  This and Mass effect suffer from the same problem, I think Amazon is turning into Netflix with their new stupid vision (modernized adaptations). The biggest problem is that Amazon has rights to half of the video games currently around and with their vision, I think they will be all doomed 💀

  @FiadhBaikal Reminds me of what they did with Mass Effect Andromeda. Had an actual model be the face capture and basis for the default female MC, she looked fine in the preview. Then for the final release they puffed up the face and it looked like **** Not a reference problem, a dev problem

  @DanticsOfficial @JCalabration6 I played at launch and enjoyed every little bit of it. It had all elements from Mass Effect 1. It had some issues, but this days any flaws means that the game is trash and it thrown under the bus. People don’t know how to appreciate **** this days.

  @army1325air So, make us kinda like a lite version of the Turians, I got it. I don't disagree, in fact I'm with you. I'm just worried about degrading the value of everyone's service. @grok mind explaining who and what I'm referring to when I mentioned the Turians from Mass Effect?

  Mass Effect 2 is criminally overrated. Good game, but its where everything went wrong. A lot of the problems with ME3 & maybe Andromeda can be traced back to 2. Its also the turning point when BioWare went from a respectable RPG developer, to the vapid AAA game company it is now.

  @Tectone Exactly. It seems the main problem with GoW is that they are using the wrong franchise. Its like when Mass Effect tried Andromeda without Shepard. I still liked the game as its own game, but I wasn't nearly as invested in it as I was with the trilogy.

  @CraigHarris456 @Silverbolt_1985 @ashestoashleys Cerberus in ME1 and ME2 may as well be two different organizations and that's the problem. I played a paragon Shep, he was not cool with working with Cerberus and they give you so little agency to voice that. Doesn't feel Mass Effect-y

  @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.

  @trepidofficial I have been waiting for a video game crash ever since Mass Effect 3 in 2012 I won't lie, I too used to fall for the remakes and remaster trap, but not anymore, I'm done, I'm up till here with this **** I want this industry to burn, and nintendo to go with it, they deserve it

  @AndorianRespect You mean, after the end of Mass Effect 1? The problems with ME3 are a direct result of ME2.

  @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.

  @Marcodmeatball but I cant get my self to play them. Idk how to explain it. I played some Mass Effect because of a recommendation from a friend and Amanda and that was fun but the same problem began 🫠 Many of my friends are playing Crimson Dessert and are enjoing it. I was thinking on buying

  @SerasReborn @Italianbagged yeah and you would meet a lot of anti-woke people who would not actually have a problem with those games, **** Mass Effect Legendary Edition, the only complaint the anti-Woke people had was EA censoring the game to pander to the feminist

  @WeAreMassEffect Excellent science-fantasy but not excellent sci-fi. Anything other than Destroy is the Reapers throwing **** at the wall in a last-ditch effort and actually succeeding in deceiving Shephard. Everything 'wrong' with the story of ME3 actually started with ME2 when Bioware catered to Fox in cutting down the ****** alongside killing off and resurrecting Shepherd in the first 5 minutes of the game (!!!). Story of ME2 was ***. The Collectors should have been an arc or plotline but not the entirety of the game. You can 100% have the Systems Alliance send Shepherd out to find more data on the Reapers, who then ends up fighting Batarians, criminals, xenophobes, the Terminus Systems, AND the Collectors. Andromeda actually had insane potential but Bioware ****** up by not hiring me as their lead writer and producer. Fighting the not-Collectors with an Asari archaeologist and Krogan mercenary while trying to save Humanity & Co. is not good enough of a plotline. Cerberus should've sacked the Elusive Man the moment he was indoctrinated. ridiculous. ME4 needs to take place after a Destroy ending where: 1. with the destruction of the Relays, long-distance, immediate FTL travel is impossible. 2. with the general destruction that the Reapers caused-- 99% of all life in the galaxy, essentially, and their corresponding civilizations and industrial base-- ME4 needs to either take place 100-200 years after the events of ME3 or be a survival-horror 'RPG' 3. If ME4 takes place a ~hundred years after the events of ME3, then having the option of being Liara's offspring (and explicitly confirmed if you romanced Liara). if not, then all other species ought to be available 4. the vast majority of Turians and Quarians stuck in the Sol System after the destroy ending would end up starving to death because 5σ of the galaxy's industry and population has been destroyed and they cannot eat 'normal' foodstuffs 4a. the vast majority of Turians and Quarians in any fleet that is not predominantly of their own species ought to starve to death due to the lacking of their specific foodstuffs 4b. the vast majority of the survivors of the Reapers (<1% of galpop) ought to starve, dehydrate, or otherwise die to raiders or other starving, sick people. simply not enough resources to go around in the post-apocalypse 5. if you chose to fix the Genophage, the Krogans have to be THE singular dominant power in what was Citadel space. if not, there should only be one or two total in the entirety of the game as their species goes extinct 5a if the Krogan are led by Wrex, then the Krogan in general would be part of the Citadel's Council alongside Humanity 5b if the Krogan are led by Wreav, then the Krogan in general would not be part of the Citadel, drastically weakening it for the plot of the game alongside granting a quest where you have to 'recruit' the Krogan or at least get them to sign a pact of non-aggression/interference 6. the Egalitarian, Xenophilic polity that would eventually emerge at Sol would become the capital of the New Citadel-- mostly because they have the highest population and the most salvage in their system 7. the enemy for the first non-survival of the post-apocalyptic horror entry in Mass Effect ought to be a resurgent Terminus Systems. they have no ******* idea where the Reapers came from or how to beat them-- only learning that they're tied to Citadel space.

