Picked it up the other day. It's awesome. I absolutely love. Not to spoil, but the galaxy is apparently a very small place. Anyone else have it?
I've read about it on /v/ <.< but I haven't played it, altough the original was awesome. Is it true that the decisions you made in the first game isn't saved in the sequel?
Uh. Depends on what you do. You can import your ME1 char and it pretty much has everything to do with anything. Like...You'll run into your old love interest, whether or not you killed the Council, even how you treated Conrad Verner. If you make a brand new character, most of it is chosen for you aside from your background.
I have it but i sadly havnt beaten the first one, i wont play it till i beat the first one, and i love the way it looks from the videos so i cant wait.
Oh man, incredible game. I'm not very far but my room mate is kicking ***. Fantastic game. The 'interrupts" add so much
I'm often very negative in my criticism when it comes to games, even more so with popular titles... And this is no exception: The combat is fine, but after a time it get's so repetitive I feel like I'm only ploughing through it to enjoy the amazing acting and vividly animated scenes. The mini-games on the other hand becomes so incredible boring and repetitive it almost destroys the entire experience. The guys that made Civilization wrote something about this 10 years ago, the reason mini-games suck is because they take focus away from the actual game, you lose the "immersion", that sense of being there in the middle of things. In ME2 it completely destroys the immersion if you in the middle of a fight have to play a game of memory, then to add that the fights were pretty repetitive to begin with. It's apparent that the mini-games are meant to do just that in ME2, take focus away from the fighting, like they thought it was a good idea. I would much rather have seen much more depth be put in the combat-system and complete removal of all the mini-games. It's sad that this is what gaming seem to be going towards: Dumber game-play and more mini-games to distract you, mark my words, in SC3 you'll be playing a click-game to collect minierals, don't ask how it makes sense because no mini-game ever does 7/10, if I hadn't responded to the story: 5/10. Hopefully in time for ME3 they will have made mods to remove the mini-games and I can have a epic play-through where every tiny choice affects the whole plot over what 100 hours in space
So, after a few more hours, I can safely say that Mordin, the Salarian scientist is my favourite character. Ever. In any game. Absolutely phenomenal acting. Truly, the lines of what's considered art is getting extremely blurry.
Necro, I know, but I've got a question if anyone has an idea. Is it possible to import save files between steam ME2 and disc ME1 (or the other way)?
I'd imagine so, yes. I believe they both save into Documents>Bioware...You could prolly either just paste it into the Steam import folder or vice versa if Seam saves it somewhere else. Don't think so though, cause most my Steam games save into My Documents.
