Hm, yes, the final battle isn't that impressive. I didn't necessarily mind that, though... after all, the whole game is a bit intentionally atypical in some ways, what with Kreia telling you off and guilt-tripping you each time you fulfill a quest, for making people weaker by not letting them fight their own battles. After all that, it sort of made sense to me that the ending was also not the same kind of epic showdown as in the first game, but a more thoughtful affair. But I must say I played the two games quite close together and it does blur together a bit.

Heh, yes, that'll take you a good while.

Hehe, nice. I'd say DA2 is the best game so far in terms of squadmate interaction, what with sometimes visiting one character's home and finding another squadmate already there on a visit. But the MEs are definitely good too on that point. I do want to get the DLC with Javik also, in the end I might just cave and spend more on various DLCs than I did on ME3 to begin with... it'll still be better value for money than some other games I've bought over the years.
