Mass Effect 3 will be difficult

NeoGaf writes "During the interview with CHIEF (A Belgian/Flemish games magazine), Hudson noted "Normal is the new Veteran". Enemies in ME3 use expanded tactics to defeat players. For instance, they'll try flanking them or calling in reinforcements.

Hudson also announced that the team Commander Shepard assembled during ME2 has fallen apart by the time of ME3. On top of that, Shepard is now fighting the pro-human Cerberus, the organisation he was working for in ME2. One character Shepard comes into contact with due to this struggle is Kai Leng, an assassin for hire with a dislike for aliens. He was featured earlier in Mass Effect: Retribution, the third book about the Mass Effect-universe. Another character that makes an appearance is James Sanders, a muscular man that looks like "an American Football-player on a steroid diet", according to CHIEF.

In this new adventure, Shepard will travel to Rannoch, the homeworld of the Quarian species. The Quarians were driven from their home by the Geth, a robotic species. Apart from that, Shepard will also find himself on the homeworlds of the Turians and the Salarians. Earth will also be visited during the game, and will be attacked by the Reapers, an enemy Shepard has been fighting since the first game.

Another change is that the weapons in ME3 feel a lot different from eachother. Players can add scopes, barrels and other attachments to their weapons. There'll also be more biotic powers available. According to Hudson, BioWare wants to use these to both meet the demands of RPG-fans and keeping the same intensity in action. Finally, Hudson tells us this is not the final game in the Mass Effect-universe, but it is the final game in which Commander Shepard is the main role. Hudson states his story is "over, told and done. We don't need to mess with it anymore."

I agree man the only game i can think of so far that has really gave me a challenge was MK that last boss fight is a pain in the ass.

TheTwelve5543d ago

Yeah, agreed. ME2 isn't difficult for me even on the hardest setting, first time playthrough.

slavish35543d ago

i love hard games. Takes longer to bet and i get the most out of my money

The_Nameless_One5543d ago

I have a feeling Dark Souls will make ME3 look like a breeze.LOL

Anyways, I hope they improve the team's AI because playing ME2 on insanity was just a pain in the a$$.

BeastlyRig5543d ago (Edited 5543d ago )

The witcher 2 will take on demon souls difficulty wise!

Hardcore is if you die once it's over! But for the those who beat the game without dying get a prize!

But the devs did say hardcore mode is actually inspired by them playing & enjoying demon souls..

never played demon souls but my guess is that it's good...

The_Nameless_One5543d ago

Demon's Souls is awesome. It's the only game I kept playing long after I platinum[ed] it.

PS: I wish people would write an explanations when they disagree with you.

I've got a feeling it won't be THAT hard, I think Bioware are partly hyping new AI here. Besides, if it is better AI that makes the game harder, all the better. It's when games become cheap for the sake of 'harder' difficulties that it becomes frustrating

Bro missing companions: Legion, Grunt, Samara/Morinth, Javik, EDI

anast564d ago

Legion, Zaeed, and Jack are my favorites.

RiseNShine564d ago

To think that Bioware at some point was capable of doing games like this, you see those characters and remember them like good old friends, and now check ME Andromeda, Anthem, Veilguard etc and wonder what the hell happened.

anast564d ago

They lost too much talent.

IAMRealHooman564d ago

some in andromeda are decent, I agree with peebee and Vetra being good companions. Except Liam he's trash tier

anast563d ago

Liam lol I can't stand that dude.

IAMRealHooman563d ago

Based on one narratively fitting ending in Mass Effect 3, Prothean squadmate Javik is highly unlikely to return in the next Mass Effect game.

He was one of my least favorite characters. I wish they would have done the Proths different.
