The biggest mistakes that players can make a mass effect
Skipping side missions, especially in Mass Effect 2
The side missions are common in RPG, but their meaning can vary very much depending on the game. For example, RPG as Assassin's Creed Shadows It has to explore optional content, but most of it is insignificant; Whether the player completes these side missions has a small impact beyond the accumulation of more XP, upgrades and the like. This does not apply in Mass effect Trilogues, where side missions can often have long -term consequences, good and bad, which are found throughout the trilogy. This is especially the case in the second game, where neglecting side missions specific to character can lead to a dramatically different final.
Postponing time -sensitive missions
In a similar spirit, it is important to keep in mind the passage of time in the first three Mass effect games. Although it is common for the stories of video games that have vaguely mentioned the time limits to put their narration with a sense of urgency, it can be difficult to know when it really matters to the players. IN Mass effect Games, there are several narrative touch stones that can change depending on how long the player takes to start a specific mission, so when the characters mention that time is the essence, it is best to believe them.
Ignoring the optimal composition of the group
Mass effectThe struggle is not very complex, but it follows the consistent scheme of rock papers: some enemies will be weak against the ability to overload, for example, while others are particularly vulnerable to Reave. To have a strong understanding of the powers of the party members in relation to Shepard's own (which depends on their class and level), associated with a strong understanding of the probable enemy types of mission, can apply dividends in the field.
In case of doubt, the party with a variety of abilities is usually a safe bet.
You are not going to paragon or renegade
Mass effectThe morality system is one of its most dated functions, but still plays an important role in the overall game and narrative experience; A virtuous player paragon may have a remarkably different impression Mass effect Story than stone cold renegade. Since many important dialogue options can only be accessed with a particularly high rating of paragon or renegade, it is better to stick to one ideology instead of trying to play in the middle.
I try to see everything in one playback
Replayability is the name of the game in Mass effect. After all, it is a selection -based series, so making every possible decision in one run is not only suboptimal but impossible. As such is the best for Mass effect Players who stand under their decisions and fits with strikes, rather than second guessing or try to get “perfect” playback. Things do not have to show up as they expected, and they may even suffer some serious losses, but that's what the second, third and fourth game is for.
