I haven't played any of the Mass Effect game's and until now I didn't know what I was missing. This video has convinced me to purchase the game.
yep good time to jump in with the legendary edition, even a youtube style semi-rush playthrough took me 2 weeks to do all 3 games lol
but like...you just saw the ending then..
you have a wonderful journey ahead of you, friend
Ending of the game also caused big of a drama and hate, which u can still find among bioware communities. The game is great regardless of that.
@@FreedomPLMarcin it just felt lazy ending to a great story. still love the games tho.
My best friend who was a massive ME fan, passed away just before the legendary version came out, he was looking so forward to it. He would have freaked out just how good the game looks, it's such a shame he will never get to see it. His name was Dillion or Dill to his friends, he was a fantastic guy who loves and got on with everyone as long as you didn't talk about Lord of The Rings he had such a thing about that book. I just thought I would share a little bit of him to keep him in the minds of people so he's never truly forgotten..
Sorry for your loss. Maybe in the afterlife he can meet a bunch of other Mass Effect fans.
Qu'il repose en paix.
I bet he’s putting in a good word for us
Rest in peace.
Rest in Peace Dill.

Reaper 2: "Which ones?"
Reaper 1: "Everyone."
Reaper 2: "What do you mean, everyone?"
Reaper 1: "EVERYOOONEEEEE!!!"
👌👌👌
Lmao love the reference
great movie
Even Snake?
what film is it from?
Your Shepard looks like a marine from Halo CE
Personality of Johnson
I was about to say the same thing.
You can customize Shepard any way you want, theres buffs in the pieces of armor that you wear.
I really don't like this helmet she is wearing, no matter what buff is given.
LMAO
Lol
Everyone talks about Marauder Shields but no one mentions Marine who is in command of the entire galaxy’s fighter squadrons
"All fighters on ME!"
Well someone has to be in charge of all the fighters, might as well be him
Had to be him, somebody else might have gotten it wrong.
I don't see where it specifies that, all he said was "all fighters on me" he could very easily be talking to one squadron. Does no-one think of these things or do they want to spend the entire game watching explanations for why someone scratches their balls and not ten seconds earlier.
@@MikeDchy25 you really want to be THAT guy?
I love how Codex descriptions and cinematics of space warfare in Mass Effect are so ludicrously different.
tbh the way the codex describes it is pretty contradictory, this just feels more simple + "movie quality"
That's what i thought when i first saw that scene back in 2012. But to be fair, they at least address the lore with that long range opening salvo. Who cares though, this is space opera not hard sci-fi. The series is filled with handwavium.
@II Arbiter II i mean the ending is one giant handwave. Still remember people complain about it being a cope out LOL
@@haddythegamer I seem to remember reading something about that being a deliberate and conscious choice by the devs: what we see on-screen is just eye candy for the audience, the codex is how it canonically happens.
Lore is one thing and eye candy cinematic is another.
you know, they could've used this remastered to touch up some things, like showing both Quarian and Geth fleets during the approach to Earth or showing more of the fighting on the ground
Lazy moves, they didn't bother fixing that.
@@Vantud391 Did they fix anything? I'm still at ME1 and it looks the same as the original.
If I remember right, most of the the pre-rendered sequences in ME3 were produced out of house by a film VFX studio (I _think_ it was The Mill in the UK). It will have cost Bioware a fortune to get them made in the first place and is unlikely to be something they have any power to tweak at this point. Not without parting with another shedload of money anyway. I'm sure they could have done other embellishing work, but it doesn't sound like the remaster team spent much of any time on ME3. All the effort and money seems to have been spent bringing ME1 up to spec.
They could, but that costs money.
They are lazy and only aiming for the money, milking the gamers again and again
If they made this into a show with a giant budget, the right people behind it, and stuck close to the games… guaranteed it would be a world wide hit and an all time best. I just want as many people to fall in love with this universe like I have!
I wouldn’t trust any studios with this IP for a tv show or film. Just look how dodgy the Halo film that’s coming out looks 😢
@@qzbnyv Ironically enough, the Halo TV show would have been been a rather decent Mass Effect TV show.
Would rather have seen Apple+ take this on, than mucking up 'Foundation'.
