Mass Effect 3 2012

Is it still worth playing?

BioWare's 2012 third person cover shooter with role playing elements for Windows, the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360, the last entry of the original trilogy. You play Commander Shepard in combat and in conversation. In a fight you order two AI squadmates, pick one of six classes, unlock skills on a tree with experience and fit weapons with barrels, mods and scopes. Conversations run on a wheel of Paragon and Renegade answers, romances are possible, and choices from the earlier games carry over through imported saves. Three modes, Action, Story and RPG, set the mix of the two. Because so much of it rests on those earlier choices, the trilogy played in order from the first game still gives it its full weight today.
