The third person shooting mechanics prevalent throughout remain very similar to those of Mass Effect 2.
Above all, the third entry to the series shows that war can be devastating for anyone involved.
Mass Effect 3 sees Commander Shepard on his (or her!) toughest quest yet: to unite all lifeforms in the galaxy in order to prevent the impending destruction of all organic lifeforms by the hands of the Reapers ancient, sentient machines with little remorse or mercy.
It received much praise and topped many Game of the Year charts.Īlthough the third game isn’t quite the same leap as we saw going into the second game, there are many improvements, refined mechanics and the strong narrative continues, making for a sci-fi, galaxy-spanning epic. Whilst the first game was undeniably a little rough around the edges, the second game took things to the next level improving on everything that its predecessor had to offer.
There’s more often than not a weak link or inconsistent entry to a series one installment that disappoints the fans or fails to make a mark. It’s hard to find another science fiction trilogy that is so extremely well designed, developed and formed as the Mass Effect series has been so far.
