Whining is when a poster comes on and says things like "ME2 had no story," "Bioware betrayed their loyal fanbase," "ME2 is not an RPG because it doesn't have all the trappings of a traditional RPG," etc...

Here's a criticism that I think is pretty reasonable: The plot of Arrival has several problems with it: for starters, Shepard waking up on an operating table despite being sedated, and then being able to hack those mechs from within his cell, just seems too convenient (and why wasn't the cell locked down? Don't you think that would've been a reasonable precaution?). Secondly, we never get to access Kenson's data or journals on the artifact, so being told that she somehow figured out a way to track the Reapers' proximity without telling us more is a fairly dubious premise. Thirdly, we know that mass relays can withstand the shockwave of a nearby supernova without being damaged, so why was destroying the Alpha Relay as simple as slamming an asteroid into it? And, of course, it's BS to suggest that nobody (not even the crazy batarian terrorists) would have tried something like it before, so that's pretty hard to believe on this end.

@OP: You're just a fan, and like many fans, you tend to get defensive when you have to look criticism in the face. Well, too bad. We're all fans here, but some of us are critics at heart. Myself, I tend to criticize my own work until I'm absolutely satisfied with it, so that attitude carries over to the things I love. Deal. :devil:

Coming here and posting our criticisms is as simple as going from scoffing to giving a damn. Coming here and crying about having to look at rows of threads that criticize the game you love... that's just fanboyism. So I guess you deserve a medal.

I do realize there are many plotholes
that shouldn't be there. Every game/book/movie is not without them. I'm
not trying to say that we shouldn't point these out in a CONSTRUCTIVE
way. What I'm trying to get across is that continually reposting the
same damn thread about one plothole that could literally be found again
on the next page is incredibly annoying. We all know the ammo system was
poorly explained, so drop it and move onto something new. We all know
that the intro was only to get the Shepard reconstruction to make sense,
drop it and go onto something new. If people didn't get so over-hyped
and think ME2 was going to be the greatest game ever, these forums would
kill a lot less of my brain cells every visit.


That's
partly the fault of the forums. They're organized in a way where it's
impossible to tell which topics have already been discussed to death.

In fact, you're beating a dead horse now.
I've seen more than a few threads denouncing the "haters" and
"whiners", and threads like this tend to be just high-horse rants
anyway.

I'd add that to the OP if I wasn't in a place where I the internet is too shotty to use anything other than the quick reply. And I do take criticism, as long as it's constructive. Your criticism is barely constructive as I'm seeing insults being thrown at me, such as "you're crying over this". So, in the future, use less insults, but continue bringing out your intellect as it's clearly there.
