Alright. who here is a fan of the mass effect series?
...Come on now. dont be shy. Or i WILL let wrex start eating people for lying!
Kidding kidding. im a paragon.
-
I hear a lot about Mass Effect. I have been dieing to try that out. I am a fan but I have never played.
-
Its great, and worth every penny. if you get the chance, play them both.
Mass effect one saves WILL carry over too, so if you can, beat ME1 first.
...its gonna be a trilogy, and its going to be awesome.
-
Ive heard about that as a main thing. I have never heard a game do that before. seems aweosme!
-
Thats just like... one of the three things it does.
The suicide mission in ME2 made the HSQ (linked to tv troupes) Just go though the roof.
and its, just as a game, near perfect. the characters are great, the story is epic and its in a beautifully thought out universe. (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HolyShitQuotient?from=Main.HSQHSQ[/url)

i played through mass effect 2 and i really enjoyed it
-
How'd the Suicide mission go, without spoiling anything/whiting it out? *Everyone lived here*
-
it was meeeeean! :/
-
...i'll take it people died?
Mordin, someone from the swarm and a lack of ship upgrade?
-
umm some if i recall
half the crew and 2 squad members
-
Ahhhhhhhh. *Pat on the head*
Guess you went straight for the IFF?

ME1 was a rough diamond. It had loads of potential and had loads of issues. The writing was strong and some points, painful at others. It moments of brilliant pacing and drama, and moments of bizarrely contrived ideas, but I enjoyed it and was interested in a sequal.
I wouldn't say ME2 was near perfect, there are plenty of things I don't like (tedious planet scanning, uninspired safety net boss battle, Liari T'soni [but then I never liked her], backpeddling on the homosexual romance), but I will say that it was solid, the writing was great, the pacing was strong and it built to a brilliant, emotional climax. It's a wonderful game that missed the mark just slightly in my opinion, and the twisting multiple storylines that span games are definitely a great achievement.
-
Agreed... though, i really didnt have to planet scan much, or from what it felt like >D
And i agree with some of the ME1 issues. but in the world they set it up in, it works. *Shrug*
-
MASS EFFECT FOR THE WIN!!!

I loved the part where Tali Zorah Vas Normandy saw her dead father and started to cry (i almost cried too, Tali is awesome)
then I went Paragon and gave her a hug..
Then I told the Admiralty Board off and now Tali is swooning for a piece of da Gabag
-
Heh. not the only one there who did that... The only time i wished i could of done the renegade responce... aw well.
And no kidding talis awesome. Had her and garrus as much as i could >D

Just beat Mass Effect 2 Playthrough 1
Everyone Survived surprisingly
even the Normandy Crew Members
Like Chakwas and Kelly
-
Thats because you:
A.got all ship upgrades.
B.most/everyone's loyalty. (the minimum is 4, but choices have to be on the mark.)
C.Went straight in after you know what.
D.Made Smart decisions for squads and specialists.
E.The unknown variable when people 'hold the line' is good enough to hold whilst you kick some reaper butt. (when the 'defence' is greater then the 'attack', no one dies. if its lower, someone dies and if its TOO low, they all die. in order from unloyal to loyal. some people are better then this at others... and loyalty matters here too.)
and chakwas always lives, except if she doesn't get an escort back to the normandy.
-
Well I wanna tell my squad member choicer but I feel it'll spoil too much, so i'll pm them
-
Alright. i'll reply with mine. little busy as of the moment so give me a few XD
