Kaidan, Ahsley, Garrus, Wrex, Tali, Jack, EDI, Liara, Mordin, Legion, Samara, Grunt, James, Jacob, Miranda, Thane, Garrus, Javik... Hell, even Zaeed and Kasumi. And of course, Joker. This is one of the few games that makes you care for your in-game friends, they're completely alive with their backstories.

It's difficult to disagree with that. All trilogy - it's something, that I can't even describe. I don't think, that Andromeda will be even a bit closer to past parts.

[@NoneShallDefyMe]

We laughed, we cried, we even had a few angry moments. This series is more than just a video game, more than just a shooter. It's an expertly crafted sci-fi masterpiece. It may have been Shepard's story, but it was everyone's journey along with him that created something magical. We may have new stories but nothing will replace Shepard and his struggle to literally save the Universe. So here's to you, Mass Effect. It was one hell of a fucking ride and I don't regret anything.

[@Nico-os3gf]

Amen!

[@conmadben]

I just wish i could save Mordin. I know you can if you let the Krogans die, but i can't stand and watch an entire race die... That was the lowest point for me in any videogame. Damn you BioWare making me that choice. I will never forgive you!!!

[@dumbwood5820]

(Written today on February 15th, 2023. For future reference) I would appreciate if at least one person would read this and reply. I don't write comments this long, but christ, I have to. I haven't listened to this song in a long while. Here I go: Damn dude. I'm seriously getting more emotional when I look back on this series. It's making me go crazy and I can't stress it enough. My love for this trilogy, the characters, and especially Tali. Thanks to my oldest brother (me being 13, turning 14 in October with him being 8 years older) I first finished this trilogy from August - November 2018 back when I was in 8th grade in middle school. I graduate my Senior year of high school in a few months in May. Time flew by, but at the same time it didn't. Sure, I played games before Mass Effect, but nothing drew me into the medium like this series did. And almost nothing stood up to the same standard. Getting into the series and playing Mass Effect 1 - 3 on my brother's Xbox 360 was something I went into almost blind. I was always aware my brother being a fan when I was in elementary school, but I stopped caring once I reached middle school. Until he rightfully convinced me to play it when I was about to start 8th grade. Mass Effect 1 introduced me to a mysterious and atmospheric world with smart writing, interesting choices, clunky but enjoyable gameplay, and lovable characters. I was disappointed you couldn't romance Tali in the first game (still kinda am), but I'm glad I never romanced anyone in the first Mass Effect and still don't because she's just a treasure. Mass Effect 2 of course is even better and introduced me to more of my favorite characters. Mordin, Grunt, Thane, Legion, and brought back old and awesome characters such as Garrus, Liara, Wrex, Kaiden/Ashley (I chose Kaiden), and of course Tali. Tali's romance was awesome and I still remember crushing over her so hard when I was barely 14. I don't think that will fade away now that I'm 18 lol. The suicide mission, loyalty missions, DLCs, dialogue, and checking on every single character after a mission was something I looked forward to. It kept me on the edge of my seat. And damn, I know this series is about choices, but I can't help but make (almost) the same decisions every time I replay these games. Can't help it. I love my playthrough and always want the best case scenario. The world is like my escape and I would kill to live in that universe. When I started Mass Effect 3, I always heard about the controversy, but my god dude, it might as well be my favorite game of all time (tied with Wind Waker) and in the trilogy. The combat got better, the characters I love were brought back, the story was so emotionally investing, Shepard has more personality than ever before, and Tali's romance got so much better. Like, increased tenfold. It's almost embarrassing how much I still swoon over Tali. Everything from that game just made me love the series more and more. Leaving Earth was an emotional beginning, Kaiden almost dying, reuniting with Liara and Garrus, reuniting with Wrex and Mordin, meeting with Thane, Grunt, Jack, Miranda, Samara, Kasumi, and Zaeed again, curing the genophage and losing Mordin, reuniting and continuing my romance with Tali, meeting Legion again, saving both the Quarians and Geth from annihilation, losing Thane, getting Kaiden back, meeting Javik, losing to that bitch Kai Leng on Thessia, destroying the Cerberus base on Horizon and saving Miranda, and having the BEST PART EVER. The Citadel DLC is a masterpiece. And then... finally hitting Earth. Saying one final word before the final battle to my friends, and my love interest, Tali. Doing the final push with Garrus and Tali at my side, and letting Tali know that she must got back and build herself a home. Gets me every time. The final confrontation with the Illusive Man and conversation with Anderson is powerful. Leading up to the ending, I seriously don't mind it. However, Destroy is the only ending I like. It makes so much sense and it's the only one where Shepard remains alive. It gives me hope that some day he can go live with Tali. Since then, I've replayed the trilogy in full about 3 times, the last of which was in early 2021. Partially because Legendary Edition came out that year. My next playthrough will be on Legendary Edition, for sure. There was a period between 2019 and 2020 where I had a burnout, but I recovered when I watched one of my best friends play the whole trilogy during lockdown in my freshman year. It rekindled my love for the trilogy... and Tali lol. Tali is my absolute favorite video game character and I love her so much. So yeah, Mass Effect changed my life. I will always love this trilogy and I'm hoping the the new game will be good... unlike Andromeda. I'll probably go back and re-edit this comment. If you read this, I thank you so much.

