The amount of routes and outcomes don't matter when most of them are laughably written trash.

And the game lies to you for drama just like Heavy Rain did.

Is that a trophy?

I platinumed all the Mass Effects already so that'd be a tedious slog to go through again. (1's trophies are especially shit).

1's trophies are way easier this time.

And yeah, there's a separate small list that spans all three games that includes finishing them on Insanity and killing a large number of enemies across the games.

The trophy list is the same as a lot of Indy $10 games, not worth it for that amount of points. :l Why couldn't they just copy the original trophy lists gdi.

They did, for the most part. ME1's new trophy list is superior, actually. Instead of the "play the majority of the game with the *insert species here* squad member" trophies, you just have to do five missions with that squadmate.

There's the individual trophy lists for each game and then a separate smaller list that spans across all three.

So... is she a villain now? What she did was pretty fucked up and "sorry" doesn't really begin to cover it. And what about colorless Vision, what's his dealio.

She's likely going to be antagonistic for a portion of Strange 2 but I doubt she's an out and out villain.

Colorless Vision fucked off for now, we'll see what they do with him.

But she got her powers from the mind stone too? I mean if she got it from Wanda's red field, which in turn was from the mind stone, then what are they gonna make everyone's powers come from the mind stone now?

Wanda had her powers before the mind stone, it just supercharged them. And Monica gets her powers in the MCU from getting rewritten by the Hex twice. In the comics it's different.

Even if you consider it getting her powers from the mind stone it's fitting giving her association with Carol and the fact that her powers in the MCU came from the space stone.

A half Kree half Skrull character? How very interesting, I'd like to see that.

Speaking of skrulls who was the black woman again? The one who now has powers? Is she supposed to be the TV captain marvel like how falcon will be TV captain america?

Falcon isn't "TV Captain America" he's now Captain America in the MCU and is headlining a fourth Cap film.

She's the daughter of Carol's friend in the MCU and in the comics has been called both Photon and Captain Marvel. She'll be in the Captain Marvel sequel (called The Marvels) alongside Ms Marvel who is getting a show as well.

Yes.

Wanda can warp reality, and in the comics their creation is tied to Mephisto shenanigans. Them being reborn isn't a stretch.

Young Avengers?

Super team consisting of Wanda and Vision's kids (Wiccan and Speed), Kate Bishop aka Hawkeye II, Cassie Lang aka Stature, Eli Bradley aka Patriot, a half Kree half Skrull who goes by the superhero name Hulkling, and Ironlad. Later on they introduce more members like Kid Loki, the post death and resurrection good guy Loki.

The MCU likely won't use Ironlad but Wiccan and Speed are already set up, Kate Bishop will be in the Hawkeye show, Eli Bradley was in F&TWS, and Cassie Lang has obviously been a thing in the Ant-Man films. Kid Loki might very well be a thing after his show.

At first I was like "oh house in the middle of nowhere in a beautiful pacific northwest looking area, how very The Hulk-like" especially with her being a fugitive and all.

But then... ? Wandavision was in the kitchen but then she wasn't? Wait it just hit me was she astral projecting while reading the darkhold that she somehow got hold of?

And what was with the "mom help please" with her fake kids who supposedly stopped existing when she ended the spell right.

She was astral projecting and studying like Strange did, yes, and presumably just took the Darkhold from Agatha.

The kids are Young Avengers setup. If it goes anything like the comics they'll be back, aged up to teens to join the YA alongside Cassie Lang, Kate Bishop, and several others.

Second Son is easily the worst of those.

Days Gone was surprisingly pretty good, even if it did drag on for too long. The characters are likable, the stuff with the bike is pretty fun, Sam Witwer turns in a good performance as always, and fighting the hordes is very fun and incredibly tense if you do it undergeared.

Also it's a stealth Syphon Filter sequel so that's nifty.

Maybe not every skill, but I could at least feel differences when I picked things in ME1. And because you got more than 1 point at a time, you could get ".2% extra shields" 4 or 5 times, which was still 100% more than the effects I felt from ME2 bonuses and skills. ME2 combat was just "peek over the cover, shoot and hope you don't run out of ammo, and do nothing else because you have no buttons to push or tactics to employ."

I mean maybe if you chose to play it that way! I was tossing out biotics (biotic detonations are so good) and tech left and right in ME2, even moreso in ME3 where you have tech bursts on top of biotic detonations.

Also IIRC it's only 3 points per level in ME1 for LV 1-5, then only 2 for like 30 levels, then 1 the rest of the way to LV60. ME2 is 2 points until LV20 and 1 point from LV20 to LV30. Not much of a difference IMO.

and leveling and bonuses seemed few and far between and never really seemed to do much.

If anything this is ME1 more than ME2, with the "put a point into this to get .2% extra shields" skill trees.

ME2 is a bit better, I actually feel the upgrades there, but the upgrade paths are pretty linear. ME3 does the version of it with the splits in each skill's tree actually feeling different.

As an Infiltrator on my first playthrough I always liked ME1 the most.

Then I did my first biotic run, and Lift/Charge in 2 and 3 is just too much fun.

Tactical Cloak tho.

For real fun shits and giggles run a Shotgun Infil.

Or my favorite for Insanity, Shotgun Sentinel with exploding Power Armor. Suicide rush everything.

In Thor's defense for the "go for the head" thing, soldiers and cops are trained to aim for center mass because it's more reliable than a headshot that might miss, and I fully believe that the Asgardian warrior with millenia of experience probably has the same instincts.

Now he definitely partially did it to make Thanos hurt because of his personal grudge, but even without that I feel like he would have aimed for center mass. Would have been hilarious if in some of Strange's futures he did go for the head and missed.

The same Rogers who punted a dude back first into a gas tank on the Lemurian Star and killed several other mercs in the opening of Winter Soldier? The same one who also kills several Hydra mercs in Civil War?

I'm fucking dying at your double standards though. Make sure to knock out the murderous goons trying to kill you, they might not be so bad!
