Whats so good about Mass Effect

Everyone i talked to keeps saying how great mass effect is. Well i played the demo and thought it was so so. I mean what makes so great? At one time i was thinking about buying it but not to sure on it. Can anyone give some good reasons why its worth buy? ThanksWhats so good about Mass Effect
great story! Fleshed out world. its great to be able to explore planets, have squad control, upgrade weapons, play fast paced shooting style, and upgrade your weapons and characters in tons of different ways.This is a game that is greater than the sum of its parts. its 15 buck used. go to gamestop you can keep a used game for two weeks. If you don't like it you can return it and get another game with the 15 bucks or pre-order something else.Whats so good about Mass Effect
It has very immersive gameplay for one thing. It has one of the best between-character dialogue systems ever created in a video game. It also has a really awesome story line, cool powers, and a lot of different environments to explore. I liked Mass Effect because it made me actually care about the characters I was playing with. You will sometimes be forced to choose which one of your team members lives, and which one dies.
takes about an hour to get into the good stuff, but its worth it.
OK thanks, well if i liked fallout 3 would i like this game since its a action rpg?
It is an amazing RPG. The characters develop over time, you get to go on the hunt and learn about all the species and how they interact. You get to save the galaxy, that sort of stuff. You aren't going to get that in a demo.



Now, the demo did show you probably, how much you might like the combat... and if you can't stand it, that might be a reason NOT to play it. But if you have any WRPG love in you, I think you should at least get it and play though on Easy or Normal mode just for the RPG elements. Make sure to turn off the subtitles to add to the experience.
liking fallout 3 doesnt mean you'll like this, quite different, but i recommend trying it, it is a great game even if it takes about an hour to kick off properly
I just started playing it and I was really enjoying it until I got into the driving part. For me that ruined the game.
For the price which you could pick up Mass Effect for at the moment as it is in the Classics line I believe (I could be wrong) you are definately getting value for money out of it. Several of the plus points are:Fleshed out Universe for you to explorePlenty of SidequestsCharacters which have real depth and emotion, no wooden boards on this shipIt will also fill you in for Mass Effect 2, if you like any kind of rpg, or futuristic / sci - fi setting then definately check this game out. It'l be worth your time.
Mass Effect was Excellent,shame i got rid of it a while back.
My friend got bored of it after about and hour of playing and gave his limited edition copy to me :DI enjoyed it but you have to spend a while getting into the game
It has a good story and some very good characters. The world seens to borrow some from shows like Babylon 5 but it is really good for a first game using it. It's probably Biowares worst game, ignoring anything done on handhelds but it is still really good. It's nothing amazing but the sequel will likely improve much of what was wrong with the first (driving, party member dialoge during missions, party interaction, make combat more fun and difficult, halfway decent inventory, fix bugs, better sidequest, varied worlds not part of the main story). If you plan to play the second playing through the first is also a good idea to get the backstory and to import your saved game for the second.
Its a great game.But its hard to play it more then one time, because then you really start to see the horrible framerates and texture popins.Cant believe they actually released the game in that state.
Takes a while to get into, but once your in... your hooked. I've completed it three times now.
A better question would be ''What's not to like about Mass Effect?'' Seriously, you should go buy this game.
  • Incredibly immersive story
  • Detailed and fleshed out characters
  • Moral choices that will progressively get harder to make
  • Excellent combat(at least in my opinion)
  • Long storyline
  • Hours upon hours of side quests
  • Squad combat/tactics
  • Numerous ways to go through the story
  • Upgrade your weapons and armor along with the weapons and armor of your squad
  • Numerous worlds to explore
  • DLC
  • And lastly, it's made by BioWare. Honestly, it being made by BioWare is all you should need to know about a game before you buy it.
And liking Fallout 3, won't necessarily mean that you'll like Mass Effect. They're pretty different games.
these are all questions that can be answered by reading and watching reviews
its great because it has a good story and you can make your own decisions and very in depth character customization
Everything. Although it takes a little while to get into it, the world is just so big and the characters are so interesting.
the history and the way you make conversations

You will not be dissapointed.
