Morality System | Mass Effect 2 Wiki


Morality System in Mass Effect 2 is determined by Paragon And Renegade Meters. These meters track your choices throughout gameplay. The Paragon meter increases when your choices are noble, cooperative, or self-sacrificing. Paragons achieve their goals by doing the right thing in the right way. The Renegade meter increases when your choices are aggressive, selfish, or ruthless. Renegades achieve their goals by any means necessary.

Mass Effect 2 Conversation System

The cinematic, choice-based dialogue in Mass Effect 2 lets you fine-tune your character and story using the conversation wheel at the bottom of the screen. Choices on the wheel's left let you explore a conversation in-depth, while choices on the right tend to move the conversation to completion.

Paragon

The top of the wheel typically corresponds to the Paragon path, where your character makes selfless, cooperative decisions. The Paragon meter increases when your choices are noble, cooperative, or self-sacrificing. Paragons achieve their goals by doing the right thing in the right way.

Renegade

The bottom of the wheel generally corresponds to the Renegade path, where your character is more aggressive and hostile. The Renegade meter increases when your choices are aggressive, selfish, or ruthless. Renegades achieve their goals by any means necessary.

During Character Creation, you must be aware that there are ideal choices depending on whether you prefer to play a “good” Paragon, or a “bad” Renegade.

Dialogue options in Mass Effect 2 Missions

In Mass Effect 2, you interact with a lot of NPCs, Companions or Bosses through dialogue. Such dialogues can be useful sources of information regarding what to do and what is currently going on as well as massive revelations that can shake the foundations of the game. In some dialogues, you can choose mostly between two choices. A good-hearted, cooperative, self-sacrificing choice, nets you Paragon points, while a selfish, evil and violent one rewards you with Renegade points.

Below you can find all available dialogues where you can get either Paragon or Renegade points during your playthrough.
