that looks awful

Rather have a good story than hallway simulator 2010

I don't understand people who make these kinds of animations and presents them in a proud manner. Nothing about this is good, its fucking terrible. Tired of seeing this low quality garbage all over /gif/ when I'm trying to yank it

This is how I feel about ME 2.

I miss Mordin.

Mordin, Garrus, Grunt, Wrex and Legion are top tier. Everyone else is terrible. Zaeed gets an honorable mention though.

Get a load of these high end fuckers kek

I did like everything about the Suicide Mission up until the Human Reaper though.

>posts objectively poor animation by common standards
>such a fucking cretin that a common standard is viewed as high end

>tfw you can't fug legion

>know a war with the reapers is coming
>even a single reaper decimated a massive portion of the combined citadel species' military fleets
>and we'll be fighting thousands
>collector base provides tons of reaper tech to examine and reverse engineer, find ways to beat reapers
>decide to keep the base because destroying it would be fucking insane
>somehow this is a renegade choice
>everyone is mad at you for it, even the Cerberus squad members
The fuck?

>Muh illusive man can't be trusted

mass effect 2 literally feels like you're playing a 70's space opera

I know man, I hate going to the sfm threads and seeing it loaded with poorly done horse and futa shit. Really pisses me off

ME1 and 2 are both good. Flawed, yes, but the high points in both are some of best that games have to offer.

The biggest crime of ME3 is destroying such a promising setting.

Isn't that kinda the point? Bioware tried to make it "the Star Wars of videogames"

self taught amateurs, there's probably very few professional animators making sfm porn

Is that a good thing or a bad thing

I'm saying it's a good thing. It's an unrivaled atmosphere that neither of the other 3 entries came even close to capturing. Mass effect 3 was too modern and had too much stupid shit, Mass effect 1 kind of captured the vibe but idk it just doesn't feel like there's as much adventure. Andromeda is, ofcourse, andromeda.

...

ME3 was actually very solid up until you land on earth again then it becomes more and more exponentially retarded culminating peak retardation at the teleporting beam

the DLC sort of makes up for that part but there is no way to reverse the shitty star child ending
>oh I know how about we add an ending that's just a step down from literally giving players the middle finger
>that's definitely what they want right now

ME3 would've been a fuck ton better had they not focused so much on humanity. I mean why did the final battle HAVE to be on earth? It doesn't even make fucking sense, the reapers move the citadel above earth for whatever reason and have their entire force gathered in its vicinity. The last 2 games never made earth a direct plot point, it was mentioned yes but wasn't given a shit ton of focus like Me3.

Then andromeda fucked it up too with the whole "humans have to go out and do everything" niche

A big chunk of the reasons why Reapers started becoming more Saturday Morning Villains is when Harbinger was dead-set autistic for SHEPARD