Came to this after the latest Andromeda updates. I am so sad knowing this Mass Effect experience will never be repeated. "The End of an Era" couldn't be more suitably named. It is not a game for many of us, it remains a chapter of our lives.

[@AtgreatR9]

Well said bro. Chapter of our lives. Same goes for dragon age and witcher 3. It really hurts to know that most people will never experience it.

[@TheNatureFreak1]

Mass Effect is unquestionably the greatest franchise of the last generation! Think of it, the first one came out in 2007, which was a powerhouse year for gaming, since a lot of great franchises started back then. In 2010, about half-way through the generation, the sequel, which is even better, comes out in January already, and it quickly became my all-time favorite game. Then the third game came out late in the generation, in march 2012, and while not as good as 2, still pretty sweet (free dlc fixed the ending, so stop whining already). Then, shortly after the PS4 and Xbox One was announced, the Citael DLC came out, as a final fan-service, farewell and a big thank-you to us players for having played this incredible trilogy. It just felt kind of heartbreaking knowing that the Citadel DLC would be the final chapter in the story, and this musical theme certainly mae me feel sad about it. But at least that party afterwards was just the best of the best, putting all the surviving characters together. The ending shot of the normandy in the docking bay after Shepard and their LI had their little talk after the party just made my heart sink a little. I can literally play these games over and over and over. Becoming the first human spectre, exploring the entire galaxy, meeting all your squadmates for the first time, Feros, Noveria, choosing to leave one friend behind at Virmire, chasing Saren, saving the council, escape from the Normandy before it blows up, joining Cerberus to stop the collecors, recruiting your entre team, the loyalty missions, punching the reporter in her face, shooting Conrad Verner in the foot, launching a suicide mission, surviving against all odds, blowing the Collector Base to hell, uniting the galaxy against the Reapers, curing the genophage, ending the war between the Geth and the Quarians, taking Earth Back, and throwing a huge party with your buddies to top it all off. Been a DAMN good ride! This trilogy has truly delivered so much, in terms of great story, amazing characters, moral choices that actually mean something, stellar gameplay and cinematic direction. Mass Effect is more than just a game, it's an emotional journey, an experience unlike any other in gaming, and I don't regret a minute of it! The incredible characters met along the way with epic moments and set pieces truly makes Mass Effect a legendary franchise to be remembered.

I first played ME in 2016, after some videos on KZbin sparked my curiosity. I bought almost all the DLCs (expecially Citadel), started the 1st chapter...and lost myself in what I still consider the most beautiful videogame I've ever played with. The story was awesome (yeah, even the ending), the setting great, the gameplay great but what kept me there were the characters. They became my friends, to the point that today, 4 years after that glorious first ride, as I play the second run, I find myself chuckling every now and then when I meet one of them for the first time in the game, because it's like meeting a good old friend after many years without seeing each other. I think I won't wait other 4 years to play it again, I've missed them too much.

[@zachdods]

Of all the music in this franchise, the wards, uncharted worlds, the presidium, noveria, aralakh company and the love theme... this is my favourite. It’s the one that gets me the most emotional, the score screams - ‘this is the end, and you all know it, so this is for the fans’. It’s such a great piece of music that hits me hard, and that’s saying something because the presidium theme was my alarm tune for like a year.

[@Yessica748]

Garrus was the best, I mean he was ever there when Shepard most needed, he left C-sec to follow shepard, he joing shepard when was under Cerberus, he even left his home and family to help shepard to defeat the reapers. Not like Keidan and Ashley, freaking cowards, first sign of troubles and they run like chikens. ♥ Garrus

[@thundercricket4634]

Garrus was definitely the most steadfast companion. But despite that Wrex is my favorite.

