I dont understand it either. But its delusional to think it will end anytime soon when we have shit like this happening after such a major release/flop. To be clear, it doesnt even look like it registered on the Richter scale for their stock.

The only thing that I find concerning is that there appeared to be someone trying to rectify the trannies insertion of his agenda before the game released. Remember the tranny hiding all his pronouns and having to go on tape saying that there wont be much of it in the game? Pepperidge Farm remembers. So what happened with that? Was that all for show? Or did he really do that, and what we have is just a scaled down version of the agenda ... as bad as it is?

EA stock keeps going up likely because everyone assumes M$FT will acquire them any day now.

This goes to what @rhinohelix and I were talking about. Where is the money coming from to fund the losses? That is what needs to be addressed. Something very nefarious is at play.

Because the same team that developed this garbage is now assigned to ME5 to do the same. And DAV will lose over a hundred million dollars.

The pockets run deep. It’s time to identify who holds the pockets.

They probably picked up ME5 when it was thought failguard would print money. It's not unheard of to have projections wildly off and have to restructure the corporate structure.

I'd assume when the chips finally fall we will see a large shakeup.

That said mass effect sucks.

ME 1 was the only good one imo. 2 had a bit of polish in a few areas, but was just way worse from a story perspective. Also the problem with cosmic mystery horror storyline is once you start explaining everything, it becomes boring. The first one had a huge amount of background suspense because of the events going on, by the end second one it was basically all explained.

I played them all in a row many years after they came out, so I have the perspective of someone who didn't wait 1 second between each release. 1 was good for its story and mystery, but flawed, because some of its mechanics were pretty dumb and useless. 2 Was mechanically a better game, but the story was certainly less fulfilling. 3 was also nearly as interesting as 1 to me, but mechanically way better than both the other games. I never even gave 4 a try, cause I saw all the gay and was like no thanks fags.

The first 3 are all perfectly good games for their times.

Y'all lost your minds Mordin alone makes mass effect games top tier for its genre.

That with the call back to “had to be me” good shit.

Just like in any huge corpo they can float a few of these here and there but trust that once the suits get a hold of this shit its not going to stand. A quarter of a billion dollars is a lot of waste, no matter the company big or small. The thing is do they realize the true reason WHY this is happening? I mean a bad game is just a bad game in the end to the suits no matter the reason. Do they really care?

I hope their cuked out/blue hair management is blatantly blaming toxic white males for this. :D:D Maybe then the suits will go..."Wait a second I se the problem here"

I honestly don't think so. It's gonna take a strong leader to come in and just go, "Okay, no more woke shit... We're on the verge of bankruptcy with the amount of woke shit that we've pumped out. It's time to clean house."

And at the top of that chopping block, I'm sorry to say, would be Patrick Weekes. Patrick Weekes included some good dialogue for ME1, ME2, hell, he even created out of whole cloth Tali. He has gone down the woke shithole and was the main writer for DAV. Let him go woke and go broke with his blue and purple hair away from BioWare.

It's a little bit hard to be woke when you're wondering where your next meal is coming from.

Sorta? ME2 had good individual stories, even if the overarching one wasn't amazing.

They really needed a major reveal in near the end of ME3 instead of fart noises for a final boss.

I've said it in numerous other places, ME2 was a character driven story. Don't believe me? Go watch True Detective S1 again, and find the main plot points. I'd bet it'd only take up about 45 minutes.

ME2 is the best ME ever made

Yeah the overarching story is kinda meh-ish but not really.
