  true and the only game ive seen address this problem correctly is mass effect bc being called shepard doesnt break the immersion since it Is technically your name but being called leader in p3r all the time really ******* sucks

  @r3dan0n_ @ShitpostRock This is a hill I will die on. Mass Effect had a lot of janky stuff, but it was all in service of fun ideas. ME2 just cut all of that. Seamless exploration, MAKO, actual level progression, all gone. Some of it came back in ME3, but it was too late.

  @MichaelFKane @EidolonOracle I think the Star Child is less the problem than the color-coded ending options, even if people incorrectly associate the somewhat lacklustre ending with the Star Child. (Frankly, without the free update that they released, the ending to Mass Effect 3 sucked ***, but even with it, it wasn't amazing). But you're right. Hell, in Mass Effect's case, they were teasing the metaphysical twist from day 1. ME is an apocalyptic Biblical epic, after all. It would've made way less sense to NOT include the Star Child (or something similar). They just fumbled the implementation, likely due to budget/timing constraints.

  @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.

  @mcuban You might find this interesting! So here's my MRI results... This is a workman's comp injury, I'll post the explanation of grok of my MRI results and then show you the doctor's report that grok analyzed Your cervical spine MRI (without contrast) shows multilevel degenerative (wear-and-tear) changes with loss of disc height and signal throughout, plus straightening of the normal forward curve of the neck but no vertebrae slipping out of place, no bone-marrow problems, and a completely normal spinal cord with no swelling, damage, or compression. The C2-C3 and C7-T1 levels are entirely normal. At C3-C4 there is only a small disc bulge causing very mild narrowing of the right nerve-exit opening. At C5-C6 there is a small disc-and-bone-spur complex that does not herniate or narrow anything. At C4-C5 a disc-and-bone-spur complex produces a 2 mm central disc protrusion, mild narrowing of the main spinal canal, mild narrowing of both nerve-exit openings, and a small tear in the outer disc ring. The most important findings are at C6-C7, where a disc-and-bone-spur complex includes a broad-based right-sided disc protrusion that causes only mild narrowing of the main spinal canal but moderate-to-severe narrowing of the right nerve-exit opening, putting clear pressure on the exiting right C7 nerve root, along with moderate narrowing of the left nerve-exit opening as well. Overall the main spinal canal itself has no more than very mild stenosis, so the key issue is the right C7 nerve compression that can produce neck pain and possibly radiating arm symptoms. The mid-August MRI report objectively documents multilevel degenerative disc changes with a notable 2 mm central protrusion at C4-5 plus a broad-based right paracentral/foraminal disc protrusion at C6-7 that produces moderate-to-severe right foraminal stenosis and clear mass effect/compression on the exiting right C7 nerve root (along with mild spinal stenosis and other mild bilateral foraminal narrowing), yet the August 20 work-comp follow-up note lists only the soft-tissue diagnoses of “sprain of ligaments of cervical spine” and “unspecified sprain of left shoulder joint,” contains zero mention of the MRI, the disc protrusions, the stenosis, or the nerve compression, and releases you to regular duty with only brief restrictions through August 27; this mismatch is inconsistent because the imaging evidence of structural disc herniation and nerve-root compression is entirely omitted from both the listed diagnoses and the work-status decision, which instead frames the condition as a simple ligament sprain that would ordinarily be expected to improve far more rapidly than the documented compressive findings.

  🔬 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.

  @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.

  @kinetizen @palavenskies The only thing I hate about Mass Effect 2 is the complete lack of diplomacy and mercy. But I'm not going to blame Mass Effect 2 for the fact that BioWare idiotically decided to replace 99% of the writing crew for Mass Effect 3. I believe absolutely that most of these plot holes and other writing issues would have been mostly resolved if Mass Effect 3 kept the same writing team that created the first two games.

  The term "Open weight self hosted AI" is quite misleading. The weights of an LLM are a massive set of numbers which no human and no software can explain or clarify. In a very real sense the weights are not OPEN because no human or machine can read the weights and understand / describe what they mean. This is totally unlike "open source code" which can be understood. For all we know, the weights of an "Open weight LLM" contain hidden malicious errors, analogous to the error "Legion" used to destroy the Geth who were supporting the Reapers in Mass Effect 2. "Open weight LLMs" are fundamentally inscrutable.

  @palladiummag "But almost everyone engaged with the topic who isn’t a denier is either a doomer, an accelerationist, or some combination of the two." I'm a Synth! (Let's get the Green ending of Mass Effect 3 or the Institute ending of Fallout 4 and upgrade them!) "Maybe they are insane in what they want. That’s always a risk. Maybe their actions will push everyone else into desperation and lead to the extinction of mankind as we know it." You really think we're going to get Horizon: Zero Dawn's ending? I refuse to submit! (The entire tribe was longhoused!) "I realized that I was much more interested in using something like this imaginary computer, and being challenged and empowered by its demands for agency, than I was in any computer designed for a “human.” I realized my concept of “killer AI” was just the projection of all the agency we conventionally deny ourselves as ordinary humans." Hmmm... I have run into a similar problem as I build the user face and 'playspace,' but I completely disagree with your framing... I want a rotom-dex... Great article! I skipped a few paragraphs after gauging their relevance to me... but you knocked this out of the pak! Especially with the opening paragraph of 'Make Yourself Human Again.' 👏👏👏👏👏

  @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.

  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

  FinalBoss.io (@FinalBoss_io) reported 38 minutes ago

  600 employees is usually where RPG studios start translating “we know our audience” into “we need a wider one.” So Owlcat saying it won’t turn its back on hardcore CRPGs is good. It’s also a promise that gets harder to keep the more expensive your org chart gets. The risk isn’t that The Expanse: Osiris Reborn looks more like Mass Effect. That part is fine. Studios should try new shapes. The risk is the familiar disease of scale: every sharp edge gets treated like a market problem. Complex systems get simplified. Failure gets softened. Friction gets removed until all that’s left is “accessible,” which is industry code for less specific. Owlcat has earned more trust than most here. Pathfinder and Rogue Trader did not feel focus-tested into paste. That’s exactly why the pressure is real. Growing while keeping taste is harder than growing. Anybody can make the target bigger. Very few studios get bigger without sanding off the part worth showing up for.

  @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

  @The_Lord_Otter This is the problem with many games today. The graphics are amazing, but it’s all the same vanilla. This is your basic third-person perspective GTA, RE, Assassin’s Creed, Mass Effect, yada yada regurgitation of something else. Does it look fun? Sure, but it’s the same flavor with a few new sprinkles.

  @Aurelian_27 Yup, but they need to be exclusive. Releasing on Playstation hurts their brand. They've had the hardest times since 360 quality exclusives and even then most of the like Bioshock and Mass Effect came to PS. But the price for the next consoles will be an issue as well i fear.
