Is Mass Effect 2 Still Worth Playing In 2026?

from Does This Game Still Hold Up? Hosted by Heaps Good

Mass Effect 2 is widely considered one of the greatest sequels ever made, but does it still hold up in 2026? In this episode, Lennon and David continue their Mass Effect trilogy playthrough to find out if BioWare's magnum opus still delivers. They cover the story, the overhaul to combat and the Paragon and Renegade system, and why the loyalty missions carry more weight than the main story itself. We also get into every companion in the roster, the romance options, standout missions including the Derelict Collector Ship and the rogue VI quest, and why the suicide mission remains one of the greatest final missions in gaming.
