heard horror stories and memes about the third game's endingshould i dive into this series since i've never played it before
>>719549251Just treat the first game as standalone and ignore the sequels
>>719549251You can still have a good time with the series, just be aware that by the 3rd game only the really big choices will have actually mattered if you port your save over to it.
>>719549251Yea all 3 are fun games>but muh endingdont listen to these tards
>>719549251Just treat the third game as standalone and ignore the prior games.
>>719549251Just turn you brain off when you almost reach at the ending just like I did with the Dexter series
The only problem is they had no idea how to conclude game 2 and game 3 at the end of game 3 so the game plays perfectly until you get to the final fight which was supposed to be reliant on all your choices but instead was a rushed nonsensical linear ending Basically people that played mass effect were 10 times smarter than the people that played bg3
>>719549251It really doesn't matter if you want to get into itThis series, more than any other in gaming, show that the journey is much important than the destination
>>7195492513 is fine, it's not as good as 1 or 2 but it's still fineJust the ending is fucked if you weren't paying attention all 3 games to war assets
>>719550698Don't forget the "leak" that happened that had the implication that the Reapers show up every so often to stop the various Mass Relay using civilizations from destroying large portions of the galaxy using technology that causes stars to burn out faster than normal. That little plotline from Tali's recruitment mission gets dropped and never comes up ever again.
>>719549251Just treat the second game as a standalone and ignore the first and last installment.
I played these games last year for the first time, the ending is rushed and sucks ass but if you played/watched any modern media with a bad ending you know what to expect. The third game still had good main and side quests before the ending. The most disappointing thing about the whole triology honestly for me was not the ending but how the gameplay got severely dumbed down from 1 to 2.
They're all loxist propaganda but the first two games are still fun to play.
>>719549251Just treat Paragon Lost as standalone and forget about the games.
>>719549251First one is kino. 2 is meh, 3 is fucking terrible >Mass Effect 1 - Game Of Thrones Season 1 - 4>Mass Effect 2 - Game Of Thrones Season 5 - 7>Mass Effect 3 - Game Of Thrones Season 8I'd personally recommend just skipping the series
ME1 for a good story. ME2 for multiplayer if the servers are still running. ME3 for cancer.
>>719552109>ME2>MultiplayerInteresting bait, anon. ME2 had no multiplayer, you're thinking of ME3.
I am currently in the middle of playing through 3. Yeah, I'd recommend playing them, I had a fun time overall. 3 actually improves on some things (from 2) as well, it doesn't seem as bad as i've read.Unrelated but really interested just how bad is the ending going to be, because everyone just seems mortified by it. Comments read like its the AOT ending of ME.
>>719552167I have no idea why I thought it was ME2 that had the multiplayer.
>>719549251all suck, complete 5/10s, first maybe a 7/10 in some regardsonly xbox360oomers, and /r/space-tards will tell you otherwise. also zoomerfags because everything is a 10/10 to them since they are automatons and only played fotmslop and like 5 other games
>>719551073that was Karpyshyn's plotline. Mac the Hack and Casey Hudson couldn't have an actually good writer on the game, it'd interfere with their Deus Ex fetish
>>7195492513 is shit across the board. The gunplay is slightly better than 2, but it's just an awful game from start to finish.I'd say play it once, but fuck it's terrible.
>>719549251It’s definitely worth a shot if you are interested. The Legendary Edition goes on sale for like $5 regularly.As someone who has played through the trilogy at least 12 times, I feel >>719549895The first one is really good. To me anymore after that you can just feel the moment EA bought the studio
>>719549251ME2 is considered among the best games of all time.ME1 is an early, but promising entry of the X360 era. It has some drawbacks, but if you can get past them, it's a great game.ME3 ends the franchise, for better or worse, and it's regarded as doing that. Most people didn't like that.
We'll bang, okay?