Honestly mass effect is better than most shows
@@VelociraptorsOfSkyrimthe halo tv show is shit and the writers literally ignore the material because of their ego
It honestly makes me tear up, seeing all the species work together.
That was really amazing, seeing it for the first time. No wonder the Protheans didn't make it. They were literally like "Everyone for themselves!" and were surprised it didn't work out
Humanity superior though, terra invicta
@@trevormiller7527 Uh oh he’s been radicalized by Cerberus!
@@24Fanboy cerberus was mostly right, with exception of using reaper technology
@@trevormiller7527 nooooooooo way dude 😂
That opening scene with the entire armada firing on the reapers.... CHILLS...EVERY...FREAKING....TIME
Especially if you remember that sergeant drill in ME2 on the citadel)
That "Holy shit, she did it" form Admiral Hackett is so heavy on my throat. That scene alone is one of the highlights of this game I'll never forget
I've seen this scene so many times, in-game and on YT, and it still gives me shivers every single time.
I was 17 years old when I combined the forces of the galaxy for one final stand against the scourge of all known sentient life.. This cut scene made me cry straight up when I first saw it. For 2007 the graphics were unreal and it was just such a powerful moment in my life. I hope our future generations see the stars, and persevere through whatever the universe throws at us. God bless humanity.
If we cant leave in the near future.. it will be harder and harder to see the stars sadly. Light Pollution rises every year around 10~%. Here in my area.. you barely can see anything sadly.
Mass Effect 3 was released in 2012.
Admiral: "OK Shepard, you know the Reapers better than anyone. What's the plan?"
Shepard: "Everyone group up, in really tight formation, then shoot them until they die!"
Admiral: "Uh... you do know space has, like, three directions, right Commander? And no friction? Maybe we could try long-range multi-vector bom-"
(Shepard passes renegade check)
Shepard: "THIS IS MY SPACE BATTLE AND WE WILL FIGHT IT MY WAY NOW SHUT UP AND MAKE WITH THE PEW PEW YOU NERD!!"
Garrus: "Uh, sorry about that. Shep's not been the same since Cerberus Frankensteined her back together. Need some help with the calibrations?"
As in SAO Abridged:
"Group up and hit it till it dies!"
Well they were short on time and needed to get as many soldiers on Earth as soon as possible
It wouldn't have mattered anyway. Reaper fleet outnumbered, outgunned and outranged them. Their only hope was to break through enemy blockade land troops on Earth or citadel and hope that their wonder weapon Crucible worked.
Honestly annoying but he climatic showpieces look at the wow pictures !!! Could be worse.....Battle of Winterfel...Catapults infront of their army and their entire army outside the castle :D
I kinda feel like the LE should've included more space scenes and show more allies helping out on the ground. Plus the full cut conversation with Anderson at the end. Bit of a missed opportunity imo.
How many remasters have you played where entirely new content is added?
There are mods that also did it somewhat better.
@II Arbiter II Is that the one where he talks about not having children of his own? They removed that because it doesn't fit with the lore at all because it's mentioned that he has a child with his Ex-wife
@@Aegoram They did add a few things the game.
Like the part at 29:06. That was new. The game always ended with the Normandy flying off.
There are no words to describe how I felt watching this, hundreds of hours put into the trilogy starting with ME1 and going through each game getting as many allies as I could and completing every single mission and it all came out in this single glorious moment
Dude for sure, I was glad I brought the Geth into the fold, even though it was a pain in the ass 🤣
I still remember back then when I first played this. I went through all the galactic drama & lost some of my dearest friends to assemble the ultimate fleet. Every chapter of the final mission felt like Stalingrad, only difference is that if we fail this, we can't just retreat across Volga. If we fail, everything we've ever loved will perish. When people bid farewell, most of them say "good luck" because we don't even know the odds of us winning.
The emotional weight of this game is so immense.
Star Trek has a phrase that should be a warning to anyone wanting to take Earth. "Don't push the pink skins to the thin ice."
@@dixievfd55 That's a nice phrase, I like it
There are only 2 things I wish this game did differently in the ending. I wish there was an option to get the Salarian Fleet so we could finally see what their ships are like, and I wish the Destiny Ascension actually used that "huge weapon" it reportedly has.
