Star Wars’ solution to the problems posed by the former was the hyperdrive. Two areas illustrate this point particularly well: interstellar travel and the portrayal of alien life. Mass Effect seemed to place a far greater emphasis on realism, whereas Star Wars was more willing to bend the fundamental laws of science to suit its narrative requirements.
Having seen each of the various Star Wars films multiple times before I got my first taste of the Mass Effect trilogy, what struck me most when I first booted up the 2007 original was the rigorousness of its approach to the scientific concepts that underpinned its universe. Despite its flaws, I actually believe BioWare’s Mass Effect series offers a marginally richer, more immersive, and coherent universe. The thing is, despite its cultural significance and some genre-defining qualities, for me, personally, Star Wars isn’t the pinnacle of science fiction. Nevertheless, I have a great deal of affection for George Lucas’s sci-fi masterpiece. I don’t have Star Wars-themed bed sheets I don’t cosplay as Darth Vader on weekends I don’t queue outside the cinema for days on end prior to the release of the next installment, just so I can be amongst the first to see it and I don’t have a room chock full of official action figures, complementary novels, signed posters, and commemorative crockery. I’m certainly not a die-hard fanatic by any stretch of the imagination. We should see more information about the subscription service's upcoming launch, as well as more EA-published games that are coming to Steam, during the EA Play Live presentation on June 18.Notwithstanding the title of this article, I want to make one thing abundantly clear before I begin to defend my position: I am a big fan of Star Wars films. As usual, cross-play capabilities are enabled between Origin and Steam, so all the multiplayer games that arrived today should receive a nice bump to the active player numbers.ĮA Access is also coming to Steam very soon, though a release date hasn't been announced yet. All of them seem to be complete editions too, thus including previously released expansions (if any). Just as before, all of these games have discounts applied that slash the prices by either 50% or 75%. Here are the nine games that landed today: Today, the two remaining Mass Effect games, five Battlefield entries, and the rebooted Battlefront titles that all skipped out on Steam releases have landed on the Valve platform. EA pushed out 13 of its games onto Steam last week as the first wave of transfers from its own Origin platform, and now, it is time for the second (massive) wave.
