Why pick udina

Additionally, Anderson or Udina have so little focus in Mass Effect 2 that even then the decision feels lackluster to most fans. If Anderson is placed on the Council in Mass Effect 1 , he will offer Shepard verbal support in Mass Effect 2 during their meeting with the Council - however, this has little impact on actual gameplay, as he provides no real bonuses to Shepard's mission.

The only real benefit to his support is the fact that, regardless of the fate of the original Council members in ME1 , Shepard can have their Spectre status reinstated by Anderson in ME2. However, this is about all Anderson does in the second game, and before the events of the third game he will leave the role regardless of any player actions and hand the title over to Udina.

If Udina is chosen in ME1 , he will remain relatively hostile to Shepard up through Mass Effect 3 - choosing him over Anderson does not seem to improve his disposition, and there are no real bonuses for cooperating with him. This also means that he will not reinstate Shepard's Spectre status in the second game. By ipgd - Sun Jul 03, am. By neubourn - Sun Jul 03, am. Shepard said "i dont forget being stabbed in the back," so i picked Anderson just to spite Udina.

Sure Anderson may not be experianced in politics, but in my mind, that's a good thing, as I would rather not have politics get in the way more than it needs to in me3. George-Kinsill Status: Offline. If you read the books in one of them think it's the first one you learn the councillors are very politically savy, and have to be on their toes in that regard.

Having Anderson as councillor would be like have Shepard as councillor, he would be excellent militarily but the rest of the council would run political and metaphorical rings round him.

The impacts of Shepard's choice aren't felt until Mass Effect 2. Anderson isn't entirely comfortable with the role if he was appointed; however, he does his best to help Shepard's fight against the Reapers.

Udina throws Shepard under the bus outright and leads the council to ignore the Reaper threat. The unfortunate thing is that no matter what the player chooses, by Mass Effect 3, Udina will have been given the role of Councilor and Anderson will have been removed from the board.

While this choice is made up to be a big one at the end of Mass Effect 1 , its widespread ramifications aren't particularly deep.

If you're looking for him, Peter can usually be found dropping hot in Apex Legends with his friends. This changes minor dialogue around Shepard's rank and powers. If you saved the original council, they will re-appoint Shepard as a Spectre if you wish , against Udina's wishes. If you choose Anderson for the Council: Anderson remains a strong ally to Shepard in ME2, though his support is basically verbal and little else.

Regardless of the fate of the original alien council members, Anderson will reinstate Shepard's Spectre status when you check in with him in ME2.

Anderson clearly isn't very happy in the Councilor role, and will quit and be replaced by Udina before the events of ME3.
