 Well by now everyone has beaten the game for the 100th time, going through the game with every possible combination of dialog choices. So were getting bored of the game. Don't get me wrong its a good game. But now we are relying on DLC to keep up engaged in mass effect. And well, I don't see any damn DLC so far. If Bioware wants to keep us engaged in ME2 until ME3 comes out, they better be shhhiting DLC out their asses so that a new 5 hours worth of gameplay are available to download every week. But I dont think thats gonna happen. Hmm if only there was multiplayer.

No, not every game needs multiplayer. Look what happen to Bioshock, 2 sucks compared to the first one because they focused on the multi (while it was fun, it was not needed) and the story just plained suck.

[Jalem001]

So you're saying that you played the hell out of the game non-stop until you had come up with every combination of outcomes possible...and now you're disappointed that you're bored with it?

[rabbitchannel]

Nah, not yet. Once I play all the classes, probably. I've already done 4 runs with different characters. I estimate... 5-7 runs. I may suddenly tire after the 5th. d:



At least it's not like DA:O. If you play it the first time as one class you already know what it would be like to play the other classes as your companions are almost exact copies. Killed replayability for me and I only completed it thrice.

Multiplayer is a cancer that's destroying shooters.

That was kinda inevitable.  There was no reason to go back to Rapture, especially not as a big daddy.  It was forced, the multiplayer had nothing to do with it.  In fact it might of been better if they had just gone with the story in the Multiplayer and let us play in rapture as its being torn apart by civil war.

Co-op would work. Only one Shep though, other players would control team members. I'd like to have a reliable backup for a change instead of that rotten AI.

MW 2's multiplayer is insanely popular though. Not that I play it. d:

[sepir]

Hopefully Dragon Age: Origins arrives soon so I have something to play whilst waiting for DLC's and ME3. ME2 was so addictively good it felt too short.



Also no multiplayer. I'd (selfishly) rather have them focus on additional story.

[ILALQ]

Wouldn't mind a co-op, but no multi.



As for getting tired? Nah, I'm only on my second play.. well 2nd and a half.. tried a male shep.. just couldn't finish it. So I've got insanity playthroughs to do for every class except for infiltrator. I'll probably tire of it after that.

Booo on multiplayer. ME is just lovely without it.

That being said, I am suffering from ME withdrawals. What the game companies really need to do is to make more single player RPGs that aren't fantasy-based/JRPGs. I've played ME1, ME2, and Fallout 3 to death and now can't find anything to fill the void.

I feel Halo 2 is proof that when they focus on multiplayer, the campaign goes to the dogs... I really don't understand why, either... I mean, why would writers suddenly start pumping out garbage, it's not like they have anything to do with multiplayer anyway? Oh well.



I agree with the OP though that significant amounts of DLC to liven up the universe in the game would be nice right about now. I hate to admit it, but I kinda miss the explorable worlds. It was fun to find Thorians, Starship Troopers-esque sidequests, little side plots with Cerberus, the mysterious Prothean ruins and the trinket activating a genetic memory, etc. The side quests in part 2 are great, but they lack subplot, I feel. Unlike most I actually loved the main story/quest line in ME2 (reminded me of the Doolittle raid or something to that effect), but the thing that sucks is that there are none of those fun side plots besides the character loyalty ones which -- to me -- don't cut it so much.

No I haven't got bored of it yet and no multiplayer ever.

I totally agree!  I actually just brought dragon age but I'm having a very hard time getting into the fantasy world (same with Oblivion when I got that, though I eventually learned to like it).  The thing with me is, I find knights, medieval times, roman times, etc. so fascinating and awesome as-is without all this magic and potions and make believe worlds and species thrown in there, ya know?  Why can't there be an RPG that's just like about Hungarian/austrian knights, archers, bards, etc. facing the onslaught of the ottoman turks, or something?

I don't mean to knock fantasy and say everything should be 100% naturalistic fiction, because that would be horrible too, but I'm just saying that the whole orcs-elves-humans-dwarves in almost every single story-driven games out there gets kind of olddddd.  I miss the days when you had huge variety.. .Space Quest, King's Quest, Police Quest, Gabriel Knight, Sam and Max, Maniac Mansion, Wing Commander, etc. etc. etc.  Good times.

[Beeno4Life]

I am getting bored of some of the loyalty missions. Mainly Thane's. Every other part is still immensely enjoyable. Especially the suicide mission. I would start another playthrough JUST to play that one mission again.

I don't have interest in multiplayer, but have never tried it.  Why do you say this?

Almost every FPS these days has to have mutiplayer or a good multiplayer or else a legion of pre-pubescent will complain about it and the game will ahve poor sales. And in the case that they do implement multiplayer, the singleplayer sucks.

[screwoffreg]

After blowing through a game a few times, I usually give it a good 3-6 months to "refresh" if not more. I recently picked up DA Origins in anticipation for Awakenings (I have not played since early Jan) and found that I was actually paying attention to the dialogue again. Most games need a good breather, but for a single player game like ME 2 to give me about 92 hours of gameplay with the addition of new DLC in the next several months...well, its worth it.

[wolfsite]

Still playing it and I've also gone back to Mass Effect 1 on higher difficulties since I never went beyond regular difficulty when I played it previously ( Can't believe I'm still finding new things to do in that game).

I was wondering the same thing myself.  I'd love to play a historical fiction-based RPG. 

[DragonFire6464]

I have played MW 2 and found that it was a good game in its own right and the multiplayer was very enjoyable.

But implanting multiplayer in the Mass Effect series would be huge mistake.

Mass Effect is a single player game, by adding in multiplayer, they probably would not have as much time developing the story which in turn would ruin the game.

[LOLandStuff]

If I want a multiplayer, I go play Unreal Tournament or Quake.
There are other games you can try and not wait for DLC, maybe craze for why you have to wait 2 years until ME3.
It's called a life. Besides gaming there is the sunny outside, you should try it, it won't burn your eyes.

I beat it twice, one paragon/vanguard and one renegade/infiltrator (I do have a job/wife.. and even then I played when I was on vacation) and have yet to do most of the side quests.  I am currently doing a speedrun of ME1 (I bought it in Jan 2010... so when I beat it I ran out and got ME2 immediatly).

It shocks me that anyone would beat it as many as some here.  I beat it twice and I am far from bored.  I can't think how many hours I have got out of my 80$ so far... probably some of the most quality gaming hours for the money I can think of.  

You may be bored now... but think of the time you put in.  If God of War 3 is anything like GOW1 or 2... I will beat it once... and that would be it.

No multiplayer. 5 hours of new content a week, while it would be cool, is unnecesary. If you like Mass Effect, you don't constantly need new stuff. It's cool, but I'm interested in the game and the setting and the story. I'd rather wait for ME3 to complete the trilogy than have possibly rushed dlc that might not fit with what they're working on for ME3.



If all else fails, stop for a month and then play again with the new dlc. I haven't played ME2 in two weeks and I'm still doing alright. This eye twitch is a little concerning, but nothing worth worrying over I'm sure.
