EA killed the mass effect franchise, so sheperd and co are not happy with the EA businessman

poptart_fairy posted:

EA get blamed for Mass Effect turning to poo poo, rather than the people who wrote and developed it.

Well really you're both right. EA refused to let Mass Effect stop after three games, and so made a 'new Bioware division' out of one of their other development offices because both of Bioware's were busy making games they actually wanted to make. That new dev office proceeded to drop the ball enormously, but given that before this they mainly made Sims DLC and so had to hire a bunch of new and inexperienced talent my main question is 'what did any of us expect, really'.

Although I would say that people should be more rightly pissed at EA for milking the franchise rather than 'killing' it, because there wasn't going to be a new Mass Effect until they decided Andromeda needed to happen. It's not their fault that we aren't getting any more Mass Effects, it's their fault that we have three good Mass Effect games and one absolute mess.

The best advice I've ever heard about the Mass Effect series was to Alt+F4 out of ME3 right after "You did good, Shepherd" and pat yourself on the back.

Andromeda was one of those games where it would have been an ok game if only it hadn't been hitched to a superior IP. Not remarkable, but at least not worthy of ridicule.

Even as it was, I wish they'd release their plans for where they meant the story to go. I have some kind of brain disease that makes me finish series even when I can tell it's not going anywhere good.

On a mostly unrelated note, maybe it's the rum talking but I'd play the hell out of a krogan dating sim.

Looks like it's based on fan art, not that I know anything about the character, like everything else I post.

Spider-man and Luke Cage villain (though more Spider-man than Luke Cage).

Albino gang boss that was originally just a regular human badass before power creep demanded he get superhuman strength, speed, agility and durability.

EDIT: He's like, if Ron Perlman was twenty years younger and played Mobius the Vampire in 1980's style leather coat and jean getups.

She could probably get around much easier if she used the Morph Ball.
