>just finished mass effect trilogy again
>got that classic mixture of despair, anger, apathy and desire for more again

What did you think of the Overlord DLC?
DAT ASHLEY.
That said, All we have to do is wait a year until Dragon Age 4 and then it's just a countdown to ME5 trailers.
The Hammerhead is shit but everything around that was alright to good.
Overall ok
also all the autistic screeching hurts my ears
Can we finally agree that Mass Effect 3 was a good game?
Not OP, but I still haven't played that DLC.
It was never a bad game, just a really disappointing game, but that should have been expected due to the fact that so many branching choices would eventually have to converge at the finale.
I think Bioware got themselves backed into a corner with how drastic the game could change for different characters.
You need to. It’s genuinely good.
So user give us the greentext of what happened in your playthrough.
My DLC Tier-List (no small DLCs, price doesnt matter because I ain't buying EA)
Lair of the Shadow Broker
Overlord
Leviathan
Bring Down The Sky
Kasumi - Stolen Memory
Zaeed - The Price of Revenge
From The Ashes
Citadel
Arrival
Omega
Pinnacle Station
>citadel
>not first
pleb
This looks about right.
I was so disappointed with Omega.
It was literally the first time the series had a turain female. They hyped her up before the dlc launched. And then she's only with you in the game for like 30 minutes in a 2 hour dlc. I'm still pissed about how they handled that shit!
>buy dlc for turian waifu
>she's hardly in it
>they made her a lesbian
>you can't even save her at the end of the dlc
Still mad!
Lair of the Shadow Borker is by far the best dlc of the series.

it's okay, what's the problem? both BroShep and FemShep is good, there's no difference

what's it about? i never picked him in my crew
and Kasumi DLC is kino
>what's it about? i never picked him in my crew
Why. Why would you do that. He is one of the best crew members.
I really like Wrex and Mordin. They're great characters and friends to Shepard, I think.
BUT Krogans without Genophage is fucking stupid. The birthrate of a genophaged Krogan is that of a human. Genophage has nothing to do with the problems the Krogans have.
.....Still always heal it though, because I can't get myself to betray Mordin and Wrex.
R.I.P. his VA
>You will never ever be loved by Tali
Twice I have managed to fuck up a relation with a Tali-like girl
It's great fun betraying them
They are all praising you and saying you are a hero after you shot Mordin in the back and fucked up the genophage.
And of course Wrex takes it very well
>download some repack of ME2 because it's easier than unlocking each individual DLC
>find out there's a motion comic summarizing ME1

