    Game development is way way way way way way more restricted than a story in "forever" department.
    All right, gentleperchildren, let's review. The year is 2024 - that's two-zero-two-four, as in the 21st Century's perfect vision - and I am sorry to say the world has become a pussy-whipped, Brady Bunch version of itself, run by a bunch of still-masked clots ridden infertile senile sissies who want the Last Ukrainian to die so they can get on with the War on China, with some middle-eastern genocide on the side

    Games is an interesting thing to develop due to the fact that the whole team can't work on the same thing at the same time. Eventually, someone will have nothing to do. And instead of them just sitting on their asses, they start development on extra things to add to the base product.

    As long as they're not your regular CoD map pack that you're being charged 20 bucks for, I don't mind DLCs.

    "An epic (from the Ancient Greek adjective ἐπικός (epikos), from ἔπος (epos) "word, story, poem"[1]) is a lengthy narrative poem, ordinarily concerning a serious subject containing details of heroic deeds and events significant to a culture or nation."
    Going by that, all of their games are epic, but then most of the games today (besides FPS) are epics, and i just cant bring myself to committ cultural suicide.

    That does nothing to answer the question asked. What is the difference between full story, and extra story?

    Halfway through London and I'm just about to hit the 52 hours mark. Definitely my longest playthrough yet in any of the games.

    Ugh London. Yeah, I enjoy (until Star Brat) it but come on, it has nothing on the Suicide Mission.

    I still enjoy the ending (yes, I've heard what you all have to say about that before ). Gotta say though, the new Synthesis has got nothing on Control. And that's right, I didn't watch all the new EC endings yet, wanted to experience those for myself. Just Destroy left now.

    like i said, it was fun. but don't you think a game which is known to be a single player experience should have a decent single player in the third installment? that's my point. they should've designed a fun single player with replay-ablity value THEN focused on the multiplayer aspect of the game.

    Be careful now, you might activate the trapcard.

    Having replayed ME3 6 times, meh.
    I know this might be a shocker, but fun and comprehension are entirly subjective.
    This is something we have been spent months debating.

    I agree with Gravath. Fun is very subjective. I enjoyed ME3 and have replayed it atleast a dozen times. So its replayability is just fine imo.

    I may or may not be in the middle of a run through again . . .

    Fuck, let me admit this with BRASS BALLS. I'm addicted to Mass Effect. There. I said it.

    AND NO. I don't want a cure for this addiction TYVM

    ;D Same, starting my 4th replay! 0_0

    I can't handle playing a full game twice takes to long even with me skipping all the talking and playing on casual, though I'll probably have to again if ME4 is going to import saves.

    Btw speaking of how easy casual setting is.... Anyone else find it fun to take down everyone with your elbow?

    No one wants a cure for their addiction problem. This is why we have straitjackets.

    That's okay, I'm right there with you. My friends don't understand how I'm still so hooked on the game. They're all like "I would have gotten bored of it EONS ago, how do you manage to stay interested?"

    Though I just got The Last of Us today and I'm nolifing the crap out of that right now, so Mass Effect is on the back burner for now. XD My mind got blown up when Bronn (from Game of Thrones) popped up on my screen. >_>

    Geez, I can't believe this thread is still going, It's been quite awhile since I've even thought of Mass Effect. I even used to be called Javik.

    Now I'm a Clicker.
