    I actually hope I'm still in lockdown here in the North when this gets released. I work in a restaurant/bar and if I'm back to work I'll never find the time to play! :pac:

    By the by, my wish has not come true. Alas, I returned to work on Friday. Sad times, however I will still look forward to playing through the game an hour at a time when I get home late most nights :(

    I'm a bit ignorant when it comes to this kind of thing . Played 2 and 3 on PlayStation . Seeing 120 fps vs 60 fps on ps5 vs series I'd be tempted to buy this on series x , but will it make that much of a difference ?

    The thing is ... I know I should differ from my previous playthroughs (four of them) choices, squadmates, romance options etc. But I know I won't.

    And I don't care.

    No, not really. If your TV supports it, then it's a nice option to have, but 4k60 will be great as it is.

    For me the drop to 1440p would not be worth the sacrifice. Your mileage may vary but IMO 120 fps would be something I would only care about in very specific games.

    Remember as well that 120 FPS remains a relatively niche proposition - not a whole lot of TVs support it yet. It’s an option if you do have a tv with it, but TBH for a game like Mass Effect 4K 60 would be more than enough. For very fast paced online shooters or character action games I’d recommend taking the resolution hit for the boosted frame rate though, again once your tv can handle it.

    I'm almost certainly going to play it exactly the same way i've always played it. Full Paragon (with the off non important Renegade thrown in), and hook up with Liara.

    Feels weird to play it differently :pac:

    Same exact with Tali. Don't think I've ever romanced any other character, would just feel wrong :)

    Interested to know more about the morality system in this as it seems you can get away with a bit more without losing any teammates. Definitely want to throw the odd Renegade punch in there.

    The only check i ever failed in any of the games was the last Paragon one with the IM. Always annoyed me.

    Will definitely add in a few this time, with them not being so strict with it.

    Ashley is going to make the sacrifice this time around.

    Though Kaiden ust grates so much in ME1.

    Shep - Hey Kaiden, good job.
    Kaiden - OH MY GOD I LOVE YOU TOO.

    I've heard he is a really good character in 3. so I'm gonna try find out.

    I wish the sacrifice choice actually felt like it was needed though. Always had the impression it was a stupid choice and both could have survived without much more effort. Maybe I got it wrong and will see it differently this time around.

    The only real choice is Jack, you know she'd get the round in.

    I think i actually romanced a different character every playthrough.

    Oddly my first was Miranda, because I actually missed the boat on ME and started the series with 2. I think I "did" every female character, and Garrus and Kaiden as Femshep.

    Nice, they changed them to make them possible in a single playthrough of each game. Also the powers used ones are counted when you command squad to use them.

    Hey everyone - I have a few answers to some of the questions I've seen in here. Not trying to open this up to an official AMA or anything, but I did want to provide some clarity on some of these.

    Bonus weapon talents are unlocked after one playthrough of the game
    There are 3 platinum trophies - one for each game in the trilogy
    Power achievements count player use and player-ordered use (so you can order Liara to use Lift and get credit for the achievement)
    All ME1 difficulties are unlocked by default from the start

    Has this ever been done before? Seems like a first. That can surely mean that at some stage those games will be available separately on the digital store? Though I think the Legendary Edition trophies negate that.

    I'm fairly sure the Spyro and Crash games have the same.

    Wouldn't know of any others though.

    So what classes are people planning for each game and for returning players, can you remember what classes you used before?
    For me
    Original games
    Mass Effect - Soldier, I think
    Mass Effect 2 - Vanguard
    Mass Effect 3 - Vanguard

    New version
    Mass Effect - Biotic
    Mass Effect 2 - Vanguard or Sentinel
    Mass Effect 3 - Vanguard or Sentinel