>nice ass
I keep fantasizing about creating a gigantic mass effect game with the original plot.
Maybe one day I'll make it.
Not like I could share the progress without being DMCA'd.
I can't. I really liked ME2 but I was well aware of its glaring flaws
Getting into ME3 I felt like ME2 didn't matter at all, most of your team has fucked off to different areas, all the bonding and relationship building means fuckall and the suicide mission was a sidequest
Then Im getting characters like Beef McLargeHuge shoved in my face and terrible graphics and on rails tutorials, and the writing was actually so cringey I turned the game off after being 3 hours in and never looked back.
This is from someone that cleared ME2 on insanity multiple times
Probably more to with having like 10 kids at once and having to watch 9 of them be still births, politics aside that shits fucked up.
>I keep fantasizing about creating a gigantic mass effect game with the original plot
I mostly fantasize about seeing a more competent studio buy the rights to the franchise from Bioware and do something great with it.
Short but pretty nice.
Fuck Hammerheads though
honestly i wish every EA ip was bought by talented/passionate people
Indeed
I'll have to go with Big McStrongPecs over gay pilot, the Mako is best, Hammerhead is made of paper towels and sucks penis just like steve
This. What is normal for a human is abhorrent for a Krogan; they're different species with different outlooks. If the Genophage had simply caused 90% of Krogan women to become sterile, it might not have been so bad; but seeing so many of your potential children being born dead is a terribly harrowing thing, especially for a militant culture which expects to lose a significant portion of its people to conflict. I can't blame the Krogan for slipping into a nihilistic mindset as a result.
It's always worth remembering that the Krogan were forcibly uplifted before they were ready. The Salarians gave nuclear weapons to cavemen, then everyone acted surprised when the cavemen started doing caveman things.
Am I misremembering things or did the Hammerhead also not make it to Andromeda?
I think you right
Outlasted by the thing it was meant to replace
ouch
Either way, Shepherd is the worst pilot in the galaxy.
Well, I've always thought of him as "another useless merc". He's voice actor is really good tho, rip. I mean, everyone in a crew have some relationships with Shepard, and most of them are important for the story. But what's about Zaeed? How he's involved into "saving the day"?
>doesnt remember flying the skycar in LotSB
Shepard is good, Swole BeefMuscle crashes the only thing he ever flies
>think character will be shit because is introduced in the third game and forced upon you
>ends up being a bro and one of the best characters overall
How did they do it
*does 200 pull-ups*
His anime was kino
Its better than ME2.
That was insane
They gave nukes to the Cavemen who already had nukes and nuked themselves as well.
They knew what would happen they just didn't care because there lifespans like what? 30 years? It wasn't their problem it was their kids.
their lifespan is like 200 years
life expectancy on the other hand...
Play Andromeda.
It's not a great game, but it will scratch the itch for more mass effect.
And since it isn't that great, it wont leave you wanting more afterwards. Seriously, do it.
What the FUCK were they thinking?
They could have made a whole another cash cow trilogy. The world was their oyster. How did they fuck up so bad?
Nah the salarians man, Krogans are 1000 years even though its retarded for a species to have like 50 kids AND last 1000 years.
Andromeda failed because of no good turian sex scenes. Thats the real reason
I still hate the ending and how they didnt handle the player story decisions from the first two games well.
I'm still mad
I will always be mad.
On my death bed I will be mad.
When the seas heat up and the world falls into global catastrophe I will still be f***ing mad.
In the afterlife, when I get to the gates of Heaven, St. Peter and his angels will ask me "Are you still mad about ME3?" My answer will be yes.
When the race of man is no more and the ruins of man's cities have crumbled into dust, I will still be mad.
Ancient alien civilizations will find the smoldering, volcanic corpse of planet Earth and decode the secrets of the ancient "internet" and they will find this post and so my eternal anger will be brought forth into the far-flung reaches of outer space.
When the last tiny flash of heat in the universe dies and all descends into entropy, my hatred will remain.
They wanted more cash out of it shortterm instead of thinking longterm. Just didn't give a shit because enough people will buy it anyway this time.
This never gets old.
The Krogan built there own nukes, their nuclear winter was self imposed before the Salarians even arrived.
It sucks because Bioware is the only studio that makes games with that same feeling.
>They wanted more cash out of it shortterm instead of thinking longterm.
You say that... But from what little information and budget information released it seems as if Andromeda had a budget twice that of Mass Effect 3
No, because that's a reddit-tier opinion. There is so much wrong with 3.
Mass Effect 3 IS a good game because Good. You opened this message. This isn't actually asari military command. They're busy tending to what's left of their planet.
So you survived our fight on Thessia. You're not as weak as I thought. But never forget that your best wasn't good enough to stop me. Now an entire planet is dying because you lacked the strength to win. The legend of Shepard needs to be re-written. I hope I'm there for the last chapter. It ends with your death.
-KL
I think that nonsense was about the point where i couldnt even give a shit about the story anymore and just stopped playing.
3.6 user, not great not terrible.
Not him, but that was a cool DLC. Hammerhead was kinda clunky and it was missing teammate interactions, but other than that it was a cool sidestory, and seeing the kid again in 3 is probably one of the most emotive moments in the whole saga.
You biggots hate it but I don't see you making great games like ME3 yourself
I still can't believe I went through with all of them.
And all I got was a shitty "You still got it".
KAAAAAI LEEEEEENG
how in the fuck can you have desire for more? after the clusterfuck that was 3, it's better for the franchise to stay dead
i love me3 but "make it yourself and then discuss" argument is shit
My man
I counter your great game statement with terrible lazy recolored fact.
youtube.com
Just re watching this reminded me of how truly terrible this was. How did it ever get to this point in Bioware without someone saying maybe this sucks i will never know.
It's absolutely valid, making games is blood and sweat in the pool of poor management where you're task with stuff you sometimes have no idea what you're even doing about and the deadline was yesterday and you're 3 hours into overworking already
They fired everyone good and the shitters left formed a "yes man" clique and nobody questioned each other's shitty output
The way they acted on the forums should have been clue enough considering they sounded the alarms at the first sign of negative feedback
well at least the music is good
There is literally no creative process on earth that isn't like this
Nobody is exempt from criticism
You don't have to be a chef to know food tastes like shit, you don't need to be a professional football player to know a kid in crutches aint gonna make it to the big leagues etc.
No. It had some good things, but it's a genuinely shitty way to wrap up the trilogy.
I will give you that one i did enjoy the background music for the series. Still doesnt give the series a pass though for everything else wrong.
Bioware is very likely to not survive till they can push out DA4.
Never looked into Pinnacle Station, was it just arena fighting or something?
Also, while I did like the story aspect of Arrival it completely broke the game for me.
>fighting is based on companions
>herp let's remove all companions derp
Fugg?
Not saying it was impossible, just dumb.
That line tho
>You gonna try to kill me like Ashley tried to back on Virmire? Oh wait you killed her too.
It's the latest meme that you're a homo or a closeted tranny if you play as a woman in a game.
They're either trolling you, and/or they're just regularly retarded and don't understand what roleplaying means.
I've played complete playthroughs like 8 times, and I have 3 femsheps.
Mass Effect Andromeda
>I just want more Mass Effect that isn't shit
I've wanted this ever since the first game came out
then EA bought Bioware and ruined the franchise immediately
>always heal it though
Some of 3's best scenes only happen if you betray Wrex and Mordin. You're missing out, user.
you seriously, truly have to have shit taste to feel this way about this mass effect series. my condolences
>tfw no turian bf
I hope Bioware dies soon and the IP goes to someone competent.
play the OT
>romance Ash in 1 (duh)
>she's a bitch in 2, and I have noticed that Tali does have nice hips
>this scene comes along in 3 and it feels fucking awful to tell Ash that you're picking xeno-exercise-in-futility over her, especially when she's just laying there all fucked up
Sorry Ash.
>herp let's remove all companions derp
I really liked the solo missions, especially when I played as an Infiltrator.
It's been a long time since I played now, and I know I've done it with infiltrator as well, just can't remember.
But I do remember my first time as a Soldier and how I basically had no ammo and got reggt by biotics a lot.
im 100% sure i would have dumped me3 in the first 2 days if it wasnt for the mp.
Leave it be, user. You just know that Bioware is at the edge of joining Westwood. ME3, despite his ending, was the probably the last big Space Opera game. The hopes only lie in Star Citizens SP mode and it's questionable if it ever gets released.
Ashley was a mega-tard anyway. She was the definition of an unreasonable woman
I can only hope Bioware joins Westwood before we get the Mass Effect cell phone game. Command and Conquer didnt deserve what happened to it.
Unreasonable? You were working for the terrorists and you can't even justify it properly to her.
>ash
>then pick tali
things always can go worse, and this is a proof
>mfw doing the first part of the Citadel DLC before getting to the car dealership as an Infiltrator
Damn. ME3 does it really good let you feel like a horrible piece of shit if playing renegade. I tried it but started a new playthrough as paragon halfway through. I always play ME1 and 2 as a badass renegade but then proceed to play ME3 as kind of a newborn Space Jesus.
>pick best girl

