I don't care much for the Spectres anyway. When I played through the game, my character Asmodene Shepard ( dancing ), wasn't that thrilled about the Spectres to begin with. And as far as humans go, people play humans in almost every game where they are available because its the closest thing to "normal" they can get. It's hard to play an angsty-character (that most everyone loves... I'll punch you all in the face) if you're playing an Elcor or a Hanar.

I think that's where gaming fails: when people don't experiment with possibilities. Go outside your comfort zone with character types, game types. Learn to adapt and evolve.

No Spectres and, people's interest willing, no Super-troopers, either. I have a premise. I hope, when the time comes to unveil it, everyone approves.

Ooh, boy. I do so hope that someone tries to put a Hanar or a Elcor into the game. That would be an interesting experience.

Offended. I disagree. Aggressive. I can play angsty like nobody's business.

This one begs to differ with your statement. This one is a most troubled soul.

Would you describe that one Elcor in his species and the Volus’s embassy, Xeltar or something, as angsty? Doesn't he spend his small-screen appearance whining about the Consort?

Condescending remark: BioWare never recycles any ideas. Query: Do they? Query: Is my manner of speech really so interesting to meatbags that it must be palely imitated in every poorly characterized droid and everything BioWare ever does in the future?

Statement: This is not a holiday I am familiar with. Extrapolation: I assume the event is largely handled via speaking like HK-47?

Pleased exclamation: I'll hang the stockings by the Xbox. Hopeful plea: Perhaps I will gain points on my gamertag.

So, what do you think I should be explaining for Mass Effect? To make sure everyone can udnerstand the game?

Just pull out the game's instruction manual and copy down all things relevant.

An Elcor Sentinel wouldn't be a bad thing to play. While a Krogan would be fun, I feel the prospect of the Elcor more enticing.

Unneccesary EDIT noise for benefit of posting an image: Beep.

That's a good idea.
