Just curious what everyone thinks. 

Favorite: Tali.  Duh, no suprise, look at my avatar.

Least favorite: Thane.  I thought it was lame.  Spying from the rafters?  Really?  I thought the loyalty mission should've had something to do with Thane's sickness.  But nooooo.  We gotta straighten out Thane Jr. so he don't follow daddy's footsteps.  Lame.

BTW, I also hate Legion's but at least you can shoot things.

I'm not sure I have a favourite as I've not really given thought to it, but I quite like Grunt's because it adds a bit more depth to the Krogans, my favourite species since I met Wrex. And also you get to talk to Wrex again too. For similar reasons I like Mordin's a lot too because it ties in to the history of the genophage. I usually do Grunt's and Mordin's missions together on a single visit to Tuchanka and bring each on the other's mission just because it seems fitting to me that they should. Tali's and Garrus' missions would be up there because of their history with Shepard, and just for play and atmosphere reasons I like Kasumi's.

Not sure I have a least favourite either but there's a few I tend to steam through as fast as I can, including Jacob's and Thane's. It's not that I dislike them as such but they really don't add anything significant to the ME universe (compare Ardat Yakshi and how asari feel about them introduced in Samara's mission) and they lack the connection of involving Shepard's old friend characters from the first game.

Yeah, I agree with most of what you said. The only thing missing in Kasumi's is the inability to romance one of the more fascinating characters in the series afterwards.

Yes, I'm sure romanceable Kasumi would have been popular. Hell, I'd have settled for anything other than just the autodialogue you get when you go to see her. Wouldn't have minded if it was mixed in with some genuine interaction, and actually random autodialogue like Zaeed's and Kasumi's would have been good for other squaddies when the all the 'real' dialogue has run out.

Sorry, getting off the topic of loyalty missions there. Back on those rails!

loyalty missions is the biggest factor as to why ive not played me2 in awhile, bunch oh whiney bar stewards do my nut in, dont they realise i was dead for 2 year an got bigger problems than there crappy lil whiney personal problems lol

On topic im with PsiFive i like grunts cause my fav char is wrex an grunts a krogan soo

Jacobs hardly ever gets done cause he gets vented nigh all the time so maybe i dislike that most

But then you got Thanes who puts me to sleep

an then you got Jacks where i honestly wish there was an option to strap her to the chair yourself an strangle her or tie her to the bomb an leave her there

TBH i could nit pick through them all cause im not a great fan of many of the me2 companions an have vented them all apart from tali an grunt, well tali once but that was by mistake and had to get therapy after it, i see the loyalty missions as a necessary evil to playing the awesome that is the suicide mission

At least there isn't a Kelly loyalty mission. It would probably involve something to do with Scale Itch or some nonsense. A Joker mission might've been interesting though.

Night and day here..... My favorites are Thanes, Samara's and Tali's
least favorite are Legion's (and I love Legion, just his mission is just 'horde' to me), and Jacob's.
Everyone else fits into the middle.

Simple reason why those top three are my favorite. It isn't all about shooting things. Nice change of pace. As for how it matters to the ME Universe....that is not a prerequisite on whether I liked the LM's or not. Since the very definition of them focuses on the individuals. Nothing wrong if they DO add to the ME lore and Universe, but was never necessary. I just used them as a way to get to know my teammates better. And with Thane and Samara's LM, it was more about talking....some interesting dialogue, and new things to learn about the individuals. Good times. :D

I like the missions where there isn't a lot of shoot outs like Samara and Thane. Tali's was pretty good as well. Although there was a big shootout during Kasumi's mission I did like it because of the party and the different vibe from the rest of the game.

Favorite :
Miranda LM
I like Illum, the fights against Eclipse mercs are cool and it develops the story of my favorite character of the game.

Least Favorite :
Jacob LM
Boring mission, boring characters. At least the planet is nice.

Miranda's LM is my Favorite.

Least Favorite wold have to go to... Legion or Jacob.

Legion has a cool story, but the gameplay and environment is really snoozy.

Jacob has a decent plot as well, but it doesn't come off as particularly meaningful or worthwhile.

Grunt and Mordin's LMs are my favourite ones.

Grunt because of the awesome rite of passage and the confrontation with that krogan afterwards.

