When you’re done with the 30 hour emotional roller coaster that is Mass Effect 3, it’s quite addictive to dabble in the multiplayer. Actually, unknownst to me, you were supposed to play the multiplayer before you got to the finish to maximize your potential outcome. But regardless, I’m sure most Mass Effect 3 owners are in the stage of finishing up the campaign or at least working on it so they can focus on the multiplayer aspect. The game itself may be semi-repetitive, but there is certainly an addictive aspect that gives this mode high replay value. You essentially choose from a series of 5 or 6 races from 6 classes, each differing in their own unique way to team up with 3 others to fight a Horde Mode with sprinkled missions. Today’s post is dedicated to the favorite classes I’ve been playing as of recent.
BTW, if anyone wants to play, friend request me on PSN: Figfire. Write Bananascoop in the message box to give me a heads up.

Lone Fire Warrior is a monster. With a combination of gmod [Garry’s Mod] and Photoshop, he was able to take Video Game’s most current heroes and pit them against video game’s worst enemies. With more than just a crazy action shot, a lot of these images have heart and emotion just based on the lighting, postures of the characters, and atmosphere around them. This amazing series, named the Vindicator Series, is a gallery of these heroes in multiple situations. Be sure the check out the rest of the gallery compiled below and then visit his Deviant Art Page to take a look at what else he has cooked up.

Mass Effect has significantly changed my life when it comes to gaming. I used to not be such a big video game guy as it took me nearly 5 years to finally get a PS3 after it was released. Mass Effect 2 was among the first game I got. While it was difficult to get into, not playing Mass Effect 1 and buying it used so I couldn’t control decisions from the first game, I managed to eventually persevere through it and get all the correct DLC to get the way I wanted. By the time Mass Effect 3 came out, I spent 30 hours gaining everyone’s loyalty and etc., I had successfully gotten a fairly perfect Paragon mode with all my crew members. I spent another 30 hours playing through Mass Effect 3 and my Paragon Male Shepherd chose the synthesis route and I thought I was done and satisfied.
It was interesting that I never truly considered the Renegade route. Even more astonishing that I never remotely considered a female Shepherd. And after going through some forums I read some very interesting quotes regarding my decisions: “Anyone who has never played a Female Shepherd should be considered sexist” and “Playing through renegade is a completely different side to the Mass Effect universe”. I’ve taken these statements into account and decided to knock out two birds with one stone. So here is my journey as Renegade FemShep.
