  @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.

  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.

  @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!

  @AshenOne_VI Biggest issue the game has? It turned Dragon Age into Mass Effect. Thats not what the game was for 3 games, why change it on a 4th?

  Halo 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

  @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

  @EA @EAHelpOfficial_ I still have not received a response or resolution regarding either issue documented in this case. Mass Effect: Andromeda will not connect to EA’s online services on my account. This prevents me from accessing the game’s online and multiplayer functionality. I have already attempted the available troubleshooting steps, but the problem remains unresolved. Second, I purchased Mass Effect: Andromeda multiplayer DLC packs specifically for online multiplayer content that I cannot access because the game will not connect to EA’s services. I am therefore requesting a refund for those online DLC purchases. The purchased content is unusable through no fault of my own. This case has already been pending without an adequate response. Please escalate it to a support representative who can examine my EA account, game entitlements, and purchase history and provide an actual resolution. Thank you.

  @GreasyPixel I've been on PC now for two years or so, and I've had far less issues than I ever did on console. Granted, I don't play games day one. Hell, I'm just now playing Mass effect legendary edition.

  @MD_Chaos4 By the way, in your opinion, what was the biggest problem with Mass Effect of how did badly execute its lore?

  JSWebsterAuthor (@JSWebsterAuthor) reported 28 minutes ago

  @The_Lord_Otter This is the problem with many games today. The graphics are amazing, but it’s all the same vanilla. This is your basic third-person perspective GTA, RE, Assassin’s Creed, Mass Effect, yada yada regurgitation of something else. Does it look fun? Sure, but it’s the same flavor with a few new sprinkles.

  @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. 🫤

  @kennyistyping idk there's like a mass effect issue also lens had somewhat the right idea of being just a backend but when you are so open ended curation gets hard and even moreso when you have adversarial usage. i think it takes something really paradigmic to get you off of that.

  @ElaraVtuber Mass Effect Andromeda. I unironically enjoyed the game despite its many issues.

  Verratus_Dominatu ✌️😈💜 (@Verratus_Speaks) reported 32 minutes ago

  @Pirat_Nation As someone who has done this, I can tell you why. It's because the games turn to dog ****. Very few games that are single player complete products actually Have 200 hours worth of content. Run the study again, only this time only check reviews on single player games that are complete products, no longer receiving updates like BG3, Witcher 3, Mass Effect Legendary Edition, so on. And the handful that do like BG3, obviously most people overwhelmingly, positively review. The games that do typically get 200 hours or more are either some form of live service or survival game. Which at first is very fun and actually gets you hooked, but then as you play through hundreds of hours you either hit a completely dead end game, or grind or otherwise. Have multiple issues that you have now played the game long enough to start to realize or it's a live service that becomes complete **** long after launch implementing things that no one asked for, that no one wants at best. or at worst goes years without fixing or patching basic bugs, resulting in developers basically neglecting the game. Either way, it results in a negative review, at least for me, because I don't put up with that bullshit. At least not without calling it out.

  Surely not❄️🔥🦊 💜🦴🐟 💔💙 (@inth3nearfuture) reported 33 minutes ago

  @CorbynRed Its funny how, everytime someone says that, they basically JINXED the Game and Studio to fail. I heard people say that to Vailguard... Now Vailguard is the Reason that, if Mass Effect is not absolutely and 100% appealing to the predominantly male audience, the Studio will close. Then we have Avowed, which underperformed so hard, with "The Outerworld 2" as follow up Titel. AC Shadows: I would assume they are still in the Red, AT BEST near "broken even". Coming from a monstrous Company we saw, that even those games can fail. And EVERY. SINGLE. TIME... i got the statement "They will sell extremely good" and further cope... At the end, every game underperformed massively.

  @void_cache @Mangroxian I like to mod games, Mass Effect, Cyberpunk being a few of them, but the sheer amount of mods I download often takes up a good chunk of space, so I transferred them to the external hard drive. I try to mediate this issue by letting the game load in for 5 to 10 minutes, but its-

  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.

  Rick O'Shay (@shay_o66668) reported 36 minutes ago

  @luskybe @DanticsOfficial Tim hijacking the role of the main villain feels completely contrived. And having service be the main enemy is contrary to what all the marketing showed. All the marketing showed us fighting Reaper forces. They didn't show us fighting Cerberus troops. Cerberus was established in the previous game to be an untrustworthy but important Ally. Mass Effect 3 was supposed to show us all putting our differences aside and fight a much larger mutual enemy. Instead we have 18 missions fighting Cerberus and only 11 fighting the Reapers, and fighting the Geth for five missions. And if Cerberus was brought in to diversify the enemy forces, well, the Reapers could have easily done that they intermixed the reaper units with the collector units.

  @QuarianKaiRazu @MassEffect_News EA won’t rest until every single BioWare franchise is turned into a live-service casino full of microtransactions. Mass Effect deserved better.

  bongle (@Bongl0id) reported 42 minutes ago

  @wesleytypes @DawnwalkerGame @RebelWolvesDevs Do you even comprehend how annoying it is to write a whole trilogy like this, or the numerous problems it caused mass effect? You know why they introduced a new solider in 3? Because all the previous ones could be dead. The dumbest people ruin those games.

  @DanticsOfficial The Mass Effect trilogy remains one of the most interesting and memorable sagas available. ME3's issues are varied and only catch up with you in the finale. Boring, anticlimactic, disconnected from your choices—and those RGB endings combined with those explanations turn a writing mistake into an insult to the player. Plus, the revised ending added via patch made a bad ending even worse. And the answer to your question is: NO! Just because worse things have come out in the following years doesn't make what EA/BioWare did any less severe.

  @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.

  @Knight10293847 yhea in general that the actual problem of veliguard it a mmo disguised as a single player and they couldn’t really change that felling to make it more like a dragon age or mass effect

  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.

  @kalaelizabeth I don't want to call them "woke" because thats not the right word and its become a sledgehammer like so many others. Mass Effect and Dragon Age always had societal themes and engaged with social issues ahead of their time (Dragon Age got gay marriage before the U.S.A)

  i was super exited to have a chance to meet mass effect cast but now all i wish for this con is to fail tbh, creating an extremely unsafe and uncomfortable space for fans and pretending the problem doesn't exist is so ******* disgusting

  @Grummz No. Anthem should have never happened as conceived. If it was a single player game with some multiplayer attached on, sure. They wanted live service and it was not built for that. They sacrificed Mass Effect for this game.

  BXG (@Lawgiver771) reported 58 minutes ago

  @aaronmail1994 Can you give an example? Most of the time it's bugs causing issues, but they end up getting fixed with an update. I’ve been on PC for 2 or 3 years now, and the only issue I’ve had was a bug in Mass Effect 1 that I found a workaround for. Most of the time I just install and play.

  @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.
