!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Really? I never played the OG ME3.
It was my understanding that you needed online to get a favourable outcome in the war. I know that's not exactly lootboxes, but I assumed there was some crossover.
In the Legendary Edition, it is possible to maximise the bar without online (as online was not present), but it's very difficult to save both the Geth and the... I forget, whatever masked girl is. I thought I did everything after reading up later, but I didn't follow a guide. I must have missed something. I think the point is to make you choose. I chose masked girl, even though I played femshep and had no shot with her. I just loved her character. (Liara romance all the way, no one in ME2 because you can't romance best girl there... and Jack blew me off because I wasn't a guy. Of course I tried.)
