How To Make Mass Effect Better: Part 2

Analog Addiction Writes: "As a gamer I find myself playing great games, to good games, and sometimes even underwhelming titles; and often I find that what separates the very good games and the great, “I’m going to remember this experience,” type of games are quite often the amount, and quality, of details put into a them. With the pedigree of most major developers and increasing accessibility of capable game engines, designing a shooter with enjoyable mechanics is, at least ostensibly, exceedingly achievable. However, something as seemingly superfluous as a mini-game can elegantly create cohesion between narrative, atmosphere and gameplay that can be invaluable when implemented correctly – which is not nearly as easy as developing partially prepackaged shooting mechanics. I’ve gone over the additions and changes I’d like to see in Mass Effect 4 from a gameplay perspective, but what I feel could really turn the game into a masterpiece are well done mini-games and a wealth of little details.

I expected nothing and I'm still disappointed

Like with Fallout, it's starting to feel studios are using TV / Film adaptations when they have no game info to talk about.

I feel the same way.

I mean, how difficult would it be for them to release SOMETHING of substance? Another short trailer? A couple of proper hints? A short story set during the original trilogy, but focused on fringe characters?

Hopefully they're working so hard on the game that they don't have time. But still, with every passing year and so little to show, the franchise will be slipping further and further from people's minds.

Yeah agree it's almost a cop out since Dev times are 5 to 10 years just throw out a few seasons instead you get them done in a year

I still haven’t beat Andromeda. I am waiting for a lull of good games in my backlog

P_Bomb211d ago

So the TV show will take place after the OG trilogy. I wonder which ending they’ll use?

Should’ve just posted a picture of an Elcor saying “regretfully, we have nothing to share.”

Good games but no Phantasy Star?

merlox1106d ago

ES3 set things off, it's a shame they got greedy and decided to cut corners so the executives could get huge pay days.
