  • More Suicide Mission tracks than you can count all rolled into one. These tracks are mostly in order as they occur in the game. Had to do a little remixing here and there. I will also upload this score in its basic parts with some additional notes on what may or may not be different from the OST tracks. Music tracks extracted from the game.
    Part 1: • Mass Effect 2: Suicide...
    Part 2: • Mass Effect 2: Suicide...
    Part 3: • Mass Effect 2: Suicide...
    Part 4: • Mass Effect 2: Suicide...
    Part 5: • Mass Effect 2: Suicide...
    Part 6: • Mass Effect 2: Suicide...
    Part 7: • Mass Effect 2: Suicide...

      Even knowing that the second squad leader takes a minor hit, I still get anxious thinking that they're going to die. I love this mission. It stresses me out in a good way.
      I've only completed it twice, but both times I've brought Tali and Thane with me to the final fight.

      I lost count how much I did this mission because its so epic but when I played last time (2 weeks ago) mine choises were familiar exept for hacking spec (Tali) and squads members (1st Jack and Thane, 2nd Grunt and Jacob and Final was Samara and Thane. I played on hardest so I had to make sure I will deal with barriers and armors. And Warp, Concussive Shot ,Warp Ammo and Fire Ammo was best for that combo)

      This game is a fucking masterpiece of video game storytelling. Getting you so invested in literally every single one of your squad and their stories and relationships with Shepard, even the 2 DLC members, the comradery that develops over the course of the entire game leading up to this, the amount of work you put into upgrading the Normandy mk.2 until it has got THE most advanced heavy guns, armor plating, and kinetic shielding in the entire Milky Way Galaxy, bringing your Shepard from the first game over to the second and so many of your choices having unexpected consequences, upgrading Shep to max levels, resolving the loose ends of Shepard's death and the deaths of the original Normandy crew by visiting the original ship's crashsite, meeting Liara and The Shadow Broker (especially important if you romanced her in the 1st game), meeting back up with Wrex too, and then it all finally comes to a head in a balls to the wall suicide mission where EVERYTHING you've done up to that point pays off one way or another, and all with an unbelievably epic score.
      This game's finale was an absolute once-in-a-lifetime event. Pure art.

    • @dildonius
      @dildonius 2 ปีที่แล้ว +34

      Even Shepard could die at the very very end if you REALLY fucked up. Successfully complete the final mission but Shepard and in fact your ENTIRE crew could all die at the end anyway and then the credits roll. That's how you get the player invested in the game and its story and make them feel like they ARE Shepard Commander.

      I’ve gotten the suicide down to a science sadly so I can make sure everyone lives *sigh* goodbye suicide mission tension… remember my first play through of it I was going in with like two squad members not loyal (thane I fucked up his loyalty mission and didn’t reset but oh well, and Jack because of the fight between her and Miranda and I wanted to romance her first) so hard to get everyone out alive but I did it! However that save never went to Mass effect 3 I deleted it and did a whole new better play through for Mass effect 3 with a tali romance.

      Josh Taylor It's Drew Karpyshyn's idea for the end of the trilogy, which he admits wasn't fully fleshed out, but only because it was ultimately canned (and he once said he wasn't too fond of it anyway).
      TL;DR - Using biotics is ending the universe, and reapers are trying to stop it somehow.
      -----------------
      So if I'm on the same wavelength as Karpyshyn was, it seems to have roots in the Haestrom loyalty mission in ME2, where the sun Dholen has gone unstable and is prematurely turning into a red giant.
      It would turn out that from the analysis that frequent use of Eezo to manipulate dark energy (the major factor in mass effect/ftl drives and biotic abilities) is having a drastic effect on the fabric of space-time.
      The Reapers, having spent eons of time witnessing this threatening to happen each time, are consistently wiping out organics to stop them from harnessing the powers of eezo and bringing about the end.
      On that note, an alternative idea Drew had was that the beginning of the Big Crunch was nearing, and the Reapers realised that they and all other AI lifeforms can't harness biotics (for unexplained reasons). So they're grooming civilisations, forcing them to evolve in the way they want, and wiping out the failures until the reach the race with the most stable and strong biotic ability, so they can somehow avert the Big Crunch. It just so happens that the Asari, while the most powerful biotics in this cycle, weren't good enough.

