First off, I could write paragraph after paragraph about the awesomeness of this game, but I'll sum it up in 5 words:
This game is f***ing incredible!
Now that I've played through a few times and tried out all sorts of builds, a few things come up that just don't make any sense. None of these things take away from how awesome the game is.
1-The story.
Nothing like I expected. In ME1 you spend the entire time ignoring your superiors and defying the council in order to bring light to the Reaper plot, which no one believes. The result of no one believing you was that you managed to finally uncover the plot, and barely save the alliance and citadel in an epic battle, while leaving the entire council to its much deserved fate. This mostly could have been avoided if the entire alliance would have devoted resources to the cause, instead of sending a troublesome rookie Spectre into deep space with a "Now that your're all growed up, go play in the sandbox".
After all that happens and everyone cheers and thinks you're a god and the savior of the known universe, you say "Hey, stop partying everyone, Sovereign was just an emissary. There's a whole ARMY of reapers out there trying desperately to wipe out all life in our galaxy! We gotta do something about this!"
So the newly appointed human council, and the alliance in general, says "Right. An army of Reapers. Ok, buddy. Stop smoking the Torfan weed and go kill some geth or something.
So, like a good soldier, you go searching for a few rogue geth and get yourself killed by a bunch of bugs flying a giant space rock, only to be resurrected and under the employ of one of the universe's most atrocious men, The illusive man, or Hitler, if you will. I mean, the only thing nastier than this guy is the Reapers themselves.
2-Reunion with Ashley or Kaiden.
Ashley: Why didn't you try contacting me?
Shepard: I was dead.
Ashley: That's as may be, but the least you could have done was call.
Shepard: What did I ever see in this crazy b***h!?
3-Tali's trial.
Am I the only one that thought that this loyalty mission was a joke? Along side Shepard, she saved her people from galactic conquest at the hands of entities who want to turn all organic life into a Big Gulp of grey sludge. She accomplished a near impossible mission, with Shepard's help again, to discover the fate of a star. All this in order to help and save her own people. Meanwhile, one ship gets taken over by geth, so the Quarians do a little research and...
Quarian 1: "Hey, look at this. Tali mailed her dad a few legs. Lets put her on trial and exile her for ever, on penalty of death if ever she returns
All other Quarians: "Good idea".
So, instead of assembling a task force and storming the infected ship to wipe out all geth, and figure out what the hell this engineer was doing with all these Geth parts he's been receiving over the past 10 years, they decide to ignore the problem and send Tali a message telling her she's on trial, and that she should show up at her convenience so that they can tell her to go away.
Well, I'm glad I got that out of my system. It's been irking be for a while. Yes, it's mindless complaining, I know it. Some may even suggest that It is blasphemy, but what are you gonna do? It is my duty as a human being to complain uselessly.
So, you guys have any story based beefs? Am I the only one, am I taking it too far? Before you guys start flaming and saying:
"It's a video game, don't be so serious".
I know it's a videogame, One that I've enjoyed more than any game since HL2, I think. Which is why it irks me when these turns of story make me go wtf?
