Can I get a link to that?
I'm curious and frightened at the same time.
Just do a search for "hairless quarian mandibles". Curiosity kills they say, they forgot to mention it makes you insane.

Mechanics discussions are super boring, though. I don't know how people entertain themselves with them for so long.

Depends I guess. Some people like making deep, long threads about character arcs and motivation. Some people like maths. Some people like discussing the technology.
Are you claiming Scarab and Pancake are Ardat-Yakshi?
Can we please move on now?
Anybody want to talk about the ammo system change?
Yes, please - that just slowly makes red stuff come out of my nose instead of hemorrhaging my brain.

I hate neglecting the thread on it. Suffering from some burnout on that game though. ME2 I played through five times almost back-to-back (took a break to play Bioshock 2 and the multiplayer). This game just has magic replayability I cannot put my finger on.
Yeah, ME2 is just that game you can always replay - it helps that each class feels so different from one another.
And it's always fun in your 2nd or 3rd playthrough to play a completely different personality from yours.

I made this one build and squeezed out 5% more efficient damage. Shit was cash.

its true though
UNRELATED:
my brother never finished mass effect 1, so i told him to acquire a copy to finish, and then start mass effect 2
i dont know how he didnt know about the save game transfer before I told him
The weird thing is I felt that way when playing, but the ending of the game just ruined it for me. I've gone into detail before, but the choices at the end not exactly being what they seem and some characters speaking two different opinions simoultaneously really left a bad taste in my mouth after finishing.
I really do want to do another playthough where I romance Miranda and one where I'm the total Renegade asshole. I just don't have enough desire at the moment. That and all the other games demanding my attention.

I'm sort of with Dunxco, but I figure the replayability is that I keep feeling like I can go back through with slightly different decisions, like, "This time Shepard's adventure will be <adjective>." You really make 4 plot choices in Bioshock 2 (What to do with little sisters, what to do with the 3 big NPCs), in ME2, you just keep making choices. Choice city.
I'm currently playing through without using charm/intimidate, and it seems like I have to solve a lot more problems with the gun.
Yes. All of my playthroughs have only taken 25-26 hours. I wish BioWare would stop making such short games that are so light on content.

Wait, what?

Choice city, really? You make little decisions here & there, I'm sure, and some people like you, don't like you, some survive, and some die. All in all, if ME3 played it out like ME2 did with importing from ME1, it'll be slightly cosmetic changes. Since you can potentially 'kill' all the characters from your current game, I doubt any will actually come back to the 2nd one, other than replaceable cameos like Wrex.
So although you are given many choices, they all end in the same result--the ending of the game is still the same ending of the game.
I'd like to play through a 2nd time, but other than being a dick to where I was a nice guy before, none of the options really seem to 'pop' to me.
Could the elevators really have added that much time?
link dude.
Does that only work with Dominate?
I want more ME2, but I just don't have it in me to go through again just yet without a significant change like new DLC.
How is it that the one time I'm away from the thread this is what happens? I can't leave you people alone for a second.
Well your choices aren't like "Choose your own Adventure" books, which are short and head in wildly variant directions, but Shepard is the hero you choose. You get to decide how the hero acts and reacts to most everything in the game.
That is very fucking cool, in my book.
According to this thread, yes.
Not really. Especially compared to the parts of ME 1 that were actually fun.
Yes Jacob, it's a fantastic idea for you to run off into the sunset and fight half a dozen blue suns including two heavies on your own. No, I'm sure it won't matter that they all have shields and you have no means of dealing with shields. Don't mind me, I'm just regenerating my health, no need to wait. I'm sure your suicide run will work, element of surprise and all that.
Oh dear.
Fixed.
