No characters should go into combat in high heels and/or inappropriate protection from hostile environments with skimpy outfits or nonsensical costumes that would neither protect them from gunfire or hostile exposures. Give teammates practical armor when on a mission!

Barrier/Shiled

Except most male squadmates wear armor anyway.

And high heels are bad regardless of shields.

- There are way too many charm + intimidate options. In some cases they magically solved and ruined interesting conflicts eg Tali + Zaeed's loyalty missions.
- The Alliance should frame someone else for Shepard's Batarian incident if it's possible.
- Morinth is one of the best characters of ME2.
- A lot of the ME1 voice acting sounds forced and awkward.


"Morinth is one of the best characters of ME2"     I agree 100% Posted Image

Mass Effect would be better without femshep. A lot of redundancy could be eliminated, allowing for deeper growth of certain characters without pidgeonholing any of them.

If Mass Effect hadn't had femshep, I would have never gotten into it. I'm so incredibly tired of the majority of games being male only. Bulky, white, stubble, short hair, no personality whatsoever, he's just the chosen hero or the brooding antihero. It's incredible how much more interesting and nuanced femshep is than default derpshep.



Right. Default Male Shepard is a POS because he's white and male. Way to garner respect for your opinion.

How about this for an unpopular opinion? I love Harbinger and prefer him over Sovereign.

TOP THAT.

-Udina is a better representative than Anderson for the Council (even though I still pick Anderson to get my spectre status back)
-The Geth are nothing more than machines
-Tali is very overrated
-Jack is awesome.
-Shepard should kill TIM and take over Cerberus with complete access to the collector base himself.

What are some things you think that go against the ME-playing consensus?

I'll start:

-- ME would be better/more orignial if the asari were replaced by a more alien race like the quarians.[/quote]Surely. Who honestly believes that race of monogendered space babes can exist?

[quote]-- The krogan genophage is justifiable and not worth curing at this point.[/quote]Not justified, but I don't think it should be immediately cured. To tell the truth, I prefer give information to Wrex and let him decide.

[quote]-- The hanar are worthless and BW should not waste a shred of disc space on putting Blasto in ME3.[/quote]Hanars are good (especially "big stupid jellyfish" one), but characters added for comic relief always annoyed me. Same goes for Space Hamster.

[quote]-- Zaeed is not a morally-reprehensible character.[/quote]He's absolutely normal considering ME universe

[quote]-- Samara is worse than her daughter.[/quote]No thanks. Samara isn't perfect, but Morinth is far worse.

[quote]-- "The Great Lie" about Jacob Taylor is that he is normal. He is actually the most bizarre individual in the series.[/quote] He isn't normal, but there are worse people than he

[quote]-- If you think the turian councilor is too hostile, you are/were probably a sheltered child.[/quote]Surely

[quote]-- Punching Khalisa bint-Sinan Al-Jalani is a stupid thing to do.[/quote]Of course. Making her look like idiot on her own show is better than let her have outcome she expected.

[quote]-- Renegade scarring/red-eyes is hawt.[/quote]~60% is hawt, 100% is walking zombie. Anyways, I'd prefer blue glow for Paragon instead of "magically healed because Shepard hugged trees"

[quote]-- Jack does not need hair, nor should she be redesigned so more people can tolerate her.[/quote]Definitely agree

[quote]-- Garrus is not much of a "bro" to Shepard. The only character that can rationally hold that moniker is Wrex. ("Shepard! My friend!")[/quote]Garrus complains to much to be bro. Only if you mean junior brother who constantly needs in morality guidance.

[quote]-- More action/missions is prefferable to a bigger Citadel for mere exploration, asit was in ME2.[/quote]Yes. But I want far bigger Citadel:)
[quote]-- The Hammerhead > The Mako.[/quote]Leave them both burn

Now my "addition":
- Cerberus, Alliance and Council are equal in egoism and wish to find a spacegoat.
- ME1 skill trees were pretty much limited and alike, especially the ones of squadmates
- Thermal clips are better than Overheat system
- Joker doesn't worth all problems he causes.
- Elevators were fine
- Vanguards are not overrated
- Jacob is far worse when it comes to shoving parts of body in camera than Miranda
- Anderson and Hackett aren't Shepard's BFFs. They are as manipulative as the rest of Alliance and Council
- Shiala and Aria are just NPCs and shouldn't get more attention
- Saving Kaidan makes more sense than saving Ashley
- Jack is the most reliable and trustworthy squadmate

-- It would have been more interesting if instead of being blue space babes waiting to be Captain Kirked they'd been creepy spider things... that everyone still wanted to Captain Kirk.
Think of the dialogue options while the humans tried to figure out why every other race was so obsessed with them.
-- I much prefer Samara to her daughter on pretty much every level, but she's a bit of a fascist. The whole 'above the law' thing is played with enough by having Spectres, adding Justicars just seemed like more of the same self-destructive thinking.
-- The Turian counciler is a jerk, but yeah, my boss is worse.
-- Punching a Journalist on live-TV?  She says bad things about you Shepherd so he punches her out? Did Shepherd stop maturing in 2nd Grade?
--Jack isn't meant to be a pleasant character, so I hope they don't turn her into one.
-- Never cared for Wrex. Admittedly he has some good ideas as leader on Tuchanka, but in the first game ... meh.

My stuff:
-- Counsellor Anderson should be stripped of his post for smacking Udina around once he's got him under his thumb.
-- Femshep should be stripped of her post for continuing to sexually harass Jacob after he asks to keep the relationship professional.
-- Saren was a punk. In the jailhouse meaning of the world, and Harbinger is a much more interesting enemy.
-- I liked ME2 better than the original. I didn't like the skills in the first game, I didn't like how there were no consequences for screwing around and doing every sidequest before getting serious and chasing down Saren like the council ordered you to.

