Sadness and disappointment.

Elevators, Walking, Talking and Repetitive fighting.

that's a gay look right there.

also, long and boring planet exploration. surveying isn't bad, but when you have to land, the map is big enough to take a few minutes to get from one edge to the other.

Elevators and boredom.

Disappointment.

Unless you play as Tyrone Shepard, in which case you can expect a high concentration of awesome.

A Magical Journey(TM)

>mass erect

For the redshirt to die.

Dialogue choices that don't fit the actual dialogue
Sidequests that are all the same, literally
Re-used environments
Elevators
Combat that isn't particularly 'fun'
Weapons that handle and look the same
A couple of memorable environments
Good main story

All in all, I think you should just go for the main story because that's all that's worth anything. You can run the citadel dry of sidequests but actually landing on planets and exploring them is a chore.

Good when you're not in the Mako.

Fucking terrible when you are in the Mako. Basically everyone's "real" complaints with the game have to do with sections of the game that involve the Mako.

Wow you guys are fucking ridiculous

Dont make him not want to play just because you decided to spend 10 hours exploring empty planets

Game has a good story, combat is fine and the dialogue is reasonably good

>>44426074
that and having to go to the hangar to equip your team in the Normandy. I hope they have a better system in place.

>>44426074
This

That fucking ice planet and forgetting to save once I got to the facility and having to redo the Mako section

HNNNNNNGGG

A liberal shitfest with alien sex and female torture

>>44425884

Gameplay was awesome, graphics are nice, story is just OK for a Bioware game, but the whole experience feels somewhat lacking in the end. Cool finale, though.

All in all a good game worthy of your time if you're into Bioware games. If not, then it's at least a rent.

It's ridiculous how the fucking retarded half of /v/ hates on Mass Effect.

See here for a good thread in progress:
>>44423849

This shit rules

>>44426105
well, the story is really good, as another anon has already pointed out, but if somebody told you it's a 3PS/RPG, you'll probably spend the time and explore and do the side quests. While they're not all bad, some are involved. I do like some of the side quests myself, though. especially that AI one.

>>44426220

PLUS, mass effect 2 is around the corner, with improved story AND gameplay

go for it

Just did the sidequest where you find Admiral Kohoku's body. Felt sad man.

>Mass Effect
>Good story
/v/ confirmed for mentally handicapped.

where is the screenshots folder?
i'd much rather have a folder then prntscreen and paint everything

>>44426257

You confirmed for unimaginative faggot. It's like a 7/10 sci-fi short story from the 70's, which is pretty fucking good in my book.

don't do any of the sidequests other than the DLC and maybe the rebel special forces one

>>44426257
Opinions and assholes. /v/ is full of them.

>>44426332

No, he should do Kohoku's quest, too.

>>44426257
Depends on what you compare it with. It doesn't come close to Arcanum/Bloodlines/PST/The Witcher but it sure as hell beats Dragon Age.

>>44426406
is that where you find a bunch of marines get attacked by the wurm?

>>44426315
>>44426336
>Get called out on how Mass Effect is essentially a crap Tom Clancy novel in space.
>Throw insults to cement idea that plot is only liked by manchildren.
Good job.

>>44426437

Yeah, and it opens up a new quest and shit.

Cerberus is going to be in ME2, so it's probably important.

I want to say that I dislike the game, but I've been thinking that it was a huge mistake to go to Noveria first. Is it just that one planet where all the awful shit in the game is concentrated?

>>44426412

Personally I think The Witcher had a shit story.

What is this thing called again... oppinuns or something...

>>44426463
oh, yeah. i'm on my way to Maroon Sea or some shit to investigate a couple of things.

>>44426451
I like your jump to conclusions mat.

>>44426412
Apples and oranges

>>44426536

apples > oranges

fact

>>44426501
this is where the shit gets real

>>44426570
dammit. i guess i should get on that then.

>>44426561
What the fuck I cant believe people still like apples after all the shit they did to their fans.

Fucking pathetic. Apples serve you up a big steamy pile of shit and you guys just dig right in.

I'm an orange man, through and through.

>>44426561

>>44426635

enjoy your bowel problems orange fag

>>44426492
I suppose. In general I enjoy human relations more than scripted events.

It's not a particularly good RPG. Nor is it an amazing 3rd person shooter.

But oddly enough it comes together quite well.

>>44427191

>It's not a particularly good RPG.

Sadly, it's the best to come out since Morrowind. Certainly better than anything anyone shat out since 2003.

Are you some kind of goth teen piece of shit? VtmB was terrible.

>>44427610
>Implying VTM:B had worse writing than Mass Effect.
LoLno. At least Troika had some semblance of decent writing, Bioware seems to hire chimps.

>>44427695
>Implying Bioware has bad writers

>>44427610
>Implying that VTMB was bad

Implying... ah fuck it.

VTMB and Morrowind are must plays.

why? why? why?
i tried playing VtmB 3 fucking times, and everytime i got bored of that shit so fast it was incredible. The only part i enjoyed somewhat was the "haunted hotel", but the rest was just horrible. seriously. what is so goddamn awesome about that game?

>>44428183

Same here, you're not alone buddy

>>44428183
but its like, VAMPIIIRES, maan, and you can be a cool goth vampire chick who sucks blood! MUST PLAY!
