  @AwokenAngelxoxo @lovesmagic4ever I hate getting staggerfucked. It was a huge issue I had with a specific faction in Mass Effect 3

  @sasajuric By careful selection of dependencies that are battle tested and have well defined APIs that have already figured those things out. I build healthcare apps, so FHIR + Material UI + Meteor + D3 gave us a huge amount of API surface area for the LLMs to work with. Now then, there is a needed critical-mass effect for it to work. Things didn’t get really good until 250K lines of code; and we started with a tech stack that we had sorted out a lot of problems over the past decade. So, I wouldn’t say we *never* look at the code. Just that it’s possible to hit critical mass, where there’s enough source materials and enough rules, that the most modern models can start self-assembling code according to spec, and… it’s as good or better than anything I would write by hand.

  @Polygon It's completely disingenuous to paint critics as bigoted right-wingers. people upset have no problem with female protagonists. This claim is demonstrably false. look at Horizon and Tomb Raider. people are just sick and tired of the cultural/social engineering. studios ruin everything. Mass Effect with Andromeda, They ruined the Star wars franchise, Amazon ruined The Lord of the Rings. The Odyssey is making the Greek characters black. No one wants to be preached at (like you did in this article). if you create a compelling world with a female protagonist no one's going to care and everyone will enjoy playing it. just leave the things we love alone.

  @hg17_daisuki I used to run Veilguard on my old PC it had both an SSD and an HDD and games would lag because Windows was running slowly in the background. Veilguard wasn’t the only thing causing the lag, and I was especially into modding, but it took up a lot of space. The Mass Effect mods I downloaded took up nearly 20 GB in total. Now that my new system doesn’t have an HDD, I can’t download many mods. Those were the good old days I really loved modding back then.

  @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.

  @Pirat_Nation Once again modders will fix what the devs try to wreck with these games. Just like when the modders brought back the Miranda buttshot in Mass effect legendary edition. Although that game was far less ****** with than Halo appears to be.

  @tokyosdaughter hmmmm this is a bit of a take where i can have mixed feelings much as i dislike woke and DEI and all that shi. Didn't mass effect / kotor followed a similar pattern? it was ok issue should be indoctrination ig but art and design different have always existed, not a fan tho

  @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.

  🔬 The Two Big Categories Functional (Hormone-Secreting) These are the ones that really wreak havoc. They pump out excess hormone regardless of what the body actually needs: Type Hormone Excess Prevalence Prolactinoma Prolactin ~40% of all pituitary adenomas GH-secreting Growth Hormone Causes acromegaly in adults ACTH-secreting ACTH → Cortisol Cushing's disease TSH-secreting TSH → Thyroid hormone Rare Non-Functional These don't secrete excess hormone but cause problems through mass effect — compressing surrounding structures, disrupting normal pituitary function by crowding out healthy tissue.

  @DanVMaul Halo Reach & Gears 3 were the only 1st party games. Mass Effect 2 was timed. Witcher 2 was exclusive by happenstance But you just showed that Xbox was relying heavily on 3rd party exclusives which was the problem & dwindled as time went on

  The problem with halo after odst and legends, is that they took it into a direction that worked against it’s strength by making it more like mass effect(which already failed on it’s promise) and super lore reliant, when they already had a good setting as is, thus losing everyone.

  @nuhre_ They also have a massive problem with mass effect 5, juat conceptually. It won't be a sequel to andromeda so it has to be 3. Now are we playing shepherd again or a new character? Anything but destroy reapers seems impossible to really continue. What choices do we go with? Do we import? Really hard to do now so will we pick? There are so many setting issues involved which will cause massive problems. And thats before we even begin.

  -sticking to any kind of plan. Dark energy, the Cerberus plotline, so many little things were clearly planned and then dropped. You then had the Mass Effect 3 issue where two particular figures wanted the Shepard of ME3 to be their image of Shepard, not the players.

  @Slumdog_Milly I have no problem with your take, I simply disagree. If your problem is with the story, fact of the matter is that not every game will give you full narrative freedom. It's like Mass Effect or the Witcher, you get a preset character and get to make some narrative decisions to

  @kachi_uchay @olusesan__tolu I don’t see the issue. TLOU left behind told us how she discovered she was immune. The Witcher 3 blood and wine did send-off for Geralt. Mass effect 3 expanded upon shepherd. Plus the dlc was Free

  The biggest issue is that the average consumer got into the MCU and it made a gorillion dollars so other companies focus tested the **** out of what the normies actually liked. They then took that information and figured "if we apply this to literally everything we will make tens of gorillions!" Not realizing that not only would this invite the wrong crowd in, it would push out the ones already there who were buying their products. There's a reason modern AAA gaming sucks and it's because normie level MCU enjoyers figured if they liked slop and ironic quickly dialogue with sassy characters that everyone else would. They then proceeded to nuke every franchise they've been a part of with one dimensional characters and sassy girlbosses in a "subversion of the genre/media you're used to" type writing. It's funny when you think about it that there are very few IPs that never fell into this trap and they're doing just fine if not better. Franchises like Gears, Halo, Mass Effect, etc all used to take themselves seriously to some degree. They had writers who cared about telling a story and making a game that was fun to back it up. Now it's live service, accessibility, representation,and a whole host of other dog **** design decisions that took these games from console sellers to the bargain bin on the verge of collapse. The video game industry needs to pop again. Cause right now all my favorite franchises ******* suck and I only enjoy playing either indie games or gacha games like Nikke and GFL2 atm.

  @darkmagas @Pirat_Nation There is no easy way to say this back. Been there, done that, still ended up back on Console as many others I've known over the years have. PC isn't some blissful oasis. Some nice things about it, but its also just chaos on that platform. How many chat clients do I really need? Is it going to be the GPU drivers or a shotty CPU or Bad RAM that takes me out of the experience next? Why is consistency such a problem for PC? Great I have a large catalog of old games, but that doesn't change the fact that I to have a catalog of old console games. I still game on PC now and again. Love my Steamdeck, but I'm looking forward to a portable PS6 more than I am looking forward to the next steamdeck. Valve has done nothing for their achievements and switch to a Microsoft space is not really acceptable to me as I'm looking for Linux gaming, not windows gaming. Epic..... ya no... GoG great in concept, but not in practice. Then there is the 3rd parties that seem to think launchers in launchers was a good idea. Still annoyed that I can't play Mass Effect Legendary Edition without first being connected to the internet. Just let me play my damned game.

  @AMWorley_Writer @drowwpoison @kalaelizabeth It makes more sense when you look at Mass Effect 3's multiplayer as the reason why EA wanted to get so heavily into loot boxes and live service in the first place, it was wildly successful where Inquisition's multiplayer failed and they were chasing that high ever since

  @femshep_com @nib95_ But you are talking about a particular case (female Shepard). I'm talking in general. Totally different things. Just because few people had issues with it (Mass Effect case), doesn't mean that there's a general hate towards female protags, because there is not.
