I'm also playing the series. I made three characters.
- Dolan Shepard, male, colonists, sole survivor, vanguard, paragon 65%/renegade 35%. Good guy. Only makes renegade choices as a last resort.
- Donna Shepard, female, spacer, war hero, engineer. Goody two-shoes. 100% paragon. Perfectionist.
- Dohn Shepard, male, earthborn, ruthless, infiltrator, cold calculated. 25% paragon/75% renegade. 'The ends justify the means'. Despite his renegade nature, he still has high morals and won't make greedy/selfish decisions. He genuinely believes his decisions to be for the greater good.
As far as mass effect 5 is concerned, they should explore dark energy more and how it serves to held the next big antagonist and possibly Shepard in defeating the next bbeg. It would be cool if dark energy was made more important.
