I don't get why there is an expectation that the Mass Effect 3 trilogy must be a true masterpiece of literary brilliance.  There have been so many trilogies which have started off promisingly enough but ended on a damp squib.  The Godfather trilogy, the original star wars trilogy, the Matrix trilogy. spider-man, terminator?
Still better than the Mass Effect 3 ending. tongue.gif

Finish my insanity playthrough. Nothing really hard if to be compared to collector base in mass effect 2.

The Kai Leng part is the hardest so far I experienced.

Yeah, I'm going to play ME1 again. Just to get a feel of the brilliance Bioware once was.
Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter Nights, KOTOR, Jade Empire, Dragon Age: Origins, Mass Effect... good times biggrin.gif

Then it all went downhill sad.gif

What a lot of people didn't know is that, during that part of the cinematic, you can actually turn your camera around to see Tali's face smile.gif

Go try it and see. icon_idea.gif

Mass Effect 3 is pretty horrible as a whole for me. The single player is too short and too grindy in the side quests. The forced but boring multiplayer. Stupid EMS system. Boring characters and little conversation choices. The whole game feels so dumbed down.

Feels like Mass Effect 3 is made for everyone, including those trigger happy MP only people, but they have compromised the single player's quality at the same time.

I think this is my official ending. The fan made ending is far far better than original.
Nice. nod.gif

Off-topic:

I picked up Dragon Age: Origins again after almost two years, and I still get a lot of surprises from time to time, things I never saw in my first playthrough (I was very thorough).

In first playthrough, I played as a female warden. Although the game did end on a happy note, there were a few regrets.
I never bedded any of my companions. Alistair rejected my love after I forced him to be king against his own will in the landsmeet, afterwhich he became a wandering drunkard and Anora became queen, was forced to kill Zevran after he betrayed me and basically a lot of this and that which didn't work out to my plan because of low coercion/cunning.



Right now, I am playing a male warden, and I am loving it. I am in a relationship with Morrigan, Leliana and Zevran, have bedded the first two (I wouldn't want to bed Zevran even if I had the option to) and I really hope to make Alistair king in the landsmeet soon...

... after listening to Queen Anora's cringeworthy BE-FORE USS speech, Alistair seems to be the better choice

Alistair is just too cool to be king. thumbup.gif

Sigh...

Dragon Age: Origins was probably, the last masterpiece from Bioware, to date cry.gif

Thats one of my problems with ME3. Even the failure, DA2 have a fair amount of conversation choices than ME3, despite the characters are not as interesting. ME3, on the other hand, it's even worse as the game feels like a call of duty campaign. With a terrible MP stuck to it. I have no idea whats Bioware smoking. Seriously, you do not need multiplayer to make a memorable game.

I am not expecting much, other than, a good story to wrap up a trilogy. Instead, i get this clustercrap that doesnt make sense at all.

Apparently, the terrible ending happened because Casey Hudson and the lead writer wrote the ending in secrecy, without any input from other writers from the team. The other writers pretty much stopped contributing after the saying goodbyes to each members, and the story goes down hill after that. Apparently, the team writers arent happy with the ending too, but forced to keep quiet about it.

If Elder Scrolls end up with a multiplayer game or MMO, i'll rage too. Why is well made single player games getting lesser? Or they are just assuming everyone has stable internet connection to play multiplayer these days.
Less conversation choices means less attachment to the crew, which was an important part of a Bioware game, where they usually feature interesting and well developed characters. Witcher is also another game with much heavier consequences, did they gib the conservations?

I dont even care about James Vega even after finishing the game because he talked so little in the game, compared to any characters in other 2 Mass Effect games. Seriously, why is James Vega in the game too? He is as generic as Soap or Dusty or Miller from any modern shooters. Change him to another angry Krogan or a Batarian is far better than a generic human.

Wings of Liberty was a very good game. Didn't really mind they broke the game into 3 expansions.
Wings of Liberty > Heart of the Swarm > Legacy of the Void

Terran + Protoss + Zerg = Organics
Xel'naga = Reapers

I hope they have an EPIC space battle like ME3 at the end of legacy of the void biggrin.gif

what do u mean not working?
Wasteland 2 collected over 1.5M dollars in funding already backed by so many major industry icons...

in case u dunno, wasteland was the main inspiration between games like the fallout series...

the start of kickstarter basically means the end for the need of a publisher thus giving the developers full control over the game...

A triple AAA game costs millions of dollars to produce. Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty costed USD 100 million to produce.

Yeah, there is no Mass Effect without mass relays. The whole game is centered around eezo tech, which became the basis for mass relays, weaponry, biotics etc.

Well, it's time to say goodbye to the Mass Effect series. It's been a good 5 years cry.gif

Everyone can agree that Mass Effect was great all the way. But BioWare failed to turn it into a masterpiece in the end. Aiseh.
Right now, playing the Witcher. In the first chapter already got super tough decision aiyoh. Everyone is wrong, but who is less wrong? FFffff-

I prefer being neutral, I really do not like taking sides. Until Bioware pulls shit like this..
