Mass Effect 3: Character deaths

Legion’s Death 

The second saddest death. Farewell Legion, I had you in my squad for all of about 10 minutes at the end of Mass Effect 2.

Kaidan’s Death (yay!)

I chose to kill Kaidan so quick in Mass Effect 1 I didn’t even hear all the different options. But, if I had known I could have the honor of putting him down personally two games later, I might have given up Ashley instead. Might be worth another playthrough….

Ashley’s Death

So, at this point, it’s possible to be stuck with only EDI and James Vega, assuming the rest of the other playable characters died as mentioned above or in Mass Effect 2’s suicide mission. If you downloaded the From Ashes DLC, you’d also have Javik, but three characters are not a whole lot to fight alongside you in the final battle against the Reapers.

Samara’s Death

Whatever happened to Kelly Chambers?

I wasn’t especially attached to Kelly Chambers in Mass Effect 2, but just hearing her execution described out of the blue was a bit of a shock. Having watched plenty of 24 and Battlestar Galactica, I can imagine it clearly in my head, and it really puts the horrendous actions of Cerberus into perspective.
