Well, I think it's time for me to get it out of the way. I'm gonna do one last playthrough of Mass Effect 2 before the final game in the trilogy is released. I'm thinking about who I should let live or die (which seems to be the only thing that'll matter, considering Cerberus coming after Shepard trivialises the Collector base issue).
What about you guys? What sort of save do you intend to carry through to Mass Effect 3?

I'm planning on doing this too in a few months. I think I'll keep everyone alive. I like to see the way all the plotlines play out. I don't know whether to pick male or female Shepard, though. I almost always just pick the guy as default, but I really don't like Meer's voice. Hmm. Decisions. Definitely paragon, though. I don't like being mean.

I'm already completing 2 for the purposes of Mock Effect 2.

I did a really "comprehensive" playthrough during my second time playing. Luckily, it was also my import from ME1, so that one will probably be the one I'll continue in ME3. No one died, I blew up the Collector base, and I didn't romance anyone. Wrex is dead though, but I wasn't his biggest fan, anyway. xD

Booo! I would kill Anders ten times to get Wrex back!
As for the final playthrough... I think there will be two playthroughs for me before ME3. One is my old save file that has my Shepard romancing Liara. The other is purely for shits and giggles when playing as a renegade.
After the Arrival DLC, I think my main Shepard (Elly) story ends there for the moment, so I'll won't be going back for her till ME3 comes. And yes, Wrex lives in this save file.

I would kill Anders 10 times...just cause. Getting Wrex back would be a huge added bonus.

I'm thinking of sparing Garrus, Tali, Mordin, the Normandy crew, Legion and maybe Jacob (Don't wanna appear to be space-racist). It seems like having a good nine squad members (I'll probably recruit Morinth, then kill her during the suicide mission, just to rack up a higher body count) die would make my game fairly dramatic and unique.
Letting characters die because you don't like them is a pretty good feature. Liara's scheduled for a bullet sandwich in my first playthrough of Mass Effect 3.
Also, thanks for changing your avatar, Linders. That 2005 Shepard was creepy.

I just wanted to get a really kick ass one to replace it. Custom avatars are a little finicky so I don't like changing them much. I'll be keeping all my crew for my first playthrough on the possibility I might get more content out of the deal in ME 3. Once ME 3 is out I might be moved to do a ruthless Shepard campaign straight from the start and kill the more annoying tagalongs off. I'm weird like that. Of course a lot of this has to do with how good ME 3 is.

My canon bits are Rachni Queen is saved Saved the council (Wait untill I see the turian ouncil member's face hehe when the Reapers show up...) Legion 'saved' the herectics Wrex is alive. I blew up Ashely...the racist christian bin.... I had a thing for Liara, but went for Tali Everyone survived the suicide mission except Jack whom I let her die in four different ways. Yeh, i'm a jerk, but heeeeeey i saved the universe right?

Well I did my canon playthrough and I decided to let Miranda die this time. However beause of some bug every time I sent a tech guy to open the gate, he/she always get shot no matter the loyalty.
I had to start the final mission 4 fucking times for this! AND i lost Thane! Grrraaargh....
