It's very strange playing this game without context for the other 2, but still pretty damn good on its own. Think it's aged quite well. It has memorable characters. You have choices that feel impactful for most (yes most) of the experience. The gameplay is tight and satisfying. The gamepad features actually make things interesting and more dynamic with being able to use partner powers in much more reliable ways. So the port overall is good.

But it's missing content, we never got all the dlc. So it's lacking there. And the game as is has issues, most with the ending, but it's tedious running through the Citadel every time. The UI and sidequest navigation is also pretty bad.

It's a good port of a good game, but good is where it stays. It dosent reach a great level.

A better console port of the og ME3. Not for me though as I prefer playing it on pc.
