"Would you give me a discount if I say this is my favorite game?"
"Of course, it would do good to business."
"This is Commander Shepard and this is my favorite game in the Citadel."

At first, I didn't see myself putting too much effort into an entire new franchise, even though I'm really into space and was always fascinated by the futuristic or exploring games (a couple of examples being Deus Ex - Revolution & Mankind Divided, Witcher, No Man's Sky, PREY etc.), but my God I would lie if I said that I wasn't Addicted to find out what happens after the first game, and it continued after the 2nd one too, and here I am today, after I completed the last one of the trilogy.

The entire franchise was a masterpiece, from top to bottom, even though I must admit, I despised Mass Effect 2's planet scanning, as I like to 100% a game before I go into the next one, so you would imagine how many hours I put only into scanning every planet for the last drop of element zero or platinum. But man, I got so deep into the storyline, that it's one of the FEW games in which I'm so sad that it ended, and I wish I had another 115 hours to spend again to go through the entire trillogy and experience the game again.
Of course, I won't be able to experience it as if it's the first time, but it was such a great experience that I would go through it again.

Mass Effect 1 - the buggy simulator
In the first hours, I was getting adapted to the combat system, the ,as you would call it, right side pannel of abilities and team management.
Infiltrator perk / class seemed like the most fitting one for my character (who I tried to make him look as close as possible as me), so I went with it.
The first few missions went really well, but I regret that I didn't chose the Insanity difficulty, since it at least gives a good meaning of a challenge, especially for an infiltrator.
Near the end of the game, you pretty much one shot or two shot almost every single enemy you encounter with the sniper rifle, needless to say on the last boss.


The one thing I disliked a little bit in ME: 1
The MAKO or "Buggy" part of the game seemed interesting, but after you nail down the movement and the four or five combat encounters, you're pretty much stuck going from planet to planet to get the debris or explore the question marks.
That's it, the rest of the game was fantastic to me, except of course the casual crash or stuttering.

Mass Effect 2 - the scanning hell
The first noticeable change in this next game was that the power ups weren't on the right side anymore, but at the bottom.
This took some adapting, even though it was fast, but visually it was better. The combat system was better, movement was better and it felt like a direct upgrade of the first game.

What I hated about ME:2
The scanning. My God the scanning was hell of a task to fully 100% this entire game.
That's it.

Mass Effect 3 - the emotional rollercoaster
This game is where ♥♥♥♥ hits the fan, movement between covers, hopping over the cover which I adored a lot, weapons were meh except the harpoon cannon which is extremely OP. The characters and the dialogue feel more alive, with many choices, and I liked the DLC integration too, both in ME2 and ME3.
The ending really struck me though, even if I watched it very long ago when the game dropped, it felt geniune and raw this time I played it, and I loved it.

What I disliked about ME:3
More stuttering at some places, the way of easily missing a mission on Omega and not being able to replay / visit the area to complete it.
Other than that, the entire franchise is a masterpiece and I truly recommend it to anyone who loves space and likes exploring.

Entered a community server, lasted about 5-10 minutes until I got killed by some dude for "stalling the game". That guy then killed the server's admin, and the server admin started to abuse the power he had. I must say at first I was pretty upset, but in the end it turned out to be a funny experience (because the admin started to slap everyone around in the server, but I was already dead so he did nothing to me)

It was really fun while it was free. Might buy it, since I haven't finished the story. Also a word of advice, if you see something that tells you to put a torch in it to summon something, DON'T DO IT. I learned that the hard way

Anyways it's a really fun and cool game, you should try it.

I really enjoyed Deus Ex: Human Revolution, and I thought I would enjoy Deus Ex Mankind Divided the same, but this one has many problems when it comes to performance. I managed to make it run good after watching like 3 guides on Youtube of how to make it run better. But to be honest, the game seemed pretty short. Hell, even Human Revolution, from what I remember, was longer.
But I said to myself that I would buy this one as well, and so I did. I did regret when I bought it and I saw how poorly the performance was, but in the end I still enjoyed it.

So yeah, really cool game, definitely try it out (if you have a good PC)

This game is basically a second version of Warframe, but it's nice.

Had a fun time with this game, even though I remember dying a lot of times on bosses because I was running out of ammo killing the easy dudes. Looking forward to get the Mankind Divided too this year. Both are really nice games, If you haven't tried them out, you should.

+ I love rhytm games, so this one is my favourite so far.
+ I love the mechanics of this game. Like the way you have to move and fight, and also the fact that you have to think in the same time where to go and what to buy from Shopkeeper.
+ The music is awesome, like literally this is the best soundtrack so far for me.
+ If you could've played with other players, like online (even though it would seem impossible), then it would've been the best pixel game so far for me.

The graphics are really nice, even though if I set to max my pc will most likely blow up. The gameplay itself is nice, if you haven't tried it out, I think you should (if you are a fan of AC series, even better). But yeah, really cool game, try it out.

The game is really nice, even though it needs some attention to some classes, the game modes are nice. After my 3000+ hours on it, I got really bored. The community though... Anyways, try it out, if you didn’t.

Edit: it's 2020, this game is still nice, despite not getting an update in years, but who knows, 2021 may be the year where it will get an update.

Edit v2: It's the year 2022, the game has yet to receive a major update since the Jungle Inferno one, in the meantime, bots took over (although it's at a somewhat controllable status), community servers are being closed one by one but at a slow rate, and the only updates the game gets are either cosmetics, crates, halloween update and christmas update.
I still recommend it, since the game becomes enjoyable once you have a handful of people/friends that can make the game more entertaining.

2023 Update: There's no update.
