My name is Commander Shepard and this is my favorite Mass Effect community on the citadel.

Rules

  1. Be nice! We're all here for our love of Mass Effect. This is a welcoming community for all stripes, let's just remember there's people on the other side of the screen and act accordingly.
  2. Memes are great - seriously, I need more Mass Effect sh!tposting in my life.
  3. If you're here, you gotta post. Thems the breaks, kid.

Game is an undercooked buggy mess with the goofiest uncanniest valley facial animation ever seen in video gaming at that point -> you're a chud if you don't like this!

Look, there was plently of stupid chuddery going on, but you don't and didn't need to be a chud to laugh at what was basically at that point in time, the most overhyped and buggy broken mess of a AAA game that had ever been released.

A huge reason why AAA gaming is currently imploding is that it spent a decade misreading quite a good deal of backlash to legimate quality control and design failures... as bigotry.

Yes, bigotry was there, but... if you just use that as a shield and bludgeon against all criticisms, you're just getting high on your own farts.

Just go watch the like hour long, no commetary added videos of just totally absurd bugs and problems.

My favourite was a character holding a gun backwards while monologuing in a close up.

Who doesn’t notice that your character is about to remove their own skull?
