- Bree played some Mass Effect in 2015, nearly 10 years ago. She doesn't remember her experience playing it, how much she played, or the plot of the series (which she never beat). Due to this, she feels comfortable deeming this an effective First Time experience! Buckle in for a fun time as we super deep dive it together!
catch the streams live here: / breebunn
Thank you so much for unlocking that conversation between Liara and her father. I don't know how many times I've replayed the series and somehow I've managed to miss that whole dialog between those two! The comment about Little Wing really hit super hard... wow
I’ve been loving this play through so much! Couldn’t wait so I finally caught up on the Twitch vods lol. I’m normally YT gang but I’m definitely gonna be there for the live finale on tomorrows stream. Also Bree if you happen to read this, your note taking and just love of the lore/theories has really shone and I can’t wait to catch up on your other play throughs as well🙂
thank you so much :') i'm so glad you've enjoyed the watch!!
The incident at the end with chat is actually pretty common with Mass Effect. People are eager for the content creator to experience the story, but they want them to experience their own version of the story instead of letting the content creator find their own path. Either that or just outright spoiling because they can't hold their tongue, I've seen several other playthroughs where this behavior is called out. I'm pretty sure one of them even decided to just finish the playthrough off stream and upload it after they were done because people couldn't shut up.
Yeah, this is one where it tends to get the best results when people ignore chat until mid-stream breaks or such. Lots of folks in chat are jerks about this game.
I get that thinking, it can be really hard to balance with a game like this. In fairness, her chat is occasionally helpful when they're simply pointing out things that are easily missed (such as a the talking Blasto billboard). She also has a good number of funny/silly people enhancing her enjoyment of the game. All it takes is that one person who doesn't know (or care) how to behave. She definitely needs mods to help at those times.
It's the same in every choice based game. I'd actually argue Dragon Age has the worst I've seen for that though. Probably has something to do with DAI bringing in a lot of Tumblr shipper type crowd
@@KrimsonKracker Sadly, the split seems to be Bree's regulars being helpful vs people hopping in to watch a Mass Effect playthrough being tools (obviously with around a thousand people watching, it only takes less than 1% being idiots to ruin moments).
I didn’t see what was specifically said, but she didn’t actually listen to what would be the consequences of that particular choice. You can’t really be in control of how a person is going to react to hearing something truthful
I love Mordin, he is probably one of the best written character ever. A lot of different shades, very complex, with a well defined and peculiar personality. The dev team made a hell of a job with him.
2:14:38- EDI and Joker's relationship is too precious! It's SUCH good, sensical character writing (to the point where easily predicted Joker's reactions previously). NOBODY could write AI characters the way Bioware did. 😎
So, with the discussion around 7:05:00 about Mordin and Solus, I think the reason I vibe with Mordin far more than Solus is that Solus was mostly still trapped in his cycle of bad choices for most of his two games, while Mordin was far more willing to change his perspectives with new information through his. The player had to drag Solus through every minor improvement, while Mordin barely needed help and would have got there on his own.
That said, Mordin's lifespan in comparison to Solus' also plays a part, probably. When you only live 40 years, you have to be able to adapt quickly. Meanwhile, Solus is ontologically bound to his core nature, that of Pride and when you live centuries, the change you experience over years will expectedly be slower.
There are also their initial motivations. Solus made bad choices out of love, allowing his morals to be subsumed by that love. Meanwhile Mordin since the beginning was making the best of a buffet of really bad choices. I'd argue he's never truly made an evil decision, as even his re-up of the Krogan genophage was done in the face of others being willing to just end them.
At their cores, Solus has some significant elements of "I can fix him", while Mordin is already fixing himself, and all that's left is "I can help him fix his mistakes". Fixing Solus feels adversarial, while fixing Mordin feels collaborative.
(There is also just the fact that I prefer hyper-intelligent dorky blabbermouths over mysterious soft-spoken fonts of ancient wisdom - purely vibes based, no moral reasoning with this one)
Either way, both are very well written characters.
