We follow Saren's trail to Virmire, where his scientists are working on a controversial project.

Since we spent the last episode doing side missions I figure I'd do a recap of all the main story points to date; it was a bit long, so I put it into a separate video:

We're now running on the Xbox One in Backwards Compatibility mode. Since DLC is no longer supported, this means we did an off-camera scratch start with a new character who looks a lot like the earlier one and is an Infiltrator, but has a different background, a few more Renegade points, and now actually has to level up abilities and collect weapons and armor for herself and the crew.

This is the first in our new Spectator Mode series, where we try to co-op games that don't actually have co-op. First up, the sweeping space opera Mass Effect, that has all the classic RPG features that Bungie's Destiny left out, as well as all the clumsy third person shooting features they never put in.

This is Mass Effect.

WARNING: This is an "adult game" with "adult themes" whatever that means. What it means for this playthrough is that characters are going to use some mild language that might be inappropriate for small children, and we're not going to be censoring it or ourselves. We're still going to avoid f-bombs and particularly graphic language, but be warned, this isn't going to be as squeaky clean as some of our other series.

We're also leaving in conversations as well as combat; the trimming on this series will be minimal, but we'll start each episode with a recap of major events.
