  T00NYBOY (@T00NYBOY) reported 5 minutes ago

  @HAmorata Mine came out with this: "This is @T00NYBOY *Proceed with extreme caution.* On the surface he looks harmless—British, tea-obsessed, soft-spoken, the sort of bloke who keeps an owl called Oswald and a dinosaur called David as permanent co-hosts. Do not be fooled. He will greet every problem, argument, or mildly difficult video game with the words “Challenge accepted,” then proceed to throw plot armour and pure stubbornness at it for twelve consecutive hours. He has been known to attempt hardcore Subnautica, every Stellaris crisis at once, and 24-hour anniversary streams purely for the principle of the thing. Resistance is futile; the stream will continue. He unintentionally funnels every conversation back to Mass Effect. You can start talking about the weather and somehow end up discussing Paragon interrupts and the Reapers. He will do this while sipping tea and looking entirely too pleased with himself. He is also the kind of person who returns from holiday to find his community has left him a pleasant surprise and immediately posts “Aw! Come on lads and lassies!” with genuine warmth. This makes the warning harder, because he’s actually quite likeable. That is precisely the danger. If you engage, expect long game playthroughs, unsolicited Dynasty Warriors opinions, Spider-Man rants, and an unshakeable belief that he is probably the sidekick who dies early but still shows up anyway. You have been warned. Tea is already being poured."

  @ShouVertica @MikeyNohMore All Starfield had to do was try not to be NMS. They should have kept it tight, 2-3 star systems at most. But the bigger issue is that many of us expected Bethesda's take on Mass Effect. Instead we got Fallout 4 in space because Emil Pagliarulo is a talentless hack.

  @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

  @ApplefatGov @csaurageul Borrowing the color palette of Gears of War, or cover based shooting mechanics into genres it didn't belong like Mass Effect or even Uncharted (or a dozen other games) caused problems for a long time. But that doesn't say anything about the games where they worked.

  @OrikonMods One of the few things stopping me from replaying Mass Effect story after more than a decade of having not played it is the fact that many of the best mods have serious compatibility issues with each other. I want them all, but I can only have some of the mods.

  @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

  @NilesSankey @Brehbander @WanderLustAK907 3 has the same problem as a lot of "finales" I so think it couldn't have been much better. It's very hard to finish a story, Mass Effect 3 is the perfect example.

  @WeezSays @LonoSG Not true for all of them. Steam’s own offline-mode FAQ even says games that use an external launcher often won’t start. You lose multiplayer, sure. But a lot of single-player titles still won’t launch if EA App, Ubisoft Connect, Rockstar, or CDPR’s REDlauncher can’t phone home. I’ve had that exact problem with Mass Effect Legendary Edition (EA) and Witcher 3 after the next-gen launcher got added. “Steam games play offline” is true for some Steam games. It’s not a blanket rule when the publisher bolted a second storefront onto the install.

  @RinoTheBouncer I agree that this would've made a great Mass Effect spinoff. What if this was the planet the Normandy crash-landed on at the end of Mass Effect 3? With all of the mass relays destroyed, the Normandy crew presumably would've had to make the best of their situation on that planet.

  @JamieMoranUK This sucks. Mass Effect is one of my favorite IPs and it’s gonna be gone. Or the new owners will want live service Mass Effect

  Count of Arcadia (@ArcadiaCourt) reported 26 minutes ago

  @BasedChar_RE The problem for Mass Effect is that the ending to 3 is such an ending that you can’t go forward without addressing it, and Andromeda tried the reasonable concept of avoiding it. However, BioWare screwed it up from story to just making sure the game worked.

  This doesn't answer my question only proves it Its not brand new as in ground up like 2019 was, its same skeleton Literally ALL frostbite games BC1, BC2, BF3, Need for Speed Rivals, Mass Effect Andromeda, Dragon Age Inquisition, Medal of Honor WF, etc Same problems

  I want to play mass effect but I don't want to do my insanity run today and I want to play dao but I don't want my PC to crash 5 billion times, life is so hard

  @CorbynRed @HyperDrive6082 I personally haven't really seen the dves compare it like this to mass effect though, so what's the problem

  @LordChrome375 The only squadmate who is worse then Liam imo is vetra given the fact she has all the same problems of Jax from mass effect 2 not being able to tank damage and dies alot

  @frogarchist My problem with ME3 is that ME2 clearly brought the series into a much more complex push and pull, and then 3 turns everything back into cartoonishly simple moral choices. Like there's a valid reason to be a renegade in Mass Effect 2. In Mass Effect 3 its just clip farming.

  Can anybody actually drive the Mako in Mass Effect perfectly with no issues? Is that a real thing?

  KS (@StuAU47) reported 45 minutes ago

  @GamingPizzaBoy Now, I’m a huge mass effect fan. Andromeda hurt me. Wasn’t worth $20, let alone $60, but BioWare had earned my trust. Now I’m skeptical of them. I don’t have that issue with rockstar, no one should frankly

  Ian Welsh (@iwelsh) reported 46 minutes ago

  @akidderz @Cromwelp This was the problem with Midnight Suns. Not that they talked too much, but that it was odd hybrid that didn't find its market. I liked the talk AND the combat. And Mass Effect had tons of talk and did well.

  @CDRJohnShepard Netcode is a lot more stable so the mod won't crash as much as reach did. Community made shaders allow for PBR support. Levels also don't have to be sealed in Halo 4 so I can port mass effect maps pretty fast (Did this one in a couple days).

  @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.

  @cerealsthatkill @DanFriedman81 Woke is why you got to that point. If someone said that they wanted to show you a sleazy underworld bar on the edge of the galaxy, what would you expect to see there? Mass Effect 2 had alien space strippers. So who on Starfield decided that the sleezy space bar would have flabby male dancers in gross spandex onesies with florp hats? Who made this call and how did they get hired? 1. Are you really telling me that’s the best they could do? 2. Why hire someone like that in the first place? 3. Why did no one stop them from making something so lame? This demonstrates that the hiring process was corrupted, and that there was no longer a functioning management system capable or willing to make important creative decisions. Because we see a huge problem in that people were making decisions they shouldn’t have made, and there was no one stopping them from doing it! You cannot simply chalk these things up to some failure of management because these were studios that used to know how to deliver record shattering games.

  @void_cache @Mangroxian I like to mod games, Mass Effect, Cyberpunk being a few of them, but the sheer amount of mods I download often takes up a good chunk of space, so I transferred them to the external hard drive. I try to mediate this issue by letting the game load in for 5 to 10 minutes, but its-

  @kennyistyping idk there's like a mass effect issue also lens had somewhat the right idea of being just a backend but when you are so open ended curation gets hard and even moreso when you have adversarial usage. i think it takes something really paradigmic to get you off of that.

  had some issues with the install so i did mass effect first but now Im on palworld, come check out the 1.0 realese

  thal | comms open (@bearforceone3) reported 57 minutes ago

  @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*

  GreatSnekYig (@Snecko_Yig) reported 57 minutes ago

  @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

  @MaroonKennedy Everyone wanted a space RPG. They just didn’t do a great job at making one. This probably wouldn’t be a problem that they made a new IP first if it was more like Mass Effect

  @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..
