Ya'll should I start Mass Effect today? I've been meaning to play a Bioware game for a while to see what all the "good Bioware" discourse is about, but every discussion I've read changes what "good Bioware" was lol - ThreadSky

for sure!! just rly think about what class you pick bc that affects a Lot of stuff

xenobrina.bsky.social•38 days ago

I actually had no idea there were classes before this reply I thought the gameplay was mostly a cover shooter lol

deepseastar.bsky.social•38 days ago

mostly that + rpg mechanics

basically the classes control what guns, tech abilities, and magic abilities (or biotics, in-universe) you have access to
I picked infiltrator, blend of guns + tech/stealth, rly fun if you like using sniper rifles 😌

I started it and got distracted by other games. I put a few hours in and was having fun though! I'd recommend it

For me I really wanna push through to play Mass Effect one day, I've tried so many times but I know on day I'll be like fuck yeah this game is great. Dragon Age Origins is an interesting game once you get it to work with mods cause old port.

Honestly I don't have any interest in Dragon Age because I feel there are better fantasy RPGs I could play instead. Like I haven't played The Witcher 3 yet lol

renbawlz.posts.games•38 days ago

I would suggest give it a go just cause it's a decent story at least for origins. Rest of the series I haven't been through yet. I also got Witcher 3 in the backlog too lol but slowly making through them.

Yes! Mass Effect is an amazing game that has great storytelling it’s feels like a film at times! Mass Effect 2 is the best one but you need to play the 3 in order for sure

xenobrina.bsky.social•38 days ago

Oh yeah I've heard the stories are connected in a very literal way so I have to start with the first in this case. But thank you for the recommendation!

justmattr.bsky.social•38 days ago

Great thing is now it’s all in the remastered Legendary edition so you can get the whole story together. Hope you enjoy it if you do play it!

Mass Effect is amazing! If you're going into it for the first time, I would recommend the Legendary edition. It's all 3 games remastered

xenobrina.bsky.social•38 days ago

I might check out legendary edition but one of my friends has the OG in our Steam Family so that would be cheaper. Might hit up some game stores and see if I can get a deal though!

hunterhenson.bsky.social•38 days ago

Makes sense. All 3 originals and Legendary Edition are on EA Play/Game Pass if you have it

The Mass Effect trilogy is definitely worth playing for sure. If you give it a go I recommend playing as female Shepard, I felt like Jennifer Hale voiced the character so well compared to Mark Meer who just felt like a generic space guy to me.

I’m going to play the trilogy later this year. I hope you enjoy it!
