BioWare: Mass Effect 2 Trailer is "Absolutely True"

[RebelRising]

Why is everybody assuming we play as Shepard throug the entire game? He might die at the start. Or we might not play as him at all.

I suspect it will be like Kotor 2, where your savegame affects the backstory.

Because Bioware said the entire trilogy would follow Shepard?

EDIT:

Me too, and I can't wait. But did you notice anything interesting? Because Tali is definitely there at one point; Nassana (as in Dantius) is mentioned.

Refresh my memory, if you would; is that Nassana, as in the "Yarr! My sister be a space pirate! Yarr!" Nassana, or a different one? As in, the one that gives you an Assignment to 'rescue' her sister when it is really to kill her.

Yep, that's her, Nassana Dantius, the diplomat ***** with the pirate sister.

"Diplomat *****"? Haha, you don't mince words. I suspect that there is more to her than meets the eye, because she was still acting suspicious after you confronted her with the truth.

Guys, Mass Effect 2 is super serious.

Not suspicious as such, just trying to make sure the news didn't get out. Awfully cold about her sister though.
