Is Ass effect worth playing current day for a zoomer that never played them before? I just got the legendary edition from a nice anon on the steam gift thread
didn't they censor all the ass shots in the legendary edition?
Asari are uglyQuarians are hot
>>729326797It's an experience. It's a space opera in the traditional sense of the term. Meaning, it's sort of sloppy. It's a good space opera though.If you have it, I'd say it's worth playing.
>>729326797I played the legendary for the first time a couple of months ago. It was pretty good. It's a big payoff series so a lot of the draw is seeing how your decisions over all 3 games shape the galaxy. It's also great to take the same Shepard over 3 games. There are some fun things about that, like how sometimes someone you spared in ME1 will be back to get revenge on you if you make certain choices. My overall impressions: ME1 was mostly consistent highs, ME2 was mediocre but had one of the best ending missions in gaming, and ME3 had some high highs and some really fucking low lowsThat said the games are too easy unless you play on higher difficulties, but some sections are downright unfair on them so it's kinda weird. Also the planet exploration in the first game is really bad but it's also largely ignorable
>>729327608I'd just stick to a "too easy" difficulty for ME.How I see it is that it's easy, but you're not really gaining anything by giving yourself a challenge with these mechanics.
>>729326797Yes but each game is worse than the last and the ending to the trilogy is catastrophically bad.
>>729327868I played ME3 on insanity after playing the first two on normal and it was honestly refreshing. But like I said some sections are total garbage: every single banshee encounter was awful, especially the last mission where if you take too long you can get swarmed by like 4 at a timeI went back and tried ME1 on the highest difficulty and it was just not fun. The assassination snipers especially are really annoying, but some encounters like the ambush in the lab are weirdly deadly
>>729328084I forgot to mention the citadel DLC. That shit on insanity genuinely enraged me. The pistol you start with has limited ammo, it weighs a fuckton for some reason so it increases your cooldowns, and if you don't stealth through the first few missions you just get swarmed by mobs and die in 2 seconds. The final mission was absolutely awful. The boss randomly regens his shields and armour at certain HP thresholds so he can just shotgun bumrush you with impunity while your squad just stands there watching and there's little you csn do about it. Truly awful. And all that for dialogue and narrative straight out of Joss Whedon. The tonal whiplash was horrible
>>729328084>I played ME3 on insanity after playing the first two on normal and it was honestly refreshing.That might just be ME3 mechanics in general. The reason I say what I say is that I honestly wouldn't recommend anyone go into ME looking for a challenge in the game. Not with these mechanics.I'm sure you had a great time. That's good for you.
>>729326797Finished the the trilogy a couple of days ago and yes it's very worth it. Probably the best RPG ever in the role playing sense at least.Get the LE edition and mod it using this im glad i didn't play vanilla. (especially 3)https://www.nexusmods.com/masseffectlegendaryedition/mods/1127
Mass Effect 1&2 are still worth playing. The series is the representation of a dream that had been forming since the earliest days of space opera: the cool human male and his alien friends (and gf) adventuring throughout the galaxy. The games could often be crude and inarticulate but I will never fault what they tried to accomplish. In the many years since ME3 shat the bed nobody else has even tried, except maybe Rogue Trader.
>>729328927Fuck off. They were completely mediocre, and represented the death of the cRPG by making everything mediocre, while trying to appeal to the lowest common denominator.
>>729329052>death of the cRPGThat's a good thing
>>729326797
>>729326797Come get your Prothean artifact, girl.
What was his name again?
>>729329439I'm not looking it up or memeing.Is that Jacob? Did I get it right?
>>729329503 (me)Okay, that wasn't Jacob. I can't name him then.
>>729329503Jacob's a nigger, that's a spic.
>>729329661Is it Lt. Hernandez then?
