I’m nervous to play ME3
Hi all! Title is pretty much what this post is about!
I played ME2 years ago (the sticker on the disk case covered the ‘2’, so I ended up playing that one first), and fell in love. I’m replayed that game so many times over the years I could probably recite it! I’ve now (thankfully) played ME1 a few years ago, and recently completed Mass Effect Andromeda (incredible game).
I’m a huge fan of the franchise, the world and species built, but there’s a line I’ve not crossed yet.
Now, have I played ME3? As the title suggests, no. I had it spoiled for me when it first came out (I couldn’t escape those spoilers), and saw all the chatter about how the ending was disappointing. I’m now at a point where I’ve played ME1 and ME2 on the legendary edition, and had a good couple of run throughs on both, but I’m reluctant to even dive into ME3!
Has LE made the ending better? Is it worth it? Or should I keep in my bubble of comfort post-collectors?
