  @Knight10293847 I’d say the same thing about Mass Effect…go find these Turian Insignias knowning that some Lovecraftian Horrors are about to invade the galaxy. Almost any open world game has this issue. Skyrim only escapes it by having a plot so uninteresting you don’t care about the narrative

  @DanticsOfficial The only issue with using Mass Effect 1 if it doesn't really affect much besides one special mission in the first game in a few passing references in the sequels. I think Dragon Age would have been a better example

  @Grummz All this work they are putting into a game that will sell 70% less than it would have if the protagonist was a custom character like Mass Effect had. Easy fix. Naughty Dog let US decide what our main character should look like. Cause what you made is going to kill your sales.

  @biggieU_U @Henry10113 I absolutely love mass effect, literally one of 3 tattoos I have is from ME, 1 is ******* rough to play, probably the best story but the game play was bad even when it came out, tried and dropped after the big Game Informer issue on it, only went back after playing and loving 2

  If it’s an RPG with a choice, I’m picking the guy. Mass Effect, Pokemon, Skyrim, Cyberpunk, etc. I’m never picking a girl. It just feels weird saying “this is my character.” But a game like Stellar Blade, Eve isn’t supposed to be me so I have no problem with it.

  @PandaSub2000 I think @BioWare REALLY needs to fix “Mass Effect Andromeda”’s failure to load save game files game breaking bug.

  Shadow (@SevenSeaSinbad) reported 10 minutes ago

  Mass Effect Andromeda on Insanity is way harder than I expected, never had any trouble with the original trilogy so was expecting the same with this game but damn. Going to try and stick with it though, but if it reaches a boiling point I have no problem going to normal or easy.

  Blue Thundyr (@bluthundyr) reported 11 minutes ago

  @Arron_TK Yeah. They hate single player games. I bet they cant wait to kill Mass Effect so they can tell Bioware “see? Nobody wants your games, how about making a live service shooter?

  @BethesdaSupport @Fallout @BethesdaStudios Maybe fix Starfield on PS5 while you're at it. What a broken mess. Crashes more any game I've ever played. Mass Effect Andromeda has nothing on this game.

  it sounds so silly to wonder if I should get final fantasy 7 or mass effect andromeda lmao but I’m curious on how the mass effect franchise changed and the problems people had with it myself! I could always watched a review for it but it wouldn’t be the same yk?

  J (Code Veronica Airplane Mode) (@ClairekRedfield) reported 15 minutes ago

  @FionaCher12 My issue is that the devs in Bioware expressed clear interest in trying out a remaster for it, and EA told them no. The guys at Mass Effect in fact were the ones to pitch it bc EA had a clear favouritism problem and they were aware of it.

  @GreenTextRepost he didn't really solve the service problem, he solve it on an indie scale, but the corporate side still treats customers like absolute ****. I bought mass effect legendary edition for my steam deck, and it bricked itself due to the drm I had to find a "special copy" that worked.

  @Jason Go fix the ending to Mass Effect 3. . .. ..

  @Shiza_Kiwami No, a lot of remakes are just unnecesary. I played mass effect for the first time a year before the remakes were announced, i never had an issue with the original game

  Romances in Baldur's Gate 3 aren't fundamentally different than Mass Effect from nearly 2 decades ago. BG3 is just a longer game. Still has the same annoying problem of either making a character dislike you or wanting to bang with no inbetween.

  @G27Status Whenever I feel very low, and drained, I always do a mass effect trilogy run through - Disconnect from online for two weeks and just game - A solid way to recharge

  @LauraFlowD Hey now, right before i hit “post” I moved the TL;DR up from the very bottom of the post to the top! Surely that was a public service I also miss Mass Effect

  @Ak1raExe @ShiroSaints777 I had spent 3 hours trying to login into EA launcher for Mass Effect, when I finally could I had more troubles lol. Then I couldn't refund anymore 😭

  @DanticsOfficial I think this is fine in shorter games but I have to be honest, if I was locked into a playstyle in cyberpunk at hour 50 and I knew I was only halfway through the ******* game and I was hating it, that'd be a problem. I'm saying this is a huge Mass Effect fan.

  @AwokenAngelxoxo @lovesmagic4ever I hate getting staggerfucked. It was a huge issue I had with a specific faction in Mass Effect 3

  HurtboxTV | MS-623 EWGF Custom Type (@HurtboxTV) reported 36 minutes ago

  The biggest issue is that the average consumer got into the MCU and it made a gorillion dollars so other companies focus tested the **** out of what the normies actually liked. They then took that information and figured "if we apply this to literally everything we will make tens of gorillions!" Not realizing that not only would this invite the wrong crowd in, it would push out the ones already there who were buying their products. There's a reason modern AAA gaming sucks and it's because normie level MCU enjoyers figured if they liked slop and ironic quickly dialogue with sassy characters that everyone else would. They then proceeded to nuke every franchise they've been a part of with one dimensional characters and sassy girlbosses in a "subversion of the genre/media you're used to" type writing. It's funny when you think about it that there are very few IPs that never fell into this trap and they're doing just fine if not better. Franchises like Gears, Halo, Mass Effect, etc all used to take themselves seriously to some degree. They had writers who cared about telling a story and making a game that was fun to back it up. Now it's live service, accessibility, representation,and a whole host of other dog **** design decisions that took these games from console sellers to the bargain bin on the verge of collapse. The video game industry needs to pop again. Cause right now all my favorite franchises ******* suck and I only enjoy playing either indie games or gacha games like Nikke and GFL2 atm.

  @TheGingerPerks Both Outer Worlds games are decent. Low quality Mass Effect vibes. The original has more humor than the so serious second game. Avowed is garbage. Pillars is mid. Kotor 2 is broken and half finished. They've never been a AAA studio. Just the hard truth 😕

  @TheHiddenOneAC Mabey its because I've played yakuza and mass effect, but is it that much of an issue seeing reused animations?

• 
  又 (@travisleelilley) reported 42 minutes ago

  @Nick_White_AOS I tried so hard to like Veilguard and Andromeda had mad potential if they didnt force the live service crap. The reason why Kotor and Mass Effect 1 stand the test of time is because thats when Bioware did what THEY wanted and weren't studio slaves

  @PapitoQinn It could have been more and it could have been better unfortunately, they tried to imitate Mass Effect with the voice protagonist and narrower dialogue choices but the execution had a lot of problems.

  @vicious696 Been playing on the cloud only for the past year, works very well, no need for a console. Main issue, a lot of owned games are either 1 not available or 2 locked behind game pass ultimate example mass effect legeandry edition I own but need ultimate to play.

  @Polygon It's completely disingenuous to paint critics as bigoted right-wingers. people upset have no problem with female protagonists. This claim is demonstrably false. look at Horizon and Tomb Raider. people are just sick and tired of the cultural/social engineering. studios ruin everything. Mass Effect with Andromeda, They ruined the Star wars franchise, Amazon ruined The Lord of the Rings. The Odyssey is making the Greek characters black. No one wants to be preached at (like you did in this article). if you create a compelling world with a female protagonist no one's going to care and everyone will enjoy playing it. just leave the things we love alone.

  There’s really no issue here they have collaborated with other mature franchises such as Mass Effect and Fallout
