To this day, Mass Effect is my absolute favorite game and my comfort game. When I start the first part and the music starts, it's like coming home. I was never a sci-fi fan, always into fantasy, but Mass Effect absolutely captivated me.

The Legendary edition has ruined the lightning and multiple VFX in cutscenes, especially in the first two games. We need to preserve the originals, this is top sci fi!

Incroyables moments passés sur cette trilogie emblématique du crpg. Des jeux propres, écrits avec talent, et qui ont la particularité d'être interdépendants, donc de beaucoup mieux s'enchainer que les Witcher par exemple (qui ont par ailleurs d'autres qualités). Souvenir impérissable, ont se demanderai presque la raison pour laquelle elle n'est pas arrivée plus tôt sur cette plateforme. Ces jeux font évidemment parti des indispensables, de même que leurs remakes.

I remember going to a friend's house and sitting in front of the TV. He hands me the xbox controller and tells me "You are gonna love this game". I spent the next 2 hours completely consumed in the game. As a sci-fin fan, this was the kind of game I had only dreamt of. It felt a bit Star Trek, a bit Star Wars, a bit Babylon 5 and with elements from so many other stories, but somehow, it felt truly unique. The trilogy had some low points, many of them in MS3, but I was one of the rare cases that enjoyed the original ending, it felt so appropriate and a subeversion of expectations. I also enjoyed the added endings. Many games have tried to get close to its charm, but in my book, no sci fi story in video games is better than the story of my Commander Shepard.
pls let it have all the DLCS with it i love mass effect and i truly want to own it on GOG so pls add it with all DLCS and i am so happy to see people remember this versen of this game and not the crap legends

The level of detail and depth in the characters and plot is one of the greatest in any franchise in videogame history, only a few like baldur´s gate and very few others are in the same league and i cannot think of any of those that can be considered better in that aspect. the crew is so fleshed out that they feel real, like friends, garrus, wrex or grunt would be terrific for a night in the bar drinking a beer in the real world. The point is, this saga is a point of reference in character creation and voice acting, discusing if the 1rst the 2nd or the 3rd is the better is pointless as the main plot and subplots are intertwined between the tree games and the franchise should be seen as a single game, therefore this edition with the complete trilogy should be preserved drm free for future generations of gamers and developers as a point of refference

It's just become apparent that Bioware is dead, with barely 100 people left to work on the next installment of Mass Effect. While I was originally pleased to see the Legendary Edition, the fact that you must be logged in to play it is typical of EA and I'd like to give it a hard pass. I never got the chance to own the originals and I'd like to just be able to install and mod it as I like. If there's one game I think gog should preserve for all time, it's this trilogy.

I gotta vote for this one because of the sheer audacity of preserving the entire trilogy. Don't get me wrong, I love Mass Effect, it was my true gateway drug to BioWare, what led me to buying all the other BioWare games already on GOG, like Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter Nights, KotOR, and Dragon Age. Honestly, Mass Effect still has a HUGE following, especially when it comes to mods and fixes as the years go by, and I feel that that community would be better served in a place like GOG as opposed to EA.
I've always been a logical gamer. I mean that for me, no game is perfect. There is always something to damage the image, the feeling or the experience of a game. The Mass Effect trilogy changed my mind about it. I'm not saying that these games are perfect. I'm saying that after playing Mass Effect, I realized that a perfect game is not a game without any problem. It is a game that you love beyond its problems. I am aware of the criticisms: the gameplay of the first game, the end of the trilogy... And yet I come back to it at least every year since I played it for the first time. I've never been so much involved in a video game. The characters, the writing, the directing... It has always been hard for me to decide which was my favorite game, until I played Mass Effect. Being able to have it on GOG and own it for real would be absolutely awesome.

Mass Effect is still one of my favourite all time games. I still exist in fan fiction writing circles for the games and still live through the story. Its always amazing how much we aspire to good when we can.
