Mass Effect Legendary Edition remaster trilogy

[lametta]

This replaced resi village as top seller on steam. At least resi is a new game. Dont get why ppl buy a low effort remaster considering the 3 games were avaiable till now. Serve them shiny crap and they ll eat it...

Looked at the forums and some ppl defend it to death and claim that performance issues are the fault of the respective PCs.

How many of these lightning problem screenshots are from people with shitty video cards that have shadows disabled?

ME1 is a 2007 game that was fairly low-spec on release and had fine shadows. If this can't run on any PC still around in 2021 then everyone at bioware needs to be hung.

Ok so reviews are "mostly positive" now (over 900 reviews). "Game over man! Game over!"

After watching some videos, it seems that they really improved ME1's combat.

Are these people fucking blind? What the fuck is going on?

Optimizing games in the year of our lord 2021 is hard, if you don't have access to a NASA supercomputer, don't complain when it looks like shit on your machine.

Emotional investment in product consoomed + nostalgia. Criticism against said product is equated to a personal attack on the consoomer.

Played a bit. Graphics are exactly as they are in the screenshots. That scene with Ashley in the background is as blown out and over lit as all the screenshots. Beyond that, I don't know. I prefer the look of the original, obviously, but it doesn't look horrible in motion. Hopefully someone will mod in shadows again.

Gameplay-wise, they seem to have made it way easier. Whenever I'd play NG on Insanity in the original ME, I'd die multiple times on the first level. I didn't die once on Insanity in ME LE. Kind of sucks. I was hoping for a challenge.

Probably because vanilla ME1 was clunky and annoying.

Possibly. It's way easier to aim now. However, you can also headshot everything through their shields and even use warp through shields, at least on the first level. Never used to be possible. You used to have to wear down their shields before you could do any damage. That Geth Prime leading up to the train used to be really hard, but I destroyed him in like 2 seconds. If I recall, most enemies in ME1 used to have shields, armor, and then health, but now it's just shields and health, and the shields are really weak.

Have mods fixed this yet?

Despair.

I set the brightness to -3 and that helped.

So is it true that you can't punch the reporters anymore in the remastered version?

Imagine putting in time and effort to remove good things from your game.

Nah fake news.



Also is that how the lighting looks or is that just some scrub with minimum settings? It looks like one of those early 2000s games with lighting disabled.

Nope, that is how the lighting actually looks. They added in global lighting or something and it's destroyed the look of nearly all the dialogue scenes basically

Remasters lol.

 

[Larianshill]

Looks like biodrones win again

 

[Padzi]

Btw. people are right. There's something wrong with Shepard's eyes now.
He looks pretty insane in some cutscenes.

 

[Nifft Batuff]

Is it still legal to play the originals?

It's fine though because they totally improved the gameplay

There is only one edition, and it is Legendary, citizen. Consoom your product. And pay for it full price like a good boy.

They have changed Tali's stock photo.

edit:
Since yesterday I've seen it on twitter, reddit, facebook and youtube.
If it's not real then kudos for hard trolling.

 

[Larianshill]

If this is real, it's an improvement. But not by much. She's still essentially a human.

 

[Tytus]

Some no name modder did it better.

 

[Padzi]

Personally I always thought she looks something like this:

 

[Larianshill]

My mind always jumps to this interpretation.
