MASS EFFECT 2 (Zero Punctuation)

[@physe8052]

"Jetpacks! And huge wolves that shoot lasers out of their mouths." Switch out giant wolves for giant metal snakes and you basically have Mass Effect: Andromeda.

[@raggedcritical]

True. Me:A was buggy as hell but you could definitely have some fun with the combat. It's just a shame that everything that wasn't the main story was so undercooked and the animation was shite. Also the new aliens were so cringily "woke" and self-superior - and that's coming from someone that reads Kotaku.

@@Mr_T_Badger During the development of ME1 even, but luckily most of the game was already done.

[@Trooper10231]

"Sky is blue, birds fly, water is wet, Bioware games have good writing." This line is PAINFULLY ironic hearing it after the shitshow that is the writing of ME:A. "Bring back the planetary exploration, but let you navigate with JET PACKS..." I just can't stop crying. The irony is so thick...

[@TheCorrodedMan]

It wasn’t _that_ bad. Like the Gor books, give the story to a new, more competent and experienced writer and it can easily be redeemed.

[@jackschwartz9419]

+archer2181 so would that make the Reapers or the Illusive Man the devil? (My vote is the Illusive Man.

Wanna know the one thing that made me love ME2? Mordin.

[@havingteawithghosts9021]

Never has a character made me question my own sense of morality to such extents. May have not been a love interest to me, but conversations with him always made my feelings bounce back and forth.

[@catiseith]

Shaun Friden And more importantly... he sings Gilbert and Sullivan!

[@anthonydeadman]

CaitSeith Truly he was the very model of a Scientist Salarian.

[@catiseith]

***** Speaking of scientist salarians, something curious happened to me. In my first ME2 play I lost Mordin in the last mission. When I played ME3, I imported that career. The game pretty much reminded me several times where Mordin was supposed to be if he had survived in ME2, and that I got a replacement instead (to the point of Joker calling him "not-Mordin").

[@anthonydeadman]

CaitSeith Yeah the game pretty much tells you that ME2 is *not* where Mordin's life was supposed to end. Besides Mordin had to be the one to cure the genophage. Do you know why?

[@ShogunTurnip]

I found resource mining much more tolerable after I upgraded the scanner, put on a podcast and occasionally notice that some of the planets look like Malteasers.

[@AgentCamtho1]

Mass Effect 2 earns a spot as my favourite game Aside from the fact I love a good story, I have never been as panicked as I was in the Suicide Mission, with the game having spent the whole run-time occasionally reminding me "By the way, keep preparing, because EVERYONE can die"

[@jackschwartz9419]

+Agent Camtho Agreed. Although for me The Witcher 3 is a very close second, ME 2 had a larger variety of playstyles, some of the best written characters in any game I've ever played, managed to blend the best aspects of action and roll playing in a way that didn't feel like either was really suffering, dived deeper into the lore of its universe in some very interesting ways, and of course the pure thrill of the suicide mission.

[@Cpt_nice]

+Agent Camtho Not my favorite game of all time, but def in the top 5 and it;s the best Mass Effect game

[@kylele23]

ME2's suicide mission. God damn. I only lost poor Grunt during it, and the krogans in ME3 didn't let me forget it. Fantastic game though, I'm commander Shepard and this is my favorite game in the citadel.

[@noisykestrel]

+deedeeke1991 The second game in a trilogy is often the best

[@7352846292736191]

I'm a huge fan of a way it uses the collectors. You run into them three times, they're tougher than the other enemies, and when they show up the first two times it interrupts whatever you were doing and forces you to fight them, ready or not. When you get to the suicide mission, not only are you saving the Galaxy, you're sticking it to the bastards who kept interrupting you

[@kOfTheQ]

But, but I was good at driving the Mako. I used the booster in turns to spin about and smack Colossus' in the face, and launch armatures into lava. I'd pancake geth troopers, and dodge rockets.

[@rocksteel9238]

Well at least it will be back for Mass effect 4

[@kOfTheQ]

Robert Barton So long as I get my preservation of momentum, I'm happy.

[@rocksteel9238]

kequilla Personally in terms of verhicle controls I hope it controls like the batmobil did in Rocksteady's Arkham Knight Gameplay demo

[@MrsHalloweenJack]

kequilla Dude... I'm impressed. My own battle style while onboard the Mako involved as much loops and spins as a passive agressive-ballerina- you seem to be using it quite efficiently. As infuriating as the Mako can be to drive, especially in a first playthrough, I guess I don't hate it that much. To me its lack of maneouvrability is part of the immersion, somewhat: it's a military space vehicle, and it looks like it's been concieved with practicality in mind. It's sturdy, and built to function on planets with very different soils, relief and climatic conditions. You wouldn't expect it to control like a sleek urban car.

[@sasy11110]

MrsHalloweenJack I'm playing ME1 on ps3 and I really like the Mako. It's not difficult at all to manoeuvre it.

