Mass defect

This'll never be as good a trainwreck as TORtanic or ME3's shitstorm. It'll just be a gigantic pile of shit.
Anyone who buys this after the ME3 debacle deserves to be robbed and raped.
Post Krogan cocks now.

You're god damn right.

Wasn't her boyfriend director of that clip I think it was some music video?

Not just ME3, DA:I is the last game they made, so it reflects the state their team is at. DA:I was inadequate in every single aspect. From the looks, ME:A will be even worse than that.

To waste a lot of money and then have a plausible excuse on why they went bankrupt.

They're no longer hiding it that they're all a massive pile of collusion and cronyism.

It's going to work. I have friends who think there was nothing wrong with mass effect besides the ending. And look at these scores. The people are praising it because of some dumb actress and enough time of radio silence for morons to forget how bad they are. Their marketing tricks work.
Bioware has obtained an even greater tierof plebs: the game of thrones plebs.

Do be fair TORtanic hasn't stopped sinking yet. You should have seen what they did to the game when they resurfaced it. They sailed it into another iceberg by turning it into a subscription based single player game

There are a number of reasons and they're all equally retarded.

I might rent it for a bit just to see how the gameplay is. The gameplay trailer actually got me interested with biotics being cool again.

It'll be like every other Mass Effect game. It'll sell well, but not enough to make up for the losses the game creates. Because EA have this stupid habit of spending twice the games development budget on trying to sell it, then wondering why it's not making any money.

Fuck off, nobody cares about this shit.

When American Civil War 2 kicks off, the Battle of Hollywood will be the war's Normandy.

Cancer.

BioWare's got the Reddit/Tumblr audience on lockdown.

I hope they waste many more millions on this steaming pile of garbage

When people care more about the romances in a game than the storyline, the audience is clearly as cancerous as the game itself.

Too bad they don't play video games. They'll just watch a let's play from their favorite youtuber.

DA:I already underperformed, and ME4 is just DA:I with guns. Considering how reluctant BioWare has been showcasing raw gameplay for longer than five minutes I imagine they're not very confident about it.

The storyline can be the romance, but BioWare only really wants to make yaoi fanfiction, hence why they waste so much money on "famous" twinks.

I doubt they'll even do that. The majority of tumblrcucks I've had the displeasure to meet just look at bad porn.

I'm expecting another flop. With the rumours flying around, I hope that Bioware is torn apart when this flops. There's claims that EA are preparing to merge them with some larger development group of EA as a whole.

Romance is okay as a sideplot, but Bioware games push them in your face, and even punish you for rejecting some characters, which is bullshit.

Maxis and a bunch of other hollow husks and having them make procedurally generated Forstbite trash.

You can make the whole plot about the romance, the problem with BioWare is that they are tumblr and tumblr's idea of romance is Twilight and fujoshi bait.

Also, for a romance plot to work you need to have the audience care for the waifu, and seeing how BioWare makes the most repulsive female characters in vidya that's a problem.

(holy fuck)
Fuck I miss Sim City 2000.

They will never make another SimEarth.

I can't wait these big-budget games that are more advertised than developed to die out for good. That includes witcher 3

Are you ready to mingle with sophisticated alien gentlemen?
Who am I kidding, Bioware couldn't write 'sophisticated' right even with a spellchecker, let alone produce it.

Been playing Endless Space 2 lately. Funny how it feels like a better ME sequel than the ME sequels. The only thing Andromeda seems to have over it is dateable xenos.

...

How the fuck would she even know? Why would anyone even entertain the idea she knows? She's probably not played a video game outside of phone shit. What the absolute fuck, why do people fall for this shit?

Spore was supposed to surpass it. Then look what happened.

They still think media and media icons hold sway over the idiot populace. Like that worked for Hillary.

...

Weren't the voice faggots on strike or something?

I think that was only a certain union of actors which only included like maybe a dozen or so people who actually do video game related shit.

Where is this boypucci from?

But those 2 communities are not known for actually buying fucking games - especially Tumblr.

Unlike Holla Forums who always buy games, right?

Trump did more in his first 2 weeks than any other modern president did in his entire term.

I pay for games from developers and indie artists who aren't fags and also actually make good games. Developers who insist on cancer like online-only, microtransactions, DLC, SJW agenda, etc. can eat a dick

LOL

Not really.

Holla Forums has more buyfags than you think. I know this is a personal anecdote, but I have 540 GOG games and 1614 games on my Steam account. The actual buyfags here are enthusiasts that buy a lot of shit instead of casuals who buy 3 titles / year, so we more than compensate the pirate-only crowd.

Either way, I wasn't thinking about Holla Forums (we are a tiny community at the end of the day), but about the hardcore gaming community at large, which encompasses a lot more than just Holla Forums.

When have C list actors ever performed well in a game?
The best voice performances are from Z list TV and Theatre nobodies. No one else dares ham it up as much as it needs.

Not an argument.

To be fair caring about anything besides the gameplay is cancer.

Can confirm. Most just won't admit to being buyfags because it triggers the NEET's.

Jesus Christ, it's that GoT bitch? Here goes another batch of top tier genes down the drain. Sterilize the blacks, race war now >>>Holla Forums

Now that I think about it, what games have the best hammed up voice performances besides Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver?

