The original Mass Effect released back in 2007 and has gone on to become one of the most successful franchises for BioWare. Mass Effect is the first in a series that includes Mass Effect 2, Mass Effect 3, and Mass Effect: Andromeda. Mass Effect: Legendary Edition was announced in November 2020 with a May 2021 release date, and is a full remaster of the entire original Mass Effect trilogy. It will be released for PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.

"oh no he's crouching again" is giving me some "Marty he's killing the marines" vibes lol
😂 I just came from that video
@@ElSoloNoco Me too!
Same 😅
Same haha 😄
which video is that?
“It’s up to you now Sheppard. Stop Sarren.” “I’ll be back in an hour and a half with his head.” Sheppard is the ultimate problem solver. Galactic threat? He’ll have it solved before dinner.
Well the regular player offs the guy in a few days.. Still too fast.
“Oh he’s crouching again”
“No Stop!”
These devs are absolutely hilarious! My favourite Dev react to speedrun ever. They seem to really love mass effect but also aren't shy of making a joke at its expense
They're not actually devs of this game. Crystal McCord, Kevin Meek and Renata Cronin didn't even work at BioWare when they made Mass Effect. You been lied to.
@@Ergzay but they did remake it
@@seveneyes77 They remastered it. So all they did was make the graphics prettier.
@@Freelancer837 they said in the video that they changed some stuff, but yeah mostly was making it prettier
@@seveneyes77 Well yeah slight changes, but nothing major like a remake where it's mostly a different game. More just tune ups and things like that
"I'm Commander Shepard and this is my favorite Speedrun on the Citadel!"
Definitely the best dev run I've seen in awhile. Super casual and stays on topic while making fun of what's happening around em. Personality isn't lacking at least between these folks.
>If this doesn't turn me into a meme, I've failed at my job.
Unfortunately, you will never be "Marrrrtyyy, they're killing the marines!"
11:02 that reaction is priceless.
He land in the freaking Normandy
41:00 If you don't recruit Wrex he's not appearing in ME2 nor ME3 and some characters refer to him as if he was dead.
I'm assuming he dies trying to reclaim his family Armour but its just a hunch
@@whoastairs9636 He never cared much about this armor.
Wrex was still in choras den when the geth showed up. He fought his way out with 2 asari strippers and went on the run with them in the terminus systems. This is definitely canon
@@bzqp2 he claims to already have plans to go get it before he runs into Shepard. He states it as he is giving you the quest
ok
"Goddamit Kevin" is really a mood
9:50 - holy crap! It does look like a Reaper! If unplanned that is a wild coincidence!
ngl, it would be hilarious to have games' speedrun world records just be held by the game's own devs.
what a turn of events this will be
You can still ragdoll Saren with explosive round shotguns it’s hilarious.
And now they don't even overheat after every shot anymore
Developers: Here: we made an RPG
Speedrunners: Do you mean this parkour jumping over the roof game?
That "E3 Fight" is a lot different in the Legendary Edition. Now there's a Geth that just chills behind a car thing
Wait the council chamber map is a reaper face!?
Yes
@@antonhallergren588 Double Yes
It's actually based off the species that created the Citadel, aka the Leviathans, the Reapers were made in the image of the Leviathans.
@@xLionsxxSmithyx NEEERRRRDDDD, and your right.
@@xLionsxxSmithyx Ayye someone who knows the lore
18:30 she's on fire with the jokes lmao
Literally one week before the Launch we get this Gem. Like Herbert once said…. IT MUST BE MY BIRTHDAY!!!!
Considering my birthday is this month. Best birthday month ever with RE8 and ME:L :D
Maybe we'll get a TRILOGY speedrun once the game has been out for a while. Just IMAGINE!!
Can't believe the original is from 2007
Time flies, the game still holds up so well tho!
Seeing Wrex and Garrus talking in an elevator is what made me got a xbox 360 lol. It was my first game on that. I'll never forget connecting my console to my parents HD tv with the hdmi cable and being blown away, the game looked so real lol
15:10 Nope bouncy Mako is best Mako.
"Please send me a cake"
Sends her carrot cake without icing.
Vodka cake lady, you're not alone.
The reapers are not gonna be fast enough for this guys, shepard character.
Just ambush Saren when he ambushes Nihlus on Eden Prime. ME1 done.
24:45 I'm offended he didn't pick up Liara yet
Try postponing her mission in your next playthrough. The dialogue will be pretty funny, since she spent so much time trapped in that ruin :D
Love this reaction vid series.
Renata is absolutely hilarious 🤣 vodka cake, tag team tali, favorite dev in these all lmao
HYPED!!!! Can't wait for the remaster ME trilogy.
