>>320115415
1 is simple, fun if dull and occasionally badly written well past what is okay even for cheesy stuff.
It has a big TWEEST that is the cornerstone of the entire story, which you can sort of see from a mile off, but it's fun nonetheless.
On the whole it's a pretty streamlined game, with dated combat and graphics, but if what you want is a fun, standard serving of Star Wars, definitely a good time.

2 is Obsidian territory. An overall improvement to the interface and the gameplay is made deeper (mind that all of which is made pointless as both games are ridiculously easy), the companions are MUCH improved, the locations don't just rely on the Star Wars Movie Location factor to get your interest, generally the story, writing and characters are the best thing to happen to Star Wars since Empire Strikes Back.
It has some of the best vidya characters ever written, period.

BUT
BUT
BUT

You have to play the game with the restored content mod because a ridiculous amount of content almost done was cut out to meet a far too early release date. Even with the restorations you get a sense of how much more the game could have been, and it will leave you wanting more with no legitimate place to turn to.
The game is a lot more heavy critical (though not in contempt despite what some people might say) of the source material, and if all you want is a simple serving of unassuming Star Wars fun you might not like this game very much.

I think Control is the best ending.

Synthesize forces all beings into something against their will.
Destroy causes the mass relays to be destroyed, and all the reaper tech is gone.

Control though, all the reaper tech is salvaged and the mass relays are protected. On top of that, all the reaper beings can help rebuild the galaxy they destroyed. Even further, you now have the most powerful beings to ever exist defending the galaxy.

The suicide mission was GOAT, loyalty missions were insightful, Cerberus weren't "le evil bad guise", Mordin was well done and the side quests were all far better written than the copy and pasted ME1 side quests, cliffhanger was actually done well, Collectors were also a lot more than initially believed

How was ME1 better written?

I originally played the first and second games on the 360 when they came out and never got to play the DLC for the second game. I now want to play the whole trilogy on PC (Yeah, I know, but I have to at least play the third myself before I can judge it) and I own 1 & 2 on Steam without DLC. What is the best/easiest way to get all DLC for both?
>>
>>320116967
But the previous 2 games are cemented on the fact that all allegiance and desire to control reapers is -the- bad choice.

The fact that suddenly, when one of the writers leaves the other writes a plot where its acceptable to to control reapers tech because "you're good enough to pull it off" is akin to lord of the rings frodo suddenly using the ring for his powers and using it for good. In which case, boromir shouldn't have ever died in the first place, and he dies for nothing. Because suddenly the tone of the story changes and its A-Ok to use the ring even tho the previous 2 films all established the tone for Doom to whoever wore it.

>why doesn't frodo use the ring?
Because the tone is one where such an act is incompatible.

>why does shep choose control?
Because the tone of the entire series was thrown out of the window as the devs ran out of ideas for how to organically implement the 3 different endings .

Thanks, but I had already looked into trying to do so and didn't see a decent way to buy it. Couldn't see it on Steam, though it's possible I was just an idiot and missed it, and trying to buy it from BioWare's site was a mess... Required BP points which I could find no way to buy, and that were surely a massive rip-off.
>>
>>320117968
Well I'd hope the MP changes a little bit. Would be weird to still focus on the reaper war.

Besides having it in a simulated arena helps it out by giving natural explanations for patches, bugs, new stages and new enemies and all that shit.

But it was fun, only good thing that still keeps me playing 3.

It makes sense in the end.
>>
>>320120682
The original apex race built a program because the races around them, at the time, kept killing themselves by building murderous synthetics. It's job was to find a solution to the synthetic building problem, and it reached the conclusion that once a race gets to advanced, it will eventually destroy themselves by building synthetics. So, it formed Harbringer and wiped out most of it's creators and now massacres the most intelligent races of each 'cycle' to prevent them from destroying themselves.

I know it doesn't make any sense, but that's the reason.

Yes, but only if I didn't need a season pass for online

Mass Effect 3 controls smoothly and has smoother shooting, yes, BUT, it was designed with shit balance in mind and is far too easy, same as ME1, where you can easily become broken.

Mass Effect 2 isn't as smooth as 3, but Insanity is balanced insanely well to where skill is rewarded, and if you know how to balanced squad powers and specific squadmates (all of which are more than usable) you can go through any mission of the game just fine.

In ME3 all you need to do is get any high-tier weapon and pair it with an ammo power and you'll rape everything. It's pretty smooth and isn't so easily broken as ME1 without the Particle Rifle or the Lancer but it's still way too easy a game and with fewer (gameplay-wise) diverse squad mates.

ME1 is broken by the time you get to NG+, all you need is spectre weapons and heat sinks and you're OP, which you can get fairly early in your NG run if you know what to do.

Not sure I follow. How did ME1 have more exploration than any other game in the series?
>>
>>320121674
Of course all that would be great.

The only thing that would suck about being in Andromeda is that there are no places to go deal with cyberpunky-crime, there are no Omegas or Citadel Wards or Illiums to go deal with underworld punks and crime syndicates and smugglers and mercenary bands and shit.

I bet it'll still be good, even ME3 was good despite how much it's been criticized.
>>
>>320121932
You could actually explore the surface of various planets. Admittedly it was a small part of the surface but me2 and me3 were literally just hallways.

Awesome.

Cool. The Makos general problem was that climbing up mountains was a slog, if they can fix that it should be more than fine.

Just don't mess something up when you refine it.

Heres hoping. But it is Bioware, after all
>>
>>320122000

Nice trips. Mass Effect was always a space opera, wait for Cyberpunk 2077 or Deus Ex for cyberpunk. Mass Effect will never give you that cyberpunk feeling. ME2 admittedly came close with Omega but that's it.

