^Harmonica when you call out Elder Scrolls

To be clear we are talking about facial animinations in cutscenes right?

Because the animations in combat look great imo.

My favorite gif tho is from Final Fantasy 14.

There were some disgusting animations in FF15 too. Like PS2 level.

Animations in cutscenes/dialogue scenes have been bad in games for ages lol.

Especially in RPGs, Witcher 3s felt God like compared to what we are used to and they weren't amazing or anything.

Fallout and Skyrim are both terrible for very robotic animations.

Loyalty mission? i think i'll save myself from it tbh.

Loyalty missions where some of the best things about Mass Effect 2.

by M99 Tue Feb 28, 2017 5:55 pm

Finishing my second playthrough on ME 2 this weekend probably. Then continuing with 3 before Andromeda. Great game ME2. I ended up killing everyone in the last mission so I tried again Laughing

That was my first playthrough exactly lol, still think i failed to keep them all alive in my 2nd attempt though.

by Kaladin Tue Feb 28, 2017 6:21 pm

I think that was everyone, i failed to realize you had to farm the resources from planets for ship upgrades, thought that was irrelevant lol

by MJ Tue Feb 28, 2017 6:29 pm

lol there's that surreal moment watching squad member after squad member just permanently die in cut-scenes on your first playthrough that leaves you shitting bricks.

immediately went back and did what i could to salvage the ending on my first playthrough.

by M99 Tue Feb 28, 2017 6:31 pm

Everyone except me :coffee:

You only need 3 upgrades to survive. Cannon, armor, and shield. The trick is talk to your squadmates. Garrus literally says "we are dead unless we upgrade the cannon", Tali tells you about the shield, forgot who tells you about the armor. Everyone survived for me in my first playthrough which I imported to ME3. On subsequent playthroughs I intentionally effed up to see who dies.

Yeah the game was super clear about what you got to do. Only way to make it more obvious would have been a list with "stuff to do to avoid squad members dying" lmao.

by Freeza Tue Feb 28, 2017 6:45 pm

I picked the wrong man in the last mission I think. Picked Garrus as the leader despite him having killed his entire team Laughing

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Tue Feb 28, 2017 6:46 pm

Garrus is legit though so understandable tbh.

by M99 Tue Feb 28, 2017 6:53 pm

Bioware's biggest *bleep* up is not give us a confrontation with Harbinger.

That feeling of shit just got real when you hear the words "assuming direct control"

Instead the final boss in ME3 is a *bleep* turian husk iirc

you also had to pick certain squad members for certain jobs and loyalty came into play so it wasn't as clear cut as just upgrading a couple of things on the ship.

Yeah I know but it wasn't really hard to pick the right choices as the roles are pretty much clear cut.
Only problem is saving the whole Normandy crew when playing for the first time imo.

Well, some of us are obviously a little more eager to save the galaxy and don't have the patience to sit there and think when trillions of life forms are in danger. :coffee:
