Should I get Mass Effect 2 before 1?
(1/4) > >>
Sicarius:
I tried the ME 2 demo and I loved it, but I haven't played the first one. Would I be completely lost in the story if I don't play 1 first? Is there any differences between 1 and 2?
?:
Yes, yes.
Demian:
I'd say buy ME1 first. In my opinion you would be quite lost on the story if you haven't played the first game.
ShadowsfeaR:
Plus if you make the righ choices in ME1 you can have good outcomes in ME2.

No. 2 sets you out on a quest almost entirely unrelated to the first, with the only connection being that Shepard wants to kill the reapers. Yeah some references are made to the past game but it's never a situation where you needed to have played it.

1 was an RPG with shooter elements, 2 was a shooter with RPG elements.
Also 2 was stupid and it felt like it accomplished very little.
