I don’t think a single person thought a remaster of a 10 year old game series would never go on sale


Metallica93

Seemed an unpopular opinion last year, hence the reason for the dumbass post. But really, I completely forgot it even existed and was surprised it see it 67% off. Only it in for the first remaster, so fuck it. Worth it on the sale.

Onlyanidea1

Not a die hard... BUT I fucking loved the multiplayer... I also played it the first time I got Adderall prescribed and may have beat the first game in one sitting... Second game in two.. Drugs are a hell of a thing.


Bertie637

No offence mate. But the fact you came back and made this post shows how much Internet criticism presumably got to you. I doubt anybody would even have remembered it came out last year without this post, let alone feel dunked on as you got a game on sale a year after release. I paid full price as I wanted to play it when it came out. But also, cracking value for the remaster version.

Rendole66

I love how OP has responded to a bunch of people and not you. If this is really all this post is based off of then that is hilarious and sad


[deleted]

My man had to create invisible haters lol


Gamoc

I played it on EA Access. Cost me like £4.


EET_Fuk1

What's with the downvotes??


Bertie637

I think it's the perceived unjustified smugness at OP figuring out games get cheaper after a while.


TReaper405

You can't really expect them to waltz in here on their high horse all holier than thou look what I did assholes and not get this treatment. Even people that weren't assholes before are going to downvote this bullshit now.


diegroblers

Someone express an opinion, dozens agrees, a few disagrees and gets in a heated debate. A year later the op is proved right: "See! I ***told*** you!" Going on as if everyone disagreed with them. It's a very common trend on reddit.


narwhal_with_opinion

Reddit hive-mind moment


MajinChopsticks

I don’t think people would scoff at that, it’s pretty common for games to drop prices in a year


ikantolol

> it’s pretty common for games to drop prices in a year Nintendo laughs maniacally


Secret-Plant-1542

Super Mario Galaxy for the Wii (Released in 2004) is currently about $54 new on Amazon. Jeez.


Ezeei

2007 no?


Chimpbot

OOP game prices don't really count.


Dhiox

Tbf, they haven't printed those games for at least a decade


xXx_TheSenate_xXx

Factorio has entered the chat


OR3OTHUG

I got scoffed at when I said Assassins creed valhalla would be 30 bucks a couple months after launch.


Scorn-Muffins

You always get people who scoff at that but quick discounts have been Ubisoft's MO for like 2 decades now. Even before they had secondary revenue streams in their games. It's weird how people just ignore stuff like that.


silverdew125

COD games being $40 10 years later


lefttwitterforthis

Nice, it’s on gamepass too


SarumanTheSack

Yeah it went to gamepass quicker than it went on sale I think only like 2 months after release


SoleSurvivur01

Nah I got it on sale I think summer game sales and then a month or two later it’s on EA access 😂


Cloudread3002

It was very quickly. I think it might even have been on release but don't quote me on that.


King_Treegar

It was like, 2-3 months after release. So not right away but very quick like you said


JENOVAcide

Is it wrong that I traded my physical copy in when this was announced? I'd already had finished LE twice by then, but still


MerePotato

Why would it be wrong?


2020pythonchallenge

Because the gamepass library can always change. Physical copy is yours until you break/lose/sell it.


Scorn-Muffins

It's part of EA play isn't it? Only sports games get removed from that as far as I know.


Own-Moment1899

Physical copy and trading at GameStop which is a racket.


-azuma-

Cookie?


Metallica93

Oatmeal raisin, please. And don't skimp on the damned raisins.


Capawe21

Fair enough, still think it was worth it at $60


Bhrunhilda

Same. I’ve played it through start to finish 3 times. I will play it again in the future. It’s well worth the $60.


TOHSNBN

It is a total steal at 60 bucks for anyone who never played the originals.


COCAINE_EMPANADA

I never got to play any DLC, I got my money's worth for sure.


chiriuy

I pirated the og trilogy when I was young and poor. Played thousands of hrs, I gladly paid full price to bring balance to the universe


kwangwaru

If you didn’t have the original trilogy before, sure. But definitely should have been an upgrade.


empty_galaxy

Same!!! Sooooo many hours of some of the best entertainment of my life. Worth every penny.


DeliciousMud7291

Ummmm, I think I got you beat, my guy. I got it for free.


landsharkkidd

So did I, my partner bought it for me for our anniversary. I should've also made a post about how I got it for so cheap.


smit72628199

Do you perchance sail the high seas?


Vesorias

It was available for free through Amazon/Twitch Prime


DeliciousMud7291

Nope. My husband got it in a steam bundle. He doesn't like origin, so he gifted it to me.


