I actually like the council. I can understand their actions and attitudes (though I may not always agree) and I hope they get some redeeming scenes in ME3.

Default femShep looks amazing and the vast majority of custom femSheps look like **** compared to her.

Shotguns in ME2 suck.

The engineer is a really fun class.

ME1's guns look and sound like they're made of plastic.

Matriarch Benezia's is a useless character. Her voice acting is terrible and her character design is ridiculous.

Grunt is just a clone of Wrex that got all of the humor, maturity, and emotional conflict drained out of him.

Samara is the very definition of "lawful stupid" and her biotic abilities are worse than Jack's. Apparently that justicar code forbids you from speaking with any inflection or intonation in your voice, too.

The SR-2's interior is much better than the SR-1's

Embarrassing the reporter is far more satisfying than punching her.

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.


Alien characters are held to a lower a standard than the human ones. It's the reason why Tali is liked better than Kaidan in ME1 even though the latter has better characterization. Garrus would be in the same boat as Kaidan if he were human.


That's true. If Garrus was a human, people would likely call him whiny (and not space batman).



Well I'd call him Space Jack Bauer but thats already been taken by Sheperd lol.

-FemShep is very overrated. I didn't think Hale did all that well in ME2. I really don't understand the love she gets. Meer is way better.


I agree with you. Both actors do have certain lines or scenes that they do better than the other, but over all Hale doesn't sound genuine to me. Femshep sounds like she's in a booth reading a script. Meer sounds like he's actually there talking to the other person.


Wierd it felt the total opposite for me.  Meer sounds bored.

Same, I don't get the idea that manshep cares at all about the things going on around him. He sounds like he's BSing every single thing he says.

Ooh, Here's another one.

ME1's RPG mechanics were never that good to begin with. Streamlining them did not hurt the second game in any way.

That's why this thread called "unpopular opinions". Most of people on this forum will agree with you.

I liked the Pre-Suicide mission LI scenes than I did the Pre-Mu Relay scenes.

Watch Garrus' scene and Ashley's is more emotional. Garrus or Tali's scenes wouldn't have been improved with nudity.

More from me.

- I like the Council more than the Alliance and Cerberus. I almost always save them.

- I don't understand the Big Ben Sniper's popularity. To me he has no significance whatsoever.

- ME1 is pretty boring. ME2 is better.

- Conrad Verner is annoying.

- I don't like Joker's voice actor. Seth Green is kind of annoying.

- When it comes to Jacob, I think that Bioware (and almost the entire gaming industry) doesn't know how to write black characters without using stereotypes.

- I don't like the music at all, save for Samara's theme and Tali's.

- I like Mordin, but I'm not a huge fan of him.

- I think ME2 is a collection of short stories.

- I don't hate EA.

- I think I could have written ME better somewhat.

- I don't think Saren was a villain.

- I don't care whether FemShep is on the cover or not.

- I like Sheploo.

- I don't want Shepard to say "f**k" in ME3. To me, it just doesn't fit the character. Or the voice, for that matter.

- I don't care whether or not multiplayer is in ME3.

- I don't care about the RPG elements, I just want a fun game to play.

- Not Mass Effect related, but I think that the Dragon Age series is highly inferior to the ME series. Both DA games so far have been pure fail and I think Bioware should drop it.

- Save for Mordin, I don't really like salarians much.

- Except for Legion, I don't like the geth. They are just not interesting, and I don't like the change from ME1 to ME2. To me that was just make you sympathize with them. Kinda sappy to me.

- I think ManShep is better.

- I like Shiala when she's green, not purple. I think she's more unique when she's green.

- I don't like the "humanity is special" thing going in in the game.

- I'm not a fan of the VS becoming a Spectre.

- I don't like Chakwas.

- I understand and agree with the batarians resentment towards the Alliance.

- I don't give a **** about the Protheans.

- I feel bad for the vorcha.

- I think the CE of ME3 is just fine. Anyone asking for an "Uber" Edition is asking for too much.

- I like the Liara/ManShep pairing better.

- I hope we have a scene where we beat the living **** out of that reporter.