[@trifxrce763]

Tali too

[@mr.anonymous.2749]

Kaidan and Ashley had every right to feel the way they did in Mass Effect 2. Shepard could have been brainwashed by cerberus. They were right to be cautious. Miranda admitted they wanted to implant shepard with a control chip into his brain. Also Ashley/Kaidan are loyal to the Alliance you can't just expect them to drop their career to join cerberus. Ashley/Kaidan are not bad characters and get so much unnecessary hate. Liara also saved shepards life, but that doesn't mean she needs to drop two years of her life to join cerberus same with Wrex. Tali and Garrus are great, but Tali was also a little bit sceptical at the beginning. The hate for Ashley/Kaidan is getting lame. They are realistic characters and i like them.

[@JoshThomas892]

Until recently, I hadn't played any of the DLCs in the series except Bring Down the Sky, because it came with the "Xbox Classics" version of Mass Effect. Simply because I didn't have Xbox Live and didn't want to pay for it just for the DLCs. I just bought the series on PC, along with every story-based DLC; Shadow Broker, Leviathan, Omega, etc; but most importantly for me, Citadel. I haven't even played the Citadel DLC yet, but this theme still makes me tear up because I know sums up the last time I'll ever see these characters I've come to love; Garrus, Tali, Liara, Wrex, Grunt, EDI; Legion and Mordin aren't even in the DLC, but I still remember them fondly. Damnit Bioware, leave it to you.

[@user-yn5rb8ls3b]

26 y.o, just sitting and crying by memories about this beautiful saga...

[@evamagnusson1431]

Just tuned in to this. I found myself sighing. I miss this cast more than any cast in a TV series ever. Show this picture to any fan and they could not only name each character but describe their personalties. Or who they loved, hated or loved to hate.

[@mattsspelman1457]

Don't know about no explosions. But just us, sounds perfect.

[@philippelerouge5596]

Sooooooo beautifull !!!!! I love Mass Effect trilogy. So sad it's ended....

[@JGSWofficial]

This is so nice to hear, cant stop listening

[@spectrestatus7110]

**Sigh** I'm getting that feeling that makes me want to play the entire trilogy over again....for the 4th time....why can't I get away from this game? I have played many spectacular games for years, Metal Gear Solid, Red Dead Redemption, Uncharted, The Last of Us, Assassin's Creed...none of them have this unbreakable will over me like Mass Effect does, Why is this? Mass Effect, why will you not let me go?

[@Demondawg1000]

For me its for a lot of reasons.The series had AWESOME character development. Honestly, i loved every one of my crew members (except Jack really). Tali, Liara, Legion, ESPECIALLY Garrus. In fact, i even kinda liked the Illusive man (even though he's a crazy dick). The writing and voice acting is also out of this world (bad puns FTW). I can't tell you how many times i cracked up while talking to people like Joker. But ultimately, I think the characters and the character devolpment made me never want to stop playing the series.

[@mirage1182]

I really think it boils down to the character development. The whole reaper storyline really gets your imagination going too, particularly in the first game. Few games really do well with the character development especially and making your actions have some consequences.

[@Squadwin]

***** I know right? It's impossible to escape, the story development, the music and the immersion of the first game cann't be reproduced :( And the sequels didn't deliver as much on those parts, but they nailed others. Each game is a unique gem of its own.

[@yesil1026]

After the seventh gameplay of whole trilogy, I finally get bored a little. And I agree with SquishyGamer. Only in my first gameplay I had to kill Wrex in Virmire. Character development is important..I even felt sorry when I learnt from e-mails that Rana Thanoptis committed suicide in Mass Effect 3. I made Charr and Ereba unite on Illium in Mass Effect 2 and later in Mass Effect 3, I had to deliver dying message of Charr to her .I remember the "good old days" when I see Sha'ira the Consort in this DLC..Even these small details attract me personally to the game again. One thing I still haven't done in all gameplays is going renegade though.

[@XxPyroman141xX]

Thank you the guy who create Mass Effect, this is the best game ever made

[@evg1557]

Sounds like Mass effect crossed with The wolf among us - I love it!

[@KamixSam]

Omg!!! It does!!! I love these two games so much 😭

[@CharmingIceDS]

feels ;_;

[@rogelioomargarciahernandez1707]

Liara: It was a great trip Shepard: The best 😍😭

[@ObeseKermit]

Definitely one of the best series in gaming. I cant wait for the next game in the franchise

[@Tiger12445]

One videogame where you could literally fall in love with every character. Hell even Sovereign and Harbinger were great characters. Even DLC squad mates were dope, Nyreen and Aria. Truly nothing short of a masterpiece

[@LoganHunter82]

Still brings tears to my eyes.

