Riceatron (@Mikearice) reportedHalo Reach is the Mass Effect 2 the of Halo in that it's followed up immediately by a worse game but if you're smart you can see that it had all the same problems the whole time
-
неопізнаний йернящий мужик (@litauchij) reported@Dark_Emerald077 @tunechistark st how badass Kat is. the game that influenced me the most, Mass Effect, is also filled with cool women, and I never badmouthed any of them. the problem is korra is written like crap. just like that new marine gal in the halo remaster. it was never about what's in their pants.
-
Feyn (@superfeyn) reported@TakoMowgli I'm using toybox for that problem... 👀 They should've used combined amount of conviction points for check instead of using amount of one conviction, like Mass Effect 3
-
Ella (@jnxznvik77) reported@Eon_Nova @nostalgiaa Mass effect and crash bandicoot mentioned 🎉🎉

-
Chaoticbruh (@voodoo_by) reported@MassEffectHYPE From what I've learned the new mass effect is suppossed to take place after the events of ME3 problem is the game is taking to long and most of the hype it could have is dwindling fast , hell most think its a hoax and not really in development
-
Julian II (@JulianHeliosII) reported@Knights_Path Thinking some more, when the player asks a question you have a problem to solve: The player idle while asking a question looks blank Mass Effect solved it through a close up shot here and there, obscuring the body so you can't see Shepherd's hands Baldur's Gate had transition anims between lines from pose w/ anim to pose w/ anim, which kept the silent protagonist of the dialogue engaging You should choose one of these, or a mix of both, to keep the character from feeling plastic. The speaker need not have this because they are generally receiving queries and questions from the speaker, but stance changes are crucial for the target speaker

The Moor Is Back For More (@FishKingBack) reportedMass Effect 3 was actually the best in the series and I had no problem with the original ending.

FinalBoss.io (@FinalBoss_io) reported600 employees is usually where RPG studios start translating “we know our audience” into “we need a wider one.” So Owlcat saying it won’t turn its back on hardcore CRPGs is good. It’s also a promise that gets harder to keep the more expensive your org chart gets. The risk isn’t that The Expanse: Osiris Reborn looks more like Mass Effect. That part is fine. Studios should try new shapes. The risk is the familiar disease of scale: every sharp edge gets treated like a market problem. Complex systems get simplified. Failure gets softened. Friction gets removed until all that’s left is “accessible,” which is industry code for less specific. Owlcat has earned more trust than most here. Pathfinder and Rogue Trader did not feel focus-tested into paste. That’s exactly why the pressure is real. Growing while keeping taste is harder than growing. Anybody can make the target bigger. Very few studios get bigger without sanding off the part worth showing up for.

Knight(Fate)1029384756 (@Knight10293847) reportedSo, it took me a long while to realize Veilguard was just Mass Effect 2 because I was forcing myself to see it in a Dragon Age box. But also I don't think Veilguard really hits that Mass Effect 2 plot set up until the City choice. Before it feels like its live service remnants had it visit every major hub so that the grind could start for it. Only for that to be changed and now they had to change it because they could. And the Mass Effect 2 plot set up works well enough to visit different locations and do it multiple times.

Oscar Vera (@OscarVera22) reported@donutzski Like for real... When mass effect Andromeda was broken it llooked better than this
-
Sora (@Sora_1303) reported@MischiefsYT @sony2k1 @LionsFanAccount if he was never intended to be the Protagonist then why was he? OK higher up forced them to but they still did it. My problem is with how They discarded him. I played as him for 150+ hours. That meant something to me. Only to not see him in Valhalla DLC. Mass effect did that.
-
aidenpryde (@aidenpryde) reported@ShouVertica @MikeyNohMore All Starfield had to do was try not to be NMS. They should have kept it tight, 2-3 star systems at most. But the bigger issue is that many of us expected Bethesda's take on Mass Effect. Instead we got Fallout 4 in space because Emil Pagliarulo is a talentless hack.