>>729329439Surprisingly Good Character
>Jacob>Jacub>Jakub>YakubIt all makes sense now
>>729327010Only a few of the more egregious ones, desu. There isn't very much cut content in that regard, so you can look it up on youtube if you really care. I get the principle of it, but really, who gives a fuck anymore? He got the game for free, anyway.>>729326797I think 1 and 2 are worth playing, but 3 drags and is a pretty lame conclusion, even with the updates to the endings everyone hated the first time. I never bothered finishing it personally, and you can just assume the good guys win because they always do in these situations.
>>729329439I loved James. His banter was top tier. Especially with Garrus. The "Loco" nickname he gives you is a bit cringe but latinx men do be like that.
>>729326797BY THE GODESS
>>729329439Probably the most chad character in the game, desu. He fucks femshep and then tells her to fuck off.
>>729330061kek
>>729329439Large McHuge
>>729326797Yes but if you do play, make sure to download the Happy Ending mod for ME3. >Complete ME3 ending with mod>Mod allows you to fly around after with ending technically complete>You play until you are ready to put the game down.>When ready, do the Evil Clone side quest (not plot essential, more of a gag). >This is the true way to leave the series.>Never look back.
what was his problem?
>>729327010They lifted the camera in 2 instances where the camera was literally zoomed into Miranda's ass during a serious emotional conversation.
>>729330301He was having visions of ME3.
>>729327010Funnily enough there’s a mod that adds back the ass shots made by the same guy who created a mod for the original that removed the ass shots.
I like that one where Liara drinks something and she becomes a giant futa and rapes fem shep
>>729326797Bullying asari by making them get accidentaly pregnant from tiny male bugs I've hidden inside their pantiesSeriously someone do that
Legendary is such a fucking nigger tier remaster. They never fixed the game logic being tied to 30 fps so going above it will break the games more and more the higher you go but they made sure to put in as much manpower as possible into fucking the lighting up and turning a noir-like harshly lit aesthetic into something that looks like it takes place in dentists office.
>liar# OP>futa faggotry guaranteed did blue became this rallying call of a color for homos?
>>729330668Satanist like to color code their demoralization propaganda
>>729326797Sure, here is the official companion tier list so you know who to pick
I really wanted to fuck Aria
>>729330770>spic in C and not DI'm surprised people can even remember his name.>ugly butch bitch in C too and not DOne thing I can give Ashley is that they made her look better in 3.
>>729330232You got it wrong, Femshep literally raped him.
>>729329439Flint IronStag
>>729331129>liking Ashleys retarded redesign in 3This has to be bait
>>729331268Yeah, that granny hair bun in ME1-2 is fucking ugly. You have shit taste.
>>729331380You're literally the kind of faggot retard we used to make fun of here a decade ago haha.
>>729331129You sound very mentally unwell. Must be because it's Christmas and you're jewish or Muslim sadly....
>>729326797I'm blue dabadi dabada
>>729329180Post full.
Rubbing your hands on an Asari's ass that feels like a basketball as she's lying on top of you must be the best feeling in the world, bros..
>>729326797what does her blue skin smell like?
>>729331536she has a....you know....a uhh....
Renegade femshep is made for big asari cock.
where's the futa cock and balls
>>729331605Yes?
Trashly = badsecond guessed my orders in the first game, always mouths offcalls me a traitor in second game calls me a traitor AGAIN in the third game tries to shoot me in the third game because literal career politician told her soasks permission to come aboard after all thisunhinged cunt
>>729331463>we>literal feminine group-think argumentsYou're an effiminate faggot pussy bitch, we get it.>>729331478There is literally nothing off about that post unless you're a butthurt wetback
how did I know the kaidan fags would be here before I clicked the thread
>>7293267971 > 2 > 3LE is garbageLiara is boring as fuckThat's all I gotta say
>>729326797Yes but be forewarned, each game goes off on its own little journey and what you liked about the previous game might be completely gone the next, and not in a particularly good way most of the time.
buy the trilogy on steam, they're not expensive.don't make your first playthrough on an an objectively inferior remaster
2 and 3 aren't even RPGs. It's Gears of War with numbers going up.
