All I want is for them to upgrade the combat in 1. They could leave the rest of the series untouched if they do that. ME1 has a special feel to it. It's the singular ME game made without EA and I love that about it. The one and only thing I'd change is the inventory system. Not being able to store things is problematic but could be okay if we didn't max out on omni-gel, too. When I do a trilogy run (still doing them, on ME3 right now though have already created my new ME1 Adept for my next run), I look at the Reaper encounter as a life changing experience for Shepard and Co. Sure, the batarians were a pain, but they weren't going to wipe us off the map. Just wasn't happening. Reapers, though, mean seriously upping our game. Shepard took it serious at the end of ME1 about preparing for the arrival of the Reapers and amped up the combat. Hence, we get "improved" combat going forward. Tbh, I wouldn't change much. ME1 had a charm to it lost in the games that followed. I don't mean they were worse but different. I kind of like it. They should fix the AMD glitch, though, and unlock bi Kaidan since the voice dialogue is there. (For bi Ash, too, if the mod is anything to go by.) All those little things they had left locked up can be unlocked. |

So even if a remaster came out, I would still probably be using saves from my original ME1 runs and went into 2 and 3 with those if possible. The ME1 combat is odd. I can't say it has bad controls since they aren't. Just the whole thing...lacks punch. Enemies don't really react to being hit, the sound effect are...oddly toothless, damaging combat powers outside of maybe Carnage don't really feel like they do anything (I know they do, but they don't feel that way), outside of weapon skill and damage/rate of fire there isn't really a difference in weapon behavior... I love ME1, but it's despite the gameplay, not thanks to it, and I wish I could play it again, but I just can't handle its combat anymore. |

Vallerie : Maybe because I'm more story focused I can bypass the combat issues. Plus, with the same sex romance mod installed, I can't NOT play ME1 and romance Kaidan. It's physically impossible.

Don't take me wrong, story is still the most important thing to me in a game. Just over time, I found that well designed gameplay can enhance not completely well written story, where the whole game turns into experiemce rather than 2 separate parts, and not all that great gameplay can seriously drag the whole thing down, sometimes right away, sometimes during repeat playthroughs. |

I love ME1, but it's despite the gameplay, not thanks to it, and I wish I could play it again, but I just can't handle its combat anymore. IMO the issue with the combat was actually the leveling system. Each ability had a fuck ton of levels to them so each point you added to it was a tiny improvement. If you compare a power at the start of the game to what it is like by the time you'd level'd it, there is a huge difference, but you get there in such tiny incremental parts that you never get this feeling of 'fuck, yeah I'm awesome' That and the pain in the arse inventory are my biggest ME1 issues and ME2 basically fixed those problems. |

It'd just be nice if I had a romance option in mass effect 1 and 2...forever alone runs of the first 2 games has kind of lost it's appeal for me. Mass Effect 3 is still fun though.

Mass Effect 3 is still fun though. this is true, I only did two runs (official romance and imported romance), and seriously was a pain roleplaying Shepard and dodging all the women's advances... and I dont like characters like male Shepard when they are straight, too heteronormative, too male hero archetype, and sadly as much as I headcanon'd in ME1/ME2, it was impossible to feel like Shepard was gay for me. Next runs I want to do femShep x Liara, and femShep x Garrus, and I want to try this mod after those. But I cant find the mod for ME3? dmc1001 if you import the romance it would be like the imported romance with the console trick isnt it? that means unvoiced lines  |

ME3 certainly acknowledges the relationship in a fully voiced way in ME3 up to a point (somewhere in the hospital, but unvoiced) - then forgets and you basically "start over" with Kaidan at Apollo's. But, weirdly, you do get to see Shepard staring at Kaidan's butt when they have a chat before he rejoins the Normandy, which only happens with imported romance (even with gender swap). If you use PC and get the same-sex mod, there is a real, fully voiced romance in ME1. ME2 has no changes (yet, but maybe some day) but there was never anything unvoiced there. ME3 has an unreleased mod I'm using that has had a lot of changes and not a damn thing is unvoiced - which should tell you something. With the mod, game will continue to acknowledge the romance, even at Apollo's and just before Cronus. |

Davrin's boobs: If the mod isn't officially released for ME3 by the time you get through ME1 and ME2, I'll see what I can do. I have it, obviously, but I think I'm a tester who has been a little lax. Getting back to ME3 right now!

