Mass Effect - Orion - 04-12-2008
Just bought this. Starting off as Sentinel. =D

Mass Effect before you put Explosive Rounds in a shotgun: A decent, if somewhat easy, shooter.
Mass effect after you put Explosive Rounds in a shotgun: Holy fucking shit this is awesome.
Mass Effect - Kaden - 04-12-2008
I did that for a bit. But it's damn hard to argue with a Spectre assault rifle that doesn't generate any heat.
Mass Effect - Orion - 04-12-2008
Sentinels can only use pistols. =(
I was kinda disappointed in the Sentinel. I thought they'd be more like a Jedi Master from KoToR, but their mass effect powers aren't in the same league. Makes some fights pretty difficult.
Shit, I've been playing 8 hours straight. Damn addictive. @_@
Mass Effect - Aero - 04-12-2008
I found Mass Effect, at first, boring. However, once I got pwn'd by Matriarch Benezia (pt.2) like 12 times, I got interested. Then after I beat her, I found the game addictive.
Mass Effect - Saz - 04-12-2008
I enjoyed Mass Effect on my first playthrough, but I tried playing again maybe 2 or 3 months ago, and just haven't been able to force myself to play it consistantly. I think in those months I've played about 10 hours, if that. I only started the second playthrough to get some extra gamerpoints out of the game, but I really can't be bothered it's just too tedious.
Has anyone downloaded the extra game content?
Mass Effect - Super Buu - 04-14-2008
I was actually hoping there would be downloadable 'patches' rather than content. I like the current content, but seriously, fix the equipment page and make it not horrible.

You mean... like this?

I don't see what everyone's problem is with the menu. I had absolutely no problems with it. Eh, maybe I'm just weird.

The menu isn't so broken that it's unusable, but it really increases the amount of time you have to spend in it, organising things. My main beef is that most parts of the game are so polished, it would have taken a fraction of that polish to make it so that multiple weapons of the same type are stacked on the menu, with a little number next to them. Just little things like that.

Yeah, I'm fine with it too. *shrug*
Scrapped my Sentinel and created a Vanguard. Much, much better. Being able to equip medium armour plus shotguns makes a big difference. Plus I still have mass effect powers.
Just beaten Feros. That vision when Shephard gets the Cipher looks so awesome.
Mass Effect - Kaden - 04-19-2008
I didn't really dig the Vanguard as much as I thought I would. I just don't really like the biotics. The the exception of "Throw" they're all either worthless, or overpowered to the point of making fights not fun.
The tech skills... now those are awesome.
And I don't care about weapons. I have the achievement for assault rifles, so that's what my characters will be using. AR > other guns.

Nah.
I didn't think the menu was awful, but it was always kind of hard to tell wtf I had and what I could get rid of.

I still don't find it easy, but with better armour and a more powerful short range weapon, it makes it more fun.
I quite like Throw and Lift, plus Barrier's saved my arse more than once. Liara's Singularity isn't too bad either, I wish I could learn it. =(
