MASS EFFECT paragon or renegade???

I've started playing Mass Effect recently, but not sure which route to go down paragon or renegade.

I prefer being a renegade but being nice appears to have more bonus is this the case or should i stick to being bad???

Advice plz.......

Stick with the one you've picked, then replay the game going for Paragon.cr4zychri5

What he said, and renegade is so much more fun anyways.

do you get any benifits from replaying it6ftUmpaLumpa

half the achievements require you to play through it 2-3 times

I like the mentality of gunning for the greater good, and therefore I would probably not waste my time with most of the paragon actions, or many of the renegade ones, for that matter.

Color me "gray".

A trillion lives spanning numerous species of an galactic empire are in danger.....and I'm asked to help some guy find his daughter or whatever.....

Attempting a departure from the good/evil/lawful/chaotic D&D-inspired matrix in their previous games, BioWare created the ethical system in Mass Effect to allow you to be both a Paragon and a Renagade. I'm pretty sure you can do both; correct me if I'm wrong here. More to the point, it's a role-playing game: Do whatever you'll have more fun doing.

Do you get anything for playing it the first time? Gaming's not a terribly productive hobby. Define "benefits."

Pick one and then play again!

I did paragon though

Play trough the game at least 3 times :)

1. Paragon/Renegade

2. Renegade/Paragon

3. Whatever you feel like, depending on the situation.

I got both the achievments in the same playthrough. Dunno if you can do it until you got pretty major Charm/Intimidate stats though. Anyways, I was a renegade until about halfaway through, then got the paragon right at the end after talking down a certain someone else who we dont like very much.cheames748

Ah ha! I thought you could do both. I maxed my Paragon pretty early on, and ended the game with my Renegade about halfway. There were a lot of times though, that I got Paragon points when it was already maxed. I had assumed that if I gained Renegade points in those instances, I could eventually max them both out.

cheers everyone, never expected such a good response.

I'm on peak 15 now so thanks again..

Whatever you get a kick out of to be honest. Renegade tends to have more hilarious outcomes but choose whichever onemakes you feel better.

I always go with paragon, i'm a nice guy :P
