[quote]Yeah it's my first time going through the series. Ill be honest in saying that I definitely rushed through ME1 (poor wrex was shot by Ashley) The combat, graphics, and frame rate just felt so dated. Still enjoyed the story and characters though. However when I fired up mass effect 2 - what a difference! Graphics actually still hold up pretty well, and the combat feels so much better. Been taking my time in mass effect 2 doing all loyalty missions and side quests and can't get enough. Character cast is outstanding [/quote] I'm lucky enough to play me1 on pc, theres some 4k mods and and all that good stuff, so it looks amazing it just still plays crappy lmao. Rushing through it means you missed a lot of awesome content though, even the random side missions tend to be mentioned in later games, some more prominently than you'd think. for example theres a section with 4 systems you have to kill geth bases on in each, the instant you go to the ship and to the galaxy map you have a choice what to do with the data you got. You lose the data immediately after that convo. if you see tali first she makes a copy, and its mentioned immediately in me2 when she doesn't trust you, and instantly gains her trust with some new dialogue. many people don't even know you can give it to her, it's never mentioned. cool stuff.
