Now I'm really missing Christina Norman, her informative ME2 trailers were a dozen times better.

This has AWESOME? written all over it.

The trailer isn't very good. The constant camera cuts were annoying, and it is a little bit too frantic. But the combat does look fun, and I'm still really excited for the game. There is only one thing about this trailer that really bothered me, and that's the lack of Clint Mansell's score. I'm still kind of anxious about what he's going to do with the soundtrack.

Still, I know they're adding a lot of the customization back from the first game, but I would like to see what exactly they're doing. So hopefully the next trailer won't be just about combat, and it will show more of the depth BioWare says the game has.

Why does March have to be so far away? -sadface-

Wow, they've made mass effect 2. What an accomplishment.

I expect amazing Bioware storytelling explain to me why he's fighting Cerberus, which is doing everything in it's power to defend humanity from the reapers.
They got indoctrinated somehow.

I feel like all the character animations are in high speed. They look kinda unnatural. Guess that's what you get when you try to fill the "Fast Paced Action" check box on the "Game Needs" checklist. Or it was sped up in editing for this trailer...
That's pretty much what I was thinking too. That and the constant jumps in perspective kinda make it look bad too.

Hopefully just bleh video editing on their part.

They shouldn't have released this. I was so hyped...now...i dunno. I got some serious worries.

This looked rough.

If they wanna get people hyped for this, and they are. Considering the hype that is already there...why release a craptacular demo of combat like this. It just hurts the epicness. Seriously damaging...

I saw this and was expecting to feel more pumped after, and yet i feel deflated. This was not a good way to advertise the epic me3. It was actually painful to watch.

Wasn't impressed by it to be honest. Still, any more info/media about the game is nice.

Just consider having a mate who has never discovered mass effect, and you set them browsing and they find this...

what would someone uninitiated into the ME universe think of this?
I know what I would be thinking...

I'm assuming the animation is WIP. It's nice to see that Bioware is trying to get the player to mix the skills in like a good RPG should.

Oh... Wow.

Shitty animations, terrible, constant dialog, combat identical to ME2, no new powers and boring enemies and environment.

Not saying the game itself can't still be good, but I am losing hope quickly.

I'm currently playing ME2 (the 5th time since I lost all my previous save files) and I have to say I'm disappointed. They didn't make anything new except grenades (which were in ME1 and worked well) and added some chat between your team which will probably be annoying as hell after the first 10 fights... so yeah, not impressed at all.

Maybe EA wanted to cool the fans off a bit. If the game gets overhyped to much and doesn't fulfill all expectation (which it 100% will not), the game won't be sold to well.
So EA makes a serious looking, bad trailer to cool the situation down. Or at least I hope it's so.

This is ME 2 with Cerberus as enemies and a stupid Omin-Sword (which makes no sense since your omin tool is a hologram).


I'm not saying the game is/will be crap. I'm just saying that if we go with what we have seen so far, the game made just 1 step forward and 2-3 steps backwards. It gave us grenades back and added annoying sounds and bad animation.

I still really want Captain Anderson to be a team member in Mass Effect 3. However much BioWare have denied it, I still really want him in.

...Garrus? Is that you? I...I think it might be you, but I'm having difficulty seeing your scarring... It's like it's there, but only sometimes... Did you get them fixed? Because I like you better with the scars...

On topic: Looks interesting, but sounds like the audio could get annoying after a while... I hope it's not all Shepard talking. I like hearing the random things squadmembers said in battle. Like Tali naming her combat drone Chitikka.

I also hope that Cerberus has a convincing reason for attacking you considering how much the Illusive Man invested in you and how much you both ultimately want the same thing even if your methods are different.

I must say, though. My two favorite characters are back. I played through ME2 with Garrus as a permanent member. I love that guy! Having Liara on the team in the Shadow Broker DLC was great as well.

I didn't like Ashley much, though, but better than Kaiden. She was awfully stuck up in ME2. She'll come begging to take her back on the team, though. And her apologies better be good.


And I really didn't expect Liara to go down like that. She's a freaking badass in the comics.

I didn't expect Cerberus to go on the full-out assault on you.. I mean, I can imagine they're not very happy with me blowing that collector station up and generally distrusting that prick of an Illusive Man because he lured me into a trap .. but attacking me instead of the reapers seems silly. Though even if you were Cerberus' pet and let him have that station and trusted him completely, he'll still attack you in ME3.

I bet someone planted a reaper artifact in his quarters, hidden away in a cupboard, and is now all pissy because of that indoctrination thing.