You can get the Salarian fleet, it just requires sabotaging the Genophage cure (only worth it if Wreav leads imo cause he's actually fooled and and he's a piece of shit)
@@BlazinVoid59 but you and I know theres no way we would fail our friends Wrex and Mordin right?
@@WoLFiLoLoL973 If Wrex died in ME1 you can always save Mordin if Eve is also dead :)
@@WoLFiLoLoL973 yeah but thats the point. People saying their choices don't matter yet as soon as their choice makes an impact they moan that they can't get everything they want
You can also acquire a Salarian fleet element, even if you didn't sabotage the genophage cure, if you saved the Council in ME1, and save the Salarian councillor from Kai Leng during Cerberus' attack on the Citadel. Otherwise, the best you get from them is Major Kirahee, provided he survived Virmire, and some STG elements on your side.
This ending alone should deserve a full movie. The rest of Mass Effect can ba a long running TV series.
Just imagine how beautiful this ending could be if we had a really good movie or show,
The Most insane thing about The 2nd Battle of Earth was it was a suicide mission all around; literally, no one had a chance of coming back... It was the push-forward tactic, and Everyone from the Navy to the Marines knew it. So to see the fleets come out of the relay and just reign down fire was beautiful and poetic, showing no matter how bad shit had gotten, everyone knew what they were fighting for
Again Bioware didn't fix geth fleet not showing when you got full war assets. Ugh.
The audio at 6:13 is still scuffed too
Really? They showed on mine with Geth and quarin. Sorry can’t spell it for shit
@Kc Ryan Nah he's right. If you save both fleets, only the Quarians show up in the cutscene and only appear on Earth at the FOB. Had to use a mod in the OT to have both show.
Not all fleets are shown, that's not a bug
Were they suppost to fix it because mine didnt show both fleets either
Now this is better space battle than rise of skywalker
That's like saying a better love story than twilight. The lowest of low bars.
Everything is better than the rise of Skywalker
Even I am better than that. Everything and everyone is better than the rise of Skywalker.
Don't compare this masterpiece to cow pie of a movie
...because this actually makes sense?
I am 51 years old and I have played many games since the days of ping pong, space Invaders and defenders and on through the years, Atari, Genesis, Nintendo series up to Xbox PlayStation, but in all of my years of play even through my military years this is one of the greatest stories that has ever been told in my gaming history. It is like living another life of action and excitement and once you are immersed there is no getting away. If you haven't played this game and you want a good storyline to me this is one of the greatest stories ever told. Eat your heart out Star wars. N7 forever.
You are sooooooo 100%RIGHT. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

yeah I dunno who named our galaxy after a chocolate bar smh
Ask God
We need to change our Galaxy’s name lmfao
@@AFGuidesHD tell that to Mars! That shit is tasty!
@@AFGuidesHD The actual origin is a lot more amusing.
5:05 I honestly feel so bad for that one marine ready to drop and instantly gets hit as the door opens and he isn't ready. It even shows how horrifying and how deadly brutal the combat must have been for the resistance this whole entire time that Shepard was trying to bring help for Earth.
Probably feels just as gruesome as the beach landings in Saving Private Ryan. Only, the bad guys shooting are devastating mutated laser aliens with the objective of annihilating all sentient species.
Every one of those shots that missed could've taken out an entire city block on earth.
The atmosphere disintegrates anything that falls to the surface
@@wilgriaus not really.
@@wilgriaus Nah, it's mentioned int he codex that stray shots can hit a planet's surface.
@@alexanderthompson7164 guess I overlooked that little detail. Oh well, file it under the thousands of other things that don’t make sense in the final hour of ME3 😂
Mass effect ships have target locking computers id like to think the shots that go pass the reapers in the cutscene actually hit the targets behind them we just didnt see it or it hit reaper ground forces.
who the hell forgot to put Jenkins on the memorial?!
Everyone forgot Jenkins... Poor lad forgotten 😔
I was wondering the same thing......
He's on the SR1 Memorial
No one, he's on the memorial you just haven't looked enough.
I looked for Jenkins every time there was a new name added to the memorial, dude keeps getting shuffled around
That moment when the fleets pour out from the Charon relay, and the camera focuses in on the Destiny Ascension gives me goose bumps every time.
Wonder why they didn't try to mass produce the Thanix cannons for if nkt all most of their ships. I know experimental but the Normandy had them and proven that they do work. Imagine the Turian dreadnoughts with such firepower.