I was talking about the fantastic xenophobia in ME1 more than anything.
>But I do remember my first time as a Soldier and how I basically had no ammo and got reggt by biotics a lot
Two words: Concussive Shot.
Plus you get M-11 Suppressor to play with! I swear to got, renegon female Infiltrator wearing a Recon hood, M-11 and Black Widow in all-black or gray camo armor was kino.
*I swear to God, playing as
Whoops, swallowed a few words
Splinter Cell: Conviction but in space
and that's a good thing
>shooting wrex
Never did it. What happens in 3 if you betray him?
She wasn't a xenophobe, she was cautious. She had very little experience with aliens due to the army keeping her grounded which was the alien's(turian's) fault. If anything the turian of the squad is the xenophobe. He talks shit to Wrex and Tali due to their races and no one pats an eye. Back to Ash, she was right about not trusting the council and do we even need to talk about the unstable space frog?
He finds out. It's not pretty.
>Splinter Cell: Conviction but in space
Exactly how I tried to play my FemShep.
I want to FUCK femshep!
>What happens in 3 if you betray him?
Pure kino, that's what happens
youtu.be
What a pure piece of shit would do.
What my Tyrone Shepard did.
>And since it isn't that great, it wont leave you wanting more afterwards. Seriously, do it.
I'm kind of disappointied that they've cancelled Quarian DLC. Andromeda isn't a great game, but it definitely had some good moments and I actually enjoyed it in the end.
>other species planned as DLC
It was doomed from the start, releasing a gimped, narrower in scope but in a new galaxy game, just plain retarded
did tyrone shoot legion thrice?
>This is a robbery! We want to harm no one! We're after the bank's money, not yours! Think of your beloved ones! Don't try to be a hero. Just shut up, and stay down, and this will be over in no time!

