Most of what I liked was discarded in 2 in favor of a sorry Gears of Wars style gameplay mixed with Ocean's 11...but where in Ocean's 11, the team is formed in the first 1/3 of the movie (if that) it takes the entire game to do that here. Additionally the big and massive decision at the end of the first game seems to get brushed under the rug to maintain a status quo.
Also, the MAKO was awesome and fun as hell. Gave a sense of how big and awesome the universe can be. That is replaced by a terrible scanning game from orbit. I want to explore!
I actually preferred the Hammerhead vehicle from ME2.
As for decision are you talking about
(SPOILER) kaiden vs ashley?
Cause I feel there are bigger decisions in both 2 and 3.
Hammerhead? Must be some DLC thing. Never saw it in the game.
I am not talking about that at all. Though it would have been nice to actually carry over and evolve the character relationships from game to game. The decision I am talking about had to do with how you choose to end the game. Either way things are back to the status quo and you couldn't tell the difference with what you had decided. I felt it was a slap to the face. If my decision has no discernible effect, please don't give me the illusion of choice.
All of this talk makes me want to play KOTOR again.