Also kinda sad that they made this whole leviathan dlc and they have basically no role in the final battle. They don't even make an appearance on the ground of them taking over reaper forces even briefly to help Shephard.
I'm gonna go out on a limb, and guess that it wasn't so easy to mass produce safely.
You do remember the gameplay where we had to strip several planets of resources to build that right? While it might not be the exact amount I am pretty sure they are resource heavy weapons, hard to gather them during a galactic genocide survival war...
They were betting everything on the catalyst so yeah if everything went to shit here I doubt they would have a second chance lmao
@@QuarianGuy most if not all of those resources went to the crucible. Also most of the species leaders knew of the repear threat specially after the ME2 dlc arrival. The Alliance (under Anderson) had been secretly preparing. Hell they even helped keep the Andromeda initiative a secret. With all the mining outposts they had and the schematics for the Thanix im surprised not one species decided to mass produce the cannon. I mean hell not even the Volus and they know how to get shit if they want it.
@@johanneshjortshj8646 its a weapon that fires molten metal at high speeds and temps just like the reapers weapon. In fact I think it was based off it. Given the time frame between ME2 and the events of ME3 and the successful trial of it on the Normandy (cause it was experimental at the time) id say no reason to mass produce it even if it wasn't safe. It was better than the guns they currently had. Honestly the only real reason I can think of is the power output it requires. The Normandy had a much more advanced core. Thats why I say put it on dreadnoughts. They have a core that generates similar quantities of energy as the Normandys core does. Even if you just fit two on there it would have been a huge advantage in the battle for palaven and earth.
Hell the Asari who were the most advanced could have probably mass produced and fielded the weapon in large quantities.
All I'm saying is that it seems like the upgrades that the Normandy got in ME2 that helped them against the collectors who had technology almost on par to the reapers went unnoticed or disregarded by the other species. Even the ones who believed the reapers were real and "prepared".
now this game has been around for so long and it still brings tears to my eyes when I see shepard's name being hung on the board
Tali refused to put the name of my Shepard on the wall :)
@@amz7828 Have'nt played LE yet, I wondered if they kept the ending where Shepard "maybe" survives if you do it perfect
One of if not the best scene of a fleet entering for battle ever!
ending still suckes ass
This Sci-fi Universe would make a great RTS series.
RTS?
@@ggt47 Real time strategy
Ahem, get Stellaris and get the Mass Effect: Crucible mod. You're welcome.
@@Wave_Boi this^^ I think the is one for Homeworld, Star ward empire at war and sins of a solar empire (a certain DLC I can't recall). Make sure before buying, my memory is crap these days
There are several games with ME-mods. A good start is "Stellaris" as it pretty much allows replaying the entire thing (either via Scourge or AI rebellion) and there's a Mass Effect mod that gives you several ships. You even can found your own Council, if you like.
Still the biggest rendered space battle in sci-fi history!
This kinda reminds me of how every Star Wars battle went, Except these guys actually hit thier target by 99%. Cool vid. Thanks for posting ✌.
I just realized the kid at the end is literally just a scaled down adult model lmaooooooo
That's because it's really difficult to draw and animate children to scale which is why most developers just scale down adult npcs
No matter how many times I watch this it still gives me the feels.
man i wish they showed us the Quarian Fleet and Geth Fleet flying side-by-side
2:07
Turrian: wait who said that?
Asari: was that a human?
Human: wait who the hell has seniority right now?
Geth: this unit believes seniority should go to the humans.
Asari: I’ve been a pilot for 420 years so where do I stand in the command structure?
Quarian: wait do we even have fighter craft?
Salarian: a thought occurs to me, this fleet is made up of every allied species so why are there seemingly only human fighter craft present?
Turrian: WHAT IS GOING ON!?
Human: wait are we really having to follow a single fighter out of the thousands we have here? That seems...inefficient.
Geth: this unit believes this attack was poorly planned...
Krogan: Ha! That means we’ll have more fun!
LOL you sumarize the whole damn game!
Krogans are more on the ground in the face combat
Krogan would have fun regardless of outcome
Only humans use carriers. It’s in the lore as a uniquely human class.
@@sirilluminarthevaliant2895 _Dedicated_ carriers. Dreadnoughts have fighter bays.
