Leviathan and Omega In One Night

Good morning everyone

Last night's stream of Mass Effect 3 was certainly DLC heavy as we tackled both the Leviathan and Omega story arcs.

Leviathan is certainly great in terms of all the extra lore that gets added in terms of who or what created the Reapers, not to mention the reason why behind their creation. There are a few great character moments, not to mention how some things can be addressed or handled that could make Shepard seem obsessive... most notably when Ann Brynson is linked to the Leviathan with the goal of tracking it down. I never take the option of breaking the connection, because I don't feel it fits Shepard's character. On a side note, With the added systems included with the Leviathan DLC, some have extra items that make getting the Shepard lives ending if one is not doing the multiplayer or galaxy at war options.

That said, I do prefer the Omega DLC overall, because it's shorter and self contained that allows the player to get to influence (or encourage) Aria in the liberating of Omega. Nyreen Kandros is a great character that helps flesh our Aria's past a bit, and I do find General Oleg Petrovsky to be a likeable villain. I was lucky that the in story side quests were not glitched on this play through, resulting in getting a ll the achievements for it. Of course the final part where we have to free Aria while running around and avoiding enemies that can pounce on you and get 'shields' if the pylons ar active can fuck right off.

At this point, the next time we play Mass Effect 3, it'll be the Quarian / Geth story arc taking center stage... and if I remember right, I screwed up badly in my Mass Effect 2 play through so that means Legion will end up getting killed. Once that's done, Santuary would be next... and then the Citadel DLC, which will be epic for all the right reasons.

On a side note, after the stream I did more multiplayer stuff in Mass Effect 3, playing as an Engineer to try and grind out the Overloads needed for its corresponding achievement. This lead to the Explorer achievement being unlocked.

The Double Standard of the GOP when it comes to Hilary Clinton's emails and Donald Trump taking an obscene amount of documents to hide his wrong doing is hilarious. And with how so many Trump supporters are calling for a Civil War over this, that is basically proof that each and every one of them are traitors and should be treated as such.