It came May 14th.
Devs React is the best IGN series. Wow. Much delight.
"We should Tag team Tali"
Alright, I'm listening
"Oh he's out of grenades, what's he going to do now?" "walk like a peasant." These devs are hilarious.
WHAT! absolutely amazing
That music always gets me
Best series imo by ign. Even better than their reviews lol
"A cake with a bottle of vodka in the middle" this is my kind of cake and my kind of friend. Need this in my life
52:30 The long awkward silence of a room full of game developers trying their best not to correct that...
Ahhhhh huh?
^^vvba
The code of legend.

@@daddy7860 sometimes but not always ;)
ya and most online gaming sites leave off the last two buttons as well
up up down down left right left right b a START SELECT
Thanks. Are we gonna see ME 2 and 3 speedrun commentary too before the launch of Legendary Edition?
Loved this.
28:49 hell yeah
This was my favorite one.
Original Devs? But they mentioned that they're for the remasters.
28:49 - 👀
Renata knows what's up... except for the weird Thorian reverse vore thing
A woman of C U L T U R E
Join us in tag teaming tali
What did you think the emergency induction port was for?
“You heard me.”
What an impressive run. Some of my favorite games. Can't wait to play through the trilogy in it's remastered edition.
Pre-order now to speedrun....in 4k!
One more godamn week of work
51:18 HE GOT HIS HOVERBOARD
33:45 It only took me 3 tries LOL
this would be awesome with any of the resident evil games and devs
there is already one out were the devs of resident evil react to resident evil 2 remake speedrun
@@NoName-hm5vw no its pros react
@@legitboitv7719 there's a devs one too :)

MassCrouch Effect: How Many Pixels Can You Handle
Okay, so if mass effect fields stop fast projectiles, why arnt hover boards a thing. Or jet packs anywhere you want since hover/ flying is possible. Or just give us futurama tubes already
hey guys don't forget mass effect legendary edition comes out may 14, pre-order now!
Producers are not developers, that's like having the head of marketing react to a speedrun.
The depressed developer at 18 min is my spirit animal
Love this team! Can't wait for the remake!
It's a remaster, not a remake.
Just thought I'd clarify that to make sure your expectations are in check.
@@SemperFine No, you just like correcting people.
@@deadeyeduncan5022 Lmao, whatever you say, Deadeye Duncan.
@@SemperFine that makes sense, some of the devs seemed a bit dolly dimple... especially that butchered konami code
Best part is heating the devs be impressed gamers themselves
They're not the actual devs though. Crystal McCord, Kevin Meek and Renata Cronin didn't even work at BioWare when they made Mass Effect.
28:43 One of the developers just had a Rule 34 request.
Never thought I'd see the day.
9:08 Not everyone in the galaxy can be a hero, lol
Which ones worked on the original non remaster
This is the original.
At least one of them did as he talked about the original for a moment.
Only Brenon is the only one from the original mass effect and reneta is a "producer" no part in game development
@@XSAGA87 Producers are absolutely part of game development, no game of any significant scope would be possible without Production.
@@MrJimmySnuff Producers don't know the inside of a game as well as level designers, programmers, creative directors, etc. They do not belong in a speedrun commentary.
Garrus quits at C-Sec if Shepard leaves him
1 of the best games of all time! such a mood
pretty sure that if u dont recruit wrex in me1 , u never see him again.
"Have you crouched next to an asari matriarch before, Shepard? Few humans have."
They had to use devs from the remaster because all of the original Bioware devs fled the company.
Tha'd fly if it weren't for them referencing the changes they'd made to their original work.
Brenon worked on ME1 tho
It's literally been 15 years not everyone's going to be available
Ohhh they got another ringer
Comes out may 14. 🤣👀
#1 Thing(s) that should have put in...
Sitting in chairs/Using furniture as intended.
Wait, so they are only from the legendary edition? Where are the Originals?
Imagine mario 64 dev reactimg to speedruns 🤣🤣🤣
I wish more devs did this and also talk with the speedrunner. Their conv would be so interesting
Best series
Game devs just need to get speed runners to test their games.
Not really. The bugs and glitches that speedrunner use often take months or years to find.
@@kwedl Ah, you're right.
@@kwedl it’s more of a community effort, glitches don’t take long to find, but to implement them in to routes etc requires strategising, QA testers don’t do that.
I've heard some places do it. Halo 5 is an example. Apparently they had 3 categories of testers; Standard players, completionest & speedrunners. Obviously they won't find everything glitch, but they know what kinda of geo and types of areas to check to get outta bounds etc. Also to check if they're scripting and load zones can match up to someone just running through a level without stopping to kill everything.
