  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.

  @trepidofficial I have been waiting for a video game crash ever since Mass Effect 3 in 2012 I won't lie, I too used to fall for the remakes and remaster trap, but not anymore, I'm done, I'm up till here with this **** I want this industry to burn, and nintendo to go with it, they deserve it

  @brockpierson Elder Scrolls Online, Skyrim or Morrowind or Oblivion, Mass Effect Legendary, Witcher 3, or Cyberpunk 2077. The issue with doing it 12 hours a day if an MMO would be downtime due to maintenance!

  @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

  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.

  @Authw8 mass effect 1 is still absurd as by then they must have developed room temperature superconductors and the heating issue would be no more

  @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

  @splitcann @GamewithDave That may actually be my problem. I never played the first one, so I never got connected to the overall story and the characters the same way I did with, say Mass Effect or Dragon Age.

  @IGN Mass Effect: Andromeda could've been a good game if; 1. BioWare wasn't struggling with all their internal issues at the time. 2. EA gave them time to familiarize themselves with their forced upon engine of Frostbite. 3. EA allowed them time to cook on the writing instead of-

  @AcademicAgent_X Biggest problem with KOTOR is its turn base system, doesn’t fit the flow of Star Wars combat. Look at Mass effect same people similar design but without the turn base system.

  @valentinbjs_ If you're looking for the same experience as the original trilogy, you'll be a bit disappointed. The game is Mass Effect at its heart, but it feels much different than the trilogy. It's not an amazing game, I have some issues with it. But overall, good game that is worth playing

  @WeAreMassEffect Mass Effect Andromeda is way over hated. It’s a good games that was designed with sequels in mind. EA is and will always be the problem when it comes to BioWare games. BioWare could have easily fixed up issues and added content if EA weren’t cowards.

  @1GamewithDave1 I can't say it matters all that much. The only time it was an issue for me was Mass Effect. I selected FemShep and was grossed out because dudes kept hitting on me or misreading my dialogue choices as invitations to romance. It was a very educational experience.

  Mass Effect 2 is criminally overrated. Good game, but its where everything went wrong. A lot of the problems with ME3 & maybe Andromeda can be traced back to 2. Its also the turning point when BioWare went from a respectable RPG developer, to the vapid AAA game company it is now.

  I’m enjoying the game so far but if I were to guess some of the problems people have with mass effect 3 it’s probably that it seems more linear? Like there’s a lot more cover shooter stuff and a bit less rpg stuff not an insane amount I think but it is there

  @Faubaulaus Mass effect 1 is unfortunately the best in the series, not even close. And Mass effect 1 has a lot of problems

  Romances in Baldur's Gate 3 aren't fundamentally different than Mass Effect from nearly 2 decades ago. BG3 is just a longer game. Still has the same annoying problem of either making a character dislike you or wanting to bang with no inbetween.

  I just beat Mass Effect 3 for the first time and I am broken. I have synthesized the galaxy and ensured peace forever but no Shepard makes me sad. Best story in gaming I have played.

  Crazy how quite literally almost all the problems that Mass Effect 3 had to deal with was because ME2 delivered almost nothing in terms of plot but also actively **** on its own lore to become a space theme park cover shooter blockbuster.

  @SicklyTheNinJa My issue with Mass Effect is that the FIRST playthrough of every game is a fantastic time... but then replays are an absolute slog. In fairness, I also feel this about KotOR1. But KotOR2 I still happily come back to every couple years.

  @5umando Even then it still doesn’t work. KOTOR, Mass Effect, Cyberpunk etc. all face that same issue. Yea, you’d basically have to make a dating sim, but I think it’s even deeper than that. It’s just really hard compared to a game with a singular character.

  The problem isn't that the games are similar btw. It's the "is this mass effect 5?" "Is that tali?" "Where's the dialogue wheel?" comments from people who can't separate the two. People want Mass Effect I get but don't hate the game when it isn't that. Just play Mass Effect 😭