Garret in old Thiefs is a top tier VA, other than that can't really recall

Drakengard, Nier, MGR, Red Alert

WHAT DOES THE SCOUTER SAY ABOUT HIS POWER LEVEL

Deus Ex

Halo ODST?

True. I'd rather want the studios to hire these people, they don't act like divas. I'm not sure if he falls under the "Z list" banner but Brian Bloom, the guy who did the mocap and the voice of the main character in the latest CoD (I think he even co-wrote the script) is one of those actors you see in small roles on TV and movies countless times and he does a lot of voice acting.

Good thing it isn't my genes getting dragged through the mud.

This is not even a contest. Warhams wins it all.

The original Dawn of War and its expansions.

...

I can't unsee Shrek anymore.

Fuck you Holla Forums.

How does a species, which subsists by being attractive to all other species, create something so obnoxiously ugly? That's like having an ugly elf. They are fey creatures. They are magical. There's no reason for an ugly elf to exist, Bioware.

what's the matter with you user?

this is the new beauty faggots and you make sure you know it

Most people were swayed simply by the fact that he wouldn't go to war, would not continue Obama's disaster policies, would not accept waves of human trash refugees, would work things out with other countries because he has nothing to hide so badly that he needs a war as a distraction, etc etc.

If he were up against a better candiate (and not Bernie because he was actually WORSE), he would have lost and would have been considered a joke candidate.

But he was up against Hillary. Hell, while we're at it, he was up against neo-conservatives who do the bidding of the other side.

It was a perfect situation for Trump to win. And it's all because of you and your cronies, you chucklefucks. It's all because of you. Think on that. Or don't. Your idols will be imprisoned for their sins against humanity soon.

Whoever created that "realistic asymmetrical face deformation" feature really needs to be fired.

holy shit it's the same face

Case in point: FFXII had a great dub, voiced by theatre actors nobody ever heard of.

Reminder that Asari brain-fuck you into perceiving them as having features based on what is most attractive to you.

This is Bioware's hamfisted subtle way of telling you that this is what you're actually attracted to, that it's ok to admit this, and that the media's artificial beauty standards are entirely fabricated, unhealthy, and should be abandoned.

They're trying to redpill you, user. You should be thanking them.

Precisely this reason. I'm surprised it doesn't piss more people off.

I went to high school and was friends with a guy who made horror films in his spare time, to the point he started an indie company consisting of himself and whichever of his friends had free time after class. He looks like every hipster you've ever seen (works as a barista, too), but he put more effort into everything he did than these chucklefucks did for their VA casting. Doesn't surprise me at all to see nobody VAs outdoing the established bourgeoisie.

This is quite possibly the worst looking selection of party characters I've ever seen in any WRPG.

Not surprised though, Dragon Age 2 and Inquisitions parties were almost as bad, and only really had Varric keeping them above that par.

that thing looks like an Antz character.

>2 OF THE 6 POSSIBLE PARTY MEMBERS ARE HUMANS

Niggers aren't human.

...

It's because they're trying to make the aliens look more human, so they're more fuckable to Biowares core audience.

'Vetra' looks like a human with white facepaint and a helmet made to make her look more Turian, 'Peebee' (what the fuck is with that name, Jesus Christ) is less blue and more pink than most Asari, who were already the token "practically human alien" race, Jaal looks like a variation of the Zora, aka slightly more monstrous mermaids.

The only one distictly alien looking, and probably the only one you can't have a dumb romance side-quest with, is Drack, who unfortunately suffers from his own problem of looking like a generic NPC Krogan, nothing distinct about him unlike the scarred as hell Wrex or the pristine looking Grunt.

...

More fuckable to the Bioware audience.

These are the same people that thought it'd be gross to have a dwarf romance option in Dragon Age because Dwarves are too close to resembling children, because shortness is a trait exclusive to toddlers apparently,

Original DoW. Just hearing those voices in game gets blood pumping with RIGHTEOUS FURY AGAINST THE ENEMIES OF THE IMPERIUM!

I miss Liara.

Wow… I don't want to bring ANY of them with me. Think it's actually a first where there is isn't a squadmate I like.

Did you just make this up? I'm having a hard time believing this. I could understand them not wanting to fuck manlets because their pathetic, but they do not look like children at all.

Of course Garrus is kissing a female Shepard. Typical.

Aliens in Mass Effect have always looked pretty boring and human-like
The only exception being the Hanar and Elcor, who never seem to move more than five feet at a time and aren't ever seen as NPCs moving around in combat (Bioware used the same skeleton for all the other species and couldn't be arsed to create any new animations).
Watch embed related if you want a look behind the scenes of just how retarded and self-contradictory Bioware is with their design.

fuckin pussies, tuning down a chance to get with a fine dwarf lass

Absolutely disgusting.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised by that, but I am.

What does swoon mean ?
I'm out of touch when it comes to reddit stuff.

Okay, I get it, really I do. Bioware doesn't want it's party members to look like walking supermodels when they're supposed to be hardened space explorers. Fine, whatever.

But there's 'normal' looking, and then there's functionally fucking disgusting. Cora is actually difficult for me to look at for extended periods of time. No real surprise, because she's obviously the white straight male love interest, so she has to be as repulsive as possible. Vetra looks very not-Turian, her face is too flat.