>>729332098>I'll play the worst gameplay version of this GAME because I'm autistic and a few scenes trigger me and I'm sadly too dumb to mod the new version ti fix itKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK WHAT A RETARD
>>729332245The original has better gameplay.
>>729332245https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crcLMRj4wcIhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6OLdpIp4D9shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rochX67RuA>worst gameplayis the LE
The Remaster is better in everything except visuals, but it really doesn't matter since you can mod it with TweaksModManager
>>729332426That new Kelly is such an abomination.
>>729332098Don't mods fix most of the LE problems like the lighting?
>>729326797>mfw after eating that ass like it's my last meal on death row
>>729332426Poor poor jeet bot still spamming all ME threads...
>>729332494Mods have literally fixed everything at this point and you can add in ME1 locations too, make it more like a continuation of 1
>>729332494Ranjeet has been doing this in all ME threads for yearsHe got mindbroke by a certain post and he never recovered
>>729332494They completely ripped out the dynamic lighting of the trilogy. MELLO is a fan mod but far from a restoration. The games were built on inferior ps3 ports of the trilogy
>>729332474How? It still has game logic tied to framerate, stutters more and has worse lighting.
>>729332292>better gameplayin what way? The only thing I noticed was difficulty difference (LE is easier) LE has the advantage of having easier modding,m>1mod to save both chuckle fucks at Virmire, various graphical tweaks>2Hybrid weapon system, both heat and conventional magazine fed guns, new powers, minor restored content>3new content in form of new mission, text adventures, new powers (some from multiplayer), removed retarded grind for weapon marks, ship has better customization
>>729330770Ashley gets disrespected too much and I'm tired of it. She's literally the most based human other than shep. Fuck aliens.
kelly chambers died in her collector chamber
>>729332967People hate her because she grounded and doesn't easily trust xenos or baddies
>>729332967Gonna kill her again on my new playthrough
>>729332967>calls you traitor, draws gun on you after saving her assthat's it, she is sleeping in the airlock next to jamaican
>>729332592>>729332654who the fuck you callin jeetJeets are the ones who programmed the remaster
>>729331847who's that? she kind of looks like that chick that died on virmire but w/ longer hair
>>729333184Whatever you say Ranjeet
>>729333182I mean, you're literally rebuilt with cybernetics by the space KKK. I wouldn't trust me either.
>>7293331823 isn't canon.
>>729333184If we ignore how much of a sperg you are, you have a point here. The shaders were really broken at some places. Fixing them fixed a handful of scenes and ruined the feel of many other scenes.
>>729333182Nigga she catches shep, who she thought was dead and doesnt know what the fuck he is, working with a group you spent a chunk of the first game fighting for being terrorists, so yeah, seems like a logical reaction to me.
>>729333315My name is Dave>>729333348they were never fixed
>>729329439Nacho Varga
>>729333434Come on Ranjeet post the rest of it so you can move on to shit on the next thread
>>729333434you're a double dave niggerI don't like how it looks like she's holding a candle under her face in the first top left image btw
>>729333328funny how other girls have zero problem with that and will happily jump your bones>>729333403so how come Garrus, Tali Dr. Chakwas, the engineers don't mind, fuck even Anderson still trusts youTRASHLY
>>729333434That's just the faces having weird interaction with surface normals for the angle of light. It's an issue that's fixable with shaders, but those shaders are improved.
>>729332051I hate that this turbo whore aesthetic does something to me primally...
>>729329439Blast Hardcheese>>729333564Is ranjeet your step-dad's name or something? Oddly specific >>729333590So? Does original intent not matter to you faggots?>>729333624they also fucked up the facial and eye animations
>>729333616Because they're all different characters with different personalities. Ashley is a grounded traditionalist.
uh did the mods not notice the visible vagina in the OP image?
>>729333434>POV: you
>>729333751I think the problem here is that the original opted for dynamic light sources, and they just removed them in favor of specular lighting. I feel like they didn't understand what was going on in the original game.
