The Gamer discusses patches from the Legendary Edition Community Patch Team.

Fan-Made Mass Effect Legendary Edition Mega Patch Fixes Dozens Of Bugs Still Left In The Game

Mass Effect Legendary Edition fixed a lot of bugs that were still in the original game, but the remastered trilogy didn't fix every bug, and sometimes it even added whole new ones. Legendary Edition is very good, but it's not perfect, and it might take far more time and effort to make it perfect than would be profitable for BioWare.

But where BioWare fails, the community provides. A group of over a dozen modders have teamed up to form the Legendary Edition Community Patch Team with the stated goal of fixing everything wrong with Legendary Edition. No matter how small or inconsequential the bug, this mod team is on a mission to squash every last one of them.

The team already has two community patches over on Nexus Mods; one for Mass Effect 1 and the other for Mass Effect 3. Both patches fix hundreds of bugs, most of them minor graphical glitches or inconsistencies that you might not even notice, but a few rise to more wriggling issues that really should be addressed, like how Wrex/Grunt's weapons disappear when they're holstered or how none of the NPCs really touch their ears when they're using their communicators.

Did Couch mention patch of the year award in another thread?
We need modders' patch of the year too.
Modders' patch of the decade maybe too. Obviously, for the last decade, it would go to everyone's except mine favorite game. ;)

I realize that not every person experiences every bug and that bugs do exist in the game, but ME:LE seemed pretty well done to me. I 100% all the achievements and never had any crashes or major bugs. There may have been a few texture issues but otherwise I thought it was a pretty polished experience.

That said, replaying the game didn’t live up to the nostalgia in my head. Since I already knew all the major twists, the story didn’t impact me the way it did the first time around.

It seems a lot of people feel that way. It currently has a 5.5/10 on Metacritic which is pretty surprising. Either it didn't click as well with newer players, or people are starting to figure out it was overrated to begin with.

I felt similar and I still cried again with every touchy scene!

That said, Mass Effect will always be a special game to me. Honestly, I think they shouldn't have released this edition, it wasn't in such a dire need for a "remaster", and it only invited the trolls and corp-haters to review bomb the game cus, BioWare are traitors, EA is the root of all evil, and people who won't accomplish anything in their lives can't deal with others having success.

Such is life.
 
Hah..game gets re-masted and still has bugs…its hilarious.:biggrin:

It's rule 34 if it exits it has porn.:lol:
Rule 34 means If it exists, there is porn of it. If there isn't, there will be.
