    Most definitely.
    I do have to say that the way the Batarians are painting their ships according to Koobs made me chuckle, though.

    I just finished the Omega DLC. I couldn't shake the feeling that retaking Omega should have been included in the game at release, as well as the Leviathan.

    All in all, pretty underwhelming DLC IMO.

    I LOVED encountering the Mad Prophet again.

    You're so adorable, Legio.


    It would be cool if the Patriarch was in. He's the Patriarch. Aria's patriarch.

    Played through the new DLC and I like it, the mad prophet did make me laugh.

    I downloaded the Omega DLC last week but haven't had time to play it. Probably won't for ages anyway (Skyrim of course). Not too bothered about spoiling it for myself so;

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    Does the data you had the option to hand over to the dodgy Salarian in ME 2 come back to bite Aria in the arse on this DLC? I did it in the hopes of screwing over that smug cow in any future encounters. Ergo is this so in the new DLC?

    It appears to be completely seperate from the main game, as in your previous choices don't have any consequence.

    I hate it when forums display your location. Now I have to be original.

    lol, true.

    Mass Effect 3 is a fake-non-linear game. Its just a single corridor insert cut scene here game like everything else these days. At least BG2 which was fairly linear had areas to explore and some choices.

    You have to use Origin, which is EA's equivalent of Steam.

    Sorry, just had to fix that for you.

    Anyway, I played Omega a few weeks ago. Felt really short, but then again I played it near the end of my second run through with that character, so maybe I was a little too well equipped. Still, I expected a little more expansiveness for something that cost (I think) $5 more than Leviathan.

    Omega DLC sucked, dialogue with Aria seemed so forced and unrealistic, they talked about the assault like it was a picnic. Audio in general got worse with this game, so many conversions don't have any music playing in the background any more like it was back in the previous two games. I feel like that added so much to the immersion and "emotion" of a scene. Also, some of the scenes that are intended to be cinematic just fall flat and end up being completely awkward, one example is if Miranda and her sister get killed; Shepard's sorrow lasts like half a second. No emotions at all.

    Im always able to save both of them btw. But i get what you say, ME games are less and less RPGs but more and more third person linear action shooters. You cant even talk with your companions anymore like it used to, it was less on ME2 and nonexistent on ME3.
    What i feel is the last game is fast food in comparison to the other previous games.

    That's exactly why I just cba replaying ME3 or even bother playing any of the DLC's, even though I downloaded Leviathan. You don't have any control or freedom to make Shepard the character you want him to be. In ME1 and ME2, you choose virtually every line Shepard says. When you get to ME3, you know the game has failed when your Paragon Shepard starts racially abusing a Hanar and you can't do anything to stop it.

    Yeah, I saved them too, but I went to Youtube to see what happens if you don't. Very disappointed.

    I did notice Shepard starting to talk all of a sudden, and I'm like "who gave you permission to speak?".

    But on the companions problem, I don't feel like there's less dialogue with them. First of all, how much can you talk to Garrus about in the third game he appears? You already know his entire life, and even so, there's still enough dialogue given the circumstances. Plus, it's cool to see them talk to each other for a change, bumping into them on the ship.
    No.
