Mass Effect 2 2010

Is it still worth playing?

BioWare's 2010 action role playing game with third person shooter elements, for Windows and the Xbox 360, the second Mass Effect. Commander Shepard recruits a team for a suicide mission against the Collectors, an insectoid race threatening humanity, in the 22nd century Milky Way. There are six classes, at most two AI controlled squad mates fight beside you, and each power has four ranks. Weapons use finite clips instead of overheating, experience comes after missions and not from kills, and side missions are played on foot. Combat is cover based. Importing a save from the first game changes the story and gives starting bonuses. Your squad keeps it worth playing today: you spend time on your ship, the Normandy, learning their pasts and doing their optional missions, and those choices carry through to the end.