Emergency Medical Fella (@thatmedfella) reportedSorry babe, can’t talk. I’m doing the infinite xp mining laser glitch in Mass Effect
-
MR3D-Dev (@MR3Dev) reported@nuhre_ From what I saw the problem is they have Mass Effect Andromeda level writing, with characters that won't STFU in combat always having a quirky statement.
-
meeb 🧛🏻♀️ (@orinsbutt) reportedFix me non verbal mass effect time
-
Noir_Discourse🔞 (@Noir_Discourse) reported@Rookie_425 I was watching a friend stream this with a group, and no one there had any issues with this. It was all "oh cool an ODST" or "hey cool, is her name a Mass Effect reference?". Imagine my shock when I looked on Twitter the next day. 🫤
-
Dream (@dreamrog) reported@Tacofridge @Swurv__ No, that’s not a fix, at that point is no longer a BIG universe with hundreds of planets. If you like small you have Outerworlds, Mass Effect, Star Wars, etc. If you want BIG you have Starfield, No Man Sky, Elite Dangerous, Long Journey Home, Starflight. Is good to have both!

lesnara (@lesnara2) reported@OmegaAshura @BriskittyThe3rd @D1AndOnlyGage and mass effect had gays and bi hmmm thats funny its almost like the gay was never the problem. the problom with woke game sence 2016 was not that it had gays its was story being put last. just because its gay does not make it better. take it from some one who is gay.
-
nero (@n3ro) reportedGo fix the ending to Mass Effect 3. . .
-
Denise Roginsky (@Denise_TEW2013) reported@Larry13636248 @DevlinBrady3 @Wahoolet I don't think "woke" was a factor, but it has been a long time. The issue was that the game launched in a disastrous way, with graphical glitches during cutscenes. Mediocre writing, mediocre story, and it just didn't feel worthy of the Mass Effect name.

Winter ig🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈🇺🇲 (@ExPrinceWinter) reportedMf i got an unopened copy of mass effect legendary edition for 10 bucks for my xbone Halo MCC goes on sale regularly for 10 bucks, 6 games, pve, mp, AND pc modding for 10 bucks Fallout and Elderscrolls regularly go on sale Thats a skill issue
-
Joseph Sullivan (@Sulligy) reported@rockisinfinite the problem is not that they arent mysterious anymore. its that the way the mystery was unveiled was poorly done and full of retcons this is the kind of thing that ruined the reapers in mass effect, and would ruin stuff like gman in half-life if valve were ever as dumb as 343
-
Count of Arcadia (@ArcadiaCourt) reported@BasedChar_RE The problem for Mass Effect is that the ending to 3 is such an ending that you can’t go forward without addressing it, and Andromeda tried the reasonable concept of avoiding it. However, BioWare screwed it up from story to just making sure the game worked.