[@antoniog.3608]

the best trilogy of all time :') thanks Shepard, thanks for everything

[@J.M.Rosalez]

My only regret is playing mass effect when it was over. Wish I could've shared the journey with the real fans.

[@opusepynomus9995]

There's no Shepherd without Vakarian

[@STR33TSofJUST1C3]

After looking at this wallpaper and thinking for a while, I came to the conclusion that it is possible that all the people on the screen can die in a single run, with the exception of Joker (not counting the six faded on top). You can also go for the lowest EMS, but the next scenario garantees everyone's death on screen (except for one), yet keeping the Normandy and its crew alive. First off, kill off Wrex in ME1, or let racist Ash do that for you. You can lose 11 of the 12 squadmates in the Suicide Mission, but keep a loyal Tali alive to save your ass in the end. Then you can kill off Kaidan/Ashley during the Cerberus Coup. Your remaining squadmates are then Liara, EDI, James, Tali and Javik. Garrus died during the Suicide Mission, remember. During the Rannoch endgame, you ally with the Geth, resulting in the Quarian genocide, and Tali's suicide. During the battle for Earth, Javik reveals that he will kill himself after the war. With an EMS *above 1750 and under 2000*, you will lose your two squadmates (Liara and James) during the run to the Conduit. But the Galaxy will not be completely ravaged, and the Normandy will survive. Choosing Destroy later on will kill EDI. There you go, getting every single squadmate killed without going for the lowest EMS (under 1750).

[@PsyrenXY]

One correction - you need two squadmates to survive the SM. So do Morinth + Tali, since you can kill Morinth in ME3.

[@STR33TSofJUST1C3]

PsyrenXY Two? I thought as long as you have a squadmate to pull you up into the Normandy in the very end, you were safe.

[@bdfornever]

STR33TSofJUST1C3 Is it possible to keep a loyal Tali and a Zaeed alive whose loyalty quest hasn't been completed? In his loyalty, you can kill him in the end. Or Take Tali and Legion. he'll die anyway

[@PsyrenXY]

STR33TSofJUST1C3 You need two for Shepard to survive, even though only one person pulls you up.

[@bdfornever]

A few days ago,m i was planning a ME Run, and try to kill as many squad members as possible ME1 Squad: Ash and Kaidan: One on Virmire, the other one while killing Udina Liara: More about her later Garrus: Has to be killed on the Suicide mission Tali: Side with the Geth in ME3, let her commit suicide Wrex: Kill him on Virmire, or sabotage the cure, he'll come for you and you can shoot him Miranda: Don't talk to her at the Citadel, don't tell her about Kai Leng, she'll be killed by him Jacob: Has to die in the Suicide Squad Mordin: Either kills himself curing the Genophage, or you can shoot him (or let him die at the Collector base, then you can shoot Padok something as well :) ) Zaeed: Kill him in his loyalty quest: go for "saving the facility" or sth, and then you can let him burn to death Kasumi: Let her die in the Collector base Jack: Don't save the Grissom academy in ME3, and then you can kill a Jack-Phantom in the Cerberus Base Grunt: I don't know yet what happens if you don't open the tank, but, if you keep him alive and not loyal until 3, you can sacrifice him to save the Rachni or the breeder (go for saving the breeder, her children will mess with the crucible! ) Samara: We already discussed that, either pick Morinth ald kill her as a Banshee, or let Samara commit suicide in the monastery (and then kill her her last daughter :> ) Legion: He dies either way, but you can sell him to Cerberus, and you can kill him in the cerberus base Thane: If alive, he can sacrifice for the salarian councilor, or you can avoid him in the hospitalt, hen he'll die without some drama. // if you are trying to kill the salarian councilor, make sure Kirrahe doesn't survive Virmire either, the Kai Leng succeeds in killing, Udina presents fake proof that you killed him and Ash/Kai can be killed easier So, these were the obvious ones, we have left: Liara, the sex-bot-Edi, Vega and Javik: Javik will want to commit suicide after seeing the contents of the echo shard ( you can decide if he'll look into it) For Edi you have to pick the "destroy" ending, though I'm not completely sure if that's also frying her circuits in the Normandy My recommendation: go for a very low EMS, take Liara and Vega in your final squad and Harbinger will kill them while they're trying to get away from this Citadel beam, and in the end, pick the "destroy" option (to make sure it's available you have to destroy the collector base in 2) if you also kill as many species as possible, do the following: kill the rachni queen at some point, sabotage the cure , killing the krogan; in some mission, there's a hanar with a vorus, trying to sabotage the defense systems of Kahje, with Kasumi dead, this virus can be successful by choosing to save Bau's life, that'll kill the Hanar and Drell

[@turankettes]

Why is this game just so damn perfect? It's like I had an other life.