Would you believe the same exact team wrote for Andromeda?
Unironically made by a B team of affirmative action hires
Patrick Weekes wan't involved in Andromeda I thought.
Yeah, me too. Seems very obvious playing it through that the other races were planned for dlc from the start, so much so that it doesn't make sense why they wouldn't be present (like Quarians being the best engineers and coming through last).
If you play through Andromeda only doing the main and secondary quests (none of that random shit for npcs) the result is a faily solid Mass Effect spinoff.
Still sucked at launch tho
Fine. MOSTLY the same team.
Well, yes. I never trust anyone or anything, so It's not a shock for me if something that I loved fucks up. Badly. Just don't overstate your expectations and everything will be alright.
I'm tired of pain long time ago.
I
HAVE BEEN WONDERING ABOUT YOU
Based
>Why did it have to suck so much?
Because life is cruel.
>I'm tired of pain long time ago.
Andromeda permanently soured me on feeling hype for anything anymore. Thanks Bioware!
I will agree that it's fun to play. The multiplayer is ironically the best part of 3.
>Bjnh, Osexoxaio woy-sex'n'threehec
What a fucking mess of a language.
Male.
Default.
Every other Shepard is just an imposter
If Citadel was more like Heat maybe it would actually be good.
I still liked it though.
>cant enjoy stuff because it doesnt catter to your whims
>wants your ignorant views reflected on everything he do
>can't take it for what it is
and white dudes wonder why the industry doesnt catter to them anymore, just keep seething on some internet basement while everyone else are having fun
After the original ME3 ending, I can't support Bioware anymore.
I'd be insulted if you could actually spell.

How the fuck was the best boss fight in the game in a DLC where you fight your goddamn clone? Also Wrex as a party member again
>mass effect thread
aww shit, here we go again.
Which is better for a renegade run, maleshep or femshep?
>How the fuck was the best boss fight in the game in a DLC where you fight your goddamn clone?
Rival fights (or in this case your clone being your rival) are kino in general.
>youtube.com
mShep has the better voice for it, femShep feels more natural
>didn't kill Zaeed on his loyalty mission
>aww shit, here we go again
I know, right: Yea Forums is worth visiting once again.
>Which is better for a renegade run, maleshep or femshep?
My personal preference is Sheploo for renegade and paragade runs and Femshep for paragon and renegon.
Sheploo
>constraining yourself to one arbitrary "stance"
>not picking the options you wanna pick and cheating yourself extra paragon and renegade points so no dialogue choice is locked from you
Read the last line
How. The comedy in Citadel worked and it even managed to flesh out characters more. How tf can the exact same team be responsible for this and the crap that is Andromeda.
WHERE WILL YOU BE
WHEN THIS IS THROUGH?
>double (you)
DOUBLE NICE.
This is why we need a game about mercs on Illium/Omega.
It's not a bad, it's a disapointing game, it could have been just so much better.
I'm looking for an assassin
Why are you looking for him?..
You're not one of the Nassana's mercs. Who are you?
Answer my questions and I'll let you go.
for me, it's turian girls
Look pal, even if I knew where he was I wouldn't tell you.