I was meh about Mordin and only really warmed to him during the Loyalty mission in ME2, he still got stuck on the ship because Garrus and Tali are right there. I don't vibe with Solas at all "He gave me the ick" when I first played Inquisition.
In regards to the end of this vod I have to say it's doubly frustrating because the bad actors in chat are being shitty but also without chat we wouldn't have as many 30 minute tangents about the complexity of characters or Krogan Quads. The Alerts also take me out of it every time.
i agree with you on mordin and solas and it makes me think of one of my favorite convos in veilguard which is with davrin about the grey wardens and redemption
some people just don't like complex characters and complex conversations and they have a right to but i've always liked that in my characters, i don't need them to be lawful good
i like javik in me3 too because of that
5:00:05 Damn! 😂
That's the problem with streamers obsessed with their chat.
Your chat absolutely wrecked Grunt's moment and took you out of it. Instead of watching how it unfolded you were constantly looking at the messages and that's truly off-putting.
Although you're more than likely finished with the game by now or at least much further, I hope that you'll ignore your chat in important moments, especially the cutscenes. There's only one first playthrough.
She typically does, and I can confirm after this stream it's back to normal. They go into emote only mode at a few key moments.
Another thing to remember is that all happened at the tail end of an 8 hour stream. But I agree the biggest problem I see all over is the creator glancing over at chat constantly to "stay engaged" in the middle of a cutscene or talking part, but she is also super attentive and is super focused on the game especially with note taking at lore/key moments.
She'll be streaming the Citadel DLC tomorrow on Monday and is hoping to finish the game too.
@@StopReadingMyNameOrElse Out of all the streamers I've seen and I've watched many, JuliaTV is the only one who manages to keep the right balance while still being very entertaining.
I consider her Mass Effect and Witcher 3 playthroughs as the yardstick. The rest inevitably gets distracted by their chat.
Citadel DLC now? She's miles away from the end game. Did she blitz through the game or play the DLC much earlier than she should've?
@@lethalchocobo1886 She just played very efficiently. She has trustworthy people slightly guiding her when she asks for help too.
Pretty sure she is on easy mode so the combat doesn't slow her down much either. All of the DLC and main quests were finished before starting Citadel as well. Probably one more stream after Citadel today.
I'm doing my absolute best. I'm far from perfect about it, especially since I have ADHD, but this is the biggest flub I've had in the entire playthrough of my trilogy so I'm hoping you can look past such a "truly off-putting" moment. Like the other commenter replied, this was also at the very end of an 8 hour stream where my focus can lapse at times, especially when people in chat are telling me I made the wrong choice/didn't pay attention correctly (which ironically caused my lapse in attention). I'm a streamer first, and a youtube VOD uploader second lol. I try to strike a balance in engaging with my chat and paying attention to the game, and I don't always get it perfect, even after doing this 7 years. Some patience would be appreciated.
Again, these are *8 hour streams*. Not 2-3 hour sessions where I can fully focus and dedicate PERFECT attention without messing up once.
Additionally, these VODs are uploaded after the fact, hence the reason I'm already beating the game today (but have about 5 more 8 hour VODs to upload before YOUR viewing experience reaches where I am in real time, you see?)
@@breebunnvods You really don't need to apologize nor justify yourself. You're uploading content on a public platform and people react to it in different ways.
There's a lot to like about your playthrough. You're funny, very empathetic and pay great attention to the lore, not to mention your lovely smile. I've had quite a bit of fun watching you meandering in the Mass Effect universe and I intend to see it through.
It's just that this particular episode truly stung because this was the one time where you truly were out of it and I saw, once again, how nefarious and double edged a chat can be.
Was definitely a good idea to reload to and redo Germa. She looks the best the she has so far in the trilogy!
tbh i prefer liara's friendship just because there is little to no difference between that and her romance besides kissing lol
with the others there is more difference
Aaaw dont spoil it for her! Ridicule her for being stupid but don't do spoilers 😂
Badass
