Mass Effect Legendary Edition rated in Korea

- Start date
Synthesis (perhaps intended as the best ending but hated by many) was available without MP. But the bonus scene to the Destroy ending that many people considered the best ending wasn't.
This was eventually fixed by patch or the extended cut or something.
Well, it hasn't been officially announced, so no one knows.
I wish this would've been something Like Halo Anniversary and at least one of the game, the first one, would get a remake treatment. Improve item management for sure but everything else leave as it is.
Right. I know they added additional ending after so many people complained about the default ones, but I got what was considered the best at launch, and the ending that people were stressing out over needing to do MP for at launch.
You needed 4000 EMS to get the "best ending" at launch(destroy with bonus scene) which at 50% readiness meant you had to get 8000 war assets. There were 8370 war assets in the game at launch but there was a hell of a lot of mutually exclusive war assets which meant there was less than 8000 war assets in a playthough. People datamined, they made spreadsheets, they run every possible combination. The "destroy with bonus scene" at launch without multiplayer/app was impossible. Synthesis as an ending unlocks at 2800 EMS/ 5600 Total war assets, is that the ending you meant?
This would be fine for me. Gives it room from the rush of the new systems and we'd know for sure that we're getting it.
I made sure I owned all three games and all DLC digitally on Xbox, juuuust in case EA tries any delisting jackassery.
Really hoping it would land sooner as I recently stopped my replay on PC because this is on the way. I got other things to play for sure but I really wanted to revisit soon.
Eventually. EA games join the vault after ~6-12 months, you don't get new releases day 1 like with Game Pass. There's likely to be a free 10 hour trial though.
I have no doubt this will not be announced N7 day... there has never been anything meaningful in those days, it's just the same empty videos and a couple of artworks. I doubt anyone at EA even think it as an option.
I can't imagine it will happen just because of the sheer size of it. EA has been putting their remasters on Switch but it's been smaller games like Burnout and Need for Speed, Mass Effect would absolutely require an extra download and I don't think EA would be willing to do that.
Don't think it's a hot take at all. It was definitely the best part for me, I begrudgingly did it for the story progression at first, but ended up investing many more hours into the MP than SP. And I enjoyed the single player for the most part.
The loot boxes were some bullshit though. Constantly unlocking class/races over and over and over again (that you've already unlocked) with no tangible benefit was infuriating.
Yes, the lootboxes were rather dubious. I thought giving you character cards when you had maxed everything was especially slimy.
Feeling like I could do with some hints ya know? Got any little crumbs for us?
Expecting (hoping for) a full on remaster of ME1 (please don't mess with it too much & leave in the RPG elements but tidy the visuals and menus/inventory). Not going to lie...they will have to tread a bit of a fine line for me to be happy with it, if they just make it ME3 gameplay in ME1 locations I feel like I would be a bit disappointed.
I would imagine 2 & 3 would get more of a visual overhaul leaving a lot of the systems the same.

You tell us. Should we be excited? Or prepare to be incredibly underwhelmed?
It's funny. The next generation of consoles is coming next month, I think it's gonna be amazing, but feel pretty peaceful about it. At the same time, this particular remaster gets me very fucking excited. Maybe it's because I replay the trilogy at least once a year, but the idea of playing these games with a range of improvements makes my mind go places.
I mean, not every N7 Day can be packed, but the last one we had before a big release was this:
So I don't think it's too unlikely.
That supports my argument I think. This was for a game that would release in the next 5 months of which we knew basically nothing. I even believe I remember people saying this trailer was so lackluster because they were keeping the real deal for the Game Awards.
If the game was already announced, then I would expect to see something. But it's clear EA is handling this announcement with care, so I don't think they would choose a date that has value only to hardcore fans.
Some games get rated but never release, especially with re-releases.
That's still a long shot away from having to play multiplayer to 100% the game. I think it's fair to ask for a perfect completion rate if you want the best ending, especially when doing so makes sense from the plot's point of view.
You think an announcement is still a ways out or can we potentially expect one next month?
They're definitely going to announce it on N7 day. If they shadowdrop it I will lose my shit.
Hyped to the point I will inevitably be disappointed.
