Finally, A Mass Effect Character I Can Appreciate
I always did like a chick who might kill you in your sleep. I hope that's a plot twist in the new Mass Effect. I mean, sure this presentation is pretty hokey, but I can't wait to see how she reacts to my "nuke the entire planet twice" dialogue choices.
Comments
The Carth clone and the other Soldier class chick were dull as drywall. I kind of liked the girl, simply because she seemed believable to me, but compared to the aliens, most of the people were fairly boring.
Actually, I think the franchise in general could use some personality. I've become more and more a fan of environmental immersion and creativity, and almost ALL aspects of Mass Affect are sterile and uniform.
I mean, things don't have to be midgets in cantina's like Starwars (or goofball droids), but there's not a lot of grit or lively hood or culture anywhere. It's like a humorless, overly serious nerds dream- which would explain how hard our new female character is "breaking the mold" here.
I've been playing KOTOR 2 again and despite the poor graphics I still feel like I am where I'm supposed to be. Real, lived-in places (in most cases).
