Also, the way they use the old crew members is great. Reuniting with Liara and having her join your crew (and Garrus, obviously) is great. All the stuff that happens with Kaiden and him not trusting you due to your dealings with Cerberus is well done, I think. And the way they use ME2 crew members like Mordin and Thane where they are not a part of your crew but are working with you to accomplish goals until they sacrifice themselves for the cause is really affecting and well executed.

Why? Why did you have to mention those two? Now I'm going to have to take tomorrow off work to grieve.

As a side note, does anyone know which DLC is worth getting? I'm going to buy Citdal, because I never did go back and do that. But I think there's a few others, Leviathan and some other one, but I'm not sure if they're really worth spending the extra $25 for.

I certainly remember enjoying all the DLCs, for different reasons.

Citadel by itself I don't think was an amazing story. I seem to remember it feeling more like one of those investigation-type side quests. But there's a LOT of opportunities to get to know Shepard's friends and crew better, if you like that kind of thing.

Omega is super cool if you like Aria. And who doesn't, really?

Leviathan was definitely the standout for me. There are things in that story that made me feel very small and in awe in a way I hadn't felt since that first conversation with Sovereign. Do you remember this extremely intriguing snippet from a planet description way back in ME1?

"Jartar is noted for the discovery of the 'Leviathan of Dis,' the apparent corpse of a genetically engineered living starship. The Leviathan was found in the bottom of a crater by a batarian survey team, and estimated to be nearly a billion years old. It 'disappeared' after a visit to the system by a batarian dreadnought twenty years ago.

Since then, the batarians have steadfastly denied that the Leviathan existed at all – and all the more vociferously when shown recordings of the corpse made by salarian researchers. "
