Mass Effect Andromeda vs Mass Effect 3 (I made a crappy video essay for N7 Day '22)

Hello everyone, Apologies for any mistakes made during the video. Hopefully you guys can comment and I may do a follow up video.


This is the first time I've ever tried doing a video essay and I won't lie, I didn't enjoy it. Writing, Recording and Editing took a lot out of me and honestly I nearly quit.


This video was originally going to have more visual edits in it but I decided not to do them at the last minute due to the fact that I didn't think the video would be rendered and uploaded in time.


This video is to be more like a podcast, something to listen to in the 2nd monitor.


Hopefully some people find some level of value out of it. Be it informing, provocative, comedic or as cure for insomnia.


This took a lot out of me and usually I don't ask for likes, subs or follows but I will make the exception now. Please rate the video what you think it deserves, sub to the channel and follow me on twitch.





One more disclaimer, Sony Vegas was playing up during rendering so I had to render out segments and then render them together leading to a lower quality in video and audio. I do apologise for that but that's Sony Vegas for you.
