Mass Effect General - /meg/

>BIOWARE ANIMATION QUALITY

Isn't there even an atmosphere encounter on the Citadel in ME3 where an Asari is cheating on her partner while she's off being a commando

the other way round, the human is cheating while the asari isn't comitted

Why do all Salarians come with a handlebar on their shirts?

Maybe it's a bone?

The logistics of fitting that into the uniforms they wear is headache-inducing.

it doesn't work that way, you'd have to sew the clothes around it then.

their pictures in the artbooks clearly depict them without such a bone.

>tfw can't call upon the factions you united to help you in 3's final mission like you could in Dragon Age
Why couldn't they just let us summon some friendly troopers or something? They obviously had the AI from the Citadel DLC.

>the untold swarms of the space-bugs that overwhelmed galactic civilization, sent a few worker drones to help with the newly discovered, vitally important prothean device.

It will probably depress you more to know that they wanted to do that but couldn't get it to work. It was planned to have you assign various assets to Hammer and Shield suicide mission style.

...

...

good plot device or the greatest plot device?

More like the greatest bullshit in the history

Good.

Also, your file name is in error, because it is unambiguously not a deus ex machine.

I'm starved enough for good fluff that I'll take it.

>tfw can't watch old movies with Tali while cuddling
>tfw don't see Tali's flirty texts
>tfw no spooning Tali

Wouldn't have had a problem with it if it was discovered in ME1 desu.

...

It would have been way better if ME2's plot was about discovering and salvaging this thing's schematics. It being introduced at the very beginning of ME3 was BS.

inb4 the m-muh headcanon fag shows up because he still can't keep suggestions, speculations and actual headcanon apart

It seem, many people enjoy Mass Effect 3 coop multiplayer. I can't see from videos on YouTube, what is good about it (shit gunplay, spammy autoaim abilities..).
Can somebody explain, why they think it is good?

I just play as a pink krogan and headbutt everything

fun and rewarding horde gameplay, has depth and variety (plenty of non-basic mechanics to learn and master) and a progression system that is fairly balanced so it's not microtransaction fuckery

Best girl

Oops, wrong pic

I don't see any girl

ffs wrong again

Objectively correct.

muh nig

whew

remove quarian

...

I've decided it's the hair that pissed me off the most about the Canon quarian design. Also what happened to all those cybernetics the Quarians were said to have? Or Talis robot arm

>blue
>not green
SHIT FUCKING TASTE CONFIRMED

Idk about you guys but I kinda like Jack

I guess those lines on her skin were supposed to represent the cybernetics. Not exactly a surprise; cybernetics in ME mostly aren't visible. Shepard is 30% cybernetic for example but it's never visible unless he's Renegade.

What robot arm? I figured that was just an arm-brace in the first game to help Tali function, since that arm got riddled with bullets and polonium (iirc she doesn't have that in the prequel comic?). She doesn't have it in the second or third games.

Would've been interesting sidequest to get her out of narcotics and shit.

I really love fanworks of Tali and Shep enjoying Rannoch post-war.

also an acceptable answer though still objectively sub-optimal/

is she addicted to narcotics?

No reason she wouldn't be. After the shit she's been through and the way she talks about them there no way she'd leave that stuff. This is lazy writing at it's finest.

In me2 she said she's taken them but I don't think she's an addict. cause she said it like it was just in a casual way.

The shit they put her through? Of course she's going to handle that like no big deal after that.

Well there ya go. She's a functional addict with the only cure being Shep dick.

Shit. Why do I keep coming back to this?

Gotta love Jack

Is there any way to make the progression in the ME3 multiplayer less grindy?

>multiple anons have said "best girl"
>it was not pic related

It's like you enjoy hideous women, who you can't order to do stealth takedowns for you

She's objectively the best on every level

You sure this won't get me banned?

She was up to the point she turned out to be Jacobmancer

Worked for me. I did it over a year ago and I can still play.

Neat, time to find that .bin file, thanks user

>get an itch to play ME-trilogy before Andromeda
>try to buy it
>Origin doesn't work
>restart Origin
>it still doesn't work
FOR THE FUCKS SAKE EA!

Yay. 5 hours of gameplay, that is popular nowadays.

...

People ready for over 5 minutes of gameplay today!?

no because the story will still be awful

>5 minutes of walking and cutscenes
Sure

>Bioware is going to fuck up their 5th game in a row

She probably would have fucked him while viewing a sextape of her and Keiji in her vr thing tbqh

"romances" are the shittiest parts of these games and you have shit taste for talking about that garbage for years on end

Actually they're very good

kek

How do you go from this...

...to THIS???

You try taking a rocket to the face

...fire the original writing team?

PB already has more convincing expressive facial animations than anything in the previous three games

What was this expression trying to convey?

>how do you go from a terrible game engine with mediocre graphical quality to a vastly superior game engine with vastly superior graphics

i think its licensing but i cant be sure

>dude

/meg/ has become cancer general with the Jack and Tali spam.
I dont even read the posts anymore because its just dumb waifuposting.
Must be the worst general on this board, just bin it already.

It's Liam so yeah, dude

>tfw just want to explore space and settle disputes in the galaxy
>HAHA WOO YOU CAN FUCK EVERYONE ON YOUR SHIP HAHA, MAKE SURE NEVER TO PICK NICE CONVERSATION OPTIONS SO YOU'LL AVOID TRYING TO FUCK EVERY PERSON ABOARD

Do people seriously play mass effect for the tacked on romance shit?

...

are you honestly trying to imply that unreal 3 engine is better than frostbite 3?

because if so, than your picture is appropriate

Has there been a lot of news since N7 day? I haven't been keeping up with things

this frostbite meme has to end
nobody but dice knows how to make games with it
every other studio produces complete shit with it

Doesn't change the fact that no matter how bad you are with the engine it is still graphically superior

I mean bioware is gonna have s hit animations regardless of what engine they use, but the shit animations from them on frostbite is still gonna look better than on UE3

ah, your are one of those graphic whores
neck yourself

graphics are literally 90% of a video game

here is your (You)
now fuck off

Thanks, but you know i'm right which is killing you on the inside

sure, whatever kid

>kid

I bet your first game was battlefield 3 or some call of duty game giving your low standards

How long until that "gameplay" video? I just came back from the work and I'm fucking tired.

Anyways good day, /meg/. Hope you are all well.

She got shot in the gut or leg in the comic

I mean you can bet all day long but I wouldn't bet anything of value