Peebee That name is so fucking stupid Jesus Christ Looks like a 4/10, which is dumb considering she's an Asari, who are supposed to be beautiful, especially since there's a very real possibility that they psychically alter your perception of them, but whatever.

Liam is the blandest blackest man I've ever seen. Just looking at him I can already tell he will have nothing of interest to add to any situation present at any point in the game.

Drack looks old for some reason. Could be neat I guess, but he's going to pale in comparison to my husbando Wrex. Jaal is just a budget Twi'lek, but beefier. Kind of pathetic that there's only one member of an alien race we haven't seen before on our team, but whatever.

Also

ME2 didn't do a whole lot well, but the cast was very impressive. Being a big dumb open world game, you think they'd be able to squeeze in at least two/three more party members. But whatever.

So, just like Inquisition, we've got a really shitty party of ugly people to accompany us on our 'grand' adventure. Great. Sadly, this doesn't look anywhere near as funny, though. The Inquisition threads were a true sight to behold, this, man, I can't even work up enough energy to laugh at it.

Andromeda is quite possibly the most nothing I've felt about a popular release in quite some time. At least most AAA trash that comes out can work me up enough to shitpost about, or something. With MEA It's like I have to take a herculean amount of effort and time out of my day to even give this much of a shit.

And people are genuinely excited for this fucking dogshit

I give up, I was hoping this'd tank and send Bioware with it, but it's actually looking to be a moderate success from the Reddit and Tumblr hype.

Is EQ Next even a thing still?

Mate, I…

Is this nigga for real?

Sounds sorta like sociopathy to me tbh

Buyfag here - can confirm as well. I don't waste my money on shit.

well, that's how dwarves roll

don't know

...

I don't think completely throwing story out the window is valid.

It's called the English language, faggot. Learn it.

...

me too user. i miss her awkwardness, her soft voice, and her blue tits

The romances and story were all that was left after EA decided to turn it into a basic TPS. And aside from Zaeed, the characters from ME1 were the only ones worth keeping interest in. Now that I look back, Garrus, Tali, and Wrex were probably the main reason I kept playing the games.

...

Personally I enjoyed Mordin from the ME2 cast. He had his quirks, and I think he was one of the few members of the crew who didn't have daddy issues.

Plus talking to someone who was directly responsible for the Genophage was quite neat.

it's a shame he was meme'd so hard over his retarded pirates of penzance shit that he immediately became overdone and pushed too hard

You know how lazy they are with animations when you realize they always carry all their weapons on their backs in every game because they can't be arsed to make different draw and sheath animations for the different types. Even worse with the long handled two handed swords they have to make because they use the axe and hammer animations.

At least he got a nice redemption arc, if you played as a paragon.

Yes it's pathetic how many corners they cut, and they're all so painfully visible it's a goddamn miracle the game passed QA.

QA is racist/sexist/homophobic/transphobic, check your privilege shitlord!

What a waste of good genes.

...

Not all people but David Gaider, former lead writer.

Is there a single thing about this game that isn't complete shit?

The gameplay's shaping up to be merely mediocre at best.

...

It's honest about how shitty it's gonna be, I guess. No Ubisofting of the pre-release material.

You know that shit is impossible, maybe human-type aliens, but not all

As disgusting as this is did you guys honestly expect better form someone who works for Bioware?

Good point.

This is a retarded mentality that belongs exclusively to faggots trying to virtue signal as ""nerds"". That gameplay is the most important part of a game doesn't make every other factor meaningless. Video games are, aside from tabletop games, the only medium where you can have choice and consequence and a world to explore (and while tabletop games are much better at the role playing aspect due to almost no limits beyond the players' imagination, video games have a number of unique advantages as well). Do you think Planescape: Torment would be considered a good game based only on the combat and walking around that can at best be described as bare bones? It wouldn't, but it is because it's one of the best games out there when it comes to dialogue and role playing.

It's also retarded to pretend that factors aside from the gameplay and story don't matter. Let's create two hypothetical games. One has Uncle Dante (or whatever action character you prefer), great music, satisfying animations and sound effects, and an overall good visual style. The other has Donte, shit music, garbage animations with no weight behind them, unsatisfying sound effects, and generally looks boring as hell while also being visually unclear. Both have the same gameplay. In your retarded mind, the games would be equal. And that's not even considering how other aspects affect gameplay, like visual and sound cues.

tl;dr other aspects of a game enhance the gameplay and make the game much better overall. They aren't insignificant.

i dont care, i wanna fuck the asari though

That "redemption arc" doesn't make much sense considering that he was right the entire time. They really wanted to push you into the paragon route, too - picking dialogue options that look like they're asking for more information make Shepard go off on a rant about "how could you do that to muh Krogans they dindu nuffin they good boys" and then even if you stick to your guns and destroy the genophage cure turns out there's another one in ME3 for no reason because Bioware can't write their way out of a wet paper bag.

And that mess was the best part of ME2.

Illuminati foreshadowing?

Let cassuals waste their money, this game is gonna be shit (acording with Bioware's current track record) and hopefully it'll be the final nail in the coffing of both this shit IP and Bioware

still looking forward to porn of the autistic atari

Voice acting was a mistake. Ever notice how the story of games started going downhill once everyone felt obligated to voice every line?

I just want silent protags back.

