Mass Effect Megathread: He said "I should go." Do I sound like that? - Games

[QUOTE=Cloak Raider;51044484]pretty crazy that they limited it to basically english speaking countries and that's it like, if someone has a good voice and good english, why limit it[/QUOTE] It's likely that they want to invite the winner to an actual recording studio so that they can get professional audio quality, so they can only offer this to people in the listed countries. Or they really don't care about the few houndred people that would be eligible outside of the listed countries.

Actually its exactly that, you have to go to their studios for the actual recording.

[QUOTE=Cloak Raider;51044484]pretty crazy that they limited it to basically english speaking countries and that's it like, if someone has a good voice and good english, why limit it[/QUOTE] Because the people may not have a visa, they may not be able to pay for external transportation because the travel is subsidized through EA, and the VA session will actually be hella short, and they need you NDA'd waivered and registered for VA accreditation hella quick. Same insurance and monetary reasons people on game shows have to be locals or continentals.

I love how they begin with phrase "Citizens of Earth" and then limiting to English-speaking portion. It's as if they were referencing to that utter bullshit called "Bazaar". Yes, i still remember that shit.

For everyone who got a beta key, it starts today.

More conceptual shit I'm sorry guys, it's just what it is I'm already extremely weary of their "Mass Effect without the unique trilogy thing" approach, but they sure as hell aren't doing much to win me over with such "highly anticipated trailers" Let's remember that this game was officially announced [I]FOUR YEARS AGO[/I].

GI cover looks meh, what do i know [img]http://i.imgur.com/NvRldTH.jpg[/img]

I don't think you can walk like that on the moon. Oh wait, you could in Mass Effect 1, right? I blame the mass effect.

Something about mass effect fields inside of the armor. But then they suddenly doesn't work in ME2's prologue :D

[QUOTE=unidentified;51296111]GI cover looks meh, what do i know [img]http://i.imgur.com/NvRldTH.jpg[/img][/QUOTE] Rises to save humanity...well it's better than rising to save the galaxy....right ? :nope:

But wait, there is more [thumb]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CwRpbS-XYAEjUZr.jpg[/thumb] Wow, the Nextgen is true! Finally there will be an actual text on screens!

Happy N7 day folks! Hope the new trailer is juicy!

Lets all remember to stay hydrated

If it wasn't for the Asari and the title drop, I wouldn't even know that trailer is for another Mass Effect game Great job.

[QUOTE=Wiggles;51323143][hd]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyZw_oqk7Q8[/hd] I puked a little in my mouth.[/QUOTE] This STILL doesn't feel like Mass Effect. Jesus, I'm starting to worry. (Yes I know, 27X, I'm only starting now)

Halo 4 2 isn't looking great. A bit of a cop-out that they'd bring the Didact back TBH.

I just want to see some actual gameplay. As long as they keep my vanguard intact from how it was in ME3 I'll be happy.

So I decided to go and look up the reveal trailer for Mass Effect to see how different Andromeda is. [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Li2MIGxOww[/media] Couldn't really get much different. We went from exploring and investigating a galaxy and talking to the people who live there to a generic ancient evil who you have to stop because you shoot good. Andromeda didn't need a slow, drawn out reveal trailer like Mass Effect had, but a little more focus on the world and the characters would have been nice. Instead of "We slept for hundreds of years. Now buckle up because we're in for a shooting gallery."

My general rule of thumb with AAA games: The more reluctant the devs are when it comes to showing off their game, the shittier the game at launch is going to be. No excuse such as not wanting to expose spoilers, we are talking about big budget marketing here. And here I am, getting worried because I don't see fuck all yet. Game releases in 4 months, right?

In honour of N7 day, have a bunch of incorrect Mass Effect quotes [url]http://imgur.com/gallery/vd7He[/url]

[QUOTE=Wiggles;51323143][hd]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyZw_oqk7Q8[/hd] I puked a little in my mouth.[/QUOTE] I'm terrified. Literally nothing about this says "Mass Effect" to me. Help. I don't want one of my favourite game series' to die.

[QUOTE=unidentified;51296111]GI cover looks meh, what do i know [img]http://i.imgur.com/NvRldTH.jpg[/img][/QUOTE] Why just humanity, I mean... Do the other races not matter? :pudge:

[QUOTE=CrossNgen;51323562]The Kett (the hostile aliens in the trailer) aren't ancient, they're just a hostile race, it's the Ramnent that are the ancient and extinct race, and the Kett are using their weaponry.[/QUOTE] 'Ramnent' sounds like someone was like "What should we name this ancient race? Something that sounds old, like remnant.. ram..ramnent."

[QUOTE=ramirez!;51323901]'Ramnent' sounds like someone was like "What should we name this ancient race? Something that sounds old, like remnant.. ram..ramnent."[/QUOTE] Oh don't worry that was just a typo. They're just called the "Remnant". Much more interesting.

[QUOTE=Anyx;51323663]I'm terrified. Literally nothing about this says "Mass Effect" to me. Help. I don't want one of my favourite game series' to die.[/QUOTE] What exactly is "mass effect" to you then. I mean they already said that "the smallest squadie in Andromeda has 20% more content than the biggest squadie in ME3" which means their priorities are still on characters and plot. "mass effect" is a scifi universe where FTL travel and space-magic is possible by manipulating eezo, how can that literally have any "feel" to it when we are [B]in another galaxy[/B]