>>729333805And that's a good thing
>>729332051Can't find this one, artist?
>>729333805>>729333893Wish there were more like it
>>729330824any mods for this and EDI btw?
>>729333869What is this, a video for ants?>>729333872https://youtu.be/dCBpldUb8n0?t=148they did something to the animations as well. Watch the three conversations as they play out, notice the lack of proper eye animations
>>729333616Garrus had already gone rogue. Chakwas is just a doctor, so her feelings are probably set aside in favor of a more diplomatic approach since doctors are generally non-judgemental. Dont remember who or what you mean by engineers. Anderson undoubtedly trusts shepard no matter what since they go way back and have a longterm relationship that transcends the game. He has put more faith in shep than anyone.As for ashley, and like i said, she knows shep is dead, and whatever she sees in front of her could easily be some bullshit trick by cereberus, which was already established in the first game as having done illegal biomedical research and experimentation.
>>729333751The original has flaws and the lighting in the original from what you're showing me isn't my cup of tea either. Shepard looks best on the right here but anderson looks best on the left.
>>729333751Right looks way better though
>>729334030My take is that the shaders are "better," but they fucked with the light sources and opted for ambient light. It looks good in outside scenes but it completely fucks with the intent of the inside scenes.
>no futa catboxes/v/ REALLY HAS fallen, and on Christmas too...
>>729334084>>729334105sounds like the call was coming from inside the house with respect to the pajeet thing>>729334138They broke reflections and you can't even shoot the water anymore.
>>729334289Right looks way better
>>729334339Yes I'm aware you have no internal monologue, you've specified that already
>>729334030>POV: you
>>729326797Honestly I replayed them all recently and If I were you I'd probably just play ME2 and leave it there.Unless of course you fall in love with the series. Just be prepared for the other 2 to be pretty ass compared to 2.
>>729334469I wish 2 had 3's combat
>>729334289 How many do you have of these in a folder? you boot up both versions and time screencap it exactly right? Imagine wasting your life away over something trivial like shaders
>>729334289Why are you lying Ranjeet? Imagie how brown you have to be to do this for years
>>729334339I don't think so. It's just ambient lighting so you can see colors more clearly. Being well-lit is inappropriate if left was the original vision.
>>729334401what is this, a video for ants?
>>729334534He's just lying for attention, that's the little jeets whole life
>>729334551who the fuck is ranjeet? Vivek ass niggaits PAjeet
>>729334534just over a dozen?Wasting my life? It took me 2 hours back in 2021>>729334551They must've added that back in, going off the modded gun I'm guessing you have the community mod installed, which is a fan bug fix.>>729334653No I'm trying to dissuade potential consumers from EA's pajeet oriented marketing practicesnot another dollar needs to go their waySorry if it takes me a minute to respond btw, making turkey
There isn't a single piece of media that has done justice for space exploration.
>>729335254>jeet meltdown because mods easily fix the gameGo back to cooking your curry Ranjeet
>>729335254just for men pressley is funny
>points out shitty remaster>BENCHOD YOU DELETE THAT IMAGE RIGHT NOW SAAR
>>729334930nta but you are an actual retard newfaggot.
>>729335516https://youtu.be/lW8BEAyC9lU?t=227fix this yet? Also this ironically jeet produce disaster is one of the first games to use AI upscaling
>>729335548You really need to stop lying and coping Ranjeet....
>expect porn thread>get remaster schizo who's still seething about a shitty remaster from 2 years agogrim
Giving Tali a sensual foot massage
>>729335254This example is really good. Fucking with the light sources was the wrong call. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt is if they lost the light sources somehow, or if the textures were baked. If it's baked textures, they were between a rock and a hard place.
>You really need to stop lying and coping Ranjeet....Lol esl is mad
>>729335631Sadly the jeet has no life....
>>729335630EA won't rehire you saar, the game is already released
>>729335631Make like a tranny and jerk off faggot
>>729335805>best insult he can think of is n-no youPoor poor little Ranjeet. Is your curry finished yet?