What are they thinking?
It's not like anyone from that crew aside from Mordin, Kasumi and Zaeed were worth a damn anyway. And I'm mostly happy with how they handled Mordin and Zaeed.
They're probably thinking it will make them lots of money.
I want to FUCK The Mattock
Gotta milk out their best franchices while they still can
blyad, im literally playing with it rn
based
Think what you want about Cerberus, but if they found a way to improve Mattock they can't be all that bad.
Hey, whats not to love about a roided up mexican dude who's a total bro. This was back in a time when bioware could still write likeable characters as opposed to uggo trannies who nobody liked
>improved
To each their own I guess.
Don't get me wrong, I love the Harrier as well, I just prefer the semi-auto.
Well, I can understand user, because at first I was thinking that Vega is just another "HOOOORAH KILL EM ALL 159958 DEAD REAPERS" space-marine, but after playing a little bit, getting know him and watching anime about him he's totaly changed in my eyes. Good boy.
It isn't about been uncreative, its about ME's character creator sucking ass. If we had a good character creator like what we saw in inquisition maybe we wouldn't have to be sheploo.
As it stands you can either be sheploo or some asian looking roadkill with a fucked up nose
not liking James was a 2012 thing
>mfw I've never played sheploo
Play that new one. Andermeda or somesuch
>I just prefer the semi-auto
I mean, you can technically use Harrier as a semi-auto rifle. It's just that Mattock is missing the option to burst down a target, like the canopy of a Cerberus mech. In the end, both guns have similar stats except the Harrier is twice as heavy so I guess you're trading power refresh speed for having an fully automatic rifle.
However, I believe we can both agree that Typhoon is best dakka dakka.

When and where did they nerf it - ME2 or ME3 in singleplayer or multiplayer?
>What's Yea Forums opinion on that babe?
I always give it to Garrus, but not because it's good but because it's a Turian rifle and I like to match the guns to the species of whomever is using them.
Unironically a cool dude.
They completely downgraded the Revenant in ME3 singleplayer in almost every aspect except damage

It hurt so much when Ash was single again becuase I cheated on her with Jack and she almost slept with Vega. She was such a flirty gal. It hurt bros. :O(
I'm glad I got her back after talking to her though. I need Mass Effect 5 in the Milky Way.
To this day, I still cannot understand why they put Kai Leng in the game.
I can only assume one of the executives bought his young son to work one day, and he tugged on his father's sleeve and asked him to put a ninja in the game, so the devs had no choice but to put something together.
Mass Effect 4 you mean, user.
There was no 4.
This. The one good thing about andromeda is that they can just completely ignore it as it was in a different galaxy.
Haha imagine if for ME4 we'd go to an entirely different galaxy, see all-new species and worlds, and enjoy an engaging story on a more personal level about explorers trying to create a place for themselves in a completely alien environment
>Andromeda was supposed to be that
>after the first 10 hours it completely drops the whole exploration and colonization thing to chase a Saturday Morning cartoon version of the Reapers
The game is such a clusterfuck on so many levels.
Best combat in the series. Enemy variety made every class feel both fun and challenging. All the weapon were interesting and felt different, and the omniblade/biotic smash was cool.
In terms of story, Tuchanka/Rannoch were great. Probably the only good major story bits. The continuation of certain romances were good (Tali, Liara, Garrus) and I liked how your companions could be found in various different places in the Normandy AND how talked to each other. It felt like they were actual friends/comrades.
HOWEVER, the way they handled Cerberus, the Illusive Man, and the Reapers was absolute dogshit. The lack of any real side quests other than 'go here, collect this' pissed me off ESPECIALLY with the constant map reapers. The fact that they introduced a deus ex machina instead of pooling together the connections Shepard made throughout the last three games was a fucking sin.
Now I want to replay the trilogy while trying to make the companions as OP as possible.
> wanting to play a mass effect game without mass effect in it
I wish I got back that feeling playing 1 for the first time gave me.
>Killed Wrex
>Cured genophage
It's like you want the Krogans to rape the galaxy. Wrex is literally the only one who has the possibility of changing them.
Yeah, it all sounds like an interesting premise until you realize it ditches all things Mass Effect for the sake of... uh... nothing.
Is it just me or do hanar look damn delicious?
>Fuck. That.
Psst... google ME 3 Gibbed Save Editor:

Me too user... me too.
Some things should just die, user. There will be better new stuff.
I played the first two games multiple times years ago and never finished 3. I'm only going back to it to see the citadel DLC.
I'm not holding my breath for any new great IPs that build an entirely new unique world that is generally very popular.
I did the same thing, but then I just stopped playing before the final missions began. It was such a better experience.
No, there won't. There has be no good IP since 2012
>IP
no matter how many times you repeat them, those words are never going to gain real meaning
>I just stopped playing before the final missions began
Same here.
I just noticed that Mass Effect 2 save files... expire. That's the only way I can explain it. I tried to restart ME3 with my previous character but had to retry from the Suicide Mission autosave to get a new file since the original completion file was mysteriously missing. What happened next is even more weird. Mordin and Grunt were dead in the suicide mission even though I had done everyone's loyalty missions. So when you keep old Mass Effect save files on your computer, they slowly get rancid and produce sub-optimal outcomes when opened. I wouldn't be surprised if the next thing it tells me is that Wrex died on Virmire when I've literally never had a save where he dies.
Always bet on Todd! Starfield will be awesome
Destroy ending will be the canon one
Darkest Dungeon was great.
It's what happens when you hand the writing over to fuckface Mac Walters
Yes. If you ignore the abysmal, series-ruining ending, ME3 is a much better game than ME2.
The gameplay is fantastic (whereas ME2 does not hold up)
The general story beats and characters are better written.
We were told our choice would effect the fate of the galaxy, and that was a lie, but when you actually look at all the ways ME3 takes and uses your data from the first two games, it's staggering.
It's major mistake is that it fucks up all the lore and logic that was carefully set up in the first games, especially ME1. That, in turn, is part of what led to the awful ending. They cared more about making a story that would hit the proper emotional beats, rather than making a story that actually makes sense. Which makes it an incredibly entertaining game, right up until everything falls apart.
for some reason I feel like that, while the ending is bad, it doesn't retroactively kill the series for me. especially if you go with destroy
but if it killed the series for the mass majority of people then it doesn't matter, the majority rules. sad
>I just noticed that Mass Effect 2 save files... expire
That sounds kinda funky - maybe your HDD or SSD got damaged somehow.
How high and drunk do I have to get to enjoy this piece of shit "game"?
ME2 is the only one where you have to be underage, retarded or drunk/high to enjoy
On paper Andromeda was the perfect scam. A new, mostly unpopulated galaxy that is mostly procedurally generated. Of course the technology didn't actually work so they had to shoehorn it into a more "normal" Mass Effect at the last minute, and it ended up being even trashier than EA intended.
>Getting into ME3 I felt like ME2 didn't matter at all
Funny, I felt the same even while playing ME2.
You know the saying: the road to hell is paved with good intentions. Montreal tried to make an RPG that would function similarly to No Man's Sky (piloting, a large number of proceduraly generated planets with man-made sidequests) but has proved to be utterly incapable of fulfilling any of the things they were striving for.
it was a product of its time just like ff7 and mgs were back in the 90s so don't expect anything like it ever again. won't happen. and bioware is dead.
I've had it happen before. The last time only Legion died. Though his death wasn't registered until ME3, his corpse wasn't visible in the suicide mission. The only change I've made now is that I finally got the DLC for ME3 because for the first time ever EA actually put it on discount. It seems to have wiped my ME2 completion save so I couldn't start with that character and that character's autosave got fucked and killed random team members for no reason. Now I figured out that I had saved with that character in ME3 after Mars right in the beginning so I can start there. And whaddya know, no names of dead Mordin or Grunt on the ship wall. Because it's a continuation of a ME2 save where they survive. That ME2 save just disagrees nowadays.
>Can we finally agree
I fucking hate this reddit speak, can't you make your own opinion?
This.
Eve (Bakara) and Wrex are both good leaders, who actually want the best for the krogan. If they die, Wrex asshole brother Wrev leads them. And he wants to basically go back to conquering all the other races.
I am incredibly disappointed with how short 2 is without their filthy DLC. "Deluxe Edition" my fucking ass
>It's a meme
Wrong!
>EDI as a squad member instead of Legion
WHAT WERE THEY THINKING
This one believes you are a monster.
Why does the news journalist in ME3 have such a fucking fat face?
Most of us were done long before that ending. That ending was just cemented the feelings many of us had. I was checking out from the god damn start. The whole game is a hack job
Well they do use that shit as a bait reaction. It’s why “and that’s a good thing” was used for a bit.
and here's why
One of the worst of the series.
It established the path towards ME3 styled Cerberus, and its entire premise breaks the already established lore of the series.
The geth don't fucking speak a language, they communicate at lightspeed.
That would all of course be permissible if the gameplay was actually fun or if the story developed some characters, but it didn't.
