would've made more sense to keep Ashley in the white and red as that's what we were familiar with as an audience
>>720564830most of mass effect 3's players never played mass effect priorgame was made to appeal to a broader audience
>>720564830Kaiden mogs all these bozos in both looks and combat and it's not even close. If Liara had something for shields and better weapons, maybe xhe'd be marginally competitive.
>>720564830It was done because blue is the Alliance's color. Besides, Ashley always dies in Virmire anyways.
>>720564830Why would you bother color-coding a pile of nuclear ash?
>>720564830She does look noticeably better in the Phoenix colors, agreed. I know Kaidan is mostly wearing the same armor as Shepard but it looks better on him for some reason
Mass Effect 3 is more fun than Mass Effect 3. Also Jack and Ashley are both hotter than they were in earlier games. I’m just gonna say it. ME2 doesn’t have the writing quality of 1 or the polished combat design of 3. It does nothing exceptionally well except throw a lot of hacking minigames at you I guess.
>>720566140>Ashley always dies in Virmire anywaysu gay?
>>720564830I've heard someone complain, maybe somewhat jokingly, that the white and pink looks too feminine and cute or something. I think the original armor was good because of the colors and the fact that it's an actual armor instead of a silly space stripper outfit.
>>720566728Nta, nor gay but Kaidan is cooler
>>720566625>Mass Effect 3 is more fun than Mass Effect 3.
>>720566774Ashley is cool because it's the last time a dev dared create a mildly racist character without it being a comically evil villain
>>720566728No, I just think with my brain over my cock. Kaidan is:>higher rank>part of the crew from the get go>better skillset>unique resource (human biotic)>a Sentinel, class that mixes biotic and *tech*>thus, roleplaying, makes more sense to keep with the bomb>Ashley's a pure Soldier>thus makes sense to send her in the front lines>plus it completes her character arc by having her fight side by side with aliens>once shit hits the fan, defending the bomb is the number one priority>Kaidan goes on to be a far better squadmate in ME3 with Reave>Ash dying restores her family's name
>>720567213The guy who voiced Kaidan voice Karth from KOTOR and I hated Karth so I hated Kaidan by proxy.>Tali best girl
>>720567213ur gae
>>720567213you're forgetting one thingKaidan is weaker than tali in terms of sheer health. He's always the first one down. Ashley meanwhile is the second/possibly third depending on player class tankiest character in the game. She's also high dps at the same time whereas Kaidan is a support character
>>720566625>Also Jack and Ashley are both hotter than they were in earlier gamesBut Jack only has a proper romance in ME2, that's good enough reason for it to exist
>>720567984Why would I want more even *more* tanky soldier-y characters when I have Shepard, James, Javik and Garrus
>>720564830It would've made sense to not make her look like she has taken the bog pill.
>>720566625This. I never understood why people like ME2 so much. This is why my list will always be: 1>3>2
>>720568379>Shepardsoldier's only fun in me1. I go vanguard, adept or sentinel in 2/3. >James, once you unlock Ashley you don' t need him anymore>Javikvanguard, not a tank >and Garrusdps, not a tankalso Mass Effect is easy enough you don't need to min/max a squad build at all, even on insanity. Just make sure you've got a guy with overload handy
>>720568519Why Grunt and fishguy so low?
>>720564830I wish I could kill them both in first game
>>720568519People like you should be allowed near good games like ME1-3
>>720568894based the list on a mix of their quality as characters/arc in conjunction with their utility as squadmates
>>720566625>Mass Effect 3 is more fun than Mass Effect 3
>>720564830you know what this semi feasible sci-fi franchise needs?anime characters
>>720571307No, we need space sluts with big tits in uniform.

>>720571307>semi feasible sci-fiStopped being a thing the second they *cured death* and resurrected Shepard two years post-being turned into mincemeat after crashing against a planet's surface after re-entry from space
>Bioware uses AI to make ME4>AI achieves sentience by watching us play>AI eventually enslaves and forces us to mate with council-appointed space gf in order to produce more food for future harvestsShepard warned us. Why didn't we listen?
>>720566625Yeah ME2 mostly sucks, pretty much all missions are “go here and shoot waves of the same enemies x10”. The selling point of that game are the squad mates but there are barely any interactions between any of them.
>>720568519I have no idea why Than is a fan favorite, he’s boring as fuck and his romance sucks because he’s alway whining about muh wife and son. Who gives a shit? Never take him on any mission either because he never has anything funny or interesting to say and has no standout abilities.
>>720577937He was used in promotional material and is on the cover so people think they are supposed to like him because they are retards.
>>720577937>go here and shoot waves of the same enemies x10That's literally all ME games are.
>>720579084the kill 5 waves of enemies in a square arena thing only shows up in ME2 recruitment and loyalty missionsin ME3 you have waves of enemies only in the sense that the game will hand you more enemies if you aren't moving through the areaIn ME1 its a set amount of enemies
>>720580705>in ME3 you have waves of enemies only in the sense that the game will hand you more enemies if you aren't moving through the areaBut that way you can't explore your surroundings, and kills half of the level design>>In ME1 its a set amount of enemiesYou just move through rooms and shoot the same five guys. ME2 at least made it more exciting.
>>720581268>You just move through rooms and shoot the same five guys. ME2 at least made it more exciting.I mean, if you're a goldfish.
>>720581356that argument makes zero sense.in ME1 you move the same 2-3 prefabs and fight the same 2-3 guys every timein ME2 every level is unique, the level design is unique, the encounter design is uniquethe only way to enjoy ME1 is if you are a goldfish and don't notice you did the exact same thing 150 times before, down to a T

>>720582230>Cherry pick mission, style of gameplay and difficultyI accept your concession
>>720582367>I accept your concessionyea that doesn't work the way you think it does
>>720566625I enjoyed the companion recruitment missions and loyalty missions, some of them are pure soul. And while doing them, It's nice to have the obligatory high stakes story missions in between. I also liked Liara's DLC. I also enjoyed autistically scanning every planet for hidden missions. ME1 is good storywise, but side content is garbage and gameplay is super outdated. ME3 is just linear shooter that discards some of the previous story decisions and I didn't like that. That's why I think ME2 is the best.

>>720583010>>720583995>the me2 nigger ruins yet another thread
Is the ME3 nigger ever going to not be butt blasted by the ME2 chads?
>>720566625>Mass Effect 3 is more fun than Mass Effect 3You people are truly the dumbest vermin.
Why the fuck would you bother arguing which game is best? I'm never going to not play all 3 back to back and have fun with each game
>>720587234>Kai Leng's potted plant
>>7205666252 and 3 both suck. 3 doesn't have good combat, that's literally just a fucking grasp at straws to pretend it does at least something well.
>>720584893Fuck off, I am not even arguing, I just replied to a post that said "me2 bad". Cunt.
>>720566625All three games are good and have their own strengths
>>720564830Ashley should have kept her ME1 look instead of looking like Michael Jackson.Then bring back the actual Michael Jackson instead of her not progressing as a Cerberus bitch, also have Jack rejoin too since she's literally with the Alliance now.
>>720591194Except ME3
>>720591194You must stop being a sensible human being. You must only say 1 good 2 bad 3 is a victim of fetal alcohol syndrome. Don't question it or spergs will shit up the thread