>faggots itt unironically defending yet another 'remaster' disasterlmao no one is buying your scam EA
>>729335924nigger the remaster is $6 right now
>>729333910SupernovaX
>>729335924Poor poor Ranjeet is living in his own little world.Everyone buys the LE, the modding is more alive in LE, the games are better in LE
>>729335997I got it last year when it was 3 dollars
>>729335719they didn't lose light sources, they rebuilt the whole thing in their brown, infected imageit's literally an incomplete remaster by way of not having Pinnacle Station or ME3's multiplayer components. Also the Cerberus adverts on the terminal in ME2, which were the last contributions to the lore by Le'ToileEven if they hadn't butchered the combat ai in 1 and 2 and removed the melee combos from 3 you're talking about an inferior, incomplete experience. The lighting and broken animations is a fuckin visual metaphor I use to tell the story of Lejeetendary Edition
>145 replies>no catbox linkswhat the fuck is happening
This is the one time a remaster isn't that bad.
>>729335997even 0.0000001 eurocents are too much for EA, shill
>>729336186>Even if they hadn't butchered the combat ai in 1 and 2Poor poor Ranjeet jist keeps on lying
>>729336231fuck off
>>729335997So you're just out and out a literal EA shill eh?What do you think it means that the originals cost more than the demaster?
>>729336308I posted videos showing it right here in this thread...Burden of proof is on you
>>729336419The only thing you have shown so far is that you're a lying jeet sadly
>>729327397Are space operas still popular as genre? I hate how everything is deconstruction these days, just play the tropes straight damn it.
>>729336478>More pilpulI hate this turn of phrase but I accept your concession
>>729336354It means that nobody buys them my small brown friend
>>729326797Is it worth playing? Yes. Go in, though, knowing ME1 is more of slow and admittedly clunky classic space opera RPG with stats and an inventory to manage. 2 and 3 are more oriented around action and becoming a third-person shooter, dumping most of the RPG aspects in favor of more cinematic setpieces and character development.I tire of Asari r34, and futa in particular.
>>729336598It means EA makes more money if you buy their pos demasterthey make nothing if you play og ME on steam for example
>>729336716Why would i play the dogshit og version when i can pirate the superior LE?
I'm a Jackchad
>>729336789based now make her a mother of five
where are the futa pics?
>>729336789I'd choose her if she had any fucking content in ME3.
>>729336789This reminded me to forget about her and her dumbasss diversity class in 3 during my next playthrough.
>>729336789She fucking died in 3 for me because I didn't go to the academy fast enough
>>729329439I am disappointed in myself that I can't find the wallpaper with all his stupid names, but I guess it's been like 13 years. Fuck me.
>>729336231Yeah that's what I was wondering. I guess this garnered such conversation that such things were ignored. It's a Christmas miracle for the ME fans! >>729336025Thanks pal! Merry Christmas
>>729336789I should replay ME and do her quests.
It baffles me to this day that the tranny dyke from ME2 has such a dedicated following with that repugnant man face and bald head. What was his/her name again? Jimmy?
>>729338360>manface>literally the most attractive face out of all the women in the seriesJust say you're gay

>>729336186Sorry, my wife wanted to have sex. I appreciate the examples, they illustrate your point very well. It's really unfortunate they disregarded the original intent completely and thought they could do a better job. As I said, I think it still works really well in exterior environments, but it's really shitty inside ships. I think one visit inside a frigate at night would've let them understand what's wrong. It goes to show, you really need to understand what things look like in real life to make art.
>>729339187I took a break from saving the universe to help her get Omega back. Least she can do is give me some coochie.
>>729339491She'll let you worship her feet, take it or leave it

The only character more insufferable than him is Jacob.

>>729336508Not really?>deconstructionYou have to remember, the "opera" part of these genres used to mean the same as "slop." When you see "horse opera" it's "cowboy slop." When you see "soap opera" it means "domestic drama slop." When you see "space opera" it means "space slop."
