  @BobWhencer @wwarrior_1 But they love the mass effect in the eyes of EA Mass Effect team can do no wrong, but the dragon age basically is a giant ******* failure to them because there there was a whole article that came out that explained their history of why dragon age games had so many problems

  @LordOfTheKink @Dreamboum @TigoODonnell If anything, ME3 makes ME2 better cause it's just one whole part of a grander tale regardless of how the ending went. On its own merits...Mass Effect 2 has got some problems.

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

  @AHalfNickel Not gonna lie, I hate this series. Everyone in it is a complete and unlikable *******, and Mass Effect 2, didn't do anything to fix it. I bought the whole trilogy at once and I almost played the 3rd game just to watch them all die, but I didn't want to waste the time.

  @_SHAAMUUU_ Probably same problem next Mass effect being direct sequel to ME 3

  @kalaelizabeth I don't really see the problem. A lot of these games are citing inspiration from mass effect and this one is being headed by former bioware employees. It's like complaining that a videogame was called a souls-like when it cites dark souls as a direct inspiration

  @nuhre_ The issue is whether Bioware have any writers capable of the type of story and dialoge that was in Mass Effect 1 through 3 and excluding the woke nonsense. I don't believe they do, but we'll see

  @NebsGoodTakes They got no problem with Fallout show being in the same game universe and appealing to both gamers and non gamers. But Mass Effect....

  @PMaka1991 Compilation of games (like AC: The Ezio Collection, Halo: MCC, Crash, Mass Effect, etc.) also needs separation of lists! 🏆

  @LuisMay23930054 @kalaelizabeth Mass Effect without human-centric story won't work. It's already very generic sci-fi, without humanity's struggle to secure its place it won't feel like Mass Effect. That was one of Andromeda's biggest issues in story and world building

  @RenfailSoL Mass Effect and Kotor were storybased games not sandbox games. Although personally I have no issues with how Starfield handles it and think the hate is overblown

  @BigSillyFunhaha @DAKKADAKKA1 That's actually the problem. Because like with Mass Effect... They did make a 3rd one.

  @Pirat_Nation Mass effect always was a little woke, but these freaks don't believe in half measures. This is going to be starfleet academy all over again, and its crash and turn is gonna be glorious to witness.

  @neetori_ch I had an issue with Mass Effect 3 (PS3 disc) where I couldn't get past a certain area in a mission. It was a tiny scratched area. Toothpaste scrubbing. Apparently it was just ever abrasive enough to buff out the scratch. I was able to finish the game!

  @TheExpanseRPG Your fundamental use of it is the problem and a direct slap in the face of every single artist Gen AI steals from to churn out the content you use it for. I’ll stick to games that actually respect artists. Good luck with your Temu Mass Effect though. 💁🏻

  Why is Ashley Williams so useless in Mass Effect 2? ***** the Collectors are the problem.

  @Battlefield @masseffect Your last update ruined the game can’t even open it anymore on PC fix it

  choosing vanguard instead of infiltrator in #masseffect was a tactical error. Lotta geth

  @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.

  @nuhre_ ME:A would of been better game without being attached to Mass Effect - that is the truth; the game play was fun, but yea the uglification of characters; infamous lip sync issues - and again certain characters written like crap killed it.

  @Authw8 mass effect 1 is still absurd as by then they must have developed room temperature superconductors and the heating issue would be no more

  @JamieMoranUK With how bad tv has been for the last decade I never intended to watch it in the first place and I’m perfectly happy to watch the show crash and burn if they refuse to appeal to Mass Effect fans.

  @nuhre_ The problem with a long running series where "choices matter" is that eventually the game will just buckle under the weight of all the different options. Same thing happened with Mass Effect.

  “Busy workin” is not an update. It’s what studios say when they need players to stay calm while they figure out whether the next thing is actually coherent. Mass Effect doesn’t have a lore problem. BioWare has a trust problem. Silence stops feeling strategic when the last few years went the way they did.

  @atharia_ The Fallout show was good enough that my dad watched it four times straight. The Halo show, for someone who's only played 1, 2, and 3 back when they were released, was decent. Both have problems. I'm still hopeful about Mass Effect being not bad – as a massive fan.

  @GambleMike Is there a fix coming for Mass Effect Legendary now that LEME1 wont load through the trilogy Launcher after the recent windows updates

  J. Y. Song (@Critical_Scribe) reported 47 minutes ago

  People just need to accept when their stuff just isn’t very good at its core. I didn’t find the gameplay to be the issue with Andromeda, though it could have done with better level design. It was the writing, and many people play Mass Effect for the writing. The plot felt boring to go through and lacked the gravitas that the original Mass Effect had. Things happened, but never did I really think they mattered all that much. That is very much due to the party members, who didn’t feel all that distinctive at all from on another or were just so forgettable beyond their shared snark that I just tuned them out after a while. The dialogue choices themselves lacked any weight because most of the time you just said the same thing, but either as a jerk or a nice person. That makes choosing dialogue a chore, not something you really have to think about. The combat was pretty good though, I’ll give it that, though rather than letting us switch to all classes I’d rather they have much more robust class systems with deeper skills and specializations. That creates much more unique scenarios per playthrough rather than just swapping to whatever at any point in the game. Recognize your faults when people point them out. Dismissing those criticizing it at “chuds” is such a cope you just sound pathetic.

  @wojtek_mic @DiscussingFilm Mass effect was always woke but it was written in a way that it wasn't forced on anyone. The woke stuff was natural and never forced that's why no one had a problem with it. Appeal to non gamers means less action and more bullshit nonsense

  @NoahNCopeland I've noticed that high effort/quality mods will generally avoid the word "fix" in the title (even if they arguably *do* fix a glaring flaw, like Mass Effect 3's ending).
