The Mass Effect series is arguably the greatest trilogy in gaming.
Despite it's age you should still play it today, and here's why.

Playing with one character through the entire trilogy is a experience every gamer needs to have.
Agreed.
That and having a whole series being completed within one console life cycle.
It's crazy to think we had 3 Mass Effect games on the PS3 and XBOX 360.
@@lufromhades96because of that we had Me3 be rushed and you can make arguments the first 2 games were also rushed
@LJAndrews1986 Fair chat, can’t knock you there. I’d have happily waited if it meant BioWare could have stuck the landing in the end of ME3.
I’ve seen trailers of the next Mass Effect game that is in the works, are you optimistic or are you going to adopt the “I’ll have to see it to believe it” approach?
For me I think it’ll be cool to explore the world once again, and see new things, but given BioWare’s recent form, I just can’t believe they will be able to recapture the magic.
I completely agree
I have never been more emotionally invested in a game, show, movie, or book than I was with Mass Effect.
Same fam, same 😭😭😭
Man the Mass Effect Legendary Edition is the best deal since the Master Chief Collection. So worth it for anyone who has never played.
Factos sir,
Factos
@@lufromhades96 great video my friend and you’ve earned a new sub. Mass Effect is one my favorite stories of all time.
You have great taste mate.
Thanks for the support🙏.
Bro, I got the legendary edition for £4.99 in the steam sale. I couldn't agree more. But it's also run by EA and the launcher is poop on my steam deck 😭😭😭
@@Pidgen56 I feel you mate.
The EA launcher is such a pain.
Haven't really looked into it, but there's gotta be a way to bypass it.
I played this series for the first time this year and finished it a few months ago. I keep thinking about it.
I think they hit on an amazing formula. 1. Deep world building 2. Meaningful choices. 3. Character development 4. Relationship building. 5. Engaging story. If any game series did this, it too would have a shot of "best game/series of all time."
Writers.... start your engines....
Mass Effect is one of a kind in my books.
There are many games with phenomenal stories,
but Mass Effect still stands as the best.
I've never played a game where I genuinely cared for so many characters.
I mean name a better bromance than Shepard and Garrus.
"I might do more than just catch you kelly!"
I will never love a franchise as much as this one.
Same. No knock on current games, but I can't see any game coming close to this.
I was a latecomer to the trilogy, I didn't experience it until the legendary edition came out. That said, I agree with you on every point. I got so emotional during this game, that in itself was a new experience to me. I had to remove my glasses at the end while saying goodbye to everyone because I was bawling like a baby. Such a great game/experience. I've logged several play throughs now and I'm always finding new things that I missed and new dialog. Whether you play as a renegade or a paragon this game is epic.
Glad you eventually found this gem.
I'm actually surprised to see how many people feel this way.
Good to see I'm not the only one who was tearing up.
It may be strange, but for me I always cry when you shake jokers hand before going back to earth in ME3.
It just hits so hard.
I think what really sets this trilogy apart is that the characters become real to you. There are many games with excellent characters but I have never played another game where I genuinely think of the characters as my friends. It feels strange saying this in a way but its the truth and these characters live with you long after the credits roll.
My dude, you are so right.
I've never seen a game where I grew so attached to so many characters,
usually it's like one or two per game at best.
Bro what, I was watching this and I assumed you where a popular RUclipsr but when I looked at the views and subs I was astonished you where a small RUclipsr. This video is something I’d see on an already developed 100k sub channel. Good work man!
Thanks mate,
Your kind words mean a lot.
Thanks for joining the journey.
Hopefully one day I’ll reach that 100K sub mark.
Seconded! I’m subscribing.
@@ridesq Thank you so much man.
Really appreciate it.
@@lufromhades96 we'll get you there mate. You've got yourself a new sub here mate.
I was thinking the exact same thing. really well produced video! @lufromhades96 another new sub here :)
You gave me shivers while watching this. Thank you for shining a little more light on this forgotten legendary series. More people need to experience the greatness of this series and understand that a great game doesn't need to have great combat or graphics or even multiplayer, it just needs to have a great story, one everyone loves, from the OG to Andromeda they all had great stories, and I hope that we will be again able to see the magic of this series in Mass Effect 5.
Bravo sir, Bravo.
Truer words have never been spoken.
And thank you for the support, means alot.
Click video, hear music, instant nostalgia.
Gonna start a play through next week I think, thanks for the video dude.
Glad to hear it mate.
Honestly whenever I hear those tunes I just get the feels 🥲
Production quality lowkey crazy nice job bro
Thanks mate, really appreciate it.
Put alot of work in this one.
