So to save 10 mins: The Mass Effect Remaster is a remaster not a remake meaning major content is still the same and anything that you might get slightly offended by that was in the OG trilogy is still around. Graphics for the most part look better, controls have been slightly tweaked for a better feel. Same Mass Effect Story, new coat of paint. If interested in the games overall, this version is the version to get.

In the same way I know I'm probably not using the preferred English / American term when I write 'mental differences' but I'm working with the vocabulary I currently have as a non-native English speaker. As progressive as the M.E. trilogy was or was trying to be at the time, it is a product of it's time. The reviewer would do well to remember this.

You know, I think there are things in this trilogy that did not age well, very few of them were covered in this review XD. The lack of markers for objectives in ME1 was annoying, the fact that the completion requirements for certain side quests weren’t totally clear is another problem. I’m surprised he didn’t point out that the quality of ME1’s side quests do not hold up to modern standards. Too often they take you to areas that look exactly the same or planets that are just a colored reskin. These are nitpicks of course, but if he was going to complain about the game, he should at least talk about the mechanics, rather than the story, since this is a remaster not a remake. I’m not even sure a rating system is fair here. Since you are judging an old game by modern standards.

Kind of a bizarre review. Also not sure why Overlord is getting so much flak now. You can’t say BioWare should have left the ending to 3 alone, and then demand they change the content of the game in other areas, like removing or reworking a dlc. I know the reviewer doesn’t mention 3s ending, but it’s a sentiment I see often when discussing giving into player demands. Also it does have a unified character creator, even if Cerberus fixes your scars.

The only true negative i could really mention is ME1 was never designed to be a shooter and relied on dice roll mechanics for outcomes much like a real RPG does. Without this the difficultly level is non existent in most and you will just wipe the floor with them as it is just far too easy to aim now and weapons seem too overpowered. It's not a deal breaker but it does mean you can breeze through the game pretty quickly.

I dont think he was offended. He was merely pointing out facts. If you're watching the review, know nothing of the game, and actually do get offended by such themes, then after watching the review you know this and can pick a different game. This is what a reviewer is supposed to do, let gamers know what theyre in for. He didnt talk about being offended or say they need to change everything. He simply stated what is. Pretty spot on.

I don’t understand judging story elements from a 13 year old game by today’s standards. Also when a game is billed as a remaster, IE at best a fresh coat of paint, why would you expect them to rewrite story elements to fit your standards? To each their own though. The trilogy will always be 10/10 for me.

This review act like these games aren’t a 9-13yrs old. The morality system, while limited, was revolutionary for its time, especially for when ME1 came out. The trilogy story still holds up as one of the best in the entire gaming history. And this is not a remake. This is a faithful remaster. To try and review it based on standards a decade removed, does the series a disservice. I think I’ve actually enjoyed playing it again more than the first time I played it. Whole trilogy 11/10

Respectfully disagree. His main goal is to let folks, including those who have never played it before, know whether it is an enjoyable game today and worth $60, given evolution of game design, not pay homage to whether it was ground breaking when it came out. (And that happens to be exactly what I was looking for). $60 is a lot of money to pay for 3 games that you hardly play because they’ve not aged well. The fact that they “were” good when they came out has zero impact on whether they are fun now. Now, if this was more a historical overview of the impact of the series, then I’d agree with your points. But he makes it clear it is not.

@@ShiningEyeBrigade $60 for 100-150 hrs of quality game play, is money well spent. And the games have aged well. Many of the negative points he has for the trilogy come solely down to the hardware limitations of the time. The story is still one of the best, solid in a way that many of the AAA games of today fall short of, and the gameplay while limited in some ways is still enjoyable. It is still a 10/10 trilogy if people aren’t stupid enough to judge it by today’s standards. We don’t just Super Mario by today’s Standards, or legend of Zelda. or resident evil, GTA3, Final Fantasy 7, etc. So don’t judge Mass Effect 1-3

Shockingly unprofessional. 2. You want a "moral gray area/third way" morality system in a trilogy where your decisions already create branches that span across all three games? Do you understand how impossibly hard it was just to do it like THIS? 3. "Expecially" is something a 5 year-old says, which makes sense given that 80% of this review is whiny crybaby bullshit.

It is a long comment but as a gamer for the past 20 years i have my views so bear with me. It seems the reviewer only played mass effect 1 and rushed to finish the triology without actually playing the game or even never completed the triology. Gamespot should never let such people to review the games. We all know that the graphics are better, what we wanted to know is about the expirence that the reviewer felt when playing the Trilogy. I still remember the old mass effect 3 review by gamespot "the Game engages your mind and moves your heart". That was a review by a passionate reviewer. But this review seems that the reviewer was forced to play the triology and he gave up halfway(or even earlier). I have always found Gamespot reviews more in depth and to my liking/satisfaction compared to IGN(which gives 8/10 to all games). But I am not satisfied with this review, i want Gamespot to let another reviewer play the triology, and post the video again. All those who agree like this comment to make sure it remains on top and Gamespot notices it and do something about it.
