Chocobo posted:I think that canonically (maybe depending on how you shape your playthrough's Shepard), the option to control the Reapers and become god-like eternal Space Cop Shepard is actually the "Good" ending. I remember doing the synthesis choice first but that choice only really exists to justify Seth Green loving a robot. Mass Effect 4 is set after the synthesis ending and is a management simulator where you tackle thorny legal issues like "does a praetorian count as 30 people" and "does the human gun-arm on a cannibal get its own social security number separate from the batarian body"

So they sharpened the textures and slapped a new lighting engine in and that's a remaster

Considering that Destroy is a literal genocide and Synthesis is forcing all living beings to undergo a transformation without consent then the only vaguely non-evil choice is Control and just chilling about as a passive space god.

The only redeeming part of Andromeda was the pretty buried side plot of how the mission was inspired by knowledge of the Reapers. Or something like that. I don’t remember the specifics, but the plot like ended before it concluded by examining some kind of murder on the notCitadel. Jesus, I barely remember anything about that game.

I didn't do a bunch of bullshit so that the quarians didn't genocide the geth just so the geth could get genocided anyway.

The part at the end of ME3 with the Sheen confrontation is kind of lame but his last line if you cap him is probably my favorite thing the character does. I really hope the sequel doesn’t have him in it at all

I remember a mission where a guy is in jail for murder but you find out he only tried to murder the other guy and a kett was the actual culprit so your choice is to free him or keep him in jail for murder instead of remembering that attempted murder is a crime too also aww https://twitter.com/jhaletweets/status/1356766360202711040

The Sovereign reveal on Virmire is so cool and I love Kaiden's line about not wanting to be a Bioware whiner-character since he's Carth and then he becomes a whiner like Carth anyway. Cant wait for the Jade Empire remaster as well.

Never forget that Casey Hudson and some other hack locked themselves in a room to hash out the ending without any input from others.

Shepard died on earth when the reaper fired, the whole 3 endings on the citadel after that was just a random firing of dying neurons dream, Jacob's Ladder style.

It's good to be back. The ME1 component of Legendary appears to be closer to a remake in parts than just a remaster. Look at that comparison of old Eden Prime and new. The environment seems really different. Nice to see they ditched Sovereign discharging core, nice way to close up that plot hole in ME3. I knew you were reading my posts, Casey! Milkfred E.

One thing I’d like to see but I know will definitely never happen is for them to implement the same contextual name recognition system that Andromeda had where if you use the default names for Shepard, characters would call you either John or Jane where appropriate like they do with Scott and Sarah Ryder. Though it would mean getting basically the whole cast back together though and re-voicing a ton of dialog, and you’d have to leave Zaeed’s lines as is because Robin Sachs is dead

They could dial down the lens flair a little, but it's not a deal-breaker or anything

Honest to God, I saw someone discussing that Shamus retrospective today. I kept thinking about cheap narrative devices and how element zero is hard sci-fi for thematically-rich blue space babes and whatever. Real greatest hits moment.
