the small details in the grand scheme of things when it comes to Mass Effect, Especially Mass Effect 3 which I used to feel differently about it's amazing how 10 years since you've played a game can change how you enjoy the game as you change as well.

[@Eugine1888]

Tali doesn’t bring Legion on the ship, Shepard does.

[@tombardsley3081]

I’m always scared to do the loyalty mission after recruiting legion cos have heard it might cost your crew that gets abducted

[@winternet9478]

I think he made a video about that, you should check it out

[@tombardsley3081]

@@winternet9478 oh ok. I’ll have to look for it. Just that when I’ve played through it and seen other play throughs they haven’t done that. Barring one when I saw Pete Complete do it and I was like “interesting. Might have to investigate for myself when I get to that point in the game”

[@BigDanGaming]

Here's a link to my video on how to save everyone kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4G5gWSBbbmcadU You can complete Legion's loyalty mission and still save the crew so long as you do it before they get kidnapped by Collectors. Once the crew gets nabbed you have to do the final mission straightaway or you'll lose some of them

[@tombardsley3081]

@@BigDanGaming yeah I got that part but wasn’t sure if you did both tali’s and legion’s loyalty missions after you recruit legion, does that have an affect on crew deaths following abduction? Ie does crew abduction trigger at any point before you do both tali’s and legion’s loyalty after recruiting legion or only afterwards?

[@YourCrazyDolphin]

@@tombardsley3081 I know this is late but if you have a few missions piled up, you can immediately do Tali's loyalty mission, then unlock Legion's, then do his before the collector attack since you get 2 missions. Alternatively... You can just do it after the suicide mission.

[@Survivor_of_DMVdrivers]

I realize it's two separate universes / IPs, but can you imagine the banter between Legion and HK47 from Star Wars: KotOR? That'd be the best interaction EVER! 😊

[@JesusChristDenton_7]

I need to see this now.

[@Flavj4]

Everytime I hear Claudia Black's voice.. OMG!

[@Kevin_2435]

Admirals: Tali we accuse you of sending some possibly active geth parts to the fleet. Tali: hold my beer

[@thomasprout9298]

Damn game looks so good I didn’t even realize it was the og version.

[@alibeknurashev1954]

Good luck, Dan! Just here to support

[@garyghost7169]

Holy shit man your channel’s growing like a Krogan, keep up the good work

[@BigDanGaming]

Thanks!

[@Joe-fq6bz]

So cool thanks for sharing. One of my favorite games I played many times and had entirely no clue. Never even crossed my mind this was possible.

[@ssfbob456]

I like when you take him on Tali's recruitment mission, especially when you meet Kal'Reeger.

[@jaredcrabb]

Is there a video on that? I wanna see, but I dont want people to die for getting him too early.

[@sprzedawcapaczy]

I am in awe. Seriously. I was not expecting anyone to dissect these things that much. Thank you.

[@CameraObscure]

Ha just at the point of recruitring Legion via IFF mission having recruited everyone else and all loyalty missions done except for Tali's and Legions OFC. Wanted to see what the Quarians reactions would be like. Been a tough slog getting to this point for me doing it on insanity mode. Its gonna be fun. will enjoy this (2 hrs ) after this comment was posted 🥇☣🔚.

[@Xiaolruc]

I can confirm that it's possible to complete the Reaper IFF Mission, then complete Tali's Loyalty Mission and Legion's Loyalty mission in time so as not to lose any of the Normandy's crew.

[@shadekerensky3691]

Tali: *raises hands in defense* I would never bring active Geth to the fleet! Legion: Creator Tali, look at me.

[@griffingower1883]

Legion: *Creator Zorah, we are right here next to you.*

[@alcian91]

Since I knew Legion would become a companion, I waited for Tali's loyalty mission to be the one after getting Legion. It was so much fun.
