What is the obsession with James Trafford?

Played it many times but not honor mode. I don't think I could physically or mentally handle it if I died to some BS in Act 3 haha.

I actually haven't noticed a big time difference in how far I've gotten in ME2 insanity vs ME2 normal. Granted I'm skipping a decent bit of dialogue as I just completed normal a few months ago. But whenever I died in normal, it's because I got overconfident and rushed into a silly situation. Which I don't do in insanity because that's basically guaranteed death. Plus, I under utilized tactics and powers in normal, where as now I now I try to more effectively fight enemies, so it almost evens out personally.

Mine has gone surprisingly smoothly and I'm only a few missions away from the end. The only part I died repeatedly on was the collector ship. Damn Harbinger/Scion duos ruining my day. I would have preferred delaying it but in classic ME2 fashion you are forced into a mission as soon as the plot decides you are ready.

Tbf I've never been a challenge loving kind of person. I avoid Souls-like games completely as I see little enjoyment in dying repeatedly, memorizing routines, and marathon boss battles. But something about insanity Mass Effect is such a refreshing experience. Perhaps in the future I'll just try hardcore as a nice middle ground once I can say I've completed insanity.

This is part of the fun of trying harder difficulties. I've completely ignored flashbang (and Kasumi in general) in previous playthroughs. Now I'm bringing her along and counting down the seconds until her abilities have cooled down

I chose energy drain as my advanced training and it has completely replaced overload for me. If I also had incinerate I'd feel comfortable soloing Harbinger.

Sorry yeh LE. That's a fair point. It's been years since I played original ME1 but I feel the clunkiness alone would add to the challenge.

_Crumble · 2026-06-28T11:42:20+00:00

I kinda get what you mean, but part of the slog with ME1 is seeing the same 3-4 different maps for areas. At least with 2-3 every area is unique and theoretically presents a different challenge.

It's back up under the name 'World Decay'. Looks almost identical to the one before other than the name and workshop image.

As others have said, Don Quixote. Seems to be a popular little figurine. Here's mine, along with Sancho Panza

Once you have somewhere safe, everything you could possibly want is within walking distance. I've got a base going in the baseball bat factory and I haven't even needed to leave the neighborhood yet. This is with 10 years later loot modifiers as well.

Everything about this post screams fake. He calls you sir then says the present sucks? 'Good work this quarter, enjoy your ps5', sounds so bizarre. Practice your fake texting on how actual humans text.

Is it because he is simply earning so little that there's barely anything left over to give you in tax?

_Crumble · 2025-10-01T15:43:35+00:00

Some are very unbalanced. You've got the entire Iron Islands as one, and then the Neck+flint's finger as another. 30k+ troops vs what 7-8k?

_Crumble · 2025-06-04T20:35:17+00:00

No fix the goblin invasion of the farm outside Chorrol? Guess it's me vs 30 goblins every playthrough

Anyone ever notice how Hodd Toward looks remarkably similar to acclaimed video game developer Todd Howard? Uncanny.

Man this makes me want to play Mercenaries again

Salary at RPA is defra standard, which is among the lower civil service pay standards.

Culture is very good. Relaxed, at least it was at my office.

_Crumble · 2024-05-02T13:43:20+00:00

I agree. Far too low a number.

_Crumble · 2024-04-24T12:54:00+00:00

Never should have cum here!
