Five Things We Learned From Mass Effect

January 11, 2011 in Top List comments 2

It's one of the deepest, most mature video games to date, so naturally it has a lot to teach us about life. Here are five important life lessons you'll learn by playing Mass Effect.

As with many modern RPGs, Mass Effect requires a sizeable time commitment and the full attention of its players. But don't think that all those hours spent accruing renegade points are worth nothing -- Mass Effect has much to teach us about staying sane in a galaxy gone mad.

    One current trend amongst games is the use of morality. Morality isn't black and white, and even if it was, who would be fit to set the boundries? As such, I hate in games, situations that force me to pick stoutly between 'good' and 'evil', if anything it's completely naiive and needs to be looked at in my opinion if games like Mass Effect, Fable etc want universal media aclaim

      Fallout 3 and Oblivion did it well, I think. It wasn't so much good and evil as it was lawful and criminal, and rather than define who the player was it only defined how the world saw him/her, even if the options were slim.
