Hello everyone. Hope you all had a good weekend. I am posting this thread about 90 minutes after I intended to because I was just finishing up Mass Effect 3, finishing my first replay of the trilogy. Anyway, ME3 is a pretty good game and its actually kind of funny they allow you to reach satisfying endings to many of the long running arcs in the series (RIP my good friend Mordin and my beautiful son Legion) but horribly botched the final ending. I hear there's a new Mass Effect game in development, and since you cant really up the stakes beyond Cthulu robots killing us all I'd wager on it being a soft reboot. Interested to see how they would handle the incompatible endings in that case, and they'd probably have to introduce a new protagonist which is risky because no one liked Andromeda

Hope everybody has a good week and happy gaming

Star Sector. It's like a space combat mount and blade warband. I put together a little high tech bounty hunter fleet with money made from raiding fascist Syndrian Diktat space stations and hitting their trade convoys en route through hyper space. The ship customization is so insanely addictive. So many weapons, hulls, fighters/bombers, missiles, lasers, and unique ship abilities. And the AI is actually kinda impressive in battle. I have a little swarm of high tech frigates with this zappy emp ability that will disable engines and weapons if it hits an unshielded target. They swarm and disable much larger and powerful ships until my main fleet arrives and unleashes a constant barrage of beam weaponry to finish them off. Addicted.
