The first couple of scans didn’t bother me so much, but when I realised how much of the resources I’d need, and that I couldn’t pick up enough on missions, the scanning really started to get up my nose.

I can understand (though not approve) a developer putting something like that into a MMORPG in order to provide a timesink, but a single player RPG doesn’t need a timesink mechanism. There’s absolutely no reason, unless a developer thinks they don’t have enough content in their game and wants to hide the fact.

But that wasn’t the case with ME2, as you say it was an awesome experience no matter how long, and the scanning detracted from that.

After that I would just visit a planet to find any anomalies, and by that time I had pretty much upgraded everything I wanted to with resources to spare.

Personally I think ME2 is awesome, much better experience than the first one.
