I don't see how Cerberus can reanimate a corpse but they can't fix Joker's bones.

Fixing Joker's bones would cost a lot of money, and it's not their priority.

Thane Romance - the infamous "I want you Thane." line. I visibly cringed seeing that and almost aborted due to the fact I was afraid what Emily (my femshep) would say. Honestly, probably th biggest example of Dialog Wheel Dissonance ever.



Voice-Acting - For all the people complaining about Meer vs. Hale, they both have their strengths and weaknesses. Problem can be summed up as thus: Meer tends to be more stoic, which leads to him sounding rather stiff and unemotional. Hale tends to be more emotional, which leads to scenes where it's obvious she's overracting and you wish she'd calm down. For example, the LotSB Car Chase sounds INFINITELY better with Meer's dialog than Hale's. Heck, Meer in general sounds much better in LotSB than Hale does.



Miranda's Ass - This bugged the crap out of me. Entire sections where they blatantly show off her perfectly rounded ass for no reason whatsoever. I GET IT BIOWARE. NO REALLY I DO.



Default Weapons - Everyone using Avenger ARs during the Suicide mission, Garrus holding a Shuriken during his Loyalty mission. This isn't ME1 where everyone could use every weapon, so WHY are you defaulting them during cutscenes?!

2. If Joker is covering your escape from the collector base with an assault rifle (that magically doesn't break his arm), who's flying the ship? Shouldn't someone else be doing that?


At that stage in the game, EDI is the Normandy... they are no longer differentiated.. they are one and the same entity... EDI is perfectly able to fly the Normandy without Joker (in fact, it happens twice throughout the game's cinematics... Joker is only needed to introduce human unpredictability to combat equations (EDI explains it if you talk to her after removing her locks).

Clearly that's personal preference, as I found it completely the opposite. In LoTSB my male shep sounded dull as usual (though the car scene was one of Meer's better deliveries in the game as whole).. and my fem shep sounded more ... alive... her voice, as usual, had inflection and appropriate tone.. as she does most of the time in ME2.

Hey bioware, see what Liara is wearing here, that's right bring it back across the board!

No more ridiculous bodysuits and masks for squadmates.

Play LOTSB.  In that 4 person pose picture, if your 3rd squadmate doesn't carry a handgun, the entire character ISN'T EVEN THERE.

Or that part where you finally reach the Salarian contact and your team holds their main weapon (AR, Sniper, Shotgun) like a pistol.

Garrus's alternative armour, and the much maligned lack of enviro suits.

Miranda is only the most obvious example of this pet peeve of mine.  Between Miranda's "vacuum-sealed" outfit, Jacob's spandex suit, Samara's lack of a zipper, Jack's...I don't know what to call her outfit. it looks more like Shepard's recruiting a superhero team than a bunch of mercenaries, scientists, and soldiers. 

At least it LOTSB explained Thane's silly outfit.  Not a very good explanation, but it at least there is one.

Jacob's suit looks at least moderately functional.  Samara...my guess is that it's traditional Jusitcar attire.  And Jack has been through the hoops a lot, so her suit is likely her personal preference (Hence why I like her loyalty outfit though)

super minor silly thing. In ME1 when I take Juliana's daughter back, I usually end up shooting Jeong and she says something about - what are we coming to shooting each other in the back - and I just sort of yell back at her I didn't shoot him in the back I shot him facing me with a gun.


Oh gods that always bugged me. Lizbeth (Lisbeth?) also apologizes a couple of times for shooting Shepard, but she always shoots Kaidan in my playthroughs. Always made me want to shoot back at her.

is it me or if you take out all the loyalty missions this game would be insanely short?

That's... that's kind of the game - recruiting and earning the loyalty of your team in preparation for the SM.

I will second the silly masks needing to be replaced. Shepard wears a helmet, why doesn't anyone else?

Sometimes we're in toxic environments, which I'm pretty sure would be painful to my squadmates. Theoretically it wouldn't kill you to wear something like that in a vacuum (assuming there is enough air to not freeze you to death very quickly), but it would be incredibly uncomfortable. It may asphyxiate your skin, given enough time. In any case, I wouldn't try it, there's a reason space suits cover every inch of skin.


There's this thing called pressure that keeps your insides from expanding.  There's none of it in space.

First thing that would happen is your skin starts to feel like it's expanding or you got a really bad sunburn.
Immediatelly after that, your blood starts to boil due to the quick change in pressure,
and you promptly and mercifully die as your blood vessels start to pop (including those in the brain).  Along with your eyes and lips.
And finally, all of your organs turn to mush as they explode from within.

The little scene when the Normandy explodes and Shepard goes flying off into space?  That's his suit getting depressurized and all of the above symptons begin to happen.

When they found Shepard, he really was a pile of meat. 

Some of that's an exaggeration, and in fact it is possible to have minor extremities exposed to a vacuum space for some time, with perhaps a tingling, numbing sensation and swelling.  The degree to which anything in your body pops or explodes depends on the suddenness of the decompression.  The tests that have been done on animals show that organs may expand, but they don't necessarily rupture, and frequently go back to size when normal pressure returns.  

I guess Kinetic Barriers can keep a space pressurized, maybe?  That still means problems when the kinetic barriers go down in a firefight.

Joker looks really really creepy when he's mocking Legion in the cockpit before Legion's loyalty mission. Like his eyelids are peeling out or something.

Non-sense.  Even if you could, theoretically, survive out in the vacuum, you'd be permanently scarred.

Again, there's no point to NOT wearing a suit, as it takes no extra energy and doesn't constrict you.

Oh there's a reason alright.  Miranda, Samara, and Jack's cleavage must be showcased and preserved despite all common sense.

HI-HO SILVER, AWAY!
