Report: EA Is Remastering The ‘Mass Effect’ Trilogy At Long Last (Unconfirmed)

[Love Machine]

Can someone who actually played andromeda actually give me a rundown of what's in there behind technical issues? Is there anything worth looking at in there?

 

[Niggernerd]

you mean the two C&C's EA pretends that never existed because they were too damn good?

You'd think as a greedy company they'd like the idea of money raining into their bank accounts.

Most of the technical issues is Day 1 launch shenanigans that people typically overreact to. The real issue at least for in andromeda is the shitty ass story telling with the shitty ass dialogue with shitty ass character. I gave this game the benefit of the doubt and compared it to its predecessors 1st entry Mass Effect, but its completely terrible and not even 1/10 of what the original Mass Effect was. No memorable characters, shitty antagonist, and an even shitier protagonist. The only thing that was somewhat interesting was the mysterious benefactor storyline which was short and still unresolved.

They do. It's why they'd never remaster either, because the current zeitgeist do not like non $CURRENT_YEAR games, even more so when it's games like Generals which are specifically a product of its time (Mid 00s patriotic hype, kill sandniggers mode, haha commie chink meme). You can be absolutely sure the usual suspects will howl about muh white supremacy, muh islamophobia and the CCP will get to ban the remaster again. EA will never take that PR hit for no reason.

and the C&C fans size do not justify it either, not enough potential money for that.

You could say the same for Mass Effect. Anyone that still likes that shitty series is faggots and troons.

Guess who's the most vocal on social media?

Oh man, the GLA voice lines alone guarantee any sort of remake is impossible. Suicide trucks screaming "ALLALALALALALALALAH!" with their tongues waggling as they drive to martyrdom? "Ow, okay, I will work!" from the Workers implying they're abused slave labor? Those are just the two most obvious on my head right now.

I have an exclusive from inside the BioWare offices.

They made sure to try and remove any religious motivations from the GLA, but the suicide bomber still yells "FOR THE PROPHET" when ordering him to attack

 

[Ihavetinyweewee]

I'm not interested in this at all. I guess I may try to give Andromeda another chance when it goes on sale for like 90 percent off.

It's an a amazing thing what happened with mass Effect's decline and the real shame is nobody backedup the bioware forums.

Mass Effect 1 had a ton of technical shit tied to it's gameplay, yes it was kinda rough around the edges, but it felt right at home and not out of place since they were doing a sci-fi game.

Retards played game for the story and didn't bother with any of the side missions and actual content and just zipped through the main campaign. By the second game, the story took prominence because everyone on the bioware forums only cared about who's fucking who, like it's a fucking sitcom and not a video game. Many people didn't even touch the first game and just watched story re-caps on youtube.

So the second game comes out and it's not as interesting as the first. ofcourse the sister series of Dragon Age speedran the eventual fate of mass Effect by it's second game, many forum users complained that Dragon Age's combat was too hard and they just wanted romance choices and movie scenes and nothing else. gameplay wasn't even a thought to these people.

So mass Effect 3 comes out and they fucked up the ending and made nobody happy, this wouldn't have been a problem if the game functioned on a similar gameplay level as the original but they dumbed everything down for the mouthreathing retards who only wanted a fucking gay romance movie and not a science fiction game.

Anyways I consider this video the series' headstone.

The companions are even more tumblr-esque than Dragon Age: Inquisition, they only added two new alien species in an entirely different galaxy, one of which are the token bad guys. The main story is a borderline incomprehensible retread of standard bioware euphemisms and lore, with crucibles and citadels and other vague macguffin bullshit centered around a token bad guy who looks like an infant, yet we're totally supposed to take the midget with a ring on his head seriously as the chief antagonist.

Also everyone talks like a mid-2010's teenager, the "open world" exploration is Ubisoft-tier empty and shallow, and for all this focus on colonization the game chooses to ignore any of the themes that might arise from that plotline to instead just tell you about how the angara are oppressed minorities and how genetic manipulation is evil.

 

[X Pac Heat]

Eh, removing ass shots doesn't matter to me. Not what I played the games for anyways

my problem isn't that they removed the ass shots, but it sounds like that is all they are doing as far as ME2 is concerned.

if they actually went back and used the tech of next gen to realize the original plan for ME2 (that being all recruitment missions were open from the start, something that could easily be done since they recorded all the voice lines for it to work before realizing they couldn't fit everything on one disk) I would be okay with it because they are actively improving the game instead of just censoring it because they're weirdo SJW prudes now.

On second thought, maybe I'll just cross my fingers Andromeda becomes a PSN monthly free game..

lol wrong. Im willing to bet my life that most people would agree that ME2 is what made the trilogy great.

I dunno dude they cut back the exploration compared to the first, and by the third game it was very apparent.

 

[Ihavetinyweewee]

Yeah, ME2 was when the series peaked. It had much more depth than 1.

The first game was pretty bare bones with a ton of bullshit land rover resource fetching...

ME2 also greatly expanded narrative to stuff like side quests..

Gameplay-wise and character writing-wise, sure, I guess.
Main story wise FUCK no. The seeds of story break that fell apart in the last hour of ME3 all started when someone who seemed to actively resent the first game's story took over as the writer in ME2. Nothing fucking happened. Cerberus is important out of nowhere. Flagrant DMPC characters like the Illusive Man and Aria T'Loak are introduced.

The main story break dealt with the whole "dark matter" story angle from ME1. That was, originally, supposed to be the big mystery...

It just kind of abandoned it and just focused on the Reavers..
