Mass Effect Trilogy
I guess that's possible, but only if they switched up all the naming conventions. Shep is a Commander, which is a grade-5 officer ("O5") in a naval service (Navy, Coast Guard). The weird part is that Alenko is a Major, which is an O4 in a land-based service. I suspect that they just picked the titles that sounded coolest. Also, naval O4 is "Lieutenant Commander," so Bio probably thought it'd be confusing to have 2 folks called "Commander" around the ship. I made a huge thread about this on BSN last year, it didn't go well. For one thing, there was one guy that kept arguing that it was totally possible that in the future left handed salutes are totally appropriate despite the fact that it was just one guy that did it on board the Normandy in ME2 at an inappropriate moment. He couldn't get it through his head that right handed salutes are so ingrained in military culture in every single military in the world (even the N. Koreans) that it would never change. But nop, I was a silly fascist. I never wanted to punch someone in the **** so hard.

Mali Civil War and the Western Intervention
No individual should feel ashamed of what their government does, unless they support it- in which case they won't feel ashamed anyway- as there's nothing any individual can do. Do you feel ashamed of your government's wholesale and unconditional support of Mugabe, having the worst war since WW2 (that's Congo, minimum 20x the deaths of Syria and still rising) practically on your doorstep, your police shooting strikers, your cricket team losing to New Zealand of all people, because you shouldn't unless you condone them. You'd also get a very long list of all the times leaders killing their own people is perfectly fine, because the leader happens to be supported by the West and uses the dehumaniser du jour- communist, terrorist, anarchist whateverist the current boogeyman ist. Terrorist right now.

Gods in Eternity
If they're just beings that have appropriated power and belief, then why not? The word "god" doesn't have to be an unstoppable thing.

It's foreign cause Christians aren't doing it anymore, although there's a bit of regression these days, but still.

Mass effect Trilogy
Lol Carth Jenkins was just being silly though, Ash sacrificed herself. The Normandy lost it's XO during the collector attack, thankfully the Memorial acknowledges that.

Male/Female+Classes, Lore
No. Wizard doesn't mean exclusively male anymore. Barbarian means the type of culture. Amazon is a pseudo-legendary culture of dominant woman. It's not the female version of barbarain Priest = Priestess Paladin = Paladin

Hard to believe this is the same place Mansa Munsa used to rule. Anyways, those extremists have to go.

I dont know, my advice, make the decisions how you want them, but by Rannoch you should have one of those bars 3/4 full for a certain decision.

What things do you NOT want in Project Eternity?
Still doesn't quite cut it though, that's a prop and they're still trying to highlight her "figure". That scale "dress" couldn't stop a wooden sword. Found this on Google, it's about the most functional looking I saw amongst the hundreds of pictures of Xena. Still better than most though, nice find.