  to anyone saying that people who don't like the new god of war because you hate woman and female lead characters in games, or you only like characters that are half naked and 'hot', which i am one of those people who does not like the new god of war i love Cynder the dragon, the second lead in legend of spyro dawn of the dragon, how is she half naked and hot? i love Grace Ashcroft who is not half naked, she is also one of the lead characters, i love Claire Redfield, she is not half naked, also a second lead, Lara Croft, yes she is technically half naked, but i do not find her 'hot', i love female Shepard from Mass Effect, she is not half naked, she is also the main character, unless you choose male Shepard, i love Jill valentine, she is not half naked, she is also the second main character, i don't find any of these characters 'hot', but i still love playing them, because they are interesting characters, i play video games because i want a good story with good characters, if you are going to make your lead a female, make them interesting and not bland that are perfect in every way, just to put bs diversity, none of these characters i mentioned are perfect and bland, they make mistakes and have problems, that is what makes them good just like most male characters are not perfect, Kratos is a literal murderer who is technically a villain, Leon is a rooky cop in re2 and fails a lot through the game, and in re9 he is trying to fix a mistake he believes is his fault, Ethan from re7 and 8, is a regular guy who struggles his entire way through, in 8 he is trying to rescue his daughter, he is not perfect but he pushes through all these characters are good and interesting because they are not bland, they are strong characters but they are not perfect, that is why people love them, and that is why people do not like most modern games with female leads, because it is not about making good games, it is about putting diversity where it should not be

  @moonchild23580 I don't smoke or drink. Had an alcoholic and chain smoking father. Never want my kids to see anything like that. It was awful. But for me.. I'll get lost in music . Tv.. movies . Or the biggest one video games. Games like Skyrim, fallout 4, starfield or the mass effect series. Those help me a lot with my issues.

  @WeAreMassEffect Excellent science-fantasy but not excellent sci-fi. Anything other than Destroy is the Reapers throwing **** at the wall in a last-ditch effort and actually succeeding in deceiving Shephard. Everything 'wrong' with the story of ME3 actually started with ME2 when Bioware catered to Fox in cutting down the ****** alongside killing off and resurrecting Shepherd in the first 5 minutes of the game (!!!). Story of ME2 was ***. The Collectors should have been an arc or plotline but not the entirety of the game. You can 100% have the Systems Alliance send Shepherd out to find more data on the Reapers, who then ends up fighting Batarians, criminals, xenophobes, the Terminus Systems, AND the Collectors. Andromeda actually had insane potential but Bioware ****** up by not hiring me as their lead writer and producer. Fighting the not-Collectors with an Asari archaeologist and Krogan mercenary while trying to save Humanity & Co. is not good enough of a plotline. Cerberus should've sacked the Elusive Man the moment he was indoctrinated. ridiculous. ME4 needs to take place after a Destroy ending where: 1. with the destruction of the Relays, long-distance, immediate FTL travel is impossible. 2. with the general destruction that the Reapers caused-- 99% of all life in the galaxy, essentially, and their corresponding civilizations and industrial base-- ME4 needs to either take place 100-200 years after the events of ME3 or be a survival-horror 'RPG' 3. If ME4 takes place a ~hundred years after the events of ME3, then having the option of being Liara's offspring (and explicitly confirmed if you romanced Liara). if not, then all other species ought to be available 4. the vast majority of Turians and Quarians stuck in the Sol System after the destroy ending would end up starving to death because 5σ of the galaxy's industry and population has been destroyed and they cannot eat 'normal' foodstuffs 4a. the vast majority of Turians and Quarians in any fleet that is not predominantly of their own species ought to starve to death due to the lacking of their specific foodstuffs 4b. the vast majority of the survivors of the Reapers (<1% of galpop) ought to starve, dehydrate, or otherwise die to raiders or other starving, sick people. simply not enough resources to go around in the post-apocalypse 5. if you chose to fix the Genophage, the Krogans have to be THE singular dominant power in what was Citadel space. if not, there should only be one or two total in the entirety of the game as their species goes extinct 5a if the Krogan are led by Wrex, then the Krogan in general would be part of the Citadel's Council alongside Humanity 5b if the Krogan are led by Wreav, then the Krogan in general would not be part of the Citadel, drastically weakening it for the plot of the game alongside granting a quest where you have to 'recruit' the Krogan or at least get them to sign a pact of non-aggression/interference 6. the Egalitarian, Xenophilic polity that would eventually emerge at Sol would become the capital of the New Citadel-- mostly because they have the highest population and the most salvage in their system 7. the enemy for the first non-survival of the post-apocalyptic horror entry in Mass Effect ought to be a resurgent Terminus Systems. they have no ******* idea where the Reapers came from or how to beat them-- only learning that they're tied to Citadel space.
