  @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

  @RavensFlock1312 Issue with these realism is they lose the art style and ironically makes it worse. Many game remasters did the same mistake like the recent Halo CE where it looks graphically impressive but devoid of the sauce that made halo CE pop. Same was done to Mass Effect 1 with Shadows

  @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.

  @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.

  @AdeIica @Flanz111 @HardwareSteam Bioshock worked. Cyberpunk, Avatar, Mass Effect didn’t work. I didnt feel like testing more games. I’ll just wait until they update it and fix it.

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

  @PeterP_1985 @jasonschreier I've been seeing poor decisions like this in the industry ever since BioWare attempted live service slop with Anthem. They should've given Anthem to their Montreal studio while the main studio in Edmonton worked on Mass Effect: Andromeda, but they did the reverse and paid for it.

  @onlypushinp @dreadwolf_solas Mass effect had big problem beetween 2 and 3 with some story part being scrapped, it is coherent because of the protag, the cast and the ennemy who in the end don’t change. You jusy can’t do that with DAO for example.

  @SoullessCorvus @For_Macragge It requires a lot of setup math. Hell I did Eve Online ships versus Mass Effect reapers years ago and it took about 300 pages of notes, math equations and a whole host of measurements. But the biggest problem is in finding a point of comparison. Compare the apples to the apples.

  Just entering neurosurgery at a Calgary Foothills Hospital. 5 hour surgery to decompress a cystic lesion (arachnoid cyst) in my skull base that’s causing mass effect on my v3 motor nerve. For over a year it’s prevented me from eating solids, proper jaw movement & sensory issues. Praying this turns it all around. 🙏🏽

  @Beastiarii @Darket696 @K__Med This is a misconception sadly. Robbie Bach was in charge during Xbox's most successful era. He's the one who launched the Xbox 360, he's the one who helped organize many of the studios and the companies IPs. Such as Halo, Gears, Fable, Forza etc. He was the one who planted a flag for exclusivity for titles like Bioshock and Mass Effect 1. he was head of Xbox until 2010. 5 years after 360's launch. That means that many of his decisions and efforts ran through to 2012. He's also the reason you got the NXE, Blades, Xbox Live, and the many deals for things like Netflix. When Mattrick took over in 2010, Xbox 360 was already a success and leading PS3. He greenlit the Kinect. He was the one who didn't continue the acquisitions of exclusives and studios while sony was stacking release after release after release. During his time he lost momentum and the PS3 caught up and surpassed the Xbox 360 in sales. He looked at the usage data of Xbox 360 users and decided that since most Xbox users use the 360 to stream entertainment that taking kinect to the next level and integrating a dying technology like cable TV into the xbox was the way to go. That lead to him setting course of the hardware and OS team to change direction for the Xbox One. It was under his watch that a shfit to overly strict always on connections was decided for Xbox. Then in 2013 he revealed the hardware, told 80m xbox 360 gamers that they should stay on 360 if they didn't want an online connection. This resulted in the walking back of a heavily integrated drm system and publication process that wrecked the XBox XDK to the point that it actually got worse. Ruined Xbox's reputation. Destroyed their good will. Gave Sony the opportunity to pull out in front for the next generation. Did I mention these decisions also hurt the hardware architecture of the Xbox One because focus was put on non gaming features instead of game development? Well that happened. Xbox One VCR model was inferior to the PS4. At 100 dollars cheaper with a proper architecture suited for modern games that weren't madden. Sony trounced on them. That isn't even getting into the stupid name he green lit that gave gamers a way to taunt the brand, X-BONE. This lead to the quick dismissal of Don Mattrick from his position as he went to zynga. This lead to interim leadership with Julie Larson-Green for the following year until Phil could take the position in 2014. That means Mattricks plans were still in play, Julie was forced to hold an umbrella for someone else. Competent enough for the job imho, but never given the opportunity to prove herself to do so, since she was just there to keep the lights on. Then Phil came on board and had to right an already sinking ship that was being outsold 2.3 to 1. That gap would never close. Phil started out his first full year in 2015. They redesigned the One for the One S to put it on better or equal footing with the PS4. Got rid of the Kinect and made it possible for the VCR model to better compete. Gave us the One X and Backward Compatibility program (which was not cheap). Launched game Pass. by time he corrected these things his one weakness began to over take him. He doesn't know how to run studios. He's no Shuhei Yoshida (neither is anyone at sony these days mind you). By time all of this came together in 2017, the xbox was delivering compelling exclusive software. It was taking 3 years or more to get something out the door. Game Pass sabotaged any chance at a win they had. Just look at how poorly gears 4 and 5 did as a result, especially with that 1 month free. Discounts for the Halo MC steelbook and halo 5 steel book were dirt cheap within a matter of months. Day one game pass killed xbox and that was probably his first true bad move. Mattrick wouldn't have done a better job in this regard. I feel game pass was inevitable. Mostly because of Satya Nadella's position on software when he took over. Windows, Office, Cloud, anything microsoft was either cloud or subscription models. Do with that what you will, but this is why I start pointing to Satya as the actual problem here. Gears and Halo could have helped make Xbox healthy. Again assuming woke changes and other crazy nonsense wasn't at play. I have separate opinions for that and they are equally as negative. So where does that land us? two ceo's left with a dumpster fire because of two men. Don Mattrick and Satya Nadella.

  @JosephMorris21 @uncle_deluge Mass Effect 2 is an entire game of plodding along and the whole story is frankly better if you skip straight to 3 and pretend Shepard met Miranda offscreen at some ****** service the saucy harlot.

  @nozostars I think my issue is ive been spoiled so badly by mass effect where all the men both straight and gay are tasty and fuckable so seeing even a few male romance options im not rlly attracted to kinda turns me off romance in that game 😭😭😭

  @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.

  @GamingPizzaBoy Now, I’m a huge mass effect fan. Andromeda hurt me. Wasn’t worth $20, let alone $60, but BioWare had earned my trust. Now I’m skeptical of them. I don’t have that issue with rockstar, no one should frankly

  Kinda wanna c*mm some art of Shirou and Saber in Mass Effect 3. I already had one done for ME1 and ME2, the problem is theres too many potential ideas

  @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.

  @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

• 
  Gefyrios (@fenerliyan) reported 50 minutes ago

  @Exorius84 @Pirat_Nation That's true but it's an industry issue. I would say Mass Effect and Dragon Age are not just any IPs. They still have huge fan bases and appeal and Bioware exists only as a container for these IPs. Otherwise nobody would be interested in Bioware at all.

  @art_rube The Mass Effect fandom has the exact same issue... Oblivious to the prolonged period of time that has occurred between the last release, and the last announcement for a new release. Like its been almost 5 to 6 years without a new game, and still they act like everything is fine.

  sukru tikves (@stikves) reported 54 minutes ago

  The problem is a studio or even an “established IP” means nothing without the actual talent behind it As much as I love BioWare and the Mass Effect universe, It would be a massive undertaking to bring it back to the level we were used to before. Still I will keep hope.

  @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.
