![]() It shouldn't be reviewed as an individual product imo.Ī sequel in a trilogy should always appeal to the fans of the previous game/movie (well, as many fans as possible) and stay on the same path (genre, etc.). Mass Effect 2 is not just a game, it's also a sequel to ME1. If you start halfway through a trilogy, you can't say whether it's a good continuation of the trilogy or not. You shouldn’t start with The Two Towers when you’re going to watch the Lord of the Rings trilogy. This is a trilogy we’re talking about and a trilogy starts with the very beginning. Some people might say: “ I liked ME2 but I’ve never played ME1” or “ I liked ME2 and then I tried ME1, but I didn’t like it” While they have the right to voice their opinion and play and enjoy ME2, I think the true fans of ME1 are the ones we should be listening to. The result doesn’t require much guesswork: ME2 will appeal to a new group of gamers and some ME1 fans will be disappointed with these changes. It’s just a fact that they’ve made big changes to the series after 1/3 of the trilogy. It doesn’t matter whether you like these changes or not. In ME2, they removed almost all of the RPG elements, making it even less of a RPG. ME1 was an action game with RPG elements. ME2 is, in many ways, a different game than ME1. Since Mass Effect is a trilogy, and ME2 is a continuation of ME1, you should review ME2 as a sequel to ME1. Not everyone who bought ME2 has completed ME1. But the question you have to ask yourself is: is this game good enough to overlook these flaws? No game is perfect and no game will ever be perfect. Some of you might say: “ But ME1 also has a lot of flaws.” And you’re right. If you haven’t played ME1, you probably won’t understand some of my arguments. I just think it’s a big disappointment if you compare it to ME1. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think ME2 is a bad game. I’ll try to explain why I don’t like ME2 in this blog. Mass Effect 2 is, in my opinion, the most disappointing game I’ve ever played. Warning: This text includes ME1 and ME2 spoilers Warning: This text is going to be very, very long ![]() When this blog is finished, I'm going to post it on some other websites as well (some friends of mine don't understand why I don't like ME2 ). I'm also still rewriting stuff and fixing grammar errors. I'll add some more "minor flaws" and the paragraphs "story problems", "plot holes", "main quests", "side quests", "RPG vs action game" and "ME1 decisions in ME2" soon. ![]()