In your second pic why does the guy playing mass effect 1 have stars in his eyes like he's playing Ace combat 4? Mass effect 1 was an okay game but a much more apt depiction for mass effect 1 would be the guy woth the slight smile. That current pic is giving the first game way too much credit

Oh man, if only there was a well made, down to earth, and successful movie that had a female space explorer protagonist they could use as a standard for attractiveness. Too bad that doesn't exist, so they'll have to use Shrek.

I want to put my weiner in Ridley's bum

how is ripley a standard of attractiveness?

She's human, which is more than I can say for Bioware's abomination.

no shis, shes an asami

>look 14 year old girls
what the fuck

Gayder is projecting onto others how he looked when he was 12.

There was a time when I would've been hyped to hear a name like this on the cast list for a games VA. But then he got cornered.

An adult man says "ewww"
Fucking Gayder

I can't wait to read her paper on how biotic powers are sexists.

what the fuck is that purple thing?

I was thinking more about this

It's based on a rejected concept for Tali.

Good thing ass erect was never good.

Well, there's at least that.

1, 3, and 4, mostly. Every time.

Also

Yes, the story can enhance the game however a bad story doesn't really detract from a game as long as it has solid gameplay.
Putting story ahead of gameplay is putting the cart before the horse lad. A game with bad gameplay will always be shit no matter how top tier the writing is.

Oh boy, we are in for a treat with this one. This is going to be some free spirits X patriarchy conflict, I fucking guarantee it. There had never been a leftist game featuring "resistance" that didn't try to heavily push the narrative. When leftists write about militants in a negative light, they say they're terrorists (or if they try to maintain a pretense of objectivity, "rebels"). But with "resistance", it's literally always a shitfest.

So you never played Deadly Premonition, eh?

They can't do a patriarchy angle with the asari. I anticipate her character will just be angry about asari social conventions, which asari are pretty flexible about anyway. I bet she's Pureblood and someone said something mean to her about that once so she decided to become the Joss-Whedon-fed quirky action girl tumblr-pandering Bioware writers love so much.

Her character's motivation is also just plain dumb and is clearly trying to draw people away from the ME3 fiasco. Only ~10% of the Milky Way is explored due to inactive relays and Council regulations, but she's calling the Milky Way old hat. It's definitely not because ME3's ending prevents any future stories from being told in our galaxy. Definitely not.

...

Since the game is basically Cisquisition in Space, I bet she's a tranny.

But that's the worst of both worlds.

They said that? When you realise that the Milky way has 400 billion stars in it, even 10% sounds extremely far-fetched.

At least they explain that Mass Effect firearms fold and unfold due to their construction and are holstered on magnetic backplates. What I really can't stand is that none of the characters have places to carry their things on their armor. They won't have magazine pouches because ammo blocks, but they're still going to need to carry more than just their firearms. It makes all the characters look like they just stepped off a catwalk with their sleek, super-pristine outfits.

The galaxy map is already extremely reductive, so you shouldn't be surprised the scale is off relative to Bioware's imagination

...

Say something nice to natalie dormer!

They actually say it's 2%.

when did this dwarf women have beards meme start? I know I didn't hear about it until at least 2002 when Peter Jackson inserted it into Two Towers (as a joke?) and then faggots started pretending it was Tolkien Gospel.

this faggot clearly wants to write a harry bearded gay romance and hates women.

the worst part is Cora (Maya "felix" Kramer) is the least ugly of all. The whole games aesthetically is unattractive on every level.

It's less than 10% and 2%. It's "less than 1% of the stars have been explored."

Yeah. Regardless, it's abundantly clear that the only reason they're setting the new game in Andromeda is because they fucked up with ME3 and wrote themselves into a corner, and so they couldn't set any events after ME3 within the milky way.

A more interesting approach would've been to it turned out that there were two entirely separate "tracts" of mass relays within the galaxy, with neither set of relays connecting to one another. So all this time, the citadel races think they're big shots in the galaxy, but there's actually an entire different galaxy-wide empire also living interlaced among them, just in a separate series of systems and mass relays that aren't connected. And then something happens after the reapers are destroyed that causes these two groups to meet or something.

Setting the game in Andromeda is fucking nonsensical and shits all over the established lore of previous games, and renders the plot of ME1 utterly meaningless. Not to mention that, by their own plot of ME3's ending, Andromeda should be nothing but gray goo nanomachines because there are no reapers in andromeda to cull civilizations before they create AIs.

Something like the Omega 4 relay?

Tell me this game will kill Bioware please.

How do people in these companies continue to have jobs.

...

Or they could just reverse engineer the shit reapers used to travel into the galaxy without using the relays, switching to a more ordinary means of space travel. Distance between stars would suddenly become extremely important, as it would determine the time to get to them, and new conflicts would flare as the existing empries try to get the systems closest to their homeworlds, while some of the distant colonies they made are left to fend for themselves, as they're on the other side of the galaxy and it would take way too long to get to them.

Boom, you got yourself a new setting for a space opera with rich background lore because of all the no-longer-used shit from previous games, excellent reason to put the various species into territorial wars, while being able to create practically any situation since you've got a valid reason to put X empire's colony wherever the fuck you want. The story would probably be about rebuilding Earth and then either trying to broker peace and somehow preserve the fragile galactic peace, or fermenting conflict where appropriate for a human supremacist route. Or something else entirely. In any case, it already sounds much more interesting than the shitty reboot they're trying to pull, where they handwave most of the series' lore

You don't understand jew accounting. All that 'ad' budget is going into their own pockets. The money they are losing is being lost to themselves.

are you really that desperate?

