I don't want to complain here, but I'll just say the changes the devs made to ME2 weren't my cup of tea. I'm not that interested in shooters, I wanted more dialogue with squadmates I was not romancing (and by being faithful on all my characters, I missed a lot), the story was disjointed by the mission format and didn't carry the overall plot forward...in my opinion. I did like the new characters, and there are tons of funny, entertaining moments in ME2, but I wish that the game was more like ME1 in general. But that's just my preference, I'm an old school RPG and adventure
gamer, new fangled shooters aren't my style.
I agree with you again. I'm an old RPG gamer, pen and paper first and pc afterwards, and I thought that ME2 was not all I had expected it to be. Graphically it was amazing, and that kinda mellowed me down alot cause I am addicted to graphics, but other than that I would have liked a less linear style, for example not being forced to kill half the abductees if I went around actually playing some of the game with Legion, instead of just running in to the suicide as soon as I got him. I guess it was the same with DAO in a sense. I would have liked some deeper relationships, more like the ones you get in DAO, the more you interact with people, the more their opinion of you changes, instead of go help everybody with a big whoopie problem and then everyone loves you, and actually needing to do that to survive the suicide, it's just forcing you to do things in a certain way.
I kept the ME1 romance too, and got stuck with pining over Kaidan's picture, but since I'm a curious cow, I romanced Thane up to the suicide just to see the cutscene that I had been made aware is really cheesy and nice. It is. It was a big temptation not to ditch Kaidan right there and then, just cause I was mad at the game only giving such a very short and unsatisfactory meeting/resolution on Horizon. That Horizon meeting almost made me give up the game entirely. I guess I'm too attached to my femshep. LOL
Ok, i guess I'm spamming aint I. I'll zip it now. Glad to get it off my chest though.
