  To any other Mass Effect streamers, I am having a problem on Mass Effect 3 where whenever I am in a conversation the audio becomes so muted that it becomes impossible to hear. All other sound is nice and clear, it is only in conversations. Anyone got a fix? I am using Streamlabs as my streaming software.

  @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.

  I generally don't have a laundry list of criticisms about Bioware RPGs, I just usually recognize their flaws and it's frustrating to have to point these flaws out when people try and make out DATV as something unusual. A lot of the issues people have with Mass Effect 2-

  @Tectone Exactly. It seems the main problem with GoW is that they are using the wrong franchise. Its like when Mass Effect tried Andromeda without Shepard. I still liked the game as its own game, but I wasn't nearly as invested in it as I was with the trilogy.

  @DannyINTEL Problem w/ a lot of these games is they end up having the same combat as Genshin or Wuwa They should have considered that with Urban settings it should have gameplay more similar to The Division, Cyberpunk, Watchdogs or Mass Effect Prioritize ranged gameplay over melee.

  @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.

  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.

  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

  @SandyofCthulhu Same goes for beta testers, back in the 90's we didn't beta test to get early access, we actually tested the systems and wrote detailed error reports with steps taken to repeat said issue, I will never forgive EA for what it did to Mass Effect.

  @BethesdaSupport @Fallout @BethesdaStudios Maybe fix Starfield on PS5 while you're at it. What a broken mess. Crashes more any game I've ever played. Mass Effect Andromeda has nothing on this game.

  @nuhre_ From what I saw the problem is they have Mass Effect Andromeda level writing, with characters that won't STFU in combat always having a quirky statement.

  Mass effect sorta has this I think? cause even tho you do choose Shepards childhood and service history we hear about their mom but were never given details on the family I think

  @The_Huskarl hey derry-do i have a problem for you how do you expand the audience for a big budget game like mass effect 2 without removing all the elements that made the franchise interesting in the first place? hey-ho yellow boots or something

  I had constant issues with Shepard looking crosseyed in Mass Effect 3. I figured maybe I just ****** up the character creator somehow. To experiment I went in the ME3 Appearance Mod menu (A mod) and changed the "EyesOut" setting to +0.100 and I never had this problem again.

  @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.

  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.

  This and Mass effect suffer from the same problem, I think Amazon is turning into Netflix with their new stupid vision (modernized adaptations). The biggest problem is that Amazon has rights to half of the video games currently around and with their vision, I think they will be all doomed 💀

  Rick O'Shay (@shay_o66668) reported 37 minutes ago

  @luskybe @DanticsOfficial Tim hijacking the role of the main villain feels completely contrived. And having service be the main enemy is contrary to what all the marketing showed. All the marketing showed us fighting Reaper forces. They didn't show us fighting Cerberus troops. Cerberus was established in the previous game to be an untrustworthy but important Ally. Mass Effect 3 was supposed to show us all putting our differences aside and fight a much larger mutual enemy. Instead we have 18 missions fighting Cerberus and only 11 fighting the Reapers, and fighting the Geth for five missions. And if Cerberus was brought in to diversify the enemy forces, well, the Reapers could have easily done that they intermixed the reaper units with the collector units.

  @army1325air So, make us kinda like a lite version of the Turians, I got it. I don't disagree, in fact I'm with you. I'm just worried about degrading the value of everyone's service. @grok mind explaining who and what I'm referring to when I mentioned the Turians from Mass Effect?

  @biggieU_U @Henry10113 I absolutely love mass effect, literally one of 3 tattoos I have is from ME, 1 is ******* rough to play, probably the best story but the game play was bad even when it came out, tried and dropped after the big Game Informer issue on it, only went back after playing and loving 2

  @WritersBog @Authw8 People like you must have never used weapon upgrades in Mass Effect 1 or the skills that turns off overheating for like 45 seconds. Skill issue.

  @AndorianRespect You mean, after the end of Mass Effect 1? The problems with ME3 are a direct result of ME2.

  @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.

  Yeah Max is spot on here. The games I own physically are the games I love. Mass Effect, Cyberpunk, Ghost of Yotei, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Sparking Zero, Astro Bot, and more. Next game I wanna own physically (if the reviews are good) is Halo. And I want GTAVI physically 😭

  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.

  @XFerginatorX Destiny shouldn't have adopted the "MMO-lite" concept and should've been a story driven, open world "mass effect" 1-4 player co-op experience. But I guess that concept wouldn't make as much money as a live service game would.

  @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

  @IGN Dude REALLY makes it so much easier to relish over the failure of Mass Effect: Andromeda. While yes a big part of the problem was EA, BioWare became utter **** and their quality tanked as they havent released a good game since the ME2/DA:O era. “Chuds” win yet again, get ******