That's so they can re-use all the animations, and only have to design one set of weapons

First time through Bloodborne air ran into this guy, had me laughing uncontrollably around the "awooooooo"
Then I fought him again on NG+ and remembered that without the novelty, he is tedious as fuck.

Anyone have that Micolash is Sundowner -theory pic?

OH GEE, IS IT TIME AGAIN TO REMIND EVERYONE?

Webm

I was pretty sure they were just going to reprogram a relay and use it as a giant mass driver/cannon for a hypervelocity one-way trip to another galaxy. I didn't expect them to say FUCK YOU to the lore and original trilogy by doing…this.

I still cry

To be fair, ME3 took a huge shit over ME1's lore anyway. Originally, the very idea of traveling from intergalactic space to the galaxy was impossible. Even for the reapers. The reapers were trapped in dark space and the ONLY way they could invade the galaxy was by having sovereign find a way to open up the citadel relay. In fact, it's established that sovereign has been slowly trying to devise a plan to open up the relay for almost 2000 years before the events of ME1.

…and then ME3 comes along and just blows that all away and says "lol yeah we could've just flwon into the galaxy in a little under 2 years time anyway!" Fucking bullshit.

Not to mention how ME3 also makes ME1 nonsensical in another way: if the Reaper AI starkid thing was chilling out on the citadel the entire time, why do they need the keepers to activate the relay instead of just having the citadel starkid AI do it?

Where have all the Medievils gone ? Where is my ragtag group of shittalking mercenaries from Jagged Alliance ? Where's the over the top silly mashup of western spaghetti and Fist of the North Star like God Hand ?

Maybe I'm just a jaded faggot but it feels like now people think they need to have a grandiose message to pass in their fucking video games. The best games I ever played were the ones that didn't take themselves seriously

Not forgetting that each reaper was completely different looking.

How old are you dude?
Since Tolkien female dwarves with beards has been a joke.
I believe there is conversations related to this at least TWICE in his books.
And if not due to the infrequency of female dwarf characters and Male dwarves obsession with manly dorf beards, it wasn't a leap for many people to speculate or joke that dwarf women had beards.

This they were supposed to be made in the shape of the species that reaper mainly consumed.
Which was somewhat cool each reaper being a testament to a past species.

Then they said fuck that, everything is a squid.

tumblr took over and are in the seats of power and the meda is with them, so they churn out shitty things with a supposed message, forgetting concepts like "fun"

Everything is an agenda.

games like webm related would be unheardof nowadays because "it's too much like a game".

That's nothing compared to finding out that the "truth behind the reapers" is that there were reaper-looking squid aliens and all that bullshit from leviathan. What a total letdown.

I won't only not forgive EA, but I won't forgive any of the ignorant ASSHOLES who parroted this shit.

...

Yeah and if I remember correctly it ends with "pls leave us alone"

I BEAR THE SINS FOR THOSE WHO FOLLOW SO THAT THEY MAY BE SPARED THIS FATE

but faggots are gonna be faggots

...

...

Now, I know we've joked about this before, but I really do think that Bioware intentionally makes their females in their games as ugly as possible while making the men slightly less ugly. Is this Bioware's way of giving the middle finger to those nasty gabbbergoopers who have committed the crime of wanting attractive women in their video games? Who the hell looks at any of these female characters and says "Yes. That's what our audience will want to fuck in-game."? Imagine if Bioware went the Overwatch route and started designing obvious waifu-bait. I can imagine a good amount of people on this very site would start defending them.

When I first saw this thread I thought those quotes were ironic shitposts to take the piss out of bioware's mentality since I couldn't be bothered to finish watching that shitty video. but holy fuck she actually said that

All that would happen would be a desire for the porn because anyone with a brain would still not be getting any EA game.

Halo 4 had some scary designs for the flood-spartans that were used in the Flood game mode. They had those weird screams and noises.

Not gonna lie, I would definitely be more interested in the game if the waifus were actually attractive. But even if they made them physically attractive, Bioware's writers can't write a good waifu character anymore anyway.

They'd still make their personalities as unappealing as possible. Not that I imagine BioWare is actually capable of making a product that appeals to the white, male, heterosexual demographic.

shriveled is the word you want
35 is autism central already for having kids

Yeah I remember them sumbitches.

I do like the idea of an alien "trying to fit in with the humans" and failing, but not from a social standpoint, but a physical standpoint.

...

...

For a shooter? Sure. For an RPG? Would drop it like a rock.

no. Sony sold the rights or the studio or something to some Russian firm and they shut it down within a month.

>35 years old

T-that can't be fucking right.

SOMEBODY

I fucking hate you Holla Forums, go back to your paganism and leave us christians alone

Tone it down a bit, you're making it too obvious

Reminder that the ME4 director is a west hating poo in the loo commie who willbe gassed along with his EA overlords when the day of the rope finally arrives

Fuck off.

I enjoyed so much mocking a friend of mine who was a hardcore ME fanboy when they 3rd came out
It feels good to have good enough taste to recognize a shit game from the very first screenshot of the very first game…
Although considering the pedigree of this piece of shit franchize, i didn't even need that to realize this was gonna be shit

We already know that and we don't a need Eye-Liner-No-Eyebrows-Fist video. Go away.

