So does every other character.

Is the dislike for Javik because of what he says to T'soni on Thessia? He proves that she is not the Prothean expert we're led to believe. He tells her she needs to study harder. She is shocked that Protheans aren't what she was hoping they would be

I'd suggest buying all ME3 DLC's except for Omega. Omega even isn't that bad, it's just that all the others add so much more to the overall experience and are actually worth their price.

I would pass on From Ashes unless you're set on buying everything. The only mission it includes is pretty lame, and despite what people here are saying, the addition to the lore is negligible. Javik isn't that great of a character either.

 

I would ignore this comment from Dav... I mean Bob.

 

You see he hates BioWare and now he is trying to punish them because he feels helpless.

 

It's all quite silly.

Don't listen to this asinine theory OP, my preference is towards playing Paragon characters. It's nice to have a selection of characters who play against each other. I liked taking Javik whenever I had Liara with me as I liked Alistair and Morrigan together. Javik's snark is worth it alone.

 

As you literally just quoted from me, if a person enjoys very Renegade characters, they'll probably like Javik. Say, someone who enjoys bringing very heavily contrasting characters along? Yep, that would probably qualify as someone who enjoys having very Renegade characters around.

 

Perhaps you should read what you're quoting.

Contrasting to what though. I could like someone who is very contrasting, but what if what they disagree with is something that most would consider bad or in this case renegade.

Omega grew on me. It's pretty much the only ME DLC that gives you some pretty good roleplaying with its renegade and paragon options.

I think all story DLCs are worth getting, but LotSB and Citadel are the best (imo). If you like Aria then you are definitely going to enjoy Omega too.

Don't waste your money on Omega. Save it and buy something cheap on Steam instead.

Overlord and Arrival do not have a significant effect in 3, but Arrival does have its special dialogues. Arrival is more worth it than overlord. For ME3, I would recommend Citadel and From the Ashes. For extra story you can get Omega and Leviathan at your own discretion. If you're on PS3, Mass Effect 2 DLCs: Kasumi's Stolen Memories, Overlord, Lair of the Shadow Broker, aren't on the PS Store 'cause they're already disc-based DLCs already.

I have every single DLC besides Pinnacle Station for ME and N7 Warfare Armor for ME3 on PS3. I do have them both on PC though, but having all of the Story based DLCs for ME3 and ME2 besides the Genesis DLCs makes the games' replayability better and more worth it. ME3 will feel super empty without its DLCs.

It really does feel empty without the DLC's now. They kind of bring some of the fun that was missing, not to mention better combat.

Without opening up a tedious debate, I'm going to go ahead and say that this forum as it is tends to be a great deal more 'Renegade' than the player base as a whole, which is no doubt responsible for the popularity of Javik here.

 

If you enjoy very 'Renegade' characters you might like Javik, but otherwise I imagine there's a good chance he'll just come across as irritating.

 

Really? You have to come into a thread and intentionally start crap?

Actually I should have referred to your first paragraph as the asinine theory. My bad.

Why do you have to be an ass?

Hi everyone. :)

So I'm thinking of purchasing a few DLCs for Mass Effect 2 and 3. I'm currently going through my Mass Effect 2 playthrough and will be moving on to my second Mass Effect 3 playthrough. I've got a limited amount of money on me so I've got a limited amount of DLC that I can purchase.

So far I'm definitely going to be purchasing the Kasumi DLC for Mass Effect 2. If I were to purchase one other for Mass Effect 2, which would you recommend it be? I want one that will make a big positive impact on my Mass Effect 3 playthrough. I've heard that Lair of the Shadow Broker is a good one but I'd like to see what all of you think. (I understand this should be posted in the Mass Effect 2 section but this relates to both games, and mainly Mass Effect 3.)

I currently have purchased no DLC for Mass Effect 3 either. Which ones do you all think are the best and worth buying, and which ones and the least worth buying? I want the ones that have a good affect on the story and are a real good addition to my playthrough. Feel free to leave a list from the ones you think are most worth buying, to the ones you think are least worth buying.

Thanks.

hmm I'd say either LotSB or Zaeed for ME2. LotSB is easily the most entertaining DLC in ME2, and well, Zaeed is another squadmate (and imo, an awesome one)

ME3 is much easier. Javik, because again, it's another character (and one of the best in the entire trilogy....if not the best single game performance of any squadmate in all 3 games). Or....Leviathan, because it is basically the Reaper origin story. It's got pretty awesome atmosphere.


As for the characters, I've never been of the mind that I have to agree with a particular character in order for them to be awesome in my opinion. Everybody is their own person. Javik and Zaeed are two of the more unique squadmates. Besides, I never respected a lackey who just agrees with everything I say and sees everything my way. Javik and Zaeed make no apologies. And they certainly add different perspectives.

Anyways: my 2cents. I'm not the biggest fan of most of the DLC, but Shadow Broker is pretty nice. I'm indifferent about liara but it was probably the closest to being well worth the money you fork out for it. Things like Omega.................no, not so much.

OP, if you're only going to get one other DLC for ME2, apart from Kasumi, then LotSB should be the one.

 

For ME3 I'd rank Citadel at the top, then Leviathan, then From the Ashes. I just couldn't imagine playing the game without Javik, but if you're on a budget and something has to be omitted, then so be it.

Lair of the Shadow Broker for ME2. Don't buy Arrival as it's bad. Overlord if you're buying a second DLC for ME2.

 

For ME3 it really depends. If you want lore-heavy stuff, Leviathan and From Ashes. Javik is one of the best characters in the trilogy, so I'd actually recommend From Ashes over Leviathan, as a lot of Leviathan is just fleshing out what the Extended Cut Catalyst convo says.

 

Citadel is the best bang for your buck though. A ton of character stuff, along with a light-hearted plot and a surprising amount of combat through the Armax Arena. It's really just the main plot and after-party in Citadel that are joke-y, the individual character scenes the DLC adds are stellar.

 

If combat is REALLY your thing, then get Omega, but if you're strapped for cash then my recommendations are Shadow Broker, From Ashes, Citadel, in some order.

Arrival is... interesting, while all the other DLCs are side stories Arrival is like ME2.5. A few important (although short) story elements happen there and it provides a lot of context for the beginning of ME3, in my opinion ME3's beginning is hurt by not playing the DLC. Having said that it is one of the less popular DLCs, there's very little character interaction as Shepard is all on his lonesome (which is great if you love the combat).

 

I enjoyed it for its combat sections and the tone of Shepard racing against time by himself.

I dunno what it is about it, but Arrival was my least favorite ME2 DLC ... oops wait, I forgot Firewalker, but I can't be faulted for that can I?

With Gibb Editor only if you're on PC, makes all the ME2 DLCs go down the drain, but what fun is that? I'd say Kasumi and LOTSB are the only DLCs that you should consider apart from the Cerberus Network DLCs which includes minor things along with Zaeed.

I'd rate everything except the Firewalker Pack above Arrival, but I always consider it necessary for my playthrough to better serve ME3's prologue. I admit that I don't particularly care for Overlord that much either. I'd probably hate it if not for the ending where I get to save David Archer and get the cameo in ME3.
