![]() ![]() ![]() For the first time, I didn’t, and it created a conflict between what my conscience and the game wanted. The trying part of Zaeed’s mission is that we’re supposed to want everyone’s loyalty. I could even see past Ashley’s xenophobic ways because I knew her upbringing influenced it, and there was a chance she could change. But Zaeed? I know getting betrayed and shot in the face must have sucked, but I’ve never had a character’s actions repulse me so much that there was no chance for redemption. For instance, Jack has a tough exterior from being experimented on at a young age. Now, if you have enough paragon points you can talk some sense into Zaeed and still gain his loyalty, but I was so repulsed that I wanted nothing to do with the jerk.Īnd this is why this loyalty mission is brilliant usually we find redeeming qualities in the majority of BioWare’s characters, and here we’re thrown a curveball. But that showed Zaeed’s true colors, because he didn’t second-guess his actions or show any remorse. Of course, I chose to save the people, which angered Zaeed because it caused him to miss his confrontation with Vido. Who wants a soldier who won’t take accountability for his actions? I don’t care how awful Vido is, those innocent people should not become casualties in the name of revenge. In this brief moment, I knew everything I needed to know about Zaeed. Instead of doing the noble thing and saving those that he’s trapped, Zaeed urges you to press on and leave them to die so he can have his vengeance. As a way to trap his nemesis, Zaeed starts a facility fire, which spreads, trapping many innocent people. In Zaeed’s mission, he’s after his ex-business partner, Vido Santiago, who shot him in the face. Zaeed is the antithesis of what my Shepard stands for: he clings too tightly to grudges and fails to see the bigger picture. Minor spoilers ahead, read at your own risk. But something interesting happened Zaeed’s mission: I wavered in my mission and questioned whether I’d gone too far. I even maxed out my paragon meter just so nobody would get left behind. I gladly helped anyone that came along, if it meant I had a better chance for surviving the suicide mission. Up until then, Shepard’s goals were simple: gain the loyalty of as many shipmates as possible so they’d risk their lives to save the galaxy. Traveling to Zorya was the first mission to change the rules. Do I find Zaeed’s loyalty mission absolutely brilliant? You bet I do. He had potential, but BioWare never tapped into it, and his loyalty mission didn’t exactly win him supporters. Now don’t get me wrong I’m not endorsing Zaeed as a strong character in fact, I find him weakly-written. I vividly remember dropping my controller, filled with conflicting emotions.
