A loose cannon, racist and prejudiced against humanity because of his brother who died in First Contact. Ends justify the means, though unlike TIM, his is more direct and personal. If there was ever a turian-equivalent of Cerberus, he'd be The Illusive Turian. ( with extra hatred towards humanity )

He changed after realizing Sovereign's true power, but he was.

i only played the game but didn't Saren want to save all the races? he said if we served them they might spare us or something.

Kyero: Once the Reapers destroyed and stamped out organic civilization, it would leave.

However, before said destruction they would thoroughly indoctrinate species. Once they leave, they will starve and die because they aren't being fed commands by their 'overlords'.

Saren's ideology was somewhat affected by Sovereign, by the way. So it's possible that logic was twisted, Kyero.

Keroko · 2010-02-17, 09:11

The idea Saren had was to become indispensable to the Reapers, help that would make them lose more than they'd gain if they killed them.

Flawed logic that Sovereign didn't disagree with at all, but that's indoctrination for you.

I did play the game. Dame it, I know

~~Arbitres~~ · 2010-02-17, 12:14

Then that question was pretty pointless. Saren's logic was flawed due to sovereign...

Let's drop it, since this is ME2, not ME1. If Saren popped up (alive, mind you) I'd thoroughly be pissed off. I made it quite thoroughly obvious he was a thorn in my renegades side, and a thorn should be removed. (My paragon was like a negotiator of sorts.)

Talking about Renegade and paragons... What are you guys? I'm now starting my second Renegade character (Female, actually. DAMN is she great, Vanguard too. Though it feels kinda weird from the first game.)

Keroko · 2010-02-17, 12:58

Renegade male shep so far. I need to play ME1 with a femshep and save the council before I go down the paragon path with one.

I didn't know saren had a brother and thats why he was racist. thats it, everything else i knew. his plans.. what happened to his plans and how he was mind fucked by Sovereign

he didn't mention he only wanted turians to be saved.

Renegade FemShep. I love options to simply start shooting rather than talk something through or just say something mean.

My favourite line from the original is on the Citadel and the C-Sec officer is trying to reason with the Hanar preacher.

C-Sec: Why can't this Hanar listen to reason?

FemShep: Because it's a bit stupid jelly fish! *punches one hand into the other*

-KarumA- · 2010-02-19, 19:34

silly question, I saw that some femsheps had a different hairstyle one that I am unable to use (PC version here)
Is this like an Xbox thing or unlockable for PC as well?

for example this hairstyle

Spoiler:

Such custom hairstyles are made possible through the third-party Gibbed Saved Editor, which allows you to modify just about every parameter of your game's save file to your liking, whether it be changing hairstyles on your character, adding crewmates out of order anytime, even changing your character's gender.
