Then again, I find it even more hilarious that BSN is suddenly falling over themselves to welcome Vega after an extremely hostile first impression. Never change, BSN, never change...

First impressions are overrated.

I think that Freddie did a better job of pitching the game than Casey or Aaron or Jesse ever did.
He really understands what stands out about the series and about the characters. He gets the heart and soul of Mass Effect and the idea of living out an epic sci-fi novel in real time and how at the basest level, Mass Effect is about the characters and their feelings and perspectives.

BioWare should put Freddie out as the PR voice for this game. Less Mac and Casey, more Freddie (and some Seth Green would be nice, he seemed to get the series pretty well from his ME2 interview).

You know what, that's surprisingly spot on!

In fact I'd go as far as saying this is the best "trailer" released so far - better than all the E3 and other stuff.

Read my post again. I was referring to fanart. Fanartists aren't exactly known for adhering to a character's canonical appearance. Most of them just turn the character into whatever their ideal man (or woman) looks like for their own self-gratification. If you don't believe me, just search DeviantArt for any character who isn't known for being attractive or beautiful.

I agree and I and surely Bioware too knew it would change with times. I'm glad to see that my intuition was right.

I like Vega already. Sure, he's maybe not the brightest bulb in the box, but he can do his job. I won't only give him a chance, he might be one of the most-used squaddies in ME3, next to my fave character.

Neither are the majority of the Mass Effect squad members. Other characters as well. Shepard being the most notable for not being the "brightst bulb in the box".

I know.
Garrus? Hmm, has a tendency to go on useless vendettas *g*
Shepard? Works for Cerberus while knowing he simply could steal the Normandy and do his own thing.

The bright guys are imo:
Mordin
Liara
Tali

Whatever.
I like Vega... and I'll keep him around. If I can't have a Krogan as wall of steel between Shepard and his foes, Vega can do it easily.

I'm disappointed in myself. The video was pretty good, but what made me most excited was seeing the pet robot dog in the background. WTF is wrong with me?

Good video.

Funny thing is he sounds softer than he looks, not a bad thing, but I didn't expect it.

This. Does anybody know how old is Vega supposed to be? According to the conversationg with Shepard he must be younger, but how much younger?

Don't quote me on this but it might be 26. Can't remember if the devs/writers actually tweeted that, though. I might just be imagining it.

You're actually correct. Mac Walters tweeted Vega's age, if I recall correctly. And I seem to remember 26 as well.

I was unsure from the look of him from the get go.
Then i heard the worst news possible he was voiced by Freddy Prinze Jnr.
Then i watched featurette.
Now i'm deleting my attempted alliance loyalist playthrough & hoping against hope i can isolate or remove him in my canon run.

My opinion of Vega hasn't changed. That is, I have no opinion at all.

[SNascimento]

This video is AMAZING! This is the kind of trailer I want!
.
The part where you can see a huge Turian fleet preparing to face down reapers is great... it just make me think: this is it, this is the game I've been waiting for.

you are absolutely right. BEST MARKETING SO FAR for the ME 3 game.

he said it perfetly- ME characters are ACTIVE not REACTIVE.

They shape and define what our Mass effect story is and it's world.
They make the ME world real,palpable and touching.

Are we going to listen to them?Are we going to help them achieve their goals or are we going to despise them?
Are we going to make love with them or refuse them? what will the reaction be?
What did they do in all this Time?how did they change?......

There was a thread somewhere on BSN about the influence of SKYRIM on future BIOWARE games and about the so called skyrim ERA .........

there is ONE huge difference 

Todd Howard keeps saying (for both fallot 3 and skyrim):
" the world is our character "

.....and in response to this bethseda keeps clattering the world of it's games with thousand of small objects and details.
These details make the world credible. 

BIOWARE games are on the opposite side of the spectrum.

Chracters are the world.

the relation we built with them define how we feel and remember the game, how we care about it.

The possibilty to build these relations over THREE games, in one continuos story arch, is the "new thing" that ME ,Casey Hudson and his team, have made to the gaming world.

IN 10 Years, ME is going to look not so good graphically. It will not be so stunningly cinematic and not so exceptional at all form the visual point of view ...but we will remember that particular choice we had to make, and probably we'll play it again:lol:

i hope EA and Bioware don't forget that.

But Vega looks like as bulky 'dudebro' on fanart as he does in actual screenshots so what's exactly your point?

There's no way that they would have just added the sound by mistake... 

Of course, if Bioware do give some guns that still overheat, I will basically hurl my cash at their direction. 

Definitely not a mistake 

When the weapon has overheated, it will produce those sounds and fire nothing but steam until you replace the heatsink with a new one.  This works the same way as it did in ME2, just with better feedback as to what's happening.  It occured to me one night in a dream (not even joking) that the ME1 beeps should be there.  When I put them in, it just felt... right...  

I think I love you.

Wow those facial animations are god awful.

The animations in general aren't looking too hot. Like the running combat animation are hilariously stiff and robotic.

Lol, "deleting" is such a strong word.

Hm, this guy actually knows Mass Effect.
With that in mind, I'm glad he got a chance to play one of the more prominent characters.

Thank you!  This is a big reason why I prefer RPGs and video games with actual plot over open-world/sandbox stuff.

To be fair it was at an early stage and i've got plenty of other games if i need to import more. Just the thought of listening to that talentless ... ughh

I think the running animation looks fine.