@@kwedl And the speedrunners aren't even the ones who find them. They're simply the ones who combine the specific bugs that can be exploited to speed up the run, and play through it thousands of times to build them into muscle memory.
You shouldn't call this "Original Mass Effect Developers React to Speedrun" if only one of them actually worked on making the game. This is like repainting a house and then saying you built it.
Word. Also, did you know that in the new LEGENDARY EDITION(tm), everything will be better?
It's an imperfect title, but a more apt metaphor would that they completely rebuilt the house, brick by brick. That does make them experts in a sense.
No, it's just a punctuation error. They should have written it like Original Mass Effect; Developers React to Speedrun
@@nicholsonfile They didn't rebuild it from scratch. AI did a lot of the textural work. If it was completely remade the cutscenes would have been a lot better.
@@jossebrodeur6033 idk, seems that's just the loophole they used just to bait people. Intention matters imo
Netrout yo netrout
Brenon Holmes is the only Person of the Four that actually worked on mass effect.
If mean og your right. If your counting legendary your very wrong
The others probably still know the game in and out; they'd need to to have gone through tons of details for legendary
@@sapphiredawn5773 89kklp
"Towers of Annoy"
The feros mako glitch is easier now!
it took me longer than that just to get used to the awful rover controls.
You know nothing, jspp80. Mako is the best thing in the whole game! 😁
C'mon, it's not that bad.
@@when_life_gives_you_limes It really isnt, people are just incompetent and blame the game instead of their own obvious lack of skill.
@@StopReadingMyNameOrElse aye the Mako was easy to use. Just use Aim to steer instead of the actual steering controls and she would go wherever you want no problems
@@StopReadingMyNameOrElse its not bad but its still super glitchy lol, like when you randomly get thrown into the air
Just curious but they all said "of the remaster" so are they devs of both or just the remaster because the title is "original" ones? 🤨
Hey Devs, if you're watching.. we NEED a Conrad Verner comedy spin-off!
Just reuse assets from the games and have him turn up everywhere a few steps behind Shepard so he can get into misunderstandings and mix-ups with the people left to clean up Shepard's mess etc.
Ooh, not long until Kaidan changes his name to "Ash" ;)
Aww. Alternate reality Garrus is so depressing. Mundane life sounds so much worse than the Reaper invasion, somehow?
double team tail?????
"he's not gonna help that guy with his wife's remains, wth?"
ahahah
"100% speedrun" Man, I'd love to see the devs check out Altaadela's ME: Andromeda's 100% xD
I'm more than a little upset he didn't recruit Garrus. Garrus/Tali dream team
So funny how game devs are so often just clearly not gamers at heart. Even right off the bat, gamers would understand the combat sprint strategies right away but their minds are completely blown haha
28:42 I'm pretty sure that would probably kill her
"I'm a producer on the Mass Effect: Legendary Edition..."
Why does it immediately feel like they planted suits to hold the devs hostage?
Yeah they're planted suits, pretty obvious. Producers aren't "devs" they're staff people.
did these devs work on the original ME or not?
Only brenon. Renata isn’t even associated with game development at all, she is a „web producer“.
The other two joined BioWare about 6 years ago and worked on andromeda/anthem.
@@Nikton1987 You gotta wonder why she's even there. She doesn't contribute much to the commentary.
can love blossom on the battlefield?
45:26 teehee
Amazing 😃
The final time didn’t count, he still had more dialogue to finish.
If you look up mass effect speedruns they end the time when you kill sovereign. The game even saves like this, there’s no save afterward not even for the council.
So in ME2 when they ask if you chose Anderson or Udina, that’s because there’s no save data for it since it’s after Sovereign and this last save.
Hopefully that helps
@@sunshinekid022 Valid points.
Why do they all say they're working on the legendary edition? Did none of them work on the original?
Maybe one of them, but none of the OG bioware devs are still at the company. most of the relevant people left.
@@fvillalobos That's a damn shame. And makes me more concerned about the legendary edition.
@@fvillalobos That's not true. At least from tweets I've seen, original ME Devs have come back for the next ME, and some worked on the remaster too!
Thick white ropey strands wins
Why didn't you put it above
Nice video IGN
Uhhh, it hasn’t started..
I'm disappointed that the folks over at IGN got the ME: Remaster devs, instead of the original ME1 devs...These people do great work but their input is...not valuable on what went into the original game. They weren't the ones making design decisions or what have you. Where's the original devs?
I've got this nagging feeling that something important is going to happen on May the 14th, but I'm not sure what...
holes everywhere
