Mymla posted:Yeah, same. Only human protagonists, and humans being the bestest at everything for no reason has always been one of the worst parts of mass effect. Kind of wish humans where a little more like how they are shown in Babylon 5. Sure they showed up and ended up kicking a mid-tier species rear end but then got curbed stomped after picking a fight with the toughest species on the bock. precision posted:They should really tie the DA and ME games together by putting Iron Bull in. We know from Kasumi's loyalty mission that they take place in the same universe. How so? (I never played any of the DA games so I would have no idea what to look for). Was it something similar to the Alien head trophy in Predator 2?

Toxic Fart Syndrome posted:What was the big deal with ME3 MP? I tried it a couple of times and it was the same boring cover-shooting that the main game had: nothing I would want to play in its own right... Horde mode with different powers and builds. At the time the only other Horde Mode was Gears of War 3 but with MS3 Horde mode there was a ton of different weapons/combos/abilities to mix and match with. It was also pretty cool how new weapons/class/races kept coming out that were not just reskins of the first couple of classes. Like a Solider class between races would actually have different strength/weakness (not just abilities) that would come into play in higher level matches. It also created great stories with a lone person making a last stand taking out the final wave and living to the extract while the rest of the party cheers him/her on.

Helith posted:I'm not convinced that Bioware are actually good enough to pull off everything in that list in a meaningful and genuinely interesting way. The biggest red flag is that they haven't done any video showing off ANY of what the article was talking about. Sure there is something on Dec 1st but words mean nothing until we all see at least of what the article was talking about in action.

tribbledirigible posted:Right, so it's like ME2's suicide mission, but instead of how many you can keep alive, it's how many you can gently caress. I'm going to go the FailRyder route of trying to get with the claustrophobic in the vents. What was the most amount of people that can die and still win again in ME2? I remember a youtube where some one figured it out and the last "Hold the Line" speech was to like one person.

Android Blues posted:Yeah, I would have loved to see what the Milky Way looks like post-Control, with unknowable godhead Shepard sequestered in a Reaper somewhere and the rest of society reacting to these big, eerie Reapers just floating around their shipping lanes apparently doing the will of the techno-demigod who saved the galaxy ten years ago. That sounds like a good rear end setting. I'm afraid the current batch of writers would have pulled a Blizzard and "corrupted" a control Shepard. I mean it COULD be interesting if the plot was trying save a techno-demigod that was slowly loosing its humanity/growing indifferent to organic species either from within/outside sources but after ME3 I don't see that turning out well.

Moola posted:I think leaving the galaxy for Andromeda in ark ships to escape the reapers actually would have been a cool ending I totally would have been fine with the Freespce 2 type end mission where the war assets/lead up was to get as many ark ships of different races out of the Milky Way while destroying enough Reapers to give the next cycle a better chance. exquisite tea posted:I never imagined Shepard "coming back" in the Control version of the galaxy, but rather their morality gradually morphing into the same unknowable alien intellect that led the OG Reaper AI down the path they took. Shepard in Control is very much dead, or at least exists solely as a machine consciousness with only vague memories of who they once were. I would have liked to see future entries in the Mass Effect series attempt to deal with rebuilding the galaxy in the aftermath of the Reaper War, I think there would be a lot of interesting stories to tell and you wouldn't even have to focus on any of the original cast. Yeah like its 200 or so years after the Reaper Wars with a whole new Spectre that just got the attention of that distant weird Reaper that helps out some times. Like is there a Cult of the Reaper that worships Control Shepard? Do people still trust the Control Shepard/The Mass Effect gates?

Mazerunner posted:Kai LAME indirectly gave us the N7 Slayer in mutliplayer which despite being a big weeaboo class was cool and fun to play Sooo I actually went back and not only are there people playing ME3 multiplayer (alot too, I never have to wait more then a few seconds to get a game AND there is no lag) its possible (and easy) to Cheat Engine a crap ton of credits to buy packages with. Like rumor has it that the dude that did the MP banning doesn't even work for EA any more. I'm loving actually getting all the classes/weapons I missed out on and messing around with them.

Spacebump posted:How do I cheat engine those credits? Here is a video (sightly NWS for the dude desktop background) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1PlYU95V9Q Basically 1. Get Cheat Engine 2. Start Mass Effect 3 3. Hook Cheat Engine to Mass Effect 3 exe (video will show you which button to push in Cheat Engine) 4. Go to Mass Effect Multiplayer 5. See how many credits you have, search for that value (again, video will give you a good demo on how to do this) 6. Buy something, and scan for the new amount of credits you have 7. Cheat Engine will now have the memory address where how much credits you have is stored locally. You can now change that value freely.

Dexo posted:Doom had like zero marketing or hype pre-release and was the second best game last year. No, Doom had marketing and hype but it was for dumbass multiplayer. It wasn't until the Nvida live demo when people realized "Oh poo poo, the SP is insanely fast and fun!". But yes waiting until reviews is the best bet here. I'm tempted if there is some massive deal on pre-release that drops it to say $30 or so but other then that everyone only wins by playing the waiting game.

Drifter posted:Oh, it's Bioware. We know every character will suck, and there'll probably be cutscenes leading up to that once you start romancing them. I just worry Bioware will make the new group of companions to be shallow copies of the original ME characters. Like they are going to try to force the female Turian into gender swapped Garrus without really understanding why every one lived him.

Obviously I can't tell if it does the same for Cora, but I don't think either is an improvement aesthetically over the old. Its time to final frontier that galactic rear end.

Philonius posted:The story (and especially the ending) in 3 was beyond retarded, but I still found it to be a very enjoyable game. My problem is that the ending was so bad for me that it completely stopped me from playing the game again. It was a total "well, thats that" moment and I just didn't care any more. Haven't even bought/played the DLC because of it. Did go back to the mulitplayer for a while (even bought 3 other friends ME3 when it was $5 on amazon) to do some Horde Mode but after ME3 ending I never touched the story again.

Girl Ryder seems more capable, but in a Dora the Explorer sort of way. The more I think about it yeah that is kind of bothering me. Its becoming a little too anime where its a young person saving the world instead of the battle proven and experienced 30 year old saving the world.
