Zagadka Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Yea, old school Bioware games were some of the absolute best. Â Solasta launched out of Early Access. Debating if I want to go right into ME 2 and 3, or take a break and play Solasta. Hm. Well, Solasta is still having features added, might just wait. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Still Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Finished ME1 today (Legendary Edition). The Mako parts are mostly pretty boring and repetitive, and the game really shows its age even with the improved visuals when you're going through the side missions and the same handful of bland interior spaces recycled for all of them. The story missions are still excellently designed and the dialog is great, though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Zagadka Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Finished ME1, got disappointed that I missed some achievements because I didn't romance anyone (Kaidan and Liara just aren't my cup of tea anyway). Meh. On to ME2. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Meh. On to ME2 Playing as a paragon or a renegade?  I love some of the renegade moments in the first game... And they don't feel contrived either. They smashed it out of the park with that game. Me2 is cool too... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I was starting to get iffy grinding out the side quests, but kicking back into the story makes it all worth it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Still Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 I just found out today you can use the boosters to accelerate the Mako. Just wish I'd figured that out before finishing the game... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nice! Yeh the side quests are a bit grindy at times for sure, for all the epic story telling in that game the side quests do feel a bit lackluster, though I think a lot of this is the limitations of the hardware at the time. I hope you did the kick ass moon mission with the rogue AI! That's one of my faves I think....

Just wish I'd figured that out before finishing the game... lol, tragic.  The frustrating thing to me is that on PC, Mako boost is shift, jump is space. On foot, space is run. Whenever I switch, I keep hitting the wrong key.  Also, space being skip dialog and also selecting the next option has resulted in me accidentally selecting the wrong prompt several times. Which is annoying.   2 minutes ago, Samsquanch said: Nice! Yeh the side quests are a bit grindy at times for sure, for all the epic story telling in that game the side quests do feel a bit lackluster, though I think a lot of this is the limitations of the hardware at the time. I hope you did the kick ass moon mission with the rogue AI! That's one of my faves I think.... Yes, it definitely shows its age. At the time, it was amazing. Now... well, we've advanced. But this was one of my problems with Andromeda, the enjoyable parts of ME were the story, drama, companions, etc, not more running around plants shooting.  I did every. Single. Side quest. As always. And this has all of the DLC, so it is a lot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nope, I collected everything.  Their failure with Andromeda was like Bethesda's failure with Fallout 76. They completely misunderstood what people liked the game for and tried to tap into another genre using the worst parts of the game. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They missed that people liked New Vegas most, and that was purely for the environment, story, characters, etc... then they release a live service game with no NPCs or story and the same really horrible shooter mechanics. Yes, people wanted multiplayer, but we meant with a friend or two exploring the story and world, not shared world free for all with no story...  I definitely learned not to pre-order anything. There is absolutely no need these days when everything is digitally available instantly.  The last game I pre-ordered was The Outer Worlds, which was worth it. Obsidian is one developer I trust. I almost pre-ordered Cyberpunk, glad I didn't. I'm not convinced Bethesda will pull off Elder Scrolls 6. They'll put in microtransactions, multiplayer, and crap probably.

Still Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 I actually thought Outer Worlds wasn't that good of a game. The dialog and characters were good, but the terrible combat and "both sides" garbage made me drop it. Good thing it was on Game Pass. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They have full permission from Bethesda and now MS. Called Skyblivion and Skywind. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's cool... Hope they still get released as free mods, but I'd happily pay... Yep, they're still free. Have to own Skyrim and Oblivion+ DLC on Steam.  Spoiler Skyblivion will be 100% FREE, but in order to play, we require our users to own both Skyrim and Oblivion including the DLC listed below, without these requirements our installer will not install the mod. Oblivion DLC Knights of the Nine Shivering Isles All of Oblivion’s minor DLC will also be supported, but these are not required to install Skyblivion.  I like promoting their project everywhere, because Skyrim reached a broad audience, and a lot of those people were never exposed to Morrowind and Oblivion back in the day, but I think they would really enjoy them with modern touches and accessibility.  I would *happily* pay a bit for these projects, too.  The modding community for Skyrim is just excellent. Skyrim + mods is so much more fantastic than the base, and they do it for free... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
