True that. Throughout ME2, you collect people and resources for a suicidal mission. You can choose to embody your own moral self, the one you had in ME1, or become a Cerberus convert, achieving everything regardless of the cost. Paragon vs Renegade is all there is in ME2. The only time the synthetics vs organics theme comes up is during your journeys with Legion.
