Sorry everyone but Sonic Chronicles has DA Origins code, so you all have to return your bioware cards if you haven't played it or finish it  : I've been meaning to ask, what is it about that game that made it so horrible? just curious. haha |

And ultimately since its portable, its pretty limited to what Bioware can do with it. |

An action rpg would have been better for sonic most likely. Too bad it didn't get a good enough reception. |

Sonic is being doing okay now with Mania and Forces. Forces sold pretty well too. Review wise it may not do so hot but still has a pretty good niche community that supports it and still sells really well with kids. During Sonic Boom moment yeah it had a really rough spot but I think sale wise that and Lost World were screwed because they were exclusives to a console underperforming a ton: the Wii U. |

It's split between the 2d and 3d side now. Kinda like the Roman Empire lol. |

Bringing this one back from the grave because it's been 6 years since I made this one and... my ranking has changed A LOT and I played all the Dragon Ages now. Perhaps you all change your minds too, oh and yeah Anthem happened since then...
1. Star Wars The Old Republic
2. Mass Effect 3
3. Mass Effect Andromeda
4. Dragon Age 2
5. Mass Effect 1
6. Dragon Age Inquisition
7. Mass Effect 2
8. Dragon Age Origins
9. Anthem
Pending:
Jade Empire (Haven't played it yet)
KOTOR (Haven't replayed in forever so have no idea)
So, the main things that changed for me is a lot based on replay when it comes to Mass Effect. Ironically, I had Mass Effect 2 at the top back then and now is at the bottom almost because when it comes to replaying, it doesn't really offer much for me, and when it comes to the story it feels like a massive sidequest than a moving piece in the story but is still essential to make Mass Effect 3 feel as good as it does too. It's really great the first time you play to meet all the chars but once all that is said and done, it offers little on a replay. SWTOR is now at the top for me because they continue to keep adding more and more bi romances into the game, they keep adding more story and star wars is ultimately my favorite ip so having many m/m options keep being added for it is a dream come true. Andromeda now that I played the full Jaal romance it made me love even more the game and I just find myself enjoy replaying that one a lot with its combat, visuals, and Ryder.
When it comes to Dragon Age on the list, the second game just offered so much, the drama, the romance, Hawke feeling like a proper char rather than just a too neutral avatar, and things don't feel like they ever drag on in that game, just unfortunately rushed at the end. Now Origins is so far on the bottom because while I loved my Alistair romance as one of my favorites ever, is not actually canon in the game and I can't rank the game as high for something that's not actually part of the game. That and the whole Orzammar bit is way TOO long aahh! Inquisition is a tough one to rank, probably tied to ME1,
is good I enjoyed my replay, just doesn't pop as much as 2 for me. Anthem is at the bottom because while the combat was pretty great, the story was poor, there's just was nothing to it for a Bioware game.

Oh I totally agree with you Noel about ME2, that one is a struggle to play for me. I didnt even remember that I posted here so I was thinking about the ranking in my head til I saw my post and well it's pretty much the same, maybe ME3 over DA2 just because I appreciate Kaidan romance more thanks to rondeeno 's mods. I want to play Jade Empire at some point but I have to gather mental strength to go through all that to romance Sky (be mean to the female characters put me off) the fact theres no CC is also one of the reasons why I havent played yet. Kotor (no mlm romance) and Anthem (meh) do not exist for me haha. So it would be like this: 1. DAO (modded bi Alistair with ultimate sacrifice to make it "canon" meant so much to me, my first game too and I was literally a simp for Alistair back then lol my opinion here is not objective but I still feel the same after all these years, although I think DAO was, in a objectively way, a RPG at its purest) 2. ME3 (Great conclusion if you overlook that Shep needed a better ending, Kaidan with mods is pure gayness joy + Citadel dlc) 3. DA2 (Best DA protagonist imo, great story, great characters, great relationship system and the only time Bioware did romance distribution right (I know f/m had an extra romance but Sebastian doesnt exist for me haha)) 4. DAI (Iron Boo is everything for me haha stupid fetch and some side quests though) 5. MEA (great protagonist with a different personality from Shepard... AND JAAL) 6. SWTOR (I was really surprised with the game and I didnt even experience full gayness yet? (I only have one character and thats a dashade fucker lol BIOWARE GIMME MORRR)) edit. I liiied, I made a furry cathar for Theron years ago but he is there waiting cause Swtor is a really long game haha) 7. ME1 (with rondeeno's mods, great introduction to ME lore) 8. ME2 (bleh overrated game, great companions though and phenomenal suicide mission) 9. BG1 and BG2 (I dont have the nostalgia factor so... I mean they are good classic old rpgs if you are into that, a game of its time and it aged bad in my opinion, the EE versions gave gay romances but it's difficult to get into them even with that (specially for mlm), I was in a BG hype thanks to BG3 and I'm glad I played them cause they made me appreciate BG3 more but if I would have played BG3 first I would have had a hard time trying to get into the games) |

Mass Effect 2 is the worst for me. I adore some of the newer companions plus the fun changes to Vanguard, but there was something about it I hated so much.
My list though... hm.
1. SWTOR. - It might have been 2nd place but I love that I can fuck over the Empire as an Imp now, plus I can smooch most of my favourites.
2. Mass Effect 3 - I pretty much always romanced Kaidan in ME1 with mods but it was good to finally have him 'legit.' Citadel/Leviathan were my favourite ME dlcs also.
3. Dragon Age 2 - It might have repeatable assets but it gave me my feather mage husbando so all is forgiven.
4. DA:I - I have issues with some of the romances but it still let me bang a Qunari so it's up there.
5. Mass Effect Andromeda - I liked Ryder, I loved Reyes. I am still salty about the bullshit behind Jaal but it brought so many of us together.
6. Mass Effect 1
7. Dragon Age Awakening - More feather mage husbando content.
8. Dragon Age Origins - Forever salty that my bi Alistair is no longer canon because of the Keep.
9. KOTOR/2 - I enjoyed KOTOR because I modded it so I could smooch Carth. It and 2 are still low though because I hated the quest system not having markers. (I gave up on the 2nd for this reason.)
10. Mass Effect 2
I've not played any other Bioware games but I don't imagine the ranking would change if I did.
