I seems that the more important the shooting part is for you, the less you'll care about ME1.
Thanks gods, I think shooters are annoying as hell.

[Wes Finley]

Yes.

Leave, now.

this must be a joke, mass effect 1 was the greatest game! it was the beginning of the amazing saga, and only because the other ones have improved, because theyve fixed issues and changed gameplay etc, doesnt mean mass effect 1 is now crap. to be honest after i finish me3, im going to play me1 again purely for how fantastic it is.

[Transgirlgamer]

I have to disagree Kakita. I'm not a fan of shooters. I only even tried ME2 because I'm a sci-fi fan, I was looking for a new game not long before ME3 came out and I'd vaugly heard good things about the Mass Effect Series. It was the characterisation in ME 2 that hooked me and got me to pre-order the ME3 CE. And that also got me to not only go back to ME but also spend more than I could really afford to upgrade my PC so I could play them all there instead of on a console. The characters in ME so far, I've only just got past recruiting Liara, aren't bad, but they aren't great either. What I don't like about ME 1 is that shaky scope for the sniper rifle and there's so much boring in it, exploring planets, strolling through the Citadel and standing for ages unable to do anything except look around in elevators. I would skip the elevators, but I've picked up side missions from the 'news' in the elevators and I want a complete playthrough to import to ME2.

i loved ME1... but the Mako planet-searching sequences were boring

I thought the Mako was fun to drive. Once you got used to its "unique" handling.

it was fun in for me in the beginning... but the planets were like the same thing with different colors, that i got bored very quickly

The only problem for me was the long load times, and how long it could take things to render when loading up a new area.

I sure hope so!

I enjoyed ME1, but (imo) it definitely sits on the weaker end of Bioware games, above Neverwinter Nights and Dragon Age 2.

The MAKO was fine, the map design was sometime a bit sloppy. But I finished ME1 again last Friday and it is still the best one of the trilogy.

[chengthao]

i hate the gameplay mechanics (but only after playing ME2 and ME3) but the story, voice acting, character interaction is by far way, way better than the other two games combined

didn`t say ME1 was bad... i loved it... but hated the Mako...

Then go play a shooter OP. The best thing about ME1 was about story and interaction.

ME1 has the best events in the series, I mean just look at when Shep gets Spectre status, it actually meant something in ME1.

I loved the Mako and explorable planets it gave the galaxy some scope to it. It was waaaaaaay better than just following a path like in ME2 and ME3 and having little maps with no exploration.

Any thread starting with "Am I the only one who..." is destined to fail

[orangesonic]

maybe every ME game has its plus and minus points...

btw... the ME1 Citadel was the best place to go in all series for me

Many people share these sentiments. I, however, am not one of them.

Indeed.  ME1 was the best of the series.  Best (by FAR) story, best buildup, best reveal.  Coherent, solid.

I LIKED the weapon cooldown stuff.  It made sense based on the physics in-game.  Now it is just the same old mags laying all over the place (you know, I keep stumbling and tripping over M4/M16 rifle mags all the time when I'm out and about...really obnoxious.  And don't get me started on how many grenades, mags, rockets, etc, are JUST LAYING AROUND in a combat zone!  Like shells on a beach...NOT).  

I also liked the crosshairs.  Have ANY of you ever actually used a real rifle with a scope with crosshairs?  Unless you are planting the rifle on a bipod or on a sandbag, etc, then the crosshairs DO move quite a bit with your breathing and normal muscle tremors.  They are NOT rock-solid and non-moving.  By a LONG shot.  They even move with a bipod!  That's why you STILL have to control your breathing, focus, and SQUEEZE the trigger rather than rattle away pop pop pop!  I LIKED how it made things harder in the game and made it closer to reality.

The weapons and behavior of said weapons are now no different than they are in any standard shooter...except in games like Medal of Honor and Call of Duty, they make them more realistic by limiting your ammo, causing the crosshairs to dance around, etc.

The Mako.  A lot of people rain hate on the Mako.  They have a point...it did go a bit too far (and that thing was climbing IMPOSSIBLY steep slopes all the time, falling and tumbling down slopes without any harm, etc) but I liked it more than just scanning in ME2 or the ping-and-scan of ME3.  I would have prefered something of a marriage between ME3 and ME1 as far as planet exploration/side missions in ME3.  SOME ping-and-scan-and-probe-launch, and some actual planetfall and exploration in the Mako or Hammerhead.  New environments, popup enemies/terrorists/pirates, etc.  

I do like the combat control of ME2 over ME1.  It is an improvement but then I did get used to ME1 so it didn't bother me much.  The AI for the characters was still retarded in ME2 and 3 with my squadmates going off on their own even after I kept hitting "C" "C", "DAMNIT C!"  I wanted them to rally to me but they stayed way off on their own getting splattered by Banshees or Beasts.  When I order "rally to me" I mean you DO IT.  If I direct you to cover you DO IT.  You don't go off on your own and keep getting killed so I have to keep expending medigel to revive you.

Finally, ME3 stuck WAY too much action on a single PC keyboard key: the space bar.  There are 128 keys on a typical keyboard.  USE SOME OF THEM!  PC users can handle it, I promise.  I cussed SO much in combat when my Shepard would not do what I needed and wanted: he'd stick to cover when I wanted to run past cover and take cover further on.  He'd turn AROUND the corner of cover right into the line of fire instead of rolling to adjacent cover.  He'd jump OVER cover right into a turret or bad guy instead of ducking behind cover.  On and on and on.  Cussing up and down as I got wasted again and again because my Shepard was being retarded...because of the space bar being way overloaded with functions in the very same situation.

Someone else understands.

ME1 was very generic.

I don't think you understand the word.. but I'll bite. Generic in what way? And what makes Me2 and Me3 non-generic?

If anything, those are a rollercoster of cliches.

You, sir, are correct.  I have spoken.

ME1 had a solid, well-laid-out STORY.  It made SENSE.  It was interesting.  It did what a good story does: it builds up to a finale in an intelligent and well-thought way. 

It's finale was cool, was spectacular, was fun, was good.  ME2...meh.  We wont even TALK about ME3...there are many other threads devoted to the epic fail that is the 'finale' of ME3.

That's how sniper rifles work really..You know..shaky hands..breathing. You cab't hold a rifle perfectly still.

[wolfsite]

ME1 is a great game.

Admittingly it does feel a bit slower paced coming back to it after ME2 and ME3.  But that goes away after a bit.
