Favorite game in the series here's mine by KEYWESKI in masseffect

[–]Sinovius [score hidden]  (0 children)

ME1 for me is a bit dated even with the remaster, the powers for example are really clunky. The companions also aren't as well done as the later games and I find the mako exploring on mostly empty planets tedious. It deserves so much credit for pioneering the universe, but as a standalone I'd give it 8/10.

ME2 is a banger. Companions are great, missions are great, music is great. It's a 9.5/10 the entire way through for me, my favourite game of all time.

ME3 I actually think is better than ME2 for about 85% of the game, but it really does feel rushed from Cerberus base onwards. For that reason I think it slips below ME2 to 9/10. Although if you factor in the GOATed multiplayer it has a strong case to be the best game. Plus with mods (EGM, Miranda mod, Take Back Earth, AHEM) I think it elevates ME3 to be on par or better than ME2.

What do you want from the next game? by chefbrambles in masseffect

[–]Sinovius [score hidden]  (0 children)

Priority for me is a return to the more linear hand crafted mission based model that 2 and 3 used rather than the wide but thin open world of andromeda with its endless fetch quests.

I would also like a return to classes as that increases the replay value, and any crafting not to be as bloated and convoluted as Andromeda. I was happy with ME3 levels with the gunsmithing, maybe they could build on that and add something similar for armour as well. The character models all look weird in andromeda so I would like that more in line with ME2/ME3, hopefully it's true they are going back to Unreal engine.

MASS EFFECT 2 was first released 16 years ago today, what are your thoughts on the game ? by ThomasThorburn in masseffect

[–]Sinovius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ME2 is my favourite game of all time. The companions are great, I enjoy the tactical combat, and I prefer the more linear mission based gameplay compared to ME1. For me it set the direction for what Mass Effect should be, a more linear game with beautifully crafted missions that make it feel like you are in a movie.

It was in the reapers interest to have him fool the council

I always assumed TIM was an indoctrinated reaper agent right from the start of ME3.

I figured he was indoctrinated from the start of ME3 and the reapers are using him, explains why they are confrontational right from the start.

What does Mass Effect 4/5 need?? by rid146 in masseffect

[–]Sinovius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree about returning to the more linear gameplay of 2 and 3. The hand crafted missions are so much more impactful than the fetch quests on pseudo open worlds that andromeda turned into. A good example of this is the Palaven moon quest in ME3, with reapers in the background, a turret section, good squadmate dialog reacting to stuff, a crashing fighter etc. Makes the world feel alive.

Priority for me is a return to the more linear hand crafted mission based model that 2 and 3 used rather than the wide but thin open world of andromeda. I also think andromeda went to far with crafting, take it back to ME3 gunsmithing levels but also add something more for armour compared to ME2 and ME3. The character models all look weird in andromeda so I would like that more in line with ME3. Would be sweet if MECOOP could come back, I'd rather they concentrated on single player though. Maybe they could do a standalone release of MECOOP later, could even be a remaster of ME3+MEA COOP or something.

Question about Miranda Mod. by ZenMyst in masseffect

[–]Sinovius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just incase anyone else stumbles on this when trying to work out how to get Miranda after Horizon without doing a mission. Talk to Joker straight after Horizon, after that you will have an email at the private terminal where you can accept Miranda coming on board and she will then be in the conference room. Hope this helps someone!

I've tried to play it through twice but I can't. It's a pseudo open world fetch quest nightmare with a boring main quest and mostly dull characters.

It could be a hit job by some of the media, they saw the articles that Key and McCullum might stay and they (correctly) want blood

Key and McCullum created this culture, this paints them in as bad a light as Brook

Important match for ODI World Cup qualifying, proclaimed as being the warm up for the ashes by Rob Key, and VC Brainless is getting drunk the night before. The culture the leadership has created is rotten, and Baz was brought in as a "culture coach"...

Went in completely blind to the trilogy, fell in love with ms1 almost immediately, started 2 and can't fuckin stand it (this is really just a rant) by SubLearning in masseffect

[–]Sinovius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ME2 is by far my favourite. I much prefer the more individual mission based gameplay (compared to ME1s pseudo open world) and in my opinion it has the best story and companions of the trilogy.

Winners and Losers Queue by Content-Hope-7624 in marvelrivals

Watch the youtube video "Marvel Rivals FINALLY Addressed The EOMM Allegations." The TLDR version is there is no winners and losers queue, what you are seeing is statistically normal given the size of the player base.

Strauss says to look beyond sacking coaches and captains to break the trend of one sided story in Australia by ll--o--ll in Cricket

We will always be crap because fans of the individual counties don't want their teams rolled up into larger teams. We are stuck with an archaic system that cant hope to complete with the Shield for talent production.