If not for the old rushed endings and starchild the game would have been near perfect for me.
Same way I feel. The star child ruined it for me. Not to mention his "I made robots to kill you every 10,000 years so you wont make robots to kill you every 10,000 years!" logic was laughable. Still love the trilogy, just the last 15-20 minutes was pretty stupid.
ME3 is my favorite of the three games until just after Anderson's death. Still can't believe with all the great theories they could have gone with, they chose 'mystical child AI'
@em m I totally disagree Mass Effect 3 was a mess from the moment we left Hacket and Anderson intro.
Mars
Palavan
Rannoch
Citadel
Cerberus Base
Earth
All felt far below sub par. The ending was just another part of a badly thought out badly executed game.
Well if you rock with the indoctrination theory (excellent video they made for that btw) which was before BioWare made some edits to the endings and some additional cutscsnes. I still prefer the indoctrinate theory honestly
@@pookiipower435 Like many people i thought them having to reap civilizations to make new reapers made more sense. Since the story seemed to point to resources becoming scarce.
Does it bother anyone else that we don’t get to see the geth and quarian fleets flying side by side???
Anyone else feel like when you first see Shepherd that she was about to say, "Buckle up, we're in for some chops."
still to this day, in my eyes, the best space battle entry. the constant popping of ships showing up. amazing
still one of the best series I have ever played.
God I cried when the kid told the Stargazer, tell me another story of the Shepard 😭
a story where Shepard and Anderson failed to get inside the Citadel and Reapers annihilated the remaining fleets.
i mean if you play the original shepard didnt die, at the end he/she moves in the rubble=there still alive.
@@shadowglass14 Depends on the ending you choose (you have to choose destroy so Shepard gets the chance to survive) and your war assets have to be high enough, otherwise they die no matter what
Why would they think small arms fire would stop a giant skyscraper with a death ray?
They didn't. The goal was only to distract it at all cost while another small team was preparing heavy shots. And there was only few rockets left so distraction was very important.
To strain the mass effect shields as much as possible. It's under the same principle as the A-10's gun being able to penetrate modern armor. 1 30mm cannon round ain't going to do anything but dent modern armor. 1000 30mm rounds impacting less than a second apart in roughly the same area will
Their goal was to distract the reaper but even if that's not the case it's a better choice to die fighting when the alternate is to just lay down and die.
If I'm going to die to a giant space crab I'm going to try to damage it as much as possible even if it amounts to me scratching the paint off a really hard to reach spot for it
If you knew this thing is going to kill you, your familly, friends and everything that lives with no mercy you'd fight it with a stick. There's no other way around.
us: "tell me another story about the shepard"
bioware: "its getting late but, okay...one more story"
many years later... mass effect 4
OH YEH
now without shepard edition
so what's the canon anyway
@@hartantoanggoro Maybe a story about finding Shepard? Who knows...
@@CuantaIncoherencia based on trailer liara didn't seen with synthetic sign so ending green is quite non canon
"one more story. This one is about a biotic god..."
14:47 Everyone fights knowing that they will die and this last hope of all living things appears. And this epic music
The Mass transit thru the Relay was the single most beautiful scene in the trilogy. Shepard's half assed commands at the onset of the battle make me cringe so hard though. Writing REALLY took a dip there.
The fact that Halo haven't made anything like this in more than 20 years and almost 20 games enrages me very much.
What are you talking about? There’s only 14 games that have been released for Halo. Some of them aren’t even main series halo.
@@CN-qj3cp I think he'd talking about a huge battle of some description.
I think Halo is a trash game series but I do think it has an amazing and interesting story
How not? Did you played Halo 1-3 and Halo 4? It has more story than whole Mass Effect
@@AjdamusMagnus I said Halo has a great story, I just think the games in general were not that good.
Damn! When Anderson says "You did good child, I'm proud of you". That part always breaks me...
That has to be one of my favorites scenes with all the fleets coming through the relay.
it's amazing how little I remember of the leadup to this battle- I have been watching a youtuber playing ME1 and remember even some minor engagements readily- but the ending to ME3? utterly underwelming.
damn I almost forgot how glorious it was when the entire fleet that Shepard gathered arrived at earth!
That armor set is awesome. It reminds me of the Starship troopers movie.
