  @Flake_E_Mon @ShitpostRock2 Im not a trekie, so Im not sure, but I bet a executor star destroyer and a mass effect reaper can face a borg cube with little to no problem, which I think are the most imposing ships in the IP. The first one is 6 times larger, the other can one shot the cube with its main cannon

  I feel like the next Mass Effect is going to be a live service game and even if it's not I have no faith in the game at all.

  @Faubaulaus Mass effect 1 is unfortunately the best in the series, not even close. And Mass effect 1 has a lot of problems

  @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.

  @KeenKolo @masseffect Oh yes, that's one of the issues I was specifically thinking of.

  @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.

  @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.

  @WeAreMassEffect Mass Effect Andromeda is a great game and was overshadowed by the launch bugs that were fixed as fast as we could notice. Same reason why Watch Dogs Legion was a fast hype and failure. It was a GREAT game, but worse than MEA, they didn't fix anything and left a lot of bugs...

  @ChampionsOTIce @LookAtMyMeat1 If they were in a combined reality. First thing that’s going to happen is the Imperial navy is going to destroy the Mass Effect relays. Indoctrination could be a problem but honestly if we’re talking WH30k there’s not a whole lot Reapers are going to be able to do against Titans and Imperial starships and that’s even before you factor in void shields. Ground units would fold like paper to Space Marines, Custodes, and Primarchs. I honestly doubt indoctrination would work on the Imperium super soldier units due to how complete their mental training is, and chaos has to literally corrupt the soul to get them to flip sides

  @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.

  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

  @RinoTheBouncer @dawiddrzala what about game file size. there's only so much that can be fit on a disc and a disc only utilizes specific data compression formats. mass effect 2&3 tried to solve this by splitting the game on 2 discs but it wasn't as effective as they hoped. the issue is that it will happen

  @stefan31415926 @SmashJT Yea I'm not going too. I cam play mass effect or pragmata for my Sci fi fix lol It would been cool to start with the content tho ngl Bungie really screwed destiny fans especially possible new ones.

  @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

  If Capcom somehow handles this correctly and fixes the big issues I had with this game, then I will stop telling people it disappointed as much as Mass Effect Andromeda. I loved the first game and always thought the bones were there in the second, but it was missing so much.

  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.

  Something that always puts me off Mass Effect Andromeda during a replay are the returning Aliens, they are really awful. But what I mean by that is how they were redesigned, and animated. Ill explain what those issues are...

  just doing things (@_abbie_watson_) reported 37 minutes ago

  @sasajuric By careful selection of dependencies that are battle tested and have well defined APIs that have already figured those things out. I build healthcare apps, so FHIR + Material UI + Meteor + D3 gave us a huge amount of API surface area for the LLMs to work with. Now then, there is a needed critical-mass effect for it to work. Things didn’t get really good until 250K lines of code; and we started with a tech stack that we had sorted out a lot of problems over the past decade. So, I wouldn’t say we *never* look at the code. Just that it’s possible to hit critical mass, where there’s enough source materials and enough rules, that the most modern models can start self-assembling code according to spec, and… it’s as good or better than anything I would write by hand.

  @CDRJohnShepard Netcode is a lot more stable so the mod won't crash as much as reach did. Community made shaders allow for PBR support. Levels also don't have to be sealed in Halo 4 so I can port mass effect maps pretty fast (Did this one in a couple days).

  @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.

  @gerogeroR I think a sci fi that actually shows the difficulty of a multispecies federation that doesn't gloss over the trouble caused by distinct life would be interesting. Mass effect got the closest but they still showed things mostly functioning normally on the citadel.

  @DestinLegarie As someone who doesn’t like FPS,I love Gears, mass effect etc. I like the witcher and not skyrim or oblivion and I like gta. Many ppl are like this. I like halo’s history and doom’s gore and looks, but can’t stomach the fps. That said, I think gamepass was the problem with doom.

  @kachi_uchay @olusesan__tolu I don’t see the issue. TLOU left behind told us how she discovered she was immune. The Witcher 3 blood and wine did send-off for Geralt. Mass effect 3 expanded upon shepherd. Plus the dlc was Free

  Jeremy G. (@XeoMafia) reported 56 minutes ago

  @DanVMaul Halo Reach & Gears 3 were the only 1st party games. Mass Effect 2 was timed. Witcher 2 was exclusive by happenstance But you just showed that Xbox was relying heavily on 3rd party exclusives which was the problem & dwindled as time went on

  Exalted Speed (@Exalted_Speed) reported 59 minutes ago

  I think Mass Effect 3 has some good stuff, I like some of the the new characters, but I think it's kind of bloated in order to turn it into this BIG AAA game at the time and some of it's issues still sting. Besides the ending.

  @Sebbywebz My big issue with the ending is the hard cut from everyone running out of the northern crater to the indeterminate time later scene. It very much came off like if mass effect 2 suddenly spliced in the stills from the extended cut of me3 when Shepard jumps to the Normandy.