Mordins because it nicely sets up the genophage arc (even though i'm not an fan of how parts of it were executed in ME3)

And both of them take place on the krogan homeworld Tuchanka; Thats a big plus!

Worst would have to be Miranda's LM. Fighting through Illiums warehouses isn't my idea of fun, and the plot twist about her friend betraying her were a bit too predictable. But if i had to say anything positive about that mission, it would be that the finale boss is good and the reunion with her sister at the very end is also a little heartwarming.

In order from favourite to least favouritre


Mordin - Love it. An expose of one of the most interesting characters. Also shows Paragon Shep up as a righteous but narrow-minded ass.
Miranda - Yeah, it's good. Nice combat, like the twist that her 'twin' is a child, and no massive plot holes.
Garrus - I like that Garrus is loyal whatever happens, so the game doesn't really punish either opinion.
Samara - Nice to have a change from the fighting. But really, why would you ever pick Morinth?
Legion - Like it. Though could have done a little more with the morality of the choice.
Jack - An interesting exploration of her character. The choice to spare the guy seems a bit odd - especially as he has no hope of outrunning that MASSIVE explosion.
Kasumi - Interesting. Except for the love story - that was tedious.
Tali - Would be great until the fact that you are able to convince the council to accept through sheer force of personality through para/reneg choices and make them abandon due process. Just silly.
Zaeed - Pretty well done. Like the choice, like the situation. It's solid enough.
Grunt - Just lots of fights. That's it.
Thane - Didn't really like the 'follow' game mechanic.
Jacob - Just awful. The plot is a huge mess, which drives me wild.

I do like Mordin's quest. Particularly the part where you shoot the gasline and light the Krogan on fire.

For me favourite loyalty mission was actually Mordin's on Tuchanka

Least favourite was Thanes because it just lacked something.

I just finished replaying ME2 a few days ago and I remembered why I hated the loyalty missions so much.

Miranda - issues with her daddy
Jacob - issues with his daddy
Tali - issues with her daddy
Thane - issues with his son
Samara - issues with her daughter

Though out of all of the missions getting to fight a thresher maw on foot with Grunt was cool.

My favourite one is Zaeed, specially for the evil/good action you gotta make in order to continue, Jack mission being second.
As for my least favourite I would say Thane for the following game mechanic that is not really good, along with the Tali, that tribunal thing it is pretty boring for me

Personally i liked Thane and Samaras loyality missions, they were a nice break from the normal mission structure plus there were some epic renegade moments during the interrogation and bar scene.

Grunt, Tali and Miranda's missions were probably my favorite, but i didnt dislike any of the others enough to label it least favorite.

Favorite: Mordin's by far. I pretty much ignored the doctor on my first playthrough and almost didn't do his mission at all. Big mistake. The depth of the character was put on display like none of the others (with the possible exception of Miranda). This mission is what laid the groundwork for the only character death that moved me to tears.

Least Fav: Probably Jacob's. Nothing really moving in the story, and doesn't really affect Jacob. In the end a boring scenario for a boring character (one that I started the game off trusting the most outside of Garrus).

Favorite: Tali. I love being able to see quarian society first-hand, catching up with Veetor and Kal'Reegar, hearing the admirals' differing opinions, and being able to speak up for Tali at the trial. While I'd have liked to be able to expose Rael's experiments without losing Tali's loyalty, the "Rally the Crowd" option is still a satisfying conclusion if you think (as I did) that the quarian leadership needs a wake-up call.

Least Favorite: Samara, only because it goes so off the rails at the end. There's no real reason anybody has to die (we even see in ME3 that the asari can keep ardat-yakshi under confinement), a hedonistic serial killer is not "more useful" on a suicide mission no matter how much of a Renegade Shepard is, and the whole "Morinth impersonates Samara" is half-assed and just dumb, considering that she continues to use biotic powers that Samara doesn't have and even yells something like "Fear the power of the Ardat-Yakshi!" in front of other squadmates.

Havent gotten to do Thane's, Tali's, Legion's, or Samara's yet.
But from the ones I've played my favourite two would have to be Miranda's and Garrus'. They were awesome and they involved my two faavourite characters. 
Grunt, Mordin, and Zaaeed's missions were good too. Jack's was ok but i dont really like her.
The worst one and the only i found lame was jacobs. He's a bland guy
