  @kalaelizabeth "chuds" made it a punching bag because the game was not up to standard for a mass effect game. people didnt like it because they have high praise for mass effect, until devs, etc realize this they will never discover that it is their problem to fix, not ours

  This is actually a major problem Mass Effect 2 had. While a brilliant narrative game, it's mechanics were incredibly simple and unengaging because it did little to deter cover-based strategies. Mass Effect 3 sought to make combat more mobile, and it succeeded with flying colours.

  @MythicMgames Andromeda is a good game in itself. The problem is that it doesn't have what made Mass Effect great. Companions are bland, choices seem less impactful, story is not as good... combat is great, though. IMHO, as long as you don't expect it to be as good as the trilogy, go for it.

  @HariSel57511397 Wrong. Mass Effect 2 is peak ME. The only problem is it is where Mass Effect watered down the class/skill system to become more palatable to normies.

  Please fix your game launcher app @EA. Not only it went down a lot of times, can't even unlock @Steam achievements when playing @masseffect Legendary Edition game 2 and 3. You guys forced Steam players to use your app, but not able to fix things like this?

  Okay so APPARENTLY Mass Effect 1 Legendary will ALWAYS crash when I try to mark weapons as junk in my inventory and throw them out. Why... WHY

  Still playing through Mass Effect: Andromeda, and this time through I haven't had to look up the solutions to any of the Remnant puzzles. I remember on my first playthrough that I had a lot of problems with the puzzles and just couldn't figure them out. But now my mind is primed.

  @RazorFist Mass Effect 1's only real problem was the combat. The story, atmosphere, dialog, and setting were fantastic. ME2 changed it from an RPG into an action game where you had some skill points. The gameplay was tighter but the story was half-assed and the final boss was a joke.

  @NoahNCopeland I've noticed that high effort/quality mods will generally avoid the word "fix" in the title (even if they arguably *do* fix a glaring flaw, like Mass Effect 3's ending).

  @VolkariN7 It would had been a decent start of a trilogy. A lot of kinks and problems could had been fixed in a sequel. Andromeda is a objectively better game than Mass effect 1.

  @DanticsOfficial The Mass Effect trilogy was BioWares Mangum Opus. They tried chasing that high again with their sequel game Andromeda but that fell flat. And then they tried chasing the live service model with Anthem and look at how that turned out. And finally they tried chasing the modern audience with Dragon Age: The Veilgaurd…

  People just need to accept when their stuff just isn’t very good at its core. I didn’t find the gameplay to be the issue with Andromeda, though it could have done with better level design. It was the writing, and many people play Mass Effect for the writing. The plot felt boring to go through and lacked the gravitas that the original Mass Effect had. Things happened, but never did I really think they mattered all that much. That is very much due to the party members, who didn’t feel all that distinctive at all from on another or were just so forgettable beyond their shared snark that I just tuned them out after a while. The dialogue choices themselves lacked any weight because most of the time you just said the same thing, but either as a jerk or a nice person. That makes choosing dialogue a chore, not something you really have to think about. The combat was pretty good though, I’ll give it that, though rather than letting us switch to all classes I’d rather they have much more robust class systems with deeper skills and specializations. That creates much more unique scenarios per playthrough rather than just swapping to whatever at any point in the game. Recognize your faults when people point them out. Dismissing those criticizing it at “chuds” is such a cope you just sound pathetic.

  (mass effect borrowing actual jewish liturgy for quarian culture but having no Jewish characters is a problem, actually)

  @JamieMoranUK I've been wanting a faithful Mass Effect adaptation since I played the games back in the day. I'm a huge Mass Effect fan, and now everybody in entertainment must have an IQ of 80 or below to get in. My heart is broken.

  This news angers me to the very depths of my soul. You have no idea how badly I was left broken after #HaloTheSeries. I take lore seriously. And I treat the lore of my favorite franchises with absolute respect and love. If @amazon @PrimeVideo ruins #MassEffect for me… I just…

  @nuhre_ ME:A would of been better game without being attached to Mass Effect - that is the truth; the game play was fun, but yea the uglification of characters; infamous lip sync issues - and again certain characters written like crap killed it.

  hm - i'm having some internet issues on my stream PC, but the game PC is completely fine, so tentatively moving Mass Effect to tomorrow night unless my troubleshooting works :)

  @Waefent "butchering for DEI" as if mass effect itself isn't diverse and inclusive already, this is not the problem in the slightest

  @LavenderGhast I love Mass Effect, but there are 2 problems with the writing: numbers are vague, and you can't be too mean to the player. You can kinda tell they didn't really know how long ago they wanted the first contact war to be from the way Ashley and Presley talk about it.

  HDR game analysis (@HDRgameAnalysis) reported 47 minutes ago

  @Infrastructur31 @mrpyo1 There are native HDR support in Mass Effect Legendary Edition (ME1, ME2, ME3). If you have a good HDR capable display, then why not use HDR instead of SDR. The fix in the video is very easy to do.

  “Busy workin” is not an update. It’s what studios say when they need players to stay calm while they figure out whether the next thing is actually coherent. Mass Effect doesn’t have a lore problem. BioWare has a trust problem. Silence stops feeling strategic when the last few years went the way they did.

  @PMaka1991 Compilation of games (like AC: The Ezio Collection, Halo: MCC, Crash, Mass Effect, etc.) also needs separation of lists! 🏆

  @justbrowsintidy @maxdeploy @WeAreMassEffect Except it was good. My personal take is if people think it sucked actually don’t understand Mass Effect as a whole. And yes there were a large vocal group who whinged there was no Shepard. The problem largely came with EA doing what EA does best and that’s being total ********.

  Amazon is ordering major script rewrites for the Mass Effect TV series. They want to modernize it. It’s the same old story where a studio takes a loved universe and starts hacking away at it because they think they know better than the source material. I want to enjoy a space opera without a lecture. Especially one where I’m not wondering if the writers even liked the original game or if they’re just trying to "fix" something that wasn't broken. Usually, when a show gets ordered to undergo massive rewrites to make it more accessible or modern, it just means they're stripping out the soul and the grit that made people care in the first place. Amazon has a habit of doing this to established franchises. We’re likely in for another project that values a message over the actual craftsmanship of the world. Expect the worst.
