If I got a dollar for every time I ran into a fic of 100% paragon Shepard, I would be rich. And for your information: 100% paragon Shepard is pretty much an epitome of a Mary Sue.

How so? (I mean, I get that paragon Shepard hits the lawful good target pretty hard, but she can be written and played as neither a self insert nor an overpowered, universally admired hero.)

Considering how hard Shepard gets screwed for the first two games, and how much the last game is simply a tired struggle to not totally die, I'm not seeing it.

Part of the bias is because YOU are the driving element of the plot. It's not a very interesting quest that involves watching someone else make all the decisions and fight all the bad guys.

But within the context of a video game world, I don't think Shepard is a Mary Sue at all.

This. I don't understand why people don't get that.

I thought everyone was a 100% Renegade Shepard who had threesomes with Zaeed and Garrus.

No, wait, that was just me.
