It's only 3 years until Mass Effect 3 will be considered classic :negative:
Nah, ME3 will always be remembered for that terrible ending. The only thing that changed is that it will no longer be considered the game that killed Mass Effect, since that's ME:A now.

Sadly, the never-ending trend of decline dictates that, in fact, in a few years ME3 will be viewed maybe not as classic by itself but certainly 'not as bad as we thought' and 'good for what it is'.

See Oblivion and Fallout 3 for other examples.

GAYS STOP HARRASING POOR SJW BIOWARE! They are people too, well kinda, probably... hopefully?
BioWare responds to Mass Effect: Andromeda animation harassment

By Joe Donnelly 6 hours ago

"Attacking individuals, regardless of their involvement in the project, is never acceptable."






Despite racking up some impressive review scores, Mass Effect: Andromeda has come under fire for its lacklustre animations.
Due to launch to all tomorrow in the States and Thursday in Europe, BioWare has since told us these issues won't be addressed via a day one patch, however further patches are already in the works. The developer has now also responded to misdirected harassment levied at a female EA employee.

Speaking on Twitter, BioWare addressed feedback and player criticism, however drew the line at harassment, saying that "attacking individuals, regardless of their involvement in the project, is never acceptable." According to the developer, the employee in question was misidentified as a lead member of the Andromeda team.

Mass Effect: Andromeda is due March 21 in North America and March 23 in Europe. Head in this direction for our review, over here for our early impressions, and this-a-way to discover why James hates its planet scanning system.

The guy who wrote that aught to be ashamed, the gaming press is supposed to inform the gaming customers, not act like an in house advertisement publication for developers, I know that hasn't been the case for years now, but they might as well just stop pretending it's so blatent. This is not an article, it is transparently EA marketing damage control, that guy is a whore at best. At worst, if they guy didn't get anything for writing that from EA then he is a pathetic fanboy cuck who has no business writing for any publication which reviews products.

Just look at his first line...

Germany's biggest gaming magazine Gamestar gave it an 85 and a Gold Award for "Recommended by the editors". You could see this coming when they released some videos during the last few days which were designed to carefully push back against the torrent of criticism ("It's better than DAI" - which also got > 80).
Gamestar :retarded:

I remember how they tried to defend the ME3 ending back in 2012.

it could be worse.
the editor in chief of the leading (and only) italian videogaming magazine said, literally, word by word, "after learning of the indoctrination theory those who don't appreciate me3's ending don't understand shit and deserve all the call of dutys and medal of honors of this world".
such a huge amount of retardness concentrated into such a small thing created a black hole of idiocy.

Not sure where Bioware can go from here. Will the next ME feature sleeping with tentacle beasts because you like their personality? Actually hope this franchise survives now, it's turned into the perfect lulz-dispenser to brighten our jaded days.

Never say never:

And even it holds the pistols correctly.

Has any sjw game dealt with transseuxality in a meaningful way btw? All I've seen is 1)Meet random NPC 2)Xie tells you xe's trans in the second sentence 3)Keep thinking that trannies are shallow people who are only defined by their sexual deviances (which seems plausible :M). Good job, SJW writers.
Since transexuality is a personal thing, I don't think there's a way to approach it in a video game without the character sounding like an attention whore ("look at me, I'm trans") or "educating" the player with an arrogant tone.

Why would gays and trannies be brought on a colonization mission?

Its already theoretically possible for gays to have biological children together. One stemcell has just to be transformed into an egg:
http://time.com/3748019/same-sex-couples-biological-children/
There's even dialog in male homosexual romance that they want to have children.

Well, according to the Time article, scientists already made mices with two same sex parents. So its definetly possible . Even weirder, its possible to have a child with yourself...

If they did in a meaningful way they wouldn't be sjw. But answering your question, one of the characters in Technobabylon is a trans... something, transgenetic, I guess. He had once been a man but rewrote his whole genetic code (or something like that iirc) to become a woman.

It's crazy it follows the suit in when a game uses Denuvo, it has strong problems.

Even normal players would pirate buggy mess without Denuvo.

multiplayer are just retarded ignorants.

the quote belongs to stefano silvestri, "the games machine". one of them during gamersgate rose to popularity because of his bragging "i wrote a lot of reviews without even installing the game". he wasn't named but we all knew who he was.
