Just needed to post something to let everyone know I'm still here ;)

Last summer I finally got around to recreating my Commander Shepard in "Mass Effect 2". When I first heard that you'd be able to import your Shepard from ME 1 I was hoping they'd allow us the ability to tweak/modify her appearance. Unfortunately, your Shepard is imported exactly as they appeared in ME 1, hence they get no creation code. You can of course alter your imported Shepard's look, but you'd have to start from scratch, so I didn't bother with that for the first several months, just enjoyed the game :D

The top image is a digi-photo of my Shepard as she was imported from ME 1.

The bottom is my new defiinitive Shepard and the one I plan to export to "Mass Effect 3" ;p This image is more how I would have wanted Shepard to look in ME 1 (and more closely resembles how I draw her) but the creation options were much more limited. ME 2's creation was only slightly improved (here's hoping ME 3's creation is more like "Dragon Age 2" :D

I've already read that Ashley/Kaiden may be a regular squadmate again, so I already have my saves set. My first imported game had Kaiden survive (and probably the first one I'll use for ME 3). For my Sentinel I imported a save where Ashley survived :D Other than that the saves are identicle, Liara was my girlfriend in both :love:

Oh, snap! I just realized, my Sentinel playthough was long before I got any of the DLCs :omg: Oh, well, that's as good a reason as any to playthrough my Sentinel a second time ;P

**Sidenote - I did use the "Meet Wilson" glitch for unlimited paragon/renagade points (I like having all paragon/renegade dialogues available during the same playthrough.

....

And I want Shepard's scars to remain visable ;p

The "Meet Wilson" glitch... doesn't that take along the lines of four hours to complete?

I'm sure you can cut that time down to three and a half if you install the first disc ;p Which I hadn't :hmm: But you only need to do it just once (Well, I had to do it a second time when I recreated my Shepard ;p ). And I only did it to fill up the first two boxes of the paragon/regegade meters. And it's much faster if you make your Shepard a "Champion" which give you 100% more points ;) I wouldn't even bother with this glitch (which I don't think has been patched) if we were allowed to carry our points over into the next playthrough (like they were in ME 1) instead they're reset back to zero :omfg:

The differences are very very subtle, but I have to say, I like the top image as a more true human face, the bottom one just gives me bad vibes.

Well, then it works because Shepard's a bad ass ;p

You changed her eyes from blue to brown?

Also, gotta love Liara, she's so cute and shy.

No, her eyes are still blue, it just doesn't show in this photo.