-Both Cerberus & the Alliance like any other race have made mistakes. It is probably and most likley covered up by the council etc. You don't think Salarians, Turians, and the goodey to shoes Asari have done some immoral & unethical things.

- This is true. The trees were similar to the ones we have now, but due to less levels it is seemingly different.

-100% agree. It causes each player to utilize more of their weapons. I've gone through entire ME playthroughs using only a shotgun.

-I'm not sure what you are trying to say

-Elevator rides were hilarious. Not only did you get to hear what the news or alliance told the public to cover you up, but the conversations were usually funny or informative.

-Vanguard are rather fun!  They aren't overated. Infiltrator is overarted. People love the invisiblity cloack and I admit it is a damn get out of jail free card.

-  I never really noticed, but i will look for it.

- Anderson seems to be the guy living his life through you. He may prove to be valuable, but Admirall Hackett is a really dull character, hate his voice, his " do this for me please you rep the alliance"

- I don't care much about Shiala, but Aria might help you out on Omega as an escape etc. I hope she is included in the next game somehow, somewhere.

- As annoying alliance fanboy as Kaiden ishe is better then Ashley. She is the annoying girlfriend who hates everyone that isn't her. Complete annoying xenophobe.

- Jack isan awesome squadmate, however she is strange in some sense. She is against Cerberus & honestly has heads up.




Her is my  list

-We don't know enough about the Quarians.
- The drell will invetably become extinct wheater by Reaper or natural exction. There is not enough population to survire Kepral sydrome or evolve fast enough to over come it.
-The keepers are most likely the species that killed the derelict reaper if you know the whole story about the species who defeated that Reaper you will understand. (hence both are 37 millions years old.)
- Sometimes you have crack a few eggs to make an omllete(refering to human experimenting etc) Most species probably have done it anyways
- There will be many many Reapers in ME3 more then most people think. (100,000+)
-Samara is acually a really awesome character and my favorite Asari.

-Genophage was the best and most moral way of dealing with the krogan problem. It isn't genocide.
-Reprograming the heretics is abhorent.
-Working with Cerberus made sense.
-Hammerhead is better than the mako. All Terrain FTW.
-Hanar are awesome, Blasto is not.
-Tali's romance both acceptable & believable.
-Jack is unattractive on every level.
-Biotics are fine.
-ME2 was not filler despite the reapinator NOT being a backup plan.

- Tali is not an interesting character.
- Samara is more boring than Jacob.
- Jacob's theme music by Sam Hulick is my favourite character theme in the game.
- Sentinel is a great class in ME2.
- ME2 is much easier than ME1.
- Mark Meer's deadpan performance makes for a better renegade Shepard than Femshep.
- I like Kaidan.
- I like the mako.
- Aria is a bad character. So is Gianna.
- I don't need an inventory, just an improved research system.
- I'd rather have Christopher Lennertz as composer than Clint Mansell. His Shadow broker music was some of the best in ME2.

- Catsuits are janky. I'm playing Mass Effect; not Batman. Give them proper armor!
- Admiral Hackett is a two-faced manipulator.
- The Systems Alliance is even less trustworthy than Cerberus.
- Tech Armor is not overpowered.
- Tali sucks.
- Ashley sucks.
- Kaidan sucks.
- Jack is a very rational being. Get them before they get you!
- Shepard would be an idiot to surrender for trial.
- Recurring characters should NOT turn bi-sexual or full-blown gay. I have no problem with s/s romances. I simply request saving them for the new character(s).
- Mass Effect should have (tactful) nudity.

*Good thing I have a flame-retardant coat with a matching shield... I think I'm going to need it.

Jacob is a fun, interesting character, and his romance was one of the most touching romances I have ever seen in a bioware romance.

The romance scenes in ME2 are better than the ME1 scenes.

Cerberus is not an inept organization of idiots.

Destroying the collector base ( The alternative is giving it to cerberus who has a 'GREAT' track record with dealing with reaper tech...)

Ashley is not a racist xenophobe.

Tali does not deserve the praise she gets constantly.

I don't support s/s romances in ME3. (*gets flame-retardant suit*)

Mark Meer is better than Jennifer Hale .

I don't understand why people like Garrus so much.

He is just a cop gone rogue because of too much paperwork and not being able to give anyone a beating to get info or blow up ships full of civilians to catch "the bad guys". I understand his frustration but seriously, I would hate someone like that in real life.

- Jacob is a great character.

- I like Mark Meer better.

- I like Admiral Xen.

- I don't completely (KEYWORD: completely, I don't mean I don't support s/s romance at all) support s/s romance in ME3.

- I think the whole galaxy vs. Reapers thing kinda sucks.

- I don't understand Admiral Hackett's popularity.

- I think Engineer is the best class.

I hate Kasumi's loyalty mission the most now. I've done it so many times and Hock's final fight is so buggy on a Vanguard.

It bugs me how you can "persuade" Zaeed to put 20 years of revenge on hold. While you can't "persuade" Tali that her father was a war criminal and the families touched by what he did have a right to know.

I actually like Udina and Velarn(turian councilor).

The Arrival DLC was completely unneccessary, considering I already know that the Reapers are coming. It didn't progress the plot forward in any meaningful way. And it is overpriced.

Right. Default Male Shepard is a POS because he's white and male. Way to garner respect for your opinion.

That's one way to misinterperet what I said, I suppose.

A few games have succeeded in making their version of the 35-year-old, built male with short brown hair and stubble into an actual character with personality. Mass Effect has not. Which I find facisnating, because femshep says largely the same lines, but I actually believe her when she says things.
