I'm pretty sure the video said they brought in every species on the nexus or whatever and then you have the four ark ships, each one from one race (which obviously seems to be Turians, Asari, Salarians, Humans), so there really shouldn't be much grounds to worry that Krogan, Quarians or whatever won't show up in the game.

JawKnee posted:Mark Meer would have made a poor femshep I agree Male Shepard sounds much more dumb and naive often, it's both hilarious and endearing. It's better if you take things much less seriously. I laughed out loud at a line in ME3 about the Rachni queen being back and helping the reapers "B-But the queen promised she would go away and stay hidden or be destroyed!"

Blastedhellscape posted:Meer’s voice just doesn’t work for a lot of the Renegade options (somewhere I saw someone describe it as sounding like “The dad from the Brady Bunch trying to sound like a badass”), but if you play ManShep as an amiable boyscout it’s fine. He nails a lot of the sarcastic line too. I played him as a renegade on my first run and later as well. I liked it, though I also found it funny.

I'm weirded out by the protagonist being called Ryder. Keep thinking of Ryder from San Andreas, smoking sherm, being an rear end in a top hat and looking like Eazy-E. Anyway this game kind of looks like crap.

Well, maybe this will make good material for another low effort screenshot LP of a sexy bioware game, like the one on DA2 that got gassed in progress some 5 years ago. Too bad the pictures are gone from that.

Admiral Ray posted:Ah, BioWare is taking the Paradox approach. That explains this. Well.. Paradox games are basically just maps and interface and rather simple event coding with more or less hardcoded underlying coded mechanics, improving upon them is going to be a lot easier than an AAA monstrosity such as this.

katkillad2 posted:I loved DA:I, thought 2 was garbage and Origins was great. Witcher 3 is a great game. You should definitely check that out if you're into well thought out fantasy settings and poo poo. Only thing I don't really like about the Witcher is how every "sorceress" is a super hot 20-something babe that you bang, it's kind of silly and pulpy (though I guess that could be the appeal, I guess it's also quite possible that that's what the Witcher books are fantasy pulp). I also quite liked DA:I for that matter, though the open world elements do become grating if you go full on obsessive "must complete every little sidequest". Of the Mass Effects I would probably say that ME2 scored the best balance between story and gameplay, being good in both. Of the three I had the most fun with ME3's combat, and there were some characters I enjoyed (mostly Javik). ME1, though janky in spots, really sold me on the theme and feel of the world and the effort put into lore and techno babble, felt really sci-fi. The best thing though was the soundtrack, it's kind of incomprehensible to me that they went away from the synth heavy soundtrack for 2 and 3 which had much more orchestral soundtracks (Guess they wanted it to be more "cinematic" and "epic"). It also by far had the best villain. I just never really gave a poo poo about Andromeda, basically just demolishing a great sci-fi setting with ME3 and then setting this new one in a new location in another location was just really uninteresting to me, when what was really interesting about the ME universe was the lived in universe in the background and the different empires and species and such as well as humanity ambitiously gaining more and more power. Came back here when I remembered release was getting close and find some funny faces and gifs. Game looks to be pretty bad, I'd say. Won't have to pay to play it though as my sister is a huge ME fan and preordered it a long time ago and said I could borrow her Origin account, so yay I guess.

You know actually thinking it about it and typing it out I kind of withdraw my criticsm to that. I mean it's kind of sleazy, but really thinking about it as a fantasy detective noire kind of pulp fiction story it makes perfect sense for it to be sleazy.

So my sister bought this game and has run into a bug or something that makes her unable to launch it, it just launches a black window kind of thing thing. She has been looking into fixes for it, and she does not have CorsairUtility installed which some seem to pinpoint as the cause of the bug, and she says she has tried alt+enter to run in window mode and nothing happens (is there another way to set the game to launch in windowed mode?) another fix that has worked for some it seems, she also says that disabling the firewall did nothing. This is supposedly a pretty widespread bug and there appear to be various fixes, though none have worked for her yet, could there be another kind of problem? Is it one of those stupid bugs that has to do with letters in your Windows account name perhaps? Could it have anything to do with having DirectX 12 installed rather than 11 (I don't think this should be a problem, but I dunno). Just seems weird. If anyone has any suggestions or experiences with solving this bug I'd be grateful, especially as I can't really look into the issue first hand as she's 300 miles away from me which limits my ability to personally try things to solve the issue. I suppose I could try to log into her Origin account and see if there's any bugs on my end, but then again I don't know how helpful that would be especially if it turns out it just runs fine on my computer.
