What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
And it was absolutely amazing experience - narrative-wise.
Mass Effect 1 (ME1) sees the most improvements, namely in graphical fidelity and gameplay improvements while driving the Mako, and the ability to use weapons unrestricted across classes.
ME I feels significantly improved in the LE edition concerning graphics.
Characters - for the most part are great, with satisfying (or even excellent) character development, impressive voice acting.
Little dissapointed they removed the multiplayer on the legendary edition, as this game would be great for co op, and even deathmatches.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway.
