The music entries are almost always my favorite posts in the challenges I do, and they rarely distill into a single track. By rarely, I mean never, and this trend continues with Mass Effect. So, without further ado, I give you my favorite pieces from the whole series: NOTE: I’m splitting this into two parts…

And here, my friends, is Part II! Mass Effect 3 had some great pieces in it, some of them bumping earlier favorites down my list – in particular, “Rannoch.” I just love its epic feel. So freaking great. MASS EFFECT 3 MASS EFFECT 3 DLC And there we have it: my favorite bits from the…

As much as I love sandbox style games, there is one part of them that I detest: traveling. Even if they give you a vehicle, like the horses or carriages in Assassin’s Creed or Dragon Age: Inquisition, the simple idea of roaming through the countryside, after a while, gets … how to put this lightly? Fucking…

The best part of the Mass Effect series is also the one of the worst parts, so today’s challenge question is going to seem … kind of contradictory? I don’t know. You be the judge. Anyway, player choice. It’s one of the most praised aspects of Mass Effect, and deservedly so. Leading into the third game, every player…

LOL, I shot myself in the foot yesterday. Not literally, obviously, because I don’t own a gun and don’t plan on owning one ever, but figuratively, because I accidentally spoiled today’s post. I’m not going to let that get in the way, though, because I feel like I might be able to expand a bit…

If you had asked me this question a few years ago, my answer would have been the Collectors. It should have been Harbinger, but I was severely disappointed there. Like, okay, I’m going to deviate from the topic a bit here because I am still upset about this. Harbinger was supposed to be like ME1‘s…

Despite my deep and abiding love for the krogan, I would be lying if I said that I would ever want to visit Tuchanka. It just seems … unpleasant, even if there are secret lush and green areas now. Although having my own pet varren follow me around and beg for pyjak meat is almost…

I’m going to give Bioware a ton of credit here. They’re incredibly consistent in creating games where gender* doesn’t significantly change things beyond dialogue. Besides giving FemShep breasts, the developers don’t have her hips sway more when she walks or have said breasts jiggle every which way, which is honestly probably more of a time-…

I. AM. KROGAN. Before I get into it, I need to wish my Sister Person a happy 34th birthday! She’s taking a social media vacation for the time being (she hasn’t said when she’ll be coming back or, well, if she will), but you should hop over on Twitter and wish her the best day ever!…

Mass Effect has some of the most memorable NPCs in all of gaming throughout its run, from the rogue AI that wants to blow up the Citadel in the first game to Major Kirrahe to Conrad Verner. They’re all so vividly imagined, and even though it’s a little difficult to narrow it down to one,…
