I’ve always liked that throughout the entire song there’s this persistent note. It gets drowned out by the reaper noise a lot but it’s always there, constant consistent and never stops, much like humanity. Overshadowed by this overwhelming menace, yet we fight never stopping until at the end of the song it’s triumphant and victorious. Never give up.

@@SuperSaiyan3985 The Halo games were a trilogy developed by Bungie, with Reach as a prequel. Halo 4, 5 and Infinite were developed by 343. The Halo trilogy refers to the first three Halo games, which are a self contained story that does have an ending. Saying that there isn’t a Halo trilogy is like saying the prequels in Star Wars isn’t a trilogy because there are movies that follow it.

the original trilogy is such a masterpiece.

This opening is hands down best opening ever. Especially if you consider the progression: part 1 - no one knows about the shit coming - the opening is relaxed. Part 2 - some hypothetical shit is on the radar but we are humans we don't care about shit until it's staring at us. And finally part 3 - shit is here prepare yourselves ladies and gentlemen

One of the coolest intros to a game ever, so underrated. You're completely unprepared, quite literally thrown into the midst of an alien invasion and not being able to do anything but run for your life and try to protect those you find along the way, while the world crumbles around you. It's like being in Star Trek while the Borg invade, it's an enemy so far above you in technological prowess that all you can hope for is that if you fight and survive long enough they'll go away. This is what it feels like to be at the bottom of the food chain. This is war.

Its ridiculous that we don't get a happy ending for Shepherd in this game no matter what paths we take but i can't help it... While ME2 is absolutely the masterpiece its known as... ME3 has always been my favourite of the trilogy 🤷‍♂️

It’s the visual representation of sound travelling with the shockwave. You get a second to think “oh shit” and then it all hits you in a wave of noise and compressed air. It’s very well done artistically.

This opening, and really the entire game itself, just make you feel like we've already lost. I don't care what anyone says about the ending, nothing can ruin that prevailing sense of dread and sadness that Mass Effect 3 has. Literally "We're all fucked: The Game"

Really pays off if you own a copy of Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning. Mass Effect 2 & 3 have bonus equipment available if you have a KoA save on your system. Makes Shepard's pistol look like a pop-gun.

First this is the one opening from a game that made my jaw drop, I am always speechless every time I watch this scene. Secondly at 21:17 the two fires look like a pair of eyes, Kinda reminds me of Saren looking down upon the Galaxy at what Shepard delayed.

My story with this franchise is funny cause I actually played it in reverse order ME3->ME2->ME1 cause I wasn't interested in it at the beginning + less time due to school Despite that, ME3's opening made me instantly interested in the franchise. The attack on Earth made me wanna get to the end so that I could make the Reapers pay for what they did to Earth That's just how powerful this scene was + the OST is a banger

It shouldn't have ended on the the third game. It should have ended more on the 4th or 5th. To really experience the wear and tear a galactic apocalypse can have on cultures, the normandy and its people. Those spare rooms in ME3 would fill up quick.

Really shows how scary the Reapers was no warning exept Shepard, little time to be ready and the Reapers just invade all over the galaxy so fast and presice. Sovereign didn’t lie ”our number will darken the sky of every world” and Harbinger ”you fight against inevibility, dust struggling against cosmic winds” Rannoch Reaper ”You cannot comprehend the magnitute of our precence”