[@BlazingLeopard98]

Why does this picture give me the feels... It sucks to know how many characters won't return in ME4. Legion, Mordin, Zaeed, Thane, Javik and Shepard, the one character that you created, all gone...

[@butch1239]

best game for ever

[@odisy64]

this DLC should have been the games real ending.

[@sophiam2095]

Hey man, if the Disney SW sequels have shown us anything, headcanon is in the end the only thing that matters to fans. That is to say, if you want this to be th ending, go with it, Have them ride off to an ambiguous sunset.

[@mrAZcardinal]

Shepard is the best character I've ever played and story I've followed. He is my all time fictional hero.

[@sasha_sparrow]

He should go

[@tommykarate6226]

here because I`m stoked for the remasters.

[@Demondawg1000]

Well i just found my new computer wallpaper for life :). Screw you Skyrim background

[@UselessShows21]

SquishyGamer Legion, Javik, Wrex, Grunt n' Garrus were the best, it's going to be tough letting them go in the next game. :'c

[@UselessShows21]

I never really used them a lot apart from the romance. :3

[@Maxmilian666]

EPICspazzMAN Tali's skills suck that's true, but Liara? Her biotics I would say are even too OP in the game. And couldn't there be a femshep in the pic so I could have a wallpaper too? :/

[@mohammedmustafa7509]

ahahahahahahha exactly the Same here man xd

[@Azron945]

Squishy I've got this on my wall in my room 😂

[@menknurlan]

even the Witcher 3 didnt bring me the same feels as me3 did. On an emotional level it has no rival

[@robertbowser3774]

It will never get better than this 😢

[@asadkhan0702]

Emotional attachment with this music wear the headphones and close the eyes and enjoy

[@journey95far49]

This makes me nostalgic..damm I miss the ME Trilogy. Its a masterpiece

[@javiercarrillo82]

Tali❤❤

[@samtraji1]

Nothing ever will reach the mass effect story. I have seen so many movies and so many series but nothing ive ever watched has touched my inner self so intensive. A drama never seen before. With tears in my eyes i know that i will turn on my console and start play the triology. I never felt so alive as playing this game, beeing part of such a great story. Ready for rumble comander?

[@soniaestherdelrosarioherna3692]

This song makes me want to replay Mass Effect 3...Sooo let's do it! Thanks for uploading this!

[@mauricenguyen7170]

Beautifull, best DLC and game in ME 3 !

[@viettungtran2319]

I've played this game more than 10 times over, and still .. This is the most emotional, epic, inspiring game i've ever experience. Dragon age is good, but ME3, it's just the best.

[@medspecgaming1363]

This is Commander Shepard and I subscribe to your channel from the future.

[@UselessShows21]

I don't want Bioware to end Shepard's story. :'c

[@phantom4cerberus]

He's dead Bioware can't change that...maybe we will hear about him in the next ME

[@Bakman666]

phantom4cerberus Next ME will be set during Shepard’s life time, but won’t involve him/her, however some of the characters from old games may make an appearance.

[@TrustMyTrigger]

phantom4cerberus He doesnt die in every ending ;)

[@SuperLC91]

Hideo Kojima you're an idiot, that's a blatant lie since Bioware haven't released one scrap of information regarding the plot of the next mass effect game

[@random3857]

Now it makes sense why the Jedi Order fell. Because Yoda is wrong.

[@KamixSam]

I just don't know how Bioware can top the masterpiece they've already created. But if anyone can do it, it will be them.

[@quarkyquasar893]

+KamiSam Why do I think I have heard this dialogue in the game ?

[@KamixSam]

Quarky Quasar I’m not sure, I don’t remember anymore haha

[@IPROHAZEEM]

Now I want to buy this dlc just when I finished this game

[@carottefondeurenfer]

Worth it

[@gutspillage]

+IPROHAZEEM Absolutely and totally worth it.

[@nkorslund]

So in case you haven't got it yet .. still absolutely fucking worth it. Best DLC of the entire franchise.

[@IPROHAZEEM]

nkorslund could not say it better

[@VORP125]

I've been listening to this music the whole day and dreaming about every moment I've spent with Shepard and his crew... oh my, I can't stop crying...

[@judge_rekt]

Today, we will board the Normandy again!

[@goodmodss7564]

Эта игра навсегда в моём сердце 😢❤️❤️❤️

[@fujitime1]
