Commander Shepard: for teaching me to never give up, never stop fighting, never stop helping others, and never let fear compromise who I am. You are my role model, and you are my hero.
Bioware: for giving me the best childhood one could have. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate this game that you have made. The huge variety of characters each has their own personal story and a lesson, which comes along with it. Mass Effect has given me a new view on the world, a new perspective. This game became a part of me, the characters became my friends, and the Reapers became my enemies. I grew up with Garrus, Wrex, Liara, Tali, Joker, and the rest of the crew. They are some of the most inspirational people I have ever seen, and they came from a video game. Once again, I thank you for everything. Mass Effect has given me so much in my life, like a safe-haven for when I was alone, mad, or frustrated. I could play the game ten times over (which I have) and still love it (and I do).
Thank you so much,