Only real disappointment is that I feel I could have done better on the audio quality.
That's for the next video though.
Just started the legendary trilogy 3 weeks ago. Never played before, havent played a game this good in awhile.
Which game are you on?
If still on ME2, here's a pro tip to help minimize crew deaths.
Only collect the reaper IFF once you have done like all of the availible loyalty missions at that time.
You will thank me later
😁
I am jealous.
Imagine playing it for the 1st time again...
What a absolute spoiler of a comment. Just lost a sub. Let the player experience it blind. Can't believe you did that man , what a clown
Awesome! Don't rush things. Take your time to do side quests. There comes a point of no return and if you haven't done everything you had to do, you will regret it.
The multiplayer (not available in LE, but still active in original ME3) is a master class in horde shooters as well. They obviously made it in a rush, but the enemies from the core game are so. perfectly. designed. that they translate right over to MP and make gameplay consistently exciting.
Underrated comment sir.
Couldn't agree more.
That horde mode was funnily enough my first online experience.
Though one thing I'm kinda happy about was getting rid of galactic readniness.
I like the original MP but I’m still kinda glad it’s not in LE cause they wouldn’t have fixed the war assets if it was included
Just played through it for the first time about a month ago. Amazing. Can’t believe it took me til now to play it.
I envy you man.
I wish I could play it again for the first time.
I finished Mass Effect 3 two days ago. I feel hollow but also grateful that I was alive to experience this masterpiece of a trilogy. Those who haven't played this trilogy, drop everything you're playing and jump into a 100 hour journey. The wait for the next Mass Effect game is going to restless!
Couldn't agree more friend.
The trilogy is a timeless classic.
This is one of the best cultural experiences in my life regardless of category: book, movie, tv series, music, graphic novel, video game.
Mass Effect Trilogy is simply phenomenal.
Same for me dude...
Same for me.
💖
I started mass effect legendary edition recently, never been able to get into rpg's. Ive gotten to ME2 and reunited with Garrus and rescued Jack. Really enjoying the writing and the gameplay feels pretty good too. Glad I discovered this.
Glad you found it to.
More people need to play it.
Quick warning though, please!!!!!! don't collect the reaper IFF until you have completed all other availible side missions (arrival DLC excluded).
You will thank me later.
My FemShep & Garrus are BFF. 💯
Almost 2 weeks in and already above 75hrs. The best and probably the only game of its kind. Loving it!
Amen brother, amen
I got Legendary Edition at launch & I just passed 800 hours lol. Easily the most I’ve ever had on a game
@@anthonytitone Mad fam, you definitely got more hours in than me.
Did you by any chance do a full on renegade playthrough?
Given your hours, I suspect you have.
I've never had the guts to do it personally, when I tried.
@@lufromhades96 ya I struggled to get through a renegade play through for a while until I came up with a fun concept. Instead of playing a badass renegade I decided to be an incompetent renegade who’s always unreasonably angry, stupid & xenophobic. All the squadmates who could possibly die did, Shepard never found love & he chose the secret refuse ending cause he decided that this cycle isn’t ready for the harvest to end (even tho it’s mostly his fault.) I came up with the idea from choices like telling the biotic god to charge to his death & threatening citadel store owners in ME2😂. Imo renegade is boring when playing it seriously because ur not making choices that speak to what u would actually want but a funny renegade is engaging.
@anthonytitone That’s an interesting approach. Don’t think I could do it still, my fragile little heart couldn’t bear to do it 😂. I love all the characters too much… except for Jacob, Ashley and Kaiden. Expect a character ranking video soon 🤔.
Not just the greatest trilogy but the best Sci-Fi made of any media, its that good.
I back this.
Couldn't agree with you more friend.
Been playing the series w my teenagers- He loved me1, but then he played Me2 and is currently doing the loyalty missions of the crew so he can get 100% survival on the last assault on the collectors- he is blown away by the actual rpg elements involved w multiple play through by choosing paragon vs Renegade options in speech checks- So freaking good!
Great to see youngsters appreciating this series.
You are doing the lords work my friend.
It's a shame there aren't more games like this.
A really cool aspect is how humans have only know the galactic community for 30 years. Whereas some of the other species have known of it when humans were in the bronze age.
Agreed.
I think it kinda helps with the world building,
as things are explained cause humanity is still a new player on the scene.
Story, charwdevelopment and execution. The perfect formula the ME trilogy managed to convey which makes the trilogy the GOAT
Truer words have never been spoken
"If you know, you know." Yes, I know. ❤
Glad I'm not alone 💖
I mean, there's little excuse at this point unless it's completely not your thing or not your genre. I've seen this collection sold for a single-digit price point in Steam sales. The value there is incredible.
