I booted up Mass Effect 1 for the first time in years, largely because I'm stuck using my old laptop that can't run anything this side of Windows 7.

Holy moly.

I'd forgotten how much more intelligent the game is than any of its sequels. Mass Effect 2 was slick and polished and had some great character interaction, but its gunplay was generic cover shooter, and the space battles in 2 and 3 were all done at super close range for the cameras.

ME1 had a no-poo poo encyclopedia of "how physics works" to back up its world. Active and passive sensors, lightspeed propagation delay messing with situational awareness of ship locations, space battles being slugfests until somebody's point defenses overheated etc etc.

This only makes me more bitter about Andromeda.

ME1 had a certain charm and cool sense of exploration the others didn’t. It didn’t age too well though imo and the gunplay changes in 2 were welcome

1-3 was pure visceral satisfaction from being a (demigod) wrecking ball made of nothing but rage and violence. Between the whole Laconism and ganking his first family while in the process of selling his soul it does kinda cover why Kratos is completely detached. The poo poo with Pandora in 3 showed him reluctantly, unwillingly regaining a little bit of a gently caress to give and then having it completely snatched away, fueling the insane murder ball for the climactic end.

His (second) wife and kid are a completely new thing, part of the necessary evolution of character both with Kratos himself and the series as a whole in order to avoid the Call of Duty same-poo poo-different-day rehash churn.

Ok that makes a bit more sense, thanks! I tried 3 or whatever remaster on PS4 but turned it off after about 15 mins. I also have whatever versions on my vita but lol if I’ll ever get around to those

How does it start out again? The gods gently caress him and his soldiers over in some battle or some poo poo so then he just goes on some gently caress all gods I’m gonna kill them all rampage? Thought I remember reading something like that years ago. I never had a PS3 so I missed all that

“We don’t really know where this goes — and I’m not sure we really care.”
ME1 is one of my all time favorite games. I think it aged fine, the combat was fun though the side planets could be generic and boring.

Exploring ruined cities a thousands of years old dead civilization was cool as gently caress. Especially Feros I think which had fighting between geth and colonists and you could see sporadic fire coming from skyscrapers in the distance.

because while I enjoy my surface and the concept it’s a janky piece of poo poo with no battery life

I literally still cannot update it as it just shoots back an error when it tries to automatically install this one specific update. I’m hoping a proper wipe and such fixes it but I’ve been too lazy to even get around to that. Trust me I thought all the windows 8 hate was overblown aside from them really wanting it to be like the windows phone with tiles and poo poo but things have only rapidly gotten worse and worse

The handoff feature is also another selling point. But yeah, just wish macs weren’t so stupidly overpriced

in their effort to shave micromillimeters off the laptop size they started shipping them with garbage keyboards that fail permanently if a speck of dust manages to get underneath a key and the only model with dedicated video costs $2400. the video chip is complete trash on par with an Nvidia GT 1030 (entry level PC laptops almost universally come with at least a 1050)

My MacBook Air from 2013 owns bones. SSD, i5 and maxed out RAM at the time made it expensive af at the time.

But 5 years on its rock solid, and still as quick as the day I bought it.

Shithouse for games though, which is why I ended up buying a PC.

I got an iPad Pro for photo editing. I still can’t believe how much faster it is at handling 45-50 mb raw files versus an i5 quad core/gtx 1080 desktop.

Did you get the keyboard or whatever surface-esque poo poo they have now?

I’ve considered going that route but honestly the main thing I love about the surface making it hard to get away is the dock. I plug in one cable and I have multiple USB ports, LAN, and screen mirroring to my gently caress off huge 34” monitor.

I’m pretty out of touch with Apple poo poo outside of the phones. I won’t be gaming on it so I don’t care about all that
