  KOTOR, Jade Empire, Mass Effect 1, Dragon Age Origins, all of these games frigging rule, and most of them are legendary influential games If EA can not force their hand on anything, let the live-service elements go, give them time, I'm confident they'll make a worthy game (6/6)

  Apologies for ending the Mass Effect 3 stream early. The audio issues between the quiet dialogue and overly loud SFX were creating a frankly awful viewer experience. I am definitely going to try and find a way to fix that for next time.

  I got into Mass Effect not too long ago and now I’m about to witness it crash and burn again

  @TJPhoenix3 The Reapers are the most advanced civilization we know in Mass Effect. If they couldn't figure it out then how could the current cycle in Mass Effect solve it? Because the problem with this ending is that the galaxy is doomed if the player destroys the Reapers.

  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.

  I disagree on this You absolutely can make a new Mass Effect game. There's plenty of ways to go about this. Andromedas issue was not Ryder.. And Andromeda I feel would have been improved with some DLC And I'm very tired of Veilguard being a punching bag in these arguments

  @SaraJoan11 You're making assumptions for everyone that played it. Like I and many have said, there were other problems with the game competely outside Shepard and their legacy. Having legacy at all can artificially boost a game. Who's to say without the Mass Effect brand the game would have even burst out of obscurity? Just because you enjoy the game enough to make a twitter page about it, doesn't mean others can't seperate their bias and fairly judge. You can like what you like but condescending to me doesn't change the facts. The game was rushed out the door and by doing so, a lot suffered. The pacing was off, the story wasn't incredibly cohesive, the characters weren't as compelling as they could be, it was riddled with bugs and problems, there was no real consequence to choice, the open world structure wasn't developed properly, etc. If a game can't grow on it's own at release, it is not healthy.

  Wait, people skip Mass Effect 1? Is this a thing? Surely not. Mass Effect 1 isn't some problem child or inferior game we all just slog through in order to get to no2. It's brilliant, you learn the universe, become a S.P.E.C.T.R.E, Garrus, meet Saren, Garrus, explore, Garrus.

  @KaiKai2492 Tbf, games have tried to implement the squad/command system (Brothers in Arms, Mass Effect). A core issue has always been 'why spend time ordering AI when I can just shoot them myself'.

  @RazorFist The ammo clip for Mass Effect 2.. why. Why ******** do that? The weapon system in the first game was great and it did not need to be revamped. Sure the shotgun was broken as hell, but it was FUN.

  @taunttitan401 @RealMarcFoxx Well, when I heard the actor's voice that plays garrus in Mass Effect, that was a huge moment. I went exploring, and I killed a sick bear. I mean just give me a sword and a village with problems and I'll solve them all.

  @LordOfTheKink @Dreamboum @TigoODonnell If anything, ME3 makes ME2 better cause it's just one whole part of a grander tale regardless of how the ending went. On its own merits...Mass Effect 2 has got some problems.

  @Marcodmeatball but I cant get my self to play them. Idk how to explain it. I played some Mass Effect because of a recommendation from a friend and Amanda and that was fun but the same problem began 🫠 Many of my friends are playing Crimson Dessert and are enjoing it. I was thinking on buying

  @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…

  Bob Marshall (@isrven1) reported 31 minutes ago

  @nuhre_ The issue is whether Bioware have any writers capable of the type of story and dialogue that was in Mass Effect 1 through 3 and excluding the woke nonsense. I don't believe they do, but we'll see

  @RazorFist I've always hated that Mass Effect 2 decided to change the genre from rpg to shooter with rpg elements. I also really hate that they addressed the problems with ME1's inventory system by just stripping it out completely.

  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.

  He's not targetting "mass effect fans" with his comment there. He's targetting the types of online creators that take one inch of a controversial topic and pick at it for months on end, applying criticisms (like "SJWs") that aren't even relevant to the core issues at hand.

  Nope. Skyrim is my first and only Elder Scrolls game and I played it back when it first released on Xbox 360. I wasn't familiar with RPG's either at the time with only Demons Souls and Mass Effect the games I played previously. Took a second but I got through it with no issues.

  Riddle me this Batman. What is the endgame of Skyrim?. What is the endgame of elden ring? What is the end game of Fallout? What is the end game of Mass effect? What is the end game to every single story driven RPG out there? This isn't a live service game.

  @LNamarcil @travis2504 @DeathMetalV The million other problems are related to the terrible developers who are woke and unloved. Bioware had non woke staff for mass effect 2. Til 2012 The Bioware after that got super woke and went super broke It's you lol

  @ElkenrodKarmic @tekarino @QuiteShallow Broski you brought up Mass Effect Andromeda. I was simply bringing up other examples. As for Taash, as i said in my other comment. I have problems with their writing but i disagree that they're terrible
