On the surface it appears to be a straightforward choice as there are only 2 questions with 3 options each to choose from so how bad can it be right? Consider the following for each character you create:

One of the ways you experience the unique voice acting is through your first major decision (aside from choosing a first name) when creating your character is deciding what their back story and pysch profile will be prior to the events of Mass Effect 1.

I will regularly update the guide with the best spoiler-free feedback so if you prefer you can avoid this section until you complete the game. As a result all readers especially new players should use caution when reading guide comments if they wish to completely avoid potential spoilers.

Please Note: Now that the guide has been out for several months now I noticed that despite my best efforts some spoilers are making their way into the comments section. I have received a lot of great feedback so far and I have been adjusting my guide with some of the best suggestions as time allows. Thank you all for taking an interest in my guide and I hope any of the tips here help you enjoy Mass Effect 1 to its fullest potential. As I come up with more ideas I will add to the guide and of course any helpful feedback I receive on how to improve the guide I will incorporate as well. I made sure to give you as much advice as possible for character creation since this is perhaps the most crucial point where this advice is needed and then some tips to help ensure you continue to enjoy the game to its climactic finish. This guide will be organized into four main parts, character creation, character progression, main quest and general gameplay. I will also make some spoiler-free suggestions to parts 2 and 3 of the Trilogy where it will be helpful.īy now this game has been out a long time now and while there's already plenty of guides online with the new Steam Guides feature I felt it would benefit at least the Steam community have a quick beginner guide to help get you started with this great game. My tag is sinewav and the purpose of this guide is to help any players new to the Mass Effect 1 world have a good foundation of spoiler-free knowledge to have a better first experience with this game or who just wants some helpful pointers. Welcome to my Steam Guide for Mass Effect.
