BFTD Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 This must have been at the back of my mind, as I've just started through the original again. It's like slipping into a nice warm bath. I've heard nothing about the new one, so I was a bit confused by the presence of humans, asari and suchlike in a game set in a different galaxy. Is the idea that you're part of an "ark" containing people from the Milky Way, sent off in stasis to Andromeda to preserve the galaxy's species once shit gets real with the Reapers? Not a bad idea, if so. It'll be interesting to see what kind of creatures exist over there, and if our heroes manage to find out anything about what happened back in their home galaxy. Fully expecting to get reamed for DLC either way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 If it's anything close to the original trilogy, it'll be incredible. Hard to tell from the trailer, but hoping that the music, gameplay and storyline are all up to scratch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't really look like the new characters are part-synthetic, in the way they portrayed it in the previous game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red 'N Yellow Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Really looking forward to this. I think it's using the same engine as Dragon Age Inquisition which I thought was brilliant. Fighting the dragons in DA:I was superb fun, seems they've carried that over in the form of weird transformer machine things: Don't know what the f**k this is but it's creepy as f**k.

Or they could give you something in a similar style to Dragon Age Keep to have your own canon. Either way, looking forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gc_smfc Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 An issue they will have is that the games were last generation for consoles, so I don't think they'll have the option of the continued story line. So I imagine a canon story if any appears will just be chosen before hand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I imagine a canon story if any appears will just be chosen before hand Dragon Age was the same, the first two were on the previous generation then Inquisition was on the current. They set up a website where your characters and choices from the earlier games were saved, but you could also use it to set up completely different world states. But I'd have thought if they were going to do something like that they'd have announced it already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramagamma Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Mass Effect should have died with 3, honestly don't get how anyone would clamour for more of that series after what they did with 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I remember 3 was actually really pretty good, up until the final boss. The dreaded Marauder Shields Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mackie The Staggie Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Considering all the remastered versions of last gen console games we have had.....surprised we've never seen a remastered trilogy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was rumoured for quite a while, until one of EA's high heid yins was quoted as claiming that they had much more important things to be doing than engaging in that sort of cheap cash-grab behaviour(!) I reckon they're still coining it in on the DLC. They'll have a magnanimous change of heart once nobody's using the last generation consoles any more. But they won't release it on the PC, and won't ever reduce the original DLC price just for the lulz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdgarusQPFC Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Concerned that they really haven't shown any proper gameplay yet, so far its only been cinematic stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeAreElgin Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 The new cinematic trailer is adding to the hype for this. I really hope this is as good as the other 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_Dwarf_Posse Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Watched a Gamespot video with someone who had hands on with it. Says it is different from Mass Effect 2 and 3, not so much a cover and shoot game. Did say the range of weapons and armours you could develop was impressive. He thought combat was pretty good as well. He did have concerns about some technical stuff with the game which he thought should be resolved considering it will be out within a month, he thinks it will be released with some glitches. Also didn't like the new dialogue system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