Didn't he literally say something like "there is no ending A, B and C"?

Do you mean the 2nd pic in this post?

say what you will about him, when he hits the bullseye he hits it dead center
also i'm a massive faggot who doesn't know how to webm, please teach me sempay

No, that's just a forum mod. I'm talking about Casey Hudson. I thought I remember him saying that.

Found it. Just look at this blatant liar.

archive.is/MN8VV

...

Good to see Abobo working again.

that doesn't work because in the theoretical game Hitler was the known enemy at the start but the star child comes out of nowhere. that made up game actually makes more sense.

That's the worst part of it. The ending is ridiculous in and of itself, but it's made all the worse because there's absolutely no build-up to it. Neither the trilogy nor ME3 itself builds up to this shit at all. It all just comes out of nowhere and starkid gives you a quick rundown of concepts and themes that had absolutely nothing to do with the rest of the series, and then tells you to choose your ending.

It'd be different if the games built up this idea that organics time and time again keep making AIs that turn against them and fuck everything up. But they didn't, because it was never actually a major theme of the games, and the Geth were just an easily explainable mook enemy and that's it. It's clear that the ending was just created post-hoc and Mac the Hack just quickly thought up something and bolted it onto the end of the game in the most half-assed way possible.

It'd be like you're the allies in WW2 and you finally reach Hitler's bunker, but inside you find the Dalai Lama who actually tells you that the war is all because of the conflicts between buddhists and muslims in burma.

It ain't hip to fuck that, goddamn that name is fucking atrocious

Writers and producers who couldn't cut it in the movie industry think that their skills apply to video games, because their massive egos say so.
When you have to explain to a bunch of old wrinkly shareholders why your video game is worth their investment, it's easier to sell it if you market the product like a profound book or movie. That way you can get a $500 million budget and get rich regardless of if the product is good or not.

The key is to have a small team like Playtonic. You may not be able to make that gigantic MMORPG or simulate hair on a million heads in real time but what you won't get in graphics you can get in gameplay. The fact that games are still being made for the 3DS proves pure gameplay has a place in the industry.

the one that's new just reminds me of this

They're still deep in the uncanny valley. Until game developers can surpass the "moving corpse" appearance of human characters, there's little sense in making them hot.

I don't get it, fam. Look at Shep from ME1. This is a game that came out in 2007 on hardware from 2005. And somehow it looks leagues better than the main character of the latest next-gen ME game made in 2017. It baffles the mind.

The idea is not to move towards perfection, the idea is to stylize.

Jap devs don't even try to move towards photorealism and they do just fine in making characters hot.

It's because they didn't use a shader that made every single character look like they swim in grease 24/7

Let's be honest. All of Bioware's games are trash. Even the older ME's.

Oh, and they fired pretty much everyone who worked on ME1, that also is a factor.

ME1 was an actual video games and I enjoyed it quite a bit for the armor porn and RPG elements.

Needing to go on a quest and find a hidden planet to get advanced classes was cool as hell.
The game had some deep flaws however.

bad example

Born in 1982. Welcome to the creeping sensation of getting older user.

didnt javik say that multiple species eventually took the name prothean during that cycle

you mean the character added after the fact designed solely to cover their asses? yes.

Seems like someone is more penis-obsessed than Ragerazewhatever

That's also one of the reasons for turians and krogans also having big torsos.

...

...

Look at what they did to femshep in ME3. The 3D version doesn't look like the artwork. Same goes for FemRyder, it's like they oversized the lower part of her head (jaw, mouth, etc) and of course once animated it looks horrible.

Check out the two screenshots from tumblr (the main Bioware fanbase)

Nowhere in Tolkien is their references to dwarfs having beards. It is only millennial hipsters who promote this misinformation.

It depends on the picture but there are a few images where she looks hot. But my god has she gotten fat and ugly over the years. see

never change neo/v/

Akira Toriyama is still not very good creating cute girls.

...

Yes really.

I can't believe you would be so misogynistic and racist, user. Are you telling me you prefer the looks of an American MALE over the natural beauty of Coradyke?

I don't think anyone here is desperate enough to confuse ME1 for a great RPG (the cRPGs and jRPGs of the 90s mostly outclass it, for instance). However, ME1 did have a non-zero number of good qualities, and when a man sees a series run into the ground this sharply, it's only a matter of time before he pulls a Charleton Heston and starts screaming DAMN YOU on a beach somewhere.

The same thing happened with Halo, since it now has microtransactions. The older Halo games were fine for what they were, even if they were held back by being controller-only, but seeing even that little bit of goodness ripped apart into shreds is enough to kindle an emotional reaction in anyone, even if the quality of the original work was dubious at best.

That's definitely a part of it, but then again, look at Daddy Ryder. He doesn't look bad, apparent from the sweaty lighting.

But the ryder kids? They look like BR monkeys

tolkiengateway.net/wiki/Dwarf-women#cite_note-0

I feel guilty for liking her tits so much, but at the same time find it really arousing how she thinks she's so progressive and empowered but she still so obviously craves sexual attention.

uh, user

Go back to cuckchan you kike.

