Mass Effect 2! (no spoilers please)

[Gravekeeper]

ME2 is 100% about the story. I actually like the shift from inventory management to a technology unlock system. All I need worry about is keeping an eye out for new goodies and my squad's payload before a mission, and my own armour set up.

I do have a FemShep on hold for Jacob but my first Fem is all about the Liara

Ehhh....how do I put this without spoilers? Ok, very minor spoilers.

Neither Liara nor Ashley will join your crew. I had Ashley from ME1 as the love interest and the reunion was catastrophic. I only recently found Liara ( she's quite a ways into the game, fair warning. I found her around the 20 hour mark. ) and she's not the Liara you knew is all I'll say.

I'll admit while I was holding out for Tali, it was still a lot of fun to tease Jack. Definitely need a second play through for Jack.

Also, Mordin is awesome. I've been bringing him with me on more and more missions just for the commentary.

Woohoo I'm loving it already, Mainly cause of the Voice Artists, Adam Baldwin, Claudia Black, Steve Blum, Keith David, Jennifer Hale amongst others!

Also does anyone know a way to shut up the objective indicator? It's flashing like hell all the time and making an annoying sound too.

Claudia Black? I haven't heard her anywhere nor was she listed under the credits. I caught Grey Delise ( BG 2 Viconia ). Don't recall his name, but Grunt is Oghren from Dragon Age. Caught Michael Dorn in there too. Worf makes a good Krogan.

Loving Martin Sheen as the Illusive Man though.

Grunt/Oghren is Steve Blum, Claudia Black voices someone called Admiral Xen.

Nevermind, it appears it was happening because I had dual screens running,. set it to single and it fixed it.

Well I knew that they didn't join the crew. But I also heard they'll be back in ME3. So unless Liara tells my FemShep she never wants to see her again and if she does she'll peel her face off with a vegetable peeler, this particular FemShep is gonna hold out on the off chance the romance can be resumed in ME3.

I get a lovely windows unexpected error crash when I hit start from the launcher :/

Reinstalled, all appears fine, downloading fun stuffs.

Given the way she is and direct references to Mass Effect 3 IN THE GAME, either scenario is possible.

That was Claudia Black? Wow, that wasn't her trademark voice at all.

Considering how things went with Ash, the vegetable peeler scenario would not surprise me. Though admittedly Liara is much less of a biznitch then Ash can be. Ash went for the throat the second I opened my mouth. ><


Mordin + Gilbert & Sullivan = <3

If you're on PC, avoid walls at all cost, cause you seem to be able to clip into them quite easily.

Walls aren't my bane on the PC, low laying ledges are. Never had a problem with walls. But there's a few places in the early missions where seemingly innocuous bumps in the ground have propelled me 20 feet up.

Haven't had it happen in a while though, seems to just be a couple rough edges in the early game.

Absolutely 0 crashes so far however.

[Sarlon]

well....after playing it ALLL day today, I learned LOTS of things....

but since this is a spoiler free thread I'll refrain.

all I CAN say though is I LOVE the collector's weapon you gain in one mission....mmmmm SMEXY!

Particle Beam?

I'm rather fond of the Cain myself. Even if it takes a while to get enough ammo. Its worth it just for my own personal nuke.

[Sarlon]

does anyone beside me think the illusive man is a prick? if he changes his tune in either direction, I haven't gotten there yet (for those further along then I)....but I'm starting to REALLY hate him.

[RayvenQ]

I'm starting to think he's responsible for a ton of stuff.

Also one minor thing that annoys me is that you can't seemingly have a tinted visor, the rebreather helmet just isn't as intimidating as it could be.

Here's something that's not a part of the storyline:
Go to Local Cluster
Travel to Uranus
Scan for minerals
Launch a probe
Listen to what EDI says (You'll have to do it twice)