Couldn't agree with you more my friend
I am currently on my second playthrough of the Legendary Edition. I never got to finish the OG release on Xbox 360 and PS3, and it bothered me. I made it to Mass Effect 3 and sort of fell off after that. Then the Legendary Edition was announced while I was going through a very rough time in my life.
I didn’t care that things were bad, and that I was struggling. I told myself I needed to make sure I had this game when it came out. I remember 2008 me playing this game during summer vacation, mad because I couldn’t get online to play Halo 3 or Soul Calibur IV. No online play, no PVP due to our modem malfunctioning. A week of no internet. But I had this game that I originally hated because I was used to action straight away. And then I played this, forced myself to actually listen instead of shutting the game down to go do another Team Deathmatch…and became hooked. This was the first time I played a game for the story, and it’s all I really like to do now. It’s peaceful.
I’m procrastinating finishing the series a second time and getting my last Insanity trophy. I’m not ready to end this Shepard’s story, even though I’ll be back with a brand new one after a couple weeks. This game, man.
Loved this comment.
Thanks for sharing friend.
I stuimbled onto this franchise by accident.
Friend lent me ME2 in 2011 (We traded games).
It had been sitting on my shelf for months, before finally opting to play it after getting dumped by my GF at the time.
I immediately got hooked, and couldn't believe I'd never played any game from this series till now.
Never moved on from a broken heart so quick.
It's so great to see so many fans sharing their love of the series.
Thanks for sharing and the support my friend.
Hope things have improved in your since your first playthrough.
I mean the endings to Mass Effect is perfect though. Because as much as we’d love to see Shepard continue his/her death is so much more impactful than him/her not dying. It’s supposed to bring your emotions out.
I have no idea what the next Mass Effect will be, but if we for instance get to see every team members who survived through your trilogy saves reunite and reminisce about Shepard that would definitely bring back some strong emotions for the new game. The journey of emotions is what truly carries these games. Ngl just writing this made me a bit emotional.
Your passion is felt.
I was getting a little emotional just reading your comment.
I agree the current endings are given a tad too much hate, but I wouldn't call it perfect.
I feel like there are a few things that could have improved the packaging of the endings.
Seeing Shepards crew and just the galaxy as a whole honouring Shepard after his death would be amazing.
I actually read a bit of fanfiction that did just that.
Yah it would be beautiful to see.
I've been trying to tell this to as many people as I can since the Legendary Edition was first announced!
Keep spreading the gospel.
I'll be doing the same.
My colleague is actually going to give the game a try thanks to this video I think 😂
Aside from giving ME1 the short end of the stick, I fully agree.
I'll grant that I'm perhaps a little too harsh on ME1.
I think it's cause the experience feels the most dated.
Still highly recommend it to those aiming to get the full experience.
Thanks to having near all dlcs ME3 offers some fun builds. Like the Electro trooper: engineer with the reegar and a build around shock cc (overload and drone). I could even run in the face of some reaper rachnis to melt them (the flamethrower turret also helps with close combat)
I personally never really got that into the combat.
I thought it was fun, but never tried to beat it on insanity and go hard on all the different builds.
You rate I give it a try one these days?
Bringing in the soundtrack 2/3s the way in? Chef's kiss.
Thanks for the appreciation.
Glad the effect I was going for was acheived.
I'm Commander Shepard and this is my favorite video on RUclips
Absolutely love this comment 💖.
Thanks you for the support.
Just finished all 3 games in this year once again... My tears are unstoppable... Please give me a chance to reastart my life with no memory of this best game to start Sheppard adventures once again... Tali Zora Vas Normandy is the best girl ever seen)))
same here bro, I wish I could replay this game for the first time all over again.
Still love doing another replay everynow and then, but nothing beats the first playthrough.
@@lufromhades96 Yeah...still waiting news about 5-th part, mby it wont be like dragon age 4
0:44 That statement there is why I feel people are unfair to Andromeda, as it's a decent game, it's just not on par with an ENTIRE EPIC TRIOLOGY, it can't even compare.
Great take.
Andromeda is like a 7 /10.
I thought the gameplay was great and they created an interesting enough world where I wanted to learn.
My main criticism, is that the characters at times felt weak and the fact that all aliens looked the same really rubbed the wrong way, ngl.
Actually planning on doing a replay for a video one of these days.
Will go more in depth then.
@@lufromhades96 Looking forward to it, should be a fun video.
Mass Effect is so so special. Amazing storytelling. Truly a work of art. I will always hold it close to my heart.