[@MURFGAMING1228]

We'll never forget you Captain Gobblecoque!

[@royalcityman]

I've never played this series until recently. Then I played ME1 and found it packed with content, dedicated voice acting, excellent writing and interactive scripting. ME2 is all that and so much more. These things noticeably absent in modern games. Not to mention volume. Some games you play for 3 hours and you are done. ME2 is like 30 times that. I found the combat adequately challenging on 'Normal'...with multiple facets and combinations needed to succeed. This game is the Holy Grail of storytelling, interaction and function. I picked it up on Steam for $24 . Seriously. I feel like I should send Bioware the difference for a full price game out of guilt.

[@newflesh666]

ME2 is, imo, the best of the trilogy. While it's not perfect, pretty much everything works exceptionally well. it massively improves on a lot of flaws of ME1 and the story is excellently written and paced. ME3 further improves on gameplay, but the story isn't as good as ME2, the "live service" galaxy at war system is kinda tedious, and the ending is underwhelming at best (the citadel DLC is absolutely perfect though)

[@jackschwartz9419]

I can't shake the thought that The Illusive Man is supposed to be symbolic of EA (takes the good guy under their wing, and while they both offer a lot of benefits to said good guy their pasts made trusting them difficult)

[@UnintellegentDesigns]

+Jack Schwartz and then in the end they both cut out all the interesting bits of you and replace it with shower hoses and laser pointers so as to better control you. Oh wait, should that have had a spoiler alert?

[@MagnusVictor2015]

Someone other than me created the perfect text for this. I'll repeat it here: "The pattern has repeated itself more times than you can fathom.

They exist because we allow it, and will end because we demand it."

creepy pfp, where from?

[@MysteriumArcanum]

Did this happen to anyone else? I had just finished Jack's loyalty mission and as soon as we set foot on the Normandy Miranda comes out of nowhere and decides it'd be a good idea to start shit and fling insults at Jack for seemingly no fucking reason. The pisser being that I had done Miranda's loyalty mission RIGHT before Jack's; I can't quite remember what I said to Miranda to resolve the issue but I like to imagine I told her to apologize to Jack or I'd throw her shapely ass out the airlock.

[@majorl2246]

Yeah. That always happens when you complete both their loyalty missions. When it happens you have a few options. If your Paragon/Renegade scores aren't high enough, you have to take a side. Whoever's side you don't take will be angry and lose their loyalty. If either Paragon/Renegade is high enough, you can resolve the matter without losing either Jack or Miranda's loyalty. You can try to regain lost loyalty, but it's VERY difficult.

[@MysteriumArcanum]

Yeah, I remember now, I didn't have either renegade or paragon high enough so I increased my paragon. Still wish there was an option to threaten to throw Miranda out the airlock, the Cerberus cheerleader bosh'tet

[@gin9410]

[@VicariousReality7]

MrFirewolf18 I really find it hard to like miranda so sad that jack is dead by default in 3

[@MysteriumArcanum]

VicariousReality7 Did you fail Jack's loyalty mission in ME 2 or pick the wrong role for her in the suicide mission? Because she's alive and well in ME3, she appears at Grissom Academy. But yea, I agree with you, fuck Miranda; the Cerberus cheerleader Bosh'tet.

[@MeeesterBond17]

2:49 Oh dear... you played it on Normal difficulty, didn't you, Yahtzee? (shakes head sadly) For those who are unaware, Mass Effect 2 difficulty translates into normal games like this: Veteran = Normal Normal = Easy Easy = Play it one-handed if you want to be interested. :P also: Hardcore = Damn, this taxes my ability and patience! Insanity = Hiding in cover and crying like a small child will not help, but I'm doing it anyway.

[@MeeesterBond17]

Nuthead 611 Heh, I tried it, it seemed to me like it's just about finding the optimal cover spots, waiting for the enemy to stop shooting and timing your powers/shots accordingly without leaving cover too much... I could be wrong, or just really bad at the game, but I prefer to get stuck in and give it some beans with the M-76 or Carnifex, as they're both damn fun weapons - I couldn't do that above Hardcore, though. Kept getting my arse shot to shreds. :,( ...actually, yeah, I'm probably just bad. But I am always bad with style. ^^

[@MeeesterBond17]

Nuthead 611 Nice job! :) Yeah, Harbinger is a pain in the neck even when you can just spray him down with incendiary ammo. :S Ah, Infiltrator - I have yet to try ME2 with that, I tend to go Soldier/Vanguard, tried Adept and wasn't a big fan of it... hahaha, oh, I am enjoying it... :D *loads another thermal clip* (the sound of insane laughter and full-auto gunfire fades into the distance...)

