But it was literally impossible for damage to be done to my Shepard at a faster rate than he could regenerate it

Perhaps he has just joined Philanthropy?

You're just a bean counter, Jeong. I'm a Spectre. Tell me, how good are those odds?

I don't care what the trailer says or what the game's main objective is - so long as they keep on doing what they did last time, I know the game will be good.

So in ME2, you'll play four different characters: a teenage Shepard, a black Shepard, an alien Shepard, and an evil cyborg Shepard.

What was so great about Shepard anyway? The guy had zero personality. He was a literal everyman.

The lack of emotion in that game always bothered me.

It might as well have been a Speak-and-Spell reading all of Shepard's lines.

that's what you get for playing the character voiced by a nobody vs Jennifer Hale

Once again you are completely wrong Kegwen. The lines delivered by the male Shepard were completely hilarious and hyperbolic (as they should be) while the female Shepard sounded like she hated to be alive. Just listen to the part where they're overlooking the ward ("Big place!") for evidence of this. Mark Meer takes the completely shit writing and makes it into a funny joke, something that Jennifer Hale fails to do. Just think about it.

"I CAN BLUDGEON PRETTY HAAAARD"
"Is he a zombie or something?"

It was the closest thing to comedy that Bioware has ever approached (including Minsc and Boo which are annoying, not funny)

Well I'm glad they pulled out all the stops on this teaser. Seriously, why release anything?

Because besides this small caveat, the game will probably be 100% identical so there's no need to show anything

I couldn't get off of Eden Prime as male Shepherd because the voice acting was too fucking terrible.

I think I spent 3 continuous hours dancing in the club on the citadel.

I had things to do, so I left Shepard to boogie.

As long as they drastically improve or remove the driving parts it should be acceptable.

I found many of male Shepard's lines hilarious and well-delivered.

I think being able to aquire upgrades (armor, weapons, jumpjets, etc.) or gain experience for the MACO would be a great idea.

Also it would be nice if the exploration areas weren't just Motocross Madness maps.