I see more of the Marine's' look in Halo, but to each their own.
@@MilanTehVillain Oh yeah i see that too. It's just that Starship troopers is more appealing to me 🙂
Would be badass to see like a
clone wars moment u know Shepard standing on some destroyed rubble.
Duel Wielding Blaster Pistols And transitioning into a N7 Blaster Rifle
Shepherd killed ghost and roch
@@wiewior4557 that's different shepherd XD
Game:
Me: I said every single Space Ship ever
that space-battle is just pure LOOOOVE
I get to watch all my comrades die in front of me...this time in 4K.
We did good...or am I all that's left out here?
(Marine)“Roger that all Fighters on me”(2:07)
Goodbye Normandy crew, see you in mass effect 4.
Gonna be sad if the theory of 4 being set hundreds of years in the future because Liara seems older, is correct.
@@mfenix88 but then it wouldn’t make a ton of sense for me. Last we saw that teaser, it showed us that N7 piece from the armour, plus they confirmed that the “Destroy” ending is canon, and why bother teasing us at the end of the game where shepherd is supposedly alive under a bit of debris? (it happens in absolute perfect ending when the name plac isn’t put up on the memorial wall
@@splatoonistproductions5345 I agree mate. The theory only stems from the fact Liara possibly shows signs of aging but others have dismissed as simply being a high quality 4k CGI cinematic trailer rather than in game.
I do agree with you. I hope they released the LE so we could import our save from the first 3 games. Would explain why they made it more difficult in the LE to achieve the ending where Shepard lives
I forgot how much I loved that particular helmet.
I still laugh at the Stargazer and child at the end... The child is totally the same adult asset they just shrunk it down and figured it was good enough...
@@Daniel_Rood You're welcome.
Generally better but originally it was darker which made the atmosphere.
This scene was such a pay off, it brings a tear to my eye
I played mass effect for the first time through the legendary edition and I got to say as cool as it is to get the whole galaxy together I just wish I could’ve seen the actually effects. Like those living tank Elcors on the ground shelling the enemy or asari snipers providing support on the ground, or the cloud bombardment fleet and Cerberus fighters play out in space. I especially felt let down that all the shit I did to get troops for the ground like all those mercs from omega never showed up. Though in hindsight I guess it is a bit to ask for especially now
The fighters used by the alliance pilots are reverse engineered Cerburus fighters if I remember correctly. (not as powerful manouverability wise, smaller cores and fewer thruster but also less expensive)
awesome!
been a while since ive played mass effect but ill get back in the game
My son was a huge fan of Mass Effect, I held out for the Legendary Edition and I was glad I did excellent game.
The Normandy had Thanix cannons, it could have taken out that reaper like it was nothing instead of flying in to rescue your team.
That “Reaper” is the oldest, largest and most powerful Reaper in the armada. Do you really think a single Thanix cannon can take that thing out? If anything it should be Harbinger who should have destroyed the Normandy, I guess plot armor is just too powerful
@@mingQWERTY Thanix cannons could cut through kinetic barriers, shields and armor like it wasnt there. It's the reason Turians scrambled to recover what was left of Sovereign after it exploded and cover the salvage operation as clean up to resume citadel operations.
@@captain0080 thanix cannons are reverse engineered Reaper MAs, they aren't one hit wonders to reaper capitals and they dont just go through KBs either, Mass Torpedoes do. The Projectiles that comes out of thanix, is a liquid metal suspended in a ME field. Also the entire alliance fleet was actually retrofitted with thanix cannons which allowed cruisers and Normandy SR2 class heavy frigates to one shot Reaper destroyers.
@@Duke_of_Petchington acoding to the codex entry they go though any known shield or armor, and it definitely can destroy a reaper with a well placed shot, just like the original Normandy managed to make Sovereign explode with its frigate class weapons once its shields were brought down.
@@captain0080 the Normandy sr1 used a mass torpedo on sovereign I believe. Reaper Capital Ships (Battleships/Dreadnoughts) can’t be one shot. But cruisers (with or without thanix) can one (well placed) shot reaper destroyers. Normandy SR2 Thanix didn’t even one shot the collector cruiser.
This whole scenario reminds me of the Battle of Yuuzhan'tar (final battle of that war) during the Yuuzhan Vong war from Star Wars Legends.