- Emily Wong is annoying to me.

- Save for the videos and stuff on squadmates, I thought LOTSB was disappointing and overpriced.

- I hate people who complain about catsuits and such. It's a marketing strategy, GET OVER IT.

I'll bite.

-I did not care about Kaidan, Ashley, Wrex, or Liara. I felt no connection to any of them. Although I did develop a bit of a fondness for Wrex after seeing him on Tuchanka in ME 2. And I thought Grunt was kind of lame too.
-ME 1 was not a "deep RPG" and most of the streamlining in ME 2 actually drastically improved the game.
-I prefer planet scanning to landing on a planet that's basically a recoloring of all the other side planets that have the same copy-and-paste maps.
-The female LIs in ME 2 were better than the ones in ME 1 (no comment on manShep LIs since I can never finish a playthrough with him...)
-Arrival was really boring, added nothing at all to the story, and was a waste of my money.
-BioWare should probably stop listening to their "fans" so much.

Ah, this is gonna be fun.

- FemShep sounds forced and fake. I cringe almost every time I hear her.
- ManShep is awesome, no matter what.
- ME (1)'s side missions were time-exhaustive yet have better writing than ME2's.
- The fact that ammo powers are still in ME3 is retarded. They should be in the weapons customization.
- The use of curse words (sh!t, f*ck, @sshole, etc.) in ME2 was stupid.
- I don't care for half of the squaddies in ME2. They're overrated and over-hyped.
- ME2 feels small as hell.
- ME2's main plot is static and almost backwards.
- The best thing of ME2 was LotSB.
- The mako is good. Hammerhead falls apart if you blow to it.
- Bioware should stop with Mass Effect after ME3.

And as cherry on top of the cake:
- Smudboy ain't so bad.

I don't mind the curse words and by that I don't mean to suggest that people opposed to them are going "OOH MY STARS!" and clutching their pearls when they hear it. People curse so it -should- be there if it makes sense for the character and/or the situation calls for it.

My problem with it is when they...hell, what can I call it, just look at the scene with Aria when they have to set her "Don't **** with Aria" thing up to be..I don't know what. Dramatic and shocking, camera angle and all.
THAT was just stupid, well, in my opinion at least.

My beef with it is that's inconsistent writing. What, did the entire galactic society suddenly learned to swear in the last two years?

-Genophage was the best and most moral way of dealing with the krogan problem. It isn't genocide.

United Nations convention on genocide disagrees. So do I.

-Reprograming the heretics is abhorent.

I agree, but the wholesale killing isn't much better.

-Working with Cerberus made sense.

Yes, but it doesn't mean I have to like them.

-Hanar are awesome, Blasto is not.

The Hanar are exactly what Mass Effect needed, and it's a shame they aren't a council race instead of the Asari.

-Tali's romance both acceptable & believable.

Agreed. Even if she is a psychotic ideologue.

-Jack is unattractive on every level.

Get thee behind me!!!

-Biotics are fine.

Could be better, could be much worse. Thankfully no lightning bolts.

-ME2 was not filler despite the reapinator NOT being a backup plan.

Too early to say, but if it is it's damn good filler.

*Kaidan's a nice guy, but that's what annoys me about him.
* Ashley's the smartest character in the game.
* Tali's the most dangerous.
* Why do the lady Krogan want to mate with Grunt after the Thresher Maw? He doesn't even have a proper plate on his head?
* The hammerhead annoyed me so much I didn't bother completing that DLC.
* The only character who I object to having a s/s relationship in ME3 is Jack, because she explicitly told my femShep that she wasn't into girls (3somes have different rules)

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.
-- The krogan genophage is justifiable and not worth curing at this point.
-- The hanar are worthless and BW should not waste a shred of disc space on putting Blasto in ME3.
-- Zaeed is not a morally-reprehensible character.
-- Samara is worse than her daughter.
-- "The Great Lie" about Jacob Taylor is that he is normal. He is actually the most bizarre individual in the series.
-- If you think the turian councilor is too hostile, you are/were probably a sheltered child.
-- Punching Khalisa bint-Sinan Al-Jalani is a stupid thing to do.
-- Renegade scarring/red-eyes is hawt.
-- Jack does not need hair, nor should she be redesigned so more people can tolerate her.
-- Garrus is not much of a "bro" to Shepard. The only character that can rationally hold that moniker is Wrex. ("Shepard! My friend!")
-- More action/missions is prefferable to a bigger Citadel for mere exploration, asit was in ME2.
-- The Hammerhead > The Mako.