>>320121932

In that you can fully explore planets rather than them being linear
>>
>>320122241
I mean I liked it a lot, but it sucks that they were all marked on your map and you didn't really have to find anything.

If you were doing a completionist playthrough that'd be annoying, but for general exploring it'd be great since you wouldn't know where anything was and you would just have to drive around to find stuff.

Alternatively they could leave maps unmarked but you could place markers on your maps yourself that were permanent so you could know where everything was if you decided to come back and see if you had missed something previously.
>>
>>320121674
>no loading vetween space and planets

Highly doubt it, if anything its probably a flying minigame to make it feel like youre not in a load screen or like the divisions "load screens"

Namcos patent on load minigames expired this year.
>>
>>320121674
>ME3 combat albiet refined even more

This is is what scares me. Bioware/EA doesn't do refinement. They do 'slash and burn everything and make it retard-proof'. They axed the Mako because they wanted to 'refine' resource gathering and then fucked even that up in 3 and turned the already dull as fuck planet scanning in to hide and seek. Don't even get me started on Dragon ages 'refined' combat.
>>
>>320122462

>Highly doubt it

Why? seamless loading is a huge thing these days and given the fact that the planets will likely be small contained areas (albiet giving the illuision of size) I don't doubt the possibility. This game has been in development for years, Bioware are claiming that something huge is in store for us.

I don't doubt this will be it. They need to make it feel different from the first games

>1 has some huge texture mod that didn't work for me though, seemed really cool too
For anyone else that has this problem of the game crashing with the texture mod installed, it's because the amount of RAM the game can use is limited to 2gb and with all the huge new textures it'll use 2-3 times the amount of that. There's a program out there that allows you to increase this amount and thus fixing the crashes.

>>
>>320126457
The general premise is that they're a last-ditch effort to save humanity and the Citadel races by putting them on a huge colonial ship and flying it out of the Reapers' reach. They've yet to explain how, but they've ended up in Andromeda.
>>
so Destroy is the canon ending right?

It's the only one shepherd survives in
>>
>>320126936
Presumably because Andromeda was the ships' target. What with not having Reapers all up in its shit and all.

You think mass relays are 'sublight'? I'm sure they'll shoehorn a superfuckingduper mass relay that propels you there or some shit.
>>
>>320124623
I really dislike the good/evil system altogether. It allows for minimal roleplaying and is just a shitty excuse for a branching narrative. That is the part I disliked the most in ME becuase I really hate playing assholes and always try to make the best out of the situation, and Paragon presents it on a nice little plate every time, so it gets old pretty fast. I hope they make more "gray area" choices in Andromeda.
>>
>>320127043
They just had everyone FTL home in the good Destroy ending, you think Bioware cares about canon?

They aren't, but I don't remember anything about a relay on Andromeda with a correspondent pair on our galaxy

Don't the ships in ME use FTL travel outside of relays? How else does the Normandy fly across solar systems so fast? I understand that it's not happening in real-time and may even take days, but without FTL it would take years.
>>
>>320115006
Played Vanguard in ME1. Quit ME2 after 20 minutes cause they had changed how the class system worked.
>>
>>320122542
ME2's combat was a million times better than ME1, and ME3 added back in the "RPG" elements after autists complained. If I were you I wouldn't worry about Andromeda, because the focus on RPG they're talking about probably appeals to you. I sort of am worried, because I don't want a bunch of guns of +5 strength and rng 20% chance to crit combat in the game, but if that's where they're heading then so be it. Hopefully refinement just means they'll make melee not suck.
>>
>>320127285

It never was evil though, it's lawful good and chaotic good.
>>
>>320127376
Not in the cutscene they show you with Hackett's "Future Many Will Never See" speech. It just shows everyone flying home past the broken relay. Sure it shows a repaired Citadel but it never shows how they fixed the scorched Earth.
>>
>>320127439
>Don't the ships in ME use FTL travel outside of relays?

If they did the Mass Relays would be useless
>>
>>320127485
In theory. In practice Renegade was just evil, they even gave you "Darkside corruption" with implant scars.
>>
>>320127517
Yeah, cus they take the destroyed Reapers and use that tech to learn how to repair the relays

If they could repair the Citadel they could definitely repair the relays pretty quickly and get everything back to normal
>>
>>320127517
Guess destroy isn't canon.
>>
>>320127412

STFU and GTFO. Let it go you fucking manchild racist, sexist piece of shit.
>>
>>320127483
ME2's combat was awful. The controls were stiff as fuck and you couldn't even roll. Biotics got nerfed to hell and back, and they dumbed down a lot of the RPG mechanics. ME3 was better in that regard at least.
>>
>>320114943
Since i thought the last 3 were terrific, no, I don't think it will be.
>>
>>320127485
Except in ME2-3 it's more Lawful Evil, seeing as you can do some highly questionable shit and be an all-out fuckface to everyone you meet. Chaotic Good is more of a Robin Hood mentality. And anyway, I was talking about the general system, like in inFamous, for example.

Even if they did use FTL it'd still take an incredibly long tome to chug from one star cluster to the next. Mass Relays are ridiculous ultra-FTL machines that let you jump between systems in minutes rather than days or weeks.
>>
>>320127587
My point is that they never SHOW that. It happens off-screen and everyone just flies home.
>>320127589

>>320127837

>>320129267
I imagine that since other than using quantum entanglment like in ME3 for some very choice and limited number instantaneous communications, they would need to rely otherwise on whatever they used normally, which would be something akin to radio or whatever, since they had somehow before used comm relays near relays themselves to send messages over the relays to other places as fast as possible, and since radiowaves travel at the fastest at light speed if I remember right, then it would take them however many light years there are between the Milky Way and Andromeda to communicate about the Reapers being stopped if they sent no QTC aboard the Ark or whtaever ship that is going to Andromeda