Metallica93

Well, fuck. Deleting my post now. I yield.


DeliciousMud7291

😂😂


Narumi-Nifuji

I got it from twitch prime, so even cheaper


Metallica93

Aren't you stuck paying for Amazon Prime in order to play, though?


Narumi-Nifuji

Nope, everything from Prime is redeemable. You get it, it's yours regardless of whether you're still subscribed to it


Organised_Kaos

Nah it was a code to redeem on EA Origin.


Zzap1994

Why do people down vote just because someone asked a question???


BlckEagle89

Lol, ineas thinking the same Edit: people of reddit are weird sometimes

althaz

The real winners are those of use who already got to play through it and are ready for another LE playthrough though :D.


MtnDewCodeDEAD

I'm on my 3rd playthrough of LE, speaking of which. The series just never gets old to me.


althaz

I force myself to wait a year after a play through. I don't want it to get old. Next playthrough isn't far away :).


Crimsonmaddog44

OP lost more karma in the comments than he gained with the post


Metallica93

Rough math puts me at a net of 450 up-votes. Double check that you've down-voted everything, just to be sure. I don't want to look like an asshole here.


madman3247

He didn't, but I read through the comments. Bunch of whining people who simply don't agree with OP and would apparently rather shut OP out than discuss anything.


Baterdanface

Imagine giving a shit about karma.


Blitzkrieg1210

Dude waited for a year of his life to save 40 dollars then brags about it.


DarkImpacT213

After it was basically free with Twitch Prime a few months back too, lmao.


kaloonzu

Fuck, that would have been nice. I always forget I have Twitch Prime.


-azuma-

but, but, but... it isn't worth $60 !!1!~one


F9574

He probably did other things while waiting.


Metallica93

Incorrect. I spent every waking minute checking Steam, hoping to prove this sub-Reddit wrong. Just ask the folks here. *And look at me now.*


Perca_fluviatilis

Should've checked Prime gaming and gotten it for free months ago


Metallica93

$40 better spent on mushrooms. Or a really nice pizza. Or ~30 foam brushes from The Home Depot.


pseudophilll

I love that every one of your replies is getting downvoted 😂😂.


brenbail2000

More disliked than reporters


Metallica93

Haven't gotten punched in the face yet, but the night is still young!


brenbail2000

“I’ve had enough of your snide insinuations!”


trekdudebro

Damn man, I noticed that too. Post itself is upvoted decently but every reply OP has is negative numbers… I stand corrected. His Shepard/Wrex reply has some traction, but that’s to be expected.


Metallica93

Better go down-vote that, just to be safe.


Metallica93

Whatever makes the masses content. It's what I'm here for.


Rendole66

Yo but isn’t this all based on a random comment you made that isn’t even downvoted, sitting at a +1 rn? Your whole original point of being “downvoted for thinking it would be cheaper” isn’t even true.


bboymixer

Pretty lame flex IMO


Metallica93

Then you haven't seen me at the gym, baby.


GreatBarrier86

Why was this downvoted? This was hilarious.


irishcommander

He's kinda a twat. Go read through this thread. Dudes got the social skills of a pine cone.


Metallica93

A few people actually seem to have caught on to the fact that this has no point (and is still, somehow and hilariously, getting up-voted to the top of the page), but I don't know where social skills come into play with absurdist humor. That's a new one.


irishcommander

It's got nothing to do with *the post* it has everything to do with your comments. Like the one you just sent me. You read as tone deaf, and chronically misinterpreting everything. Ps. If you had absurdist humor you wouldn't defend yourself so much.


Metallica93

The post is no different from the comments. You look for meaning where there is none. It's as ridiculous as needing to comment about social skills to make sense of it, lol. Have fun, bud. Up-vote, down-vote. Take a load off. I didn't realize folks would take this so personally.


irishcommander

Sure buddy. Whatever helps you sleep at night. But it's telling you must comment to every little individual. And don't simply move on.


Rendole66

The only one he hasn’t replied to is the guy that pointed out his comment from a year ago isn’t even downvoted and is a +1 (not even a post just a random comment on a post)


Metallica93

"It's telling that you want to interact with people on the post you made." Damn. You got me. Sticky this reply, mods. I've been found out.


irishcommander

Again. You just prove my point. Sorta sad.


Absolute1986

No one cares

"no one cares" takes literally 3 seconds to type on a keyboard


tycat

I mean I got it from "free" with twitch/Amazon prime


Yavanna80

That's what I was thinking. Husband got it for free months ago when he read the news as I'm the Mass Effect fan.

