Haven't gotten him to sing yet, but I've heard about it. Been talkin' it up with him as much as I can to get him to do it, but he hasn't yet, and I've done his loyalty mission.

I don't really like him though, I find him annoying, and he's worthless in combat. My favorite character is Thane. That dude is such a badass.

EDIT: I just got him to sing, and you're right, that was freakin' hilarious. I made him do it like 10 times. I don't dislike him so much anymore.

Final boss sucked.

Kind of ruined the whole game experience for me.

Like, it wasn't even a challenge. Won't ruin what it was, but yeah, I played on hard, and I beat the last boss on the first try.

Disappointing.

Yeah I'm not there yet, so don't you dare tell me what it is, but I'm already guessing what it is.

And often final bosses in video games are a joke, usually because by then you've gotten all your abilities, leveled as much as you can, upgraded, got your whole team, etc, at least in RPGs... and action games. The final boss in ME1 was also ridiculously easy but I didn't care, I love the combat in this game but the story and characters and everything are what truly shine. Also, how can a last boss being "easy" ruin the entire game for you? That's kind of weird you'd let something as small as that ruin an entire game for you. Seems a bit outrageous if you ask me. Then again, people are always looking for something to complain about.

And if you're finding it too easy, change the difficult to Insanity. Smile 2 hits dead.

I enjoy most of my team though I have favourites.

Mordin Solus is my favourite to interact with on the ship and some of the things he says during missions are excellent. Basically when ever I enter a mission and it has anything to do with listening to monitors I go switch out for Mordin for the odd chance of him saying anything and triggering a paragon gaining discussion (the character has given me so much paragon).

Miranda is great for her slam ability.

I thought Samara would be a good character but she is horrible and without depth. She always drops first.

I havent gotten to the final boss yet. Just got Legion on my team. Hope I still have a while to go before it ends.

I like Samara, I think she's a hell of a lot better than Liana, anyway. Just talk to her between every mission and you'll see she has a lot of depth, she likes to talk a lot. Thane too. I don't really use her on missions, however, it's usually Thane and someone else. Throw Field <3.

And yeah I just got Legion and did his mission as well (everyone's officially loyal to me now). Last main mission I did was the IFF, not sure how far I am from the end, but I'm guessing the Omega-4 relay is coming up soon. I'm gonna stretch it out as much as I can and do even more sidequests. There sure are a lot of 'em.

The phrase "He's a bit of a cloaca" literally made me fall off my couch laughing. I'm not sure why but it was that funny to me.

And as far as the final boss being easy in ME1... I dunno, I was level 38 by the end of the game and I had a bit of trouble getting him down. He just moved too damn fast. But then again I was relatively split between paragon and renegade and couldn't talk him down, so I had to fight him twice.

I think the most difficult adjustment i've had to make is the face that you have limited thermal clips in this game as opposed to the first. Especially with the first two assault rifles.

Heh, I talked him down, but the second fight was still easy, maybe because I was a level 50 soldier. Razz

And I don't mind the thermal clips/ammo. I never really run out of ammo, and if I do there's always a buttload lying around to pick up. I honestly prefer this over the overheating in ME1, even though by the time I was level 50 and had all my upgrades, I could fire my assault rifle for like 5 minutes until it overheated. I can't really complain, though, because I think the combat system is SOOOOOOOOOOOO much better in ME2. Loved it so much right off the bat. Plus the lack of framerate problems this time around made it so much nicer.

Just beat it. I'm at a loss for words. This is without a doubt the most brilliant, most captivating form of entertainment I have ever had the greatest fortune to experience. Bioware has created their greatest masterpiece yet, and I want Mass Effect 3 more badly than any other form of entertainment ever. How come there aren't more video games like this? It's made all other video games look like garbage... I may as well just play this game over and over until ME3 comes out in late 2011.

Oh, and the ending is just... epic. Before the credits rolled, my jaw was dropped and my eyes were watering up and I had goosebumps all over.

Yeah, this hardly ever happens. This game... moved me. Wow. I love you Bioware.

I don't measure the quality of a boss by how many times I died against it. I just remember myself sitting in cover with an Shocked face through it. That was enough for me. It seemed a bit silly, but it still fits.

Also,




That is all.

No idea. Saw it on google reader or reddit or something, I forget which. /v/ has a ton of hilarious ME2 comics and screenshots, I should grab some.

I beat the game, first time Jack died, second time I reloaded a save point an hour earlier and heck I dont know what I did but my team survived, all of them. Though the merc and Jack were both not in loyal status.

Now someone inform me of what has been happening in the real world over the past two weeks.

Nothing important. I'm just glad to see you are typing in full sentences again. Very Happy Razz Laughing