  Nope. Skyrim is my first and only Elder Scrolls game and I played it back when it first released on Xbox 360. I wasn't familiar with RPG's either at the time with only Demons Souls and Mass Effect the games I played previously. Took a second but I got through it with no issues.

  The Wise Investor 🧠 (@TheWiseIC) reported 30 minutes ago

  Interesting take by Serenity - I somewhat agree. We are still very far away from this, however. Let me explain. Autonomous vehicles are already showcasing that even though they do 95-99% of driving tasks just as well, if not better, than humans, there are still those 1% edge cases that make or break the value added by autonomy. That’s because the margin of error is literally 0%, which results in passengers being fine or being crushed/impaled by a software glitch or blind spot. Humanoids will be no different. General purpose robots will likely take mass effect by the end of this decade and handle 95-99% of general labour use cases (warehouse applications), but there will always be edge cases where the cost of using them makes no sense if they can’t perform certain tasks. Lately I’m starting to approach the thesis that an AI singularity is fast coming, but I disagree on the timelines. I do hope the guardrails are in place to prevent the seemingly inevitable collapse of society with robotics.

  @J0hnADouglas They seem content to move forward with more trash like Rings of Power and Fallout than an actual well written show made by passionate creators. Well, this confirms my suspicion that God of War and Mass Effect are in serious trouble.

  @Pirat_Nation Of course EA had a problem with it 😒 Y'all remember when EA was responsible for Mass Effect, NFS, and sports games in the early 2000s? Great games there.. not anymore.

  xela (@memoryofxela) reported 36 minutes ago

  @5umando Even then it still doesn’t work. KOTOR, Mass Effect, Cyberpunk etc. all face that same issue. Yea, you’d basically have to make a dating sim, but I think it’s even deeper than that. It’s just really hard compared to a game with a singular character.

  Uncle Dee (@UncleDee2103) reported 36 minutes ago

  @splitcann @GamewithDave That may actually be my problem. I never played the first one, so I never got connected to the overall story and the characters the same way I did with, say Mass Effect or Dragon Age.

  Doing a bit in the first Mass Effect that I somehow NEVER did last time (the Bring Down the Sky stuff). Can't for the life of me figure out why, I enjoyed these enough that I played all three games back to back, so wanting to be done wasn't an issue.

  The problem isn't that the games are similar btw. It's the "is this mass effect 5?" "Is that tali?" "Where's the dialogue wheel?" comments from people who can't separate the two. People want Mass Effect I get but don't hate the game when it isn't that. Just play Mass Effect 😭

  I’m gonna ruin the fun with facts again. This isn’t new. It’s already been used successfully in multiple countries. Programs like Google’s Verily project release male mosquitoes infected with Wolbachia bacteria. Think of it like the Genophage from Mass Effect. The males don’t bite, don’t spread disease, and basically spend their entire lives trying to get laid (literally me). When they mate with wild females (unlike you), the eggs fail to hatch. Fewer mosquitoes get born, mosquito populations crash, and disease transmission drops with them. Field trials have repeatedly shown 70 to 90%+ reductions in local mosquito populations, along with major decreases in diseases like dengue. It’s a targeted biological control method that’s already been deployed at scale with pretty impressive results. If you’re asking why a gear account is telling you this? Had to be me. Someone else might have gotten it wrong

  @SleepyCount @Pirat_Nation Yea. Mass Effect is nearly 20 years old. Obsidian are owned by Microsoft. BG3 was made on a 100m budget. They really shouldn't have trouble gaining funding for a BG3 level RPG.
