Just wondering if should invest money into to this.
Is the game ultimately an improvement does is gameplay better...
If this is a good idea... i probably won't be getting it until next January (mainly moving August, September, or possibly October...
I don't have money to buy it at the moment, holding onto money until after the move.
(if lucky, i may be able to get it after Christmas)

I guess we'll know it when it comes out. Most remasters I've played were very good (e.g. Monkey Island, Full Throttle), but sometimes a remaster doesn't offer all that much improvement (e.g. Bioshock, Kingdoms of Amalur). Time will tell in which category Mass Effect fits.
They did promise gameplay improvements in the first game in particular. I think it may also be a good upgrade for people with modern AMD CPUs because they're fixing the compatibility issues in the first game. For console users, the increased resolution and framerate are also a big plus, because the Mass Effect trilogy had trouble maintaining 30 fps. I think it's also good for new players who want to try the series.

It will most likely be well worth it, especially if you don't currently own the trilogy since you will get all three games, and all DLC(except pinnacle station) for about the same price as a single game of ME2 and DLC.... The good news for you is you will have plenty of time to look at the game after release and decide, and hopefully shop for a sale.

From what I've seen so far, there are mostly visual changes.
But I haven't been keeping my eyes on news too much recently.
As for if you should get it... What were your favorite aspects about Mass Effect games?
If you want to engage the in the improved combat then the legendary version might bring some enjoyment for you.
It's mostly seems as a great opportunity for new players to try a deeply story rich sci-fi game they might not have experienced before.

I hear you regarding Conrad as I typically run the Paragon options and seeing him revert to the Renegade choice in ME2 was always a bit odd to be sure. Though the callback and reasoning for that in ME3 was interesting. That said, there are a number of bugs being fixed, actually!
While there aren't many specific mentions of which individual bugs are being addressed, the Project Director does have a number of tweets clarifying many bugs are being fixed, among other things. That's aside from the gameplay tweaks and other modifications, including updated character creation, so there's certainly a bit more work going into this than just upgrading the graphics.
Personal mileage may vary of course depending on one's prior experience with the trilogy and what they're looking to get out of the Legendary Edition, but it's definitely worth keeping an eye out to see how things shape up as we get closer to release.

Well, that sounds just great! The older version does run pretty well. The Conrad bug I was able to fix with the Gibbed editor. Only a few bugs here and there.
The only thing I'm REALLY looking forward to is seeing how the Mako runs. I REALLY love ME1, but the Mako always frustrates me to no end. I can't tell you how many times I've sworn to hunt down and strangle the person who created it.
I'm really going to miss Pinnacle though. It's really the only way to get all level 10 gear. That'll be darn near impossible without it.
I still won't be playing the ending of ME3 though. Can't bring myself to do it. Finished it once. Only once. Back when it first came out. Got me so upset I snapped my PS3 disk in half. Couldn't even play any of them for over a year. Even now, I can't bring myself to finish it. The ending is just... bad.

LOL, I didn't snap a disk in half, but I can barely play any of the original trilogy with ME1 being the easiest of them to get into. I can play ME:Andromeda and like it, but the ending of ME3 just grates so bad it soured me on the game.....I want MELE to come out but I will be ending the game run just before going to Earth again.
I have heard many people hate on the Mako, but as a PC player I didn't find it that bad. I did figure out how to read the land and map to figure out how to drive where they wanted you too, to make it easy to get around. I hated the ME2 craft much more, if for no other reason than the silliness of it's design and effects....you could actually kill the heavy Geth mechs by landing on their backs twice.....or shoot them like 50 times....So a craft that could be killed in two shots, can run under the legs of a Geth heavy mech, launch up with boosters, come down on it's back and kill it quicker and safer than shooting at it....