      @crisunjackalD 9 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      That it does - the skills you've had all your life are wrecking the universe. The good part is somehow, you have to pull it back together with other biotics in a sort of choir.

    @GhengisJohn 7 ปีที่แล้ว +42

    11:43-12:12 is my favorite part of that stretch of the mission. You've been preparing for this the whole time, you're making your push, the fighting is tough but it's turning your way, Garrus in Squad B is telling me they're fighting their way through. The music picks up and it feels like "Yes, we're doing this! We CAN do this." Great scoring. I really enjoyed Mass Effect 1 but Mass Effect two really had a lot going for it emotionally. It was the game in the series that really made me love this series and made this one of my favorite space operas. We will not speak of number 3 and the ways that it fumbled and broke our hearts.
    And even at the end of Mass Effect 2 as you see the Reapers coming towards the Galaxy, you're like "Here's Shepard, he's (or she's) done the impossible twice. We got one of the best damned crews in Sci-fi. With these guys around, it might just be alright."

    My favourite part - 11:42 - 12:10. I remember when that started the first time, as my specialist (Legion) was stuck in the vents and I had that countdown until he roasted in there. There were too many Collectors blocking my way, but I ignored all the cover tactics I'd learned throughout the game to this point and vaulted over my current cover and began aggressively advancing on the enemy.

    After beating the human reaper, the cutscene is so amazing. You first feel dread at the prospect of your dead squad mates but soon discover that they live. You then hear reassuring news from joker that the whole crew made it aboard the Normandy. Suddenly the ominous music kicks in as the seeker swarms move it. You and your companions start running as collectors start firing at you and explosions go off all around you. The triumphant score emerges as the harbinger delivers his salty monologue. The Normandy appears and as you and your party members run the gauntlet. They both make the leap and are safe as Joker lays down covering fire with pinpoint accuracy. It’s just you, Commander Shepard, hero of the citadel. You see your target. You run. Collectors at your back, an impossible jump in front of you. Nevertheless, you take the leap of faith, just catching the edge of the ship and holding on with all your might. Fear and panic begin to settle in but as your loyal friends pull you up, the dread recedes. Shepard tells Joker to get out of here just as the bomb goes off. You’re not out of the fire yet. Joker expertly guides the Normandy through a sea of debris, holding destroyed ships and the ghosts of dead crew. The bright flames of the explosion, close on your tail. The omega 4 relay just in sight as the wave of orange and red gets closer. You manage to reach the relay and shoot out of there before it is engulfed. You made it out. You survived a suicide mission. You always will. You are Commander Shepard.

    I maintain that soundtracks are only half as good when you don't understand the context behind them. A friend of mine had me listen to this before I played the game, and didn't think much of it. After playing through the suicide mission, being wrapped up in all the tension, I hear this music completely differently.

    When ever I think of Mass Effect This mission is what I think of It is sublime. The raise in tension, the concentration on saving your teammates of getting them out of the pipes, the shot that Garus took before the doors close to the very last scene where Miranda turns on the illusive man and you get out with or without all your team.
    This is one of the defining moments of the highest melding of music, art, acting and modeling of any game I have ever played.

    I remember, first time going through the suicide mission was absolutely epic, in no small part to this score. I mean everything about the mission was perfect. The sets were incredibly well done, it wasn't too easy, but it also wasn't impossible. You actually felt like you were bringing to bear the Galaxy's Greatest Badasses down on the Collectors. That sequence where you fight through the Collector Base opening pipes for your tech specialist to infiltrate the base was amazing. I can only hope that Mass Effect Andromeda has a level which captures the sheer badassry of the Suicide Mission.

    ME3 was pretty much epic up until that final mission. In fact some of the best ME trilogy moments happened in ME3 just before that mission. e.g. Mordin, Grunt, Legion and Thane's story arcs. The issue with the final mission is that very little of what you did prior to that mission in gathering an army to fight the reapers counted for shit. It would have been awesome if the battle played out differently depending on whether you had Krogan, Salarian's or both armies in the fight. etc.

That took a few re-dos, not to mention going to a save six missions earlier to avoid the Collector ship until I had completed all of the loyalty missions as you only get a few missions after the collectors before it FORCES the abduction sequence, and I couldn't just leave the crew of the Normandy 2 to be turned into goo.
