A lot of people complain about how there's only one dialogue from each squadmate when you continue playing after the suicide mission. Honestly, I was pleasantly surprised that the feature was included in the first place, and didn't even expect the dialogue lines from the crew. On a canonical playthrough I imagine you'd go through and 100% the game before getting the IFF and going through the relay.

Honestly, they had to choose between letting you continue to play, but locking you out of content (if they removed all references to the suicide mission you would miss out on a lot of ship conversations that mention it in passing, as well as quests tangentially related to the Collectors). They'd have to block any of the Illusive Man DLC too. I just look at it as a cool bonus, and it makes it easier for them to release DLC without everyone have to load a save from before they beat the game to play it.

I just think that people who expected BioWare to completely change almost every aspect of the gameworld for a neat bonus feature are a little spoiled. It's not a big deal.

i'm extremely disappointed because you werent able to play ME3 directly after finishing ME2 suicide mission.

Hahah. Yes, I agree. That is what everyone's argument about this boils down to.

I agree. I was also pleasantly surprised that I didn't just go back to the main menu after finising th game. My only complaint is that I need to leave N7 missions uncompleted until after I've finished the main game in order to both save my crew and get all dialogues with Legion.



But that is a separate issue and has more to do with poor placement of the "point of no return."

Yeah, I always saw it as the same thing as the one in DAO: so many people complained about having to replay part of the game in ME1 to get to the DLC, so they just made sure you could play after the end. I doubt anything about that post suicide-mission time frame is going to be all that canon.

Very true. Some things "would have been nice", such as Anderson having something new to say. But stopping at a single comment from surviving squad members makes sense.

Yeah, the first thing I wanted to do was to go back to Anderson and say "alright - DONE!" but I wasn't surprised or disappointed that it wasn't there.

I was pleasantly surprised that it let you continue playing after the credits in the first place.

It's withdrawal. The entire thing is such a wild ride, and it ends with a much more decisive cliffhanger. You're just left thinking "oh god...how long till I can get more?"

I kind of still wish that we had a little more, but the fact that we did get anything is swell enough. I assume I might be satiated with DLC that bridges ME2 to ME3, but it continuing solely in ME3 seems more likely.
