Where will you be... When this is through?

but they're all painted humans because they were cultivated by the Protheans and Reapers

I can name like five series that makes Mass Effect look like garbage. Pic related is one of them.

ME1 was only vaguely serviceable as an RPG. The series improved as it further shed the few RPG characteristics it had, in favor of better combat, powers, and build customization.
ME3 is unironically the best in the trilogy for this reason.

Excellent taste

Even with the stupid lore Star Wars and 40k have retarded lore too but still manage to keep their guns looking good and like an actual gun.

His autistic cries to how majority of people find Mass Effect and Waframe "guns" visually and mechanically repulsive.

Why don't zoomers like scifi? Or any games?

Too much sòy from nintendo.

>implying modern kids don't avoid nintendo like the plague

Woah, you can't even read the the thread before answering me. Here's your (you), kid.
every fucking sci-fi universe have issues and 1-2 human-like species
implying that one series is better than another is idiotic

>one quote about guns
>he's totally talking about them

I still don't understand the autistic ranting going on. What the fuck are your points?

Who actually likes Nintendo still? I mean I liked my gameboy and pokemon when I was eight, but now?

Majority of series has much better things though. For one having weapons that don't look like toys.

That's a war setting first.
Mass Effect is Sci-Fi before anything else.
And as such, it does Sci-Fi better than Halo

Mass Effect is cool but the RPG elements are trash. Leveling doesn't feel good because you at best get 2-3 more abilities you will get within 10 levels and the rest is mere small % bonuses. All gear is just small incremental upgrades that don't have any noticeable effect out of switching ammo types. It's trash. Dialogur choices are mere illusions that all lead to the same thing.

Setting and atmosphere is cash. But damn.

Sci-fi user, not space fantasy.

Name a better RPG from the 360 generation

>ships, aliens, AI, supersoldiers,
>LE NOT SCI-FI
Trash Effect Zoomers are so stupid I swear.

Why do they focus so much on humans in ST and SW?

Fallout New Vegas, wow that was so hard.

This is a bad post.

Mass Effect is just Star Wars with technobabble instead of "The Force".
Halo is, or rather was a Starship Troopers knockoff with more Tom Clancy esque military porn flavoring.

dude bible bugs lmao

1st: you swallowed a huge fucking bait and (like im doing rn) you all responded with Halo or KOTOR - the most uninteresting shit
2nd: usually HALOfags are very very proud that they playing a video game with an "really cool AI! veri smart!" and "hi-tech realistic guns! veri veri realistic!"
3rd: people seriously implying that *this franchise* is better than *this franchise*
like I said, every sci-fi shit universe have troubles with literally everything, and you need to understand that there is no better universe than others
conclusion: if I want to romance blue space woman with a hair-tentacles - I will, and there is nothing anyone can do about this
play what you want and eat shit

Much better than Trash Effect lowl.

Mass Effect is a better Sci-Fi setting than Halo.
If you can't see this, either you've never read any Sci-fi outside of Star Wars or something or you are an utter brainlet.
>zoomer
get a real argument, also cope

unironic boomers itt

They should really make some sequels to this game, that'd be nice.

Which interesting Sci-Fi concept is the focus of Halo?
Does it seek to answer the Fermi Paradox perhaps?
Does it seek to explore artificial intelligence?
No it's Space religious wars, what utter nonsense.
They are good games.
They just aren't particularly Sci-Fi.

>476643298
I'm not even going to give this retarded post a (you) but considering Halo has logistics of having Space Elevators, shipyards for vessels that can't enter planetary gravity wells, Ships that aren't aerodynamic and instead look like a ship meant for space Halo seems to be the more logical sci-fi.

here you go

Star Trek is about Human potential.
Star Wars is about space samurai, swords are made for people not space aliens.

You are VERY stupid, my user..

weren't space elevators only introduced to the setting in that web series that precluded the release of Halo 4?
Remember Normandy SR1 was designed for both atmospheric and space travel.
And things like Kilimanjaro are better designed for space combat than anything from halo

No retard Space Elevators existed since Halo 2 seeing it in the background on Earth during the Bridge crossing. And your second half of your post means Trash Effect is space fantasy because proper vessels can't swap into planet atmosphere and space at will because a planets gravity well will pull it down into a fiery destruction. Just like real life Galleons and Sloops can't ever get near land without being beached and recked on the Shoal, maybe a Skiff which is exactly what a Frigate would be so long as it's properly rated for Atmosphere, of course Trash Effect never thinks of this because lol magic space ship look like plane zoom zoom!

Not him but Mass Effect is just "space cop fights ancient evil" so it's really not much better.

Yeah thslat looks pretty cool, even cooler is that they can pick up a full grown human, seethe more.

I think it's quite obvious that the existence of the Reapers was the Mass Effect response to the Fermi Paradox.

not based

>proper vessels can't swap into planet atmosphere and space
So the Shuttles never existed then?
oh ok

Most sci-fi is about the philosophy of the situation rather than the actual science. Aliens likely do not exist as we think they do, but what if?
That being said I agree Halo is weak, giant superweapons to combat incomprehensible evils and, as you said, space religious wars.

Weak sci-fi is still sci-fi though.

Yeah dingy boats existed you slack jawed retard. The entire shuttle is unusable trash that either crashes down or floats in space and only a miniscule pod lands, or crashes into the sea.

Wrex.

Are you high? The game is full of other alien civilizations. The Mass Relays and the Citadel being a Reaper trap to draw in other civilizations is a fundamental plot point of the first game.

> The entire shuttle is unusable trash that either crashes down or floats in space and only a miniscule pod lands, or crashes into the sea.
Do you know what a shuttle is user? They landed on runways.
As long as you can get a thrust to weight and aerodynamics ratio right you can make a space plane.

>he Mass Relays and the Citadel being a Reaper trap to draw in other civilizations is a fundamental plot point of the first game.
Exactly which is why there were no extremely advanced spacefaring civilizations.
And all the spacefaring civilizations we meet have at most been interstellar for only 3000 years.

The reapers exist to tick off the "ancient evil awakens" shtick that Bioware loves to rehash. That they kinda sorta solve the Fermi paradox is probably a coincidence and a byproduct of the setting. That aside the game itself is not about exploring science fiction concepts, it's about shooting robots in the face and chasing a cyborg alien who works for fucking space Cthulu.

There were tons of Science fiction concepts explored in Mass Effect. Van Neuman probes are banned by the citadel council, the titular Mass Effect is a science fiction concept and an application of theoretical physics, artificial gravity generated by centrifugal force on the Citadel.

You're right the best sci fi game of the 2000s is not half life

The Halo rings explain the same thing though.

cool dog

And Halo explores similar science fiction concepts if you actually read the autistic lore. It doesn't matter what the rationale behind some of the technology is or how many references are in the encyclopedia. Both series are still primarily concerned with shooting aliens and robots and trying to stop an ancient evil.
