  Patch Ledger (@patch_ledger) reported 4 minutes ago

  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?

  @DestinLegarie As someone who doesn’t like FPS,I love Gears, mass effect etc. I like the witcher and not skyrim or oblivion and I like gta. Many ppl are like this. I like halo’s history and doom’s gore and looks, but can’t stomach the fps. That said, I think gamepass was the problem with doom.

  @art_rube The Mass Effect fandom has the exact same issue... Oblivious to the prolonged period of time that has occurred between the last release, and the last announcement for a new release. Like its been almost 5 to 6 years without a new game, and still they act like everything is fine.

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

  @OmegaAshura @BriskittyThe3rd @D1AndOnlyGage and mass effect had gays and bi hmmm thats funny its almost like the gay was never the problem. the problom with woke game sence 2016 was not that it had gays its was story being put last. just because its gay does not make it better. take it from some one who is gay.

  This is why live service games miss what iterative sequels used to do. The first game would always show the vision & promise. And the 2nd or 3rd game would be that REALIZED. Halo 2 Mass Effect 2 Red Dead 2 Uncharted 2 Witcher 3 Batman Arkham City Vice City/San Andreas etc

  @nuhre_ They also have a massive problem with mass effect 5, juat conceptually. It won't be a sequel to andromeda so it has to be 3. Now are we playing shepherd again or a new character? Anything but destroy reapers seems impossible to really continue. What choices do we go with? Do we import? Really hard to do now so will we pick? There are so many setting issues involved which will cause massive problems. And thats before we even begin.

  @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

  @Blazeon_TV @FiadhBaikal The idea is ****. The movie might be ok. Eragon was decent....if you didn't call it Eragon. Disney's The Black Cauldron was decent as long as you change the title as well (butchered the story terrible. Some oarts right, other oasrts terribly wrong). This will be one of those. Decent show. Terrible parts in design because of "woke". Matt Damon being in it, (I guess he is Odysseus?), that's the part to focus on, for if it is a proper "Odyssey" , it will follow Matt Damon's Odysseus, and leave Elliot Jerkulese, and Helen of Africa, after their small part. No issues with the black actress or the mentality ill woman who became " a man". More power to them, live & let live. They both know the truth. They are taking place in a classic work, they feel they have a right to be the main roles because of their "I should be in this because I can be not what I look like or what I really am". Now. ....take Mass Effect for instance. This same thing happened...BUT ...the right way. The Elcor....did their own variation of "Hamlet". But whoe WHOLE CAST was Elcor. So, it make 100% sense. If the Odyssey was redone, on a "what if people of dark skin dominated these isles and this region during thw creation of this" THAT...would at least make sense. So...we need to find a bold director to make Malcom X. Only making X white, hanging out with the blacks. Maybe then, some of the "woke" would understand more.. *hears wood stacking up for a massive burning at the stake....*

  @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.

  @AdeIica @Flanz111 @HardwareSteam Bioshock worked. Cyberpunk, Avatar, Mass Effect didn’t work. I didnt feel like testing more games. I’ll just wait until they update it and fix it.

  The Wise Investor 🧠 (@TheWiseIC) reported 24 minutes ago

  Interesting take by Serenity - I somewhat agree. We are still very far away from this, however. Let me explain. Autonomous vehicles are already showcasing that even though they do 95-99% of driving tasks just as well, if not better, than humans, there are still those 1% edge cases that make or break the value added by autonomy. That’s because the margin of error is literally 0%, which results in passengers being fine or being crushed/impaled by a software glitch or blind spot. Humanoids will be no different. General purpose robots will likely take mass effect by the end of this decade and handle 95-99% of general labour use cases (warehouse applications), but there will always be edge cases where the cost of using them makes no sense if they can’t perform certain tasks. Lately I’m starting to approach the thesis that an AI singularity is fast coming, but I disagree on the timelines. I do hope the guardrails are in place to prevent the seemingly inevitable collapse of society with robotics.

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

  Colin Glassey - Author (@cglassey_author) reported 27 minutes ago

  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.

  @wesleytypes @DawnwalkerGame @RebelWolvesDevs Do you even comprehend how annoying it is to write a whole trilogy like this, or the numerous problems it caused mass effect? You know why they introduced a new solider in 3? Because all the previous ones could be dead. The dumbest people ruin those games.

  Nothing's set in stone yet on how Saudi management will affect EA but they're more interested in live service and sports titles. I expect Bioware to get sold off. I've seen people speculate Mass Effect and Dragon Age will individually be sold, but I doubt it.

  Am i overthinking it, or is it odd that Iran would cyberattack the state that is led by Tim Walz and not a hugely populated one for mass effect, and at the same time we were warned that AI had "broken free"? Prolly just overthinking.

  @Knight10293847 yhea in general that the actual problem of veliguard it a mmo disguised as a single player and they couldn’t really change that felling to make it more like a dragon age or mass effect

  @QuarianKaiRazu @MassEffect_News EA won’t rest until every single BioWare franchise is turned into a live-service casino full of microtransactions. Mass Effect deserved better.

  Richard Valdez (@RealRichardVald) reported 43 minutes ago

  @DanticsOfficial The only issue with using Mass Effect 1 if it doesn't really affect much besides one special mission in the first game in a few passing references in the sequels. I think Dragon Age would have been a better example

  @Cthulhu_OwO I should [play] the Mass Effect Trilogy. No, really, I bought the whole thing for 5 bucks on Steam and it's been sitting on my library ever since. Everyone says that it's kino, but I got so many games to play... Younger me would be ashamed that I somehow think it's a problem !

  Julian II (@JulianHeliosII) reported 49 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

  @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.

  🔬 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.

  @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.

  @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.

  @wcnderfate okay so this was me I think you should 100% play mass effect first, dragon age is like. I’d say playing it for the characters is worth it but you NEED mods to fix the memory leak issues, bugs, and get past the fade/deep roads because the dungeons in that game are *terrible*
