Mass Effect Legendary Edition Compromised Ports

I watched the second one because I thought he would talk about the ridiculously shitty lighting that Shepard has on them in ME2, compared to squadmates and the surrounding environment that should be lit by the same light sources.

A dark skintone Shepard. This is what he looks like outside of cutscenes most of the time, unless I fiddle around to find the precise location and direction he must face in order to actually catch the light:



A medium skintone Shepard. Same as above. Ridiculously difficult to get her to catch the light outside of cutscenes.



Neither of these Shepards had an issue in ME1. I haven't gotten my male Shepard to ME3 yet, but my Femshep didn't have these extreme lighting issues there either. I wonder if, when they brightened everything else in this game, they just forgot about Shepard.

Agree 100%... On several fronts, this remaster is actually quite disappointing.

I have zero desire to go back to the original games for what it's worth. Everything is either 1 to 1 or an improvement.

Yeah asme her atm I can see myself going back to play Pinnacle stationno wand then but tbh given that I can now pla ythe trilogy without having to really think about the galactic readiness and having some really nice graphical touches means the LE is definitely a better version for me in general. Other than the fish bug I've not really had any issues or at least no big ones

I have not seen a single thing that makes me think that in 150 hours.

I'm not saying you can't or ought not to enjoy it but it's an observable fact facial animation's botched in Mass Effect Legendary Edition and lighting across the board it's not an argument but an observation.

the lighting seems to be an issue but the animation? Nonsense.


hardly.

by and large? Yes. The animations in that bid even showing a one to one comparison looked more natural in the LE. A couple of weirder moments not withstanding the youtuber was really stretching it though.

This is practically verbatim what I was thinking. I don't have anything to add, except that if I didn't notice these things while playing, then they obviously don't bother me, aside from the ME2 lighting I already mentioned.

But yeah, this comment nailed it for me.

That you can't see what I see in the videos confirms my suspicion that all of this is simulation.

Sky is orange, ground is blue, smiles have mouth curled down with teeth bared, chocolate is sand, and Anakin loves sand.

If you paid attention to the animation details, the downgrade is obvious and indisputable. You say hardly, I call bullshit. The proof is literally in the video.

I get that some people were turned off by the attitude, and I did feel it was over the top at times. That said, I agreed with their video and points. BioWare is a shambles, this game is a cash grab, glad sone of you like it because ultimately their success is required in their making more product. My impression from this LE is that the passion is making money, not games. That's why the video author is mad, they are idealist and this continued dumbing down and simplifying everything hurts that person, likely an old fan. Somebody that paid close attention and was bugged by it. Expected more. Anyways, I am not their lawyer.

I hope the sales performance helps the future of this franchise.
