Loving my playthrough of ME1 so far...besides the story, I never had many fond memories of the first one despite keeping my created ME1 Shepard character throughout the entire trilogy.
Every time I started a new playthrough before the remastered version, I started at ME2 using my Shepard end of ME1 save (Spared Wrex, Kaiden Alenko dies.. etc, etc)...ME1's crude control system by comparison to 2&3 just put me off going right back to the start. Now that it's all been remastered, I'll get the full experience all over again from beginning to end.
Here's to my future love affair with Tali all over again...I never recovered from watching her take a swan dive off that cliff in ME3 (due to not having enough paragon points to save both her and Legion). I was so emotionally wrecked, I couldn't face playing the game for 3 weeks
Now that was proper story telling in a game. The emotional highs and lows, falling in love with Edi's voice (acted by Tricia Helfer), the interaction between her and Joker... feeling cheated with never seeing Tali without her helmet, even after the love...and death scenes.... Loved every minute
