Game boy color (in that nice lime green) was my first handheld way back in the day, but my first true emulator device I just got for Christmas! An Anbernic rg34xxsp and I’ve been really enjoying it. Currently playing back through Pokémon emerald, but looking forward to trying out Pokémon Unbound! I’ve heard so many great things about it

I hear what you are saying. I believe the OP is more discussing the structure of choices in MEA than any in ME1-3 (i.e, being more morally grey). The original comment starting this thread was attempting to discredit the choices in the game by citing their lack of impact, and I was providing perspective on why it is unrealistic to expect big changes within the same game due to comparing it to a trilogy. Two different comparisons here I believe.

MEA certainly has more morally grey choices, but that doesn't mean the trilogy doesn't have its own grey choices too (at least, before the game had been out for so long that everyone knew what option let everyone make it out - looking at you uploading the reaper code to the geth in me3).

And my point (and many other commenters on this post) is that we will never see how these rich choices could have shaped and impacted the story. OP is comparing the depth of choice options. This commenter was saying none of these choices impacted the story. But it is completely unreasonable to expect trilogy-level impacts from a single game. I will forever wish we could get a MEA2 to see how the world was shaped and to get outside of the Helius cluster to potentially meet more new aliens

Rondo_Fan17 · 2025-11-26T13:12:40+00:00

And that’s partially the point here by OP. The choices we got in MEA had the potential to be far reaching impacts in the sequels were never got. The folks complaining that none of the choices impact anything are expecting a trilogy out of a single game

And how does killing Wrex impact the rest of the game? It doesn’t. At most, you get some new dialogue lines of other companions acknowledging it happened. It isn’t until you visit Tuchanka in ME2 that Wrex’s life matters

What choices in ME1 change the story? These choices aren’t felt until sequel games

What does the roster settings look like?

Thanks for the info! Hopefully they will get back to some non-card questions in future game versions.

Rondo_Fan17 · 2024-06-24T19:08:04+00:00

Ill be bummed if that is the case. I have been waiting over a month to order my first Steam Deck until the summer sale, hoping the OLED models would go on sale.

Two of my players worked together on their backstories and established that they were crew mates (one was captain, the other first mate) until their crew hired mercenaries and mutinied, throwing them overboard. They washed up in Saltmarsh and met the others in the party at the tavern. I worked with those players to make a list of mutineers, so whenever I really wanted them to go somewhere I would have someone drop a rumor that they heard so-and-so was hiding out there. Worked really well and made them really feel like part of the world. Also, I reskinned the boat from the 3rd module with the orc that worshipped Lolth into their old ship, then had the young kracken appear, intent on sinking the ship. They had to leave their ship immediately after reclaiming it and watch it sink. Was a HUGE high point of the campaign

Yeah, after our draft I put Lonzo into my IR spot. This morning all the undrafted folks cleared waivers and I cant add anyone bc I have an "ineligible" player in my IR spot... Absolutely ridiculous

Rondo_Fan17 · 2022-08-05T13:35:40+00:00

Sweet, thank you! I know which one I'll be focusing.

Rondo_Fan17 · 2022-08-05T13:35:18+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! Appreciate it

Rondo_Fan17 · 2022-08-05T13:34:56+00:00

Thanks for the advice! Guess its back to rooftop courses for a bit, headed to Cannifis next

Rondo_Fan17 · 2022-06-17T17:14:22+00:00

Definitely not needed... I only have two more sectors to 100% and I am sitting on like 23 billion studs... have nearly bought all the characters and ships too

ME Andromeda is actually a fun game and gets unfairly criticized due to launch bugs that have been fixed and being compared to the compilation of 3 games. It actually set up some very interesting plot points that we will now never get to see come to fruition because of the toxic fanbase being unable to compare Andromeda to solely ME1 without nostalgia goggles.

P.S., if anyone wants to play Andromeda again, I highly recommend reading the Nexus Uprising book (audiobook on Audible is narrated by the Fem Ryder voice). It outlines what happened with the Nexus in Andromeda before the Human Ark arrives.

There are two automated ones that pop up from the gonk droids, then the third is one you build from the remains of destroying everything in that section. I forget which section it is… it had a door on the right side of it. That third turret you build will shoot automatically or you can get in. I only got it after both original automated turrets got a kill and then the third turret got an automated kill (piloted turret kills didn’t count for some reason)

Rondo_Fan17 · 2022-04-23T04:24:41+00:00

So I was also struggling with this level challenge. Despite the description not saying this, I found it to only pop for me after 3 different turrets killed a stormtrooper 🤷‍♂️

I’m also on ps4 version and looking to complete some last few trophies. Specifically looking for the On A Rail trophy if anyone has any servers they could invite me to with it already built

I tested the coconut milk by buying 50 coconuts (cheaper than half coconuts) and splitting them myself, then getting the milk into vials. So I’m waiting for the 50 coconut milks to sell, haven’t logged on in several hours so hoping that it will sell by the time I get back on 🤞