I will be asking you for help  |

When the author of the mod posted it was released (ME1), I jumped at the chance, showed enthusiasm, gave feedback and mentioned I was promoting it here. (Plus, in my playthroughs, the stuff that comes out of it gets mentioned in "What did you do today...?") When he brought up an ME3 mod, he asked me for save game files from specific points in the game. In return, when he'd done some work on it, he gave me the mod. Not entirely sure he's done but he needs feedback. |

Nah, I'm going to be greedy, I won't buy a remastered version unless there's new content, like adding the dialogue that was recorded but not animated into the final game, Zaeed's convo about Vido needs to be included. Things that I'd love to see: Getting Kimberly and Mark/Jennifer in to record that unused convo about the afterlife And I'd love BW forever if they unbimbofied Ash in a remastered version I don't know if I'd buy a remaster of the trilogy anyway, I've pretty much moved on from the series. The ME Trilogy is one of those games I replay on a regular bases, like FF7 or FF10. I'd love to be able to play it on my PS4 and finally retire my Xbox 360. I have been hoping Microsoft gives me a few game reasons to buy the XboxOneX so I'd at least have the backwards compatibility but so far it seems to be the 'most powerful console in the world' with nothing to play on it. I've been thinking about a console but I'm going to get a PS since XBox has far less exclusive games than PS (if someone plays on PC they're extremely likely to still be playing the game on something Microsoft related) Vallerie : Maybe because I'm more story focused I can bypass the combat issues.

Oh and is anyone else irked that Lumpy interpreted 'foot locker' to mean 'you can have one of the unoccupied rooms'? |

turianlannister: Same-sex Ashley content is present with ME1 and ME3 mods. (Well, will be with ME3 once it's released.) I haven't played them because I'm stuck on mShenko but I'm assured it's present. ME1 mod is available on NexusMods. You do have to CHOOSE the romance. Mod makes sure there's no ninjamancing so you can have the romance you want.

So I have been using the website (N7 HQ) to get my war readiness up. I've got all sections at 91.63 % now. I don't even know if I'll play Mass Effect 3 again soon or not, but for some reason I like having the war readiness high. It's like a game of it's own.  |

A while back I would have thought that was strange, but now that I want to romance default Scott, I totally understand.  |

That would be pretty hot! But my shepard would probably only do it if Kaidan approved it as a threesome situation, cause kaidan is everything to my sheps. hehe

So I just started a new run of Mass Effect 3. I am playing as an engineer. It's a great class, but it doesn't have a great way to deal with guardian's shields, so I picked lash as my bonus power. It is probably an odd choice, but it is a rather fun power to use. It has a really short cooldown so it can be quite amusing in battle!

I love lash! I randomly started playing an old, unfinished ME3 run of Jeff Shepard. He was pure Renegade in ME1/2 (except he was created for ME3, so this was done through Genesis 2). He killed Wrex on Virmire, Ash died on Virmire, the Council was sacrificed, never recruited Kasumi or Zaeed, only Tali's loyalty mission was done, everyone died on suicide mission except Tali and Garrus. Then, after six months locked up, he decides to be good. He's almost pure Paragon in ME3 (except he ordered a hit on the Reaper on Rannoch as it was talking to him and then after Tali stabbed Legion he shot him three times - gave me more Renegade points than you'd expect). Romancing Kaidan, of course. At the point in the game where I'm about to talk with the asari councilor about something that can help the war effort.

thank you, now I understand what's happening, it's the same modder than ME1 mod I assume
