- I think that's a big element of CDPR games in general, they kinda scratch that old school Bioware itch of well written interesting characters with complicated/fun personal dynamics.If you want a mass effect experience... its CP2077. Its pretty good now, and the story and immersion constantly reminds me of that early ME vibe.
- Good info on CP2077. I own the game and haven't played it (Got it as a gift, waiting for a GPU upgrade and more patches, and more of my backlog worked down) but man that game is like a prism, it seems to be a different thing for everyone.Cyberpunk has a great story overall but not really comparable to ME in terms of player choices and consequences.
I'm playing all the Witcher games for the first time. The first one is decent but the plot hasn't really grabbed me yet, I'm nearing the end of chapter 2.
i do not think you can get any more better banter between team mates then Dragons Age Origin.It's funny how Geralt can bang any woman he just met.But the combat and dialogue are both pretty forgettable so far, worse than ME1 or DAI although I'll reserve judgment until I finish the game.
I think you need to go back and play the original game again. The difference is pretty massive, especially in lighting which is drastically improved. It does still have the spotlight issue during dialog scenes (Where faces are over bright), but its not nearly as bad as before. Before there would be hard shadows all over the characters faces.Bit the bullet and bought the game(s). ME1 still looks like 99% of the same old game to me. This is just my personal opinion, but the characters look pretty strange to me now, especially their eyes.
- Could you go more into detail on how the combat has changed? I actually really liked biotics from the first game actually using the physics engine (with everything translated into newtons of force), but the gunplay did leave something to be desired (although it wasn't terrible in my opinion either).The biggest improvement for me in ME1 is the combat. It was really pretty bad before. Especially if you went back to play it after playing ME2 or ME3.
The controls were mapped to act like Mass Effect 2. The old way was really clunky. Its not perfect in legendary, but it is a vast improvement. Getting in and out of cover is a lot better, although not as polished as ME2 or ME3.- Could you go more into detail on how the combat has changed?

None of the ME games have particularly great combat as they really leaned into the cover shooter genre pretty hard.
Yeah, if you want to play through the trilogy, this is by far the best choice. Besides all the updates, Legendary also contains every single DLC (except 1), and you can't even get the DLC for the old ones anymore. If you don't want to play it RIGHT NOW, then maybe wait for it to go on sale. But three games for $60, which is roughly 150 hours of game play, its a good buy.So if you never played the game, and wanted to start, it seems like this would be worth picking up even if you own the originals?
sigh still playing ME1.... i need to hurry and finish this so i can start biomutant.Most of the technology i wanted to bring to the floatilla has attempted to kills us.
unless you are desperate for some Mass Effect action, I would wait - give them to patch up the bugs they have, give modders time to fix many problems in LE game. Regardless, listen to reviews and listen to reviews that list problems (ultra wide monitor support, modding support, etc). As that comes back in, decide if/when you want to dive.So if you never played the game, and wanted to start, it seems like this would be worth picking up even if you own the originals?
Witcher 3 was my favorite by far. A much more engrossing story without so much politics. W2 I also finished, but found it a slog somehow, with still a lot of the political intrigue going on. I have started the first game several times and never finished it or even gotten very far. The story didnt really grab me, and the combat was just painfully awkward.Cyberpunk has a great story overall but not really comparable to ME in terms of player choices and consequences.

If you consider the fact you also get biomutant for free, you may want to consider getting a EA Play Pro pass for a few months or even a year sub for any other future titles.ME:LE is tempting me badly, but I was so disappointed and infuriated by the ending of the original ME3 that I probably wont buy it.
Maybe if it gets cheap on Steam and I get better internet for the huge download I will pick it up later.
Yeah, its missing one DLC from the first game. And as I recall, it was removed because the source to it was lost. It did not have any real impact on the game thankfully. There are some old YouTube videos of it.I think its one of the best remakes so far....
It has ALL the DLC's except 1 if im not wrong, and that 1 was removed by EA.
