If you're new: Your Choices Matter is a mod in the making for the original version of Mass Effect 3 (for now) that expands your repertoire of dialogue options for Commander Shepard, and adds more narrative control of your character, aka Roleplaying, than the original game. It also contains other touches like increased amount of Full Cinematic Conversations on your ship and the Citadel, and better transitions for characters between starting and ending conversations. It also offers some new choice ramifications but that's very up in the air, as to how far I can go with it.Context For This Video: I've made this video, comparing a full scene between the original game and with my YCM mod installed, to squash some misconceptions, hopefully.

I often get the impression that I haven't clearly communicated what Your Choices Matter Mod is meant to do, so here's a reintroduction, and a more comprehensible comparison of how an individual scene is expanded with more player interaction - a general gist of how conversations flow in YCM. This is my mod's main purpose. When it's ready, I plan to compare the other things I've changed, mainly the Normandy and availability of Full Conversations, and how that flows.

I also get frequent questions of all sorts. I'll just list a few:

*FAQ*

Q: Wtf, this looks no better than the original game. Some "Legendary Edition" remaster, huh BioWare?
A: I'm not BioWare and you're looking at a mod for a game that released on pc in 2012, not Legendary Edition.

Q: Won't this just reveal how much you DON'T have choices in ME3?
A: Different schools of roleplaying, I suppose. I played Mass Effect to enjoy the way my dialogue wheel choices direct my character and put me in their shoes. The increase in auto-dialogue (shepard speaking with no choice inputs) and complete omission of the middle, neutral, options killed my buzz for ME3. BioWare's gesture-driven cinematic look okay, but not compared to other AAA titles, even at the time in 2012. The less their cinematics are driven by player interaction the more it sticks out when the writing isn't great or the animations look stupid. Conversations are (part of) the main attraction of Mass Effect. That's why I'm making these seemingly unnecessary changes, which someone like me will appreciate.

Q: I've played this game over 20 times and there's ZERO difference! You're a liar and you aren't even making mods. These are fake.
A: I don't know what to tell you. Watch it again?

Q: When is this coming out?
A: When I think it's done. I don't wanna hold myself to a deadline, but I'd say it's like 35% complete in terms of how much content I've touched, and how much there is left to touch. My speed of work really varies week by week. Sometimes I've taken breaks from it for months, and sometimes I've gotten the majority of what I've shown made in less than 2 months. There's also dozens of scenes I have not shown. I don't share everything. My hope is to entice people with what I show, and then the real surprises come from replaying ME3 with YCM installed, and seeing scenes, that you thought you knew, take slightly different turns.

Q: Will you change the ending?
A: There is a c--...

Q: Will YCM be compatible with [Insert Favorite Mods]
A: I hope so, and I want it to be. Presumably yes.

Q: Will you make this for Legendary Edition
A: I hope so and I want to, but for now I simply don't know if it's even possible. It won't happen immediately.
