For real, ME2 was always Grunt + Miranda for me, both for Krogan shotgunning and dat rear end. (Side note it's hilarious to me that if you GIS "Miranda dat rear end," exactly what you'd expect comes up.)

ME3's real flaw was no Krogan teammate outside of the Citadel DLC.

If you preordered you got Javik who is easily the best squad mate of the series.

Also gently caress EA for making Javik DLC

You will find no one to help you here. Beth DuClare has been dissected and placed in cryonic storage.

Femshep's voice actress is a gigantic improvement over dudeshep. The latter sounds like a bored IT guy; the former sounds like a proper xeno-killing badass.

I would normally cycle out garrus grunt and zaeed for full own age. I'm playing Andromeda multi at the moment and it's hard to tell where shots are coming from and there are some weird game play changes. Not bad just different. I'll see how I get on with it

Femshep is really loving good if you do the total renegade rear end in a top hat route.

i dunno i thought it was pretty lol when she starts ranting about the human cost of the wars and you can make shepard totally call her on her poo poo

vanguard is tricky to master but once you get the hang of the combat it's an insanely knife edge class to play

I have been playing the multi as part of the trial and.... I'm not sold, to put it lightly.
The feel of the game (and don't ask me to quantify it, I can't) is way off.
The positional audio is absolute dogshit to the point where I generally can't tell where fire is coming from.
The netcode is still p2p, which means massive lag rendering that round completely unplayable.
The enemies still have instakills, which everyone loved.

I picked up and played ME3 for well over 300 hours so it's not like I dislike the series but... it's not scratching the itch for me.
I'm going to finish the trial period - have about 7 hours left - but they seem to have hosed up majorly along the way. It's just missing SOMETHING.

AP is one of only a few games I've bought more than once, just because it's so, so good. The writing has some of the best corny dialogue in any game. I love it.

Playing PS3 games is oddly comforting. The graphics and controller are like a time machine to when I was way young and life was chill.

I had one at launch in 2006. That made me super popular in the dorms on Ramstein.

I've been playing mine a bit more recently. I have a ton of PS3 games that I bought for cheap when the ps4 was launched and used game prices dropped on ps3 so hard. Recently played through Yakuza 3, RE4, and am doing a Nier run now. Been switching back and forth between the systems. I like PS3 games but god the interface is so slow and terrible compared to ps4.
