Game review: tinyurl.com/2p8r4tv5 ♦ Episode description: ↓
In the opening chapter of Mass Effect Legendary Edition (Renegade Route), Commander Jane Shepard is hereby introduced into this Galaxy as a Ruthless character of Earthborn origin, trained in the Allied Forces as a professional Vanguard (with Singularity as a bonus talent). Assigned to the Normandy SR-1 for a covert mission on the planet of Eden Prime - to help transport a recently unearthed Prothean beacon to safety - Shepard has her first encounter with the hostile synthetic race of the Geth; a mysterious enormous spaceship, the likes of which have never been seen before; and the beacon in question, close contact with which leaves her a changed woman... seemingly forever.
[NOTE: This video is part of a complete re-recording of the Mass Effect Trilogy in its Legendary Edition, replacing my previous recordings of the original trilogy. There are no significant differences with the previous playthrough, as the main reason behind the re-recording is not to present a different path, but rather to make use of the enhanced visuals and present everything in higher video and audio quality. In addition to the base Legendary Edition version, the game uses a set of custom-made mods to enhance visual performance even further (LEUITM, MELLO, ALOT, etc.), as well as the "Community Patch" and "Diversification Project" to correct occasional bugs and restore a few pieces of cut content.]

Quick question If you doing the Mass Effect games or at least the first game on Legendary Edition, do you have any plans to play the Next Gen Witcher 3 ?

[@st.georgesgames6299]

It's perfectly possible, but I suspect that by the time I get through with the Legendary Edition re-recordings, there'll already be a Post-Next Gen Witcher 3 or something (and possibly heavily improved versions of the first two games as well: like Mass Effect, I think of The Witcher as a wholesome trilogy where the last part, even if it's the best, is still very much dependent on the first two).

[@drmagical4225]

Makes scence to see if any possible remakes, remasters or anything of the sort would happen to at least Witcher 1 and 2. ( Which my monkey brain would jumping up and down by the thought)
If something of the sorts would happen, I can imagine you doing something for the Witcher games like you're doing now for the Mass Effect games, or at least the first one.
Bit of not important note more of a jokey dumb brain moment, don't take too seriously and skip this part if you want, but for some reason with "By the time I get through LE" part of your replay I could just imagine you a few decades, or a Century or two just to finish the game/games off, I know with a more serious mindset you probably only take a few months, to maybe a year or so, but let me have my dumb brain moment fun.
Also while I'm here partly talking about remakes and remasters, (also partly checking if something I've heard of is true,) I've heard that Black Mesa Blue Shift is a thing, might still be in early access by the time of this comment, but if and when it eventually comes out if it hasn't already, will you be checking it out?

[@st.georgesgames6299]

Yes, it's definitely going to take at least a year for the entire trilogy in two sets, maybe more. I've actually been thinking about redoing the entire Black Mesa playthrough, too, seeing as how the original one was still the early access version and it's been no doubt polished quite a bit since then. But ME takes priority for now as far as re-recordings are concerned.

Why didn't play on Insanity difficulty?

[@st.georgesgames6299]

@@UmbraTricksterWhy should I? This is a playthrough for the story and atmosphere, not for showing off. Insanity requires more patience and more time for battle, it doesn't make for particularly entertaining viewing unless it's a purely technical video.
