    игра берет свое не геймплеем и графоном(который вполне неплох для 2010),а ОЧЕНЬ проработанным сюжетом и персонажами.Каждый перс лично у меня чем то запоминался(я бы сказал что большинство стали как родные,а некоторые просто интересными)игра берет свое не геймплеем и графоном(который вполне неплох для 2010),а ОЧЕНЬ проработанным сюжетом и персонажами.Каждый перс лично у меня чем то запоминался(я бы сказал что большинство стали как родные,а некоторые просто интересными)

    Пожалуй одна из лучших игр, в которые я когда-либо играл. Не оценил только систему прокачки персонажа и экипировки. 9 из 10

    The best of all Mass Effect games! Solid from beginning to end with a story that keeps you wanting to play more!

The plot is intriguing from the first minutes of the game. Many new charismatic characters and interesting missions appeared. The main story is full of mystery, drama, suspense, and epic. Graphically, the game has received noticeable improvements. Music accompaniment is one of the best in the history of games. The gameplay has become even more diverse and dynamic than in the previous part. The number of weapons and abilities has increased significantly. Some of them are so powerful that they'll make you complete the final game in a few seconds. Literally! Resources grind missions now without landing on the planets themselves. However, endless baggage was removed.
    This is another great game of a great trilogy!

    Тех , кому понравился первый Mass Effect, второй порадует еще больше.
    Графика стала лучше! Напарники получили индивидуальные квесты. Дополнительных квестов стало больше. Какому-то понравится, кому-то нет, но исчезли исследования скучных одинаковых планет и поездки на Мако. Сюжет остался закрученным и интригующим. Боевая составляющая стала намного лучше, удобнее и красочнее. В итоге, игра

    This is a very good game, but it's definitely not the "perfect sequel". Compared to ME1 many things were completely cut or dumbed down. In fact, i would say this is the weakest game in Shepherd trilogy. This game basically don't have any story. This is just one big filler which is completely irrelevant to the main plot.

    GOAT game for me. Best one of the series. You must play with all ME series for better expirience, but even without them is great game in every aspect.

    Advantages: + Very good storytelling + Every character is amazing, each of them has its own unique quest + Well-developed locations + Incredible music + Final mission is best mission of all gaming history for me Disadvantages:

    This part was excellent for me. New gameplay is perfect (compare with ME1). Epic, pathos, universe. It was the best of trilogy.

    Я командор Отзыва и это моя любимая часть серии Mass Effect!
    Лучшая работа над ошибками в истории игровой индустрии! Вырезали все то что не понравилось в первой части, и улучшили все то что понравилось! Игра расширяет и без того огромный лор вселенной. Все то о чем мы читали в "Кодексе" прошлой части, теперь мы видим своими глазами.
    Что вообще можно сказать об одной из лучших игр

Очень Большое Зло, Геральт, это такое, которого ты и представить себе не можешь, даже если думаешь, будто уже ничто не в состоянии тебя удивить.

    While ME2 doesn't hold up to it's predecessors RPG chops, what it provides is one of the most fun and responsive third person shooters ever. That applies both to its combat mechanics and to its many hours of conversations. There are so many excellent characters that it is a joy to get to know them, to watch how they respond to you, each other, and the richly realized galaxy.

    1편에서 이어지는 내 선택의 결과물들.
    흥미로운 전투와 다양한 적들
    메인 스토리와 서브 퀘스트들을 깨며 쉴틈없이 재미를 느낄 수 있었음

    Basically the perfect RPG, and luckily more shooter as far as combat goes so you don't have to worry about hit chance and what not. Also the game became "do side missions just to unlock more Thane dialogue" real quick.

    I little behind Mass Effect 1 in the history, with a little forced start for the character, but with improved mechanics, the same level for characters and with an huge improve in the scenarios. Better game overall.

    + Good shooting part
    + Nice main story
    + Awesome companion stories
    + A couple of story twists are quite good
    + Good repeatability (It was fun to play different classes)
    + Tali is always in my heart

    - The RPG system looks simplified even in comparison to the 1st part
    - A sense of the scale of events taking place is a bit lower than in 1st and 3rd
    - Pointless resource grind

    Mass Effect 2 resumes with pride the path opened by the first game. This sequel is a lesson of how things should be made.
  2. Mass Effect 2 delivers a story that's deeper than what many novelists are capable of, and its action is better than what most Hollywood directors are creating nowadays. It's an addictive, engrossing experience that many gamers will replay over and over while they hold their breath waiting for the third game.
  3. A brilliant mix of shooter and role-playing, filled with great characters, excellent design, lots of action and clever dialogue. It's a shame though that Bioware did not improve the inventory and skill system of the first game, but actually reduced it even more. I really wished there were more customization options, more ways to develop and gear up my characters. But all these are merely small points of criticism, since there is so much to feel and experience in this game. Mass Effect 2 is a thrilling, emotional ride and ultimately every bit as good as its predecessor.