You are not alone.
Saw a comment earlier,
where the dude plays the game every year.
Think I may start doing the same,
given that no modern game that I can think of really brings out those feels you know?
Keep this formula up. Extremely professional on the level of at least a 100k RUclipsr. Excellent video!
Thanks man.
This is what I love to here.
Will try to make more content like this more often 💖
Also, the music in this game is amazing. It's simply perfect. I hope they will hire the same people for ME5.
@DutchXFangirl Unfortunately I don't think that is the case.
From what I recall from seeing in gaming news, alot of the OG Mass Effect team is gone. I think they actually making their own new IP called exodus (www.exodusgame.com/en-US), which I'm cautiously optimistic about.
I still have some faith that the team making ME5 could do a good job, though I wouldn't expect anything at the same level as the OG trilogy.
@@lufromhades96 Oh, right, I forgot! I even subscribed to their newsletter. Looking forward to that one.
Great video. I would like to see more videos from you about Mass Effect including Andromeda which many people hates it but I like it as well.
Thanks for the support mate.
Really appreciate it.
I've got a few videos planned, andromeda is one of them.
It'll likely be released in a few months, as I'm trying to release other videos before that, and life stuff.
But you have been heard friend🫡.
Next vidoes will be character tierlist, and ranking the controversiall ME3 endings.
One of the few games I 100% Platinum scored on the PS5 and it was totally worth it.
Props to you sir, you have earned my respect and thanks 🙏
Sooo... I just finished ME1... twice... not something I planned... but kinda' forced myself into it. I first finished ME1 on Xbox 360... and just before I finished it, I got hold of the ME legendary edition for Xbox One/ Series. Not wanting to buy the original ME2 and ME3 for the Xbox360... and failing at importing the character I played with (canon Shepherd) to Xbox Series X ME2 LE... I decided to play ME1 LE so I could play through the trilogy with the same character.
I'm kinda' glad I did, as the second time I got to enjoy the story and dialogue a little more. Some background: 42 years old here who didn't get the chance to play the ME trilogy when it first came out... so my gaming skills were a bit rusty, was used to keyboard and mouse, so adjusting to playing on a controller took a while...
Now, I just started ME2 LE, and I realized immediately I miss the Normandy crew. I haven't read any walkthroughs yet, so I don't know the story line in advance... but I had that feeling... dang I wanna progress as fast as possible to the point I may be re-united with my old crew.
And that, IMHO, is the power of the ME trilogy: the story that you go through as a crew, not as a single character doing all the heavy lifting. I loved how the development of each crew member went in ME1, I'm curious as to what the future holds.
So, I must chime in and say: this must be played as a trilogy. Not as three separate games... Yeah... I have a small gripe against of some changes in the game mechanics, interface, and so on, but I'll get used to after a few hours of gameplay.
Long story short: great video, great game!
Thanks for sharing mate.
Can't agree with your points more.
Hope you enjoy your complete playthrough.
Reuniting with your crew in ME3 feels even better 😁
Finding and playing the ME series has been the most joyful and painful experience of my life. Everytime I finish a playthrough its like I go through withdrawl
Currently, there is a new Mass Effect game in production but whether it's based on the destroy ending, (which I believe it should be since there's a possibility Shepard lives,) or something else is anybody's guess. However, I'm hoping that whatever the developers create, it's as compelling and emotional as the trilogy was. IMO, Mass Effect is the greatest science fiction story ever made regardless of the ending and worthy of replaying.
I co-sign this comment
I've beaten this game series at least 10 times over. I've gotten every achievement recently, done an Insanity Renegade run as one of my more recent runs and let me fucking tell you. The gut punches in 3 are far worse than getting my shit rocked by Collector's in 2. But I knew that if the crew was going to suffer me being a douchebag being Renegade, I was also going to suffer playing on the hardest difficulty.
But FUCK if I'm not going to keep playing this masterpiece. This series, as you said, is a space epic/drama that rivals Star Wars and similar. I will never get tired of this series. I'm on a Sentinel playthrough right now, and have a definitive lore playthrough setup for my next run afterwards. And then many, MANY more after that since I'm just starting into the modding scene.
Dude how you can do a complete renegade playthrough, expecially in ME3? 🫢
I've seen the consequences from videos on RUclips.
I couldn't be so cold blooded 😭😭😭.
Thank god you got another playthrough in the pipeline, it's criminal to have your last playthrough as all renegade.
I've got quite a few playthrough, but I've never had the guts to go full renegade.
Always only end up changing my romance choice pretty much.
