  @Jason Go fix the ending to Mass Effect 3. . .. ..

  @Polygon It's completely disingenuous to paint critics as bigoted right-wingers. people upset have no problem with female protagonists. This claim is demonstrably false. look at Horizon and Tomb Raider. people are just sick and tired of the cultural/social engineering. studios ruin everything. Mass Effect with Andromeda, They ruined the Star wars franchise, Amazon ruined The Lord of the Rings. The Odyssey is making the Greek characters black. No one wants to be preached at (like you did in this article). if you create a compelling world with a female protagonist no one's going to care and everyone will enjoy playing it. just leave the things we love alone.

  I think that they wore their parody of GTA on their sleeve. The issue is that they wanted to start parodying other games which is why 4 felt like they were trying to make fun of crackdown, prototype, mass effect, etc. They bit off more than they could chew

  @HowlingKaya @RespectElves Director doesn't matter as much as the narrative writer. Mass Effect 1 & 2 had the same director but different writer, and it shows. And guess what the big problem post Chris Obsidian games have? Really ****** writing.

  @BobWhencer @wwarrior_1 But what I mean is that the cringe stuff “” was not the problem with this game? The problem was that EA got too much control because they were like hey, you have a limited budget and then they’re like **** you we’re calling you’re the mass effect team. To rewrite everything.

  @XFerginatorX Destiny shouldn't have adopted the "MMO-lite" concept and should've been a story driven, open world "mass effect" 1-4 player co-op experience. But I guess that concept wouldn't make as much money as a live service game would.

  to anyone saying that people who don't like the new god of war because you hate woman and female lead characters in games, or you only like characters that are half naked and 'hot', which i am one of those people who does not like the new god of war i love Cynder the dragon, the second lead in legend of spyro dawn of the dragon, how is she half naked and hot? i love Grace Ashcroft who is not half naked, she is also one of the lead characters, i love Claire Redfield, she is not half naked, also a second lead, Lara Croft, yes she is technically half naked, but i do not find her 'hot', i love female Shepard from Mass Effect, she is not half naked, she is also the main character, unless you choose male Shepard, i love Jill valentine, she is not half naked, she is also the second main character, i don't find any of these characters 'hot', but i still love playing them, because they are interesting characters, i play video games because i want a good story with good characters, if you are going to make your lead a female, make them interesting and not bland that are perfect in every way, just to put bs diversity, none of these characters i mentioned are perfect and bland, they make mistakes and have problems, that is what makes them good just like most male characters are not perfect, Kratos is a literal murderer who is technically a villain, Leon is a rooky cop in re2 and fails a lot through the game, and in re9 he is trying to fix a mistake he believes is his fault, Ethan from re7 and 8, is a regular guy who struggles his entire way through, in 8 he is trying to rescue his daughter, he is not perfect but he pushes through all these characters are good and interesting because they are not bland, they are strong characters but they are not perfect, that is why people love them, and that is why people do not like most modern games with female leads, because it is not about making good games, it is about putting diversity where it should not be

  @Pirat_Nation Of course EA had a problem with it 😒 Y'all remember when EA was responsible for Mass Effect, NFS, and sports games in the early 2000s? Great games there.. not anymore.

  @CraigHarris456 @Silverbolt_1985 @ashestoashleys Cerberus in ME1 and ME2 may as well be two different organizations and that's the problem. I played a paragon Shep, he was not cool with working with Cerberus and they give you so little agency to voice that. Doesn't feel Mass Effect-y

  It's pretty baffling how the Mass Effect team was so scared of mlm relationships. At least there's mods that fix that injustice.

  i know it’s a mass effect thing and quickly the story gets out of control but please let’s not add unnecessary stress to our portion of the fandom. we are on the same side or at least we should be enough senseless discourse in fandom spaces. save it for ACTUAL important issues

  @darkmagas @Pirat_Nation There is no easy way to say this back. Been there, done that, still ended up back on Console as many others I've known over the years have. PC isn't some blissful oasis. Some nice things about it, but its also just chaos on that platform. How many chat clients do I really need? Is it going to be the GPU drivers or a shotty CPU or Bad RAM that takes me out of the experience next? Why is consistency such a problem for PC? Great I have a large catalog of old games, but that doesn't change the fact that I to have a catalog of old console games. I still game on PC now and again. Love my Steamdeck, but I'm looking forward to a portable PS6 more than I am looking forward to the next steamdeck. Valve has done nothing for their achievements and switch to a Microsoft space is not really acceptable to me as I'm looking for Linux gaming, not windows gaming. Epic..... ya no... GoG great in concept, but not in practice. Then there is the 3rd parties that seem to think launchers in launchers was a good idea. Still annoyed that I can't play Mass Effect Legendary Edition without first being connected to the internet. Just let me play my damned game.

  @Mangalawyer I don't care about what emotion they're showing at a moment. I want them to look good or give me the option to have a custom character. Had no issues with FemShep from Mass Effect. No issues with V From Cyberpunk.

  @ZeDoctorBlur Dean takahashi, he also didn't know how to level up his character in mass effect and was terrible at doom eternal, all of which he criticized for his own skill issue

  Michael (@VideoGamingMM) reported 21 minutes ago

  If it’s an RPG with a choice, I’m picking the guy. Mass Effect, Pokemon, Skyrim, Cyberpunk, etc. I’m never picking a girl. It just feels weird saying “this is my character.” But a game like Stellar Blade, Eve isn’t supposed to be me so I have no problem with it.

  @trepidofficial I have been waiting for a video game crash ever since Mass Effect 3 in 2012 I won't lie, I too used to fall for the remakes and remaster trap, but not anymore, I'm done, I'm up till here with this **** I want this industry to burn, and nintendo to go with it, they deserve it

  @Faubaulaus Mass effect 1 is unfortunately the best in the series, not even close. And Mass effect 1 has a lot of problems

  @KeenKolo @masseffect Oh yes, that's one of the issues I was specifically thinking of.

  Mass Effect Andromeda on Insanity is way harder than I expected, never had any trouble with the original trilogy so was expecting the same with this game but damn. Going to try and stick with it though, but if it reaches a boiling point I have no problem going to normal or easy.

  @Ashields899 Yeah, that's been my issue. CDPR gets so close, Larian got so close, but then I'm back playing mass effect or dragon age or kotor for the umpteenth time

  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

  @nuhre_ From what I saw the problem is they have Mass Effect Andromeda level writing, with characters that won't STFU in combat always having a quirky statement.

  Trey👑 (@ThatGuyNamedTre) reported 51 minutes ago

  Yeah Max is spot on here. The games I own physically are the games I love. Mass Effect, Cyberpunk, Ghost of Yotei, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Sparking Zero, Astro Bot, and more. Next game I wanna own physically (if the reviews are good) is Halo. And I want GTAVI physically 😭

  @GreenTextRepost he didn't really solve the service problem, he solve it on an indie scale, but the corporate side still treats customers like absolute ****. I bought mass effect legendary edition for my steam deck, and it bricked itself due to the drm I had to find a "special copy" that worked.
