People EVERYWHERE on BSN are praising Leviathan. Is it THAT good?

Uhm... what?

What have YOU been reading?

People have been sending me PMs asking me about it. I was shocked.

It's always best to ask people you trust rather than rely on critics.

That's the best advice anyone can ever give you regarding art.

I haven't looked at a single review for Leviathan. I just looked up the footage on youtube and posted in a few threads about it. None of it was positive. My opinion is directly based on what I saw.

That being said there were some visual and gameplay elements that were intriguing. So I'm not saying it was a complete mess. Most of my problems are regarding Leviathan itself, not the structure and content of the DLC as a whole.

You don't think that's a bit unfair?

I couldn't do that when I reviewed films in College. I couldn't just look at Trailers and then write about it.

You have to participate in some capacity. I had to go to the films or rent or buy them.

The worst part is what it does to the endings. Pretty much BioWare making Synthesis the "right" choice.

No it doesn't.

It paints the Catalyst as doing what he was told.

He was programmed by flawed Organics. This DLC shows that his logic is fallacious. He was programmed by hubris laden organics who thought they were right.

You don't have to pick Synthesis. Nothing has changed.

My Shepard is still shooting the pipe and going home.

If another ME1 character was in your Squad in ME2, who else would have been a choice for Squad Leader in the SM? Kaidan?

The ME2 squad was perfect. No changes.

Why Bioware ****ed them all over is beyond me.

Not just yet. The job's only half done. Control is actually the best ending at the moment from this point of view because Commander can mobilze the full power of the Reapers to hunt down and eradicate Levianthans. But don't worry. I'm sure future DLC will definitively sabotage Control... or at least try its damndest to.

Why? Completely different situations. Trailers are marketing tools that are designed soley to hook you in, while revealing very little actual content.

Watching a section of a game on Youtube (particulary a story-driven one like Mass Effect) on the other hand reveals the entirety of the content. And if the content discussed is story progression or more specific elements of it, I don't see how gameplay affects that for better or worse.

Judging story elements in a vacuum is a mistake. But the context came through quite clearly on youtube.

Assuming Wrex could join, he'd be a good choice for Squad leader. Wrex knows the deal when it comes to combat and can easily command the respect of the crew.
I love Grunt, but Wrex has the experience and wisdom to control his combat skills.

I know. I'm only asking.

I don't know why, but I used to send Miri to lead the distraction team while I move in the Biotic Field. Felt really bad because a bullet scrapes her side. I always choose her for the 2nd Fire Team Leader at the beginning of the SM now. She is the Best for that Part<3.

[Taboo]

Because that isn't a review. You can watch part three of The Devil, Probably on Youtube right now but it doesn't do the film justice.

You are watching a section of something. It would be best to experience all three and a half hours and then make an assessment.

I'm not judging you, I'm merely offering my opinion. I simply need more than a Youtube video to make an opinion on something.

[MASSEFFECTfanforlife101]

If they had scenes showing Miri with an M8 Avenger (Especially in the SM when she leads the 2nd Fire Team), why couldn't BioWare just....I don't know....let her have Assault Rifle Training?!

I was doing Garrus' loyalty mission earlier and she has an animation where it looks like she's holding a shotgun.

Whether you agree or not, Bioware was trying to push synthesis. I understand your argument, but Bioware wants synthesis to be the chosen ending. 

I'm a destroyer. And I want to see the Leviathans burn too.

[Taboo]

There are not hundreds of them.

Synthesis wouldn't do anything about that situation anyway. If they breed in Synthesis we're ****ed anyway.

We don't know how they breed either.

Shepard knows where the Levis are, all he needs to do is to drop an asteroid with nuclear heads on the planet and goodbyee levis.

As I said, the leviathans are a threat that needs to be dealt with sooner or later.

Did you miss the part where the levi took down the reaper, effortlessly?  I'm pretty sure Control is not as safe as you think it might be.  Did you play it yet?

If you mean in your cannon, your sheps going to take some reapers to kill them off? Again how?  They just flopped the reaper out of the sky?



From what I gather the levi's wanted to be left the hell alone.  So they in turn better just stay in there little hole and not bother interfering again...

But true, if the levi' think of controling the lesser races again. Well, ****, they'll be taken care of, I hope.  But from the EC slides there is no indication that they'll be trouble makers unless it's in the future in another game?

This sounds like a job for post Destroy Shepard and Miranda.

Ha! There it is!