*puts on hardhat and takes cover* that's it for me. Gooooo!!!!! :devil:


- Nah. I mean,they kind of make me roll my eyes but I understand why they were implemented.
- Semi-agree, though it seems like an extreme solution when surely there are better options. Still, a more stable genophage that allows for a more reasonable birthrate would be good.
- The hanar are important to the ME universe as one of the more alien alien species. Obviously its a game and there are considerations such as LI's and getting a player to emote with characters that dictate that a lot of them need to be very humanoid; things like the hanar help to balance that.
- Whether he is morally reprehensible or not (though I think he is), he's simply fairly dull and I just don't really care about him.
- Samara is something of a nobhead, definately. The 'code' seems ridiculously immoral.
- I read your reasons for Jacobs supposed bizarreness and would say thats an unintentional impression given by his bad writing. Either way he was completely pointless to the story.
- The council as a whole are vaguely relatable as far as their motives. The turian councillor, however, seems designed solely to be disliked and its odd that the council seem to ignore his blatant racism (speciesism?). His reaction to the Zhus hope mission paragon outcome was particularly ridiculous.
- Agreed.
- I liked the scarring. I didn't know other people didn't.
- Defnately agree. There was nothing wrong with her character design.
- I find the whole 'bro'/'bromance' thing obnoxious in general. What happened to 'best friend'? Regardless, I'm pretty sure Garrus spoke to my maleshep about three times then busied himself with calibrations for the rest of the game, no matter what missions I completed and attempted to talk to him about. Despite my paragon influence in ME1 his only character change was that he was slightly arrogant and douchebaggy in 2.
- In 3 I can't imagine a story reason why we would be staying in one place much. I'd like to see the Normandy expanded upon as a place to explore as the place we spend the most time.
- The hammerhead was far less irritating.

Mmh, ok
- If I could I would switch Samara/Liara for Enyala, Wasea, Anaya, Shiala, Aria or 'the blue rose of Illium' (so almost any other Asari with a few exceptions)
- I don´t like heavy weapons, they are to big and look ugly on Sheps back
- I don´t like the special weapons (Widow, Revenant, Claymore) they´re too big
- I think throw and pull are the most fun biotic powers, even on insanity
- I like ammo powers (seriously I think most people don´t like them)
- I don´t like the bonus ammo powers. They are redundant/useless
- I don´t like the "heat seeking-system" for a lot of biotic powers (I miss that "pull-move" singularity had in the first game)
- I don´t like that there is no special animation for the Locust which uses the foregrip
- I can understand the council
- I like, that Talis face wasn´t revealed yet
- There is no right way  to solve Legions LM

that´s all so far

We have a winner, gentlemen! :wizard:

Aaand a few more:
- Garrus in ME1 was boring and childish. He got better in ME2 though
- Tali still has some serious growing up to do
- Liara's role in ME universe is forced
- LotSB was great and all, but 1) Shepard is totally OOC there, 2) I liked Overlord more
- We don't need femShep cover or separate trailer (comes from a femShep player)
- Thane romance scene made me throw up in my mouth a little
- In Council vs. Shepard conversations in ME1 Shepard is the one behaving like a total moron
- The Reapers are not ultimately evil
- Phoenix armor is fine :)
- Mattock is overpowered and doesn't fit in the game
- Thermal clips > overheating
- Ammo powers >>>>> ammo mods

Ultimately, this:

EA have a tight grip on what BioWare can and cannot do with Mass Effect 3.

Whether you like it or not, THERE WILL be multi-player in Mass Effect 3 and my only worry is that it will compromise the single player, not that EA care if it does or not.
