  @irockithere @RenfailSoL “Immersion.” I had no problem feeling immersed in KOTOR, Mass Effect, or any ES title. It’s a game after all. Looking at screen, sitting a room. There’s a limit. No loading screen doesn’t make you feel like a citizen of the game. Like 0.5% more.

  @TheMadGamerHere @getrichordietri @DiscussingFilm It's not an insurmountable problem by any metric. But you do this wrong, and aim it purely at the gaming fans and you're left with a show that will come off like a poor man's star trek. Mass effect is so much more than that. We WANT all audiences to understand this great world.

  @spiral_archtct @Pirat_Nation The writing was really bad, but we can't ignore the technical issues. They were absolutely terrible at launch, like No Man's Sky or Cyberpunk. The only difference is that Mass Effect Andromeda never got its player base back, probably because of the writing.

  @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!

  @WeAreMassEffect I was hoping for more Andromeda content or at least a new DLC bridging the Andromeda galaxy to Mass Effect 5. One of Andromedas big problems was dialogue. They tried to make it sound like a 'CW' teen show. Mass Effect is supposed to be gritty and dark not childish teen angst.

  @SierraStriker Very much so. With mods you can pretty much "finish" Mass Effect 3 and fill all the gaps left by the production issues.

  @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-

  @Cloveruu98 @WeAreMassEffect i believe that it was. i played it post all the patches, i really didnt experience all the broken-ness people did on release. despite the game being mostly bug free, the mass effect formula just wasnt properly adapted to an open world formula, game got boring kinda fast.

  @DanticsOfficial The Mass Effect trilogy was BioWares Mangum Opus. They tried chasing that high again with their sequel game Andromeda but that fell flat. And then they tried chasing the live service model with Anthem and look at how that turned out. And finally they tried chasing the modern audience with Dragon Age: The Veilgaurd…

  @MadamSavvy A major issue with adapting Mass Effect to a non-game medium is that it's narrative was largely build around player choice. In ME1 Shepard doesn't have a single line of dialogue that isn't prompted by the player.

  I feel like **** cuz I kept forgetting to take my meds this weekend and all I wanna do is play mass effect but I modded it to high heaven and now it’s broken and I don’t wanna fix iiiiit

  @TigoODonnell Yeah, like this is a baffling statement bc I do not think there is a way to make mass effect more like television/cinema than it already is. Unless the problem is that today's media ecosystem moves too fast for something like a Star Trek or BSG to thrive

  Since #MassEffect is trending, is anything being undertaken to fix steam achievements and EA play achievements not working for MELE 2 & 3, @EAHelp ? I've tried multiple fixes to get it to work and have had no luck.

  @Waefent "butchering for DEI" as if mass effect itself isn't diverse and inclusive already, this is not the problem in the slightest

  Riddle me this Batman. What is the endgame of Skyrim?. What is the endgame of elden ring? What is the end game of Fallout? What is the end game of Mass effect? What is the end game to every single story driven RPG out there? This isn't a live service game.

  @mask_bastard The original mass effect trilogy, I was left emotionally broken by the end of it

  @RazorFist I've always hated that Mass Effect 2 decided to change the genre from rpg to shooter with rpg elements. I also really hate that they addressed the problems with ME1's inventory system by just stripping it out completely.

  @ByanBenyolds @MythicMgames I completely understand that I have games in my catalogue that I have not touched yet again like all the other posts I responded to the reason I thought this individual was lying was strictly because most of us know who are massive mass effect fans since it’s inception how contentious Andromeda was. The game nearly single-handedly destroyed the mass effect franchise the amount of vitreal in hate over a decade. It’s hard for me to believe that someone that is a fan of the series has no idea about and it’s just trying to rage bait. Again, the game was so terrible that they canceled DLC That’s all, again I have no issue with the hustle

  @kalaelizabeth "chuds" made it a punching bag because the game was not up to standard for a mass effect game. people didnt like it because they have high praise for mass effect, until devs, etc realize this they will never discover that it is their problem to fix, not ours

  @TheLocus343 the first picture looks like generic sci-fi place. I could imagine it being the inside walls of the Citadel from mass effect. The second one looks like andromeda's ruin interiors. The issue with H4 is it doesn't have an identity. Like its OST, it could be from anything.

  @ABasicAlt @kalaelizabeth Because if they crash and burn with a new IP, the Mass Effect title still has value to sell off. I am well aware they are working on the Next Mass Effect game, and I really hope that it won't be awful... but hope in one hand....

  Kevin (@themoralskeptic) reported 51 minutes ago

  The last thing we heard is this was to be set after the trilogy. My suspicion is it’s intended as a lead-in to the next game. The problem is executives who want to use a well-loved IP to make money, but don’t understand why it’s well-loved. This is literally the problem Amazon had with Wheel of Time. If they disregard the existing fandom to that extent with Mass Effect, the show will suffer the same fate, but worse: it’s likely to have a knock-on effect of dooming BioWare in the eyes of EA’s new owners. The next Mass Effect would have to be an Expedition 33-level runaway success to insulate the studio from this degree of fallout.

  @RenfailSoL Except Kotor came out over 20 years ago. Mass effect took measures to hide/reduce loading screens like with elevators. Loading screens become a problem when the player feels like they are seeing too many too frequently. Compare cyberpunk to starfield for a better comparison.
