That kid named Garrus surely will work making calibrations in the future.

My soul mate, my husband died of pancreatic cancer in the summer of 2006. My daughter was 5 years old. This was a very dark time in my life, and during that time I did not think anything would ever be normal in my life again. Then one day I saw the box of Mass Effect at a Gamestop just in there browsing. I bought it because I like the art cover, and the little snippet on back describing the game, but had never seen anything about it, no adds, nothing. I have always liked RP games, never been much on first person shooters, seemed right up my ally. Since then I have had many playthroughs, doing something a little different every time, but I have never sped through any dialog or conversations. This game and its story of hope, love and friendship contributed to me getting out of my dark place and living again. When I first started playing, I had no idea how powerful this story was, and how each sequel made it even more so. I love this game, and the story will forever be in my heart as a story of hope for the future, no matter what your background, where you come from, or where you have been or the roads you have traveled.

“I punch the reporter evertime, no matter what.” I felt that 😂

The couple that talked about mass effect when they first met are legends

[Blazeburn]

Big cyber hug to all my fellow fans out there!

[jasegibson]

The " I missed it so much " followed by the " we're on our way " actually made me tear up.

[admiralgeneralnn]

Mass Effect saved my life.
Back then when I was depressed and suicidal, the trilogy showed me that life can be something beautiful, that one day I'll get friends and that humanity ist that Bad after all. The reapers gave me picture for my inner demons. Knowing Shepard saved the galaxy and broke the cycle gave me hope that one day I'll stand up against my personal reapers and so I did. The trilogy means a lot to me and despite being pretty poor, I bought every single dlc for both Xbox and pc and all the novels and comics and more.

"Our first conversation ever was about Mass Effect" - this teared me up, because it's the same with my relationship, I heard him talking on the corridor to one of my colleagues about the Mass Effect game, I found strenght an courage (I'm an introvert) to join the conversation and to say that I'm a huge fan and... we are now 5 years together :)

Thank you for the best ride of my life

[i.m.pemployeeofthemonth]

One more day. Then we relive the memories.

I tried to convince my wife to name our daughter "Natalie Zorah" (Tali for short), but she shot down my idea. This is what happens when you don't invest in the upgraded armor plating.

At the end of Mass Effect 3 I felt something very strange. For a long time, I didn't know what it was, but now, I have figured it out.
Homesickness.

[lucmorgan]

This legitimately teared me up, I can't wait to get back to this world

[bloodycrazygamer]

"can't wait to get back" I never left.

[Eezula]

Thank you Mass Effect, for being the best there ever was.
And no matter how rough the future might be, i'll be there with your until the very end.

Love,

a Fan

[arkman]

Thank you BioWare team, and all who have given us this amazing universe.

[HonestTraveller]

This is why they can’t give up on mass effect games. The community is incredible. I seriously hope they work on another one. Andromeda was still fun but damn I’m hyped for this remaster

[michaelkaduck]

Whenever times are dark, when the worst of evils are shown everywhere, I play Mass Effect. Because of these games, I know we have a future to look forward to.

[littlesiha]

truly an honor to be in this video, thank you so much for the incredible journey you've taken us on.

[SanithMohanCase]

You know that you're completely and emotionally connected to the game and your squad mates when no matter how many times you play the game, the decisions are always the same. You simply cannot make the Renegade choices when it comes to your Squad.

I was only 5 years old when Mass Effect 1 came out and I grew up watching my Dad play it. When Mass Effect 2 came out when I was 8 I played Mass Effect 1 and 2 and played Mass Effect 3 as soon as it came out. I have literally grown up with this trilogy and these characters, and as an adult now I am so excited to re-experience everything for the first time again!
