LAG - "To an outsider, picking 10 of the best characters from a 2-game series may seem trivial. Ask any Mass Effect veteran however, and they will tell you otherwise. The sheer amount of well developed characters in the Mass Effect series makes us wonder, does Mass Effect have the “best” characters in gaming? While the question will lead to opinionated answers, the fact that the question is often asked is testament enough to the quality of those very characters. Without further ado, I give you LAG’s Top 10 Mass Effect characters."
Bioware writes: "Like you, we’ve heard the rumors lately. You’ve made it clear you care deeply about what’s next. So let’s start by setting the record straight: the next Mass Effect game is in development, and EA and BioWare remain committed to telling more stories in this universe."
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
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.”
One of the best things about the Mas Effect series is the companions you meet along the way. So here is a tier list of all the companions from Mass Effect!
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.
some in andromeda are decent, I agree with peebee and Vetra being good companions. Except Liam he's trash tier
it's like bitch but your shirt back on, your not blue or spikey get away from me
RPGs are often huge, sprawling endeavours. With limited playtime, we have to choose wisely, so here's the best western RPGs available today.
"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!
How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?
1 - Alpha Protocol - Now on GOG
2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera
And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden
Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.
Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.
Pity.
My personal List:
1) Tali'zorah - Makes me squirm for joy every second on screen. :)
2) Joker - Who couldnt love his Personality? Total BA :D
3) Kasumi - See Tali
Maby i need more life, but when a game makes me get emotional its the greatest thing in the world.
It's all about Liara T'soni for me. The fact that she was so distant towards Shepherd in ME2, was a real emotional disappointment for the chatacter, and very well done. It also lead to one of the best missions in the whole game - the shadow broker.
Legion also ranks up there because of the way he is introduced and how he is humanised.
And who would'nt love the ultimate emo-psycho-babe Jack. I'd let her 'reave' me anyday :0)
