Stop trolling kraidy. This is about the OPs opinion that ME1 executed the squad better than ME2, not about your quote mining and trolling skills.

Why oh why do people keep thinking that the recruitment and loyalty missions don't qualify as "dialogues" for these characters?Dinkamus_Littlelog wrote...

Garrus and Tali had only 4-5 dialog parts in ME. Liara has only three if you don't romance her. Nice job at failing Dink.
Nice job at failing, because BOTH of those are more than what you get out of them in ME2. You get TWO dialogues out of Tali and Garrus in ME2. Nice job at failing and trolling kraidy.
Perhaps because you dont count the ME1 characters huge amounts of dialogue in their recruitment and plot sensitive or side mission related content?
Liara has plenty of unique dialogue on Noveria. I see that gets glossed over.
Besides, most of the dialogue is sparingly sprinkled throughout combat sections in almost all loyalty missions.
Wrex has unique dialog too or did you forget to point that out? All loyal missions for each character have tons of dialog. I love how I am called a troll from you and some of the other people yet I am not even close to one, hell I post alot and don't lurk around in the ME2 hate threads or Liara board. I go everywhere. You just come out of your cave when threads like this come up so you can get a rise out of people.

Not trolling, it is only trolling when my intention to get get a riseo ut of people, I am in fact showing people that YOU are a troll and love to make people mad. Go back to your cave and worship Liara.

Get back on topic kraidy, if you can. Ive agreed with the OP, and youve come in trolling.
Funny that its only you I seem to end up arguing with. Even jeanluc kept this about the squad.
Youre off topic trolling has derailed yet another thread. Well done trollboy.
Im done with you.

well, I've had enough of this thread. It's been proven time and time again that fans will not simply agree to disagree and I'm sorry for even getting involved in it.
I'll go back to my opinion that ME2 is better in almost every way, and I'll allow people their opinion that ME1 was better.
End my part of the debate.

Hmm guys I think Dnk needs to know what a troll is, becuase he refuses to read what I have said what a troll is. A troll does not meaning derailing a thread. This boared would be so much better if trolls like you where gone.

kraidy, you might want to tone it down a little.
As I said, I found the ME2 team generally superior, probably because of the increased insight via the loyalty missions and better animations. But really, ME is a more "realistic" game and ME2 is closer to a comic book. You might as well compare Saving Private Ryan to The Dark Knight.

Tali always wins no matter what, and Tali and Garrus where in ME2, so you can't realy count them.

For me, the difference appeared to be that ME1 squad mates were written for interaction on board the ship, with the romances interspersed through conversations, while the ME2 squad mates were developed mainly to be interacted with during their recruitment mission and loyalty missions, and once they're on the ship, if you are not romancing the characters, their conversation options are extremely limited and boring.
For the people who enjoy ME2 more than ME1, can you honestly tell me that the characters you like in ME2 are just as developed if you are not romancing them, as when you are? I have not romanced any of the ME2 characters, and ME2 feels pretty empty and lonely because of it. Each character's recruitment or loyalty mission may be fun, but they are woefully short, and don't really mesh together into a full story for me. I feel like I'm playing a bunch of DLC packs in ME2, with the story mashed into the beginning and end, while ME1 flowed as a whole more cohesively.
It may be a matter of opinion, but it's a fact that you are shut out of a lot of dialogue with squad mates in ME2, if you are the wrong sex or not romancing them. It's sad when hanging out with Joker in the cockpit was more stimulating than entire dialogue trees with my squad.

Seriously why can't you guys avoid personal attacks? is it too hard? I fyou don't like a post, or the way someone responds to you, then ignore it! Gawd . . .
Anyway, I think there were ME squadmates from both games that were 'developed' better than other ones, but much of this is preference, too. Garrus and Tali in ME1 were very well written, and I think the same holds for Tali in ME2, but Garrus, not so much. That's sad, really, because unless you romance him, he's too busy calibrating.
That's why I don;t think heor a few others were developed well. There was so much more they could have done with his character. Same with Liara in her cameo. Another favorite, beloved character turned so many off because she was poorly developed in ME2. Just because her character gets a role in a comic book doesn't mean that they get to skimp her cameo like that.
On the flipside, some characters were done very well. Thane, Samara, Mordin, and Miranda come to mind.
