    I was looking forward to an easy platinum but I found myself running around talking to npc’s for the first few hours.

    Very frustrating you need to manually guess where to go next using the journal and that the game doesn’t indicate where to go to next on these mazes of space ships. Did they pay for good ratings on this game ? It is no way near an 86 !!!!

    I just played the ME1 through in a ps4 legendary edition and went to me2.

    Limited ammo. Freaking limited ammo, in the world that invented a mass effect technology, which made limited ammo literally obsolete. It's like shooting flintlock riffle after an automatic. And when the gun is out of ammo("heatsinks")? Yo guess it it stops shooting.

    Too much hype, very overrated. Maybe I was expecting too much for an admittedly old game, but I found it absolutely unattractive, and I do not mean the graphics and the gameplay mechanics.
    I really wonder why people find the story interesting. For me it was a complete mess and I simply did not "get" it.
    Perhaps my IQ is too limited...

    I wanted this series to get remastered for so long, but then they censored it. 0/10 I don’t support censorship.

    Scam just like every other EA game. Don't buy it. EA is a horrible company. Every game from 10 years ago is either better or at least equivalent

    Pluses:

    The 3 games are pretty compact and put in 1 place which saves you space and time.
    The Edition almost has all of the game's DLC's which is great (no need to buy them)
    There is a bit improvement in regards to how the cinematic looks and some overall Visual Character improvements.
    Some area's with bosses are now better due to added cover.
    Loading times for the most part have been shortened.

    Minus the :O

    Why the hell are you forced to run EA's crappy Origin to play Single Player games on steam? Bad Move EA no micro-transactions for you.

    For ME1 there have been barely any improvements in regards to the quality of the product I can't even say that its a Remaster to be honest. The entire game is as always very janky and the Mako is still incredibly awful when you control it over terrain, combat is also the same broken mess as the previous version.

    For ME2 Visually it looks great and the missions handle very well for the most part. My only issue is with the Camera angles which are worse than the original ME2 which I did not know it could be possible, characters phase or become fully invisible in some parts of the conversations.

    For ME3 I cant say that there are improvements on it visually and it looks like the original version.I keep experiencing camera issues when having conversations with the characters which I think never showed up on the original game.

    Overall it's fine if you want the entire collection + DLC on your steam Library but I can't say that there is anything really ''REMASTERED'' as they claim. I would suggest buying this on sale ( around 50%-60% off).    … Expand

    Но играть в такой «ремастер» в 2021-2022 году на консоли пс5 - ето очень странно…графика ужасная…учитесь в Capcom,а не просите с людей по 60-70$ за такое старое и ужасное дерьмище

    ME1+2 is like a corpse with make-up. No way to skip cutscenes, no new animations, no fixes of the clunkiness, etc. Surround sound is utterly broken.

    Mass Effect: Legendary Edition offers the comprehensive experience that the whole trilogy rightfully deserves. Thanks to this, you can easily forgive it all sorts of small ailments associated with the age of individual parts and you drown dozens of unforgettable hours in the game without blinking an eye. Yes, even after such a long time.

    The Mass Effect Trilogy is incredible. The overarching story and its characters are excellent, and each one was better than the last. I wasn’t sure if these games would hold up in the current environment, but they absolutely do. They’re still worth playing, I recommend them, and to anyone about to jump in — play at a slower pace. Do not rush through. Explore everything they have to offer and relish in their richness.

    No fan of Star-Trek-style science fiction should miss Mass Effect – and this package offers the best version of the trilogy currently available. [Issue#3, p.144]
