is this game worth buying (PC version) if I've never played ME1 or ME2? I'm also a little skeptical about all of the DLC, random complaints about bioware/EA's decisions in the games development? Is it as big a deal now that the game is released?

It's worth it, but it becomes a billion times better if you've played them before.

I'm planning to replay both MW1 and MW2 through while waiting for my new beast of a computer to arrive in 2 weeks so I can fully enjoy ME3 in all its graphical glory.


So... Mass Effect 3 follows the story of Modern Warfare 2?

Haha oops :<

this game wont be on steam ever. Mass Effect 3 is on Origin so I highly doubt they'll ever give it to steam.

For those who have finished the game.. how long is it?


Read Reviews. Mostly 30-50hrs depending on Difficulty/Playstye and if you import a Level30 Char lolz. But no one should buy ME3 if they don't played ME1/ME2. Buy ME1 for 5$ and ME2 for 10$ and until you played through both you can get ME3 for 20$.
Or just torrent all 3 for free, but play 1+2 before 3!!!

Probably if EA wants origin to actually be something they need some exclusives in order to bring people in, same way valve works you wanna play our games you play on our terms.

How many games are, even if you bought it retail you must use steam? What Civ4? MW2 3 etc. any valve game, the newer of the total war series, dawn of war 2 i think, and fear 2/3(fear 1 didn't need steam though), world of goo, plants vs zombies, Saints Row 2/3, Serious Sam HD, Torchlight, Borderlands, Just Cause 2, Metro 2033?, Fallout: New Vegas, newer parts of the Warhammer 40k series, Dead Island, Deus Ex, Skyrim. I mean there are plenty of games that you must play with steam, a shit ton even considering it's locking up entire series.

Do yourselves a favor and play as a Vanguard -- particularly if you're importing a level 30 character from ME2.

I'm so glad i played the beta i'm used to the more jumpy movement, it gives alot of control you just need to know what you're doing.

so do you really keep the level of the character you imported and get to spend the skillpoints too? Wouldnt that kill all the fun when you are super strong right at the beginning?

Yes, you keep the skill points. I imported a level 30 ME2 character, and started with 59 available skill points (1 was invested in inferno ammo by default). That allowed me to max out charge and nova from the getgo, and make significant investments into Fitness and Assault Mastery.

It doesn't kill the fun unless you're playing on a weak difficulty level. I'm playing on hardcore for my first playthrough, which is probably roughly equivalent to ME2's insanity, if not a little harder. I'm actually really surprised at how many enemies you fight at any given time. Even with my souped up start, I still have to be careful what I charge into. That said, charging into singularities = win.

You can edit your ME2 Savegame and change your char to level1-10. With level25+ at the beginning the game is a joke.

So I cannot transfer my character's face over to Mass Effect 3.

I am so sad. I can't believe they would do this.

you could always open me2 and copy the code which should be under the squad tab top left of the screen when you're looking at Shepard, mine imported just fine although the eyebrows look a little funky.

You can also only import finished games, ie post suicide mission.

I must say I'm pleasantly surprised. Going through the game slowly and enjoying every moment I can.

Playing with lvl 30 char from the get go on Hardcore. I'm not into action much so it's pretty decent difficulty for me, at least for now, since I try alot of things. No I-WIN tactics for me yet. Pretty random.

Game feels more ME1 than ME2. Normandy feels like home again... Glad they changed a few things with HUD. Don't like planet exploration right now at all. Feels redundant.

And I must say From Ashes DLC is truly a fucking ripoff. Went to do it straight when I got to galaxy map. And it felt very refreshing and pretty well done. I wouldn't be able to tell it's a random bonus material... considering it's about Protheans and an actual sidekick Prothean. All those small things you learn from it make all the previous experiences much more meaningful and you can reflect on them in a different light with new knowledge. Basically, it truly felt like a purposely cut out part of the full product to get more money. Glad I haven't payed anything for this game.

Ah thanks I'll try that.

Sad thing is I lost all my scars and red eyes no matter what.

Edit 3: I can't find the code anywhere. I'm gonna create a new ME2 file and import the ME1 code since I'm pretty sure it shows up there.

Yeah the code sometimes buggs out when you import a me2 character for a new game+ i'd try to see you're first play though of your character

I heard that + Show Spoiler +
Shepard can die in ME2
(ME2 spoiler....lol).

How does this factor into the story of ME3? Or, is that, if you want to "continue" the story in ME3, the above couldn't have happened?
