The BioWare and Mass Effect Thread!

This is a great thing to wake up to. By the way, wouldn't that journalist guy be authorized to release the app by EA/Bioware? I can't see EA, for one, allowing people to get away with charging for behind the scenes stuff without their approval and a cut of the money. If that's the case, Priestly's being dishonest by deflecting all the blame. It's not like the fella snuck into Canada and stole all of their SUPER SEKRIT NOTES.

Priestly doesn't understand the concept of copyright and IP. He thinks editing a .bin file is equivalent to pirating, so it isn't surprising that he has no clue what's going on with anything that doesn't involve food.

If he had any idea of what goes on with food, he wouldn't have half of his current size.

He's just made a calculated C&C decision. He likes food more than he likes having a social life.

I tried that, but it just doesn't see the saves. Now worries, I've figured things out.

Thanks brah. Now I won't have to replay through ME1 to see the "consequences". . Anyway, it works like a charm.

The only important thing is - you need to give it administrative rights in Win 7 to make it work.

No need. For the future I advise using the save mod Jaedar linked. Regardless, thanks for advice.

Deleted scene where Liara and Garrus die.

Not particularly lulzy aside from Shepard's hilarious facial expressions., also the comments.

How Mass Effect 3 wil be remembered for years to come

It was for the best.

Absolutely epic.

I know it's taken them a while to catch on but can BSN be considered bros now?

No. They're still the same ignorant bandwagoners, flocking to whatever's shitty and popular.

Another good read, as usual: http://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkai...ans-entitled-gamers-or-responsible-consumers/

If theyw ere responsible cosnumers they would do research before buying the game and not simply pre order it like lemmings. FFS

Customers atr ethe most evil, ghateful, bigoted, retarted peices of fukkin' shits ever. I pffer 100 Hitlers to one customer. Thankyou very much.

P.S. L0L @ funny pics

I came here from the BSN.

I wouldn't say BSNers are bandwagoners either, they aren't afraid to bash or support opinions that are contrary to the mainstream gaming community. They know what they like and that's the kind of game and storytelling that BioWare's weened them on for a number of years.

It's just that even by those relatively low standards, Mass Effect 3's ending is fucking awful. It was objectively hilariously shit.

Basically, this.

Oh well.

Here's some more juicy rage.

And finally a moment of zen:

tHIS IS HIALRIOUS. gETTING VIOLENT OVER A FUKKIN' VIDEO VIDEO. I'd punch that opiec eof shit if I ever emt him! FFS

And that is why we can never be bros with BSN. They met the acclaimed Mass Effect 3 Ending with rage, thinking that it betrayed the 'vision' and 'spirit' of the entire franchise. We met it with chortles of laughter for we knew what spirit and vision Bioware had died a long time ago in the graves of Neverwinter.

No. Why? Because BSN on the whole love the shit ouf of DA1, ME1, in most cases ME2. People review plotholes in ME2 and ME3, whilst at the same time calling ME1 a masterpiece. As far as I'm concerned, if you think DA1 is an amazing game and GOTY material, it's the first game you've ever played. Whilst getting sucked by a hooker. As another hooker sticks her tongue up your ass. And a third one lets you eat her ass. And a fourth one is actually doing all the playing.

Why the smiley? This whole stuff actually makes SO much more sense than the actual endings, not to mention it ties in nicely with higher war readiness leading to a better ending. And picking the "best" ending vs having it be the only one where the mass relays are destroyed does make for an interesting choice. Hell I'd have been pretty satisfied overall if that's how the game ending really had turned out.

Well it did. I mean, you can argue that the vision was bland and that the spirit was derivative, and you'd be right, but the ending is a completely needless shift from the tone of the rest of the series. And THAT is the reason why it's a shitty ending, regardless of any redeeming value (or lack thereof) possessed by what came before it. Well, and the fact it made no sense and was pulled out of Priestley's rather impressive ass, but that's neither here nor there.

I'd suggest that the second game already departed from the tone of the first, taking a dive into grimdark grittiness with a strong emphasis on sacrifices and deaths, rather than the space opera journey of the previous instalment. I'm not exactly sure how the ending is a shift in tone itself. It seemed like the usual pseudo-scientific nonsense to me, taken to greater heights. Mass Effect's pretense at being hard sci-fi was never very stable in the first place.

Nonsensical, yes, forced, yes, but I wouldn't say that the ending breaks away from the vision and spirit of the franchise. Because I don't actually think they had a full-fledged vision for a trilogy in the first place. There's... nothing to betray.

I found the perfect thread for that prosper inspired emote.

Mass Effect 3's ending is RACIST!

FUCKING LOL!

Absolutely not. They're merely disgruntled Talimancers upset because ME3 ends with a picture stolen from some poor Korean's Deviant Art account and not with Shepherd and Tali riding on Wrex's shoulders off into the sunset. They're still the same clowns that only care about making the robots romancable for the frog aliens. They're just mad because Bioware didn't give them exactly what they wanted, for once. Anyone that didn't jump off the Bioware boat after Dragon Age 2 (at the latest) is beyond salvation.