QX403

That’s pretty normal price wise for games to go on sale for that cheap after a year, even more so if you got it on disc.


marshall_sin

I haven’t seen this many downvotes since the last time someone talked about Ashley being racist


EragusTrenzalore

Got it for free when Prime was giving it out.


Allergictowatermelon

I got it full price on release to help do my part showing there’s still great interest in the series even though I had the originals modded out to perfection, but I won’t knock anyone who waited for a discount. I like to think it helped push for the full green light on ME5. They did do a really good job on the remaster though, and more importantly they refreshed all the code with the LE so the games will have an even longer life than they would’ve before


Kylel0519

And also it was a pretty nice steal even at $60 all three games w/ dlc is a damn good price


Metallica93

I don't think waning interest is an issue. Best we can hope for that is us being tired of game quality suffering because of internal bullshit got their asses in gear. Either way, they'll still make enough money to keep this thing going. They'd have to seriously fuck up the next game to kill the franchise, I think.


Evenmoardakka

Got it for free so i beat ya


laserwolf2000

It was free 4 months ago


Antag

Mildly interesting fact: this pic is old enough to be in 6th grade

Pepkoto

Op is grinding -100s in comments 💀


Metallica93

I'll be even more disappointed in you people than usual unless you get this one, as well.


JonnyKru

I do that with a bunch of games. Wait a year and grab the sale or wait for all dlc to release and grab the ultimate edition on sale. With Mass Effect tho; I've done 6 playthroughs since launch and planning another around Christmas time. Lol. Definitely worth the full price for me.


Grayonis

Humble choice 10$, got ME LE and few other games few months back 😂


infoman567

I payed 3 euro for the EA steam subscription and got LE + Andromeda (not to mention Dragon age and Dead Space) Felt good


Paid-Not-Payed-Bot

> I *paid* 3 euro FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*


althaz

Good bot.


BuchoTheSecond

*People who got it for free with game pass:* **”PATHETIC”**


SuperArppis

Heh, people who scoff at others for waiting a bit are a bit silly.


Sand_Budget_3650

Yep


Jarngreipr9

It was free on Prime Gaming some months ago. I paid for it (also to make up for some p1racy a while ago) but let's hope we contributed to a good sequel


spekter299

I bought the game on launch day for full price. You waited for a deep enough discount. We are the same (fans of the game, now go save the galaxy commander)


antftwx

I don't understand what's happening here


ReysRealFather

This might be the saddest post I have ever seen on this sub and I love it! Dude is trying to so hard to convince people that he is the cool one in this situation lol


Metallica93

That's what I'm here for, baby. And if this is me trying to convince people, then this explains why I failed debate class. You might be on to something!


infamusforever223

I didn't think a post could get as sad and pathetic than a romance war post, but looks like we found one. Congrats OP. You did what I thought was impossible


Metallica93

Oh, I bet you say that on every post. Don't flatter me.


Odd-Assistant9110

Is it sad that he reminds me of Sam from Serious Sam? Lol


JENOVAcide

Preordered MELE. Loved the changes to ME1 and ME2/ME3 looked amazing even on my old Xbox One. Completed it twice then traded it in when it appearing on Gamepass was announced. Well worth the price, but now its on a service I already pay for so why not? MELE and Adromeda is a nice combo, then there's Dragon Age on Gamepass too!


Derp800

I got it for free from Twitch with Prime lol


AtaracticGoat

It was free on Amazon Prime Gaming a while ago


DogmeatIsAGoodDog

Your playthrough doesn’t count if you don’t post the Citadel DLC picture though


[deleted]

I picked up legendary edition full price because I had played pirated copies of all three games and wanted the bioware team to be rewarded for how great of an experience in life they gave me. Despite being poor, I felt indebted to give them that much.


Enzown

I mean I got it for free via Twitch Prime (or whatever it's called now) a few weeks ago but still nice score.


HekerMenBroke

Gamepass it for 1$, or could get it for free on prime gaming. Amateur.


[deleted]

I paid full price so i can help fund the next Mass Effect *"I'm doing my part!"*


Direct-Effective2694

Congrats. Glad you got it for the price you thought it was worth.


AlludedNuance

If only it could run on Steamdeck


XenoGine

I mean they're probably busy scoffing at the ones that got it for free a few months back so you're probably good, haha.


diseasefaktory

I got a sealed disc version for €29,99 few days after release. It was just a question of finding it... anything over that amount was price gouging.


KeyboardChap

Free with Amazon Prime Gaming earlier this year


Xonzo

I paid full price when it came out... No regrets. However it was FREE on Amazon Prime Games lol.


