I must say I think I'm not the only one who lamented the abandoning of rpg elements after me 1.

True, but on the other hand, I lament the lack of biotic explosions in ME1, so not all change was bad change. Mmmm, lift > warp > throw > GA-DOOM! :wub:

And while a choice of how to play the game would be awesome, I don't see it as a viable option, not yet anyhow, since it would take so many hours of development it'd be practically like making 2 different games with shared cutscenes.

Ideal situation would be to to ask e question at the begining of the game how would you like to play it ..as shooter or RPG like like me 1...
I think in thé future that would be ideal and something Bioware needs to look into this .

I do enjoy the shooting parts but I preferred having more rpg elements in the game, that's what drew me to the game to start off with.

Well they did sort of try in ME3 but I didn't fiddle with the options at all, I want my story and want to choose my own dialogue.

I lol'd when I saw the autopilot conversation option. Because it's not like conversations are in any way important in ME.

Hmm, that reminds me, is there any way to not hurt Kaidan's feelings in ME? I'm courting Liara, can't remember flirting with Kaidan, and only conversation options that don't give him the wrong impression tend to be mean ones :?

Not that I've noticed they all seem a bit mean, like when you have to turn Liara down. But then I've always romanced Kaidan so I can't be 100% sure. Image IPB.

The least mean one seems to be 'not your ****** business'. Seriously, what would be wrong with 'sorry, I like you, but don't love you'...

I might do a Kaidan romance char next. Then get Shep's heart broken in ME2 because he's an ass, romance Thane, and then move on to Kaidan in ME3 again.

Yup, I play this game solely for the shooter mechanics. Totally B)

lol they only put the shooter stuff in so that you can vent after Kaidan/Ashley is an ass to you on Horizon.

That's how I feel!! Hahah. 
Actually, the only reason why ME1 isn't my favorite is because of gameplay. It doesn't have showckwave :crying:


And good morning everyone~!
It's snowing here...even though it's the last week of April and it's obviously Spring...<_<

Javik needs more love. I'd like him as a romance option:P
His accent is sublime. "They used to eat flies" <3

They didn't even try though, lol. They just did things like rip out the dialogue wheel and options to respond to things and replace them with "ambeint dialogue". I stand by what I've said about Mass Effect 3 barely being half a game.
