First sorry for my grammar but english isn't my native langage ^^

It's not my first language either.

'''For the rachni if you were the queen, trapped in a tank and someone could kill our free you. 5s ago you heared an asari saying that someone took control of her mind. What would you say to Shepard? My Shepard couldn't trust her and wouldn't take the risk as she know what happend with the rachni the last time (and this time the galaxy doesn't have the krogan anymore). I (as a player) know after playing ME3 and reading this wiki that she told me the truth and was truthworthy.'''

Except that the Queen was very specific on her description of indoctrination. Had she said that only because of what she heard Benezia say, she would've just said "lulz im indoctrinated".

'''For Wrex I didn't play with him anyway (played an infiltrator with a team Tali+Garrus on insanity and it was fun) and my Shepard couldn't trust him on this. So once again she didn't take the risk and solve the issue with a bullet.'''

Well, I never played with Wrex either, but he was my bro nonetheless :) Anyway I understand if you say she couldn't trust him, but you did say before that you killed him because of insubordination. But, be straight with me, did you have the Charm/Intimidate options open for you?

'''Mordin said that he ran some simulation and all came to the same conclusion : war. As a player I know he was wrong, but my Shepard would take the risk.'''

You mean your Shepard wouldn't take the risk, right? Anyway, calculations can be faulty. ME3 proves that at least two times: if you cure the Genophage and Wrex in the clan leader and with the Catalyst.

But I saved the council in ME1 (soldier can die, as long as I do my job as a Specter).

IMO, that was a mistake. There's no way in hell that I would sacrifice lives to save those idiots. Although, the interaction with the original Council is funnier ("Take your offer and cram it up your *ss!").

So in short : my vision of a renegad Shepard is a Shepard willing to sacrifice the many if needed and refusing to take any risk that could come to some complication if you can "terminate" this "risk" right away.

Extreme ruthless, eh? I picked the Ruthless background for my Shep as well, but he never goes extreme like that. He thinks like this: "I'm willing to whatever it takes, but if a peaceful solution can be achieved, I'll do it. Oh, and I'm rude with politicians and with idiots."

BTW that's why I also liked the renegade control ending, where Shepard become the "strong leader" the galaxy need and "put an end to the bickering of the many".

Man, I watched a video on YouTube showing the Renegade speech for Control. I was always convinced that controlling the Reapers is bound to go sideways, but for a Renegade that's twice as worse. Just another reason for me not to pick Control.
