[QUOTE="SolitonMan, post: 5823120, member: 22433"] Fair enough - but don't you think, in as much as possible, all elements of a game should provide a pleasurable experience, instead of an onerous one? I don't think it's a good sign when the best that can be said of a feature is that it sucks but you only have to do it a little. ;) I'm probably one of the few who didn't mind it at all. Sure, I occasionally got stuck by trying to drive up an inaccessible mountainside, but what really got me to enjoy it was the first time I encountered a thresher maw. I'm driving along, homing in on a signal, and all of a sudden this monstrous beast erupts from the ground! I was like, "AAAaahhhhh!" and scrambling to get away from it. :) From that point on, every time I drove across a wide open space in the Mako I was extremely nervous. (It wasn't until later that I learned thresher maws are punks best fought by running around 'em in a circle on foot). Nothing in ME2 even came close to providing that level of tension for me. Love the hickey comment, BTW. :) Wasn't his mission tracking down some guy who betrayed him? Maybe they gave new armor as an option in a patch I didn't get, because I didn't see any options to do anything with Garrus' armor at any point. But I appreciate your points. ME2 just wasn't my cup of tea. Maybe in a few months I'll check out ME3. It's not like I don't have enough to keep me busy until then! (I'm looking at YOU, Skyrim mods!!). [/QUOTE]
