Zaeed is a fighter, not a lover.
Fixed that for truth.
Bethesda never gave us a Zaeed romance, imagine how awsome that would have of been:

Shepard: "Zaeed honey, let's cuddle!"
Zaeed: "The last time I held someone was on a mission 2 years ago. He had stepped on a mine, deperately trying to keep his guts from falling out. His blood turned the pouring rain into a red river. A grown hardened man crying for his mommy, while I arranged his severed limbs to make him resemble a human being again. And I held him until he had coughed every last drop of blood from his now lifeless body...."
Shepard: :?:(:cry: ... "I should go."

On the other hand, maybe it was better they didn't... :hahano:

LE looks like complete ass

More like Snoop Dog's avatar looks like complete ass...I'd like to hear him explain why a "hardcore" black rapper gets off playing a pale, shorthaired woman from the Isle of Lesbos.

A true roleplayer Codexian?

I am playing ME remaster now, after many many years since I played it last time (I guess it was when Citadel DLC released). And what I saw now is how much lore was butchered somewhere between first and second installment of series. Retcons like thermal clips for weapons (do ship guns also were switched to retractable heat sinks usage or just hand guns? Anyway it seem stupid), shields helping to negate melee attacks, geth heretics. A lot of inconsistencies within writings (Samara says she know only 3 Ardat-Yakshi, but there is obviously more - even in-game Codex says it is 1% of all asari. But then it is a great secret and next moment random turian in Citadel cafe mentions them) and so on. I don't mind more action-oriented gameplay, because ME was shooter from the beginner. But writing fails are so frustrating that you do not need even to reach end of trilogy to get disappointed in how series goes total decline.

So, I bought game pass and out of curiosity I installed Mass Effect Legendary Edition. I kinda feel nostalgic, so maybe someone can talk me out of playing it again.

%100 them all!

I have over 300 hours in ME3 alone. And 500 hours on the clock overall for the whole trilogy. I don't want to do it again.

Mass Effect 3 is shit.

I KNOW, RIGHT?!

Open a bottle of wine, go on youtube and watch a few favorite scenes, then shlick or whatever.

I decided to input my 12 year old face code into ME:LE character creator and this was the result. Behold Codexa Shepard. (yeah, it doesn't work at all)

And this how she is suppose to look like. (This is a screenshot from 2010.) I had to re-do her since the code was not working.

Go with the prestigious vanguard build full renegade baby

Vanguard has godawful cutscenes in ME3. For example a chase sequence where Kai Leng gets away, except in gameplay you were ramming his ass twice a second. Or an action sequence where you character pulls a pistol out of his ass and misses Kai Leng instead of ramming him off his taxi into meat paste. Or a sequence where Kai Leng kills the...

I'm starting to see a pattern there.

Truly the best representation of what current year Mass Effect protagonist should look like. Black, female and judging by the face expression mentally retarded.

I know that the face importing between the various games was messed up, and I'm glad this proud tradition carried over to the Legendary Edition as well. Good job, Bioware.

Ok, whatever. I think I nailed it.
