![]() ![]() I'm sure the developers could find a more believable reason to track down Saren, but anyway, i am nitpicking here. This one simple act of his, simply created the entire Mass Effect story arc, involving Shepard. If that soldier wasn't there, there was no way that Shepard would find out about Saren. As such he was able to hide from the Geth (who along with Sovereign have super advanced tech and as such would be most likely able to id everyone in the colony) when everyone else got wiped out AND he happened to stand on the best spot to listen when Saren killed Nihlus. ![]() For example ((SPOILER IN THE NEXT PARAGRAPH)) you originally learn about Saren because of a lazy soldier who was sleeping behind the crates before the Eden Prime attack started. In this game your choices matter deeply.ĥ/5 for characters, direction & impact What i consider a negative aspect of the nearly perfect plot is that it sometimes feels overly dramatic, like it is leading you to the next part by very unlikely scenarios. This game has got me interested in science and technology and i now have a Bachelor's degree in computer science. In fact it's all taken from real life and you can use it to expand your own knowledge. Everything seems so real and likely to occur in real life, in the future. Never again have i felt like i wanted to read inside a game (i was never interested in books and the lore in Skyrim, or Oblivion, but that's partly because i prefer sci-fi to fantasy). I found myself reading and listening to everything in the Codex because i wanted to learn as much as i could about this amazing world. This level of realism is in part attributed to the perfect voice-acting and lipsync of all characters and to the vast lore that has been meticulously crafted for each location the plot takes place in the universe.ĥ+++/5 for the lore & story (best one EVER in a video game) To learn more about the overwhelming new amounts of information on this universe you can can visit the Codex menu which gets automatically updated with new entries as you progress through the game. Depending on species, race, gender, personality everyone feels totally different, in fact each one is unique. You will love meeting new squad members and talking to NPCs everywhere. ![]() Character development is off the chart, and second to none (except the sequel Mass Effect 2). Bioware has made all players interactions with NPCs so realistic, due to its cinematic design to conversations. You will explore and make decisions that will shape the future of a planet, or colony, in ways you cannot begin to fathom (play all 3 games and all DLCs to find out how deep the rabbit hole goes save games carry over to the ME2 and ME3). It's not just minor or secondary objectives, you actually get a say on many major outcomes of the game. If there's a game in which you feel that your choices do matter it is this one. ![]() Will he manage to succeed and how will his choices affect the future of the galaxy? The player decides how the plot will unfold. It always seems as though Saren is one step ahead of him though. In order to accomplish his mission he must assemble a team of diverse & talented individuals, each one experts in their fields and essential to the mission, scour planets to acquire intelligence, form alliances or go to war. He plans to find and activate the Conduit which will allow Sovereign to signal the return of the Reapers, an enigmatic civilization which recycles all life in the galaxy every 50,000 years. Saren the principal antagonist, a member of an elite, peacekeeping squad called the Spectres has gone rogue, by siding with the Geth. The colony has already attracted the Geth, a synthetic race who have formed an alliance with what they consider their God and have seized control of the colony. It turns out that this mission isn't that simple after all. Shepard is called on a mission to salvage an unearthed Prothean beacon uncovered at the remote human colony of Eden Prime. You are commander Shepard, a war hero, or a sole survivor or a ruthless & notorious cutthroat who knows how to get the job done. ![]()
