Joker's joke about Thessia is terrible and I'm glad Shep is forced to have common sense there and yell at him.


I myself found it funny. Headcanon wise, my Shepard only yelled at him over it only because of Liara's constant ****ing.

Mostly because a whole bunch of folks didn't like how badly Kai Leng beat Shepard in all the cutscenes surrounding their fight, but why does it matter if the fight was fair? They're just jelly that Shepard isn't 1337 haX0r like Leng.

On the Priority: Earth mission, I think just about everyone who played through ME2 was expecting better, suicide mission-style. Personally I think the silliest part of it is when you man the turret in camp. I once just sat there without shooting and after a little while the ships came and did the airstrike anyway. There's literally no point to it.

If you don't do it well enough, the people on the FOB radio die horribly...


Wait wait wait wait wait... There's repurcusions for doing poorly on that turret? It's not completely divorced from everything going on around it? There's a choice on the Priority: Earth mission? My mind has been blown.

Awfully designed fight with Kai Leng isn't enough?

That fight was amazing, actually. There Leng is, the only thing standing in the way of stopping the Reapers once and for all. But, for all Shepard's might, he isn't good enough to stop Kai from grabbing the intel. It gives the player undeniable respect for Kai Leng and establishes him as a tremendous threat. After that fight, I was seriously doubting whether or not I could defeat him.


you mean the fact that Kei had "plot armor" cause there was a few playthoughts where I would have so owned his ass if not for the plot armor... (and yes despite the gunship there, was able to dely his shield regen. ) 

so yea...

I don't see why, after such a defeat and millions of people dead just like on Earth, Shepard would find  ''lulz they r stripperz!!1!!'' funny.

It's a cover-based shooter. WHY DOES HE CROUCH IN THE OPEN? And when the fight was over, he said the line I was hoping Shepard would say: "It's time to finish this!". It adds a little insult when he proceeds to backhand slap one squadmate into another.

Maybe not, but being forced to be outraged over it when it is obviously a coping mechanism... I didn't want to be mad at Joker for the joke even if I didn't find it funny.

Because it is the epitome of bad game design, the temple at least.

And Shepard getting all mad at Joker instead of Tevos felt completely out of character.

My biggest problem with Thessia is the attitude the crew has afterwards. There is just so much Liara coddling. Liara is not my LI. I don't want a piece of that blueberry pie. It would be so much easier to want to be Liara's friend if she wasn't forced on me so much.

Adas Anti-Synthetic Rifle. Smug **** can't even move out of place before he needs to regen his shields.

"Tremendous threat."

I liked it for the most part. The Kai Leng stuff was horrible, but aside from that it had a great atmosphere (it gave me the feeling that I was fighting a losing war), pretty good encounter design, and Javik's contributions were excellent. I didn't like the railroading of Shepard's reaction to the fall of Thessia, but that's not a problem with the mission itself.

I hate Kai Leng with a passion.. In the novel Retribution he's a complete ass, and it get's really frustrating through the battle how he throws taunts out left, right and center.. But when it comes to him losing his precious shields it's all "Cover me, I need to recharge!" It was completely pointless and was just a way to make the fight longer.

As many stated already - Thessia is not a mission, actually. It's a one auto-scene where NOTHING depends of you. You can enjoy first dialogs, sure (especially if you do not mind Liara and have Javek in your team), but this is all to enjoy. Then cut-scenes tell you how you fight (how you loose, actually) - AGAIN not your skills, not your tactics - cut-scenes. And after that auto-dialogs tell you how you feel.

You have no choices, no freedom whatsoever. Your Shepard is taken from you and played by BW the way they want, against all your RP ideas. They could as well make the whole "mission" into one big cut-scene and be done with it. Result is the same.

This is the main problem every has with Kai Leng, and one of the main reasons Priority:Thessia is such a failure. *MY* Shepard ****ing owned his ass, and had NO problems defeating him conventionally. It's because he suddenly recharges himself, and then uses freaking CUT-SCENES to beat me. I have no control, I just lose, and then my hardcore Shepard psycho-bitc who doesn't give a FK about Asari starts crying like a useless tool.

God I hate Thessia.

No reason? He just got his butt handed to him lost the data and had to let the Reapers take Thessia. Good reason for me.

My only problem is that I didn't get to leave Liara on the ship.
Shep is a military leader, and she's not gonna take some emotional trainwreck along and jeopardize the mission.
