where an impoverished young woman is trying to sell herself into slavery and the game presents the most ethical outcome as helping her negotiate a better contract for her indentured servitude?

Looking back those games were Fukuyama'd as shit, jfc

    It doesn't help that the good route gives you the best outcome 99% for the time whereas playing solid renegade screws you over significantly more.

    I mean I don't exactly mind because I like to play the starry eyed optimist paragon protag that tries to save everyone possible, good or bad, but there's seriously only a single instance where playing that character actually screws you over, and it takes place in an offscreen news email in ME3.

    Well I guess this is probably better than rewarding you for killmurdering and saying that doing a hecking genocide was actually the correct choice (though that doesn't stop Bioware fans from frequently arguing that anyways...)
