Mass Effect 2 was Awesome and so were its trailers. But did they reveal too much about the game? Maybe.
Throughout most of the ending I couldn't help but notice every 'trailer shot.' . If I hadn't watched the trailers, alot of the reveals would have been more effective. I'll put them in spoilers, since this game is about to come out on ps3.
-Shepard dies in the beginning - Normandy is destroyed. -Archangel being Garrus -Tali returning -A full preview of every new squad member including... -Legion. A geth. Fighting on your side -And then most of the cut-scenes from the Suicide Mission.
Would I have enjoyed the game more if I didn't know these things going in? Probably. I wouldn't say it ruined my experiance, but I certainly couldn't help but notice this.
So, for Mass Effect 3 I'm going to try something new. I've seen the reveal trailer, and that's all I'm going to see. I am going to try and stay away from every preview, screenshot and trailer for this game. This will be difficult. Living in this era, we expect all information instantly. The 5 minutes of so from when people saying the trailer was on the VGA's, to it being uploaded on to gametrailers.com, seemed like an age. So seeing a Mass Effect 3 preview and not reading it will test the willpower. I might fail, but why not at least try?
Have any of you ever tried this? Succeeded at it? And if so, does it improve the experiance of playing the game?