@@lufromhades96 It's fucking rough yeah. But again, that's why I did it on Insanity. If I was going to be a dick to everyone, I was in fact going to suffer as well. ME2 is by far the hardest of the three, especially as a Vanguard.
I did end up doing the WORST ending though, so just completely reset everything anyway. Shooting the star child is funny.
@@Blazer4117 I hear you.
Shooting the star child is the best.
I wish, if you had enough military strength you could get a hidden ending where you actually win without the crucible...
Oh what could have been🥲.
Atleast we still have the triology I guess.
Stop yelling at me! I already do, and it's great, damn it!!!!
Started my second playthrough of it last weekend.
I'd love to do the same, but I need to finish Elden Ring 😤, then beat the dragon age trilogy to prep for veilguard. This is all for content of course, and cause I love these games.
Am 40 and find hard to get into any game if it’s not made by Naughty Dog or involves Greek mythology. I started Horizon put it down, Borderlands put it down,But Mass Effect has sucked me in so much that I cant let it go, Last Sunday I probably came close my personal record of 16 hrs in a single day. Am on Mass Effect 3 now-and fully motivated to complete the triology three times over and platnium everything, insanity included.
@syedzgaming
I feel you friend.
I'm the same.
Thanks for sharing your experience.
Love to see peeps you love the peeps as much if not more than me.
Have you considered giving Dragon age a shot?
Believe it or not, for years I heard the galaxy map as background music when I was studying and I didn't played it back then.
Then the legendary edition camebto be and I decided, why not give it a try? Lets see what these games had to offer... And man... They didn't disappoint, they became one of my favorite games of all time.
The companions are awesome.
I've actually loved it so much that I did bought the games for my closest friends for Christmas. (and unfortunately they still didn't try it...)
To experience mass effect, you have to play it.
Are you still unsure if you should play? Let me tell you that you should!
That's kinda mad,
but in all fairness the music for the trilogy was fantastic.
Glad you finally got to experience the franchise,
a shame your friend hasn't played the game yet.
Good on you for spreading the world.
Peeps need to know how amazing this franchise was.
From all games I've played in my entire life very few had me emotionaly distraught such as ME3, most notably towards the last mad dash to the beam. I joined the crew fairly late and played the trillogy twice, for the first time in the last three weeks. To hear Liara playing "Vigil", to have a last minute banter with Garrus in the top of the Citadel and FINALLY, to accompany my Shepard singing along with Tali at the Citadel DLC. That's a well written story of frendship, comradery and love built throughout all games that is totally unforgettable. All of this is just a tiny bit of the massive amount of content that large part of the crew gets but nontheless, it shows how we, as players grew to love most part of characters, to watch their personal development and to somewhat sharing all of this through their relationship with Shepard.
At the same time the ending brings some very needed closure to this universe I SIMPLY CANNOT HELP NOT BEING OVER THIS ENDING and how it was done. I don't know if it was because of the hopelessness of the Reaper odds (even though I got perfect destroy) or if it was because the Normandy crew bond with Commander Shepard was abruptly cut in the finale. Maybe it was both but to see some of the characters you've shared jokes, stressful moments and happiness in such a short amount of time dealing with grief its painful to watch, and even if there might be some beauty to it, you grieve it too.
That was beautiful friend...
Just beautiful, pretty much captured my feelings exactly.
Wish I could go back in time and ask you to add this in the video.
I can feel the passion.
Glad you found this game, and are part of the community.
This series is a gem, I said it was goated way back in 2012, and still feel the same now.
There's no game I've seen at least, that has gotten me to care so much about characters.
Out of curiosity, what did you prefer more, sniper shots with Garrus in the citadel,
or the farwell chat?
For me it's the farewell chat, I always cry when I see it
@@lufromhades96 Shepard's farewell in London, "may you be in heaven half an hour before the devil knows you're dead" hits different after broshep's story with Garrus. Their last piece of dialog is the reason i always bring him to the beam
Just finished the trilogy for the first time week ago.. I was trying to not start a new play through in the day i finished it, so i started just yesterday 😂. All my life the witcher trilogy was the best trilogy i ever played for a whole life, but when i finished Mass effect 1 i already knew where it goes, i already knew that the witcher trilogy will have to go on the second place after this and i regretted that i never tried it before, but at the same time i’m glad because i had a chance to play this for the first time when i’m already an adult. 10/10 We’ve had a good ride.. The best.
Duuuuuuuuude, coming in with citadel DLC quote.
You bringing me to tears mate 😭😭😭😭😭.
@@lufromhades96 haha also great video man, keep it up, really good quality, people in the comment section aren’t wrong, i would think you really popular content creator.