8 years have already passed, and no one has been able to better depict the space battle, as shown here.
I still get chills every time I see this.
what a clusterfuck of awesomeness!
When you think about it, even if you fail to beat the reapers, in the end Shephard and everyone else probably does enough damage and kills enough reapers to more than likely give the next generation of the Milky way a chance at beating them, assuming you choose to just leave it to the next generation to choose instead of just destroying them anyway.
I have never seen this before...I love it!!
I have never seen or heard of this game until now but boy does it look good
i saw salt factory's video on me1 and clicked off the first 5 mins to buy the game myself. I had no what i was missing for so long. the first and second games were pretty good but it was the 3rd one that really drove everything home. Felt like i just finished playing halo 3 for the first time.
The krogans making families though, got to love it.
Just finished it . 1 of my all time fave Trilogys
It's been too many years and it still hurts.
People can say what they want about ME3 but this scene is absolute gold.
Honestly, thank you for uploading this. This just honestly makes me cry good tears. To see such an amazing game get remastered, and have the best ending, It makes my heart warm. Grew up with the series, and honestly wouldn't change a damn thing. Keep uploading things like this!
I had forgotten... Thanks
This one still hits in all the fun places 🙈😭
This was the last of the really good Mass Effect game in the series, it was epic!!
How is Marauder Shields doing in 2021?
It's amazing that the Leviathans were able to program in their own hubris when building the first Reapers
If you have Mass Effect Legendary Edition on PC the "Take Earth Back" mod is a must have.
Huh, I just realized something this far down the line. Though this is by far my favorite cutscene in the entire trilogy, if the allied fleet is coming at the reapers at that angle, where the Earth is somewhat BEHIND the reapers.... then every mass accelerator shot of the entire allied fleet that MISSES ..... sends projectiles with the kinetic energy of about 38 kilotons of TNT raining down on the earth........ you got to assume that there is going to be a hell of a lot of "two and a half times the destructive power of the fission bombs that destroyed Hiroshima" taking place down there; we're talking nuclear barrage from the very fleet sent to save them. o.O
Shhhhhhh🤫
my boy joker trying franticly to find shepard. i may have teard up a bit there.
Beautiful.
This is honestly my favorite scene in the entire game series, u spend the whole game trying to make everyone get along and once u finally manage to get everyone to cone together its a behemoth of an attack that completely throws off the repears its like something straight out of a 80s movie
Been playing Mass Effect since the very 1rst. My total attack strength at the end on ME3 was 120%. With no dlc. When I ordered attack &(this only happens when you're past 100%) 3 Reaper's were totally distroyed on first strike. When you play this game again. It is truly a sight
Cool helmet reminds me of Halo CE
Glad I'm not the only one, on both counts.
Ive completed the first 3, but this is new to me. Better than most tv shows I watch.
This scene got me pumped
Tbh I like it when the Reapers are destorying the alliance fleet manly bc it makes more sense.
why does bill pullmans speech from independence day seems like it fits this so well =0
"Good day. In less than an hour, starships from here will join others from across the Galaxy; and you will launch the greatest star battle in the history of Citidal Space...Citidal Space, those...words should have new meaning for us today. We can't be constrained by our differences anymore. We stand united against our Common Enemy. Perhaps, it is Fate, that today is First Contact Day, and you will once again be fighting for your freedom; not from subjugation or assimilation or condemnation...but from extinction. We're fighting for our right to live. To exist. And when we win the day...this day will no longer be remembered as a conflict between two races, but as a Day when the Galaxy declared with One Voice "We will not be forgotten! We will not lay down and die! We're going to survive!! We're going to see tomorrow!! Today, we celebrate, our Existence Day!!!"
Superb
For me, you can take every great film, the epics... and it cannot match this moment, you've fought, battled, decided, and you get to here. Your heart is in your mouth, and you think... Oh God, what am I in for? This is a masterpiece and the battle... my God, intense doesn't cover it. The high watermark of gaming, when it transcends everything and you realise... this is better than anything you have ever experienced... and you are scared out of your wits but you FIGHT on. I've played through Mass Effect six times, it never, ever gets old. Legendary Edition is perfect... because it is... a legend. Oh, and Mass Effect 2 - the greatest computer game of all time, it will never be beaten.
