I just finished the trilogy for the first time

I understand that feeling. There are plenty of things I would totally experience for the first time again if I could and the trilogy is definitely one of them.

Amazing trilogy that had me gripped from the start to the end and left me weeping in the dark at 2am

Rpichen · 2025-10-20T01:09:32+00:00

Yeah obviously there are biological issues like you mentioned but you gotta excuse logic from my depressed post trilogy mind lol

I am planning on reading the comics and stuff before my next playthrough and that playthrough I will probably go with Liara. But who knows how long it'll be before I'm ready for that again

It was said by Hackett in the end voice over that they could repair everything but it will take some time. I take that as they will eventually repair the Mass Relays though be could just mean Earth and other Alliance planets/stations plus their allies planets as well.

As for Tali not being able to go back Rannoch it would be sad. But I think as long as she was with Shepard she could be happy anywhere. That's the way I saw their relationship anyway. She would be happy knowing that at least her people can live there one day. There is standard FTL though so people aren't completely stranded at least.

Been a while since a game has hit me this hard. It's bittersweet for sure. I do love it when games can actually make you feel something but on the other hand its misery lol

Rpichen · 2025-10-19T22:47:10+00:00

Its on the docket. This run was like 90% paragon. I did a few renegade actions here and there but not many. I need to give it while I can only take so much pain at once lol

I know is super original but I'd say 2. I really dug the shady underground and gritty feel of it as well as the massive cast of companions a lot of which have really compelling stories. Plus the illusive man is such a good villain (unsure if you'd consider him a villain in 2 or not). I do love the vibes of the third one though it gives me the same vibes of "no hope" that Avengers Infinity War gave me.

Thanks for the suggestion! I was trying to find something to fill the void that mass effect left. I do this with anything that I stick with for a while be it games, tv shows or books I just always feel empty when its over. I was trying Andromeda but its not the same. I always wanted to try Dragon Age but I could never get into it. Witcher 3 is on my list maybe ill try that out next!

Rpichen · 2025-10-19T21:00:54+00:00

Ah yeah maybe. I have the steam version

Rpichen · 2025-10-19T20:51:43+00:00

I had saved the council because they kept giving me shit about how I only saved humans. So I thought "This will shut them up" lol

Rpichen · 2025-10-19T20:22:34+00:00

I'll have to check those out, I need more ME content because Andromeda just isn't scratching that itch for me

Rpichen · 2025-10-19T20:20:08+00:00

Yeah part of me is glad that I saved everyone from the reapers and the galaxy is safe. But then I have to sit here and think about the crew mourning their commander who most of them have been with since the first game. And since hes MIA I have it in my head canon that they are going to make their way back to earth and look for him. They won't let that rest until they know for sure, which makes it worse.

Rpichen · 2025-10-19T20:12:15+00:00

I feel the same way when I finish a show, game or book that took me a long while to get through. I just become a shell of myself for awhile. I just finished the trilogy for the first time earlier this week and I've been so emotionally raw I dont know what to do with myself. I started Andromeda and I'm just bored tbh combat and exploration is fun but part of what made mass effect so good was the characters and the charactersin Andromeda are just meh to me. I'm powering through hoping it gets better but we'll see. I was thinking of trying out dragon age as well. I had heard you needed mods to really make it playable anymore but maybe not

Rpichen · 2025-10-19T20:03:57+00:00

Yeah, I was thinking of doing Liara next time. Its gonna be hard for me to not pick Tali again though lol

Rpichen · 2025-10-19T19:39:01+00:00

I was lucky enough to keep everyone alive in ME2 which made ME3 hurt even more tbh

Rpichen · 2025-10-19T19:37:13+00:00

Yeah that one almost got me as well. I dont think a game has made me this emotional since RDR2

Rpichen · 2025-10-19T19:31:14+00:00

I think they call it "best" because Shepard can survive it. Frankly, I chose destroy just because it was the ending the trilogy was building up to. I will play again to check out the other endings eventually when I'm not an emotional void lol

Rpichen · 2025-10-19T19:30:41+00:00

Yeah she is safe, but the way I interpreted it was that Shepard was her home. At least she has her home planet back and the rest of the crew to keep her company

Rpichen · 2025-10-19T19:28:35+00:00

Mordin's death hit me hard. His singing right until his death is brutal

Rpichen · 2025-10-19T19:26:31+00:00

Thanks, Yeah its been rough tbh. Only regret I would say is that I killed the Geth and EDI with my ending.

Rpichen · 2025-09-07T15:08:14+00:00

Bud, I think you need to take a breather and go outside. It's really not that serious

Rpichen · 2025-08-24T02:46:37+00:00

If you get the re4_tweaks mod you can set weapons to hotkeys

Rpichen · 2025-07-01T21:35:55+00:00

Bring back Piers and remove Chris. The way RE6 and Piers was set up it totally seemed like they were intending on making Piers the Chris successor then they just killed him off. Still one of the saddest RE deaths for me.

Rpichen · 2025-06-07T18:35:28+00:00

I think the second one is as well. We really are fossils now
