for more great content for this list
we’re picking out ten titles from across
a variety of mediums that in one way or
another should satisfy any fan of the
matte effect theory at least until the
release of Andromeda there are no
guaranteed on a voyage that will take us
point five million light-years away from
home
number ten Star Wars Knights of the Old
Republic
turns up that when it comes to sci-fi
Bioware or artists playing simple taking
the juggernaut that is the Star Wars
lore and setting a game long before the
events of the first film this game
explores the walls of the Jedi and the
Sith before the rise of the Empire
giving us a fresh cast of characters the
choice to either resist or be seduced by
the dark side of the force as well as
one of Timon’s greatest twists I see
there is more of your own self-generated
you may be swapping your assault rifle
for a life saver but the blueprint for
what made Bioware what it is today can
be easily seen through this journey a
long time ago in a galaxy far far away
what greater weapon is bad and content
enemy to your cause to use their own
knowledge against them number nine
Stargate Atlantis
[Music]
long before the Pathfinders made the
voyage into the andromeda galaxy this
spin-off TV series of the acclaimed
Stargate franchise took the Atlantis
expedition to the Pegasus galaxy where
their offworld recon team was led by
none other than hey Colonel Sheppard
20ml vampire is banana featuring a
plentiful mix of action and humor along
with a strong focus on exploration if
you are a fan of venturing into the
unknown with Mass Effect then this one
is an easy contender worthy of your
consideration not to mention it does
feature our man Khal Drogo so that’s
always plus you love you on this
Sunstone number 8 Hyperion bust up those
reading glasses kids because without
published sci-fi fantasy novels such as
these Mass Effect may not have ever come
to pass author Dan Simmons first
installment in what would become known
at the Hyperion cantos may lack Silurian
singing or story and region flexibility
but it does provide some rather familiar
narrative devices such as a roster of
diverse characters and a web of
interstellar jumping the lot to mint
well considering that one of the arc
ships in andromeda is named Hyperion
we’d say that in some shape or form that
the splendor of the original text still
shines through even in the video game
medium now he’s preparing us to tackle
the next great frontier number seven
days active series I’m not as if I
surrender now I’m never coming back
once you have me you intend to make me
disappear what does it mean to truly be
human at what point does humanity
transcend to the point where even those
who are more machine than man have more
of a soul than the rest of society
prepare to find yourself debating these
questions while simultaneously kicking
ass
whether you’re a fan at the neo-noir
escapades of jay-z tension or the
Augmented awesomeness of Adam Jensen not
only does this future paint mankind in a
bleak light but it also gives players
the chance to scratch their itch for
solving moral conundrums much like in
Mass Effect for those that were smitten
with the paragon or renegade Club
branching past and dealing with the
consequences of your choices the series
is definitely right up your alley
choose the nonviolent path where you
want one the Train work on number six
The Witcher series alright what did I do
this time no nothing I just wanted to
take you aside without killing the
others into what we’re up to
and what do we have to they may be on
opposite ends of the spectrum when it
comes to the universe’s they inhabit but
if you’re dying for a fresh start with a
video game trilogy massive in scope
Reming with characters masterful and its
storytelling impact with so many quests
you’ll end up losing sleep then no one
does it better than Geralt of Rivia as
the titular Witcher players find
themselves burrowed into conflicts
against both the greed of humanists and
as well as the threats of a whole
encyclopedias worth of monsters oh and
he comes with plenty of raunchy moments
for those who like their romance with a
little more spice
number five Foundation period if you’re
up for some further reading then we
highly recommend Isaac Asimov Hugo
award-winning series which sees a gifted
mathematician foresee the fall of a
great Galactic Empire due to his mastery
of psychohistory a form of mathematics
that allows him to predict the future
across the trilogy he posthumously
endeavors to preserve all human
knowledge for the chosen group of
intellectual all while outwitting the
less benevolent forces of neighboring
planets with diplomacy and humanity’s
advancement being at the forefront it’s
easy to see the parallels that Shepard
goes through while trying to prepare all
civilized life’s from the seen coming
threat of the Reapers Shepard did
everything right more than we could have
hoped for saving the Citadel even saving
the council humanity has the trust of
the entire galaxy number 4 Star Trek
Deep Space nine
we’ve got Cardassians on our back
doorstep we need to get by them
undetected you could draw attention to
any of the series under the Star Trek
manner since much like Mass Effect they
emphasize exploration across the cosmos
the comparisons and contrasts between
other species as well as the sacrifices
required to stop colossal threat however
we have to go with the show held by
Captain Benjamin Sisko for this one
given Deep Space nine Timothy to not
only focus on the darker aspects of
religion and race relations but also for
in general books that help new people
intend to accomplish you we want that
shape what is it you’re gonna to tweet
if you get with even some of our heroes
holding on to deep-rooted prejudices
it’s not hard to see the similarities
here given how Mass Effect deals with
both of these subjects in abundance
especially in the case of the Quarian
gues war our fleet is already attacking
uploading the code would destroy number
3 Wing Commander series and it is odd
duty to prepare to remain strong and to
remain the Jews since
star citizen is still a ways off we have
to go with developer chris Roberts
original undertakings that gave us all
the space battles we could ever want
while the gameplay mechanics between the
two series vastly differ
what with one being a space flight
simulator the cinematic storytelling
elements seen in the sequels can be seen
as a basis that mass effect most
certainly benefited from we’re here in
the hell is fun because pirates have
been disrupting the trade routes and
and out of the system as yet we don’t
know what their motivations are murder
betrayal and political injuries may have
all been perfected to a fine art in
modern sci-fi games but it’s fair to say
that this series had a helping hand in
laying the groundwork
number cue Firefly it may have been cut
horrific ly short but thanks to Joshua
his signature style of character
development on point humor and peace for
flipping genres on their head this space
Western still demands to be watched for
those that above all wealth enjoyed the
interactions between Shepard and his
crew and watching how those
relationships prove through every
dangerous encounter then the cruel
serenity definitely have you covered
sometimes you just want a duct tape her
mouth and dump her in the hole for a
month I love my cast injuries focusing
on a ragtag group on the fringes of
society who are on the run from an all
governing alliance the show’s heart and
sense of adventure will easily charm you
before making you despise the fact that
it only lasted one season
why did cancel if you shot me right
number one Dragon Age series
there may not be a thermal clip in sight
but trust us if you enjoy Bioware sense
of place character and mythos then we
urge you to take up your sword and
journey to the world of theta one day
they may write about me as a traitor
imagine a fool and I may be right and
either the Grey Warden talk or the
Inquisitor players will have a chance to
assume a new role and interact with
multiple races battle a whole plethora
of fantastical creatures define the
future of kingdoms with your choices and
yes even earn the love of some of your
freaky-looking party members honestly
who wouldn’t sleep at the chance to ride
the bull’ see you say that but you
really don’t know what that means do you
