Mass Effect 2

Seriously? It's Mass Effect 2. You know it's amazing. The world, the characters, the story. It's going to be great. Just play it.

10/10 - The Triology is an absolute masterpiece. A must play for all fans of good stories or sci-fi!

Literally my favorite game of all time. Amazing story and companions. I probably re-played this one like 10 times back in 2010-2011 in preparation for Mass Effect 3 and just to see every single scene/interaction.

great game in many ways, so go play it , but not for me
i tried to like mass effect series, but cant get immersed in its plot or combat system

Launching probe, probe away, launching probe, probe away, launching probe, probe away, launching probe, probe away, launching probe, probe away, launching probe, probe away, launching probe, probe away, launching probe.

On a real note, I'd say the strongest parts of the game are the beginning and ending. Most of the side content felt pretty underwhelming. I could have done without all of the recruiting missions and loyalty missions, they all felt pretty much the same. The game could have benefited from integrating squadmates more into both sidequests and the main quests. It is unfortunate that most of what you will be doing in the game is combat, because although the combat is improved from the first game, it's still not engaging enough for the runtime of the game. There is just not enough depth, weapons arent all that interesting, and worst of all enemy AI are dumber than dirt. Almost all enemy types can be dealt with the same way, point your gun and shoot them in the face. There simply is not enough depth in the combat to warrant how frequently they make you engage in it. Shepard can be pretty hit or miss as a character, he does have some good moments. I would have liked to see more drama between squadmates. The hacking minigames are still a pain in the ass, they are not difficult, just mind numbingly tedious. That being said, I still love the mass effect universe and the world building. I'm cautiously optimistic for mass effect 3.

Actually it is good quality action RPG game but whole suicide mission is a big joke. Because you can't direct the scenario to cause some companions' death. For example, Miranda is invincible until the last defence option, which is you led 2 people to fight with boss and while create a group that, covers your back. Before that you could get killed every companion but not Miranda. For cutscene reasons, unfortunately. If you reject the offer of Illusive Man, Miranda will defy him. So "we should make her alive, until that point." That's is horrendous for solid RPG design. To survive everyone, you need to upgrade the ship armor, gun and base defence. Loyalty level is important. Once you do that some random decisions will decide outcome of the last mission. Objectively, ME1 is a better game..

I absolutely LOVED this game. This was my first playthrough and all I can say is that if you enjoyed ME1 then buckle up, because ME2 goes above and beyond its predecessor. The game reunites Shepard with companions from ME1 and introduces you to a whole new assortment of complex and interesting companions. And don't even get me started on the suicide mission finale; I was sitting on the edge of my chair the entire time. I could not recommend this series enough.
