I did not expect this video to get this much traction. i tried to respond to every comment best i could but i’m having trouble keeping up now. i average like 30 views and 1 comment a video so this is very out of the ordinary for me! thank you for watching and also i’m sorry 😅 i teared up while editing it if that makes anyone feel better 😂 EDIT: - Not everyone loves the same characters, that does not take away from how much YOU love a character. - If you love the Destroy ending so much, go do it yourself 🥰

@Katjakaisa Жыл бұрын

I caught the edit on the "daddy issues" - I am a father, and my emotional damage in ME:LE begins in 2... Project overlord. My son is autistic, he's been doing higher math after he figured out logic... he isn't past 10 yet and he does square roots.... they calm him.... Remember the end of the DLC? This Dad is emotionally wrecked and has to stop playing for the day after that. This story is held dear in our hearts. I cry when I do Grissom Academy in 3....

When you say goodbye to Garris at the end of ME 3 it is the first, last, and only time Garris says I love you to your face. He does start to say I love you during the citadel DLC but finishes it with "your hair" and, "is partial to the rest of you as well." But never actually says the words I love you until, I think, he finally believes he may never see s Shepherd again at the end of ME 3.

This was before people bought pre-orders and sent the industry on a self destructive path. This was when game devs were told to make STORIES! The 00s had the best games because there wasn't money outside unit sales and console sales. When your shit had to be GOOD to be good. I have 100 pristine GameInformer mags sitting in my closet and sometimes when I'm cleaning I grab one or 2 and sit down to remember the good old days. Indie games are making a return. With games like Helldivers 2, im glad the new generation is getting decent games and good communities. Full circle imo. Keep supporting indie and small studios.

Gotta say, while Halo is still my favourite franchise, Mass Effect is something special, it made me feel things i almost forgot i were able to feel, the characters, the universe and the story in general is just beautiful and is nothing like anything else nor videogames, nor movies, nor series, nor books, NOTHING compares to what the Mass Effect franchise is. And as it got in my life it leaved me with a giant hole in my heart that can be just fullfilled by building a little house on Ranoch with a window wich were i can look to the sea Still somehow a steel lizard obsesed with calibration and a immuno deficent purple girl became the two best characters on the history of gaming I should go

You know you have a game that is quintessential and timeless when you can watch dozens, thousdsands of playthroughs and commentary and still the emotional betas hit you just as raw as they did when you first played them. The first time I played through, screwed up and Tali died. I had to put down the controller, turn off the game and walk away fro a day or two. I was not good. Then i booted up a save and went back through the game to do make sure the quarians and geth lived. They were too important to me. That's the mark of excellence.

I'll never forget the first time I watched Mordin die, watched Legion sacrifice himself to give Geth true freedom,... or the amazing fun times hanging out with my bro Garrus shooting bottles in the Presidium. No other game has had me sobbing so much at every playthrough (every year jeeeej :p). Luckily my wife thinks it's 'cute'... 😂 and yes: "Leaving Earth" is just like getting hit by an emotional wrecking ball, every time.

The song that plays during the end of Tuchanka is called A Future for the Krogan according to the Soundtrack. Some of it plays when you meet Eve too.

On my second playthrough of the trilogy right now and I cried along with you in your video. I think ME3 is my favourite out of all the games since it offers so many character interactions and moments. Makes it hit so much harder in my opinion. I had never seen the control ending before, so that was cool. I can see how it works for Shepard’s character, for sure. Personally, I tend to play with a modded happy ending, since I can’t quite bring myself to sacrifice Shepard and break Garrus’ heart. 😅

I always choose destory for the simple fact that Shepard survives if you have 7800 war asset points and because I believe the indoctrination theory well because Shep's eyes are like ilussive man's if you choose control or merge I just think destroy is more canon and less emotional because shep survives if you have enough war asset points

I just rushed through it so is there any way to just get the required assets before the last mission? Also doesn't 5000 assets suffice to make Shepard survive in the end? I really wanted to see Shepard alive in the end but it was just bad luck for me that I rushed it through

The Garrus/Shepard relationship was the best of the bunch. Jennifer Hale and Brandon Keener absolutely nailed every beat.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who started crying during the photo being taken in the Citadel DLC. I'm just sitting there crying, going "I don't want this to end, I want them to remain in this happy moment forever."

You missed Eve's Valkyrie funeral! That grabs and yanks my heartstrings much harder than when she survives.

This game captures "grim" like no other, really puts you in the thick of it not pulling any punches. I know people whine about the ending but I still think this game is a work of art.

It's hard to not cry during ME3 especially if you played all 3. I literally played a playthrough for each playthrough based off of the 3 backgrounds for roleplay/Fanfic inspiration + each relationship and I still tear up during several of the scenes in this video. The people start to mean something to you in games like these. Heart goes out to those that played the game unspoiled and cried their eyes out.

the build up from the first two games all just comes crashing down on you in the third, it’s such a unique emotional experience. i had the unique opportunity to basically do two “first playthroughs” because i played the trilogy in high school and forgot next to EVERYTHING. these reactions felt so fresh.

@Royalscriber5633 2 жыл бұрын

It's cool to experience games like Mass Effect with little to no expectations of what will happen next. I wish I could think of a game that hits the same but only Dragon Age comes close but it doesn't hit the same.

People can say whatever they want about the endings, but boy did they make all the farewells hit like a dreadnought. Peak character development, even in the smallest conversations.
