MASS EFFECT 1 DATA SHOULD CARRY OVER TO ME2!

[soloist]

Fans eagerly awaiting Mass Effect 2 have poured countless hours into Mass Effect 1, as multiple playthroughs can significantly beef up your Shepard in hopes that your machine-of-a-man (or woman) could be ported over to the sequel. So what's the word? Well, the new platinum version of Mass Effect contains a documentary in which Bioware states that the date 'should' transfer over. Kotaku:

More interestingly, though, the documentary mentions that BioWare wants the DLC to tie into Mass Effect 2. Does that mean we get to carry over our character from Mass Effect to Mass Effect 2?

"Any saved game that you make from Mass Effect 1 you should be able to carry that same character into to Mass Effect 2," says the video at about 1:45. "You'll be able to take that save game and create a character in Mass Effect 2."

I'm not sure if I really care or not if my Shepard will come over or not.

I wonder though how much of your attributes and items will be carried over. Interesting though! Either way, I'll be into that sequel for sure!

I'm thinking the every decision and statistical data
attribute will carry over with the game adjust-
ing specified A.I patterns and logic based
on how powerful your character is and
what skills that they've developed.
Multiple play-through characte-
rs should be rewarded with
additional skills or wea-
ponry... maybe eve-
n exclusive ships.
Just an idea, b-
ut it would b-
e a good o-
ne, so I
