mass effect 2 (finished only, spoilers!!!)

[FaTtY-mIc-FaTFaT]

so just finished it, and OMG IT IS MIND BLOWING!!!!!!

it was better then i expected and much more engaging. i cant believe what happens in the story. my finish time was like about 30hrs over the course of a week, yes i know what i said, a week. and i also went the good guy path and most of my crew lived

i was just wondering who else has finished, how much time, and the outcome of your main character and your crew.

ps: i cant wait for mass effect 3, i just cant, hope i can get that one ahead of time too XD

and one last thing, there was this message in the hints during the loading screen which i found kind of cool, not the exact words though

"export your save games to mass effect 3, to get blah blah blah"

not the exact words like i said, but it was still cool XD

I cant wait to get this game. My copy is in the coming in the mail, so right now Im re-playing the first one for like the 5th time.

 

[Zegz]

yeah i beat it too. loved it with a passion, just like i did the 1st one. i was gunna start a new game as well in the 1st one but for some reason im having graphics issues with ME1. dunno y. But whenever i fire a gun my whole screen flashes blue with the muzzle, its not supposed to do that. Also, lights have the protruding "light squares" that come out of them. Im also not sure y. All my graphics are set to max on me1 and me2 but for some reason im having issues with me1. Any one else have a similar problem?

 

[FaTtY-mIc-FaTFaT]

nope, mine works fine, but which ending did you get? your crew lived or die? XD

and i cant wait to see what happens when the reapers arrive XD

 

[Zegz]

my crew lived. its all about getting them all loyal then just picking the right people. they say the type of ppl they need to lead each situation, its up to u to figure out who best suits that role. And that ending scene of all the reapers coming was epic.

 

[FaTtY-mIc-FaTFaT]

you can get your entire crew killed, even shepard!!!

but what really got me the most, was that the collectors were the protheans, i kind of saw it coming, but still blows my mind lol.

 

[Zegz]

how can u get EVERYONE killed? I figured only the ppl that you pick for each scenario can get killed. I doubt Shepard can get killed, that would end the story right there lol. BTW my favorite ally is Legion. Hes just awesome. BTW that twist about the Geth was awesome.

 

[e MpTy]

I have a feeling there something more to do with Legion, he repaired it self with Shepard armor and when asked why "No data availability"

Call me crazy but I think "Legion" was a failed experiment by Cerberus.

 

[Ducttape]

Yes, how did Legion know Shepard's name when they first met? I don't buy that shared conscience answer Legion gave...

Ending was nice. I like the option to continue playing, wrap up quest and romances and stuff.

and that final scene - scary.

 

[Grimm911]

i saved after my crew got captured just in case a few of my team died, which ended up happening, i wanted to save all my crew and i didnt have time to finish some loyalty quests, so tali ended up getting headshotted, legion got taken away by a swarm (i think i cried a little) and jack just died for some stupid reason, but i hated jack so i didnt care.

Now im just going to reload my save and do all the loyalty quests so all my team can live, but the crew would die, which i dont really care, joker is the coolest character in the dam game and if he is alive im good with that.

 

[spidEY]

I finished the game yesterday and my whole crew survived the suicide mission, except for Jack. It's because I lost Jack's loyal status when she and Miranda got into a fight, I told Jack to back off.

 

[FaTtY-mIc-FaTFaT]

sigh, fine heres the proof, why would i lie about an ending? lol

god bless joker, or seth green, he always lives XD XD XD

o, and fun fact, for those of you who dont know, miranda is actually the voice of the spy in the NBC series Chuck. they made miranda look exactly like her too XD her name was Yvonne Strahovski if you want to look it up

didnt they also explain all that about legion? all geth are connected, he used shepards armor to repair because during the time shepard 'died', the good geth went looking for him and he was shot there. something like that.

 

[Zegz]

i dont understand how thats possible that he can die. I still dont believe it. How can there be a mass effect 3? If joker is the main character that would be dumb. They cant possibly write a mass effect 3 for a dead shepard ending AND an alive shepard ending. It just doesnt work. The only thing i can think of IF its possible that shepard can die in ME2 is that shepard isnt the main character in ME3 anyway. They might have a new character in store for us and shepard living or dieing didnt make a difference. Then again, that would piss alot of people off so im still not sure about this one.

 

[FaTtY-mIc-FaTFaT]

who cares, as long there is still a mass effect 3, XD

 

[Zegz]

who cares, as long there is still a mass effect 3, XD

alot of people lol. Thats half life 3 without Gordan Freeman. But i would like to see a video of shepard dying. Cause i dont believe it can be done lol. So if someone can find the gameplay video where shepard gets killed id love to see it.

there you go XD

 

[Zegz]

still makes no sense. There cant be a mass effect 3 with this type of ending. OR there will be shepard in mass effect 3 anyway and if you got this ending you just FAIL cause that means that you got everyone in your squad killed and your entire crew killed cause your an awful decision maker lol. But anyways, you have provided tons of proof but i still cant believe it lol. Clearly, you are right, and this is a possible solution, but i just cant fathom how its possible to have this ending AND a mass effect 3 thats not going to suck utterly.

It only effect people who choose to import their ME2 character/save into ME3...everyone else will abide by the parameters set forth by Bioware. I'm thinking that anyone who let Shepard die will either 1)Play as one of the character from ME1 who couldn't die in ME2 (like liara or Ashley) or maybe the surprise in ME3 is we'll play as the Illusive Man himself...or maybe Legion? I dunno, but Bioware has already said that Shepard can die in ME2 and it would effect your story in ME3 if you choose to import your character.

I got a little tip from a friend to "upgrade" my ship. I think you guys know what happens if you dont.

Lets keep in mind everyone though he died once before.