@@gnitzPR Thanks for the support mate.
I plan to make more content like this in the future.
This is the greatest Sci-fi game series ever made
Couldn' t agree with you more.
I wanted to say was the best, but I felt it best to leave a little wiggle room as I haven't played everything 😅
@@lufromhades96 take my word for it my dude. I’ve played A LOT over the years and this game takes it all. It’s so good I’m not surprised no one has taken a crack at a feature length adaptation. Some of the folks that worked on that game worked on Terminator II, Aliens, Star Wars, you name it. That’s why that series is so good. I remember at first release for the third one the endings were trash and they went back through and fixed them but, after that the game shined much brighter than its peers and that conversation system!? Don’t get me started! The live action free flow of the conversation coupled with corresponding animation blew my mind. It was literally like being in those 90s movies just way, way better. For a while I forgotten all about Jedi and realized I would have followed Shepard into hell with no way back. There’s one particular ending to the whole thing that is so fire 🔥 but, I doubt most folks have the balls to do it! 💪 So good!
I've played the mass effects over 5 times each as a teen. But I only ever played 2 dlc. Dhadowbroker and leviathan dlc. So I gotta go thru the games 1 last time to experience everything, I never even met javik! How is a 13 year old supposed to buy DLC??
Yah mate, it’s almost criminal how BioWare was hiding such key story material behind DLC paywalls.
The citadel DLC in ME3 is the best one, trust me on this.
You’ll agree with me once you get to it 😬
Just finished Mass Effect 3 and not gonna lie maybe is because is fresh but ill put it down as one of the greatest triologies of all time to me is a 10/10
@@EpicDrew15 yeah i mean i understand why ppl hated the ending but i dont know i guess i didnt bother me that much. Maybe because i knew the whole time Shepard was going to die but by destroying the reapers i think it wraps up Shepards story in a solid triology. Its not a happy ending but is a hopeful one.
I think a lot of the hate boils down came from how the endings were initially presented before the extended cuts DLC.
I guess the old saying holds true, it's not always what you said, but how you said it, and how the endings were initially presented left much to be desired.
But I feel the same as you, after coming back to the franchise after awhile, the endings don't piss me off anymore.
I always just feel a little bit melancholic, cause the epic ride has come to end.
i did my first play trough recently (ps4 version) , this became one of my favorite games, i just got the ps3 trilogy so i can play the original. Andromeda was fine, not terrible but not great
Love the commitment.
I don't think I could do it myself.
Gotten to used to the improved visuals and frame rate in the legendary edition.
That and I can't see myself firing up my ancient ps3 , it's basically a paper weight now😅.
Ok I’ll try it😭 honestly after witnessing the release of Andromeda, I just completely ignored the entire franchise. Mistake on my part fs, it’s like the GOW Ascension of the franchise… you just don’t talk about it💀
I’m glad you started uploading again tho🔥 I wish you all the best with the Channel💪
@JoshWickPlays I'm glad the video managed to convince you.
The Mass Effect Trilogy is something speacial.
From what I've seen of your gaming catalouge I'm sure you will enjoy it.
In the freak scenario I'm wrong, I sincerly apologize 😅.
And yah, never judge Mass Effect by Andromeda... PLEASE.
@@lufromhades96Haha yeah my bad on that😭
I think Andromeda isn't a bad game. It's just doesn't hit the mark when compared to the original trilogy. I suspect that if it was set in some other universe and not given the Mass Effect title, the opinions of it would be much higher.
If you have the PC version be sure to get mods
I consider it one glorious game
That it is my friend.
Truly one of a kind.
I am not telling good or bad game here, but we can not play Mass Effect ( the 1st one most ) as its was originaly made ! The 1st game was changed ( gameplay ) and also missing 1 dlc. Its good to play it, as all games as well to know the diffence between then and just to have fun. I like every mass effect game, but I miss the 1st and most original one, the gameplay in the 1st game its unique and fun, but its not so easy to play all dlc anymore by normal means if I am not wrong !
I played the original trilogy on PS3.
I agree with you that there were changes, but for the most part the legendary edition provides the same core experience, brought to the modern day.
The only part I somewhat miss in the multiplayer, which was pretty fun back in the day.
I can’t stop playing it even with how disappointed I am with the ending of three. I love it but I still wish they would’ve reworked the ending of three instead of pulling the artistic license card.
I was wishing for the same thing when I heard about ME LE for the first time.
But hey, at least we had one hell of ride.
Still haven't had a better gaming experince since.
@@lufromhades96 that’s why I keep replaying the games. I want to try every romance option too except the homosexual ones I have no personal interests in.
