So, I’m playing Mass Effect 3 again for my second runthrough…

…and I’ve stopped for a moment to check: is there any combination of actions in the first two games that, when done, would allow me the option of going to the salarian homeworld and putting three assault rifle rounds in the head of the dalatrass for her suggestion that there’s a plausible alternate universe there where I’d sell out the krogan?  Specifically, Wrex?

No?

Pity.  Maybe that can be in the DLC.

PS: I mean, seriouslyThis pissed me off the first time, and I haven’t noticeably gotten any less pissed off about it since.

  1. I’m still pissed that at the end, you get to have a long, heartfelt talk with almost everyone (including newbie guy you hardly know) EXCEPT Wrex.

  2. I did, but that’s not a very interactive or engaging sequence compared with *every other character* – which involved lengthy dialogue and multiple choices. He’s one of the three most important characters to me (others being Garrus and Liara) and I’d expected more.

  3. Yeah, the Dalatross is a terrible person. She claims to be all about the long view, yet her precious long view somehow doesn’t factor in the subjugation of the galaxy by the Reapers. If she fears an expansive by fertile Krogans, shouldn’t she be a bit more worried about a Reaper-enhanced Krogans gene-slave race? Oh yes, that would be MUCH better.
    Not that her people would be around to see it anyways…

  4. I’d buy that DLC.

    Well, there’s one way. If you don’t do his personal mission or have a high enough Charm (you can’t Intimidate Wrex) he dies in ME1.
    Wreav is a pale imitation to whom there’s little if any emotional investment.

  5. You can’t intimidate Wrex? I swear I did in my umteenth run-though as a super-renegade (AKA: Femshep the arsehole).

  6. My second run-through I went complete renegade with maxed Intimidate, and didn’t do his side mission.
    Tried every dialogue option, and had only the choice between whether I shot him in the face, or Ashley shot him in the back. Brutal.

  7. Maybe if you do his side mission? I’m a completion-ist, I do all the missions. Maybe that was the difference? Maybe I’m hallucinating.
