Well, this is funny, because I believe ME2 was the worst game of the series. Because in fact, the missions are repetitive, the characters for the most part are as bland as their loyalty missions are, and overall this doesn't follow the series at all in terms of theme. First off, you do relatively nothing the entire game, you only really accomplish something worthwhile twice(Horizon and the Collector Base) not counting DLC, in which case it's four. As for the theme, Bioware has said through their games that it's synthetics vs organics, which ME2 does not follow. Now, I will admit, gameplay-wise, the game was fine. The inventory system and weapons were good as well. I just tend to look at things from a story perspective, but that's just the writer in me. Now, I know that some people find the characters in this game riveting, but I do not. I could explain how they could have made the characters better, but that might take too much space. Pretty much, Mordin, Legion, Tali, and Garrus are the only redeemable characters. I'm sorry if I seem all over the place, I'm just trying to get in as much as possible without writing a sub-blog.