What nigger? The men in this shit are estrogenbait pure and simple.
Look at this maybe he's Jason Borne with it , maybe it's Maybline looking fuck.
The compare it to the shit show of the female characters.

Dungeons and Dragons.

I have a dick, user. The fantasy is breaking her, not submitting to her.

...

indeed i feel so dirty for buying DA:I on day one like a good little boy ready to serve MR DSK on a pedo rape party ….

i really though it would be a DA:O with dynamic gameplay, but even in term of gameplay it was shit, no finish move, mage is basically:
use a spell => do the basic attak loop until your mana recharge => throw another spell => use the basic attak loop again ….

I'm sorry but your taste is shit

true, assari could be tentacular monster mindcontroling you to show you an apearance that most pleases you for all we know.
that s why , again:
THE GOD EMPEROR IS RIGHT

kill it with fire

well.. in this case: "the reapers were right"

maybe thats the 'genetic defect' the devs mentioned, her mind control is broke and asari are actually pig disgusting.

AND THEN I SAW HER FACE

But Reapers were somewhere between Tau and Necrons.
From what I heard back when ME1 was only there and from a friend. I kinda got bored after I realized all races life on giant space station that no one have idea how it works and there is no way it has nothing to do with Reapers.

>make female characters ugly so hamplanet biodrones don't feel threatened by their physical superiors
>make female characters ugly so hamplanet biodrones can self-insert
>make female characters ugly to stick it to the whiteheterocispatriachy

>make male characters handsome studs so hamplanet biodrones can write yaoi fanfiction and draw gay art
>make male characters handsome studs so hamplanet biodrones can self-insert being ravished by them

I'm s till trying to understand something.

The Reapers were pretty much willing to tear asunder time and space to get ALL THE HUMANS.

Then suddenly, here's a new game that's like "well, here's some humans the reapers missed"

And even then, they explained that the reapers were like.. Everywhere and ready.

Wouldn't they already have drones and shit on all the inhabitable planets already?

How does a race that killed the race that planned for everything, manage to slip up enough for a bunch of humans to escape to a place that apparently is out of the reach of Crucible?

Even then… Wouldn't the whole point of ME3 cause extreme conflict with all the other areas of the universe that were out of the range of the RED/BLU/GREEN beams of plot convience?

No one one to fuck ogres, you sick fuck.

But really, how the fuck did Bioware fucked up, while Dreamworks did it better more than a decade ago.

Doesn't matter anyway. If the reapers were only active in the milky way, the whole rest of the universe should be overrun by anorganics.

It's all bullshit.

She looks nothing like that now, mate. She has met the fate of all Marxist women: self-destruction

The only answer is that they do this on purpose. This isn't just laziness. They are actually, purposely crafting hideous women.

...

Wrong pic. Here we go

To be fair she was a believable whore in The Tudors.

did play 1 (sadly) only 2 (aka when it started to becoming more of an action game than an rpg)
and the 3rd made me facepalm almost to death.
because until them i didn t knew the citadel was exotech, and the relay i though it was prothean …

then everything made sens: reaper where right to wipe out races so idiotic that they would use xeno tech and feel safe about it.
instead of study them and create their own.
in the end it was just an intelligence test: if you are intelligent enout to not blindly use exo tech that mean you may be intelligent enouth to not get wiped out by your creation.

also no matter how powerfull is the strongest reaper he would never be as badass as a simple wraithlord.

in term of style maybe but in term of firepower they are nowhere near. They are in fact weak as fuck.
but hey, overall ME's firepower is quite low for SF standards, so i guess it s fair

The original Dow was so fucking amazing.

I hope her head is cut off by a follower of the religion of peace.

okay, that's it - I'm playing fucking DoW RIGHT NOW

The only thing Mass Effect had going for it, if it ever went against the 40K universe was the Unlimited Ammo Guns…Which…For some reason don't exist anymore.

I'm still salty about that shit.
They had to imply that the militaries of all the universe would agree to the switch to Thermal Clips. Would have made more sense if the Batarians and those white skinned parasite niggers still were using them or if you could find some Krogan Warmaster who laughed at the idea of getting rid of his infinite ammo gun.
That would have added some depth to the ME storyline.. But nah, we're stuck with the impossible bullshit.

Anyway.

For some reason, I just realized there will never be a Warhammer/Star Trek crossover.
I mean, it would be a one sided slaughter, but the reaction of locals? That would be worth brainstorming.

here is one

...

They'd get shot out of the sky before they could exist warp properly. Earth is the most heavily fortified planet in the galaxy.

They'd race each other to build a pyre to burn the heretics upon once they discover they have xenos onboard.

Her face looks hideous when she smiles and she has pancake tits.

She's another case of promoting the "ugly is the new beautiful" propaganda.

Fuck you say?

Hitler was right

I wouldnt go as far as calling her ugly though, something inbetween maybe.

Spoil that shit

For her face maybe, but nigga that body is straight dog shit.

And that face all depends on angles, lighting and make-up.

Based on this video, we can aver that ogres have tiny penises. There's very little branch there to obscure his dick, and it doesn't hang down below said branch.

Shrek wouldn't tear your asshole, more likely, you'd ask if it was in. Copypasta disproved~

This, the best looking girl in GoT is Khaleesi and that's only because she has zero competition.

who cares about unlimited amo if they are so weak ?
it s like saying : "i have unlimited water on my water pistol ."

