    Description:
    Mass Effect Legendary Edition is a remastered compilation of the video games in the Mass Effect trilogy: Mass Effect, Mass Effect 2, and Mass Effect 3. It is being developed by BioWare with assistance from Abstraction Games and Blind Squirrel Games, and published by Electronic Arts. All three games were remastered, with visual enhancements, technical improvements, and gameplay adjustments. Mass Effect, the first game of the trilogy, has received more extensive upgrades than its counterparts, specifically with regard to combat mechanics, vehicle handling, and loading times.
    Development on the Legendary Edition remasters commenced in 2019 under the direction of Mac Walters. Although BioWare initially considered other alternatives, they ultimately decided to approach the project as a remaster as opposed to a remake in order to preserve the original trilogy experience. The compilation was announced on November 7, 2020, and released on May 14, 2021 for Microsoft Windows, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4.
    The compilation also includes almost all single-player downloadable content (DLC) that was originally released for each game, such as promotional weapons, armors, and packs. Set in the Milky Way galaxy within an alternate universe during the 22nd century, the trilogy consists of action role-playing games in which the player assumes the role of Commander Shepard, an elite human soldier who must unite the galactic community against an impending threat. Shepard is a customizable character whose morality is determined by the player, and during each game, the player makes choices that can impact the story in various ways. These choices and consequences can be carried forward through the trilogy.

    If there's one thing I noticed is that ME1 has gotten TONS of little fixes. (Will probably be pointing them out.) Like, wow, the Council members are referred to by names now, instead of "Asari Councillor" or whatever? Cool, that's a great lore-friendly fix.

    I recommend taking the elevators as opposed to using the fast travel in the Citadel. The elevator is the only place where you will get party banter (conversations between your companions) as well as getting certain side quests (from listening to the broadcast that plays on elevators). Also, make sure to talk to every Avina, each one has different information and lore. Other than that, you're doing an awesome job exploring everything.

    • @LivingSun

    Each Avina terminal on the presidium has its own unique information to dish out. The one near the emporium is especially informative. Also, using elevators instead of fast travelling gives you unique dialogue either between your squadmates or from listening to the radio while travelling. There's 2 (I think) quests you can obtain by listening to the radio during an elevator ride. Maybe not your thing, but I thought to mention it if you hadn't realized already, which you probably have. Out of curiosity, how many episodes do you generally record at a time?

    • @Summon256
      @Summon256 3 роки тому +9

      It is important to mention, that all the quests received by overhearing news boradcast in the elevator have alternative triggers somewhere! So even if one missed an oportunity to trigger the quest via elevator ride, there is always an altarnative way somewhere...

      well, in this instance, can you blame them. You have an eye witness testimony from a lazy/sleeping dock worker as your only evidence, against testimony from the top operative of the council. Even so, they took time to perform an investigation of your claim. I feel that is much more than most would get, and their refusal is entirely justified.

    If you're interested in Anderson and Saren's history there is a novel written by Drew Karpyshyn (the leader writer on ME1 and 2) called Mass Effect: Revlation. It's 100% canon and some of the events that occur during it will be referenced in the series so I recommend checking it out if you get into the world and can find the time. There's also a second novel called Mass Effect Ascension which takes place after ME1 but before ME2 which will be heavily referenced by certain characters in ME2. Theyre really well written and I strongly recommend checking them out at some point.

Also, the dynamics and interaction/relationship between the Normandy Squad is very fleshed out, as their relationships span out and evolve over the course of three games.
