Yeah, this isn't exactly the first time poor ol' Gorvar got a minus one karma. I remedied the first moment with a one up, and it seems a fellow poster once again brought it down.
Looks like we're going to have to start compiling a suspect list.

Any ex-girlfriends on here, Gorvar? (Or ex-boyfriends, we don't want to be biased)

I was about to make a 'women should belong in the kitchen' joke, but that would piss him/her more off. Right...i'm going to call it.
It was General Yellow in the conservatory with a wrench!

Yeah, we have a good deal of women and feminists here, so I recommend steering clear of misogynist humor. That's probably what got you negative karma in the first place.

Dont worry, i wont go further into that. Hell my girlfriend is a feminist and i get my ass kicked constantly, so that should be fine karma wise. The universe that is, not the boards. Found a video here from machinema where the developpers of ME3 say playing ME1 and 2 aren't really needed to play ME3. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGsOPYi9Ozc(16:52) Sooooo.....yeh, aint that a kick in the teeth.

Maybe but... it's the first two games that managed to make me quit WoW for good and also the fact my Shepard can finally hook up with Garrus, was completely worth the effort imo.

Pay no attention to that. Those are the same developers who think the third and final act of a trilogy is a good jumping on point if they add in ten minutes of exposition of the previous storyline.
They just don't want to alienate any of the other shooter fans they want to attract that weren't suckered in by Mass Effect 2.

Yeah and using an 'interactive comic' as some sort of exposition for the first two...
You better off to play the first two games to fully experience it.

They did say the same thing of Dragon Age II, and I know folks who still dont fully udnerstand what Dragon Age is all about and who the Grey Wardens are.

Dragon Age 2 is more acceptable. It's just another story told in the same world, whereas the Mass Effect trilogy follows one protagonist and a handful of characters through three games

Still folks are wondering who the hell the Warden is. Aprantly he/she is a ultimate bad ass if they keep talking about him.

Well MY Warden was the ultimate badass! She died, though.
I seem to be in the minority on this one, but I'm glad Dragon Age 2 was a seperate story. I felt like the Warden's (or my Wardens' at least) story was done - s/he just about did everything. I was all set for a new character in a new country.
Just a damn shame it turned out to be Hawke and Kirkwall.

I would like DA2 as a sperate story if it weren't for the fact it happens during the events and after DA:O and have a stupid save import!
DA2 would be better off if it sets 100 years later imo.

I agree - maybe more like 30 years for my taste, and with fewer ties to Ferelden. If it were a hundred years it might not be the Dragon Age anymore - although that would be fine by me: why not call it 'something else-Age' instead of adding a 2? Besides, I'm sick of fighting dragons now. By the time we got to the one in the quarry I was like, 'Here we go again... the obligatory dragon fight. For the honour of the quarry or whatever, here we go...'
--
Also - man, my Warden was such a badass. City elf rogue, right? But she wore heavy armour and fought more than she used tricks. A dangerous common woman with an axe to grind, with long black hair and pale blue eyes -- the idea was that my Warden and Alistair were a mirror to Loghain and King Maric, respectively - even in terms of appearance, so that when Loghain duelled with the Warden it would be like two sides of the character fighting one another... and in the end she dies, of course, so that her friend Alistair can live.... because she's the good side of the coin in the end, and......... ahhh.
It was cool. xD
That's what I really miss in Mass Efect and DA:2 - the actual 'role playing'.

fair enough, but the ages can go a long way you know... probably by then the grey wardens get to ride dragons! A likely chance... but I can dream. --- Replaying ME2 again as a vangaurd. A few things I've picked up: 1. Garrus KO'd a lot more on my Vangaurd than my Adept. Maybe because he was trying to keep up with her but collapsed in exhaustion in the middle of the battleground... he's really unfit, he should spend time exercising and go out and have some fresh air, rather than calibrating all day. Speaking of that... 2. Harbinger is really pissed. When I mean pissed I mean like he's constantly screaming "STOP SHEPARD!" on the top of his lungs. Never had that on my adept. And I don't blame him, after I've been zipping around with my charge non-stop. Crossed eye reaper? We're not so doomed after all... 3. Playing a vangaurd class is like playing Aussie Rules with shotguns. Enough said.
