Hi everyone!
I’ve been replaying the Mass Effect games and I’m really impressed by how great they are.
Someway, even if I really enjoyed them back in the days on my Playstation 3, I feel like it’s now even better now that I get to enjoy the Legendary Edition on my Steam Deck.
I think I might have been too young to appreciate all the work that goes into creating such a universe and how you can just spend time by listening to conversations, look at the world around you and get involved in all the politics and news.
I was also surprized at how integrated the DLC’s are. The other day I started playing the Omega freeing mission in Mass Effect 3, just to discover after a few hours that it’s not part of the main game.
Since I don’t remember my first playthrough, it makes me wonder how many of the DLC’s I’ve played for now.
I’m around 20 hours in Mass Effect 3 and I hope the end is as good as I remember (even if I know that some people where not happy with the end). For now, I don’t even know if there are many endings, so no spoiler please.
All of this, just to say that you shoud get the game if you haven’t played it yet. I got it for around 10$ if I remember, but it’d would even still be worth it at the 69$ they are asking for it these days) I can lower the TDP to 7/ 30 FPS and the game still looks gorgeous on the Deck’s small screen.
I feel like it’s even better than Cyberpunk 2077 while still filling my need of a huge world with a lot of tech stuff and background stories.
Some people are complaining about the always online requirement, but I think you can even avoid it.
I also wanted to add that EA has a bad reputation on Lemmy (and it’s probably justified in a way and not gonna get better soon), but they’ve created some great games over the years. Here is a list of the ones I’ve enjoyed just as a reminder:
-Dead Space 1-3 (3 is great despite everything people are saying) -Battlefield 1 -Star Wars Jedi Survivor and fallen order -Need For Speed Shift 1-2

*EA made good games. Not so much nowadays. Also, really it was Bioware that made these games, EA is the publisher that later bought them out after Mass Effect 1 had completed development.
