The Normandy herself will be affected by the story with characters coming on board and staying when appropriate, adding some life to the ship. You’ll need to find and locate these upgrades and crew members in the Galaxy Map and even in some levels. Its performance in these moments is dictated by new upgrades you can make for the Normandy, similar to Mass Effect 2’s system, and assigning crew members to important tasks. Some of the changes are even affected by choices made all the way back in the first game!ĮGM adds a significant amount of content surrounding the Normandy, letting it participate in many of the game’s most important moments such as the evacuation of Thessia.

While the Nexus page goes into detail about what the mod adds to the game, the actual list of additions is so substantial there is a TVTropes page dedicated to this mod. In the latest, and apparently last, update, there’s now sections where you fight alongside the Geth, and other characters like Grunt and Kirrahe, making this last stand truly sprawling.The Expanded Galaxy Mod is a must-have for any modded playthrough. Four new tracks have been added to the soundtrack, as well as lots of visual flare and background events through-out. All the characters have new dialogue, some freshly recorded, others lifted from Mass Effect 2 and 3. According to the description on Nexus, it provides “a satisfying finale for one of the most popular franchises in gaming culture”, while also remaining “true to BioWare’s initial design, established lore and the game’s original script”.Įvery cut-scene has been touched up, and you now have more choices based on your background. Project: Earth Overhaul is a top-to-bottom rework of Mass Effect 3’s final mission, using cut content and new features that range from bug fixes to music, events, and cut-scenes.

If you happen to lead towards burning hatred for the conclusion to BioWare’s RPG game trilogy, this mod might be just what you’re looking for. Mass Effect 3‘s ending was divisive, and that’s being charitable.
