  @TwoGhostPixels No one changed Dragon Age or Mass Effect, dumbass. Stop making problems up in your head to get mad at.

  Mass effect a little low, but other than that I see no issues

  @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).

  @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.

  @gielmont This game conflicts me because many parts of it are very well done, but then other parts are just repetitive fetch quests. Mass Effect Andromeda was made using the same engine near the same time, I think, and suffers many of the same problems.

  @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.

  @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

  @mcuban You might find this interesting! So here's my MRI results... This is a workman's comp injury, I'll post the explanation of grok of my MRI results and then show you the doctor's report that grok analyzed Your cervical spine MRI (without contrast) shows multilevel degenerative (wear-and-tear) changes with loss of disc height and signal throughout, plus straightening of the normal forward curve of the neck but no vertebrae slipping out of place, no bone-marrow problems, and a completely normal spinal cord with no swelling, damage, or compression. The C2-C3 and C7-T1 levels are entirely normal. At C3-C4 there is only a small disc bulge causing very mild narrowing of the right nerve-exit opening. At C5-C6 there is a small disc-and-bone-spur complex that does not herniate or narrow anything. At C4-C5 a disc-and-bone-spur complex produces a 2 mm central disc protrusion, mild narrowing of the main spinal canal, mild narrowing of both nerve-exit openings, and a small tear in the outer disc ring. The most important findings are at C6-C7, where a disc-and-bone-spur complex includes a broad-based right-sided disc protrusion that causes only mild narrowing of the main spinal canal but moderate-to-severe narrowing of the right nerve-exit opening, putting clear pressure on the exiting right C7 nerve root, along with moderate narrowing of the left nerve-exit opening as well. Overall the main spinal canal itself has no more than very mild stenosis, so the key issue is the right C7 nerve compression that can produce neck pain and possibly radiating arm symptoms. The mid-August MRI report objectively documents multilevel degenerative disc changes with a notable 2 mm central protrusion at C4-5 plus a broad-based right paracentral/foraminal disc protrusion at C6-7 that produces moderate-to-severe right foraminal stenosis and clear mass effect/compression on the exiting right C7 nerve root (along with mild spinal stenosis and other mild bilateral foraminal narrowing), yet the August 20 work-comp follow-up note lists only the soft-tissue diagnoses of “sprain of ligaments of cervical spine” and “unspecified sprain of left shoulder joint,” contains zero mention of the MRI, the disc protrusions, the stenosis, or the nerve compression, and releases you to regular duty with only brief restrictions through August 27; this mismatch is inconsistent because the imaging evidence of structural disc herniation and nerve-root compression is entirely omitted from both the listed diagnoses and the work-status decision, which instead frames the condition as a simple ligament sprain that would ordinarily be expected to improve far more rapidly than the documented compressive findings.

  @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

  It really does suck that in Mass Effect: Evolution it is marketed as "First Contact War Shown" and its ends so quickly its genuinely baffling. And not only that but the Illusive Man just goes to Illium like its no problem. First human on an alien world and no one cares. The other comics are much better but why did they introduce the Illusive Man like this? Sure show him in the First Contact war but don't make it seem like its about the conflict and also just let time pass so the next event makes more sense. Also having Saren encounter the Reapers this early is weird when he encounters them for what I presumed was the first time.

  @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-

  @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. 🫤

  @GameStalgiaX Playing Mass Effect Legendary Edition... mainly cause I do have to play through ME1. Don't get me wrong I love all 3, just ME1 isn't as refined as ME2 & ME3. Also will defend to my dying breath that the Mako isn't the problem, the terrain design is the problem.

  @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.

  @IGN Notice how these articles always start with “former”. Anyway Mass Effect 5 has a long shot as it is. Announced this game 5 years ago, and still have nothing to show for it. New owners are hardly the problem here.

  @WeezSays @LonoSG Not true for all of them. Steam’s own offline-mode FAQ even says games that use an external launcher often won’t start. You lose multiplayer, sure. But a lot of single-player titles still won’t launch if EA App, Ubisoft Connect, Rockstar, or CDPR’s REDlauncher can’t phone home. I’ve had that exact problem with Mass Effect Legendary Edition (EA) and Witcher 3 after the next-gen launcher got added. “Steam games play offline” is true for some Steam games. It’s not a blanket rule when the publisher bolted a second storefront onto the install.

  @wesleytypes @masseffect Nah, ****** take, ME2 is totally better than first ME and ME3 because 1st was clunky af and mako mission were annoying and broken (me 2 had them too, but only in dlc) and ME3, bc that's me3, ****** ending and to much useless drama for nothing.

  @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

  T00NYBOY (@T00NYBOY) reported 40 minutes ago

  @HAmorata Mine came out with this: "This is @T00NYBOY *Proceed with extreme caution.* On the surface he looks harmless—British, tea-obsessed, soft-spoken, the sort of bloke who keeps an owl called Oswald and a dinosaur called David as permanent co-hosts. Do not be fooled. He will greet every problem, argument, or mildly difficult video game with the words “Challenge accepted,” then proceed to throw plot armour and pure stubbornness at it for twelve consecutive hours. He has been known to attempt hardcore Subnautica, every Stellaris crisis at once, and 24-hour anniversary streams purely for the principle of the thing. Resistance is futile; the stream will continue. He unintentionally funnels every conversation back to Mass Effect. You can start talking about the weather and somehow end up discussing Paragon interrupts and the Reapers. He will do this while sipping tea and looking entirely too pleased with himself. He is also the kind of person who returns from holiday to find his community has left him a pleasant surprise and immediately posts “Aw! Come on lads and lassies!” with genuine warmth. This makes the warning harder, because he’s actually quite likeable. That is precisely the danger. If you engage, expect long game playthroughs, unsolicited Dynasty Warriors opinions, Spider-Man rants, and an unshakeable belief that he is probably the sidekick who dies early but still shows up anyway. You have been warned. Tea is already being poured."

  @MichaelFKane The entire problem with mass effect is that the renegade path is objectively the correct and good way to play, until ME3, where it becomes a cartoon evil guy.

  No official word that EA’s new owners will sell BioWare — just strong LBO logic. $55B deal closed this week with ~$20B debt. Standard playbook: cut costs + sell non-core assets. BioWare fits (Veilguard miss, Anthem flop, now <100 staff, no reliable cash flow). Analysts flagged it months ago; ex-producer Mark Darrah noted selling studios/IP can knock real money off the debt. Waiting for the Amazon Mass Effect show (filming late 2026 → 2027-28 release) could revalue the IP like Fallout did. Smarter long-term move on paper. But debt has a clock (~$1B+/yr interest). Private owners usually prioritize quick deleveraging over waiting 18-30 months for an unproven TV boost. BioWare isn’t a cash engine like Sports or live service. If it does go on the block, the most logical buyers are Microsoft (Game Pass + RPG appetite) or Sony (single-player narrative strength). Amazon is a dark-horse option thanks to the TV series. Disney is a longer shot. Short-term incentives lean sell. Long-term value leans hold. We’ll see which wins.

  @Pirat_Nation Problem is “remaster” is a fancy term for ai-upscaled graphics and that’s it. Devs these days almost never put any effort into actually fixing stuff. Look at the mass effect legendary edition. So many opportunities to add stuff that would have made the games better, but nah..

  @OrikonMods One of the few things stopping me from replaying Mass Effect story after more than a decade of having not played it is the fact that many of the best mods have serious compatibility issues with each other. I want them all, but I can only have some of the mods.

  @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.
