Peebee's scene wasn't any much better though. Pitch black eyeballs and a schizophrenic orgasm hallucination, yeah that's my idea of a good night alright.

"Real talk" has been a thing for decades, slang-wise. Maybe Addison is a fan of kicking it old school.

I object to Addison using a normal-rear end simile, something normal speakers do in everyday conversation, and following it up with "sorry, just feelin really poetic right now". Then she does it again in the same conversation.

She never gets better, and never redeems herself. All of her dialogue is loving terrible and her personal quest, with insanely selfish pregnant friend, is bullshit.

That's how asari do it. They just didn't bother to make a cutscene for Keri so she says "wanna go back to my place?" and fade to black

That or the incongruous writing. Why is stern administrator-type Addison starting a sentence with "real talk" without a hint of different intonation. maybe it's just me

Maybe she's not naturally a stern administrator type and that's her real personality coming through. A big theme of the game seems to be people being thrust into positions they're totally unsuited for

Elaaden should have been a lava world. Eos should have been Elaaden (and rainy after you activate the vault).

What about a sewer planet? Sewer levels are mandatory in video games, have a whole sewer planet and outdo everything.

Could be wrong but I don't think I've ever heard an English person say "real talk." Feels like a different person from the one who calls Tann a "colonial wad."

I mean "colonial wad" isnt really restricted to british english. Particularly in the far future where dialects have probably merged.

That said yeah i cant wait to hear her say that because it doesn't fit her personality.

PC playing on 1440p Ultra, I always have fraps running.
I didn't bother fiddling with the settings after the patch, as I was close to the end. But fraps showed between 30 and 58 fps sometimes, which can look ok on a G-Sync monitor but some dialogue scenes very suddenly dropped from 70+ to 30 something and it was very noticeable despite G-Sync. Frame rates were very inconsistent near the end and it very much seemed related to the patch, because I had not experienced this before.

DancingShade posted:

I thought performance was much improved. I can now have more unrelated resource draining crap in the background while I have ME:A in fullscreen.
I've played this with fraps activated for the entire run, and I can definitely say that performance is way down now. It's not terrible or unplayable as I get fps that are acceptable for the most part but there are instances where it is really noticeable even when you're not looking at the frame counter.
