u guys shouldn't think too much of the KIA thing. It will probably be if u dont have a ME save then the protaganist from ME will be dead so a new guy takes over. How else were they suppose to accomadate 4 those who didnt play ME?

 

The guy is someone you create nothing more, its like the nameless guy from the pokemon games you dont see nintendo killing him/her off every game.

 

It is a little bit different when the main character in questions didn't have predetermined plot points. What, was Bioware just suppose to geuss what you WOULD have said in the first game and just paste it into the second? They could possibly allow you to make some sort of answer check off list of some things you might have chosen from the first one, but that is tedious and would give away certain plot points of the first game(they do still want you to buy it).

I am not saying that the Main Character from ME will be dead for sure, but I don't think you will play with the same theoretical character if you don't have the ME save file. Bioware is known for trying to make seamless gameplay. Forcing a new player to have a set back history that they didn't choose or experience is not really their style.

They've talked a bit about how they're doing it. Basically, they are going to try and make it so that whatever decisions you made in the first game will be reflected in the sequel. You can read it here, but the money line is:

"Now obviously that has painted us into a difficult position, because we have multiple threads, multiple endings ... certain characters may or not be alive. It's created extra work for us but we felt it was necessary to really capture what we were going for in Mass Effect. The short answer of how we're going to deal with those decisions in Mass Effect 2, and going forward, is that we're creating alternate versions of all sorts of scenarios. We're almost creating, I hate to say 2 full games, but we're definitely creating more content that what a person will see on one playthrough."

 

 

All that is good and dandy but where does that leave the people I am talking about? The people who have not played ME so they do not have a save of the game. Especially seeing as it will probably(most likely as Bioware is now a EA property) a multiplatform title.
