Notes on the Shenko Reunion and Mods Installed
Welcome back Kaidan, I shot Udina so you didn’t have to.
EGM puts these amazing Spectre armors in for Shepard and Kaidan.  They both look amazing.  They’re gonna be my defaults for both of them once the coup is over from here on out (that’s when you acquire the armors). Â
I love, love having the FemShep’s closet mod installed being able to change my Shepard’s casual outfit to one of SEVERAL good-looking outfits. And I love this dress on her, perfect for a nice date night outfit. If I was doing texture mods right now I’d have put Kaidan in a nice shirt and slacks, but that’ll be for next playthrough when I’ve got ALOT installed. Â
And although it does take exiting the game and removing / replacing some folders in the BIOGAME folder, it’s still pretty easy to swap out FemShep’s hairstyle. I picked this “smoothed out but still medium length” hairstyle as Shepard’s Date Night Hair, and it worked well. I’m back to adventuring now and she has her “messy medium hair” back on. Â
I think this is my 3rd playthrough since BackOff came out. I honestly am forgetting some of the changes it makes because honestly, BackOff makes the game feels so much more like it’s supposed to, so I’m forgetting about some of the things I didn’t like without it. I just know that BackOff makes whoever your LI is feel like that’s the way it’s meant to be, not like “Hey shouldn’t you REALLY be romancing James/Garrus/Liara/Whoever it is you’re not with? It’s ok to watch Traynor shower in her undies even if you’re friends, right?” etc etc. So every interaction with who your LI is feels like you’re going in the right direction so much more. I can’t imagine playing without it ever again.
Now can someone just mod out that Salarian and human in that face-touching angle on the date? :p
I believe it’s also BackOff Nope looks like it’s EGM (thanks Neph) that adds the cabin picture in (and it comes with an email from EDI explaining that she did it as a “congratulations on the sex” gift, haha.) And then three different “invite your LI to hang out in the cabin” quick scenes. They’re just small things, but they make such a huge difference. She’s even wearing a different outfit for those screenshots, thanks Femshep’s Closet.
I can’t wait to get through this playthrough, confirm the game is more or less stable and hopefully install ALOT and play through again for videos and good screenshots.
