Volourn Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 "Yes, that is probably correct. However, it is irrelevant since everything will play the same (poorly) and asides from (perhaps) a brief side dialogue with one of your team mates or minor comments on you being a robot, the story will march on, unstopped, because Bioware is incapable of writing anything but the most linear and derivative drek where the only serious difference that will occur based on your choices is the ending." Why does ME2 matter to you? You can't be thinking of buying/playing ti right since you loathe ME1, right? RIGHT? Are we relaly gonna have to read post after post of you bashing the game? Just move on to games you actually like or might like? Why torture yourself? P.S. ME IS AWESOME! ME WILL BE AWESOMER! ME > U DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 If being evil/geth/robotic will make Shepard's voice actor sound less human, as in give him some robotic sound modifier or something, that might be great. Maybe it'll make the voice actor more bearable. "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"

Are we relaly gonna have to read post after post of you bashing the game? Just move on to games you actually like or might like? Why torture yourself? "You don't like it, why are you posting?" is a terrible argument, just FYI. Sorry to burst your bubble about the quality of this game. It will be bad unless Bioware takes the lessons of Mass Effect, which is unlikely since fanboys like yourself slobber all over them and their bad games and awful stories. Beyond which, I have played through many subpar games, from start to finish, and will probably do so in the future. I even acquire some measure of enjoyment from it, though I don't become a fanboy like yourself who can't bear to hear that his bad favorite game is bad. You might call it my one weakness.
Volourn Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Hey, at least, I don't waste time and money and games I hate. In fact, I prefer spending time on games I like. Consider it my weakness. R00fles! P.S. I'm off to play that 3rd perosn shooter known as Fallout. R00fles! DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.

Meshugger Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 I understand the "haha" by trying to do a homage the original Terminator movie, but did they really have to rip off the bathroom-scene where The Terminator reveals his red eye right down to the facial expression? Sheesh.

alanschu Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 I don't know the story of Mass Effect, but if that had just happened to him/it, it's probably not that unusual to expect them to look into the mirror to examine it.

Bos_hybrid Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 Apparently, the picture is what an ME2 Shepherd can look like, but you have to be a jerk(Renegade). IGN Article If this is true and not horse manure, I'll be extremely happy with that Saren/T-800 Shep.

Jaesun Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 I am actually looking forward to Mass Effect 2 and the writing Patrick Weeks did on it. I've always enjoyed what he has done so far (Mass Effect 1). Sad that they cut the male+male romance for Mass Effect 2 though. *sigh* Some of my Youtube Classic Roland MT-32 Video Game Music videos | My Music | My Photography

Slowtrain Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 Its interestinng how Bethesda does almost everything wrong in their crpgs, except they don't do romances. It's like the one saving grace. Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.
RPGmasterBoo Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 Imagine a Bethesda romance... I see a wheel: flirt, grab tit, bribe, tell one-liner. When it shows up in TES5, you'll know who they stole the idea from. Imperium Thought for the Day: Even a man who has nothing can still offer his life
Tel Aviv Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 How about no romances at all? That'd be great. Too true, dude. There's a degree of titillation that feels kinda really superficial and ...I dunno, maybe a little bit cynical? Actually I'm trying to think of a in-game romance done well and I'm coming up spare. Jaheira maybe? She'll always have a special place in my geekish heart.