Love this, but have to ask: what is your accent? Where are you from? Ok, but back to ME... it's the perfect game, made literally perfect with mods. And LE is all that much better. Thank you for continuing to spread the love for my favorite game series!
I'm South African.
What did you think it was, I'm curios?
And no worries mate, thanks for the support.
Been meaning to make this for awhile, had to spread the word about this game. Also made this get a friend to finally play the game 😂
I can't play mass effect anymore.
I lost the mojo/magic.
I'm so sad to here that.
When was the last time youn played the game?
Maybe you just need a long enough break before diving back in,
just long enough when the world seems fresh again you know.
Congrats on breaking +1k views
Thanks mate, I'm over the moon.
I actually only thought this vid would get like maybe 100-250 views.
Seeing all these views and comments means the world.
Really encouraging me to make more videos asap.
Just about the title ....
Dude I bought me le on every platform possible and gained platinums everywhere and around 250 hours each platform (pc, ps5, xbox series). And now I`m walkthroughing on hacked switch via pc remote play .....
Only I didn't walkthrough original trilogy
Your passion to the series needs to be saluted 🫡.
I've only played ME LE on PS4/PS5, and PC.
@@lufromhades96 +19 Paragon points
I wanted to plat the legendary edition.
I thought you had to get a PERFECT rediness score.
I had to betray mordin and wrex...i felt genuinely terrible.
It absolutely ruined my experience like judus FORGIVE ME COMMANDER FOR I HAVE SINNED!
It was so difficult to like your comment mate.
I appreciate your passion, but BETRAYING Wrex and Mordin in ME3 is peak 😭😭😭
Please tell me you redeemed yourself in the last playthrough??
@@lufromhades96 no. Not yet.
I can not erase a betrayal so quickly.
I will on another full me1 2 3 playthrough as it needs another timeline to set that right.
@Shoutatclouds Good man 🫡.
I would, but I hate EA.
Please give it a try mate.
I'm not a huge fan of EA,
but this game is a true gem, as many peeps in the comment section would agree.
I have always been surprised that Mass Effect didn't spawn a Scifi RPG wave.
Instead gaming regressed to souls-like and online shooter nonsense.
BTW, What did you think about Andromeda?
I agree with you, it is surprising.
If I was to guess, I rate the main concern would be buget,
and the bad track record of most video game movie adaptations.
I plan to actually make a video expressing my thoughts on the game, after doing another replay.
TLDR, I think the game is a 6 to 7 out of 10.
I think it's given a bad rep,
because of the buggy state at launch,
and it failded to meet expectations.
It had the best gameplay in the franchise for me.
It was the story, character designs, and characters that let it down for me.
Not to say it was bad, just not to the caliber that we as fans were accustomed to.
What are your thoughts friend?
@@lufromhades96 Andromeda is like DA2 for me: I liked playing it, but it was forgettable afterwards. It just didn't have the same impact on me that the Mass Effecy trilogy and DA:O did.
I play the trilogy once on an annual basis
I think you on to something my friend.
Before I made this video hadn't played the game in years.
Great video but the one part I disagree with you on is saying that the three games you mentioned were better. You can't even compare it to souls game, then you said threw in Horizon and Cyberpunk. Respectfully, the games are trash and keep in mind I've played them both. They commit the cardinal sin of being extremely boring and underwhelming.
I can understand how you feel that way.
And thanks for being polite, no offense was taken 😁.
I really enjoyed my time with both games, but only on my second playthroughs when I got invested in the lore.
A while back when I was doom scrolling on RUclips I found videos on both games, that were speaking about the lore and plot.
When I then went back to those games, I really had a good time during my second go around.
Particularly Cyberpunk, I feel that if you try role play a bit, reading the gig specs and just being fully present while playing the game,
you get to really see its charm. The gameplay is also petty cool.
My only real issue is that the plot is kind of all over the place, and not in a good way.
It's easy to lose track of things and just stop caring about what are supposed to be dramatic in game moments.
The only part of the game that is really well structured is the Phantom liberty DLC, which is just amazing in my opinion.
Mass effect is the best trilogy. The games need to be replayed again and again. Just epicness all around. andromeda doesn't count 😂
With or without the extended cut. Nothing BioWare has done changes the fact that this ending destroys the narrative coherence of the entire trilogy, and at the very least significantly reduces its replay value. The only thing that halfway fixes the ending is a fix from the community: the ‘Happy Ending Mod’. It's not a perfect solution, but it's the best the community could do with their limited resources.
I feel your frustrations.
The game was so good.
Borderline a 10/10,
until literally the last 30 mins.