[@MeeesterBond17]

Nuthead 611 Hmm, memories... me playing Hardcore Vanguard: "Come on and *SLAM* (charges a Krogan) and welcome to the JAM - ARGH WTF WHY DID YOU TAKE NO DAMAGE!?!?! (tries the Scimitar shotgun, but not at point blank, so the damage is much lower) IT'S USELESS!!!" (ded) I Rest In Pasta. :P

Eh, not really. If you do sidequests, and use the interrupt system, there are enough points of both types on offer that you are rarely, if ever, railroaded into one choice or the other at any specific point to meet the breakpoint requirements, and I never even got the DLC missions which added more points to the available pool

[@VitalSigns1288]

Honestly, I prefer the planet scanning. There is no was to beat the thresher maw that always spawns and what you end up with is going down to the planet, dying several times, then giving up with no reward. but Yahtzee doesn't do justice to just how bad the tank thing was, not only were you on a bounce castle, it also controlled like ass as well. Instead of controlling the car relative to the wheels like every other game ever made ever, you controlled the direction the car was facing relative to the field of view, so if you want to turn the gun to the right, in order to do a strafing run you would have to push the control stick to the left, which made driving a pain. The controls where you take cover were also ass, you walk up to a wall then after walking directly into the wall for a few seconds Shepard finally glues himself to the wall. So, you end up in a scenario where if you wish to take cover it is rather difficult and if you simply want to move along the wall you'll end up with many frustrating deaths as Shepard sticks to the wall instead of just moving it. I'm glad they fixed this in ME2 where you press a button to take cover and if you didn't press it you can run around without having to worry about getting too close to the wall. Then at ME3 you have one of the best control schemes where you can sprint to the wall, then do a summer salt into said wall and stick to it ready to have a go at the shooting gallery. All the while they made the powers work much more intuitively, as you're able to move, shoot, and throw powers all smoothly, making insanity mode a possibility.

[@dedicateddark]

navid sarshar Nope, mass effect 2: extremely crappy animations(also, completly scrapped female shepard animations), a lame story which broke what they made in 1, very lame rpg, immersion breaking loading screens and mission end screens, dialogue writing became worse, no inventory, items became shit, tactics became useless. Rest all is better in Mass effect 2, but the soul is lost, 3 was a somewhat experience which I rate above 2 but still lacked a bit.

[@frignes3323]

Noble Alfred I really loved ME1 but i do think the side story missions were a bit better done on ME2. Taking you to different planets with a different little sci fi gimmick and didn't put you into that weird bouncy castle on wheels.

[@dedicateddark]

***** 2 felt really disconnected. Yea even I concur 2 did do side missions better. But, the entire game kind of felt pointless as more than half the game you spent recruiting useless companions and then another half doing shit for them.

In the first game, when you hit the max for firing time on a gun, you had to sit around waiting for it to cool down, which took an technically short but still annoyingly long time, but in the second game, when your gun overheats, you eject a thermal clip to immediately cool it, so yes, it's an upgrade

The thing that I loved about Mass Effect 2, was how it made me change how I felt. I spent the entirety of the first Mass Effect and a bit of 2 trying to get it on with Liara, but to no avail. And halfway through Mass Effect 2, Kelly told me about how Tali wanted to be more than friends, and that just turned everything around for me. And so I spent Mass Effect 3 gushing over her, and blatantly ignoring Liara, only to realise that she quite obviously wanted the D at this point. Just when things go to well for me, there's always something to bite me in the ass.

In hindsight, it's creepy how spot-on this guy was about his reviews. The planet scanning _was_ a good attempt by the makers to further immerse you in the whole space exploration thing but it got REALLY annoying after the first few systems. Fortunately back then, developers actually _listened_ to players or took the beta testers seriously instead of a worshiping a bottom line financial projection. And in the 3 installment of the game they FRICKKIN' nailed that aspect of the game to (you guessed) the FRICKKIN' WALL!!

[@horrorfan13666]

The way I see it, the ammo system actually allows greater sustained fire. In ME1 you could fire all you want until your weapon overheated, and then your weapon was useless for several seconds while it cooled down. Using the thermal clips, once the clip had absorbed as much heat as it could take (ammo down to 0 ), you just switch out the clip. Small time difference, but it was easier to plan for, and you could reload outside of battle, lowering the chance that you'd be left defenceless.

While I recognize there are a number of things which this game did excellently, and at times I was enjoying it immensely, I also found some of the flaws royally pissed me off. Until I came here I could not find anyone who even offhandedly mentioned them, so thank you b/c this was the cathartic experience I needed. Though I must say one thing was missed, and that is the overall amount of the game that you can simply lose access too, if you don't constantly/obsessively scroll through a guide whilst playing. There is a finite amount of exp, money, morality points, and a gigantic list of things that are only accessible, and are easy to miss, during a particular quest. Not to mention the fact that your morality meters mean nothing, because you're rated on how many points you could have scored, based on which areas you have explored, thus diluting your actual score every time you go anywhere new. The worst is that these are easily resolvable, completely unnecessary flaws, which ruin something that is otherwise great.
