Re: Mass Effect, first impressions.

Ok, when you actually have the option of duking it out :lol

Im gonna say this right now; i havent played either game, but talking it out sounds a lot less interesting than duking it out, as most people would agree. Unless, of course, non fighting sidequests do something other than talking and fighting and is STILL interesting?
It's much more interesting. The combat sidequests are just repetitive and boring. Throwing in different characters, and dialog would really spice things up.
 
Re: Mass Effect, first impressions.

this passes the "Uncle tim" test. by that, I mean this. Hes giving me a lot of his 360 games. Hes giving me Gears of War. Hes giving me Bioshock. Hes giving me Oblivion (So what if I already have it XD). Hes not getting rid of mass effect.
 
Re: Mass Effect, first impressions.

I agree with Homicidal on the topic of the weak side-questing. The purpose of side-quests are to give you something to do to A) Beef up your party for tough encounters and B) Break the cycle of play up a little to add flavor. It is hard to break the cycle by going from killing Geth to killing Crazies in a sub-plot. The action is the same with very little change in the way of results. Pull trigger, something happens.lol

I really need to pick that up soon though. I want to see if there are better weapons than the spectre weapons. I doubt it but it is worth a look see.
 
Re: Mass Effect, first impressions.

I'm pretty sure Spectre weapons/armor are the best you can get.

I've gotta say, I'm kind of disappointed in Mass Effect. It was about on par with Jade Empire, for me, and I was expecting better, tbh. They made it into too much of an action game.

Here's hoping Dragon Age is as good as I wanted Mass Effect to be....if it ever hits store shelves.

Yeah, I saw that. That was by far the best response yet. Sessler completely owned them. :D

Anyone think Fallout 3 will topple giants?

I played all thee previous games to near death and loved both Fallout 2 and Tactics. Although tactics wasn't that vulgar or X-rated compared to 2.

Fallout, and Mass Effect are in the same genre. I said I expected Mass Effect to be the defining game of the genre (not in the same words, but that general idea). It wasn't this, so I said maybe Dragon Age would do it. Jaded then suggested another game, in the same genre that could do what I expected Mass Effect to do, so we're talking about Fallout 3.

There's a logical train of thought to this thread, and I'm not sure why I have to sit here, explaining to you, step by step, what should be able to be figured out by just reading the thread.
 
Re: Mass Effect, first impressions.

Thank you sir. I like you because you remind me of Poe's friend in the diction prior to 'Murders of the Rue Mourge'. But I will create a topic nonetheless.
 
Reading through this game again makes me want to buy it again... and it also reminded me of Gameaddict :lol

More DLC in the works for this already Platinum Hit game?
 
Bit late to jump into this thread, but I purchased this game not long ago, I find it amazing, very entertaining, and it is a great pass time on a rainy day.

I feel I need to ask something, sorry if it's alrady been mentioned, I'm just a little lazy to check 8 pages right now... but...

WTH IS WITH THE ROMANTIC SUB PLOT!!!! One second I'm being friendly with the alien chick, and the human chick, because Im a friendly guy and wanna make friends... then I do this mission and my best mates dead and these two chicks make it worse by suddenly making me choose which of them I want to be with?!?! WTH!!?!? So I try to explain that I just want both?!!... but didn't go down well... so... well... I guess i can;t mention what happens later on here on the forums, but yeah... WTH!?!?!
... the game creators must've had a ball with that scene...
... on a lighter note: I HATE GETH!!!!
 
"So we wanted to be able to give people a much more combat-oriented, lighter-story experience. You're going to go to a kind of casino gaming fight club space station."
As much as I LOVE a fast paced combat style game... what's this I read about a 'lighter story experience'... [infuriated expression]