He's a grower.

...

He's also fat, which is another reason he has a small penis. That's actual science.

holy shit someone at bioware fucked up

Canonically they're all mini two-stage mass-driver railguns, but in-game they're just treated like conventional firearms anyway

I wonder if she can suck like a vacuum.

The idea isn't that she's the most attractive woman in existence, but she fits in the setting and she isn't ugly. She's a standard that Bioware could have used for a space exploring woman, not a standard of beauty for all women everywhere.

That's how you got your circumcision? Fucking a vacuum cleaner.

Shit son, you're one of the cool kids now.

Slowpoke was here an hour ago and told me it passed you on the way here.

...

She at least looks like a real human bean, instead of some greased-up uncanny valley bullshit.

go home gamer girl

This isn't a chatroom, faggot.
It doesn't matter how old a post is.

That said, he should still kill himself.

I think we're on Holla Forums.

You have to go back.

Do I need to tell you to get out or did you figure it out as soon as you posted that?

You realize that wiki link actually corroborates what I just said. maybe you ought to read it.

Look at all the rotemonkeys piling in, pretending they belong.

She's also Queen Fat. The best looking woman in the whole series was that red haired prostitute.

NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER

read the external link at the bottom.

...

Nigger you really don't fit in yet. please lurk more.

Did you come here with the Holla Forumstards or shit?

Here is your last (you)

Cuckchan lingo.

Fuck, I better post some hipster-approved reaction images instead.

Better than me, I lost mine in a blender on accident. Got all cut up by it. At least some girls ate my semen with their milkshakes I guess.

...

Are you trying to copy meatgrinder user's story because you want to become a meme too, faggot?

...

doesn't mean the women are not clean shaven. More over it doesn't mean the women have full-blown beards like men. They might just be like the Amish.
Heretical text

I think they might be fake tits, because they didn't away look so perfect and in more recent pictures she is flat fat an manly.

She's not that ugly, I mean she's not Maisiemodo.

KYS

Really? I thought it was a meat grinder (pic)

rumor has it she reverted back to being a rabid sjw feminist

Mate, in LotR Aragorn points out to Gimli that the number one reason why people are confused enough to think that all dwarves are dudes is because female dwarves have beards just as the male dwarves do.

thoses curves

Good job setting the bar for ugly so low. Maise is not even human, she's a goblin. But seriously, all the women in GoT are ugly as sin.

It's like addicts with their drugs.

Do we have picture proof? And if so does a brave user have the dick ready to instill the patriarchy in her once again?

I have no idea who that is. Its comforting knowing im not the only one who's been through something like this.

Must be seasonal, like a gardener.

Rumor has it you're an idiot, I don't post any citations or articles or proof either, but because rumor said it, it must be true.

That was not in the book. That was added by Peter Jackson you colossal faggot. Tolkien was an Monarchist and a Traditionalist. Even if he put that shit in his writing somewhere it was most likely a off color joke. Most importantly the Menials who try and use this shit to promote "Gender" politics are cancer.

They don't use tolkien for their gender politics. They use Harry Potter. Even though the regressives closer resemble the ministry of magic under Umbridge and what's his face than they do Hogwarts, but they still think that Harry Potter would be on their side, trying to kill and harm people over differences of opinion. And sadly enough, cheered on by the same cunt (Rowling) who created the character.

Mass Effect should have ended with the Reapers winning.

You're right about that. It seems I got mixed up by some script mention. There's still mention of the identical appearances of dwarves in Appendix A of the LotR trilogy though, and The War of the Jewels declares it much more directly that women are bearded and never shave it off.

No one's disputing that. I remember an user posted some retarded tumblr comic on a girl dwarf shaving her beard (and tumblr gender identity + sexuality crud) sometime ago, with a whole "fuck tradition" thing going on. It was an abomination. Path of Exile comic had that dumb theme also, and they get surprised why it isn't selling. It's also how PoE turned Kaom from a badass savage king into some doofus misogynist badguy. But PoE's writing is shit anyway.

They do. They use damn near everything. SJWs have a tendency to need to insert themselves and their politics in damn near anything they can find then demand it's a safe space now so everyone else should play by their rules or fuck off.

The reaper threat should've effectively ended with ME1, because it's established that the only way for them to get to the galaxy is through the citadel relay. After sovereign was defeated, you cut off their one and only way of entering the galaxy. Although ME2's plot still makes sense, because it was all about building a new reaper who would presumably attempt to manually override the citadel relay just like what Sovereign originally tried.

But then ME3 comes along and has them fly to the galaxy anyway, completely invalidating all the lore and story of ME1. The idea of directly defeating a race of all powerful lovecraftian space machines is retarded. It should've been enough that we effectively prevented them from reaching us, and so they're no longer an issue.

I've literally never heard this rumor, and unlike the post you're responding to, there's no evidence that it's true.

Trust me, if she reverted back to being SJW, these fuckers are whores for attention, you'd have plenty of proof.

Seeing as you don't the go-to idea is that you're spinning bullshit because you don't like the idea that the people you're fighting against have the ability to turn away from SJWism because that makes them human.

Pro-tip, everyone's human.

I know what you're talking about…It's never getting released m8get over it :'^)

Can't stand this woman, she's incredibly ugly imo.

rachni too
