Thread 720699718

I'm thinking about buying Mass Effect Legendary Edition. What am I in for?

>>720699718 (OP)
Do yourself a favor and just play 2. 1 is a boring slog in 2025, too many mechanics didn’t age well, and 3 is just a mess.

>>720699718 (OP)
A mess of a remaster, like 90% of demasters out there

>>720699958
>just play 2
Slice your wrists

OP, this is the objective order: 1 > 3 > 2

>>720699718 (OP)
not sure why they call it a collection when there's only one Mass Effect game

DO NOT BUY THE LEGENDARY EDITION IT RUINS THE LIGHTING AND AUDIO FOR 1, 2 AND EVEN 3

IS FULL OF BUGS

HAS WORSE DESIGNS FOR CHARACTERS IN 1 AND 2 DUE TO THEM BACKPORTING 3

AND IS CENSORED BUY THE ORIGINALS AND MOD THEM WITH TEXTURE PACKS IT IS A BETTER WAY TO PLAY THE GAMES

>>720700028
You’re a fucking idiot if you think 1 warrants anything but watching the comic in 2 at this point. 3 is a meandering, convoluted disaster. 2 is and has always been the best Mass Effect.

>>720700223
Look man you don't have to reiterate your sub-60IQ thoughts, we get it

I’m not going to argue with a faggot cocksucking homosexual, you people are wrong about everything.

You can stop looking at the mirror anytime you want, fren

>3 better than 2
I fucking kneel

kino, but you need to install a mod to restore Miranda's ass in cutscenes. They censored it unfortunately.

grab some mods from nexus, plenty to choose from and quick to install.

1 was really fun to play again through LE. I've played 1 probably ~4 times to completion previously, but it was still really neat.

An enjoyable experience from start to finish, highly rec. Don't expect any good conversation to come from here anon, just buy it for cheap, mod it and move along.

>>720700460
Just swallow a load of pozzed nut already queer, do the 3 people in this thread a favor

>>720700714
I'll accept the concession

do not listen to the retards.
you're in for kino gaming that gets a bit weaker narratively as each installment goes, game is fun as fuck anyway and has lots of sovl.

go to nexus and apply some mods on lightning and general QOL enhancements though, just pick the the few top 3 endorsed ones and you're good; legendary edition fucked up a bit of the lightning and some minor stuff/bugs that you may notice.
its quite easy to mod and enhances the experiences big time.

enjoy brother.

>>720699718 (OP)
It's a bad demaster but it's also cheaper than buying the originals + DLC. If you don't want to pirate the originals then it's the easiest way to experience the games now, you might want to throw some mods on though.

>>720700765
What, that you’re a cock smoking homo with shit taste? I’ll gladly concede that

>>720699718 (OP)
There's no reason not to play the originals. ME1 is the best one, ME3 is a compromise, ME2 was a mistake.

>>720699718 (OP)
Narratively:
1>2>3
Gameplay:
3>2>1

>>720699718 (OP)
If you're not against vanilla-tier modding, I'd honestly recommend you play the originals. The ""remaster"" is bad. Tons of new bugs, doesn't fix old ones, manages to make the first two games worse. As for what you're about to get into, one of the best trilogies in the industry, unironically. If you're getting into it now for the first time you won't hate the two sequels as much as most other long time fans do. Still, there's one of 'em that's clearly worse than the other and it's not the usually hated one.
Hope you have a great time OP, Mass Effect is certainly one of the franchises of all time.

For me? It's Javik

>but but.. LE bad
Ah, shut up, tranny. You spam your idiotic opinion in every thread. Kill yourself already.

>>720701561

I see...

>>720701643
damn, this shot looks pretty aight actually

nigger

>cherry picked
All of the day, bro

>>720701643
LE looks better you are a faggot

>the one with 0 detail on Shepard's face looks better
(You)

>>720701764
that vista was fixed with a mod (or community patch) years ago

lets end the argument right now:

wich version makes the girls hotter?

>>720701823
>with a mod
Precisely my point. If you're to mod things, might as well just mod the original over the remaster

>>720701864
The remaster deletes several buttshots

>>720701890
>If you're to mod things, might as well just mod the original over the remaster
No. I'm going to mod LE because it's better, prettier, and a more stable game with community patches; all new mods are for LE as well. Outside of the original ME3 multiplayer, there is no point to play the original games at all.
>but muh lighting in some areas
couldn't care less about that; besides, MELLO fixes bad lighting in ME1.

Just buy the originals OP. It's not worth it for to play through a worse looking game. You get more character features with the legendary edition but everything looks like shit. I immediately noticed and had buyer's remorse but played thru because I like the series. I also have it on a normal console so no mods either.

>>720702224
>because it's better, prettier, and a more stable gam
Sounds like a spic's excuse to play the demake over the intended developer experience

original is expensive as fuck anyway

>>720702343
>demake
retfree in your head also
