And so far, NONE of the trailers/promotional material have shown a single Reaper being even damaged by non-Reaper ships.

That Thresher Maw looked like it was about to throw some old-school hurt on that Reaper.

Not the only one - I'd call it "uncanny valley" face.

I know a kid who lookes exactly like that.
Not uncanney valley - just an unusual face. The light brows only add to the effect.

Deus Ex Machina device confirmed; Reapers attacking Earth alone number in the hundreds (several hundreds). Majority of the Alliance fleet is already wiped out (and very easily/quickly, too).

And so far, NONE of the trailers/promotional material have shown a single Reaper being even damaged by non-Reaper ships. The best we've gotten is a glimpse at Shepard wounding (maybe, it could just be a Hope Spot) a small Reaper on the surface (with orbital bombardment support).

So unless there's some "Just Add Water!" new superweapon that can be instantly installed to at least several ships, it's down to a Deus Ex Machina ending. I really, REALLY hope I'm wrong.

What's wrong with a Deux Ex Machina/McGuffin? Especially taking into account how the Reapers were set up since the beginning of the series. What were you expecting?

I actually found a favourite, the human to husk conversion, great scene.

Yeah, that was my favorite part too.  It'd make a cool gif.

I find it weird how the armor just disappears. I guess it's a fast-forward type of sequence.

Once again, Bioware is way too
human-centric in this trailer. Not a single alien species is shown. It's
kind of a letdown how the game has suddenly turned into a love affair
of trying to save Earth. This is a far cry from ME and ME2 where we are
constantly reminded that humans are but ONE race in the galaxy and that
Shepard will need the help of the other races in the galaxy to face the
Reaper threat.





I realize Bioware is marketing towards the
herp-a-derp CoD community out there hoping to reel in additional
interest in the game, but it's sort of an insult to long-standing fans
of the series who have really been taken by the postmodern perspective
of the franchise.





Here's to hoping it won't be like this in the game. Because if it is, I'm going to be sorely pissed.

*sigh* Take EARTH back.

Humanity.

Symbolism.

No, really, is there even a shred of reason to think ME 3 will cease to be ME? All because of a trailer showing humans taking their own planet back? I mean, goddamn, we even have a demo where it's stated black on white that Shep's going to seek the help of others. What are all those MP alien models for, added for ****s and giggles?

ChandlerL wrote...



Agreed.
And hell, if we just want to refer to canon-- We all just spent the
last two games being the most significant threat to the Reapers since,
well we've never been given any information that they've ever been
repelled. Given that, as they say, history is written by the victors,
it's unlikely they ever have been. The reapers out and out told us that
we're on their radar. Stands to reason that they have a bone to pick
with humans now.



It's gonna be a wild ride. Bittersweet that
Shepard's story ends with the trilogy but as long as Bioware isn't sick
of makin this universe, I ain't sick of playin in their sandbox. I'll
just name my ME4 guy Shepard and giggle like a child thinking I just
pulled one over on em.

Agreed  I can't really see any other reason why the Reapers would deal the first hammer blow on Earth. I'm fairly certain this is all Shep's fault for being such an awesome super-villain hunter 

And yes, I'll be glad to stick around in the ME universe even after the Reapers go the way of the dodo bird. I'm assuming on attempting to create any variation of a name that includes "Shepard" a Cerberus operative will sneak in the room and shoot you in the head

Now, if they made a movie of it.. I'd sacrifice a toe nail to the Dark Gods

This happens, so that must mean this. No wait. THIS! 

That was the biggest jump to a conclusion I've ever seen. Holy ****.

Well said..

You've got got a few trailers, and already in one of them you do have a glimpse of a Reaper being hit. Besides, what do you think the Normandy and all those ships are firing at? Just those winged flippery flying husks?

Also, consider the fact the trailers are *supposed* to get you excited about the enormity of the Reaper menace. No sense in seeing some going down in flames.. not that I'm not 99 % sure that, if you had seen a damaged Reaper in the trailers, you'd have complained about that instead.

Wouldn't be surprised if the dragon tooth repurposed any material on the body for the augmentations.

Interesting thought. Maybe, yeah.

I just noticed something in the trailer, is that Wembley stadium they have there? Shows up several times around the minute mark.

The sniper isn't dead. You know what they say, pics or it didn't happen. Really, if it isn't shown on screen, or isn't in print, you can not assume anything happens to a character. You don't even know if he was still in Big Ben at that point.

Oh god, how I cried when the little girl died :'(

We don't know that she's dead.. In fact, it'd be one cool side mission to save some civilians one of whom is an odd looking, catatonic little girl  See if they don't

I also just realized there was another little metaphor right at the start. The girl is chasing a ladybug (or somesuch) with a toy fighter.. implying both that human weapons are toys to the Reapers, and human lives on the same scale as insects.

Lol, you'd probably get a heart attack with Game of Thrones or the Witcher 2.

Yea Bioware is about as subtile as a slap in the face compared to the a random sidequest (Little Sisters, amazing quest) in Witcher 2.

But then, we've known that since Dragon Age: Origins  While an absolutely great game and a favorite of mine, by comparison with The Witcher 1, especially the RPG side.. Choices in TW made a mockery of the "Grey" Warden's choices in DA.

Didn't get to see this on television (I'm not a zombie/Walking Dead fan), but watching it online was still awesome. I personally find there to be something special about watching/playing something with headphones on. It always seems to enhance the experience beyond what even a sound system can do...at least the sound systems I've had access to.

If you have the 360, it is a free video on the XBL Marketplace under ME3.

was nice on a technical perspective. Still did not capture mass effect feel for me really, but i can appreciate the technical work put into it.

It comes up short when compared to the Arkham City CGI or TW2 XboX intro - those two trailers are works of art.  But what I really don't like about it is it feels like Call of Duty and not a space opera anymore. This is the trailer that got me stoked. No CGI was needed.

It's not uncanny, people seem to use that excuse for everything these days. She just looks like a pixar person. And just like the little lad who was lazord, seems like a contrived way of trying to say "I SO DARK".

Okay the full length trailer is a lot better. About on par with the ME2 CGI trailer I'd say.
