Mass Effect 3 ps3 review
I came to this game as someone who has never played Mass Effect 1 or 2. But this was a highly publicized game and it seemed fun – good strong narrative action and role-playing game. At first I decided that I was in this more to the story that the action, so I played almost entirely in difficulty fighting ‘narrative’. This worked for me has made me feel like an interactive movie. Action heroes usually breeze through most fights without having to worry about selecting different powers and tactics, so it was a pleasant style of play for me. I’m sure if I should take the time to learn the fight I had a good experience richer.
Overall I found Mass Effect 3 to be extremely compelling and funny, and I go back to playing Mass Effect 2 at least, that seems to be the favorite of other players. The graphics are stunning and epic combat is frantic and fun, and the story and the characters are interesting and sometimes very moving. Once I got the hang of the system of conversation I was immersed in my decisions and their outcomes.
The finish is obviously very controversial. I think there are two elements to it. The simplest is if it is well executed, in terms of what we are actually able to see. In this regard are in agreement with the majority of people who unfortunately is insufficient. The scenes in the middle of most of the missions are longer and more consistent than the final sequence of the entire trilogy. Bioware would do well to release at least some ‘additional material so that the ending makes sense and has a length satisfactory.
The more difficult question is whether it is a final ‘good’. I can understand why people find it frustrating that in a series that advertises the impact of the decisions of the small variation is so little in the way it ends. I think this may be partly laziness on the developers. But it also exposes the true scope of the choice and consequences at stake was probably just an illusion from the beginning. Yes, you can change the outcome of life for some people, and the fate of entire alien races.
You can follow different relationships and become a different kind of person that through your choices. But the great over-arching narrative is completely solved, even predetermined by the actions of the reapers that are completely independent control Shephard. The whole premise of the series is that you must marshal what resources they can against an implacable destiny. The story always ended up in the place that made him the kind of confrontation that has happened.I think in a sense may be true that all these ‘decisions’ that you did end up just boil down to three simple choices that describe the type of person you become. So I can understand why the story ended as it did, although I agree that I do not feel right. The sense of being cheated that many people may just be a revolt against the true message of the series, which is in a sense we have only a few basic choices to make and the rest is just an elaboration of that.
I would recommend this game, I think it’s fun and addictive, and if the ending is unsatisfactory, at least so that it can not give you much to think about, even what kind of game they have played all the time. Indeed, what kind of life you have lived.