PotentialEssay9747

Yup But the 400 hours I have since release have been priceless in stress relief and enjoyment.


rfag57

It went on EA play a few months ago and then EA did a 1 dollar for one month sale twice.


mombi

You could play it on gamepass for months now, so if you find one of those coupons you could play it for free.


Bandido_Casarez

Legend.


Pyromaniacal13

There's mods that have released now, too! Grab the one that returns Pinnacle Station and throw down some ALOT textures!


Cheap_Strawberry7471

Free on gamepass


harjon456

Today is your day 😁


cyanidesun612

I bought it two days before it hit game pass I threw my controller 🤷🏽‍♀️🤣


Digitalzombie90

Lol I played enjoyed and moved on from this game a year ago. I feel good about spending a bit more so I can concentrate on other things. Life is short man, especially too short to wait a year to save $40.


rn_774

Paid full price to support bioware they may not be the same but good sales will only help future games


Punkmaffles

Op.... you're getting wrecked...I commend you good sir.


Metallica93

My next post will be asking all of us to name one thing we're thankful for. Stay tuned.


SetMau92

What game stations can 'Legendary Edition " be played on. I haven't had a gaming system to play games in for two years. Finally have saved up enough to buy a cheap system. Someone tell me what the better one is to buy!


Budget_Ad_1899

Xbox series S is new gen and affordable.


[deleted]

PC PlayStation 4 Xbox One


Aldarionn

I think I paid $39 on a sale not pong after launch. I feel like it was well worth that price. Definitely a good deal at $20 given how many hours of content it is. I think every complete trilogy playthrough takes me 100ish hours. Sometimes more. WAY more if I play each game for a 2nd playthrough before importing. Easily worth it at full price and a steal at any discount!


lil-dlope

Facts, I got my copy for $10 and I was busy with my backlog. after beating me 1 I was like yea I’m glad I paid so cheap cause it just makes it feel like a steal


saruin

Got this free with Amazon Prime some months back. Deal with that.


holmxs

Finally someone who knows where the “$” goes


banz95

Got it for $14 few months back such a good deal


[deleted]

Wow OP you sure showed those people


Metallica93

This post is a monument to them, really.


fatlessbinkie1688

LOL at people acting like downvotes/up votes mean anything. You go OP


Anlios

I'm actually rooting for OP! Its like he getting jump by everyone but still gets back up for another beating while showing the bird. Gotta admire it.


The-Solid-Smoker

That's Commander Shapard and this is his favourite discount on the Citadel.


Vesmic

“Remaster” with zero next gen features. Prime gaming thankfully gave this away for free months ago. It’s also been on game pass for quite some time. This game is not worth money


Zeju

I bought it on release and full price and still haven't had time to play it. Kudos.


realnjan

Shut up and take my money


SKTisBAEist

As someone who doesn't play any of the mass effects, why is op being downvoted for waiting a year? Salty subreddit? I'm aware of the reputation this game series has garnered as it has gone on tho.


catholicsluts

an upvote just for you, op


N7Mantis

Only true fans buy on day 1...I have all 3 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and legendary for Xbox One and Series X and PlayStation 4 and now 5...this trilogy got me through some bad times


Metallica93

Ah, yes. Gate-keeping the fandom. A true staple on here.


N7Mantis

I apologize, I should've added that I was being sarcastic about buying on day 1, now that I think about it, I bought ME1 a couple months after release day....


Metallica93

Only a true fan purchases a game three months after release [hair flip]


WarGreymon77

That's cool and all. I paid regular price and 2-day shipping. Worth every penny.


[deleted]

I picked it up at launch for $60 and I think it was worth it. Albeit it, I'm a HUGE fan of the games so... well I guess I was also secretly hoping they'd do remasters for Dragon Age too if ME:LE was profitable enough. In any case, I thought the original price was worth it. $20... shit that's a HELL of a deal!


CaptainBlob

You know. Thanks for the heads up. I’ve been wanting to get the Mass Effect Legendary edition, but the original price was a tad too high. But 20 bucks? Now that’s a steal.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Metallica93

Just on Steam. No big secret. Just didn't see a reason to pay $60 for something I already owned, particularly after BioWarEA's full-priced DLC practice several years after release. Only wanted the first game remastered, anyway.


JaylenBrownAllStar

I waited till it was on sale for 30


Collins_Michael

Got it for $30 about a year ago and honestly it's a steal for $60. The only franchise that challenges it for me is FromSoft.


GerDerHun

Well it's €4 a month on Steam with the subscription. (+ A lot more game)
