A bit burnt-out, but I still play MP quite a bit. SP....not so much (I'm trying to do a new playthough with an AF-Novaguard, and not even that novelty gives me enough interest as to complete it).

 

I confess I'm a bit bored in general while waiting for Elite: Dangerous and (mostly) Star Citizen to mature. They're the space-themed titles I'm waiting the most, apart from ME: Next (also, Just Cause 3 ). Add to that the new rig I'm saving bucks for, and 2016 is gonna be suuuuch a good year...

After I signed up on this forum I've played 16 hours of ME1 and 10 hours of ME2. And I signed up like a week ago. Before signing up I remember some crazy playtimes like - 100 hours on Mass Effect 2 for every character (two female, one male).

 

I've tried to play other games but ... they are so empty. Their characters are just dead and soulless. And boring. Mass Effect has fucked me up, I can't play other games without feeling condescsending towards them.

I typically do a full play through of the trilogy like once a year. But I play through each game by itself quite a bit. I just finished an insanity run of ME2 not too long ago actually.

I´ve tried playing other games, even from bioware, and others rpgs as well. But I always end up going back to ME every once in a while.

And by believable that meant they were flawed, not white knights (paragons), which also meant people died. Most of my playthroughs were paragons where everyone possible survived, just dabbling in the classes, and they were the most forgettable.

 

The first and last stood out most. lol Like in the first playthrough losing people on the suicide mission by not realizing the ship had to be upgraded, or choosing the control ending by accident when I went the wrong way.

 

My first play-though was similar. I never knew to upgrade the ship. So people died. Lots of emotion. Every play-though since has been perfect, except for my canon. Shepard is not perfect. At least mine isn't. But you know, once you know how to play a perfect game it's hard to not play it.

From purely a game-playing perspective I can see doing that. For me though Mass Effect was both a gaming and emotional/role-playing experience. Playing ME2 alone for example would feel empty. I'd always do it start to finish so I really identified with my Shepard and their situation. Otherwise things like talking to the crew feel severely devalued.

I used to do multiple trilogy playthroughs a year (like, a trilogy playthrough every time a Mass Effect 3 DLC came out) and after 13 trilogy playthroughs, I have officially downgraded it to "one trilogy playthrough per year" status.

As for just playing one of the titles, that is more common. Especially now that I can play with the PC version of the games now and can enjoy mods.

Really? The game gave you reminders all over the place. Heck if you completed a loyalty mission, you were basically given a pop up message reminding you to check the tech lab for relevant upgrades, not to mention the big [UPGRADES] option in dialogue with every companion, allowing you to perform them even before getting loyalty.

My first ME2 playthrough was crash and burn. I didn't have Kasumi or Zaeed and I didn't know the geth could be a squadmate. I was paying more attention to using the controls than anything else. My second playthrough was a lot better.

When I am in the mood for it. I get bored of ME quickly these days.

I think I'm done with trilogy playthroughs. I've played and beaten them all with save imports 6 times 5-6 times and now I just play some of ME1 when I get in the Mass Effect mood. I've seen the outcomes of ME3 pretty extensively and ME2 lost some of its appeal because of ME3 answering all the questions so there isn't the same sense of mystique anymore and the suicide mission is just the same thing, after so many playthroughs.

I think Mass Effect 1 has a lot of smaller touches though, that makes me a bit surprised each time I play it, like, what order you play the missions and when you recruit Liara, whether you get Wrex before Garrus etc. So many things lead to entirely different versions of similar scenes in a way only the Krogan campaign in ME3 matched IMO.

I only start playing ME last november, nowadays I could go around a few days without playing... I got tired of DAO and DA2 pretty quick though
