  No official word that EA’s new owners will sell BioWare — just strong LBO logic. $55B deal closed this week with ~$20B debt. Standard playbook: cut costs + sell non-core assets. BioWare fits (Veilguard miss, Anthem flop, now <100 staff, no reliable cash flow). Analysts flagged it months ago; ex-producer Mark Darrah noted selling studios/IP can knock real money off the debt. Waiting for the Amazon Mass Effect show (filming late 2026 → 2027-28 release) could revalue the IP like Fallout did. Smarter long-term move on paper. But debt has a clock (~$1B+/yr interest). Private owners usually prioritize quick deleveraging over waiting 18-30 months for an unproven TV boost. BioWare isn’t a cash engine like Sports or live service. If it does go on the block, the most logical buyers are Microsoft (Game Pass + RPG appetite) or Sony (single-player narrative strength). Amazon is a dark-horse option thanks to the TV series. Disney is a longer shot. Short-term incentives lean sell. Long-term value leans hold. We’ll see which wins.

  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.

  An analyst told CNBC EA might have to sell IP to service its buyout debt. Four days later, BioWare showed up in exactly that sentence. > Aug 2: CNBC quotes an analyst on the $55B EA buyout - "I don't know how EA is going to service this debt without... studio closures, and possibly IP sell-off" > the buyout added $18-20B in new debt to the balance sheet, confirmed across multiple reports this week > Aug 6: EA is reportedly looking to sell BioWare and other IPs specifically to pay that debt down > EA has not confirmed or denied it - the studio that made Mass Effect and Dragon Age is now a line item in a debt-service plan, not a press release Four days between "here is what selling IP would look like" and BioWare's name landing in that exact sentence is not a leak. It is a timeline. What is next on that list?

  @TwoGhostPixels No one changed Dragon Age or Mass Effect, dumbass. Stop making problems up in your head to get mad at.

  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.

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

  Mass effect a little low, but other than that I see no issues

  @ShittyHaloTakes Basically it negates issues which is why they like adding it because over a decade ago we just could call out games for **** like Mass Effect 3 leaving content on the disc then selling it back to you outrage. Now you add an they/them Asari and the discussion is pulled away from..

  @Malonik1 @bioware @masseffect I think part of the problem is the EA acquisition

  @RudeJackalope For me, personally is Mass effect 1. I could never finish it. I dont think its terrible, i just struggled with the controls and they felt clunky as all hell for me which is a skill issue on my end but i never got far into it before dropping it all together

  @LordChrome375 Think my issue with andromeda as a whole is that he it played it way to safe and hand holdy compared to mass effect trilogy and 1

  @TheHiddenOneAC Mabey its because I've played yakuza and mass effect, but is it that much of an issue seeing reused animations?

  Julian II (@JulianHeliosII) reported 31 minutes ago

  @Knights_Path Thinking some more, when the player asks a question you have a problem to solve: The player idle while asking a question looks blank Mass Effect solved it through a close up shot here and there, obscuring the body so you can't see Shepherd's hands Baldur's Gate had transition anims between lines from pose w/ anim to pose w/ anim, which kept the silent protagonist of the dialogue engaging You should choose one of these, or a mix of both, to keep the character from feeling plastic. The speaker need not have this because they are generally receiving queries and questions from the speaker, but stance changes are crucial for the target speaker

  @CorbynRed So, I take a number of issue here. For one, this probably isn't a person who is high up in the organization and is just someone on the ground or a manager. I can't think of why a PIF head would comment on Mark Darrah's videos. For two, he is really glazing EA for being well managed when this management has lead to BioWare being reduced severely and other studios as well. For three, the fact that he said that after Mass Effect that BioWare will be deployed as creative support is worrying. Like okay. I guess they won't be fired but that is not really good for the creatives of BioWare to just be support. Though I find it odd he calls Andromeda "a touch too creative for a lot of fans," I wonder if he means that positively or negatively. And finally this guy could literally just be lying and making this up. Even if he wasn't I find it hard to believe that a PIF person in a high position would be commenting on a Mark Darrah video. Or any video for that matter.

  @GameSpot Guys, who gives a **** about remaster, remake that entire ****, fix the bugs, bring us a new trilogy like Resident Evil, you see how Black Flag Resynced is doing, Ocarina of Time is shaking people. GOOD GAMES deserves GOOD REMAKES, not ****** remasters. Mass Effect is EXCEPTION

  I know mass effect 3 has a glitch where shepard and steve's romantic and regular dialogue gets mixed up sometimes but everytime it happens i still get jumpscared a little😭

  @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 😭😭😭

  @d_linkski got another similar laptop a few years later, tried again, same issue. every personal computer i've owned has been similar- strong but not specifically made for gaming, with integrated cards that games hate. my 1st game on steam was mass effect and i have 1 hour played over 8 pc

  @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

  @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.

  @MoralityCode @IGN Mass Effect 1 is an actual RPG with an actual plot. Mass Effect 2 is a third person shooter where the plot is to solve everyone's daddy issues

  @MikeDKirby @kalaelizabeth BioWare is a good legacy name and the success of the Mass Effect Legendary Edition is proof that the IPs still have gas in the tank. The issue is that the BioWare of old no longer exists, key talent was forced out by bad management under EA and only a shell remains.

  @MountKrushmore @DAKKADAKKA1 Yeah remember what the hell happened to mass effect Andromeda what it launch with technical issues and glitches and anthem was rushed to launch filled with crying Devlopers over the stress they put in over BioWare magic that doesn't exist

  @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.

  In RPGs when your LI is getting attacked in combat do you also drop everything to protect them? On Palaven's moon you have to send a squadmate up a radio tower or something to fix it so I stood in front of the ladder, out of cover, so husks wouldn't get at Liara. #MassEffect

  @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 issue, though; I was especially into mods, but they took up a lot of space. The mods I downloaded for Mass Effect took up nearly 20 GB in total. Now, since my new system doesn’t have an HDD, I can’t download many mods.

  So far my problem with the game is that somehow I still don't feel like I am playing a mass effect game, it just has a totally different feel to it that I find it hard to get used to 😭

  @Captain_Haruno @Spartan_Eden Exactly the issue. Again Mass Effect books weren't required reading. Halo was just money grubbing

  @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.
