Also the quarians are kind of oppressed already so it makes sense that they would be the ones to reach out to help the other 'little guy' races, that's a common dynamic IRL.

On the official website I've seen mentions of "former-Justicars" and Cora being part of an Asari biotic commando unit.

I'm indifferent to them so I'm ok with this. It's not like Spiderman hasn't been rebooted like a million times already so things will work out. ^ I remember putting Imoen in my party and thinking "wow I'm sure there will be loads of cool dialogue now I've saved her from Irenicus" and all I recall is about one line when you get your soul back. Waste of a party member slot.

DancingShade posted:The correct way to soft reboot a franchise. imoen was supposed to die at that point, or have been killed before you get to spellhold. one of the two. hell, in BG1 she was added in as an afterthought using cut-up dialogue. it's why her responses and such are so different to any other party member.

You were never supposed to rescue her and eventually fight and kill her just before Irenicus. Tester feedback made them change it but it was too late to give her any new lines. And I'll take silent over actively annoying like Nalia.

What does generic mean? That you could create him in the character creator as opposed to being the face scan of a model?

That he seems to have a bland and boring personality. I dunno, the voice acting in the loyalty mission we saw felt really matter-of-fact and emotionless. Actually most of the voice acting I've heard seems that way.

imho bland and boring, AKA the "jacob problem", is that in the hilarious chucklefuckfest train that was the Normandy, a guy whose major problem was that he thought his dad was dead and had worked his issues with it already in comparison to the others was basically "nah he's uninteresting" But Jacob's purpose was to inspire the funniest thing ever made from ME2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gGShiM1Exc

At least I saw an option for an Origin Access free trial that sounded like it meant that the other day, but I can't seem to find it now. Also, someone caught that the Andromeda title screen is an Aliens reference:

Also, you can't actually get a trial right now according to their customer service. The timing on that offer expired to coincide with Andromeda's ten hours preview I think.

Well my track record of having no real problems with Origin is at an end because now it won't update files. It was giving me the "waiting for permission" error and now that I seem to be past that it now queues updates forever with no % complete. edit: And now "Repair in Queue" forever. marshmallow creep fucked around with this message at 16:14 on Mar 14, 2017 |