The abrupt fall to a 5-7/10 ending is just so abrupt that it's hard not to be pissed.
Before playing ME LE and making this video,
I used to still enjoy ME3, but only play up until the final mission.
For me, after beating ME LE, I guess I've just learnt to love the journey and not get so hung up on the ending.
I genuinely fell in love with the game again,
and realised despite having played more games since the ME3 release,
there hasn't been any game since, that has got me to feel like that.
Maybe Cyberpunk 2077...
I teared up when my V called Johnny her friend before the ending.
Hard disagree. While I did not enjoy the endings, the fact is that I don't think there is _any_ ending that would satisfy. Beyond that, life rarely has endings that are satisfying so for this to be just one more example of that fact makes me okay with it. Most importantly though, what makes Mass Effect special is the relationships you build with the characters. The ending does nothing to change that. Mordin's sacrifice still guts me Shooting cans on top of the citadel with Garrus still brings a smile to my face. The shore leave DLC will always hold a special place in my heart. That last 30 minutes or so does not take away those beautiful memories the trilogy has given me.
@Kefroth1 Agreed. It's not the destination but the journey. There are so many great memories between characters. That's what gives me it's replay value.
Imagine you're having a wonderful evening with an old friend in a bar. You're drinking, reminiscing, laughing and so on and so forth. Just before you say goodbye, you have to watch as he gets into a terrible pile-up and with every car that hits him, he gets more and more crushed and trapped as he screams for help. Basically Final Destintion style. - Which is the more defining experience? The evening or the ending?
@Chuck_vs._The_Comment_Section The evening. The accident would be shocking, but I wouldn't be remembering my friend as "that guy that got into an accident." I would remember him as a wonderful person who I have treasured memories of and feel sad that they are no longer in the world. The accident does not define the person.
Tried to download it on Steam and it's trying to force me to install Origin in order to play it. If I wanted Origin, I would install Origin without being prompted. Does anyone have a workaround for this? I just want to run it through Steam. Technically, I have this digital copy of the game so I believe I am fully within my rights to explore ways of accessing it without downloading crap I don't want like Origin.
I’m here to say it: they butchered Anderson’s model in the remaster ☠️
Honestly I never noticed.
Last time I played the original trilogy was quite sometime ago on the PS3,
like in 2018 I think, back when my baby was still functional 🥲 (I miss that console).
I'll take your word for it though.
@@lufromhades96 the facial textures became (by stark comparison) plastic-smooth, and his mouth moves less dramatically I feel
5:56 mass effect is not better than modern games? At least mass effect worked on release. Shots fired at cyberpunk lol 😂
😂 I won't fight you on that point,
but CDPR eventually managed to fix it.
Honestly I was trying to be objective.
In my personal opinion,
Mass Effect still trumps 90% of games for me,
modern ones included.
It's just I've seen younger friends and nephews play the game,
and they unfortunately didn't love the series as much as I did.
My suspicion was that the reason lied in the potential dated visuals, and gameplay, in comparison to modern titles.
@@lufromhades96 I'm not having a fight mate, I'm just poking a jab at cyberpunk. No direct antagonism towards you
I stopped taking you seriously after saying forbidden west is better than mass effect
I can see how you reached that conclusion.
I think we actually may still agree, though I could be wrong 😅.
For it's time Mass Effect is substantially better.
From a overall story perspective, it leagues better.
Unlike forbidden west, Mass Effect also spwaned clones,
with other games copying it's dialogue system to some extent.
The point that I was trying to make, was that stuff like gameplay, visuals, cinematic cutscenes etc.
I feel in those aspects, Mass effect still holds up, but isn't better than modern releases.
I'm in the same boat as you though, I'll always take Mass Effect over the likes of Forbidden West.
As someone who started gaming in the ps2 era, I can still appreciate games from way back when,
but I've seen younger people try play games like Mass Effect and get turned off, prefering modern tripple A releases.
I made this video with the hope that it could also encourage people biased towards next gen graphics, more gameplay etc.,
to play what is in my opinion a goated franchise.
Thanks for the engagement by the way.
It supports the channel and I genuinely appreciate it.
@@lufromhades96 I respect the response. I played Mass Effect LE for the first time last year so i got no nostalgia weighing down any opinions here. 3 tremendous games. I don't really see how the first one aged. The graphics are fine for the remaster and the gameplay works just fine
@@lufromhades96 forbideen west doesn't have better gameplay, it has different gameplay. They aren't trying to do the same thing here
*I love how you said 4:12 "HIS" team. Not her, not their. As if we need to start pandering to weirdo freaks about what's popular and what's not.
