Try not to cry when you realize how good Bioware used to be
all 3 games, all SP DLC (that matters, pinnacle station was a shitty horde mode that people didn't even care about at release), and tons of QOL additions across the board. dat value
will be playing on PC for the mods obv

Wish we could change FOV a bit.
Film grain is basically imperceptible at 4K.
God the film grain on the old versions was some of the most egregious shit lol.

I've not booted up my PS4 (it's impossible to get a PS5 in Ireland) since last November. For Mass Effect I will tho. I've missed that incredible Galaxy Map music from the first game.
kaiden is a total bitch i really forgot lmao

By barber Go To PostExcited to eventually pick this up
Haven't played any in the series
How strong is the writing?
it's serviceable for the two first games.
By Cleff Go To PostLooking forward to hating Kai Leng again.I played 3 and for some reason I don't remember a single thing about him
just googled him and I genuinely can't recall ever seeing that character. All I remember is the illusive man shenanigans

By Hitch Go To PostDoes it, or did you just forget?it controls 'better' but I'm used to drifting this bitch sideways and rocket jumping while expecting inverse gravity to launch me over mountains
this shit feels like mafia with a jump button 😂
The old Mako controls separated the children from the men. If you killed a Thresher Maw on insanity you earned your stripes.
The following are fixes and improvements we’ve made across all platforms in this update.
General
Fixed the main issue where the launcher would crash or become unresponsive on Xbox Series X when using a wireless headset
Known issue: This can still happen if you enable/disable a headset in the launcher. A future fix will resolve this issue.
Improved iris shaders for better interaction with light and ambient occlusion
Minor calibrations, fixes, and stability improvements
Mass Effect
Improved terrain textures
Fixed an issue where kills for achievements/trophies weren’t tracking correctly
Mass Effect & Mass Effect 2
Resolved an issue where the character code would sometimes not display in the squad menu
Improvements to pre-rendered cutscenes to reduce occasional artifacts
Mass Effect 2
Improved lighting and shadows in some cinematics
Minor visual, rendering, and VFX improvements on some levels
Resolved minor text issues with achievements
Mass Effect 3
Fixed an issue where kills for achievements/trophies weren’t tracking correctly
I thought there were alternative controls for the Mako now, where they be?
Downed my first Thresher Maw.

By LabouredPatriot Go To PostSome of this terrain is harder than the Thresher Maw :(each pixel might be the pixel you need
By Pennywise Go To PostDone with ME1.ngl im actually looking forward to ME2. gonna knock out bring down the sky tonight then virmire. hyped for new 4k kaiden dialogue
Now time for the best part.
I've gone with Adept this time in ME1. Aiming this stuff is not very optimal (I seem to remember it being easier in the other two). Not sure I'll persist with Adept in the next two.

Not sure I'll persist with Adept in the next two.yeah, aiming abilities is shit in general in ME1 because it relies so heavily on LoS that targeting anything is a crapshoot at times. going behind cover or using stuff on the move just throws stuff all over the place. those problems are long gone in ME2 and 3 though.
Think I went with Vanguard last time. Might switch over to more of a gunboi class for ME2, unless anyone thinks Adepts get gud in ME2.
Seems more optimal just to have a biotic user in your team instead.

in ME1, the only thing you really 'need' is someone to unlock boxes and some form of reliable CC. the biggest threats in the whole game are krogans and primes just running straight at you. hammerhead/sledgehammer rounds/HE rounds can slap anything else.
in me2/3, there's the combo system, layered enemies, and all that. whole different kind of gameplay

Oh yeah, I know it's relatively early but damn I have no money and I've not really been spending it. Everything's super expensive and barely better than what I find on relatively low level missions.

There's just so much stuff you can sell while exploring and stuff.
you go from broke as fuck and humble to filthy rich and disrespectful in about 10 levels
and a little omnigel never hurt anyone. sucks you still have to keep a tech person around no matter what tho

I thought I remembered how bad the combat was in ME1. I did not. Even with the "fixes" in this edition it is still truly awful. Using powers feels like a dog dirt lottery. But the music and atmosphere make it worth playing still.
But I maintain: anyone who thinks the sequels "ruined" Mass Effect is wrong and a grotesquely ugly freak. Thanks.

The drop off in storytelling and narrative is monstrous lol
Going from Feros and Noveria to a s s u m i n g c o n t r o l is jarring. I still don't think the gameplay transition is worth it til 3.

One thing I'm appreciating more this time round is the sheer amount of groundwork ME1 does in terms of world/universe building. ME2 and 3 would be nowhere without it.
ME1 Codex da real MVP.

Adept is cooler in 2 & 3 but in higher difficulties all you do is combo break barriers and shields. Can move on to CC once you get singularity.
Miranda is the most useful squadmate in this regard, but she's a wet blanket to have around all th time.
That's why most people prefer vanguard in terms of "fun". It's straight up in and out damage dealer. I still think Infiltrator is the best class if you are going max difficulty of course.
