More like chess eh? Considering I've never played chess, I suppose for someone like me it'd be extremely difficult eh? See if developers made it to where enemies were more challenging than doing something along the lines of giving the enemy more health and more damage and keeping the player the same to simulate a harder difficulty, I'd be fine with it. We shall see how this pans out. I already pre-ordered and paid off ME3 so I know I'm getting it first night.

Never played chess? I don't really understand the sarcasm...
What does that even mean anyway?

Side-note: Here's to hoping there's a cyborg companion named Bishop!

Um, hey, platinumrug, have you ever seen Aliens?

@JonahStein I think it means he's never played Chess their's probably nothing to it besides that simple fact. I mean I never played Chess to truly understand how the game plays. Always wanted to but I guess comparing it to checkers is my downfall of grasping the move sets and such. Lol. But all in all, I know the general idea of Chess is that it's based on strategy and comprehension of the environment and adding that to Mass Effect 3 will only make it that much sweeter!

This game will be as similar to playing chess as surfing is to eating cold pizza.

I mean, I get the chess comparison with games like final fantasy tactics and disgaea, but ME? Not so much

I hope this means an end to the 'all enemies have a billion layers of armour on higher difficulties that makes Half the character classes useless" bullshit from 2.

You say that like it was any different from, "every enemy has Immunity and uses it again within 3 seconds after it wears off," bullshit from ME1.

i dunno, i just don't remember it being as bad in ME1. not to mention they would have to activate it, so you could catch them with a throw or lift or something before they could use it, whereas in 2, they're immediately immune.

The combat is of a very decent quality in ME2, you shouldn't let that hold you back from play it.

i liked it more in ME1. having the use of one power cause a cooldown for ALL your powers was really annoying in ME2.

I wonder if this will be noticeable on normal difficulty.

I can comfortably guarantee that I'll never be playing the game on Insanity.

I don't so much pick my squad by how their powers are appropriate for the mission as much as how funny or likeable they are.

I DON'T CARE HOW MANY POWERS YOU HAVE MIRANDA, YOU LACK THE POWER OF NOT BEING A BITCH.

Mass Effect 1 was all about positioning in battles too. You'd position yourself so the AI would get stuck on the corner of level geometry and pathfinding broke.

Insanity was much easier in ME1 than it was in ME2. Still haven't beaten ME2 in insanity. Beat ME1 three times on insanity.
