  @RudeJackalope For me, personally is Mass effect 1. I could never finish it. I dont think its terrible, i just struggled with the controls and they felt clunky as all hell for me which is a skill issue on my end but i never got far into it before dropping it all together

  @sulmusa00 @Pirat_Nation Like we've seen this problem before with Mass Effect 1, assload of planets but when most of them are empty you just end up going to the storyline planets which just HAVE TO BE incredible and that really makes or breaks a game like that

  @okillum845 ?????? ***** it was Ea that pushed that game onto them not Bipware fault. This has been an ongoing issues with Bioware with EA even with Mass Effect (a series you like mind you)

  @wcnderfate okay so this was me I think you should 100% play mass effect first, dragon age is like. I’d say playing it for the characters is worth it but you NEED mods to fix the memory leak issues, bugs, and get past the fade/deep roads because the dungeons in that game are *terrible*

  🔬 The Two Big Categories Functional (Hormone-Secreting) These are the ones that really wreak havoc. They pump out excess hormone regardless of what the body actually needs: Type Hormone Excess Prevalence Prolactinoma Prolactin ~40% of all pituitary adenomas GH-secreting Growth Hormone Causes acromegaly in adults ACTH-secreting ACTH → Cortisol Cushing's disease TSH-secreting TSH → Thyroid hormone Rare Non-Functional These don't secrete excess hormone but cause problems through mass effect — compressing surrounding structures, disrupting normal pituitary function by crowding out healthy tissue.

  The problem, I think is that Baldur's Gate 3's romance and really character writing in general is actually kind of piss weak. Nobody feels like an actual person. It is so much weaker and less coherent than anything from early Dragon Age or Mass Effect.

  Nothing's set in stone yet on how Saudi management will affect EA but they're more interested in live service and sports titles. I expect Bioware to get sold off. I've seen people speculate Mass Effect and Dragon Age will individually be sold, but I doubt it.

  Am i overthinking it, or is it odd that Iran would cyberattack the state that is led by Tim Walz and not a hugely populated one for mass effect, and at the same time we were warned that AI had "broken free"? Prolly just overthinking.

  just doing things (@_abbie_watson_) reported 21 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.

  @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

  Why the Dark Energy plot was better. But the issue with that plot line was that it fit for a game that was a sequel to Mass Effect 1. But Mass Effect 3 was a sequel to Mass Effect 2 (which was a soft reboot of the series, not a sequel to Mass Effect 1).

  The problem I have with most animal x human races is also that they also seem incredibly lazy to me. I'd rather take the Hanar, Rachni or Elcor from Mass Effect over most of those. Also all Catfolk variants are just asking for it. I have permanently banned them from my table because of it.

  Dragon Age, Mass Effect and KOTOR sold because they were good single player stories, no live service required. Now the only thing these companies have to sell is their reputation, and they think its worth $80. I'll take the gacha slop over the struggle session.

  An analyst told CNBC EA might have to sell IP to service its buyout debt. Four days later, BioWare showed up in exactly that sentence. > Aug 2: CNBC quotes an analyst on the $55B EA buyout - "I don't know how EA is going to service this debt without... studio closures, and possibly IP sell-off" > the buyout added $18-20B in new debt to the balance sheet, confirmed across multiple reports this week > Aug 6: EA is reportedly looking to sell BioWare and other IPs specifically to pay that debt down > EA has not confirmed or denied it - the studio that made Mass Effect and Dragon Age is now a line item in a debt-service plan, not a press release Four days between "here is what selling IP would look like" and BioWare's name landing in that exact sentence is not a leak. It is a timeline. What is next on that list?

  Hans Blitz (@CCreations69) reported 36 minutes ago

  @SvensationalGuy That's what gives it some replayability but really the game needs more story choices that have impact, it's still very linear in pathing and commentary, while it gives the impression of playing a Mass Effect like game it doesn't have the choices in situations that change outcomes further in the game, it doesn't have equipment and weapon stats just some item slots and has very basic small maps with camera issues in certain areas of the map, While Ive enjoyed the story and customisation of characters I feel it lacks any real substance to class specialities and abilities, from a developer's standpoint the game isn't doing anything new in the genre, so it only gets 7.5 out of 10 for my final rating!

  true and the only game ive seen address this problem correctly is mass effect bc being called shepard doesnt break the immersion since it Is technically your name but being called leader in p3r all the time really ******* sucks

  @Swurv__ EA started this ******* plague upon the gaming community with mass effect 3 multi-player. Then it was like slot machines, they actually had to regulate it after Fifa if im not mistaken. You dont see the problem until you lose your account in one way or another. Hard won wisdom.

  @KenteMana @SwervoT3k @bioware the problem with DAO getting a remaster/remake IIRC is that there is almost nobody left at BioWare who knows how the game engine runs, so a remaster is almost impossible, and a remake is unlikely until at least Mass Effect 5 gets out the door just b/c of resource priority

  Colin Glassey - Author (@cglassey_author) reported 52 minutes ago

  The term "Open weight self hosted AI" is quite misleading. The weights of an LLM are a massive set of numbers which no human and no software can explain or clarify. In a very real sense the weights are not OPEN because no human or machine can read the weights and understand / describe what they mean. This is totally unlike "open source code" which can be understood. For all we know, the weights of an "Open weight LLM" contain hidden malicious errors, analogous to the error "Legion" used to destroy the Geth who were supporting the Reapers in Mass Effect 2. "Open weight LLMs" are fundamentally inscrutable.

  This is why live service games miss what iterative sequels used to do. The first game would always show the vision & promise. And the 2nd or 3rd game would be that REALIZED. Halo 2 Mass Effect 2 Red Dead 2 Uncharted 2 Witcher 3 Batman Arkham City Vice City/San Andreas etc

  my real problem isn't writing at all, actually, it's the combat. the action style requires more commitment to enemy movesets, which the game does not deliver on. the companion skills are gutted. the loop is very repetitive on further playthroughs. they made mass effect 2 two.

  Mike Becker (@_mainframe79) reported 56 minutes ago

  @Swurv__ Not entirely true. The progression of visuals hasn’t justified the costs. Look at something like Mass Effect. Perfectly fine visuals. Legendary edition fixed the old frame rate issues for being a 360 launch title. I would be fine with more games at that level of detail to get GOOD games

  The problem with halo after odst and legends, is that they took it into a direction that worked against it’s strength by making it more like mass effect(which already failed on it’s promise) and super lore reliant, when they already had a good setting as is, thus losing everyone.
