Reference - Walkthrough Playlists

There are tons of ME walkthroughs on youtube; I picked this particular one because they cut out as much of the combat as possible and is broadly similar to my 'canon' runthrough.

Mass Effect
Playlist - Paragon Femshep run. Romances Kaidan.

Mass Effect 2
Playlist - Imports the Shepard from the previous playthrough. Goes on to do a strictly Paragon run of the game + all DLC. Romances Garrus.
