  My issue with modern RPG Games is they seem to focus to much on romance and hook up options You need to do to progress the Game, Like in Mass effect 2 You had the tantrum sequence of Jack against Miranda, instead of a neutral option you needed to pick a side, that's idiotic

  @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

  @pinkkomimi My problem is more I try to play it like Mass Effect and then remember I can't use skills and I have no party members to cover me LOL. I'm getting better at it though thanks to the world quests.

  @KTiereny I think 5-10 years ago this would have been amazing especially with Yakuza and Persona games back then. The problem is now if you had another entrant the cost to lockdown content would be extortionate. 100 million to get a 3rd party exclusive like original mass effect.

  @Geo_AW @masseffect 2 Boss in the Collector Base. problem is this generation of purple haired freaks can't create a unique boss fight. Atleast the freaks from 15-30 year ago could make good games. Now it is "see what others did and steal their creative IP

  @MassEffectHYPE From what I've learned the new mass effect is suppossed to take place after the events of ME3 problem is the game is taking to long and most of the hype it could have is dwindling fast , hell most think its a hoax and not really in development

  @MD_Chaos4 By the way, in your opinion, what was the biggest problem with Mass Effect of how did badly execute its lore?

  @WeezSays @LonoSG Not true for all of them. Steam’s own offline-mode FAQ even says games that use an external launcher often won’t start. You lose multiplayer, sure. But a lot of single-player titles still won’t launch if EA App, Ubisoft Connect, Rockstar, or CDPR’s REDlauncher can’t phone home. I’ve had that exact problem with Mass Effect Legendary Edition (EA) and Witcher 3 after the next-gen launcher got added. “Steam games play offline” is true for some Steam games. It’s not a blanket rule when the publisher bolted a second storefront onto the install.

  @donutzski Like for real... When mass effect Andromeda was broken it llooked better than this

  @Pies_of_Lee Veilguard is just a continuation of the same writing issues that plagued mass effect Andromeda but the same reactionaries were too busy bitching about a trans character in that game too

  @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.

  @DanticsOfficial I think this is fine in shorter games but I have to be honest, if I was locked into a playstyle in cyberpunk at hour 50 and I knew I was only halfway through the ******* game and I was hating it, that'd be a problem. I'm saying this is a huge Mass Effect fan.

  @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.