Knight(Fate)1029384756 (@Knight10293847) reportedMy first gut instinct is to agree because yeah. Mass Effect doesn't need a canon ending and it should by all means respect what the players have done and explore those consequences to their natural conclusions. What the rachni choice should have been is exactly that. If you killed the rachni they shouldn't have showed up at all in ME3. Imagine hearing from a friend who killed the rachni and them saying "I didn't get that mission. Like I saw Grunt and we fought Reapers but the rachni didn't exist in my game. I killed them." And just being struck by how that decision not only makes the renegade choice correct (in a way) but also such a vast difference. An entire enemy type and race just doesn't have influence at all in the game. But that didn't happen. What happened is the rachni game back regardless and the only difference was if you paragon'd you paragon'd again to get war assets. If you renegaded you renegaded again to not loss war assets. Something that does have an effect but its not what the player expects on a bare bones basic or even what they wildly might think. And that is the issue with the ending choices of Mass Effect. The promise such divergent stories that can't simply be crunched into a similar path. There will just be fundamentally different conflicts and issues with each one of them. This video does suggest they just do what Mass Effect has always done but that is accepting a comprise instead of expecting what it should natural be. Not having different assignments to show that "Hey there are differences?" But genuine world differences. Synthesis is described where conflict isn't really a factor anymore. Where everyone knows what its like to be someone else. That story, that exploration of the themes would result in a much less action oriented game and more something like Disco Elysium where the central conversation is about what this life is like. Control is likewise a very different kind of conflict where smaller scale wars could happen. But galactic conflicts just won't exist. Something like a Krogan Civil War is just unlikely to happen with a Shepard controlling the Reapers. Where they could easily stomp down on any major conflict. And not only that but things like diseases, medically issues and similar things would nearly be erased. Maybe there is a story where Shepard becomes a tyrant and rules over organics as an AI god but I don't think many could see their Shepard doing that and I don't think BioWare could see Shepard doing that. Destroy likewise would just be about reconnecting the galaxy together and would be the one most similar to the setting before the Crucible. And all of this isn't even accounting for honoring other player choices. I mentioned it a bit with the Krogan Civil War hinted at in a N7 teaser but there is literally no way a Krogan Civil War can realistically exist in a Synthesis ending or a Control Ending. Not in the way the art depicts. Like I can not accept that if the quarians are dead in one playthrough that BioWare just goes. JK they live and the only difference is a mission. No, it should feel like a real loss. Something was fundamentally changed between a version of them living and a version of them dead. Because that is the promise of importing choices. A major decision was made and you will see how that plays out to its fullest. Not half, not a quarter but seeing it realized. The same feeling you get in a D&D session where a major choice you made comes back and makes you realize it would have been different if you made a different choice. I know for a fact that if BioWare does crunch the endings and the only difference is different side quests, I and other fans would be upset. Because that isn't what I wanted. The solution for BioWare is two fold. The hard path and the easy path. The first is they just buckle down make three games and honor the choices made in each game. Not saying Synthesis should be Disco Elysium but Mass Effect but its the one that makes the most sense in my head. But something that fully explores the ramifications of having this union between synthetics and organics. Same with Control and same with Destory. The second path is just canonize an ending. Its the easiest way because they can focus their efforts on story of the game instead of making a game that is literally about showing the player their choices and making the game before 2040. I think they should also canonize the Genophage, and quarian and geth choices because I know for a fact that if they don't it will be real sad seeing the only differences being less krogan, quarians and geth. And this isn't even considering the fact that the Krogan Civil War just won't happen at the scale shown in the artwork if Wreav is in charge, Eve is dead, and the Genophage isn't cured. Sorry but the krogan would just die out. Because the expectation of that combination of choices would be the krogan's extinction. Its how the games have framed it since the beginning and to alter that would introduce internal inconsistency. I hope this shows why this will be so difficult for BioWare but also why literally no other RPG studio has done it to this scale. What BioWare did with ME1 to 3 and DAO to DAI is astounding. Truly more than what I have seen. Because CDPR fumbled that and gave up with Witcher 3. Small example being Thaler is alive no matter what. And big example is that the dragon state you helped create alongside helping the Scoia'tael in the prior games just does nothing. No mention of it and not even the bare bones of them coming to help Geralt at Kaer Morhen. Obsidian did it fine enough but they just didn't do that with Outer Worlds 2 and Avowed. Larian? What about Larian? Larian has set each of their Divinity games 100s of years apart from each other just so they don't have to address it and on top of that they just are inconsistent. Only caring recently because they made it bigger. And don't even get me started with BG3. I know Wizards has already canonized events but what was with Viconia and Saervok? Just random guys with their names attached. Not even canonized endings just completely different people. Casey Hudson did an interview with Game Informer about this and he is right when he says this has to be planned out. So, many of these companions did these as features because BioWare did it because BioWare controlled what was supposed to be in an RPG. But as that feature waned without BioWare pushing it these other developers slowly removed it. Because its ******* hard to do. Great rewards if done right. A true feeling of your character existing in the world and having an effect long after it happened but a mountainous path it is. Again I want the hard path. BioWare. I'll wait man. Make three games and honor the choices of each of them. But as this video says its also about the money. And there isn't any reality where EA goes "Yeah, we can about 5 years with each release and for each of those games to be very different. Go head."

J.C. Chambers III (@JCChambersIII) reported@MichaelFKane @EidolonOracle I think the Star Child is less the problem than the color-coded ending options, even if people incorrectly associate the somewhat lacklustre ending with the Star Child. (Frankly, without the free update that they released, the ending to Mass Effect 3 sucked ***, but even with it, it wasn't amazing). But you're right. Hell, in Mass Effect's case, they were teasing the metaphysical twist from day 1. ME is an apocalyptic Biblical epic, after all. It would've made way less sense to NOT include the Star Child (or something similar). They just fumbled the implementation, likely due to budget/timing constraints.

D. (@MysterD) reported@PunlshedGundam @RohanKarMooN I had issues w/ games w/ multiple client-app/DRM's - i.e. Ubi games on Steam (PoP: Forgotten Sands, req. Ubi launcher); EA games on Steam (Mass Effect: Legendary, which req. EA App); & RDR2 on Epic (always req. R* app). Just always boot the 1st-party required launcher first.

Mortal Keegster - Hatality (@ThatTallGuy02) reported@MoralityCode @IGN Mass Effect 1 is an actual RPG with an actual plot. Mass Effect 2 is a third person shooter where the plot is to solve everyone's daddy issues
