Got it for XBox. It's pretty sweet so far, but good god, the text is almost entirely unreadable at times.

How bad is it, and where? I really want to play this game, but I'm poor as fuck and don't want to ruin myself on a fun game by squinting the entire time.
It's pretty damn small to the point that I usually sit close to the TV when I play. I've heard the small text size being compared to Dead Rising which I've also heard is pretty damn small. It doesn't ruin the game, but it's sure as hell annoying if you don't have an HD tv

Yeah... Mass Effect 2 pulled a Dead Rising with their text.

It kind of frustrates me that they're so laissez-faire about it.

Okay wow, planet-scanning is boring on the consoles. Another reason for me to continue my "fuck consoles" tirade. Scanning is literally 30-40% the speed of PC scanning, with Miranda's upgrade, and assuming the PC scanning is not upgraded.

Just pointing this out, but I was bumping around on the ME wiki and it might be a similar problem to Garrus' face in ME1 where because of how the game was programmed, it would take a multi-Gig patch to fix. (Which honestly makes me wonder what the hell they did, but still.)

Granted, it shouldn't have been an issue in the first place, but when your target audience is likely to to either not have an issue with it due to having a modern computer monitor or a high-def TV set, or possibly getting a high-def set in the near future, things like that can slip through the cracks. I mean, crap, my grandparents have a digital TV now. It's only going to be a matter of a few years before they rule the market outright, if they don't already.

Again, not saying it's right, but it is understandable in a way.


Edit: Funny enough, I'm not actually finding any information on the tiny text there.


Edit again: Their official statement seems to lend credence to the difficulty factor.

It's exciting with a mouse!

Edit for Edit: All I noticed was I had to keep picking up my mouse and setting it back down so often it looked like I was trying to sand down the mouse pad.

Analog sticks, please.

I'd thoroughly recommend the PC versions of Mass Effect if not for the massive damage it's doing to my keyboard.
Seriously. Trying to get ME1's Mako to move up steep inclines not only takes five straight minutes of diagonal navigation, it takes five straight minutes of pressing down on the W button, to the point where the WASD buttons on my keyboard have a thin layer of sweat-induced crud on them. I'll have to find some way to clean this off. But here's hoping my keyboard continues to work in (somewhat) pristine condition.

Maybe instead of blaming ME you should just bathe every once in a while!

Yeah, I'm 100% certain that this has nothing to do with bathing.

Well there goes my horrible joke, drowned further into awkwardness by Snake's super-serious poo-headness.
