Mass Effect 3 - Part 5

[Upset Spideyfan]

These are the faces that will judge you Corp in the next life.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Holy s***, the Illusive Man is f***ing horrifying. I'm kind of glad he's an unsmiling dick now.

Anyway, just wait. Next up is Sharpe Shepard, who's a pro-human Paragon that won't even recruit criminal alien bastards like Thane, and will do everything in his power to off the aliens he gets stuck with regardless.

 

[spiderbob]

All of them look horrifying.

Now I'm glad I went with Tali. Won't see her face till ME3.

 

[Upset Spideyfan]

Next up is Sharpe Shepard,

Sharpe Shepard doesn't exist.

 

[Upset Spideyfan]

Oh I am definitely wearing this.

Spoiler

 

[Crockett]

Shepard has them swag going on.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Oh wow, now I understand the reason there's a f***ing hoodie included in the CE. I can't believe I didn't put 2 and 2 together after playing through the SP demo the first time.

 

[zenith16]

Well at least you know about it now corp. Man that jackets sweet.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Heh, yeah, I take a while to catch up sometimes.

I saw the live-action trailer. It was all right, but I kind of don't see why it was necessary. It probably cost BioWare an arm and a leg but it didn't even look as cool as the CG ones. Like that shot at the end with Shepard running up on that scion? Nowhere near as pants-wettingly badass as the giant flying leap Shep does with his blade drawn in the previous CG trailer.

Still, it was kind of cool to see "real" Reapers and husks and stuff.

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

Mmmmm, dat leather jacket.

 

[spiderbob]

Huh. I just figured EA was the one that sported the live action bill. I mean they've got the rights to Bioware, right?
I just kinda figured they'd handle the advertising.

But then what do I know. So long as the game's all kinds of awesome, I'm happy.

And we get a good launch trailer like with ME2.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

True, I'm certainly not complaining that they're advertising the hell out of it right now. More buyers = more business for BioWare = more BioWare games in the future.

 

[spiderbob]

And that's a huge plus in my book. Really enjoying their recent stream of games.

 

[Soapy]

I don't think it's such a good thing. EA is spreading Bioware's name way too thin what with all the different Bioware-branded studios they've opened up in the last couple of years.

As long as the expansion doesn't compromise quality, I'm okay with that. The moment that changes I'll be right there with you. But there has to be a way to expand and keep game/story/character quality in tact.

Right?

 

[Soapy]

There most definitely is, but I think that's wishful thinking when you're dealing with a large publisher like EA.

 

[spiderbob]

But surely, EA's never given us a reason to doubt its sincerity and integrity in the past.

Surely.

 

[Benstamania]

Bioware, for the most part, gets a pass from me.. With everything they do. I've enjoyed more BioWare games through the years than anything else.

...I try to forget about the whole EA buyout garbage.

 

[Soapy]

I don't hate Bioware. Other than Dragon Age II, I love everything they've ever done (that I've played). I just don't see a very bright future for them if they stay on the same course.

 

[spiderbob]

You guys are making me sad. Can we talk about sad stuff after we play and enjoy Mass Effect 3?

 

[BrollySupersj]

The new armor pieces look pretty neat. I like the one with the bandoliers.

I may be alone, but I really Liked Dragon Age II. It could have been larger and a bit more open.. But as a whole I'd take it over DA: Origins.

 

[Why Are You Crouching Spock?]

I didn't even bother buying Dragon Age 2. You could see a mile away what was going to happen.

 

[Donut]

If Bioware turns all of their popular RPGs into MMOs. I am done with Bioware. First they did it with The Old Republic. If they did it with Mass Effect & made a non Console MMO & stopped Mass Effect RPG Games. I would effectively be done with Bioware

 

[Why Are You Crouching Spock?]

I agree, Mass Effect and KOTOR should be console focused and and Dragon Age pc focused. Instead, all of these games (including the inevitable Mass Effect MMO) have and will be bastardized. I'm not sure to blame EA or Bioware but whatever, the apple is rotten. Given how Dragon Age sold more on console (most likely due to pirates just nicking it) and the old republic outselling practically every Bioware game, it's hard not to see why they aren't making MMO's and press X to Shepard games.
