I’ll agree that he was too damn easy. The only thing that actually got me into trouble was forgetting to pay attention to one of those matriarch thingies walking around, whitch was suddenly standing right behind me. But that thing itself barely touched me. He maybe hit me once, but it only knocked out like what, half my shields? A bit miserable for such a big ass thing.
I think it was kinda needed for this game to have a melodramatic ending though. I did find it nicely designed, though the designs for it in my artbook look so much cooler. Much more omnious. I kinda liked the idea of it being a ‘human’ even though I don’t know the reason behind it. It was extremely weak though. The whole game was very easy anyway. Especially as soon as I got that big update on the collector ship, that new assault rifle. And if you then just take the suited ammo and get a bit up close that thing blasts through everything. In fact I think it did about twice as much damage as my heavy weapon.
I do still think that it was a better final battle than in ME 1. It was just lame. Anticlimatic. It was nothing with sovereign, that were just the cutscenes. That’s not the actual final battle. That was just Saren jumping around like he belonged in a mental house. I beat him with ease even though I had that bug where my weapons wouldn’t cool down so I had to do the entire battle with a weapon I didn’t like. And after that I was like; “That’s all?”
Atleast something as big as in the final battle of Mass Effect 2 gives you some feeling of accomplishement. He was probably even easier than Saren, but atleast you feel like you actually beat something that posed something of a threat. Saren was just…well, like facing any other Turian. It just didn’t feel significant enough to me.
When he got possesed by sovereign, he should’ve been a good RPG boss and transformed into some bigass motherfucker. They always mutate.
I do think both games are fucking awesome though.
