Mass Effect Trilogy

What don't you like about listing every individual copy of a gun or upgrade that you've collected?

 

Wow, thanks

 

Ah yes that stupid fake "moral" shit that forces you to play completely one way or another or be locked out of the benefits, therefore lacking any subtelty and role playing...

 

Just get ready for ME2 to crap all over the franchise. ME1 was by far the best one in the series if you are an RPG fan. ME2 is basically just a shooter with a thin RPG veneer (character stats are meaningless, item stats are meaningless, conversations are meaningless, etc.).

ME2 and Dragon Age 2 are why Bioware are a dead company to me now, when they used to be in my top 5 gaming companies. They basically went to crap once the founders - Ray Muzyka, Greg Zeschuk, and Augustine Yip left the company. They were the heart and soul of Bioware and their passion for tabletop RPGs is what drove the company. Without them, it's just an empty shell for EA to pander yet more shooters and crapping all over their previous RPG history.

Yes...I'm still bitter. ME1 and DA:O are still 2 of my all time favorite RPGs.

The sequels were great too, in many ways way better than the first with many interesting characters and missions and much improved gameplay mechanics. I envy Dsoup for being able to do a virgin run in Mass Effect... Be sure to import the saves when you start the sequels.

Well if you have karma already then you are in ME2 and missed your chance to get her killed in ME ;p

 

ME as a charm no other ME has, despite the Mako, combat system and inventory.

 

I dont think you can with steam because it will auto patch in the new ending

 

Its physic is just plain wrong ^^
The bouncing vehicle...

 

Do you have all the DLC ?
You get a much better vehicle in one of them, but I don't think you can use it in the main game though...

 

That's in the Overlord DLC in ME2 IIRC. More or less the hover version of the mako.

There are certain uncharted worlds where exploration can get rather... interesting in terms of climbing mountains. It's skippable, so it's not really all that bad unless you're a completionist (and you'd have to play the game twice to hit level 60 IIRC).

It's still better than a horse.

 

Yeah... quite important if you like Wrex. If you don't, then how about I say...

...Goodbye.

I hope Andromeda has many many one-liners.

I liked the pacing of the second game & the variety of side missions. The endgame was great. They went a little overboard on simplifying mechanics though. Oh well.

3rd game ended up being 99% likeable for me. They really should have stopped at that one moment at the very end

sitting down with Anderson

It's too bad the overarching story for the trilogy was rather chaotic, but the little details with characters were nicely done (if you could remember everything for every squad mate and then some).

 

Still a cluster fuck to get on PC I think. Silly bioware points. I played on 360, but overall I'd say the DLC was worth it if you enjoy absorbing story bits (sometimes a bit dumb, but... still gives you a sense of the universe they're making. I guess.). Just a shame EA didn't see fit to include all that in the trilogy release.

 

Maybe I need to start a run too on the PC. Played it on 360 before. I still have the ME2 PC-version in plastic. I'm sure I can unlock these in Origin.

 

But does it have Mako Armor DLC?
