Well since there was a possibility of Miranda getting killed in ME2, her role probably won't be big this time. Probably a cameo like the one with Wrex in ME2, or maybe a confrontation where you have the ability to kill her since she is a Cerberus loyalist afterall.

They'll probably all be "playable" as long as u dont get them killed or hated by them.

Addition to the list of details:
This preview mentions that 70% of people weren't faithful to their ME1 romance, and that this will come back to bite them.
TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."

That's lame. The other person (form ME1) chose to disown me when she saw me. I wasn't "unfaithful", I was dumped. So I moved on.

I think what Sabin means is that technically speaking, if you die in ME2, then YOUR Shepard's story is through/done. Unless you get a different ending or roll a new Shep, you can't continue in ME3.

Exactly! So the "suicide" mission means nothing, because if Shepard is dead then you can't import into ME3. So what's the point of having the choice/option if it's just going to be swept under the rug when you start ME3?

How would you handle it? Another bs resurrection? Or just have no way for Shepard to die? It is better than stupid Awakening where you could import your dead Warden and he was still alive.
At least this way there is some kind of consequence even though it's a lame metagaming one (can't import save).

It's not swept under the rug. You just start with a default Shepard, as you can't import the save-game. You don't seriously expect them to make a scenario to fit Shepard's death in the SM - new main character, crap-loads of other characters, etc.

I'd handle it by not having the possibility for Shepard to die. There's a good start.

Adding an option to kill the main character in a planned trilogy is bullshit anyway. Just like most choices in Bioware games, it's only an illusion of choice.

Yeah...that was shit but at least they added the possibility to play as a completely different Warden from Orlais.
Here... Shepard gets magically flown down from heaven by a magical unicorn no matter what you do(in case you kill the entire team). They could have introduced another possible Specter candidate throughout ME1 and ME2 if they weren't stumbling blindly in the dark without even them knowing wtf is going to happen next.
I understand you must be a complete dumb ass to kill Shepard at the end of ME2 but that would have made replaying the entire trilogy a very interesting possibility. As it stands now your choices only trigger a few side missions and reactions from other characters. I guess I'll have to wait and see how they all make a lasting impact in ME3.

The things is if you kill Shepard you killed Shepard. His choices die with him. Anyone who you play then in ME3 is not that Shepard, but "cannon Shepard".
It is supposed to be "a bad choice", that kills all your other choices.

Yes...so you actually create a temporal paradox? Or Arnold gets sent back in time to protect little Shepard? How the heck does that explain things?! Or will my dead Shepard appear in the next season of Fringe?
It's not like Mass Effect is like any other RPG (with the exception of a few other Bioware games) where you create an anonymous character from scratch. Killing him should have some greater repercussions than getting a hard reset story wise. So my decisions aren't worth shit in the Mass Effect universe and get overwritten by canon when EAWARE decides to dump the next title. And who the fuck decides what happened in the canon with so multiple variations.
Great....there goes the biggest driving factor for the entire Mass Effect franchise. Hurray!!

Nope, you just play new game with new character (not your Shepard), in no way related to previous story (that story ended when you got him killed).
If you want to experience full story in your own way, you need to have your actual character alive. Makes sense?

Makes me wonder if your trying to convince me or yourself. Read my posts again maybe you'll figure it out.
I'm criticizing the cheap way they've done it not how they've done it. It makes no sense to the story continuity.

There is no "canon" Shepard. Canon does not exist in Mass Effect. There is only a "default", created for non-import playthroughs. No decision is overwritten IF it is imported.

But there is not supposed to be any continuity. If you die in ME2, story ENDS. Just because you can play "3rd chapter" with "default" Shepard doesn't mean story from ME2/ME1 with heroic death continues. It ended with ME2, game over.

Then the choice meant nothing. Jesus... I think Predator is right; you're just trying to convince yourself. If you can have a "heroic death" at the end of ME2, yet still he lives in ME3 ... that just shows the choice is naught but illusion.

Heh... how it does not mean anything??? By choosing it, you can't benefit from playing that character, and enjoying his other choices in next game, since that character is DEAD. His story ended.
You can play other character, or replay ME from scratch, or play just ME2 or ME3, or do whatever else, but guy who dies in ME2 is dead. You killed your character and consequence is that you can't play ME3 with that character.
